《Benefits ━━ PETER PARKER》15. FAVOUR

BENEFITS — CHAPTER FIFTEEN!
was met with a series of questions. 'Where were you?' 'What were you doing in Germany?' 'Did you see the Avengers?' and many more. Peter could not answer any of those questions truthfully.
So, he told them the lie he'd been practicing since he got on the plane to Germany. He told them that his application to Tony Stark's September Foundation had been accepted and he went to Germany for an initiation retreat. Tony Stark had liked him so much that he'd offered Peter an internship. Oh, and he did see War Machine fly past him at the airport.
Okay, so ninety nine percent of that was a lie. If you consider fighting Captain America and other Avengers normal practice during initiation retreats. Or holding onto War Machine by a tiny strand of web as he flew you around an airport the same as seeing him fly by. Then yeah, Peter didn't lie.
Tony Stark did say his work was good though that was in an alibi video for his aunt. Peter still counted it though.
"That is literally the coolest thing I've ever seen happen to anyone I know." Ned said as he replayed the video again.
Peter grinned at him, "I know right?"
Michelle squinted at Peters phone, "how do I know this isn't CGI?"
"Uhm because Peter failed the animation course we took last summer," [Y/N] said, giggling slightly at the memory of Peters awful animations.
"Why do you always bring that up?" Peter sighed.
"'Cause it's funny," Ned interjected, defending [Y/N], "I think the Distance Ed teacher will be forever scarred."
"You can say that again," [Y/N] chuckled, high-fiving Ned.
Peter rolled his eyes. "Come on, let's get to class."
Today was their last day of Freshman year before summer. Everyone was buzzing with excitement. "Only 76%." Peters english teacher sighed as she placed it on his desk, "I'm disappointed."

Peter frowned at his paper. This was probably the lowest grade he'd gotten all year. It made him worry about his grades in other subjects. Perhaps focusing majority of his time and attention on being Spider-Man wasn't the smartest idea.
"What'd you get?" [Y/N] asked, turning around in her seat to face him. Her test paper showed a nice 92%.
"76%." Peter sighed, sliding the paper towards her.
[Y/N] frowned. "That's still a pass though, don't be so hard on yourself." She bit her lip, the Dora The Explorer chip practically burned in her back pocket. "Hey... Can we uh talk? After school? I gotta ask you a favour..."
Peter nodded. "Uh, yeah sure."
"Cool."
"I hope you all have a great summer," Mr Harrington said, waving to the students as the filled out of the room.
"You too," Liz Allen replied on behalf of the class. "Try not to miss us too much."
Mr Harrington sighed, "missing people is my specialty, just ask Tabitha."
Liz coughed awkwardly. "Oh... okay."
[Y/N] tried her best not to laugh at this exchange. "So, you wanted to talk to me about something?" She heard a familiar voice ask from behind.
[Y/N] felt her stomach gurgle as butterflies began fluttering around like maniacs. She took in a deep breath before turning to face the brown haired boy with a smile.
"Yeah, I did." She said as they walked down the hall for the last time as ninth graders. "Here."
She held out her hand. Peter looked at it quizzically, he instantly recognised the purple chip. Slowly, he took it from her and examined it. "I totally forgot about this..." He said, chuckling at the memory.
[Y/N] scratched the back of her neck and tried to force out a laugh. "So did I."

Peter looked up and met her eyes, "so, you wanted to talk about Dora The Explorer?"
[Y/N] shook her head, "no but Dora gave me the courage. You remember this chips significance, right?"
He nodded, a fond smile on his lips. "Of course. How could I forget. This very chip is the reason I broke my arm for the first time."
[Y/N] blushed at the memory. "I still feel terrible about that."
Peter shrugged. "Why? I lived."
"Yeah, you did."
"Anyways, what do you want out of me?"

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
