——————————————

After running for almost five minutes, Peter spotted the tail end of a black Escalade driving in front of him. Thankfully, there weren't any turns up until this portion of the road, so finding them was easy.

Since the road is surrounded by woods on both sides, Peter diverted into the woods for cover. Expertly avoiding trees and branches, Peter parkours through the woods and easily catches up to the two Escalades. Since the windows were tinted completely black, he couldn't see inside and relied on his hearing to assess the situation.

Hearing only small talk and the sound of a radio from the leading car, Peter moved on to the secondary Escalade and instantly frowns.

Coming from the back seat, Peter could hear the crying and whimpering of little girls as another voice, probably their mother, consoles them in hushed whispers.

From the front seat, he could hear the woman's voice from the phone complaining about the crying children.

"If you don't shut those little gremlins up, I'll do it myself, and trust me you won't like how I get it done..." As she says this, Peter hears the cocking of a gun. "I'm already annoyed with that stupid bug, Spider-Man. I don't need to deal with crying children too."

"It's okay, girls. You need to calm down, okay? Mommy's here. Don't worry." The mother repeats words like this until the children slowly start to simmer down.

"Finally..." The woman in the passenger seat says in exasperation, holstering her gun.

Taking this chance, Peter shoots webs into the wheel wells of each vehicle, causing both cars to come to a screeching halt in the center of the road.

As the cars are still slowing to a halt, Peter kicks off of a thick tree and launches himself at the second car. Turning himself sideways mid-air with his body as straight as a pencil, Peter torpedos feet first into the passenger side window of the Escalade.

Slipping inside of the car amongst shattered glass, Peter misses the woman in the passenger seat as his feet bash into the driver's skull, either knocking him out or killing him. Peter wasn't sure.

"Ahh!" The family of three in the backseat scream in fright.

"Huh?!" The female passenger grunts in shock as Spider-Man appears in her lap out of nowhere.

Reaching for her gun, Peter acts quicker and webs her moving hand to the passenger side door.

With the driver's head stopping his momentum, Peter kicks off the driver's side door, launching himself outside the passenger side door. As he lands on his feet, Peter yanks open the door, pulling the woman out of the car as her hand was stuck to the door.

After immobilizing her with a couple of web shots, Peter moved swiftly to the other car, where men dressed as FBI agents were stepping out with guns drawn. 2 had pistols while the other two were toting what looked like mini-uzi's.

Not wanting to risk the lives of the mother and her children, Peter swiftly draws the fake FBI agent's attention away from the other car. Shooting a web to the trees, he yanks on it and launches himself into the woods.

As Peter soars into the forest, the gunmen open fire on the easy red and blue target. Though no bullets hit him and Peter instantly hid in the woods. Using the trees as cover and keeping himself out of sight.

As the gunfire stops, Peter shows himself for a fraction of a second and shoots a web at a nearby shooter and pulls it roughly.

"Ahh!" The unlucky gunman screams as he's pulled into the tree line, disappearing from his accomplice's vision.

The screaming continues for a brief moment before it completely dies and silence returns to the road.

"Give up and I won't do to you what I did to this guy!" Peter yells to the three remaining people.

The guy was alive as he still needed to be interrogated by the police, but Peter made it look and sound like their friend met a terrible fate.

"F*ck you!" One of them yells and starts shooting into the trees randomly.

"Alright, I warned you!" Peter yells as he portals to the woods on the opposite side of the road. Leaping out of the trees, Peter shot one web from each hand toward two of the gunmen's heads.

Landing between them, Peter yanks them together causing the two to smash their skulls together and fall to the ground unconscious. The last gunman turns around and sees Spider-Man standing right behind him.

"How..." He says as Peter karate chops him on the forehead, knocking the guy out cold as he collapses on the road.

Separating the guns from the criminals, Peter then webs the sleeping assailants to some nearby trees. He wouldn't want to block the road any more than it already is after all.

As he finished with the front car, Peter started hearing sirens from down the road where the checkpoint was. Returning to the second Escalade, Peter saw the woman from the phone call wiggling in her cocoon of web, trying her best to break free.

"Stop that." Peter says as he walks past her toward the driver.

Pulling the door open, Peter sighed as he found the man still alive and breathing. He thought he may have killed him there for a second.

'Jonah would love to report that...' Peter thought in annoyance.

"Hello, You three can come out now." Peter calls out to the back seat as he pulls the unconscious driver out. "I'm just cleaning up for the police. They'll be here soon."

Peter drags the knocked-out driver to the woods, where he webs him to a nearby tree as well.

Returning to the street, Peter sees cop cars in the distance and the family of three standing outside the black Escalade. They kept their distance from the woman webbed to the ground though.

"Mommy, it was Spider-Man!" The youngest daughter exclaims to her mother.

"I saw it too. He looked just like on the TV!" The older daughter matches her sister's excitement.

"Hey, are you three hurt anywhere?" Peter asks as he walks back to the street.

"No, we're fine." The mother says, still slightly guarding her children.

"That's good. The cops will be here soon and then you can go home. Though they'll probably have questions for you." Peter explains as he starts to hear a helicopter nearby as well.

"Umm, thank you." The mother says as her guarded demeanor loosens the closer the cop cars get.

"You're welcome." Peter says, feeling a little awkward about what happened to the fourth member of their family. "Do you know about..."

"My husband? Yeah..." She says sadly.

Even her children became sad upon hearing their conversation. Their earlier excited attitude upon seeing Spider-Man disappeared.

"I'm sorry." Peter apologized.

"It's not your fault." The mother replies genuinely. "Thank you for trying and saving all of those people."

"It's what I do." Peter says with a shrug. "Sadly, I get the occasional day like this though."

"You can't save everyone." The mother mutters as the police cars arrive.

"Yeah, I know. I try my best though." Peter says as the cops come running over.

Usually, Peter would leave by this point, but this situation has taught him that sometimes he'll need to work with the police or other law enforcement agencies.

Just having access to the manpower alone is enough to sway Peter towards working with the police more. He would have had a much harder time finding the woman on the phone if he didn't have their help today.

As the police cordoned off the area, questioned the mother, and brought the criminals into custody, Peter hung around and gave his testimony to them. The first step to a good relationship is communication after all.

Another reason to form a good relationship with the police is that it would be less likely for them to label him as a vigilante. They haven't done so yet, but that doesn't mean it will never happen. Just one J Jonah Jameson fan in a high position and Spider-Man can easily be marked as a criminal vigilante.

While helping out the police, the helicopter Peter heard earlier arrives and slowly lands on the open road. As the doors open, out walks a man in a black suit. He's a white man with a receding hairline. Peter recognized him instantly.

'Phil Coulson?' Peter thought as the man himself walks in his direction.

[Insert picture of Phil Coulson here]

"Sir, who are you?" A line of policemen stops Phil before he can get into the scene.

"Phil Coulson, I'm here on behalf of The Bureau of Counterterrorism." Coulson says as he shows his credentials.

"Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division? Never heard of it." A policeman mutters and showed the badge to his fellow officers. "You ever heard of this?"

No one knew, which caused Coulson to be barred from entering the crime scene. Though that didn't last for long.

After Coulson stepped away to make a quick phone call, the radios of every police officer went off. The higher-ups were pissed and told them that Phil Coulson was now in charge of the whole situation, so they had to follow his orders.

"I'm sorry, sir!" The lead officer says as he welcomes Coulson past the barriers and crime scene tape.

"It's alright." Phil says as he strolls in. "Keep the area secure."

"Yes, sir." The officer replies.

Ignoring everything else around him, Coulson walks right up to Spider-Man. Although Shield would've gotten involved in this situation, either way, seeing Spider-Man involved made them act much quicker.

That swift action paid off too, as an agent of Shield is about to make contact with a possible member of the Avengers Initiative.

"Hello." Coulson greeted.
