The curse of the Man-Spider
Last time so did Peter start to get pain attacks in his sides from time to time, making his life as Spider-Man more difficult, but he knew was not normal pain and that it had to do with his spider powers, when he later check so did he find a mutation in his DNA and he also learned that his body was going to mutate but into what he didn't know, how will Spidey get out of this?
Chapter 2- Michael Morbius
Peter was lying on his back on his bed, he looked at his alarm clock, it was now 5.00 am, he hadn't been able to sleep at all because he kept thinking about yesterday, the day he discovered that he had a mutation inside of him that could break out any day now and turn him into a monster, he thought back to the others reaction when he told them about that he would turn into something that wasn't human.
FLASHBACK,
Everyone looked at Peter in shock over what he had just said, then his aunt grabbed his shoulders, "What do you mean that you won't be human anymore Peter?" Peter didn't look her in the face, "Exactly what it sounds like aunt May, I will transform and based on my powers I am a 100 percent sure that I will turn into some kind of human spider creature".
Everyone in the room got a look of horror on their faces and May took a few steps back and covered her mouth with her hands, George then spoke: "Do you know how to stop this?" Peter looked at his computer, "I will defiantly do everything I can to stop this, I don't want to turn into whatever I'm going to transform into, but even though I'm smart I'm no expert in this area, I'm going to need help". Gwen put a hand on his left shoulder, "I will help you Peter, and together we will find a way to fix this problem before it gets out of hands".
END OF FLASHBACK,
I'm glad that I have Gwen by my side and that she is determined to help me find a cure, but I don't think even the two of us together will be enough, I need someone who is truly a expert on genetics, Peter thought as he sighed.
Then Peter realized who could help him, Dr Connors and Mrs Connors, they could teach a class about genetics in their sleep, but he decided to wait with calling Dr C until a little later, so Peter kept lying there and was now just waiting for the time to move so that he could make a call to Florida.
ONE AND A HALF HOUR LATER,
Peter sat up and took his cell phone, he looked at the door, he hoped that his aunt wouldn't come in while he was calling, he knew that Dr Connors and his family had decided to come back to New York now that they didn't need to fear that Miles Warren would tell the world that Dr Connors was the Lizard but if he remembered right they wouldn't be back before a few weeks from now and he didn't have that kind of time because from what he could see from his DNA he had a few day max a week before he would mutate into some kind of spider creature, he hated that he had ask this of Dr C but he really needed his help.
Peter dialed the number, it took a few tones but soon so did he hear someone answer on the other side, "Hello this is Curt Connors", Peter took a deep breath and said, "Hello Dr Connors, it's Peter", "Peter, why are you calling at this early, have you gotten enough sleep tonight?"
Peter sighed and decided to go straight to the point, "I have actually not been able to sleep at all tonight Dr C and that's why I'm calling you, I really need your help and fast".
LATER THAT DAY,
Peter and his friends had just finished their English class and was now on their way to their biology class, but since it was a few minutes left until class so dragged Harry, Gwen and MJ Peter into a empty room and Harry stood at the door to make sure that no one would hear them while he at the same time would listen to Peter.
"Okay Peter what's wrong? We can see that there is something more about that mutation of yours that you're not telling us". Peter sighed when he heard Gwen say that because he knew that he wouldn't be able to fool them, "The thing I didn't tell you yesterday was that my mutation grows faster and faster with each hour, I guess that I only have a few days before I turn into a monster, maybe a week if I'm lucky".
Harry, Gwen and MJ looked at him in horror after hearing that, they had maybe only a week on them to find the solution to this, "Your aunt don't know about this right?" Peter shook his head at MJ's question, "No she doesn't, I didn't want her to worry about me too much, but I called Dr Connors earlier this morning and told him about this". While Peter said that he remembered back to the conversation he had with Dr Connors.
FLASHBACK,
"I really need your help and fast, I have a mutation disease and once it breaks out I will be a monster similar to the Lizard but I will be a spider-like creature", "Peter, are you sure about that? If that's true then why hasn't it shown up until now?"
Peter sighed, he could understand why Dr Connors was shocked, "It has been laying dormant inside of me since I got my powers and from what I could see I have only days maybe just a week before I transform, I hate to ask this but could you get to New York faster than planned because I really need your help", "Peter after all you have done for us we owe you this much at least, we can be there at midnight in two days and we will work day and night if we have to in order to find a cure for you". Peter smiled and thanked Dr Connors before he hung up.
END OF FLASHBACK,
Peter told his friends about his conversation with Dr Connors, Harry looked a little worried, "It's good that they're going to help, let's hope that you can keep that mutation at bay until they can get here". Gwen gave Harry the look and MJ gave him her version of the look as well but Peter stopped them before they could argue, "It's okay Gwen and MJ, Harry has a point, we don't know when my mutation will break out, it could happen tomorrow if we're unlucky".
At that moment so saw Harry Mr Warren come and they went to have their biology class, Mr Warren was still recovering from the shock of the crimes that his brother Miles Warren had committed but he had gotten over it pretty good, he stood in front of the class, "Now class we will have a new student joining us today, he has recently moved to New York and I hope you will treat him well, he should be here any moment".
At that moment so did someone knock on the door and Mr Warren said come in and the door open, almost every girl in the class gasped as a handsome black haired boy came in, he walked over to Mr Warren before he turned to the class, "Hello my name is Michael Morbius and I hope we will get along". Mr Warren told him to sit next to Peter and he walked over to him, as he sat down he asked: "Since you last name is Parker I assume that you're Peter Parker, the principal and all the other teachers I have met speaks highly of you", Peter nodded and said hello to Michael and welcomed him to Midtown High.
AFTER SCHOOL,
Harry, Gwen and MJ had offered to show Michael around, "Where is Peter, I would like to talked to him a little more", Gwen, Harry and MJ looked at each other but before they could say anything so did they here the students cheer and they looked up and saw Spider-Man pass over their heads, Harry, Gwen and MJ knew that he was going to sneak into the ESU lab and work on a cure on his own while they waited for Dr Connors and his family to come back to New York. Michael smiled, "So that's the famous Spider-Man, I have heard about him but this is the first time I have seen him". Harry, Gwen and MJ looked at each other they smiled at each other, Michael should just know that he knew Spider-Man's other identity.
A FEW MINUTES LATER AT THE ESU,
Spidey landed on the roof to the lab, he looked down and saw that no one was there at the moment, he opened the roof window and jumped down, he took off one of his gloves and took two vials before he cut his finger and filled the vials with blood, he then took some of his blood and put it under the microscope only to see that his mutated cells had increased much after only a day, and he then began to work.
ONE HOUR LATER,
Peter had found what he thought could help him with his mutation, from the sample he tested the serum on the mutated cells was withdrawing and his cells returned to normal, but it was still unsure what could happen, he put the sample and one of the vials with blood in his locker, since Dr Connors was coming back so was Peter and Gwen still interns at the ESU but they were not really allowed inside the lab until Dr Connors returned.
He wrote down the formula to the serum before he poured it into two vials and put one in his locker and then took the other one as well as the other vial of blood and jumped up and slingshot himself out of the roof window and made his way to Gwen's house since he figured that she should be home by now.
10 MINUTES LATER,
He landed on the roof of the house next to the Stacy's backyard, he made sure no one saw him and jumped to the tree that was in their backyard, he looked at her window and saw her sit at her desk reading a book, he broke of a twig and threw it at her window, she looked up and looked out through the window and saw Spider-Man sitting in their tree, she opened her window and signaled to him to come in fast, he jumped from the tree and towards her window, she stepped to the side as he came in through the window before he took off his mask.
"Did you make any progress Peter?" Peter smiled and took out the vials with both his blood and the serum, "I have made a serum that seems to make the mutation withdraw and my cells are becoming normal, but even so it might still get reversed so I have decided to give you a sample of my blood and the serum so that you can check it here at your home while I sneak back to the lab later, I can't do it at home since aunt May is so worried and if she founds me doing experiment with my blood she will be even more worried".
Gwen nodded and took the vials, she then put them down and kissed Peter, "We and Dr Connors and Mrs Connors will find a solution Peter, I promise you", Peter smiled and put his mask on again, he looked to make sure that no one saw him and jumped out through the window and made his way home so that he could check that his aunt was okay.
A FEW MINUTES AT FOREST HILLS,
Peter entered his house through the door for a change since he usually came in through his bedroom window now that his aunt knew his secret, she came towards him, "Peter are you okay, have you had more pain attacks?" Peter felt bad for making his aunt worry so much, it could cause her to have another heart attack, "I'm fine aunt May sorry you to worry you so much". May smiled at him, "No I'm sorry for bringing it up, even though we take it bad, you are the one who is really suffering from this". Peter looked down and aunt May apologized again and told him that dinner was ready and he was happy that they were of his topic of his mutation and they went into the kitchen and sat down to eat.
A FEW HOURS LATER,
Michael had been walking around the city to explore it and now he was looking at ESU, he planned to enter that college once he was finished with High School, he was about to go home to his apartment when he saw someone sneak up to the doors to the lab, once he looked closer he saw that it was Peter Parker, he saw Peter sneak in and out of curiosity he followed him.
A FEW MINUTES LATER INSIDE THE LAB,
Peter stood at a desk and held the vials with his blood and the serum, he had decided to use the serum on all of the blood, he took and poured the serum into the vial of blood while he checked the blood in the Petri-dish, he took it out while he cleaned the vial the serum had been in, he looked at his blood and he saw that his cells was still normal, but even so they could still change, suddenly his cell phone began to vibrate, he took it out and saw that it was his aunt, he answered, "hi aunt May, you want me to come home right now, okay I will be home soon".
He took and washed away his blood from the Petri-dish and cleaned it, he then took and put his blood in his locker, he then snuck out of the lab and towards the exit, but what he didn't know was that someone had been watching him experiment with his blood.
Michael walked into the lab and went over to Peter's locker, since he was really intelligent as well he had managed to memorize Peter's combination for his locker, he opened it and took out the vial with blood, he put some under a microscope and saw with amazement the incredible blood in front of his eyes, he reached into his pocket and took out his mini video camera.
"Research log 1: I have found out that my new friend Peter Parker has managed to create a formula that can give a person incredible strength and I will find out how he did it".
A FEW HOURS LATER,
Michael was getting frustrated because he couldn't understand what Peter had done with the blood, even though Peter was one of his new friends so couldn't he accept that someone that was the same age as him was smarter than him, he looked into the microscope again and failed to see that a vampire bat came in through the open window that Spider-Man had forgotten to close, it flew towards the vial with blood, the bat caused the vial to fall and the blood got spilled out on the desk and it began to drink the blood.
However Michael heard the vial fall to the desk and turned around and saw the bat drink the blood, he tried to get it away from the blood but that caused the bat to get angry and it flew towards him and bit his hand, he screamed and tried to shake it off but he couldn't, he suddenly saw a scalpel and stab it in the bat's head killing it and then the dead bat fell to the floor.
But by drinking Peter's blood so had the bat changed, the genetic altering that had been made on the spider that bit Peter was inside his blood and had made the bat able to transfer some of its genetics to another being and that is exactly what had happened. Michael felt great pain in his body, he tried to put his hands on the desk to support himself but his hands slipped and he fell to the ground, then his body began to change, his hair became blue and spiky, his skin turned white and his nose became like a bat's and he got claws on his fingers and also two long and sharp fangs in his mouth.
Looks like another problem has arrived, can Peter help Michael while he tries to find a cure for himself or will Michael be stuck as what he is now forever? Continue reading to find out and please review.
