She wasn't even supposed to be in Johnny's neighborhood tonight. They had plans for later in the week and Johnny had said he was moving his stuff out of Sids place and into an apartment he was sharing with a couple of the Cobras during college. But Gwen really couldn't sit still in her own apartment. Her skin was crawling, and she had that feeling that she had somewhere she needed to be, but pinpointing exactly where took a little bit.
Soon enough, however, she found where she was meant to be.
She followed her spider sense, dressed as Ghost Spider and bouncing from rooftop to rooftop until, somehow, she found herself standing on a rooftop across the street from Johnny's stepdads mansion.
At first, working out why she was there wasn't apparent right away. It never really is. But then, a loud, shattering sound (well, loud to her) catches her ears, and then all of the lights in the house go off. All of them at once, letting Gwen know someone cut the power to the house.
And then a shout from inside the house.
"Johnny," she says to herself, knowing that voice anywhere. That's when Ghost Spider moves, leaping off the rooftop and running across the street to Sids, The front door is broken open which works for her. It makes it easier to get into the house, and the sound of a fight makes it easy for Gwen to track the several masked people that are fighting with Johnny.
It takes her a second to take out the first one, dropping from the ceiling on a web-line and picking them up, throwing them into a wall before moving to the second. By this point, she's been noticed. But that's fine, at least they're leaving Johnny alone.
She just has to find a way to do this without revealing herself to the crooks. She's sure after a while her boyfriend will figure out who she is.
