"Oh, you scared the hell out of me, kid!" sighed Peter, in relief, as he hugged his protege.
"SM," she said, releasing from the hug. "I'm fine."
"But how would I have known that?" asked her mentor. "What's the number one rule of splitting up?"
Spider-Girl just sighed and hung her masked head in shame.
"Sorry, that's not the answer. You should've said-"
"I know," she groaned, in dismay. "Keep your coms on and always be ready to respond."
"That's right," nodded the original wall-crawler. "Hey, you've gotta get home. It's a school night, remember?"
"Crap, you're right," realized Spider-Girl, before looking back at Peter. "Hey, isn't tonight your date night, with Lauren?"
"That it is!" said a shocked Spider-Man, as he jumped up and swung away. "Get back home!"
"Ok, will do."
Before she could leave, however, Dani's spider-sense went off. Turning around, she looked over to see a young man, who was around her age, about to be hit by a car. Without thinking twice, Spider-Girl jumped into the air, before grabbing the guy.
"Don't worry!" she told him, once he was in her free arm. "I've got you!"
When they landed on a nearby sidewalk, the young man and Dani's eyes met... Well, the young man's eyes met Dani's lenses.
"H- hi," he said, in shock.
"Hi," responded Spider-Girl, while she put out her gloved hand, without breaking eye contact. "I'm Spider-Girl."
"Emmyn... Emmyn Calleiro," the young man responded, shaking Spider-Girl's hand.
