The route to school was familiar, a blur of sidewalks and crosswalks. I cut through an alleyway- a shortcut I'd taken countless times before, despite the uneasy vibe it gave me. I've seen too much in alleyways to feel completely at ease, but desperate times call for desperate measures, right? 

At first, it was fine. I hurdled my bag over the wire fence that bisected the alley and started climbing. But then it hit me- that subtle hum at the back of my skull. My spider-sense.

It started as a whisper, a soft ring of caution. But in seconds, it swelled into a deafening alarm. My hand gripped the top of the fence, my neck craning to glimpse whatever was behind me. Then, before I could process the danger, I felt it-a sharp, familiar sting. 

A taser.

Pain shot through me, and my muscles locked as if every nerve was set ablaze. My thoughts scattered, but one thing remained clear: I freakin hate tasers. 

My body went limp, falling gracelessly to the cold, unforgiving concrete. The world around me dissolved into blackness, the faint echo of footsteps chasing me into unconsciousness.

Along Came A Merc by Celticwolfninja
15 parts Complete
This is the story of the most unlucky Peter/Spiderman in the multiverse and his encounter with a mercenary. Peter Parker was abandoned by parents he never met at a very young age and was raised by his Aunt Mae and her husband Ben who loved him with all their hearts. During a school field trip in middle school, Peter was bitten by a special spider and gained some rather fantastic abilities; such as being able to climb walls, improved/advanced eyesight, shoot webs from his wrists and having super human strength. But his gift only brought him more misery and he was constantly bullied at school. To add insult to injury he was administered the Second Gender Test and presented as an Omega. His Aunt Mae bought him the strongest suppressants she could find so that her nephew wouldn't have to be afraid while Uncle Ben taught him how to fight in self defense. Having been fed up with all of the corruption and crime in his city, he became Spiderman after having dreams of himself swinging around Brooklyn with his webs. With the help of his very intellectual brain he created himself his spider suit and strong fake Alpha pheromones. After three months of being the webslinging hero and saving the city from crooks, he came clean to his Aunt and Uncle who nodded in understanding and only told him to be careful. "With great power comes great responsibility, Peter. Use this to benefit others, not to take advantage of them." During high school, Peter lost his Uncle Ben to a junky crook who shot him in the heart and took all of his money; a year after that, his Aunt Mae passed away with a stroke. Peter was then placed into Child Protective Services but refused to attend school and instead patrols his home town as Spider Man and sleeps on rooftops without every removing his suit. Then a man with a job to collect the bounty on his head crashed into his life. How unlucky could this poor be?
The Weight of Grief by Kale_Kabbage
12 parts Complete Mature
It's almost funny. How grief sneaks up on you. One second, you're fine; you're coping well and then it hits you like a bullet, tearing right through your heart, almost killing you on the spot. Grief is a monster that lies dormant in the darkest quarters of your mind, growing stronger and stronger until you can't fight anymore. Until you can't breathe. Peter was fractured. The monster having grown too big, and without any support left to hold him up, the world of drugs dug its claws into him. And it was slowly killing him, like a sickly sweet poison that dulled the pain while quietly feeding on his soul. He was powerless to stop it. He was too tired to stop it. Tony was doing pretty good. Aside from having died, he was doing pretty good. Resurrected from the dead, check. Thanos dead, check. Wife and daughter thriving, check. He'd never expected to get his life back, that was for sure. He was thankful for the second chance. Unfortunately, Tony was quick to discover that the kid had all but lost his own life. It felt like a knife slowly twisting into his chest every time he saw the kid: in agony. Now Tony wasn't exactly the poster-child for a good emotional support figure, but he wasn't about to sit back and let this continue. No matter how hard the kid fought him, no matter how much resistance he was met with, Tony would help the kid. Still, he couldn't help the fear that laced his blood. Tony couldn't help but question whether he would be able to save Peter from the weight of grief. **NO Starker** Triggers Warnings: Substance Use/Abuse Depressive and/or Suicidal Thoughts/Mentions Rape Threats/Mentions Descriptive Blood/Minimal Gore Some Self-Harm Coarse Language Mental Illness (various) This is a heavier story, so please don't read if you're not comfortable with any of the above triggers.
