Spider-Man 0X

[Night] [After Dinner]

After dinner, I lay on my bed, going through my memories. And now that I am recalling them, they aren't that fun. But it is what it is, no point living in the past anymore. Since I am in Peter's body, I will make the most out of it.

For starters, kick Flash's ass... Fucker bullied this body too much, but this body is too weak for a fight. So, I will have to wait for the genetic lab tour coming up in three days where a spider will bite me and give me that awesome spidey power. Then, I will kick his ass. Some might say, you got superpower and you are going to beat up a school bully? Why the hell not?! I bet no one gonna miss that asshole.

Besides, I am not Peter Parker... I am not a righteous person like him. I won't sacrifice my happiness just so I can play a hero. Peter Parker can sacrifice himself over and over, he can play a hero, but, me? Not a fucking chance. This time, I will make sure I won't become a pawn for others' stupid plans.

Apart from that there is some weird shit going on. I mean the girls... There is Michelle, Gwen, Mary Jane, Liz Allan, and the list goes on. Everyone is in the same school as this guy. It's as if all the realities have merged to create a mixed world.

But, Liz Allan, huh?

As far as I can recall, Peter has a crush on her, but she is Flash's girlfriend and thinks Peter is a loser. She even ridicules him daily alongside the others. What a bitch! She won't see me coming for her, no.

As a two-time reincarnator from 'Original Earth' I know more or less everything about her and the others. I know how she will blow her relationship with Flash due to her crush on Spider-Man in the future, and then she slowly falls for Peter, but at that point, he loses interest in her and starts dating Betty Brant. Man, this is going to be interesting...

So many girls love Peter Parker. Humm... Now that I think of it... Dang! This lucky bastard! I still remember that comic scene where he and Carol planned a date, but the guy was so broke that Carol took him out on a date instead and paid for everything. Talk about being a loser! What's the point of sacrificing everything and living up to others' expectations when you can't enjoy a good and happy life?

Well, time to get some facts straight. First: get spider power, second: take revenge on the bullies, third: steal Liz from Flash, fourth: master my power and become a selfish hero who will prioritize his own happiness first, fifth: create different custom web shooters and gadgets, sixth: confront that father of mine and dig up info on the group responsible for my death, seventh: kill those motherfucker responsible for my death, eighth: get rich, ninth: get girls, tenth: a happy life with a big harem and maybe join Avengers and go after Carol and Susan.

Yeah, I will adjust them as I go, but that's the plan for now. A big harem ending...

No more hopeless and broke guy who is barely hanging on to life with just scraps... I will not let my aunt or my girls go through any hardships or disappointments...

Well, in the end, it's money, huh?

It always was the thing behind every single problem on 'original earth,' no matter where and when I was, the reality always boils down to it. One can say, 'when everyone's money is equal, there will be no problem,' or 'people's desires are infinite, thus, no matter how much a person gets, it's never going to be enough for them,' but if you think that's true, then why do you go work on a daily basis, why is a billionaire working with their startup?

People are greedy, and this greed never goes away. If it is ever satisfied, then one will become satisfied and will settle down, never trying new things and ending up in a monotonous cycle.

But, hey, as long as you and your family are happy, it doesn't matter, right? But... I can't wait to see Aunt May's face after I win that lottery.

That's enough thinking for now... I need to get a hold of my thoughts. With memories of my past and Peter's memories merged in, my mind feels like a messy junkyard. Sometimes I feel like I can't tell the difference between my old and present lives. I think it will take some time before I get used to it.

I look around me to find a way to divert my attention.

Ah! A puzzle cube!

I started playing with the puzzle cube and quickly finished it. Then I began solving it repeatedly and started doing it faster. I guess it's one of the skills that Peter has subconsciously gotten while messing around with this cube and is slowly improving on it.

As time passes by, my movements became smoother and the speed was increasing slowly as well. I enjoyed this feeling while playing with the puzzle cube...

[Morning]

The chirping of birds woke me up. I stretched my body... The puzzle was lying beside me. I must have fallen asleep while solving it. Oh, crap! Am I late?! What's today's schedule?

I look for the calendar on the study desk beside my bed, then...

Shit! I got to go and deliver newspapers!

I quickly put my clothes on, freshened up a bit, and then I rushed down the stairs.

"Don't rush, Peter, you still have fifteen minutes left..." Aunt May said as she walked to me and gave me two sandwiches, "Ride slowly and eat them along the way"

"Ok, see you later, I am going," I said as I kissed Aunt May on her soft cheeks and went towards the little backyard. There it is, my old cycle that has seen the passage of many decades. I took it out and began to pedal slowly while eating.

This sucks man...

But then a realization washed over me and I stopped in my tracks. Fuck! That was close. Why the hell am I going to deliver newspapers in the freaking morning? I am not Peter Parker, right?! God, it was like an automatic reflex... Anyway, I can't let this job go either way until I win that lottery. This is an alternate reality, so I am not that confident that I will win it...

Fuck!

The freezing breeze bit into my skin, cutting through all the clothes I had on. It was still 5:30 in the morning, and the darkness seemed to stretch on forever, with just a handful of streetlights still on and flickering. I resisted the urge to shut my eyes as I pedaled my bike, feeling the exhaustion from lack of sleep tugging at my awareness. "Just a few more days, Peter..."

I shivered as I folded the newspapers, which felt like slabs of ice in my hands. My fingers were numb from the cold, making it difficult to hold the handlebars. These cheap gloves ain't working. A yawn escaped my mouth, "Seesh! I am done after I get this month's paycheck."

Each house felt like a challenging obstacle course. The occasional slip on the icy walkways made it even more difficult, forcing me to stay alert even when I was exhausted. My eyes were heavy, almost closing with every blink, as tiredness weighed me down.

Each time I had to deliver papers, it felt like forever. All I wanted was to crawl back into my cozy bed. Right now, even in this painful experience, I feel alive. I trudged on, battling the freezing cold against fatigue.

Even in my second life, I am complaining... Hahaha... Responsibilities, huh?

"Don't run away from them... Finish the job you have taken on and have been trusted with... Don't leave anything half done... Hardship is a part of life, the more you endure, the stronger your heart and mind becomes..." Uncle Ben's words echoed in my ears. I quickly shook it off. 

The only relief was a warm breath that fogged up the icy air, telling me that I was still awake, still battling through the frosty dawn. I longed for the time when the last piece of paper would slip from my grasp and I could finally return to the comforts of home. Maybe I will get a nice hug from May after I return home...
