Spider-Man: Face It Tiger You Just Hit The Jackpots Interlude Part 1 of 3
This interlude takes place either shortly before or during the second act of Face It Tiger I haven't determined yet if the ones in the interlude will be introduced to the main story all at once or one by one. When I finish the interlude I'm going to combine the two parts of the prelude and the three of the Interlude into two one shots and leave this story for a while. Thanks for your support.
Marvel Mangaverse (Marvel 2001)
After their last adventure Peter and Mary Jane had retired as superhero/ninjas and moved to a remote locale on the island of Japan. They had wed discreetly and lived undisturbed for years. But things changed suddenly. Scarcely a month past his nineteenth birthday Peter was disturbed by dreams as well as a mysterious spider-bite he believed them connected to Venom and against her wishes had donned his costume once more and departed to face his brother. It had been too many days since he had left and she knew something had gone wrong. Fearing the worst she put on her costume and prepared to go out to the temple herself looking for him when Venom entered.
"My brother is dead."
"This is your doing!"
"No not I. It is not our fault that Peter misinterpreted the warnings. There is a great danger a family of great might, inexhaustible in their pursuit of one's like him… and us. One of their number named Jennix appeared and fed on his essence."
"But why did you come to me?"
"We were arguing he believed that there was an army of spiders he wanted to join to combat this threat. I thought him delusional the Spider-Clan is no more and attempted to dissuade him quite forcefully. Then Jennix arrived and I… I cowered."
"You feel guilty?"
"In a manner of speaking but I'm here now… these things will not rest until they have devoured every spider in creation there is no time we must go."
"To hide? How will we know he is not stalking us at this very moment?"
"You will know believe me you will know when his is here but we are not hiding we are venturing to a place where the power of the spider will work in our favor."
She never could have imagined herself in this situation but then Peter had changed and they were facing extinction. She took the hand of the towering figure with an assurance that surprised even him. They had journeyed several hours in the snow and were resting in a cave when a portal opened Doom and Kang emerged from it. Venom and Spider-Woman readied themselves for confrontation.
"Jennix?"
"You are mistaken Mrs. Parker I am Victor Von Doom."
"And I am Kang the Master of Time."
"Do you come as friend or foe?" Venom inquired
"We come as allies of the Spider-Women." Doom said "We are from a reality very different from yours we want to reunite you with Peter but the decision is yours whether you go with us."
"But my husband is dead?"
"He is." Kang observed
"But how?"
"Will you accept our offer?"
"Do not trust these men they are villains." Venom counseled her
"Venom I know you are looking out for me and perhaps you fear facing this foe alone but I know there can be a noble warrior… somewhere inside you. You can face this on your own go to the great web on your own and I will see Peter again! Perhaps we will meet again someday."
"So it's agreed then?" Doom asked
"Yes I'm going."
As MJ joined Doom and Kang Venom reflected on recent events.
"You must be responsible for your own decisions so be it. But don't delude yourself your husband is dead… I have seen their quest weaved within the web of fate… they do not mean what you think."
The three entered the portal and vanished.
"Farewell Spider-Woman."
Venom sensed a terrifying presence.
"He is near."
And so he continued his journey racing towards the arena where he might summon an army of his own.
Marvel 1996
Elizabeth Tyne had been in prison for four months she had surrendered herself to the authorities and been found guilty of the murder of her father who had sexually abused her for years the case was very controversial as the woman who had tried to leave the past behind under the alias of Janine Godbe was thrust into the public eye. The sentencing had been light despite the mobs that had formed around the courthouse still she expected to remain for years within the walls of the prison before she could leave and see Ben Reilly again. Elizabeth had intended to stay for her full sentence but she soon found that she was pregnant and that the child would be taken from her after she was born after discovering this Ben intended to free her well before that day came but sadly she would never see him again. Early in the morning her slumber was interrupted by a flash of light. She awoke and saw an older woman within her cell very familiar not so much a twin one would but certainly a sister.
"Elizabeth Tyne you're time has come I'm here to free you."
"Did Ben send you?"
"I'm from a different universe my name is Mary Jane Watson-Parker but they call me Madame Web. Ben is dead he was killed two days ago in battle with the Green Goblin. I'm travelling across the multi-verse collecting widowed Mary Jane's and depositing them with one of the few surviving Peter's. Come with me and I'll take you to him I promise you'll fall in love with him just like you did his "brother."
"What you think that Peter and Ben are interchangeable that just because he's a clone I'd love the original the same?"
"Not at all though their paths diverged nearly six years ago they were the same at one point I thought you'd be at least curious to meet the man whom your lover sprang from. But setting you two up is not my primary purpose at all."
"You say you've taken Mary Jane's from across the multi-verse Reilly told me all about her years ago so I know there is one here so why have you picked me."
"Because of your child sister."
"Haven't you wondered why we look so alike? Havent you questioned why you and Ben were so comfortable with each other? Or why you were so similar to the last girlfriend he falsely remembered? Or why you had no problem with him being a clone? While there are many thousands of universes with Mary Jane's there are only a few dozen with Elizabeth Tyne's in every universe where you or your counterparts exist both MJ and Elizabeth are two of several genetically modified clones each slightly different of Red Sonja created by Peter's father Richard Parker as the ideal mate and mother of spider-powered people each was slightly different and placed in different households across the country your father wasn't even your father. You were the last to be produced. Richard died when Peter was just four years old and so he couldn't be there to set Peter up when he was of age but by some miracle Aunt May's next door neighbor was the Aunt of one of the clones and Ben met you in Salt Lake City the odds of that happening without know this or you're locations are nearly impossible mathematically it was..."
"Fate."
"Exactly."
"You said this was about my child?"
"Your child is in great danger there is an Inheritor waiting their patriarch Solus and as soon as your son Reilly Tyne…"
"How did you know I'd name him that?"
"Precog remember. As soon as your son's born Solus will break into the facility and drain the totemic energy out of him killing him."
"Why…Why would someone do something so? Because they are nearly immortal and do not care for anything so petty as a human life even a child's. Reilly is dead I know what it's like to be a mother my Peter and I had two children before one of these monsters killed him before my eyes there will be nowhere in this world they can't find your son The Master Weaver however has concealed some realities from their senses you'll be safe there with all the widows."
"Is wonder if there is an Elizabeth in the world you're taking me?"
"Yes and she's still in prison living out her term not pregnant though she hasn't been told that her Ben is dead as well."
"I'll have to do something about that. For the sake of my child and in memory of Ben I'm coming with you "Madame Web" glad to have you "Janine" Madame Web opened the portal and Elizabeth and her unborn child entered their new life not knowing what adventures might await them sure only that they could trust their new friend.
