Miles Apart : Sequel To One Lucky Bite

05

(miles pov)

"it's obviously a couple cat, we had a funeral"

i was really upset, this whole situation is so fucked. someone is impersonating my dead uncle.

If i didn't have Gwen to comfort me, i'd probably be going crazy right now.

"Miles, don't worry please, we'll figure this out"

"Yeah i know we will"

After i got off the phone with ganke. i started to bawl my eyes out, when i first heard "The Prowler" i thought of my uncle. How he died being the prowler. He knew the risks and he still did it. I miss him a lot.

Me and Gwen approached my parents when we got back home. They weren't to pleased about letting Gwen stay, but they're nice enough folks to let her stay until she finds somewhere else to stay.

Me and gwen were laying on my bed and just enjoying our company. We'd do this alot before she left.

"i wanna see the tattoo again"

i couldn't believe she got a tattoo for us.

she slid down her pants leg.

"I got it about 2 months ago, i knew id be coming back soon"

"you're awesome gwen"

she got up and went over to her suitcase she brought.

she walked back to me with a laminated picture.

when she handed it to me i was in awe. it was the picture i drew of her the first day we met. i couldn't believe she kept it.

"i took this with me everywhere, i mean everywhere"

"i thought this would have been in the garbage by now" i chuckled.

"why would it be? it's a important memory for me"

"shit, almost forgot i got this"

She got back up and brought a wrapped up gift for me.

i opened it and it was a new sketchbook.

"i thought maybe since you've been writing in that for the past 10 months, you'd be running out of pages"

"actually i'm done to my last 20 pages, thank you gwen, i really need this"

i leaned over and gave her a kiss.

i placed the sketchbook down.

"no no no, look inside, first page"

i picked the book back up and open it to the first page.

inside was a polaroid of gwen. she was at a beach in a black and pink bikini smiling at the camera, i love her goofy little gap tooth.

"my cousin took that while i was at myrtle beach"

"ugh, now i got look at you every time i open it to draw"

she punched my shoulder.

"i'm sorry, you know i'm a jokester."

we both sat on the edge of my bed and laughed.

The ringing of my phone made us both jump.

it was Ganke again.

"Ganke man, im kinda doing stuff with gwen right now."

"sorry! this is serious though. The Prowler was spotted going into an old apartment building, ill send you the address"

Ganke hung up the phone and seconds later i received a text.

it was my uncles address...

...

Me and gwen swung to my uncles old apartment building.

"are you sure you wanna do this Miles"

i took a deep breath. my heart was beating a million miles a minute.

"i'm sure, i'm gonna have to face him eventually"

i slid up my uncles window, nostalgia came over me. i remember the times when i'd come here after school.

me and gwen stepped inside the apartment.

it hadn't been rented since my uncle died. i was empty.

"looks like no one's here Miles"

"just wait"

i knew uncle aaron was sneaky, this new prowlers has to be sneaky too.

i went over to the pantry door. I put my hand on the handle but before i could open and familiar figure came flying out the door.

It was the same suit he wore. It can't be him.

Me and this new prowler locked eyes.

he took off running but i chased after him and before he could head at the window i slung him backwards.

He fell to the ground and put his hands up in defeat.

"you are definitely not the old prowler, he would have got back up by now"

"spiderman, i don't mean any harm, i'm just trying to retrieve some of the old prowlers gear, there's suppose to be some here, but there wasn't. i was just leaving when you two came in"

he had that voice effect uncle aaron used.

"sorry to spoil your fun, but who are you working for?"

"i cant, he said he would kill me"

before i could speak i heard a gun shot from across the room, it came from the same pantry id opened minutes before. Me and Gwen rushed off and looked inside the pantry.

it was just a decoy, set up to play that sound.

we turned back around and the new prowler was gone.

"he fucking tricked us" gwen groaned

"well he's definitely way smarter then my uncle, but i swear under that voice effect, that voice was familiar"

the new prowler had to be someone i've interacted with before.

im just glad it wasn't my uncle.

sorry for taking up a couple of days, but here's chapter 5.
