Last Goodbye

Four years have passed since I came to this world. I really have enjoyed the time here, with my parents.

Right now I'm in my room on my bed reading a biology book. It seems as I got reincarnated as Peter Parker even if I am in another universe I got his smarts. I feel like I have to learn as much as I can. I have this thirst for knowledge, but I didn't enjoy studying this much in my previous world. It seems I got a little Peter Parker personality fused with my own.

As I grew up my appearance changed. Right now I am a young cute boy with blue eyes and medium length raven black hair with some hair almost covering my right eye. I am a little tall for my age, at 43" tall, fair skin tone that adds to my cuteness.

As I was reading my book my doors suddenly opened and my mother came in.

"Hey, mom what do you need?" I asked, innocently tilting my head to the side.

"Hey, sweety, I need to tell you that mom and dad need to go on a business trip so you will stay at Uncle and Aunt's house for a while." She explained. When I heard that I got wide eyes.

"Mom, are you going to travel on a plane?" I asked hoping the answer will be a big 'no'.

"Yes, we need to travel to a different country, so we will be gone for a little while, but we will try and come back as soon as we can." She smiled and gently stroked my cheek.

"Mom can you not go?" I asked trying to stop them from going. I know that in that plane crash they will die... they die because of that research they have on Super Soldier serum, somebody is going to attack them there , I want to save them, but there is little I can do.

"I'm sorry baby, but we need to go." She smiled weakly, and I could see that she was sad. She knew what will happen. "So come here, I'll help you pack your stuff so we can go." She said after giving me a light hug.

'I'll try to do something on the way, but what can I do, they'll think that their four-year-old doesn't want to to leave and will never listen to me' I thought while slowly getting up from my bed and came to my mother who was taking a suitcase from the top of my wardrobe and began packing my clothes and other necessities, she then packed my toys, books and other things I helped her pack. After a while, we packed everything and came downstairs where my father was waiting for us.

"Is everything ready?" Asked Richard smiling slightly when he saw us.

"Yeah, we have everything" Answered my mother holding hand and stepping down the stairs.

My father nodded and took the suitcase from my mother and went outside. My mother turned off all the lights and went outside as I followed her. She locked the door and turned to see dad placing the suitcase in the trunk of our car, then closing it.

We got into the car and dad started driving. They had a small talk in hushed voices so that I couldn't hear anything.

"Do you think they will accept?" Mary asked with worried eyes.

"Yea, I think so. My brother is a good man, and they both love Peter, so when I explain everything I am sure they will accept," replied Richard. You could hear a trace of regret and sadness in his voice.

"I hope they do. But, do we really need to go? We will be leaving Peter alone like this."

"Mary we have to, you know that this is hurting me too but this is for his safety." He said looking at his wife for a second before moving his eyes back on the road.

"I know, I know, but we will leave our son, what will he feel when he hears about us?" Mary let out a small tear.

"Hey, it's going to be okay." Consoled Richard, taking Mary's hand into his own. "He is strong, he will be okay."

Mary looked at Richard with watery eyes and held his hand tightly and gave a small nod. Richard seeing this gave a small smile and continued to hold her hand.

"Mom, Dad, can you stay for one more day?" I tried to talk them out of it, but they know that this may be the last day with their son. So I can't really do anything if they are doing this for me.

"Sorry Peter, but I promise that we will return as soon as we can." Said Richard looking at me through his rearview mirror.

After a while, we came into the driveway of my Uncle and Aunt's house. When they heard our car they came out of their house and I immediately ran up to them and hugged them. I met these people and they are great. They love me like their own son.

"Hi Uncle Ben, Aunt May." I greeted them while giving them a big hug.

"Hello Peter, sweety, how are you doing?" Asked May.

"I'm fine Aunt May."

"So Richard, why did you come today? Not that I am complaining, I like a visit, but you didn't say anything about visiting today." Asked Ben after giving his brother a hug.

"I have a favor to ask, can we talk inside?" Asked Richard.

Ben looked at him for a moment before answering " Sure, come on in. Good to see you, Mary." He smiled at mom.

"You too Ben, how are you May?" Asked mom giving aunt May a hug.

"I'm doing good Mary."

After all the greetings we went inside we sat on the couch before my dad spoke.

"May can you take Peter outside please, this talk is really important and I don't want him to hear it."

"Okay, come here sweety" Aunt May took my hand and led me outside.

"What is this about Richard?" Asked Ben getting serious when he heard that the talk was important.

"You know what job we are in, right?" Asked Richard and getting a nod from Ben he continued. "We have been doing this research and the word got out that we got close to the finish so we have some dangerous people following us Ben, and when we leave, I don't think we will come back," Richard explained with his head down and his hands on his knees.

"What do you mean not come back?" Ben asked in a fearful tone.

"I mean, there is a high possibility that we will not make it out alive." Mary gave an explanation of her husband's words.

"What will happen with Peter then" Asked Ben, fearing for his brother's life. He knew he couldn't do anything but he was still frustrated.

"We were hoping you would take him in." Said, Richard.

"Richard, I love Peter like my own son, of course, I will take him" Replied Ben in a low voice with his head in his hands.

"I know you're financial status, so I know taking Peter in will be hard, but don't worry we have made an account that will transfer money to you every month so you don't have to worry about that."

"I don't need it, Richard, we can take care of ourselves."

"Please take it, if not for you then save it for Peter, he will need to go to college, save it for then." Mary tried to reason with Ben. She knew that Ben was a good man but he knew how to be stubborn, like her husband. So she gave a compromise that will give him no choice but to take the money.

"Okay, I'll save it for Peter then," Ben replied.

"Thank you, Ben, really thank you" Richard and Mary thanked him. They knew their son was now in good hands so they don't have to worry about anything.

After a while me and Aunt May came back in and could feel the serious and heavy atmosphere in the air.

May asked confused "What is going on?"

"Can we go and unpack Peters stuff in his room?" Asked Mary, and getting approval from May and Ben she went but not before saying to May "Richard will explain."

After a while, we finished unpacking and we found our selves at our front door saying goodbye to my parents.

"Be a good boy, okay Peter? Listen to what your aunt and uncle say." My mother told me "And always remember I will love you forever and ever." She let out a few tears and kissed me on the forehead after a long and tight hug.

"You heard her Peter, always be good, and remember we will always be proud and love you." said my father giving me a hug.

After they said their goodbyes to Ben and May they got into their car giving me the last smile and wave before driving off.

May knowing that they went to possibly their deaths burst out crying on Ben's shoulder while he tried to console her barely stopping his tears from flowing.

And me, I just stood there looking in the distance while thinking of the two people most important to me that I could not save.
