SPIDER-MAN?!

Walking out of the train, Lucas our main character, left the train after an hour to travel back to London. Even though living in London isn't cheap, both his and his mother's efforts allow them to live a life where they would end up having to get a loan if prices rise.

Lucas was a 5ft3 skinny kid, with pale skin, brown eyes, and brown hair reaching his shoulders. Relatively he is a joyful, optimistic child who believes almost everyone deserves a second chance and was easy to describe as a yes man at times. He reads comics with his friend at times and enjoys building contraptions his friend wants.

However, after walking out of the train station he sat on a bench next to a park and looked down. He realized half an hour he saw a window. Like those manga.

"What the fuck." Was all he muttered and was staring at a Blue screen and a very significant Red SPIDER logo in the middle of it. And white letters speaking to him.

[Hello Lucas, I am a system created by the world's remaining MANA to help combat current and future threats as Spider-Man.

I would prefer you pick as soon as you can as the system is currently merging with you. And if you don't pick the merging will affect you horribly.

Pick a Spider-Man:

Tobey

Andrew

Tom

]

Looking at this Lucas didn't understand how the people were, as he grew from birth to now poor. So he knew Spider-Man but didn't know why there were 3 of them. Eventually, he wanted to press the first one but it instinctually confirmed it.

[Thank you for picking. By picking Tobey you gain 4 benefits; Spider-Climb, Spider-Sense, Web-Production, and Tobey Spider Suit.

Before you begin swinging let me explain the basics as I will not be able to communicate unless you can find some way to talk again. 

First, you have a [Menu] which allows you to see; [Status], [Skills], [Storage], and [Spin Wheel]. And before you ask, yes it was on purpose the straight S's.

Second, [Status] is obvious, [Skills] however is to show your current skills. However, if you are in the process of learning a skill then a progress bar will appear to say the %, and if you don't continue increasing the progress bar then it'll start decreasing by 10% every week. However, gaining back the progress will be 50% faster.

Third, [Storage] stores 100 of any 1 thing and the amount of that 1 thing max is 50, and if the max is reached then a new space must be used. However, you can not carry anything bigger than you like a couch, table, or door. However, you can grab things like barrels, chairs, or Weapons.

Fourth, [Spin Wheel] has a monthly spin where you spin every month, The birthday spin is obvious, Accomplishment spin is when the user has made an Achievement like fighting a gang without getting touched.

Now you may ask one question.

]

"Stingy but okay." After a while of looking up, he asked.

"Why me?"

[Because, unlike others, you are the last human on this Earth with the ability to use magic. This makes it so that the system can mold your MANA to make your body pass limiters set by God.]

Reading this confused him and he wanted to ask more questions but stayed silent knowing it would never be answered.

Eventually, he moved into a more hidden area of the park and opened this [Menu].

[Status]

[Skills]

[Storage]

[Spin Wheel]-!

Getting curious he wanted the [Spin Wheel] to open.

[Spin Wheel]

 

Month-x

Birthday-x

Accomplishment-!

{Accepted the Accomplishment Wheel, your Accomplishment was successfully merging with the system.}

[Ding! You have gained 4 points, look at [Status].]

{Status has been picked.}

[Status]

 

Level: 0 [0/100]

 

Power: 250kg

Strength: 100 kg

Speed: 25mph

Durability: 15

Intelligence: 7 / 70IQ

 

Points: 4

Looking at this almost made him spit blood,

"I'm so strong!" Was all he could think. Calming down he got curious about what each stat did, but 1 thing itched him. He had such low intelligence so he pushed all points to it making it 11, and almost instantly he felt like he was processing things slightly more quickly and that he could understand some of the things going on.

So he smirked thinking he did good, until he heard a sudden cry from a bit away. Looking behind a tree he saw a little girl getting comforted by her siblings, friends? Not sure but he could tell they were around 10 years old and they were a group of 7, 2 girls and 5 boys. But what he sore was that they were kind of upset, Looking up he saw a football in the tree.

At first, he wanted to just go and grab it but stopped and looked at his [Storage] and smiled.

<Random Pov>

Looking at my little sister cry at her football in the tree made me sad, as today was her birthday and that ball was supposed to help her practice her dream.

So as a big brother, I ran to the tree and started climbing it.

"Wait, George! What are you doing?!" Hearing this I look at the noise to see my Mother, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, white-skinned woman. It countered my Black hair, black eye, and dark-skinned boy. It made us look like an adopted family if it wasn't for my African-American Father.

"I'm grabbing Emi's ball!" I yelled continuing to climb.

"No! Come down, we can ask for your Father!" At this point, my hand was grazing the ball until.

SNAP!

Falling straight down I closed my eyes only hearing gasps and yells, when I suddenly bounced back up. Reopening my eyes I see a white string on my leg and then see a man in Red and Blue slowly descend on another string with the football in hand.

"Hey, kid." He spook,

"Spider-Man!" I screamed, getting the others jumping from excitement. Suddenly I slowly descend with him until we land on the floor. My Mother suddenly hugged me,

"You stupid child!" Even though my Mother insulted me I understood immediately that it was my fault for making her so mad.

"Thank you Spider-Man." my little spoke as he gave her the ball,

"No problem." He said waving. My Mother then grabbed his hand.

"Thank you so much! I got so scared." 

<Spider-Man Pov>

Looking at this lady almost cried I let a smile escape and responded,

"It is no problem Mrs. After all I am the Neighborhood Spider-Man." Patting my chest with confidence, she just smiled at this and then a kid grabbed my leg.

"Spider-Man can you play with us!" It was the boy George, which I had caught. Putting my finger to my chin I thought about the time and responded.

"I can play for an hour at most, then I must go save the day!" 

The kids started running away excitedly, looking at the woman I spoke to.."If you don't mind I got some kids to entertain." I jogged after them.

After jogging for a bit I saw the kids sitting near a tree and as I started walking to them, the system popped up with a message.
