Cancicool, you’re suggesting I jump off this building with my mask on put my hands out in the direction of another building like Spider-Man instead of spending a "bring your child to work day" with my mom?
Yes, he replied, it worked for me
Yeah, but did you do it on the tallest building in chile!!!?
Nope but it will work, trust me
I crafted the spiderwebs in science class with the recipe you told me
Good! He said
Yea, but I painted them blue with spray paint, so I do not know if it will work, I said to the mask in my hands.
Lets give it a try.
I took a deep breath, put the mask on and it gained control of my body
Here we go, Cancicool said.
He jumped off, he waited about 2 seconds, he stretched out his arms as a crowd formed below, he closed his eyes and thwiped he opened his eyes with a strong gust of wind and said
It..IT WORKED (playing "Top of the World" or an original song), he started swinging and swaying, he laughed, he smiled, he felt free, like he was home again.

The next day I tried to use the powers, but it didn’t work, I tried and tried but the webs just wouldn’t come out and that's when I came up with a theory.
-So you’re saying if you jump without me, you will not shoot webs? Yes, I replied, I woke up today and tried to use the web shooter but it didn’t work and it didn’t have any clogs either. I took a big jump and thwiped, it didn’t work, I tried again, still nothing, we both panicked, so I put the mask on and he thwiped again, he was confused, it worked, he got stuck on the wall -Impossible he said as he took the mask off.
Do you see what I am talking about? I said
Yes, and why are we slipping? We both looked at my fingers, they were slipping. I screamed and tried to hold on to the edge and my mask, I slipped and we fell. We screamed and I started swimming to reach my mask, I ran along the walls of the building and tried to grab it but we crashed on the floor and I was badly hurt... Hello!!? CRIIS!?!
WE ARE ABOUT TO HIT THE FLOOR!!! Oops sorry Cool, I grabbed him he started swinging I was devastated, it wasn’t me who had the powers it was the mask which is Spider-Man from a universe but if I am not Spider-Man then who is? Maybe this is the universe where Spider-Man doesn’t exist. Cool said maybe, there aren’t even supervillains here, just bank and ATM robbers with guns, I can’t survive a gunshot, I said and thought. Hey, I have a surprise for you, Cool walked me to my room and showed me a drawing of what seemed to be him, and he was holding a piece of damaged newspaper, I have a theory since I came alive with it, who's to say the drawing will not? Wouldn’t that just make the tablet come alive? I don’t know, lets find out. Cool said as he put the paper on the drawing, we waited and waited and waited, this is stupid I said. Yeah lets just go, we left the room and then 2 blue arms came out of the screen.
