Spider-Man Reality Untangled: Episode II "Enter Electro"
Prologue: Enter Electro
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIt was a warm, lazy morning in the city of Canterlot. The sun shone brightly, and the city was alive with the soft hum of traffic. Down below, a young boy, dressed in a simple hoodie and jeans, was walking along the sidewalk. He had the air of a loner, casually strolling through the bustling streets with a sense of purpose.
The boy's name was Ben Mercer, but he was better known as Spider-Man – a hero who had been protecting the city for a few months now.
in that time he made friends with Six Girls Named Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Sunset Shimmer. there was also Arctic Ace who had only found out that Ben was Spider-Man a month ago at the battle of the bands. since then Arctic ace had been working to help One of the Dazzlings Sonata Dusk become a better person.
as Ben was swinging towards school he was happy that he'd actually be on time. principal Celestia had already given him way too many tardy slips.
Ben's day-to-day life was a unique one. By day, he was a normal high school student, attending classes, making friends, and trying to maintain some semblance of a social life. As the sun started to dip below the horizon, the city of Canterlot began to come to life with the hustle and bustle of evening routines. Ben continued walking, making his way towards Canterlot High. He was in a good mood, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of relief at the fact that he was actually going to make it to school on time today, a rare occurrence for him.
Ben swung through the city, the wind rustling his hair as he navigated the urban landscape. His thoughts raced, a mix of school, hero duties, and the people he cared for. Among the fleeting concerns and worries, one thought seemed to stand out more than the rest.
Suddenly, his train of thought was interrupted as the familiar sound of a siren echoed in the distance. Ben's mind immediately snapped back into action mode, senses on high alert. He paused in mid-swing, his eyes darting around the city, searching for the source of the siren.
Ben's gaze traced the trajectory of the siren, his frown deepening as he spotted the source of the disturbance. Sure enough, it was a police cruiser trailing a suspect. As the realization dawned upon him, Ben groaned inwardly, "Great, I'm going to be late for school because of some damn criminal again. Something's never change."

Meanwhile Sunset Shimmer was walking to school a smile plastered on her face, as she walked a Car sped by her at breakneck speed followed by Spider-Man who was Attached to the car by a web being dragged along the ground using a trashcan lid as a skateboard.
The grin on Sunset Shimmer's face faltered for a brief moment as she saw the scene unfolding before her. Ben, caught in a web and being dragged along the ground like a human skateboard, caused her to sigh. "Ugh, seriously? This again?" she muttered, rolling her eyes. "His attendance record is starting to look like an award at this point."
Sunset found herself shaking her head with a mix of amusement and annoyance. She continued walking towards Canterlot High, the rhythmic Sound of her steps breaking the silence of the early morning. On cue, she couldn't help but comment aloud, "This city's never boring, I'll give them that," she said, a slight laugh escaping her lips. "And I guess our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man has a talent for being late for class."
As Sunset made her way through the halls of Canterlot High, she found herself crossing paths with Pinkie Pie, Arctic Ace, and Sonata Dusk, huddled together in a corner. Their animated giggles and chatter painted a lively picture of their conversation. Sunset recognized the three and approached them with a smile. "Hey, what's up, guys?" she greeted, leaning against a nearby locker.
The other three turned as soon as they heard Sunset's voice. Pinkie Pie, the peppy girl with an eye for detail, flashed her most infectious smile. "Hey, Sunset! We were just having a little chat!" she exclaimed, her voice as cheerful as ever.
Arctic Ace nodded in greeting, a warm smile on his face. "Yeah, we were just catching up on some stuff," he chimed in, casually leaning against the wall.
Sonata Dusk, the Reformed Villain and newest member of the group, voiced her curiosity directly and asked, "Speaking of Ben, where is he? He's usually here by now."
The mention of Ben's tardiness caused Sunset to let out a small sigh. "Yeah, he's kind of infamous for being late, unfortunately," she admitted with a chuckle. "He'll probably make an entrance any minute now."
Ben's entrance was punctuated by the sound of the school bell echoing in the background. As he strolled through the front door, he dusted off his clothes, a casual demeanor about him. He then addressed the group with a tone that suggested he was used to the situation, "Hey everyone, sorry I'm late again. Spent most of the morning attached to the back of a car, trying to prevent it from crashing into the Crystal Prep Academy halfway across town."
The others chuckled at Ben's explanation, familiar with his adventures in the city as Spider-Man. Pinkie Pie, the energetic one, gave him a playful nudge. "Well, at least you had a more action-packed morning than us," she remarked, a smile on her face. The other girls nodded in agreement, but Sonata's expression betrayed her concern.
Ben was midway into his conversation when the unmistakable sound of Principal Celestia's voice interrupted. He turned to find her standing behind him, arms crossed, with an unamused expression on her face.
Ben felt a mixture of surprise and annoyance as he was reprimanded for his tardiness yet again. Principal Celestia's voice was calm but firm. "Ah, Ben," she said, "late again, I see?"
Ben swallowed the sigh that was building in his throat and responded with a sheepish look on his face. "Um, yeah, sorry about that. I got a little held up this morning," he admitted, hoping she wouldn't lecture him.
Principal Celestia raised an eyebrow at his explanation, her arms still crossed. "Held up, hm?" she echoed, the tone in her voice hinting at skepticism. "By what, if I might ask?"
Ben, caught off guard by Principal Celestia's question, quickly put together an excuse. "Oh, um, I was out helping a friend with some... stuff," he lied smoothly. "They needed my assistance with something, so I couldn't make it here in time."
Principal Celestia studied him for a moment, her sharp eyes seemingly seeing through his words but not pressing the issue further. She responded with a knowing nod. "I see," she said, her eyes flickering around the school. "Just try to make sure it doesn't become a habit, alright?"
Ben watched as Principal Celestia walked off before turning back to the group, a sigh escaping his lips. "Well, that could've been worse," he muttered, though clearly he'd rather not have been lectured by the principal again.
The others, who had been standing by during the exchange, chuckled at his comment. Pinkie Pie patted him on the back. "Don't sweat it. We know you're always saving the city, Spidey," she said with a smirk. The others nodded in agreement, the collective understanding and trust evident in their expressions.
Ben nodded at Pinkie's words as the bell rang, signaling time for class. However, as they were about to start walking away, Sunset abruptly stopped and overheard a noise in the hallway. Her sharp ears picked up the sound of someone being picked on nearby.
She moved quickly and quietly towards the source of the noise and found herself witnessing something familiar: the sight of Max Dillon, a student she had met before, being picked on by a group of bullies. Without hesitation, Sunset intervened, her voice laced with a protective tone as she called out, "Hey! Leave him alone!"
The bully group turned towards her, their expressions changing from annoyance to surprise at her sudden appearance. The ringleader, a tall and muscular guy, sneered, "Who are you? We're just having a little fun here. Mind your own business."
Sunset stood her ground and crossed her arms, her eyes narrowing defiantly. "That's not what it looks like to me," she retorted. "It looks like you're picking on him for no reason. I don't think he deserves to be treated like that."
Principal Celestia strode over to the scene, a no-nonsense air about her. With a stern glance, she addressed the bullies, "What do we have here?" Seeing the situation, Principal Celestia sided with Sunset and approached the group, her gaze sharp and disapproving. The bully leader visibly hesitated for a moment, taken aback by the sudden arrival of the principal, before reluctantly backing off, along with his gang.
With the bullies scattered, Sunset moved to Max Dillon's side and knelt down to help him up, concern etched on her face. "Are you alright?" she asked, her voice filled with genuine concern.
Max, still shaken up from the ordeal, looked up at Sunset, his eyes betraying the discomfort he felt. "Uh, yeah, I think so," he managed, a hint of gratitude in his voice. "Thanks for stepping in, that was getting kinda intense."
Sunset chuckled gently and extended a hand to help him up to his feet. "No problem," she said with a reassuring smile. "It's not right for anyone to be treated like that, especially when they haven't done anything wrong."
Max took her hand and pushed himself up, his face expressing a mix of relief and gratitude. "Thanks again. I'm Max, by the way," he introduced himself, a slight smile on his face.
Sunset smiled warmly, appreciating his introduction. "Nice to meet you, Max. I'm Sunset," she replied, her tone friendly. "If those guys try to mess with you again, let me know. I won't let that slide."
Max nodded, his expression grateful. "Thanks, I appreciate it," he said earnestly. "I'll keep that in mind. You're a cool person, Sunset."
================***==============
At lunch Ben and Arctic Ace worked on their science project, the other girls engaged in their own conversations and activities.
Sunset then spoke up, breaking the conversation, "I'm glad to have Max join us for lunch. He seems like a nice guy."
The other girls glanced at each other before Pinkie Pie spoke up, "He is pretty nice. And he's definitely adorable."
Sunset laughed at Pinkie Pie's comment. "You think everyone's adorable, Pinks," she said teasingly.
Applejack chimed in with a smirk, "Well, he's got that cute little stutter when he talks. Kinda endearing."
As Max took his seat next to Rarity, a small smile played on Rarity's lips. She glanced at him appreciatively, a hint of amusement in her eyes.
"Well, look who decided to join us," Rarity greeted, her tone lighthearted.
As Ben looked up and smiled at Max, the other girls couldn't help but notice the subtle interaction.
Pinkie Pie, always observant, chuckled softly and nudged Ben with her elbow. "You two are already getting along nicely," she teased.
Ben rolled his eyes jokingly, though he couldn't help but smile. "Shut up, Pinkie," he mumbled Jokingly.
Pinkie giggled, taking his playful response as a win. Max, noticing the exchange, chimed in, a hint of amusement in his voice. "It seems like you two are close friends."
Ben chuckled and nodded. "We've been friends for a while now," he confirmed. "Pinkie's a good friend, even if she can be a bit... energetic at times."
Pinkie, the embodiment of energy herself, couldn't help but giggle at his comment. "Hey, I'm not that bad, am I?" she said with a mock-offended tone.
The rest of the day was typical, and the school day was drawing to a close. As the first few drops of rain started to fall, Ben began making his way home.
Max, on the other hand, stayed behind to finish up some tasks at school. As he cleaned up, the power suddenly went out, casting the school into darkness, and a loud crack of thunder rumbled outside.
Max, determined to restore the power, reached the janitor's closet and pulled the fuse lever, hoping to restore electricity. However, as he did so, a bolt of lightning hit the electrical box on the roof, sending an electrical surge through the entire building.
Max stumbled backward as the electricity coursed through his body. The sparks from the fuse box danced in the puddle of water he stood in, causing a dangerous combination of electricity to spark. Max let out a cry of pain, unable to avoid the full force of the electrical shock.
