Wrong Spider
This is my version of how Spider-Man is made. This time there are three people who were bitten by three different radioactive spiders; Peter Parker, and my two OC's Aiden "Bix" and Ariel "Coco" Chalk. This isn't set in any specific universe, so there could be some 'errors' to the hardcore comic readers out there. I tried to base it on the Ultimate Comics as best I could but still. I own nothing BTW.
Chapter 1: The Field Trip
It was another normal day for the two high schoolers walking toward the bus that heads to Midtown High School. It was sunny and as always in Queens, small and quiet.
The girl got on the bus first. She was wearing her usual shorts and a grey tank top that was covered by a dark green jacket. Her short, light blue dyed hair covered half of her green eyes and lightly tanned face. She sat next to the front seat nearest to the exit and waited for her brother to get on.
The next person to enter the bus was the school's nerdiest person, Peter Parker. He sat on the adjacent seat with Mary Jane Watson, the only red head on the bus.
The girl's brother finally got on the bus and sat next to his sister. He was wearing his all black attire of long pants and a red striped sweater. His dyed red hair was tied up so he could have his black hood on his head. He would only sit next to his sister as opposed to sitting anywhere else.
"This is gonna be a good field trip." The girl said to her brother.
He looked at her with a smile and said, "I know it is. I mean, we're talking about a major breakthrough in controlled radiation and fusion. How can anyone not be excited for that?"
She knew how much he wanted to go on this trip. He had been pestering her and their parents for weeks to get them to agree on letting them go on the trip. The boy was a science wiz and things like fusion and radiation always interested him. The girl on the other hand was more of an English and math nerd than science.
"Well Bix," the girl started while patting him on the shoulder, "it looks like we're finally goin on this trip. So please don't explain to me the extremely boring stuff until we actually get there."
"Yeah Coco," Bix answered her with a smile, "I know that you'll really love the scientific achievements and wonders that mankind has achieved over the pass millennia." Bix finished his statement in a sarcastic tone to spite his sister, and it worked.
The bus started to move into Manhattan where the research facility for radiation and fusion was held. Since everyone on the bus had lived in Queens their entire lives it was truly a fantastic spectacle to see all of the buildings and massive scenery that is Manhattan.
Bix and Coco stared out their window in utter amazement at how large the city was up close. They had always wondered how large it was from their small home in Queens, but until today they had no idea.
"Hey Pete," Mary Jane said to him, "what do you think we'll see here in Manhattan other than the fancy radiation thing?"
Peter had a smile on his face at MJ's question. He thought about for a second before the bus had abruptly stopped on the side of the street. Everyone looked out as a few police cars with their sirens on rushed passed them and darted around the corner a few blocks away. Peter looked at MJ and said, "Well there's that I suppose."
After a few minutes of driving around, the bus had finally made it to their destination. They a filed out of the bus and onto the street in front of the research facility, Oscorp. A man in a white overcoat came outside to greet them all. He was tall but thin and had on protective goggles.
"Welcome students of Midtown High," the man started, "my name is Professor Gibson. I'll be giving you the tour of our Oscorp facility today." They all began to walk toward the entrance. "I would like for all of you to stay together for the tour of the future." He said those final words as he began to open the doors into Oscorp. There was a mixed reaction of awe and uncaring remarks with the group of students. People like Bix and Peter were really the only ones who were in complete and total amazement while others like MJ and Coco were simply in awe.
"Alright everyone," Professor Gibson started, "if you would be as kind as to following me. We will begin our tour with a look at our how our staff and fellow professors work here."
Professor Gibson started introducing them to all sorts of scientists and workers at Oscorp for several minutes until it was time to see some of the experiments they were conducting. They saw some of Oscorp's experimental formulas and witnessed some technological wonders. All of this had Bix heavily interested in becoming a scientist or a nuclear engineer. While Bix was contemplating his future, Coco was still very interested in the ways that Oscorp has used their technology since their creation all those many years ago.
After a few more tours, it later finally lead to the last part of the tour, controlled radiation and fusion. Bix was beyond excited to see the experiment in progress. He'd been explaining to Coco the procedures for this experiment that he was studying in a pamphlet they all got earlier. It didn't truly interest her that much as did her younger brother, but she acted interested to keep Bix excited for the demonstration.
"Hello there students," another scientist said as he walked up to them, "I'm Doctor Otto Octavius and I will be showing you how we here at Oscorp have successfully harnessed the ability to control radiation and fusion." Doctor Octavius was a very popular name in the science world. He was heavily influential on the development of a sustainable and clean energy source back in the early ninety's, but unfortunately he didn't have the funds or resources to back his vision at the time. Both Peter and Bix were the only ones who truly knew how brilliant Doctor Octavius was, and they were both excited to see his demonstration.
"Now if you'll excuse me," the doctor started, "I must be on my way to begin the procedure. Good day to you all." As he walked off, Coco watched her brother having a fangasm at seeing one of his scientific heroes.
They were now standing near a wall that had protective glass completely covering it. They all watched as a device began to activate and start to radiate a glow from itself. Suddenly, a massive ball of radiation appeared right in the center of the machine. A voice over the loud speaker said to them, "And that, children, is a successful controlled radiation and fusion stabilization."
As everyone stared at the radiation ball, unknown to anyone, three spiders were caught in the machines radiation. The three spiders scurried away from the machine and made their way out through tiny cracks in the walls. They made their way over to the students and were on three of them. The first spider, a strange black spider with two yellow circles on its back, crawled on Peter's hand and bit him. Kong McFarlane quickly stepped on it, killing the spider.
As he reacted to the bite with everyone watching him, the second one, a smaller orange spider, crawled on Coco's leg and bit her on her thigh. At first she didn't feel it, until she began to itch on that thigh. She scratched and felt that she hit something off of her. When she looked down she saw the small orange spider scurrying slowly away from them.
The final spider, a white spider with one circle on its back, crawled on Bix's shoulder and bit him. He felt it immediately and swatted at his shoulder thinking a fly or something bit him. The white spider fell died and fell into his jacket pocket.
Back on the bus
Peter had his left hand bandaged up on the bus. He wasn't feeling so well when he was bitten. He threw up and passed out on the floor of Oscorp earlier, but now he was feeling better than before.
"Alright everyone," the teacher said on the bus to get everyone to settle down, "since we the tour ended earlier than expected, and we were supposed to return you all back to the school when school ends, we are going to take you all back to your homes early."
There was a cheerful uproar in the bus as everyone started to thank Peter for taking one for the team. Peter felt pretty good for the mild praise.
As the bus made its way back to Queens, Coco couldn't stop scratching her thigh. She didn't really know if it was that orange spider that bit her or if a fly bit her and she was having a bad reaction.
Even though Peter passed out and Coco was scratching her thigh intensely, Bix hadn't really had a reaction to the white spiders bite.
When the bus had made its way to Bix and Coco's stop, the two got off and made their way home. On the way back, Bix had finally gotten sick of Coco using him as a rest so she can scratch her thigh.
"What's wrong with you, seriously?" He asked her in an annoyed tone.
"My thigh keeps itching dude. I don't know why." She answered.
Suddenly, she stopped scratching and looked at her leg. She noticed a bump on it.
"I'm still wondering if Peter Parker is okay." Bix said as he saw Peter walking towards his house one block behind them. He waved at Peter and Peter, taking notice to Bix, waved back with his right hand. Bix motioned to Peter's left hand and Peter gave thumbs up with his right, indicating that he was okay.
"Huh," Coco said to herself, "it doesn't itch anymore."
"About time." Bix said to her while getting her off his shoulder. "Let's go home already."
The two made their way to their house one block over and went inside. After explaining to their dad what happened earlier and a quick lunch, Bix went into his room and tried to work on an experiment of his. When he took his jacket off, he felt a sharp pain on his right shoulder. He rubbed it for a while and then noticed the dead white spider lying on the floor.
"What the heck is that doin in my-," Before he could finish his sentence, he noticed that his papers were stuck on his hand.
"Well that can't be good." He said to himself.
To Clear Up Some Confusion, Bix And Coco Are Nicknames.
This Story Is Being Based Off The Ultimate Spiderman Comics, But Will Have Some Of My Own Twists On It.
And Finally, Peter Will Be Important To The Story. Also Coco And Bix Will Have Some Different Powers For Themselves.
