"Hey Peter" Twilight said from the other end of the phone.

"Hey Twi, wassup?" Peter asked, pulling his sleeve down to cover the new suit as he landed on a rooftop.

"Are you busy right now?" she asked in a happy tone.

"No, what d'you need?"

"I'm cashing in that favour you owe me" Twilight said "Y'see, Celestia's making me tag along with the others to congratulate Mayor Maer on winning her second term of service as Mayor of New York, I don't know why she's making me come along specifically and she spouted something about getting to know those in power to make it easier to ask for favours, some well-thought out excuse to con someone with a smile as she often does"

"And you wanna drag me along with you?" Peter asked in a bored expression "Isn't Harry gonna be there?"

"No, he's being taught by his dad about how to be an asshole in the business world" Twilight said "But hopefully a successful asshole so he can make a lot of money and buy me things"

"That's quite a bitchy thing to say Twilight"

"I know, not really thinking straight, just had a glass of my brother's pre-workout stuff to see what the kick was" she said, verbally shrugging it off.

"And?" Peter asked.

"I can feel it Peter" she said.

"Feel what?"

"Everything" she whispered down the phone in an amazed fashion.

"Alright then Twilight, I'll tag along, just to make sure you don't eat someone while you're there" Peter said, hanging up the phone and shaking his head "What even..."

Peter made sure his costume was completely hidden as he walked over to the car where Twilight was standing with everyone else.

"Hey Peter" she said as he got nearer, her face showing no signs of the insanity that was brought on by her experience with pre-workout.

"Hey Twilight" he nodded, looking up at the city hall with a cocked eyebrow "So, this is the spot?"

"No Peter, we're just standing around out here for the hell of it" Twilight answered with an innocent smile.

"Alright, don't be so catty about it" Peter said.

"Sorry, just going through a few aftershocks from the pre-workout" Twilight said, rubbing her eyes and exhaling slowly.

"Why'd you take that stuff anyway?" Peter asked.

"Because Shining bet be ten bucks I'd go crazy if I did" she shrugged.

"And?"

"I now owe my brother ten bucks"

"Fair enough"

"Oh, hi there Peter, when did you show up?" Cadance said as she walked around the car they'd driven in.

"About a minute ago" he answered "Nice to see you too"

"How come you're here?" Cadance asked before holding up a finger "No, wait, lemme guess... Twilight couldn't bring Harry along so she brought you? Am I right?"

"Indeed, so what're we here to do?" Peter asked.

"Pretty much just to tell Mayor Maer that she has our political backing and if she needs anything she can come and talk to us" she shrugged.

"Sounds simple enough" he nodded "Are Luna and Celestia here?"

"Yes, they're already inside" Cadance said "And can you try to be nice to Luna, for just a few minutes please?"

"Only if she-" Peter said before catching himself "Right, you're right, half the time it's my fault... I'll behave, I promise"

With that the three of them walked into the city hall, seeing a large amount of decorative furniture mixed in with ornaments and plaques from previous mayors and public figures that had recognizable accomplishments in their lives and terms in office.

Peter spotted Luna and Celestia talking to the presumably Mayor Maer, a woman in her mid forties with greying hair and thin glasses resting on her nose.

The three of them seemed to be caught in an interesting conversation, this not stopping Luna's eyes glancing to the side to notice Peter, her face becoming sour upon spotting the teen.

Peter ignored the vicious look from Luna, turning back to look at Twilight who'd become preoccupied with several newspaper clippings contained in a glass case.

"Wow, Mayor Maer got to meet Daredevil?" she asked in awe "Tha Mayor without Malice meets the Man without Fear, wow, that's quite a headline"

"Yeah, looks like J.J isn't slandering DD in the article either" Peter growled angrily.

"Don't worry, he'll leave you alone soon enough Peter" Twilight chuckled.

"Leave him alone about what?" Cadance asked, standing closer to the teens than Twilight thought.

The purple-haired teen froze in fear, her mind locking up, whereas Peter's tongue was as slick and as silver as ever.

"I fucked up on an interview with the Fantastic Four a few days back, didn't take any photos while M-J had to do the whole thing without me" he said without faltering once, his lightning fast mind working as quick as ever "He docked my pay and wouldn't stop screaming at me for about three hours afterwards"

"Well, that explains why Mary-Jane was pissed off at you at work for a while, you two made up right?" she asked.

"Yeah, no worries, her seething hate for the Parker line has been quelled for now" Peter nodded.

"For now?" Luna asked from behind them, causing Peter to turn around with a smile.

"And speaking of hate for the Parker line" he said "It's nice to see you Your Majesty, you look lovely today"

Luna crossed her arms and looked Peter up and down with a raised eyebrow, several seconds passing before the Princess spoke.

"Flattery will get you far Parker" she said with a hint of a smile.

"I hope so" Peter said "I think we've been at each other's throats for a little too long now, so I'm willing to behave if you do"

Peter held out his hand to shake, Luna staring at his hand coldly for a second before extending her own and shaking it, both of them squeezing tightly before giving a single pump and breaking contact.

"Now then, forgive me if I seem rude but I'm afraid I must depart" she said to the others as well as Peter "I've other things I must attend to, good day"

They all said goodbye as Luna walked away, stuffing her hands into her long coat pocket before stopping and turning around.

"Oh, and Peter?" she said.

"Yes Your Majesty?" Peter asked.

"I've ordered some thing to be delivered to your house, nothing to worry about, just some items I found in your father's locker that I thought you might be interested in" she answered.

"Why thank you Princess, I look forward to receiving them" Peter nodded.

"Good, I'll send you the bill later" she said, turning around and walking away with a wave "Auf wiedersehen"

"Tschuss" Peter responded.

"A little informal wasn't it Peter?" Cadance asked "Tchuss is a goodbye used among friends, I would hardly call you and Luna friends now, would you?"

"No..." Peter said, stuffing his hands into his pockets with a grin, turning to look at Cadance "But I'm hoping to change that"

"Now my friends" Mayor Maer said, walking over to them as Celestia followed her "Can we begin our talk?"

"Of course Mrs Maer" Cadance nodded, the mayor giving her a handshake before greeting the other teens.

She stopped and looked at Peter, a question on her lips.

"You seem a fit and healthy young man, would you mind running up to my office and asking my assistant to set up my computer?" she asked him with a smile "Please?"

"Not at all Mrs Mayor, I'll be right back" Peter nodded "Where abouts am I looking for?"

"Up the stairs and the farthest door on the right" she said as Peter began to walk off at a brisk pace.

Peter made his way up to the top of the stairs and headed down the right corridor, finding the door he was supposed to enter and knocking on it.

"Come in" a female voice said in a familiar tone.

Peter opened the door and walked inside, the woman in the chair having it turned away from him and looking out of the window.

"Hi, the Mayor sent me to ask you if you could set up her computer" Peter explained "I don't know what for but she seemed excited about-"

The woman in the chair spun around and looked at Peter, the two of them freezing with Peter's sentence falling out of his mouth.

Ignoring the lack of red lipstick, neglecting the black wig she was obviously wearing and most importantly forgetting the lack of a black leather catsuit, the woman sat in front of him was a woman he recognized from his first big run in with the law, his first gang fight and his first time being fooled by a flirtatious fake-out.

"Cat?" he asked in a shocked tone, the green eyed woman staring at him in horror.

"Spider" the Black Cat asked, her eyes looking him up and down before they both blurted out their question.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" they demanded in unison. Next Chapter: Early Warning Estimated time remaining: 4 Hours, 7 Minutes
