"Caught in the Web of the Spider."

"I spent nearly a week stuck in vents and side alley's spying on Bubbles. Razor died last week, so Bubbles had to show the crew he's boss, meaning he had to visit all their houses. I wasn't lucky, he didn't go to the warehouse until he toured half of Queens."

"Do you know those safe houses?"

"Yeah, I even took pictures of the buildings and all the illegal activities inside the place. I emailed it to your law firm's account, my handle is 'GSThelper '."

Matt was quite, he was listening to my heart beat, trying to memorize it so that when he saw me face to face he would know it was me. If he saw me again that is.

"Why are you doing this?" Matt finally asked.

"Because GST is running the streets. They need to be taken out."

"But why you?"

"Why not me?"

"I'm serious."

"So am I."

"You would risk your life, the safety of your family and loved ones, because you wanted to play hero?"

"It may not matter to a blind man, but I am wearing a mask you know," I smirked.

"I'm serious kid. Why?"

"And I'm serious too, why not? People are dying out on the streets, and if I can make a difference, why can't I? Why shouldn't I try to help them? Are only heroes and cops allowed to help?"

"There are adults you are trained too-"

"-Sorry Matt, but from where I'm standing, adults haven't done shit. Every time GST is brought to court either the DA dismissed it, the judge is laks or the evidence is not enough."

I paused before continuing, "I called detective Barnes tonight, poosed as a gangbanger caving in. I told him where to find the warehouse. I suggest you call Foggy up and the two of you go down to the 42nd precinct with the evidence I gave you. Tell them I sent you, well...I mean an anonymous source did."

"And in return?"

"Put them into the ground and make sure they stay there. I gave you enough and more evidence. The police on case is determined and on your side. The only that's against you in the judge, but I doubt any judge in New York would risk their careers to throw down such a solid case."

Matt looked at me, and I don't know what he's thinking but I knew he was at least considering my offer. He sighed, "fine...are you ever going to tell me your name?"

I walked out the window and pulled it open, "I'm Spider-man. I'll see you around Matt," I leapt into the air.

"No!" Matt yelled running to the window just as I shoot my web line and swung away. He heard my cheers of joy as I swung through the air and gasped, "this city get's weirder and weirder everyday."

The next day I turned on TV and waited. May called me to eat breakfast but I put it off. I waited, and waited, and then;

"Breaking news," the anchor lady spoke, "last night police were able to bust a major drug operation in New York. The Grass Stained Thugs, or GST, were a local gang the Eastern parts of Queens, they were known to cause public disturbances, riots and even gang on gang violence. However it had now come to light that the GST were also long suspected to drug peddling, though police couldn't prove it until now.

"Detective Baren, the officer incharge for the raid on GST's drug operation claims he got the information from a tip he received last night from an ex-gang member. He Issued a request for a warrant immediately and soon brought the criminal into justice. In total over a thousand pounds of drugs were found along with weaponry of various kinds.

"The case however doesn't stop there, last night Matt Murdock from Nelson and Murdock, brought evidence concerning the case to light. He claims to have gotten this information from the same ex-gang member who tipped of detective Baren. Murdock and his associate Nelson have been selected by the state to head up prosecution. Stay tuned for an hour to hour update on this case."

I switched off the TV and smiled. Take that bitches! Score one for Spider-man! I brought down a drug ring, made Matt Murdock my buddy and I don't even have a costume! Who's the man? I'm the man!

My good cheer got me through the day. Not even Flash and Harry's constant glares and taunts could get me down. I was king of the world damnit! Heck even MJ noticed something was strange.

It was English period when she tapped me on my shoulder. I turned around and saw MJ and Liz looking at me in concern.

"Peter, ah, are you alright?" MJ asked.

I blinked, "yeah, never better! Why? What's up?"

"Nothing, you just..." she paused, unsure what to say.

"You're acting weirder than usual," Liz stated.

I grinned, "my buddy Marcus lives in the bad part of town, he get into trouble with a local gang there. I heard today that they all got busted last night! So I'm like so glad and stuff," I finished with a grin.

"Ha, I see," the two girls looked at each other and shrugged.

"Alright class settle down," the teacher walked in, "now then, where were we? Oh yes, Oedipus Rex! Can anyone tell me what we have learnt so far? Anyone?" No one meet his gaze, "fine….how about….Harry!"

Harry blinked, "me?"

"Yes, you, can you tell us what happened last to Oedipus Rex?"

"Well I...well, he's like a king. And, ah, he's married to his mom?"

"Yes, very good. Anything else? What about the prophecy made when he was born?"

"Oh, yeah, it said he would like kill his dad and marry his mom."

"Good, and what did his parents do when they heard this?"
