And chapter three to which will show the Avengers deciding Spider-man's fate and discovering a bit more info on him and won't lie it's kind of depressing.

Avengers Tower Medical observation room June 1st 2:58 PM
Jessica entered the observation room to see all current Avengers and Tony sitting around the observation room, or in Adam's and Steve's case standing. She also saw on the largest monitor a video of Spider-man still restrained and on display beneath it was a bunch of stats of his blood pressure, heart beat, etc.
Steve spoke first "Jessica had did your, ah conversation go?"
"Seeing as you guys apparently saw it I'll just say that HYDRA really and I mean really went the extra mile for this guy." Jessica stated all though she was a bit annoyed that the team was spying on her rather embarrassing one sided conversation.
"Sorry Jess" started Janet "But we were a little curious on how he would react to seeing you. I mean he does have some clue on who you are right?"
"Honestly I don't even know if he's aware that he's not with HYDRA anymore. Who knows, maybe he thinks this is some kind of test created by his handlers to see how he will react to being captured." Jessica said tiredly as she made her way to a seat that was free next to Clint.
Tony spoke up next "What about the little growl thing he did earlier? That's really the first emotion and reaction I've seen from him since he got here."
Jessica looked a little sheepish and ashamed "I tried to use my phenomes to try and get him to relax because he seemed tense. Instead I guess I made him angry or uncomfortable"
"Wait…" Clint started "are you saying that your lovely charm and good looks didn't affect this guy? Man, I'm actually torn between admiring the guy and feeling bad for him"
Jessica gave the archer a thoughtful look before saying "I should slap you for that, but it looks like Spider-man did plenty of that earlier, shame." She said with false disappointment.
"Okay let's get back to the matter at hand here. We still have a highly dangerous person not 20 feet from us that was able to take on Clint, Cap, and Natasha all on his own and give Stark and Pym here trouble" Adam said wanting the conversation to get back to why they were all here in the first place.
"He's right. Jessica since you're here we would like to hear you input on what should be done with this Spider-man" Steve said
"We could try letting Xavier get a look at him, see if there's anything that HYDRA may have put in his head" Janet offered
"We could –" Steve stared before JARVIS, Tony's A.I. interrupted
"I apologize for interrupting sir but I have finally finished decoding the last of the electronic files from the HYDRA installation that Mister Stark had downloaded" came the electronic artificial voice with a slight English tone to it.
The other Avengers all looked eager to hear more info on their mystery man.
"What you've found JARVIS? Hopefully a name because while Spider-man is a pretty good name, I think people will start thinking that Spider-woman here and he are a couple." Tony asked his faithful cyber butler
"It appears that Spider-man was born into the program. His mother who was captured was named Mary Parker wife to the late Richard Parker who had reported her missing after she didn't come home from his brother and sister-in-law's home. She at the time was almost 4 months pregnant. After her capture HYDRA had her injected with an advance form of the serum used on miss Drew in an attempt to see if her child would be able to integrate the serum into its development and gain any kind of spider like abilities." JARVIS said
The assembled heroes couldn't help but be shocked or in Jessica and Janet's case horrified at what happened to Mrs. Parker and her than unborn son. Steve, Adam, and Clint had a stony expression on their faces that clearly showed that they were beyond angry at the fate the woman and their temporary ward endured. Stark and Hank looked beyond on disturbed at what the HYDRA scientist did and how it happened to an innocent woman and her unborn baby and Natasha while still expressionless had an aura around her that stated angry and a little sympathetic
Hank was the first to speak in a slightly shaken voice "D-did… Mrs. Parker survive?" but he already had a feeling on the answer.
"Not for long I'm afraid. When it became clear that Mrs. Parker wasn't going to survive, the director of the project had authorized to have the still developing child surgically removed and placed in a specialized womb like device that would continue to provide nourishment and growth while also allowing the embryo to be monitored." JARVIS said with what sounded like genuine sadness.
"Even after 70 years and with the Red Skull dead, HYDRA still proves it's an organization of monsters." Steve said both sadden at the fate of Mrs. Parker and angry at just how far HYDRRA was willing to go.
"What happened after the procedure?" Tony asked, not really wanting to know but having really no other choice.
"The procedure resulted in the death of Mrs. Parker whose body was disposed of afterwards. Spider-man was placed in the artificial womb where it was constantly monitored until birth. After the first 3 months the child was nearly lost which forced HYDRA to start a backup program that Miss Drew was part of in the event that the child died. Once the child was born he was gradually taught advance forms of hand to hand combat, espionage, firearms, tracking and stealth." JARVIS stated
"Wait hold up a second." Jessica started "Is there a name for Spider-man JARVIS? Maybe one that Mary and her husband Richard picked out before her death?"
"No miss Drew, I have scanned messages and recordings of both the Parker families and HYDRA security footage and Intel reports and it is shown that Richard and Mary Parker were waiting for the child to be born before picking a name. The scientist and security personnel had taken to calling Spider-man, Subject 01. " JARVIS answered
Jessica was horrified with how Spider-man came into being. First his parents were separated which resulted in his mother being experimented on and ending up dead with the man being placed in some kind of fake baby growing thing so has to keep him alive to further experimented on and he didn't even have a proper name.
Yeah she was kidnapped when she was like a month old and now reveled to be a backup incase Spider-man died but her origin wasn't that tragic in that she was practically ripped from her mother's womb and grown to kill and serve a group of evil bastards on par with the Nazis. Still it turns out Spider-man might have an aunt and uncle so maybe she could help reunite the broken and scarred family. That train of thought was crushed with what was revealed next.
"Jarvis" Adam said "what happened to Spider-man's aunt and uncle?"
"Benjamin Parker was killed when he saved a woman and her daughter from being shot in a convenience store robbery eleven years ago. His wife May Parker died three years ago to a severe heart attack while she was visiting a friend of hers in San Francisco." JARVIS replied
'…Well shit, their goes that idea' came the saddened thought of a now depressed Jessica. From the looks on the other's faces they were likely thinking the same thing.
Janet looked like she was about to cry. The woman who is known to the world as the Wasp and considered the emotional core of the team had seen a lot of horrifying things in her career as a hero, and this was definitely in the top 5 for her.
"So he has no family left?" Janet asked as she looked at the monitor that showed Spider-man now apparently asleep.
"I'm afraid not Mrs. Pym" JARVIS replied.
The entire room was quite for a moment as they thought about the information they have just learned regarding the man not even 30 feet from them.
All of a sudden the door opened, catching everyone by surprise.
And in walked Nick Fury, director of SHIELD and to many of the Avengers the biggest asshole they've ever met.
Fury was a white male who looked to be in his 60's but looked to be in top physical health. He had an eyepatch on his left eye and was wearing a sort of blue combat suit the most SHIELD personnel have taken to wearing. He was flanked by Maria Hill on one side and Phil Coulson on his other. Both looked uncomfortable to be here, especially Coulson.
"Rogers, is there a reason why you thought it prudent to take a member of HYDRA back to your HQ and place him in your medical ward like he's a patient?" Fury demanded as he crossed his arms and glared at the star spangled Avenger.
Steve continued to stare at the man who had more or less just broken into their tower. From what Steve could see in the corner of his vision, Tony looked angry and was already thinking of ways to up the security. Steve looked back to Fury and said "Director Fury I was unaware that you would be visiting, I'm afraid we are a little busy."
"Cut the bullshit Rogers, why isn't this man in my custody like his compatriots?" Fury said
Adam then spoke up "Jessica, Janet, go keep Spider-man some company." Adam wanted the man to be watch in person especially if Fury was here. Something was telling him that Fury is aware of who and what Spider-man is and will likely try to apprehend him.
Jessica and Janet immediately got up and left the observation room and headed for Spider-man's room. All ready knowing why they were asked to leave. Adam wanted them to be there in person incase Fury tried to pull a fast one.
"Coulson, Hill go with them in case they need help getting the man a tissue" Fury ordered his two top agents.
"Yes sir" came the response of both agents at the same time.
They both followed the two female Avengers out, leaving Fury alone with Captain America, Iron Man, Blue Marvel, Black Widow, Giant Man and Hawkeye to discuss the current situation.
"Now then…" started Fury "Why have you yet to release this man into my custody?"
"Spite, mostly" came Stark's response "and since he's an Avenger problem, not SHIELD we decided not to bother you. I'm sure your too busy screwing the world up more than it already is to have time to deal with the man."
Tony Stark always had something smart to say and took great joy in annoying people, Particularly Fury.
"I make time for people that can apparently take on almost all of the Avengers and nearly win." Fury stated and looking pointedly at Clint, Natasha and Steve.
"Nah we had him smack us around to keep us humble. Can't let these powers of ours go to our head now." Clint said
"He's a threat. A threat that needs to be contained" Fury said
"You mean he's a threat because you don't have him under your thumb" Steve challenged
Fury then rebuked "A man of his skills and abilities left unchecked is a danger –"
Natasha was the one to interrupt Fury "He isn't being left unchecked. Spider-woman and I have taken to being his handlers."
This caught everyone by surprise.
"You and Drew?" fury said with a mix of disbelief and amusement
"They are the best suited with helping the man recover from the trauma HYDRA has placed on him, and they will be able to deal with him the most effectively should he try anything" Rogers defended
"From the surveillance cameras SHIELD has reviewed I highly doubt Romanov here could stop him even if she wanted." Fury said
"I was unprepared for him. Now that I know what he can do I can plan put how to deal with him, and with Spider-woman's powers of… persuasion it shouldn't be too hard to rain him in if we must." The Black Widow said
"Translation Fury, we got it handled now get the hell out of my tower before I have Adam here toss you out" Stark said
Fury was quite for a moment before saying "I want updates on him. The first sign of you losing control of him and you relinquish custody to me."
Steve didn't look particularly happy but nodded in agreement.
Fury than contacted Hill and Coulson and told them to meet him on the landing pad outside for pick up and then left.
The Avengers were quite for a moment before Hank spoke up "He's going to try something. He's likely already aware of everything about Spider-man from the captured HYDRA personnel he has and will try likely create a scenario where we have no choice but to hand him over"
The others seemed to agree with that statement before Clint said "Hey Nat… are you sure you want to be this guy's handler? I know Jessica will probably want to help Spider-man in any way she can already but why you?"
Natasha was quite for a moment before replying "Jessica will need help and I'm the only other one here that can help her. Unless you all prefer Logan to help instead?"
"Oh god no" Adam said with a chuckle "That last thing we need is another Wolverine running around this time with spider powers"
"I second that" Hank said with a grin
"Yeah" Steve and Clint said at the same time
"Technically he wouldn't be called a Wolverine because of his powers but I don't need him and Logan cleaning out my liquor cabinet faster than I can breathe." Tony joked "Now if anyone needs me I'm off to change and perfect our security so eye patch can't get back in as easily"
"I'll help you out" Adam said as he followed Tony out of the observation room leaving Clint, Steve, Natasha, and Hank alone.
"Well… let's go see how the Wasp and Spider-woman are handling Spider-man" Clint said as he stood up and began to make his way to Spider-man's room.
The rest of the Avengers followed the purple archer also wanting to break the news to Jessica and Janet on what happened.
And done. So we found out more about Spider-man, and we see Fury try to have him taken and placed under his watch. Next chapter will deal with Jessica, Janet, Hill, and Coulson and to a degree spider-man who will also be getting his name.
And don't worry Fury isn't nowhere near close to giving up trying to get Spider-man
