[BT] Ludlow’s Garage.

[Before Transition]

"I didn't expect to be seeing you again tonight.. I guess what they say is true, when it rains it pours." Officer Cole just sighs and puts away his notebook, I guess I have caused quite a bit of trouble for him tonight. First he has to deal with Uncle Bens shooting and then he has to come over here so I can report the vandalisation of my car, I guess he is only frustrated because he has a lot of paperwork to do now because of this. I have just finished reporting this incident to him and I guess he was a bit tired as he didn't ask a lot of follow up questions which was fine with me, I'm just glad he didn't ask why my car wasn't stolen and was just vandalised because I wouldn't know how to answer that one.

"Yeah.. Sorry for dragging you back out here again, I guess I'm making a lot of paperwork for you to do right? It's just you told me to call you if I had any problems and well, this is kinda a big problem for me.." I am trying to establish a friendship with this man, after all it doesn't hurt to have friends in the department as it could come in handy. It's like in Breaking Bad, Walter White would have been caught out, captured and maybe even killed if it wasn't for his brother-in-law Hank Schrader who unwittingly kept feeding him information that helped Walt escape law enforcement as well as stay alive. I'm not saying I'm going to start wearing a black pork pie hat and a pair of black wayfarer sunglasses and start cooking out of a ratty RV with my sidekick Peter Parker who keeps shouting SCIENCE BITCH! It would just be another avenue of getting information, maybe hear something interesting every once in a while, maybe get some favours.

Officer Cole just waves me off. "It's fine kid, this is the reason I gave you the card after all. I just didn't expect for you to have to use it so soon, I guess crime in New York is really getting worse lately and guys like Iron Man and the Fantastic Four are too busy protecting the earth from all kinds of crazy shit that the guys on the ground floor are starting to get a little brazen. So kid, what are you gonna do now? Do you need a ride or do you want me to call a tow truck for you?" Officer Cole will be real happy soon, I have it on good authority that a certain web slinging menace will start to make this neighbourhood friendly again.

"It's fine Kevin, I called a tow truck while I was waiting for you to arrive and it should be arriving soon so you can get going. Hey.. Uh before you go.. Did you catch that.. That carjacker from earlier?" I ask him, it has been around half an hour to an hour since the incident ended and I'm guessing that Peter should have catched up with the thief by now and I'm really hoping that everything went the way it should, if not I'm going to be worrying about all the different outcomes that could result from this.

He stops at the door of his car after pulling it open and turns around to look at me. "Hmm.. Ah right.. That guy. Yeah we cornered him in an abandoned building after a while and we had him surrounded, strangest thing is though.. A few minutes after we had him surrounded he fell out of the window and to his death, most of us choked it up to a suicide and that the guy was at the end of his rope and had nowhere to go though a few of the guys who were there swear that he fell out of the window backwards and that there was a red silhouette standing in the window where he fell from. We searched the building but there was no one there so those guys must've seen a trick of the light, anyway I'm glad it was resolved and that old man got some justice." He begins to get into his car and starts to close the door.

He rolls down his window and pokes his head out to leave me with some parting words. "The bastard died on impact, fell on his neck but I heard that his right side and specifically his right arm was shattered from the fall. Just goes to show that crime doesn't pay, what goes around comes around. Remember that kid, see ya later..." His patrol car shoots of down the street and slowly fades out of sight but not without leaving me without some thoughts, mostly relieve. I am truly glad that this is the way the Spider-Man of this universes origin story goes, if it was the one that ended with a heart attack the damage that had happened to his right side would come under suspicion and they would definitely question me, the last known person to have any contact with the man. I'm lucky that the cameras on the street we were on we're in a state of disrepair so they didn't capture the incident, chalk one up to the corrupt government stooges who take the money that was meant to fix those cameras into their own pockets.

Well I guess all that's left to do now is wait for that tow truck to arrive, this is just the type of situation that time wasting apps on your phone were made for.

Well the tow truck came and I payed him to take it to a nearby mechanics that would open in the morning, this garage actually had a bit of fame as it was once featured in a magazine, it is called Ludlow's Garage. Apparently Johnny Storm once came here to pose for a model photographer while doing some mechanic work, he supposedly liked the place so much that he ended up spending quite a bit of his time there fixing up and repairing cars. This was my plan all along, I parked my car here to get vandalised as it was close to Ludlow's Garage and now it would be taken to the garage and I would have to go there tomorrow to sort everything out, coincidently Johnny Storm would also be there to do some work on some cars. Johnny frequents the place so much and so consistently that someone could hypothetically take note of all the times he has worked there and manage to figure out a pattern to his appearances that coincides with the rest of his daily life.

I'm not a stalker, it is only stalking if you are doing it on the gender you like and I most certainly do not like males. At least I think that's what stalking means, ah who cares.

Now I've just got to call Earl to come and pick me up.. Hopefully he doesn't get angry about the car, he was quite fond of it...
