Prologue

It was night time in the city of Gotham. The city was filled with citizens and cars roaming its streets. It seemed as if the whole city was alive. However, there was something unusual about this day, there seemed to be a certain wall crawler swinging around.

Spider-Man was swinging from building to building in Gotham. This wasn't his city but he was here for a reason. To find someone called Batman.

Why is Jameson asking me to take pictures of this so called Batman? It's three days away till Christmas! He might not even exist. Spiderman thought to himself.

Apparently, J. Jonah Jameson had heard of someone in Gotham named Batman. He demanded that Peter Parker go to Gotham and get pictures of him or else he's fired. Currently he was swinging around with his camera to look for him.

It wasn't the only reason why he was here. He heard that some of Scorpion's men were moving a shipment into Gotham. Why they were doing this, he wasn't sure.

While Spider-Man was swinging around, he noticed some strange looking people waiting outside a building. They were dressed in black and wore black masks over their faces. Spiderman decided to get closer and investigate.

"Jeez, it's cold. Why can't we be inside too?" said one of the men.

"Would you stop complaining? We're out here to make sure no interrupts the deal." said the other thug.

"Who's gonna do that? No else knows about the deal." Said the first thug.

"You're right, but we're here to make sure no one might have caught wind of it. Now stop whining and keep watch." Said the second thug.

"Whatever." The first thug said with a groan.

Looks like Batman will have to wait, time to do some investigating. Spider-Man thought.

Spider-Man webbed his camera onto the wall, then dropped down in front of the two men. "Hey guys, how's it going?" He said.

"What the? Who's this freak?!" Said one of the thugs.

"It's that Spider guy! Get him!" Shouted the other thug.

One of the thugs tried to punch Spider-Man but he stepped to the side and countered with a knee to the gut followed by an uppercut that sent the thug in the air until Spiderman pulled him to the ground with his webs. The thug hit the ground with a loud thud, knocking him out.

The other thug tried to grab Spider-man, but Spider-Man grabbed his arm and threw him over his shoulder onto the ground. Then he jumped high into the air and landed on the thugs stomach, and webbed him to the floor.

"These guys never change, do they?" Spider-Man quipped.

Spider-Man tried to open the door the thugs were guarding but found it locked.

I'll have to find another way in Spider-man thought to himself.

As he looked around the building, he saw an air vent he could use. He grabbed his camera and webbed the front of it and pulled down, tearing it off. Spider-Man then entered, crawling through the tight space. When he reached the end. He found himself on a platform just above the floor, where there seemed to be a deal with 2 different groups were exchanging money for weapons.

"Lets see if this is even worth the money." said a thug who wore a jacket with a penguin logo on the back.

"Don't worry, Black Mask's a man of his word." Said another thug who just like the men outside, was wearing a black mask and a black suit.

So the guys in black work for someone named Black Mask? What about these other guys? Spidey pondered.

"We'll see, because if they aren't Penguin won't be pleased with your boss." Said the Black Mask thug.

Oh. well that was fast. Alright time to crash the party. Spidey thought

Spider-Man webbed his camera to the wall and jumped off of the platform and on top of one of the Black Mask thugs knocking him out. Everyone reeled back in shock.

"Hey everyone! I heard that there was a Halloween convention here. Is this it?" Spider-Man asked.

"Who the hell is this guy?!" Someone shouted.

"Who cares? Let's kill him!" Shouted someone else.

"I mean it's weird that everyone's dressed in costumes and it's almost Christmas, but hey who am I to judge?" Spidey said as he jumped over a thug who charged at him.

All of a sudden, a window shattered as someone leapt through it. Everyone stopped what they were doing to see who it was. It was someone wearing a heavily armored suit that looked like a bat.

"Oh great, who is it now?" A thug complained.

"I-It's Batman! Take him out!" Another thug shouted.

Wait. THIS is Batman? I thought Jameson was pulling my leg! Spidey thought before his spidey senses went off. One of Penguin's men tried to punch him from behind before Spider-Man dodged it and kicked him into a nearby wall.

Spider-Man and Batman took on all the men in the building. Knocking them out with their combat and tools.

When Spider-Man knocked out the last guy, he walked up to Batman and said "Hey, thanks f-" before he was grabbed by the neck by Batman and lifted him into the air.

"Who are you?! " He shouted, but then Spider-Man brought his feet onto Batman's stomach and kicked off of him and did a backflip.

"Whoa! Easy! I'm not a threat! I came here to stop this." Spidey said as he landed on the ground.

Batman glared at him, but he dropped his guard and said nothing. Spidey could feel the awkward silence and decided to break it " I'm Spider-Man. I guessing your Batman?"

"What are you doing in my city?" Batman questioned him.

He knew he couldn't tell Batman why he was really here. He looked like someone you don't want to mess with. Plus if he explained that he needed a picture of him, it would come off as creepy

He knew he had to use his other excuse. "An enemy of mine ordered a shipment here, I was looking for possible locations when I came across this place." He explained.

Batman just glared at him until he said, "When your done, leave my city. I don't need any more problems."

When he finished speaking, he turned to -Man soon realized he still needed a picture.

He quickly grabbed his camera with his webs, and got a picture of him while his back was turned.

Thank God the flash was off. Spidey thought as he left the building as well. When he looked at the picture, he realized that it was was out of focus. Great. just great. He thought as he groaned.

"Do you realized how much money I lost!" Shouted A man wearing a white suit and black mask said as he walked around the thug.

I'm sorry boss! This guy in a Spider suit beat up everyone at the deal! Even that Bat guy showed up!" Said one of the Black Mask thugs. He was meeting his boss in his office in the Sionis Steel Mill.

"Oh that's okay. All is forgiven." He said as he stopped walking.

"R-Really?" The thug asked.

"No" He said as he pulled out a pistol and shot him. Then Black Mask started to laugh hysterically. Then he picked up a newspaper with Spider-Man on the front page.

"So this Spider-Man wants to interfere in my business? I think my assassins need a second target." Black Mask said as he put the newspaper down and looked at pictures of potential assassins for Christmas Eve.
