Chapter 1 - Spider man is Done!!.

Gwen No!!! 

Peter!!! 

Boom!!!! 

This for my father Peter!!! you will pay for what you did, and guess what?? your aunt is Next!!! 

"I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling of my room. Another nightmare." Nothing new."

Peter got up from his bed tiredly and went to the bathroom. Peter washed his face and looked at his reflection in the mirror. Peter had a handsome face, brown eyes and black hair.

Peter went to the kitchen of their apartment after finishing his morning routine. "Good morning May." Peter greeted his aunt and sat at the dining table which was filled with different foods.

"Good morning Peter, how was your night?"

"Good, I think so?" Peter shrugged and started eating French bread. May sighed and sat in front of Peter and held his hand.

"Hey, hey, look at me Peter."

Peter looked at his aunt. May Parker. May had a beautiful face. She had blue eyes, black hair, a small nose, thin eyebrows and perfect lips.

She looked beautiful and young even though she was 36 years old. May held Peter's hand and looked into his eyes. "New city, new life and new people. Okay? Don't think about the past so much, dear."

Peter looked at his aunt and said, " don't think about the past." "don't think about the past". Peter repeated in a low voice, his eyes filling with tears, he looked at his aunt and said in a broken voice,

"May, I lost Gwen!!, I lost all my friends!!, Eddie and Harry became my worst enemies!!, and Harry, he, he killed Gwen!!! Because I killed his father and, and..."

Peter stood up nervously and said, "I've become a killer, May, and everyone who gets near me dies!!. First, Captain Stacy , and now Gwen!!!! It's me, it's me...".

"Hey!!, hey!!."

May stood up quickly and hugged Peter and patted his head. "It's not your fault, Peter. It never was. You saved me and the lives of so many Pepole, and the whole city, many times!!! If you weren't here, millions of people would have died!!! May said to Peter in an encouraging voice.

But Peter trembled with Fear and shock in his eyes.

"Peter, Peter!!! Look at me."

May grabbed Peter's face with her both hands and looked into his eyes and said in a reassuring voice, "You don't have to be a hero anymore, Peter. You've been doing this since two years!!. You don't have to be the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man anymore. You can just be you!!".

May blinked as she finished speaking and wiped the tears from Peter's face and said in a gentle yet firm voice, "Now why don't you wipe your tears and we go for a walk together? How does that sound?".

Peter hesitated and said, "Sounds good, Aunt May.

"Excellent!!" May jumped up excitedly and clapped her hands and said, "Because Paris is a very big and beautiful city and has a lot of tourist attractions!!! Now let's finish breakfast and we'll go see one of the Seven Wonders of the World!!!".

Peter looked at his aunt's excitement and a slight smile spread across his lips. He grabbed the fork and spoon and started his day with a French breakfast.

Peter and May finished breakfast and started exploring the city. They first went to the Champs-Élysées, one of the most famous streets in the world, lined with luxury shops, cafes and restaurants.

How did Peter find the experience? Well, it was like going shopping with your mom or sisters, but worse. Much worse. May bought a lot of clothes and expensive items, and this time she didn't have to worry about the cost.

Why? Because the famous Anthony Stark gave her a credit card on his company's account, so May would no longer have to work or worry about the cost of living in Paris, as she could withdraw and debit the card as much as she wanted.

Tony gave the card to May because he felt he was to blame for what had happened to Peter over the past year. Peter had fought numerous criminal organizations and supervillains such as the Lizard, the Falcon, Rhino, Scorpion, Marco the Sandman, Doctor Octopus, the Green Goblin and many others, and there was no Tony or the Avengers there to help him because of the civil war that had happened between them and Captain America and his team.

Peter was alone protecting New York from the mind-bending assassins.

And when Peter lost his girlfriend, Tony arrived at the scene, but unfortunately he was too late.

He found Peter critically injured, clutching the body of his beloved Gwen Stacy, crying loudly and screaming in pain.

Tony blamed himself and kept thinking that it was his fault for leaving a fourteen-year-old teenageer to deal with all this madness alone.

He should have supported him and been with him to defeat crime, but the problem was Tony had his own problems.

He discovered that his parents had been killed, and his friend and comrade in arms, Steve Roger, knew who the killer was and didn't tell him the truth.

He also protected the killer under the pretext that he was his friend!! After a brutal and fierce battle to avenge his family, Tony failed and was defeated by Captain America and the Winter Soldier.

After this nonsense he was subjected to, Tony isolated himself from the entire world and remained alone in his mansion, spending his time only developing his suits. This isolation led to his obliviousness to what his dear student was doing in New York.

Anyway, May happily completed her shopping and started dragging poor Peter around every store she saw. Peter's hands were full of bags and purses.

'Thank God I have superpowers, i can't imagine if i didn't! When will this torture end!!!' Peter thought anxiously and looked at his aunt with a tense expression, praying that she would finish shopping.

When May finished shopping (two hours later), they went back to their apartment to put down the bags and then went to one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Eiffel Tower!!

"Wow!!"

Peter opened his mouth and looked at the tower in amazement. The Eiffel Tower (French: Tour Eiffel) is an iron tower with a height of 324 meters, located in Paris, in the far northwest of the Champ-de-Mars Park, near the River Seine.

It was built by Gustave Eiffel and his assistants on the occasion of the International Exhibition of Paris. Construction began on January 28, 1887, and was completed in two years, two months, and five days (1887-1889). It was opened to the public on May 15, 1889. [1] Named the 300-meter tower upon its opening, this structure has become a symbol of the French capital and its number one tourist attraction.

It is also the most visited landmark, with 7 million visitors annually. At 313.2 meters, the Eiffel Tower remained the tallest landmark in the world for 41 years. Its height has been increased several times with the installation of numerous antennas, reaching a height of 327 meters as of March 8, 2011.

It was used in many scientific experiments in the past, and today it is used for radio and television broadcasts.

"Come on, Peter, let's go to the top of the tower!!" May shouted excitedly at her nephew. Peter raised his hands nervously and said, "Wait, May, can we go up there?"

May laughed loudly and said, "Of course, you idiot!!. I bought the tickets especially for this occasion. Now let's go!". May grabbed Peter's hand and pulled him behind her.

Peter looked at his aunt who was pulling him excitedly and pointing to the Eiffel Tower, explaining how they could climb to the top and smiling a warm smile.

'Thank you, May. I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here. I wish Uncle Ben was with us.' When Peter thought of his uncle, his expression changed to sadness and then to a depressed expression when he remembered that he was the reason for his death and that his aunt didn't know about it.

'I wonder what her reaction would be when she learned the truth behind her husband's death'.

Peter thought with deep sadness and self-blame. May stopped when she saw Peter's expression.

"Peter, what's wrong? Is something bothering you?"

"No, no. Everything's fine, May. Now let's go to the top of the Eiffel Tower." Peter hide his sadness and shouted excitedly, jumping in the air and setting off towards the tower.

Some tourists saw Peter's excitement and laughed with joy and shook their heads with a smile.

"Wait for me, Peter!! I have the tickets, you idiot!!" May laughed with joy and shook her head and followed Peter with a motherly smile and intense love.

Peter and May stayed in the tower and took some beautiful souvenir photos.

Then they descended from the tower and went to the River Seine and Notre-Dame Cathedral.

The River Seine is a major river in northern France, stretching approximately 777 kilometers. It originates in the region of Dey and flows into the Canal du Manche. The river has been an important historical hub for transportation and trade since Roman times, passing through prominent landmarks in Paris such as Notre-Dame Cathedral and the Eiffel Tower.

The river is a popular tourist destination, where visitors can enjoy boat trips and walks along its banks, as well as beautiful bridges that cross it, such as the Pont Alexandre III. Surrounded by stunning natural scenery, the river is a symbol of Paris and an integral part of the city's identity.

Notre-Dame de Paris is a Carthaginian Catholic cathedral and the seat of the Archdiocese of Paris. It is located on the eastern side of the Île de la Cité on the Seine River in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, in the historic heart of Paris. The cathedral is one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.

It distinguishes itself from the ancient Romanesque style with its innovative use of rib vaulting and flying buttresses, its enormous and colorful rose windows, and the realistic and abundant sculptural decorations.

Key components of Notre Dame include its grand historic organ and its enormous church bells. Peter and his aunt enjoyed the sights so much that Paris was truly a beautiful and historic city!!!.

And they hadn't even visited half of the city's sights yet!!! Peter and May stopped at a certain restaurant on a street to have their lunch as half the day had already passed.

Peter and May sat down at one of Paris' most famous restaurants, Le Cinq, a Michelin-starred restaurant that serves classic French cuisine with a modern twist. Peter ordered foie gras.

Foie gras, or goose liver, is a French delicacy. Foie gras is a popular and well-known dish in French cuisine. Its flavor is described as rich and smooth. Foie gras can be served as a complete dish or as a side dish to another dish (such as steak).

French law states that "foie gras belongs to the cultural heritage and is a protected food of France."

May ordered boeuf bourguignon, a beef dish slow-cooked in red wine with vegetables.

Boeuf bourguignon also contains onions, carrots, mushrooms, and garlic, with a bouquet of thyme, parsley, and bay leaves.

Peter and May thoroughly enjoyed the food, as they lived in Queens, one of the poorest neighborhoods in New York City, and were not accustomed to fine and expensive food.

When they finished, they headed to their final destination for the day, the Musée d'Orsay.

The Musée d'Orsay is a famous art museum located in Paris, France, inside a former train station on the banks of the River Seine.

The museum opened in 1986 to display French art from 1848 to 1914. It is renowned for its extensive collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works, including paintings by masters such as Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, and Edgar Degas.

The museum retains much of the station's original architecture, including its grand clock, adding a unique atmosphere to the visitor experience. The museum attracts millions of visitors annually and offers tours and workshops to enhance the cultural experience.

Opening hours at the museum were daily except Mondays, from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Admission fees started at €16 for adults. Children under 18 were free. When they entered, they were amazed by the number of artworks on display.

The Musée d'Orsay in Paris houses many famous pieces of art, most notably Edouard Manet's "Luncheon sur l'Herbe," François Pomponne's "The Polar Bear," Pierre-Auguste Renoir's "Le Moulin de la Galette," and Gustave Courbet's "The Origin of the World."

The museum also houses a large collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings, including works by Monet, Degas, Cézanne, and Van Gogh.

Peter and May stayed at the museum until 5 p.m. and left smiling and very much amused.

 "Okay Peter, how was your day? Did you enjoy it?" May asked Peter with a beautiful smile.

Peter looked at his aunt and said, "It was a lovely time, Aunt May. Thank you so much."

May frowned and said to Peter, "Peter, you don't have to thank me. You know, I'm not doing you any favors." She walked over and grabbed Peter's shoulder and said, "This is what a family should do, to support each other in times of sadness and hardship. And you, my little boy, are the son I never birth. Always remember that, Peter."

Peter felt so warm in his chest after May had just told him that he was like a son to her.

Tears filled his eyes and he ran to his aunt and gave him a tight hug. He said, "You are like a mother to me, May. I love you so much." May returned the hug and patted Peter's head and said, "I love you too."

She then walked away and took her phone and said, "Let's go to our last stop!!" Peter was surprised and said, "I thought you said the museum was our last stop".

"Yes, I changed my mind. I was hearing about a famous ice cream seller for lovers. Isn't it beautiful that Paris is really the capital of love if there is an ice cream seller specialized for lovers."

"Okay" Peter said slowly then said "but we are not lovers May why would we go to him?" May laughed at Peter's reply and shook her head in surprise and said "of course we are not you idiot!!! You don't have to be in love to try Andrey's ice cream!! And also I want to try his ice cream because many people said it was very delicious!!".

Peter sighed and then his aunt dragged him to a bus stop and they went to the River Seine again and when they arrived there was no Andrey or ice cream May sighed angrily and said "where is he??".

Peter shrugged and said "I don't know I just arrived in Paris yesterday".

"ha ha very funny Peter" May rolled his eyes and answered Peter then she grabbed her phone and started scrolling through it.

"Now it says lovers website Paris love blog".

"website of what...??" Peter opened his mouth and was about to make fun of the ridiculous name of the website but he shut up when May raised her hand and said

"don't interrupt me darling now the lovers website of the Paris love blog says that Andre doesn't have a fixed location and he roams a lot in Paris but he is always around the Seine River around 5 to 6 pm that means if we split up and each of us looked in a different direction we might find him and buy ice cream!!".

May closed her phone and grabbed Peter's shoulder and pointed east of the Seine River "now you go from there and I'll go the other way and then we should find him!!!".

Peter sighed and said "May do we really have to do this??".

"Of course, now come on move!!" May patted Peter's shoulder and took off in the west direction of the Seine River.

Peter sighed helplessly and went east, and at the same time Peter was thinking about how his simple life had been turned upside down by a radioactive spider bite.

gasp* gasp*

Peter heard a girl's voice crying?? Peter turned towards the source of the sound then he found a girl sitting on a bank she was crying hard and putting her hands on her face.

Peter hesitated a little then went to her and patted her shoulder "hello are you okay??".

The girl was silent for a while then turned to Peter slowly the girl had beautiful features she had an asian and european face at the same time she had blue eyes like the ocean and black hair like the night she looked like she had a mixed race.

Peter pointed to the floor she was sitting on and asked her "can I sit??".

the girl nodded a little then made room for Peter to sit next to her Peter looked at the girl and scratched his head and said

"Okay do you understand English??". The girl nodded slowly but didn't speak.

"Okay" Peter started slowly and said "I saw you crying a little while ago is everything okay?? What's bothering you so much??".

The girl bit her lip and looked down, not speaking.

"You know, sometimes really bad things happen to us in life, and sometimes we go through really hard and difficult times that make us sad and angry?". Peter looked ahead, then shrugged and continue, "This is a normal thing in the life at the end of the day. Stumbling in life, and feeling sad is an integral part of growing as a person, and that is what makes us human."

Peter turned to the girl and smiled, "It is true that I am a complete stranger to you, and I have no right to interfere in what does not concern me, but I can help you and give you advice... that is, if you want, of course."

The girl looked at Peter and said in a low voice, "I... I was tricked by the boy I love. He pretended to give me a box with a gift inside, but when I opened the box, it was full of spiders and insects."

Peter was silent and waited for her to finish. The girl gasped a little, then continued, "And there was the mayor's daughter, Chloe Bourgeois."

The girl said the name with hatred and malice, then continued. "Chloe is a girl who takes advantage of her family situation as the daughter of the mayor of Paris. She treats Everyone badly and she is an arrogant, conceited, narcissistic girl and she has been bullying me for three years now, and she agreed with the boy I liked to trick me to recorded a video of me when i open the box and when the bugs crawled on me and I scream and fell into the pool."

"And she did that she succeeded of making fun of me and recorded that video like she was planning and that's not even the worst part."

"The worst part is that Chloe recorded everything and was about to post it online if it wasn't for my friend intervening at the right time".

"My friend kicked Chloe's phone in the air and broke it and then Chloe used her influence as the mayor's daughter on our school principal and the principal then expelled my friend from school completely!!".

The girl screamed in the last part sadly and angrily then she cried and hugged her knees and said in a sad voice "now we are in the middle of the school year and the other schools won't accept any students and now my friend can't complete this semester because of me!!!".

The girl cried hard as she finished her story.

 'she blames herself because someone dear to her got hurt. I know this feeling very well', Peter thought as he now looked at the girl who was crying hard.

Peter patted her shoulder. The girl turned and looked at Peter with tearful eyes.

Peter looked into her eyes and said, "I really understand you, and I've been through this kind of situation more than you can imagine."

Peter looked straight ahead as he remembered the people who died and suffered because of him, then he turned to the girl.

"But it wasn't your fault. None of what happened was your fault. The fault lies with that spoiled girl and the stupid boy who doesn't deserve your love".

"They are the reason for your sadness, not you. And as for your friend?? She did the right thing even though she knows the consequences very well, and I'm sure she doesn't regret saving you from becoming a joke to people on social media".

"You have a truly amazing friend, and you should follow in her footsteps."

Now, wipe your tears, pull yourself together, learn from this situation, and turn it into fuel that will fuel your strength and self-confidence!!!".

Peter stood up and extended his hand to the girl. The girl hesitated but took Peter's hand. Peter gently lifted her from the ground. The girl stood in front of Peter and looked at him in amazement.

Peter smiled and said, "Guess what? I'm going to give you advice a wise person once gave it to me".

"When you can't control what happens to you, you can control how you respond to it. That's where your Power is".

"Now you couldn't control what happened to you, but you can control how you respond to it by becoming stronger and not allowing anyone to bully you again. Learn from this situation and don't allow it to happen again so that your friend's sacrifice won't be in vain".

"And whatever happens to you?? Be strong. Better days will come."

The girl nodded her head resolutely and her mood improved a lot.

"Come on, Parisians. Andre has brought you new flavors of love!!"

Peter and the girl heard a sound then they saw an ice cream cart driven by a fat man with a long beard.

"t was Andre whom May was desperately looking for and by chance Peter found him without breaking a sweat.

Peter turned to the girl and said "now how about some ice cream on my account? Do you want some?".

The girl nodded slightly Peter smiled and turned around and was about to go to Andre's cart but he stopped when he felt the girl hold his hand.

Peter turned to her, and the girl lowered her eyes and looked down, and her cheeks reddened a little and said "thank you so much, talking to you has helped me feel so much better."

Peter smiled a big smile and gave hir his thumb up and said "No problem I'm glad that i helped you. By the way I don't know your name yet".

The girl looked at Peter and smiled and said "My name is Marinette Dupain-Cheng".

"Marinette" Peter said the name on his tongue then smiled and said "What a beautiful name let me introduce myself my name is Peter Benjamin Parker nice to meet you Marinette".

Marinette laughed and said "The pleasure is mine Peter, now let's go to Andre this is must be your first time right??".

"Yes actually I'm not from Paris I came yesterday from New York"

"From New York?? Wow!! tell me Peter how was your first day in Paris??".

"It was amazing!! My aunt May made sure I enjoy this day as much as possible she took me to several famous tourist places in Paris. by the way your city is really beautiful!!".

"I know right??!! I've been here since I was born and I haven't gotten tired of it for a single day!". 

Marinette and Peter talked happily as they went to the ice cream seller.

Andre looked at them and said "What do we have here, a new couple??"

Marinette and Peter froze, their faces reddening, and said nervously and in unison, "We're not together!!."

Marinette and Peter looked at each other and then at Andre who was laughing at them.

Andre smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if you're not a couple, you'll become one when you eat my magic ice cream!!"

"The blueberry for her eyes, the pistachio brown for his, and the dark cocoa for their love!!".

Peter sighed, and Marinette laughed at his tired expression.

After several attempts to pay for the ice cream to no avail, because Andre insisted that it was free because it was their first ice cream as a couple even though Peter and Marinette were consistently saying they are not together but Andre was completely convinced that they will become one and his Ice cream always makes the wonders.

"I can't believe this guy, I'll never buy an ice cream from him again!!!" Peter gasped indignantly at Andre's attitude.

Peter looked at the ice cream in his hand. It was a single piece, and the flavors were placed in a cup made of frozen chocolate. There were two spoons on each side for the couple to share.

Peter shook his head and thought, "What a city obsessed with love and romance!!"

Peter and Marinette sat in the same place they were sitting a few minutes ago. They shared ice cream, talked and laughed happily.

When they finished, Marinette gave Peter her phone number to communicate with them.

"Bye Peter, I will call you to take you on a tour around Paris!!"

Marinette waved her hand and quickly went home. Peter waved back and prayed that she wasn't talking seriously, as the tour his aunt was giving him around Paris was enough for him.

Peter sighed and thought that he had been sighing a lot lately and had become less cheerful than before and, he is become more serious.

Peter turned around and was about to go buy his aunt another ice cream, but he found May in front of him looking at him with a mischievous smile as if she had caught him red-handed.

Peter sighed and said, "It's not as it looks like."

May tilted her head and smiled and said, "Really?" So tell me, Peter, how is it look like to talking to a girl so happily and then she gives you her phone number and says goodbye happily with a beautiful smile?".

May was getting on Peter's nerves about Marinette, an Peter was trying to defend himself but to no avail and when they finished talking and bought another ice cream from Andre and went to their apartment.

The night fell down and they had a home-cooked dinner and the day finally came to an end.

Peter went to his room in his pajamas and jumped on his bed and started staring at the ceiling "I really enjoyed today with with may and made a new friend"

Peter got up and went to the window and opened it the night breeze blew on his face and Peter closed his eyes and inhaled the cold night air of Paris.

Peter opened his eyes and looked at the city that was bustling with life and the people who were walking in the streets then he went to a certain drawer in his room and opened it and took out his special costume mask.

Peter grabbed the mask tightly and put the mask back inside the drawer.

'well new city new life new people and most importantly a new beginning'.

Peter smiled as he went to the window and looked outside.

"There are no super villains here trying to kill me constantly and that means I can live freely finally".

Peter looked at the night sky full of stars and thought.

"Spider-Man is done!!!".
