I'm back

So did ya miss me...

I wasn't able to upload last weekend cuz I had no choice but to study for my AP chemistry test that was Monday and my AP lit that was today so to celebrate my passing the lit and bombing the chem I figured I'd post a chapter.

Before we begin

Whose better

The Lich (Adventure time)

or

Voldemort (Harry Potter)

-------------

James had spent the next week training his abilities and growing them. He experimented with his powers in as many unique ways that he could think of like releasing electricity through his web lines to make a pseudo taser or blasting a wave of telekinetic force at the point of contact at a punch. The week was fruitful for most of his abilities except one.

For some reason no matter how much he tried he just couldn't seem to trigger his spider-sense. He had even tried putting his life in danger to activate it but for some reason, it just didn't work which was very concerning as James knew how vital spider sense is to fighting. As an untrained combatant James doesn't have the natural field awareness and skill to control a battlefield and accurately dodge attacks coming at him from every angle, so he was betting on the spider-sense to supplement his weak martial arts.

James decided for the moment he needed to just push past that and focus on other things like the fact that over the past week, his school has tried contacting him every day. James grew more and more annoyed with the incessant pestering and messages until he got a message from his principal saying that if he doesn't return to school within the next week then they are reaching out to his guardian and doing a welfare check.

James obviously not wanting people snooping through his temporary base of operations figured it'd be easier to go back to school.

So after a week of absence, James was awakened by the sound of a piercing alarm that dragged him from his peaceful sleep into the barely illuminated morning. He dragged himself out of bed and walked outside to his coffee maker turned it on and walked into the bathroom. He turned the shower on and took a quick 10-minute cold shower to really make himself alert and focused. He walked into his bedroom and picked out his outfit of the day which consisted of a plain white shirt black cargo pants and a varsity jacket with the crispest pair of white forces (Air Force 1's)

{I don't know shit about fashion but I think that fit goes kinda hard whatchu think}

Once he gets dressed he walked outside grabbed a cup of coffee and downed it before making his way out.

James stands once again at the threshold of Midtown taking in the scenery before he's interrupted by someone.

"Excuse me are you new here?" the slightly high-pitched voice of Liz Allen spoke as she approached James.

James turned to her confused "Who me?" he said as he pointed to himself

Liz giggled in an exaggerated way "Of course you who else would I be talking to".

"Well I'm not new and I know who you Liz Allen so if you could do me a favor and leave I'd appreciate that" James responded in a cool neutral voice.

Liz was taken aback at his rudeness and disinterest and was about to snap back at him but James simply walked off figuring that it would be better to leave than to deal with someone like her.

James walked into midtown for the first time every step oozing confidence as many of the students turn their heads and question others hushed about who the new guy was. The halls were filled with theories and gossip on who the new guy was, though the students in first-period algebra would get the inside scoop first.

The portly slightly balding Caucasian algebra teacher stood in front of the class a slight scowl on his as he watched the students talk and chat instead of sitting respectfully and attentively. He missed the days when he taught at golden grove prep an academy where students respected authority and acted with grace and dignity. Nevertheless, he had a roll call and a lesson.

"Okay, students when you hear your name say here or present to indicate your name"

"Devin Peterson"

"Here!"

"Rochelle Davies"

"Here!"

"Michael Warner"

"Here!"

"Ty Brooks"

"Here!"

"James Oliver"

"Here!"

The man looked at his paper and then looked at the person responding to the name of one of his students. The James Oliver he knew was a very gloomy kid who kept to himself and never really tried too hard in his class

"Look kid maybe it's your first day and you think it's funny to mess with the teacher, I can promise you that messing around and making stupid jokes is going to make your time here at Midtown very difficult"

James was surprised at how upset the man got by him simply responding to his name.

James nevertheless responded cooly "I know it's been a while but I just decided to get a haircut, I figure it was time since the bangs were so long they blocked my entire face, I can promise you that I am the same guy I was a week ago" James even pulled out his school ID to prove that he was the same guy.

Once he got the proof he needed the algebra teacher got off the topic and focused on teaching. Though many of the female students were captivated by James and his new attractiveness especially Liz Allen much to the annoyance of Flash Thompson who was already planning on showing James exactly where he belonged.

Class finished in a flash and the students were slowly filtering out of the class and into the hallway. James was surrounded by a group of girls whose questions flew out like bullets and seemed endless, even as James tried to escape the questions they simply followed him into the hall seemingly intent on extracting every secret they could from him.

He did manage to fight off and few and escape when he was shoulder checked by Flash Thompson. James could feel the power Flash put into the nudge and he figured that his first day was as good a day as any to show Flash that he shouldn't mess with a real new york n*gga.

James checked Flash and actually pushed him to the ground.

"What the hell was that freak? you coulda killed me"

"Don't be such a little bitch, Don't tell me the great Flash Thompson is a tity milk-drinking baby"

The crowd that formed in the hall erupted in laughter

Flash's face got red as he stood up and clenched his fists tight. James saw that and knew that any second he would throw the first punch. James reached into his back pocket and grabbed his iPhone 1 and started filming Flash as the halls filled with mocking laughter

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! I'll kick all your asses" Flash cried angered at the mocking laughter of the crowd. He stood there shaking as they continued to mock him as well as throw insults at him.

He turned to face James who was smiling and laughing moving his fingers around as though he was conducting the insults.

Flash swung at James with full force managing to clock him right on his jay and even made him stagger back. For a second the crowd goes silent as they watch the ringleader of this possibly being knocked out when James stands back up smiling without even a scratch.

"Now it's self-defense Stupid!" James cried as he ran right up to Flash and kneed him in the face. Flash fell back ad the hall and heard a nasty crunch-like sound. Flash fell on the ground holding his bleeding nose screaming in pain when security guards come in a take both of them to the principal's office.

"Can you tell me why you attacked Mr. Thompson, Mr. Oliver?" the principal questioned in a snake-like and condescending tone. Flash sat in the corner of the office his chair adjacent to the principal's desk with a bloody smile on his face.

"I did nothing wrong, I merely acted to protect myself and the multiple videos recorded show him hitting me first"

"But you proved him and because of that you are in the wrong entirely, so I'm going to have to call your guardian to come to an agreement with Mr. Thompson's family".

James grits his teeth at the idea but had no real reason to reject all he hopes is that his aunt is still his aunt

That's it for this chapter come back next time for more.

Important notice for this book is that peter parker is not gonna end up with MJ, especially after the new Zeb Wells stuff I just feel like I don't like her character enough to try and bring her into my universe so either Peter stays with Betty Brandt or he ends up with an OC but not MJ.
