Aiden Blake walked through the bustling streets of Queens, his hands tucked into the pockets of his jacket. Today was the start of his final year at Midtown High. One last year, and then he could finally focus on the bigger picture—protecting the world, starting his own organization, and laying the foundation for the future he had envisioned.
But for now, he was just a high school student.
Aiden's eyes flickered toward the rooftops. Hidden in the shadows, he sensed several figures keeping a close watch on him.
'SHIELD again... they really aren't going to stop, huh?'
A year ago, he had confronted a few of their agents in an alley, thinking they were threats. Only after a brief but violent altercation did they reveal their affiliation. He had complained to his father, Jason , but apparently, this surveillance came from a different sector—one that even his dad had no control over.
"Just ignore them, son," his father had told him. "And promise me you won't kill any of them."
Aiden had agreed. Begrudgingly.
Still, their constant presence annoyed him. He had no interest in whatever they were plotting, and he sure as hell didn't want to hear some speech about the "Avengers Initiative" or any other nonsense.
'I swear, if HE shows up trying to recruit me…'
Aiden sighed and shook his head, refocusing on the day ahead.
Midtown High was exactly as he expected—loud, chaotic, and full of students who had no idea what real danger looked like.
Classes were uneventful. Aiden breezed through them, smarter than most of the kids around him but careful not to stand out too much. He mostly kept to himself, going through the motions.
At least, that was the plan.
The moment he stepped into the hallway between periods, he heard the familiar sounds of trouble—laughter, taunting, and a voice pleading for something to be returned.
"Hey, give it back! Please! I have to go to class!"
A group of teens were tossing a backpack between them, playing keep-away as a smaller boy ran back and forth, desperately trying to retrieve it.
"You gotta be faster than that, loser!" one of the bullies sneered.
Aiden watched for a second before stepping in. The backpack flew toward another bully—only to be caught midair by him.
The hallway fell silent.
Aiden turned to the victim, holding the bag out. "You should watch your stuff better. Don't make yourself an easy target."
The bullied kid hesitated before quickly grabbing it. "Th-thanks…"
One of the bullies stepped forward, puffing out his chest. "Well, well, well. What do we have here? Some kind of hero?" He started circling Aiden, cracking his knuckles. "Look, everyone! The new kid thinks he's a big damn hero!"
The bully threw a punch.
Aiden caught his wrist effortlessly, his grip tightening like a vice. The bully's confidence shattered in an instant as he struggled to pull away.
"It's not so funny when the opponent is stronger, is it?" Aiden said, his voice calm.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, he twisted the bully's arm back—forcing him to punch himself in the face.
PaW! PaW! PaW!
Three hits, and then Aiden let him go. The bully stumbled back, dazed, before collapsing onto the floor.
Aiden turned to the others. "Anyone else want to taste their own fist?"
They quickly grabbed their friend and ran off without another word.
The bullied kid adjusted his glasses, staring at Aiden in awe. "Whoa… I never thought I'd see someone school Flash like that…"
Aiden glanced toward the retreating bullies before turning back. "You should do something about it yourself. It's not wise to let people push you around."
The kid sighed. "Yeah… you're right…"
Aiden could tell he was still feeling down, so he patted his shoulder. "Don't beat yourself up. Just looking out for you."
The kid gave him a small smile. "Thanks. What's your name again?"
"Aiden. Aiden Blake. You?"
*Triiiiing*
The school bell rang loudly.
"Oh, crap! I'm late for class!" The kid grabbed his backpack and sprinted down the hall. "Nice to meet you, Aiden! I'm Peter...Peter Parker!"
Aiden froze.
His brain registered the name, but it took him a second to process it.
'Peter... Fucking...Parker?'
His eyes followed the retreating boy as realization settled in.
'Shit. I should have realized..... I totally forgot… This is Queens. Of course, I'd meet Peter Parker....That scrawny kid was SpiderMan.'
Before he could dwell on it any further, a voice interrupted his thoughts.
"You lost, new kid?"
Aiden turned.
Standing behind him was a girl. Blonde hair tied back in a loose ponytail, bright blue eyes, and an air of confidence that immediately set her apart from the others.
"Oh… yeah, kinda," Aiden admitted "Know where chemistry class is?I Think that's where I'm supposed to be next."
"Perfect. Cause that's where I'm heading.... Looks like we're classmates." She held out her hand. "I'm Gwen..... Gwen Stacy."
Aiden's eyes widened again.
'What..... The..... Fuck...'
Gwen tilted her head, amused. "Are you just gonna stare, or…?"
Aiden quickly snapped out of it and took her hand, shaking it. "Aiden....Aiden Blake. Sorry, I was… mesmerized."
Gwen blinked before a light blush crept onto her face. "Damn… you're straightforward."
Aiden smirked. "Can't help it. You're beautiful."
Gwen's blush deepened, but she played it off with a chuckle. "Well, you look mesmerizing yourself, Aiden."
Considering his natural charm, that wasn't surprising. With his Charm Stat at 24, he practically looked like a supermodel.
"Thanks," Aiden said smoothly. "So… class?"
Gwen blinked, still a little flustered, before shaking it off. "Yeah! Right! Follow me!"
As Aiden walked beside her, he couldn't help but sigh internally.
'Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy… This year is going to be… interesting.'
