The Orphaned Spider

Easter Special

I shake my head, getting my head together. "Yah I'm here. Just thinking about the past. "

They smile sadly. Tony turns his head talking to someone in the background.

"Well, kid we've got to go. Enjoy your day. Go have fun. " Tony sighs.

"Alright bye, guys. I will. "

I hang up and get ready for the day.

I recently improved my web fluid so I need to test it out. But what will I test it out on...

"Friday, open the window, please. "

"Alright, peter. " She replied. The window opened with a slight whir. Leaping out, I attach myself to the building.

This city never fails to amaze me every time. A beautiful landscape of concrete jungle... Wow, does that make me a monkey swinging through New York?

Monkey man, Monkey man. Does whatever a monkey can.

I chuckle lightly at my thoughts.

The blaring sound of police sirens catches my attention.

With a graceful leap, I jump up onto the speeding vehicle.
The window rolls down and I lean towards it.

"What's up officer... McLain! Long time no see! "

The gruff man(with a moostache. And yes,moostache.)looks over to me a moment before focusing back on the road.

"Sprained my back last month. I was out of office. " He shrugged- which caused the car to lurch.

"Oof, so what are we responding to? "

Officer McLain turned serious and spoke. " The grocery store is being robbed by the Easter Bunny. "

I burst out laughing. What an ironic thing. "How can you say that with a serious face?"

He ignores my question.
"He's holding some people hostage- here we are. Can you handle this on your own? "

The car pulled into the parking lot.
"Yah I'll be fine. " I mutter.

Time to do what I do best.

Jumping off the car, I jump to the roof. Quietly I open the fire escape.

The squeaky shouting filled my ears. I sneak closer to the middle of the store.

A person in a bunny suit was forcing things into his bags.
I turn upside down and dangle above him. I gently tap his shoulder.

The bunny jumps and spins around.
"Who's there? " He shouts.

"Uh, I think you're in the wrong aisle. The eggs and candy aisles are over there. " I point behind me.

He growls-can bunny's do that?
I dodge his fists.

"Bad bunny, ow, bad bunny. You should stick to hiding eggs. " I fly back as the bunny kicks me. My back hits the detergent aisle and blows right into the candy aisle.

I groan. "On the bright side, at least my suit will smell good. " The darn detergent was all over me.

The bunny stalks towards me. "You shouldn't have messed with the Easter bunn-" I throw a Bootle at his head.

"Hah! You have terrible aim. " He triumphed as it completely missed him.

"I wasn't trying to hit you. " I smirk.

He takes a step forward and slips in the now open detergent soap. The bunny slides and hits the counter.

I stand up and wipe the slimy substance off. The bunny didn't get up.

"It's an Easter miracle! " I laugh.

The cashier peeked her head up. "Uh, doesn't it go 'it's a Christmas miracle?' "
I roll my eyes.
"Oh, hush. Let me have my moment. " I hush.

The police burst in and take the dazed bunny away.

"What a pity. All that candy. " The manager sighs.

"What do you mean?" I ask, staring at the candy on the floor.

He strokes his beard. "Well, corporate won't let us sell that. What a waste that we have to throw it away. "

I go into deep thought. "Huh"

"Aha!" I exclaim.

"I may have an idea... "

"Aaaaahhahahahaha this is so fun! "

The sounds of children screaming of joy filled the Stark tower.

Oh, this will be a joy to clean up...

Maybe I should explain this.

So earlier I took all the candy to the stark tower. I decided I would make the best Easter fun ever.

So I may have webbed a ginormous obstacle/Funhouse adventure egg hunt.

In the Stark tower.

I also wrote a huge note on a building out of webbing telling everyone to come to have fun at the Stark tower.

So I have about half the kids in New York playing and finding eggs.

A group of parents approached me.
"Thank you so much, spiderman. This will be the best Easter the kids have ever had. " They said.

The smiles were the best thing I could have possibly ever gotten for Easter too. "No need to thank me. Go have fun! This is for all you adults too! "

They walk away, again thanking me.

This Easter may have not been the dream Easter. My family wasn't here. But having my one big family of New York has made it worth it.

I smile at the great thing I've done.

Today was a good day.

Bonus scene

"Peter! What is this giant mess!? " Tony yelled, surveying the mess Stark tower was.

Peter nervously scratched the nape of his neck.

"About that... "

Ayyy! Well, I hope you enjoyed it! Comment if you like it! I like to talk.
