2 New World

Jared's POV

Jared...whose Jared? And why is this pressure on my body not going away? Where am I? Am I really drowning? I started asking myself questions I didn't have the answer to.

"Haaaa" I suddenly felt all the pressure on my chest instantly disappear and I was jolted awake. I immediately sat up straight and opened my mouth wide to take a deep breath.

The relief of taking this breath was nothing I have ever experienced. It felt as if I had just returned back from the doors of hell.

How do I know that I am going to hell you ask? Heh easy...the things I have done in my life won't even let me see the gates of heaven.

I still had my eyes tightly shut as I was afraid what I would see once I open them. Is this what they call fear? It has been a really long time since I was gripped with fear.

"Jared are you alright?" a female voice fell on my ears again. I could easily sense the worry in that voice.

I took in another breath and opened my eyes. I wanted to see my surroundings and try to understand where I am but a soft yet firm hand gripped my cheeks and make me look to the side.

"Aunt M-May?" Words left my mouth as I saw the woman sitting at the edge of my bed. This is the actress that plays aunt may in the new spiderman movies. I don't know her real name but why is she here.

"You are sweating all over Jared. Your viral fever looks serious now?" she said my placing her palm on my forehead.

"What are you....aghhhh" as I was about to ask her I felt a splitting headache which made me grab my head with both hands and lay back on the bed. I controlled my scream and pressed my jaws so as to not let a single sound escape my mouth. I felt as if someone was pouring hot water directly into my brain.

Just as this was happening, I started seeing numerous memories just whizz by through me. All these memories were talking and they were talking at the same time making me feel more pain.

I see myself standing in a cemetary...in front of me are two tombstones. Who are they ? The names...Richard Parker...Mary Parker.

Parker? Do I know any Parkers? As I was thinking that I felt a tug on my sleeve. I looked down to the side and saw a child standing beside me. He looked up with those beady dark brown eyes and asked "Big brother...why are we here? Were are mom and dad?"

I wanted to ask the kid who are you but I felt tears running down my own cheeks. I tried to wipe those tears so that no one could see but I didn't have any control over my body. I realized that this was a memory.

My hands automatically caressed the child's face and pulled him closer to hug my waist as I said "There are gone for a trip like they always do Peter. I am sure they will be back soon."

The little boy just nodded but he was visibly a little sad as if he was starting to understand the situation he was in.

I was about to question more about the memories this memory but then something clicked...Peter...Parker...Aunt May? How is this possible?

"Kids let's go back home? I think its gonna rain." I heard the same female voice and I turned back along with Peter.

This is her...the woman who woke me up...Aunt May.

"Can we get ice cream on the way home Aunt May?" Little peter asked.

"Of course we can." Aunt May who now looked a little younger said and looked at me and said "Let's go Jared."

The memory immediately stopped and many new memories started popping up in my head. I was reliving the life of Jared Parker. The elder brother of Peter Parker. From an older brother who always had his little brother's back to someone who hardly checks up on his kid brother.

After the death of his parents, Jared started to keep himself busy by roaming with his friends, playing video games, and doing other stuff that hardly any included interaction with his family except for breakfast time.

Peter who himself was a nerd also didn't bother Jared much as he found a fatty named Ned. He and Ned would just play on Mary's old computer while Jared had Richard's computer all to himself in his separate room.

I opened my eyes again and realized that I had come back to the present. Aunt May was looking at me as I lay on the bed. I sat up slowly and said "I feel better now Aunt May."

"Feel Better? What do you mean feel better? You are sweating all over and just screamed as you held your head." May said as she moved closer making me move back in reflex.

"I know Aunt May but..." I was saying but she just put the thermometer in my mouth. I was caught off guard by this and just sat there with the thermometer in my mouth not knowing how to respond to this forced love of hers.

After a minute she took out the thermometer. I tried to see what the reading was but she wouldn't let me.

She looked at me with suspicion and then said "Even if your fever is gone now and temperature is normal, you can't go to the beach today with your friends. Just because you are a sophomore in high school doesn't mean you can wander around as you like."

'Peter would be out saving the world when he is my age (15) and I can't go to the beach...' I muttered in protest but Aunt May didn't hear it and she didn't want to.

"I will make some chicken soup. It is almost time for Peter to come from school as well." she said and left the room.

Thank you all for the comments on the 1st chapter. And to summarize it then you want it in detail but every chapter needs a considerable amount of story content so from tomorrow onward, every chapter will be 1500 words.

Soon I will also upload multiple chapters on my P@treon for those who want early access to the chapters.
