Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Despite the destruction caused by Doctor Octopus, the science fair carried on. Soon it was time to announce the winner of the Big Apple Science Trophy. Peter could barely contain his excitement. He stood beside his project, squeezing Aunt May's hand.

"And the trophy goes to..." The head judge opened an envelope. "Peter Parker." The crowd of scientists, students, and their families applauded. Peter hugged his aunt. He walked to the front of the room to claim his prize. "Thank you," he said to the crowd. "This trophy means a lot to me. But if it's okay with the judges, I'd like to share it with someone else." Peter pointed to Flash Thompson. "I got to see Flash's ant project before it was destroyed tonight. And I can tell you it was really good. But even more impressive? It was Flash's project that saved the day. I heard that when Spider-Man, Ant-Man, and the Wasp needed Flash's ants to defeat Doctor Octopus, Flash said yes. He even told

them which ants to use, which was some quick and smart thinking. For that, he deserves this award as much as I do." The crowd cheered. Flash joined Peter at the front of the room and shook his hand, a giant smile on his face. After the ceremony, Flash pulled Peter aside. "Thanks for including me, Parker," he said. "It means a lot that a smart guy like you thinks I did a good job." Peter looked at his feet. "To tell you the truth," he said, "I didn't expect you

to make such a good project. I thought you were only interested in sports. I'm sorry I judged you, Flash. I promise not to do that again." Flash considered this. "So does this mean there's more to you than just being a supersmart guy? Have you got some mad basketball skills I don't know about?" Peter laughed. "Next time we have PE, pick me first and you'll find out." "You've got it, Parker," Flash said. He and Peter walked toward the exit, where Aunt May was waiting for them with their projects. "Hey, why don't we meet at the courts this weekend and practice some one-on-one?" Peter smiled. He'd learned a lot today, and not just about ants. "You're on," he said.
