Authors Notes: This is episode/chapter that begins the Ronald, Lisa Arc.


The Spider

Late at night at Masters international labs, A professor named Cameron Stiener was working with his teenage son Ronald, on a device called the Neogenic Recombinator.

Ronald was on the phone, "Good night baby, I'll talk to you tomorrow" he walked over to his father and asked, "So Dad, what is this thing supposed to do?"

"Well Ronald, some humans and animals have this gene in them called the meta-gene. It grants them the potiental to develope superhuman capablites." he pointed at the Neogenic recombinator, "This device is suposed to activate it." the professor answered.

"Cool." he commented

"Yes. Cool indeed." the professor replied his son.

Professor Steiner took the machine and placed it before a chimpanzee, a monkey and a gorilla. The professor and his son put on goggles.

Ronald said jokingly, "What are animal rights groups going to say about this?"

"Nothing! Because son what people don't know won't hurt them." the professor answered, He activated the machine, "Neogenic recombinator test number 36459. Engage in 3 2 1."

The machine sent out a beam that hit the primates. Unbeknownst to them both a spider was on top of the gorilla. The spider began to glow green, it jumped off of the gorilla and crawled all the way to Ronald.

The professor scanned the primates to observe any changes, he threw his books to the ground in frustration, "Aghh! still nothing. If I don't come through with results soon Masters will cut my funding." he screamed.

Ronald went to his dad to reassure him "Don't worry dad, I'm sure...Ahhh!"

Ronald had been bitten by the spider. He began to transform into a ape-spider hybrid. His face gained three pairs of eyes, his body began to grow large and become more gorilla-like, he grew two extra sets of gorilla arms, his skin turned purple and he gained black fur and yellow fangs.

Ronald rawed and passed out the professor ran to his son and screamed, "Ronald!"


The next day, at 14:15 pm, the Chin was flying through the sky said to himself "Ah man, I can't believe this."

The Chin took out his phone and looked at the time, " Crap! I'm going to have to hit the jets.", he increased his speed and he flew into an alley next to his sister's highschool Reefside.

He landed, quickly changed in an alley and made it to the front gate, he looked around and saw his sister standing with a angry expression on her face.

"You're late!" she yelled.

"Sorry kid, I was working on a story for the Blabbity and time got away from me." he apologized.

Lisa rolled her eyes "What ev's. Lets just go, were's the car."

"The car?" Charles asked.

"Ya the car! How else did you get here." asked Lisa.

"Uhm...I took a cab." Charles lied.

Lisa began to get frustrated "Fine then where is it!?"

Charles didn't know what to say so he kept quiet.

Lisa walked to the street "Aghh!..Fine I'll call one."

Lisa whistled and a taxi came to them. They got into the taxi.

Lisa kept quiet for the most of thier trip home, Charles broke the silence saying, "Look I know I was..."

"Late!" she interrupted.

"And..." he continued.

The taxi stopped and the driver said to them "That will be 13.50."

Chuck reached in his jacket but couldn't find his wallet, "I...Uhm...Forgot my wallet."

Lisa rolled her eyes "And without money." she pulled out her purse and paid the driver.

She left the taxi in a huff and mumbled to herself "Picked me up late, made me pay the fair, might as well have gone home myself."

Charles followed her and said "Look kid I messed up big. I'll make it up to you."

"How!?" she asked.

"By taking you to the Chip Skylark concert tomorrow." he answered smugly revealing two tickets.

"Really! How did you get tickets!" she screamed, she grabbed them from him, "They've been sold out for weeks."

"Well the Blabbity has asked me to interview him." he answered, "so they gave me two tickets and..." he revealed the passes, "These back stage passes."

Lisa squealed in excitement.

"So I guess this makes up for being late and not paying the cab fair." he commented.

"Totally!" she agreed.

Lisa's phone rang.


At the professor's lab a few minutes earlier on the other side of town, Ronald was laying unconscious strapped to a table in his father's lab.

Ronald awoke and screamed "Where am I!?" he looked at himself in the mirror, "What happened to me!?"

The professor and his staff ran in, Ronald screamed, "Dad! what happened to me!?"

"It seems your DNA has been mutated with gorilla and spider DNA, it seemed to have happened because of a spider bite, I'll run some tests to find out more." answered the professor.

Ronald calmed down and asked "Can I make a call."

"Of course." the professor answered.

The staff unstraped him from the table, one of them gave him a phone.

He took the phone, "Thank you."

He tried to use the phone but his hands were to big to use it properly.

"Aghh!" he screamed in frustration and threw the phone at the wall.

The staff began to get scared, the professor ran to his son, "Don't worry, he's just getting used to his new body." he reassured his staff, "Who do you want to call, your mother?" asked the professor.

"No, I want to call Lisa." Ronald answered.

"Ronald, I don't think that's a good idea." the professor commented.

Ronald began to growl.

"But if you feel you have to, here." the professor continued.

Professor Steiner dialed the number and held the phone to his son's head.

The phone conversarion began.

Lisa: Hello.

Ronald: Hey baby.

Lisa: Ronny! is that you? you sound different.

Ronald: You could say I've gone through changes.

Lisa: Okay...I've been trying to call you all day, you weren't at school, what's going on with you.

Ronald: Nothing, I might not be in school for a while I'll be in touch.

The phone conversation ended.

"So whats going on with Ronald?" asked Charles.

"We need to go check on him." Lisa said with a serious voice.

"Why?" asked Charles.

"Something's wrong, I can feel it." she replied.

"Fine lets check it out, I don't have anything to do till tonight." Charles commented.

They got in thier car and headed towards Ronalds home.

Charles and Lisa walked to the Steiner's front door. They knocked and Ronald's mother Lois Steiner came out.

"Hey Mrs Steiner, have you seen Ronald?" asked Lisa.

Lois gave a worried look "He's not feeling well right now."

"Oh really that's bad can I see him." asked Lisa.

Charles super hearing activated. Lois's heart beat began to speed up, he could tell she was lying.

"No..he needs his rest." answered Lois, before shutting the door.

"What do we do now?" asked Lisa.

"Stay here, I'll check something out." Charles answered. He went to the Steiner's fence an climbed over it.

He began to use his X-Ray vision to scan the the house and only saw Lois, a maid and a small dog.

He climbed over the fence again and went back to Lisa.

"What did you find?" asked Lisa.

"She's lying, Ronald isn't here." he answered.

"What do we do now?" asked Lisa.

"We'll get to the bottom of this." Charles answered.


At 15:24 pm, Charles and Lisa drove to the Daily Blabbity.

Charles and Lisa entered the Blabbity office.

"What are we doing here?" asked Lisa.

"Consulting the master." answered Charles.

They walked up to Taylor whom was working on her computer.

He greeted her, "Hey Tay."

"What do you want?" asked Taylor.

"Why do you assume I want something?" asked Charles.

"Because everytime you want something you want something from me you say 'Hey Tay'." she answered.

"Fine you got me. Are you able to track where a call was made?" asked Charles.

"Sure I can." she answered, "But why? Are you working on a story?"

"No my sister's worried about her boyfriend. His mom lied about his whereabouts so were just checking." he answered.

"Please can you help." asked Lisa.

Taylor smiled, "Fine, I'll help you but you owe me one."

After using her computer skills she found out where the call was being made, "I tracked the number to Masters International labs."

"Okay thanks Tay. Lets go kid." Charles said as he and Lisa left the building.


At 15:56 pm, Charles and Lisa were standing outside the building.

"How do we get in?" asked Lisa.

"This way." Charles pointed.

They made it to a back enterance. Lisa tried to open the door.

"Damn! It's locked." Lisa shouted.

"Let me try." Charles suggested. He used his super strength and broke through the door, "Must've been stuck."

They made thier way through a hallway looking from door to door searching for Ronald.

"Did you find anything?" asked Lisa.

"Ya, alot of interesting things, maybe I should write an exposè on this place " answered Charles.

Lisa glared at him.

"Or not." he continued.

They heard the foot steps of a gurad coming.

"Quickly, this way!" Charles whisperd.

They ran inside a room evading the guards. They heard someone breathing behind them. Lisa took a look back and saw a gorrila-spider monster.

"Aaahhh!" she screamed.

Charles turned around and prepared to attack but stopped when the professor cried.

"No! That's my son!"

Lisa took a good look at him, "Ronny! What the hell happened to you!"

The professor explained Ronald's condition to Charles and Lisa.

"So you were bitten by a mutated radioactive spider." Charles commented, he smurked, "Where have I heard that before."

"Is there a cure?" Lisa asked.

"Unfortunately no." answered the professor.

Ronald's face became enraged, "What do you mean there's no cure!

"Ronald calm down, I only recently found out I could have cured you by the reversing the polarity of the recombinator when you were first bitten, but you've been mutated so long that your body has has adapted to this state." answered the professor.

Ronald started to hit the ground, walls and table in frustration.

Lisa ran up to him and said "Don't worry it will be okay."

"No, it's not! I'm nothing but a freak!" he screamed.

She attempted to walk closer but was hit by one of his arms and sent flying to the wall knocking her out.

"Lisa!" Charles cried.

Ronald then ran out of the Lab.

Charles looked back at the professor and yelled "Take care of her! I'll go after Ronald!"

"What are you going to do?" asked the the professor.

"Call a friend." answered Charles.

Charles exited the buliding and changed into the Crinson Chin and flew after Ronald.

Ronald was rampaging in the street when the Crimson Chin landed infront of him.

"Hey fang face. what's up with the King Kong act." commented the Chin.

"Your that Chin guy that the news talks about!" shouted Ronald.

"Not to boast, but ya I am." boasted the Chin, "Now again what's with the smashing?"

People began to watch in awe as the Chin was trying to talk Ronald down.

"I was infected and now I am this freak." answered Ronald.

"What's your name?" asked the Chin pretending not to know.

"Ronny...Ronald Steiner." answered Ronald.

The Chin flew in closer, "Look kid I know how it feels to have your life change forever, I mean I have a chin the size of texas, but this happening doesn't mean it's the end for you."

Ronald began to calm down, the police came racing in jumping out of thier cars and pointing guns at the Chin and him.

"Freeze freaks!" one of the cops shouted.

Ronald became enraged again, "You see that's all anyone is ever going to see me as, nothing but a freak!"

The Chin looked at the cops and shouted, "Stop! Your going to ruin everthing!"

The police began to fire thier guns at Ronald and the Chin. The Chin simply stood there while Ronald screamed in pain.

He rushed at the officers, he punched one and sent him flying, he grabbed another one's leg and preceeded to beat four more cops with him.

"No!" the Chin screamed, he tackled Ronald into a street lamp post, "Ronald! You have to calm down!"

"Screw you!" Ronald screamed, he used his second pair of arms to punch him into a building, "Until I'm cured Ronald Steiner is dead from now on I'm...What did you call me earlier?"

The Chin jumped out of the building, "What? Fang Face."

"That's it! I'm Fang!" he said as he charged at the Chin.

The Chin and Fang clashed, they pushed against each other, Fang used his extra arms to send him flying into a car. The Chin picked up the car and threw at Fang. Fang dodged it and crawled on the wall of a building.

"You don't have to do this!" screamed the Chin.

"Sorry Chin, but this world has a zero tolerance for freaks like you and me, so I'll put them down before they can put me down." he jumped at the Chin, who dodged him by flying.

Fang opened his mouth and sent a stream of web at the Chin that caught his arm and got him stuck to a wall. The Chin tried to break free but he couldn't, he then used his heat vision to try cut it but it didn't burn. The Chin got annoyed, "Ahh! screw it!", he used his strength and took the whole wall with him.

He went in to ram the wall into Fang, Fang opened his mouth again and this time he spat out acid that dissolved the wall, the web and burnt the Chins arm.

The Chin screamed, "Aahh! That hurt." realising what he just said, "That hurt."

The Chin charged at him hit, but Fang dodged and grabbed him. Fang began to squeeze him, the Chin struggled to break free. He swung his head and smacked Fang away with his chin.

The Chin rubbed his chin, "How about that, I should use this thing more often."

He charged at Fang again. Fang anticipated it and spat acid at his face, the Chin screamed in pain.

"Ahh! I can't see!"

Fang then jumped towards him and punched him so hard he was sent flying through multiple stone pillars, collasping the building on top of him.

When the dust settled it looked like the Chin was knocked out.

"Time to finish the job." Fang said to himself as he walked towards the Chin.

The professor came running through the crowd, "Ronald! You must stop this before you do sonething you regret."

Fang turned around enraged, "This is all your fault! I should tear you apart!" he picked up his father.

Before he could do anything the Chin hit him with a lamp post and said "Did you forget about me!?" in a serious tone.

Fang sent out another web stream that caught the Chins arm. The Chin pulled Fang forward and punched him hard in the stomach, he hit Fang hard in the face with his chin which sent him flying up, he pulled him down with the web and slammed him into the ground.

"This ends now!" the Chin screamed before tying Fang up in his own web and knocking him out cold with a punch.

The Chin flew away.

Charles came out of an alley way and went straight for the professor, "Prof Steiner, we have to talk."


Later that day, at around 17:34 pm, Charles went to go see his sister in the hospital.

"How's she doing doc." asked Charles.

"Don't worry Mr. Indigo, your sister only has a mild concusion." answered the doctor "She just needs some rest."

"Okay, thank you doc." replied Charles.

He walked into his sister's room and said "How are you doing kid?"

"Fine I guess." she answered, "What happened to Ronny?"

"He went on a bit of a rampage but the Crimson Chin stopped him." Charles answered.

"Is he okay?" asked Lisa.

"I think he'll be a bit sore but fine." answered Charles.

"Great." she replied, "Charles, can you do me a favour."

"Sure, what?" asked Charles.

"I need you to write about what happened to Ronny so at least people can understand what happened to him." answered Lisa.

"Already ahead of you, I organised an interview with professor tomorrow to at least help Ronalds case after all this happened." he happily commented.

"Good." she replied.

"Guess I'll leave you to rest." he commented.

"Ya." she replied.

While walking out he said "And I can assume you won't want to go to the concert tomorrow."

"Let's not get crazy Chuck." she replied while smiling.

"That's what I thought." he said smiling walking out, "And don't call me that."

At the professor's lab, The professor was in his lab with his wife.

"I promise you Lois, I won't rest until our son is human again." he said holding Lois's hand.

"I know." she replied.

Unbeknownst to him the recombinator was slightly damaged and was irradiating over some bandages.
