Listen,"[/b][/color] I sigh as I break the silence between us, [color=ec008c][b]"I've had about my fill of fire for one...lifetime after this past week. If you're here to fight, can we just skip to the part where I web you up and hand you over to the authorities. I'm not sure I've got all that much in me for a real fight right now."[/b][/color][/quote][img]https://i.imgur.com/ZfvPPwT.png[/img][/center][b]Manhattan, New York[/b]

[color=#ffffff]Johnny's heart had sunk in his chest when he spotted her swinging towards him. The mask was the same but the similarities ended there. Whoever was beneath this cowl was almost certainly not Peter Parker – in fact, it was pretty clear that whoever was beneath it was a woman. From the way she moved and the sound of her voice, she was young too. College student? No, maybe younger still, Johnny thought as he remembered that Peter had started as a high school student.[/color]

[color=#ea9999]"I'm not here for a fight,"[/color][color=#ffffff] Johnny said with a heavy sigh.[/color][color=#ea9999] "Why do these things always have to start with a fight?"[/color]

[color=#ffffff]Storm glanced over his shoulder at the waning Spider-Man symbol he had created and then exhaled through his nose. He didn't even know where to begin to explain. He wasn't even sure that he should – but he was screwed no matter what happened, or at least he would be once Maria Hill got her hands on him, so he figured there was no point holding back.[/color]

[color=#ffffff]Johnny scanned the woman's costume as he tried to deduce her name. [/color][color=#ea9999]"Let me guess, you must be [i]Arachne[/i] or [i]Silk[/i] or something?"[/color]

[color=#ffffff]Before she had a chance to answer him, Johnny slunk down to the edge of the ledge of the building he was stood on. His legs dangled over the side and he laid back, fingers locked behind his head as a makeshift cushion.[/color]

[color=#ea9999]"Whoever you are, you're [i]definitely[/i] not the guy that I was looking for – but if you're wearing that mask, I guess you're the closest thing this world has to him. So you might as well take a seat."[/color]

[color=#ffffff]The young woman didn't budge.[/color]

[color=#ea9999]"Go ahead,"[/color][color=#ffffff] Johnny gestured nonchalantly at the space on the roof beside him. [/color][color=#ea9999]"Do I look like a radioactive spider? I'm not going to bite, kid."[/color]
