Location: New York, Midtown High School
Timeline: August 26, 1947
Time: 9 AM in the Morning
As I left the classroom and entered the hallway, the familiar smell of cleaning supplies mixed with the sound of students talking as they walked by. I walked faster, my steps making a loud noise on the tiled floor. The bathroom was close by, just around the corner, so I sped up, wanting to arrive before the break finished.
Pushing the door open, I stepped into the bathroom. The fluorescent lights buzzed softly overhead, and I could hear the sound of water running from the sinks. The bathroom was empty, a nice change from the busy hallways outside. I picked a stall towards the back, glad for the chance to have some privacy.
As I sat down, my mind started to wander, thoughts floating around like leaves in the wind. The day had been long, full of classes and work, and I was glad for this moment alone. It was a chance to relax, to gather my thoughts before diving back into the busy school day. "Now that I'm here, I could check my inventory in my Spiderman system," I thought to myself.
Lost in my own thoughts, I didn't notice the sound of footsteps approaching until it was too late. The door creaked open my heart racing. Looking through the gap in the stall door
For a moment, I considered staying silent, hoping they would leave without noticing me. But then a familiar voice broke the silence, calling out to me from across the room.
"Hey, you in here?"
It was Mark, my friend from earlier. Relief washed over me as I realized It was Mark. With a sigh, I called back, "Yeah, I'm here. What's up?"
As Mark chuckled, his voice echoing off the tiled walls, I could hear the pee splashing in the toilet nearby. It took me a moment to realize he was talking to me while he was still peeing.
"Just making sure you didn't fall in or something," he said, his words mixing with the sound of his pee hitting the toilet water. "You were in such a rush to get here."
I couldn't help but snicker at the absurdity of the situation. Here we were, just chatting like it was no big deal, while we both took care of business. It was kind of funny, in a weird way. It was moments like these that made me grateful for the camaraderie we shared.
I shook my head, smiling at his joke. Leave it to Mark to find humor in any situation. But despite the weirdness of it all, I was grateful for his easygoing nature.

"Anyway, don't take too long," Mark said, zipping up his pants. "We've got another class to get to."
I nodded, promising to hurry. As Mark washed his hands and left the bathroom, I took a deep breath, feeling oddly relieved. Now it was time to check my inventory in my Spider-Man system.
"System, show me my inventory," I said in my thoughts.
"Affirmative, Host" the AI system responded promptly, its voice clear and concise.
In an instant, a holographic display materialized before me, presenting my inventory in a format that was easy to comprehend. Glancing over the list, I quickly took note of each item.

These are the things I obtained from the quest I completed. There's Still more stuff to be found, But I'm content with what I have see for now and so I don't need to continue scrolling. With that, I washed my hands under the running water, making sure they were clean before heading to my next class
.......
Meanwhile, in a hidden spot on the school grounds, Jord, planning with his henchman to cause an explosion to the school order by his boss.
"We need to make sure the bombs are planted discreetly in the school. Stay hidden and ensure that nobody finds out," Jord commanded, his voice low but filled with authority.
His henchmen glanced at one another before a sturdy figure stepped forward, his face marked by a prominent scar.
We're set, boss," he replied confidently. "We'll plant the explosives in strategic locations around the school as you suggested Sir," said the henchmen marked by a prominent scar. "Now, we can maximize the damage without being detected."
Then he continued confidently said "Everything's in place, just like you wanted."
Jord nodded, a satisfied smirk playing on his lips. "Excellent," he murmured, his eyes reflecting determination. "Today, we act. And nothing will stop us."

School
As I was chatting with Emily and Chris in our class about the new burger shop, Mark, my best friend, couldn't resist joining in on the conversation.
"Oh man, I promise you guys, when you take a bite of those burgers, it's like an angel doing the cha-cha on your taste buds! Pure bliss, I tell ya!" Mark exclaimed with his usual comedic gimmick.
Emily giggled, shaking her head. "Babe, you make it sound like we're about to taste the food of the gods or something."
I couldn't help but laugh at his exaggerated description. "Mark, are you auditioning to be the spokesperson for the burger joint now?"
Chris nodded in agreement, adding, "Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about burgers with such passion before."
Mark grinned, unabashed. "Well, you know me, always passionate about good food."
We all shared a laugh, enjoying the lighthearted moment suddenly my spider"s tingling then an explosion erupted in the school
When the explosion hit the school, everything went crazy. People were screaming and running around trying to get away as smoke filled the hallways.
The suddenness of the blast caught everyone off guard, including me and my friends. As the explosion tore through the school, "What's going on?" thoughts to myself
"Stay calm, everyone! Head for the exits!" Teacher Dan, our Math teacher, urged, his voice firm and commanding despite the chaos.
Teacher Dan, whose last name was Camello, was a 34-year-old math teacher with a distinctive appearance. He was half bald, with hair only on his left side, while the right side of his head was completely bald.
Emily grabbed Mark's arm, her eyes wide with fear. "Mark, what's happening? Is this some kind of attack?" she asked, her voice trembling.
I shook my head, my mind racing as I tried to make sense of the situation. "We don't know, Emily. But we have to leave, now!" I said urgently. Mark looked just as scared as Emily, too overwhelmed to reply. He was focused on finding a way for us to get out safely.
Chris grabbed my right arm; his expression is serious. "We need to find a way" he said, his voice determined.
I agreed, scanning the chaotic scene for any signs of danger. "Let's stick together and help out," I told my friends, as we moved through the corridors filled with smoke.
As we moved through the chaos, I couldn't help but wonder: who would do this? And why here? It felt like there was something really bad happening, and I knew I had to figure it out and keep everyone safe. Being Spider-Man and just regular old Michael Wilson, it was up to me to find out what was going on and make sure my friends were okay.
