Chapter two: Introductions

Penny woke up with a quiet groan. What the hell happened?Was the first thought that entered her mind. She remembered having an argument with Sheldon, promising to close the door for the apartment, and entering Sheldon's room for revenge. Then nothing; Blank, zero, nada. Penny sighed and stretched only to realize something wasn't right. Suddenly, Penny felt extremely nauseous as she looked down. She was hanging upside down on some sort of rope! In addition, Penny realized that she was hanging upside down from a building in a spider-like position. But what shocked her the most was what she was wearing. Instead of wearing her pink T-shirt and her Denim jeans, she wore a full body, black jumpsuit that clung to her like a second skin, showing every curve. A giant white spider appeared on her midsection and white squares were on the flat palms on her hands. A featureless mask covered her face as the only thing visible on it was a giant white teardrops that covered the eyes. Looking at her reflection, Penny closed her eyes, hoping this was all a dream and that she is in her apartment about to wake up. She opened them again, but continued to look at the reflection in front of her. Normally, Penny would probably scream at the top of her lungs, being that she is hanging on a line from a building, but she didn't. In fact, Penny felt good. She felt that all her fears were vanished and were replaced by this new feeling of bravery. Penny then went closer to the building, which surprisingly, she stuck to it like a spider. She then started crawling like one up the glass of the building. Thinking of the line she held on to earlier, a web line shot out from the white squares on her hands and stuck to another building. Penny then leaped off the building gracefully and swung to the next building, while doing acrobatic flips. She landed on the building's roof and stared at the night sky. The mask receded, showing all of Penny's face.

"Did I just do all that?" Penny asked out load to herself, not believing in what she just did.

"No, we did together."replied a mysterious voice that sounded very familiar.

Immediately, Penny spun around the rooftop to find out who was there. "Who's there?" Penny asked without any fear. "Sheldon, if this is you come out before I give you a good old Nebraskan punch in the face!"

The voice chuckled at her anger. "We are not Doctor Cooper and we are closer than you think." Penny calmed down and listened to the voice, thinking why it sounded so familiar. The blonde then looked down to her arms, observing the suit's dark color that covered them like blank ink. What a minute, black…Penny thought to herself before her eyes widened in epiphany. She remembered everything now; the suit has the same color as the goo she found in Sheldon's room. The suit is the goo! It gave the same power and feeling that the slime did when it attached to her body. She looked down at her body and felt like the suit is attached to her skin.

Penny gulped and asked the voice "Y-you're the suit I'm wearing, aren't you?" This time, fear entered her voice as she nervously stared at the spider symbol. She immediately regretted about going into Sheldon's room and wondered why Sheldon couldn't be like other people. Fear quickly turned to anger as a scowl crossed Penny's face. "Why did you attack me?!" asked Penny angrily at the voice as she was ready to tear the black clothing off of her.

The symbiote, sensing the scared girl's anger, explained. "We apologize if we frightened you. I understand if you have questions, let us explain. We do not have a name and we are simply called a symbiote. Before you ask, Doctor Cooper did not create us. We are foreign to this planet and crashed landed here months ago. Ever since then, the dreaded doctor tested us, tortured us, like lab rats. Being trapped in that glass prison was most… uncomfortable. We thank you for finding us and making you our host."

Penny stood there, shocked at what was given to her. "So, you're some sort of… alien?" The girl asked, not believing this is real. At times like these, she wished she hasn't droned out whenever Leonard and the guys would talk about comic books and sci-fi shows.

"Yes." The symbiote replied as Penny looked over the suit and felt there were little clothing underneath it.

"Where are my clothes?" Penny asked as she stretched the dark fabric on her arm to see any sort of clothing underneath it.

"When we bonded to you, all material outside your skin has been absorbed by us in order for the process to be complete." The symbiote explained which Penny gaped aghast.

"Wait, so you're telling me that I'm naked?!" Penny yelled hysterically before frowning. "Pervert." The blonde added, once more looking at her body as she noticed that her breasts almost doubled in size. Even though she was naked underneath it, she didn't feel like she was. In fact, the symbiote made her feel great, unstoppable. She also noticed that her muscles increased as well, almost as big as a professional Olympic gymnast. Although her knowledge on science is sketchy at best, she knew that if she was a host, then the symbiote must be some sort of parasite. And there was no waysome alien ringworm is attached on her for free. "Alright, pal, what's in it for me?" Penny asked the alien.

"In return for making you our host, we grant you power that you wouldn't believe is possible. Sticking to walls and create web lines are just a fraction of our strength. With us, no one will take advantage of you, especially Doctor Cooper, which we know you despise." The symbiote responded as Penny thought over what the alien said. The symbiote did make several points. With this suit on, Penny felt unstoppable and more alive than ever. She is also tired of being undermined by Sheldon and his self-centered attitude. "Alright symbi, you got yourself a deal."

"Excellent, with us together, we will be unbeatable."The symbiote exclaimed as the mask recovers her face. Penny grinned under the mask as she leaped off the building and swung on her web line across Pasadena.

As dawn approached, Sheldon and Leonard return to their apartment after dropping Raj and Howard off at their respective homes. They did not know that overtime was extended that much and even Sheldon, who seemed enthusiastic yesterday, is exhausted. "If Doctor Gabelhauser calls me again in the next five minutes for more work, I swear I'm going to jump off our apartment window." Leonard stated as he and Sheldon walked up the stairs to their apartment.

"I find that highly unlikely Leonard." Sheldon stated. "But if you do feel thoughts about suicide, may I suggest a more positive attitude and medication."

Leonard looked at Sheldon with a 'seriously' face as they continued their way to their apartment. "Sheldon that was sarcasm." Leonard corrected.

"Oh drat, now I'm 4 to 27 about knowing if statements are sarcastic this month." Sheldon complained as Leonard placed the keys in their apartment door knob. In doing so, Penny arrived at her apartment window. As she climbs in she looks at a full-view mirror and gave a low whistle.

"Damn! I look good." Penny exclaimed happily as she posed, showing off her new and improved body. Penny than frowned; "Does this outfit make my butt look big?" Before the symbiote could reply, Penny hears Sheldon and Leonard outside her apartment door. "I want to talk to Leonard, but we might need to change our clothing." Penny stated quietly to the symbiote.

"No problem, just imagine what you want to wear."the symbiote replied. Penny imagined being in her clothes and in doing so, opened her eyes. She found herself wearing her pink shirt and Denim jeans she wore yesterday, along with her sneakers and grey hoodie. The blonde smiled.

"I'm beginning to like our partnership symbi." Penny said quietly as she opened her door. "Hello Leonard! Sheldon." Penny greeted happily before greeting the latter in a deadpan voice.

"Penny, why are you up so early?" Leonard asked as he opened his apartment door. Sheldon is also curious. Being that it is the crack of dawn, Penny is normally fast asleep. But today, she is awake and perkier than a child on Christmas.

"Well, you know…" Penny began. "We decided that waking up earlier is great for living life to its fullest."

"Who's 'we'?" Sheldon asked curiously, not liking Penny's sudden change in attitude.

Crap on a cracker. Penny thought to herself as she thought of an excuse. "Um… my father!" Penny quickly answered. "Yeah, my father wants me to be more active and enjoy life more."

Sheldon gave Penny a confused look before she walked past him to leave the building. "Wait Penny!" Sheldon yelled which caught Penny's attention. She turns around to see Sheldon next to her.

"What do you want Doctor Whacadoo?" Penny asked him, still angry of what Sheldon said to her yesterday.

"I just want to apologize." Sheldon stated to Penny, while panting. She raised her eyebrow in surprise. Sheldon apologizing? This she gotta hear. "I'm sorry if I insulted you last night. It's just that no one should be in my room because I have private belongings that I find very personal."

"Yeah, whatever Sheldon." Penny replied coldly to Sheldon. "Oh and, never insult me again. Got that?" Penny concluded in a threatening tone which Sheldon backed up from Penny. She then exited the building. Not liking Penny's attitude, Sheldon returned to his apartment door wondering how her feelings changed dramatically so quickly. Regardless, Sheldon is still tired from last night at the university and felt a good nap will make things better. He opened the door and found Leonard fast asleep on the couch. Sheldon sighed and entered his room, ready to change into his pajamas. But before he does, a piece of glass shatters under his shoes. He investigates and his eyes spread wide in horror. The container that held the symbiote is on the floor, shattered.
