Too little to worry, too smart to handle

Part two of a Mcu series that I have no idea of where it’s headed!

A/N: Just have fun with this xD might be the calm before the storm.. we’ll see!

—-

School was a pain. This was probably something everyone could relate to. If it wasn't the teachers, it was the students, and if it weren't those bullies it was the subjects.

Lockers opened and closed in Midtowns halls as Students grabbed their things for the coming classes.... And Peter was in the middle of it all. Great. His issue with school? Bullies.

"Guess what?"

A mutter of a voice he knew all to well came from behind him, making him grin almost invoulentary as he grabbed his textbook. "What?" he mused, turning around to the male with black hair and a blue shirt on, the guys eyes shimmering with delight. "I got the new lego set!" he hissed. "Oh? how many pieces?" Peter asked, matching his friend's exitement as he leaned slightly forth to gauge Ned's reaction. Ned hummed "Guess." Peter huffed and closed his locker "That is like almost impossible to guess! They just brought out so many huge sets!" Ned sniggered at the theatrics his friend pulled by throwing his arms aroudn. He nudged his friends arm "Yeah, but they made a new Aveners set~" he sang lightly making Peter stare at him in disbelief "You got that?" he grinned, muttering through his glee as he rushed to join his friend who was already walking away.

Ned proudly placed his hands on his hips "Sure, who do you think I am?" he sniggered making Peter scoff and lean towards him "Oh I don't know Ned, my best friend?" Ned grinned "yeah, and a master collector" Peter rolled his eyes at the smugness his friend had responded with, yet the smile stayed glued to his face. "You're annoying!" Peter growled with a quick drill to his friends sides. Ned laughed at the playful gesture and put his hands up in silent defeat. Peter grinned and shook his head but nodded after anyways, signalling his best friend that he was indeed safe.

Ned hummed after a few seconds of silence as they passed the school information board. "Who do you think will win?" he muttered, refrencing to the tests they took which were rumored to be Stark internship tests. Peter shook his head, eyeing it "I don't know," it was the truth, the AcaDec team was full of bright minds.. he didn't want to say it aloud but he was slightly nervous about the final decision. Afterall, if it was true this was most likely not about to be just one round of tests. He was sure Mister Stark would take the three best ones and let them compete against one another. . . Peter got broken out of his thoughts when he bumped into someone, a soft thud was heard, signalling someone dropping something "Ah, Apologies!" he winced and crouched down to the female who had her brown-wavy hair open.

"Ah, Don't worry, I didn't look where i was going either." she said lightly and looked over at peter. His brown-doe eyes scanned the ground for anything else before handing the book and files to her. "thank you." she nodded and took a step back.

Peter nodded "No problem." he hummed, only now seeing that the girl was a seemingly young adult. She wore a dark green shirt and black trousers that reached to clean boots. Her face was adorned with a pair of small-rimmed golden glasses, not completely round, yet they didn't have real corners either. She could've been one of their seniors, yet he's never seen her around. Before he could profile her any longer the girl nodded "Take care- I kinda have to go" she nodded, pointing into the direction of the hallway and promptlyrushed off.

Ned raised an eyebrow "I've never seen her around." he muttered, joining Peters side. Peter hummed in thought "Me neither." Another girl with brown curly hair joned them "who was that?" Ned looked over at her "That's a good question." he shurgged. Peter hummed and shrugged it off as well. "Maybe the Seniors got a new student?" he guessed and turned to the hallway which lead to their class. "Let's get to class before Mister Harrington gets there."

Ned groaned "Yeah, lets.." MJ smirked at the bummed out male and lead the way.

Peter dropped his backpack by his seat and Ned placed his next to him. The class was already full, chatting loudly and through the bell. A specific boy sniggered and turned around, his group of three also looking Peters way. A low groan already bubbled up in his throat... Flash and his goons, his bully and the most annoying in the class. Before Flash could say anything however Harrington walked in "ALRIGHT EVERYONE SETTLE DOWN WE HAVE A LOT TO TALK ABOUT!" he yelled over the talking. The doors fell shut and classes started.

One video of the webslinger after the other played on the screen pressed up against the wall. From fan interactions to fighting criminals, and yet there was no hint to where he usually ran around, anything would be great at that point, yet nothing got them a connection to a place.

Clint eyed Natasha who was staring almost blankly at the collection of Spiderman clips. Not far was Bucky who was seated on the couch, by his side, Sam. Tony stood somewhere in the back. Truth was, it was a simple believe of theirs that Spiderman had been a teenager, but his voice in the clips said everything. He hadn't even completely gone through his voice change.. hell he was still voice-cracking every second video- thats how young he was! ....he was a lot younger then they had imagined.

The genius stared at the screen, Fury wanted the kid for, to them, unknown reasons. He knew S.H.I.E.L.D. would most likely take him into confinement if he didnt cooperate, like showing his face or tell them and show them everything that had changed on him. A soft groan fell from his lips and he held the bridge of his nose.

Clint hummed "Getting a headache?" Tony scoffed at the light hearted question "something along those lines." he grumbled.

Sam hummed and stretched, "Anyone want some snacks?" "Oooo good idea" Clint nodded and Natasha hummed "Just grab a bit of erverything please." Sam nodded and walked off.

Once out of the room Bucky eyed them "he's a child"

The statement hung in the room for quite awhile until Clint spoke up "Think we can win him over?" Natasha eyed him "Whats your plan?" Clint shurgged "You know Fury." he hummed and adjusted his position on the couch "He'll take the kid in and will want every little detail about him" he said, voicing Tony's worries. "If we have him here under supervision he'll drop it because he's part of the team, just how it was with Bucky" he explained, nodding at the man.

Natasha hummed "He was friends with Rodgers." "hm, maybe but what if the kid's our friend?" Tony muttered, making them look over at him. "We don't even know the kid's whereabouts" Natasha frowned "And we'll need to be very careful."

Tony snapped his fingers in thought, there had to be a way. Fury was as fierce as their enemies when it came down to it, not a place for a mere child to be. "I'll figure something out, until then not a word to Rodgers or Fury." the assassins raised their eyebrows, how loose-lipped did he think they were? "Yep." Natasha hummed lightly and turned back to the screen.

Just then Steve and Sam walked back in "So, anything?" he asked making the others shake their heads. "Reports, Sightings, all different places." Bucky soothened, "Nothing specific about the spider." Steve frowned but nodded "And that informant?" Bucky shook his head "nothing." Natasha stood and walked to Stark "It seems like she doesn't even exist." she hummed, looking at the screens, noticing something loading before Tony made the screen vanish.

Steve groaned "This is going to be so much harder then I thought.."

Tony sniggered "We are after people who have been on the field for awhile longer." he looked at the screens "They won't make such rookie mistakes nor make it easy for us." Steve hummed in agreement and stared at the Video clip "Let's study his attack patterns first, that might lead us somewhere, we'll get to the informant later." Thor hummed as he walked in "I have a feeling we will find her once we found the spider." the team hummed in acknowledgement. "Let's hope that'll be it..."

The Bell finally rang. Breaktime.

Peter and Ned walked out into the school ground, the sun shining brightly while a soft breeze cooled them down just enough. "So... hows your evening job working out?" Ned asked quietly. Peter shook his head, knownig his guy in the chair was talking about Spiderman. "Nothing unusual." he hummed, staring out to the basketball and soccer court. Ned nodded and looked out as well before focusing on his food. Usually Peter would feel slightly bad for keeping his guy in the chair in the dark, but his spider sense had gone nuts last night.. whoever had been following him around for awhile was good at hiding too.. maybe his spider sense backfired,,? No way..

MJ joined their side, in her hands a book and pen. The other held a small box. The boys silently aknowledged her with a nod which she sent back. "So, anything new?" she hummed as she adjusted her book in her lap. Ned shrugged "Not really. Flash mainly ignored us today." he said and leaned back. The female huffed "At least something." she stated, glaring out at the courtyard.

They watched the older and younger students play ball until Flash and his goons walked into it and started demanding and yelling about something.

"What do you think they're yelling about?" Ned muttered and turned to Peter, his eyes glued to their elders and Flash's group. Peter shook his head slightly. "I've got no idea." MJ frowned at the sight of all seniors suddenly tunring to Flash and a boy who walked towards him rather quickly. They got into each others faces before the first punch fell "OUH!" Ned yelped and stood "What do we do?!" he squeaked and his friends went to stand. "Get a teacher." MJ stated making Ned scramble inside.

MJ turned to look at Peter who was already speed walking to the fight. "Crap.. Peter!" she called and raced after him, joining him on half way before taking over and walking into the court. Flash was fighting the freshman while the others cowered away behind the seniors who tried interfering yet never succeeded. Mj growled "FLASH!" she screamed firmly over the yells.

The two fighters froze. Mj frowned, taking a step forth, the boy was weridly bloody and blue, a normal fight shouln't have created this much damage "Stop. A teacher's already been called. I'd recommend saving yourself the time." she stated firmly. Peter winced at the heated glare Flash sent her. He couldn't fight Flash with his powers, risking a fight might trigger his rather.. ‘unnatural’ instincts.

The crowd watched as Flash let go of the beat freshman who scrambled away into the crowd. Flash meanwhile turned to MJ. "What?" he smirked "Wanna take his place?" he snarled making MJ frown "No, You heard what I said." she growled. Flash hummed, smirking at her "What, standing up for a mere baby but can't fight yourself?" he scowled. The tingle that shot up Peters spine made him move, he grabbed Mj and turned them around, the harsh, metallic punch landing in the back of his ribs.

He heaved, the injuries on the boy suddenly made sense. Flash was wearing rings under the long sleeves.

"WHATS GOING ON OUT HERE?!"

Mj scowled and turned to Peter, holding him slightly upright "Flash was fighting a Freshman and now hit Peter in the ribs." she reported to the teacher who came running. He seemingly noticed the rings making his eyes bulge "Get them to the infirmary. Flash we need to talk." he stated darkly.

Flash scoffed but followed out "Little Tattletale." he snarled at MJ who ignored him and instead looked at Ned who raced to help her move Peter.

Once in the infirmary they saw the young woman from that morning.

Her eyes widened at the sight of the students "Set the kid down on the bench." she said urgently, pointing at the white 'table'. She frowned and motioned for MJ and Ned to set Peter down on another bench.

She rushed to the freshman, tending to his wounds and telling her colleage to call his parents. Another male colleage joined her side and took over the younger. The brown haired female, hair now tied, walked over to them and grabbed a small chart. "Could you please tell me your name?" she hummed. "Peter" Peter muttered "Peter Parker." he added, making her nod as she wrote hastily "Where were you hit?" she asked, setting it down and turning her attention to him. He sighed, “my back..” she nodded and motioned him to turn around so his back faced her.., “sorry, I’ll need to lift your shirt..” she warned and Peter hummed, lifting it slightly himself "It wasn't all that bad." he said, making her nod but wince at the blue purple spot. "Very well, I'm glad you still came in." she praised slightly, masking any sign of that it was in fact worse then ‘not that bad’ "Ouh" she muttered slightly to herself and walked to the freezer “did you two get injured?” She asked “no, Ned and I are fine.” MJ said. The nurse nodded "Cool it." she demanded and threw Peter the ice "it will definitely leave a bruise." she said, grabbing a pen and a piece of paper "If the pain doesn't let up in the next ten minutes come find me and i'll see to getting you some cream." she offered and Peter took the note gratefully "Thank you miss...?" "Just.. Nova is fine." she smiled and wrote something down on the small chart “if the pain doesn’t let up over the next few days get it checked by a doctor, I'll talk with your teachers about the fight, you're free to go for now... if theres nothing else.." she informed, looking up from the chart and seeing the teens shake their heads.

The female nodded and smiled "then enjoy the rest of your break." The three nodded in sync and left silently, Peter noticed the frown on the females features as she looked after them.

He frowned, he had to research those rings. It'd be bad if he accidentally gave himself away by over- or underplaying an injury. He was enhanced, he had all kinds of enhancements in, healing, hearing, reaction time, sligthly higher pain tolerance.. if he wasn't careful things could get complicated... a grimace fell onto his face as he walked with his friends.. complicated was the least he needed right now with his spider sense malfunctioning..
