Recovering Sorry it's taken me a while to do this chapter.
Once they all made it back to the institute, they rushed to the med bays and placed Peter and Kitty on the beds. They were both still out, but Kitty was in a far worse state than Peter, Whose abilities seemed unclear in terms of their origins.
The Professor was really surprised when Peter was said to have new mutant abilities. Although they didn't see them, they could tell by his appearance, despite being battered. The legs were the obvious feature since they were twitching around every hour and then.
"That would explain why Cerobro informed me of a new mutant signature" The professor said to them. They all were surprised at this.
"So wait, your saying that somehow while he was under all that rumbled, his X-gene kicked in?" Scott asked.
"Indeed, I thought at first that because of the spider bite, his X-gene would have been held back, but it would appear that it was accelerated some time in the battle when he was under the rumble." The Professor explained.
" We'll have to ask him for further detail's as I cannot access his mind while he is recovering. It must be one of his abilities for when he is in this state, to block any telepaths who are trying to look inside his mind."
They all nodded and drawled their attention to Kitty. They took an X-ray of her to see the damage and it was critical, her bones were on the verge of snapping and her organs were 'misplaced'.
"Who or what could have done that to Kitty here?" The professor asked.
"Don't know, must of been Lance, not too sure since she was down when we came over." Scott said.
"I see, Jean you and I could help with her recovery by fixing her insides. It's not easy so I'll go for the bones while you replace the organs" The professor told her.
"Professor...I'm not sure if I can do that... I mean" Jean started but was cut off by Charles.
"Don't worry, it's not as hard as it looks, just concentrate and it will be a snap" The professor said reinsuring. Jean was nervous but nodded. They all knew that there was no other option. Scott placed his hand on Jeans shoulder to encourage her. Jean grabbed the seat next to Kitty and they both got to work. Before they did, Charles made sure that Kitty was in a dream state to hold back the pain from this.
The task was easier than it was first thought. Jean carefully moved the organs back into their right places. the intestine's were challenging but she eventually got them into place.
The professor on the other hand found it rather difficult to fix the bones. one or two were shattered and would have to be healed over time.
'Some times I wish we all had Logan's healing factor' The professor thought to him self as he fixed 4 bones. Her 2 arm joint bones would have to be healed in a few weeks. Everything else was fixed in good time.
'Jean you finished with her organs?' He asked as he finished fixing the final leg joint.
'just placing her bladder back, I'm just grateful that she ate before they left... and done' She replied.
They opened her eyes and saw that she looked in better condition than she was a while ago. The rest of the group seemed to have gone to their respective rooms to give Jean and Charles space.
"So what were the bones that couldn't be fixed then" Jean asked.
"Only two. The arm joints, they'll be fixed in a few weeks" Charles answered. She nodded and turned her attention to Peter was still passed out.
"Could it be that he is now a mutant like us?" Jean asked. Charles placed his hands on his head for a moment before answering.
"Perhaps, Cerobro did pick him up. But we can't find out how, as I said earlier that there are what appears to be mental blocks that prevent us from looking into his mind." He said. Jean nodded in understanding. They were both wondering what happened to him in the middle of the fight while he was under the rumble.
"Come on Jean, lets head to bed its getting late. We can check on him tomorrow if he get's up." The professor said to her. She walked out of the door with the Professor not far behind. he took one last look at them both before turning off the lights.
-The next morning-
Charles woke up peacefully as normal. He had a little stretch before sliding a bit onto his wheel chair. He used his powers to get flesh clean cloths on and wondered how Peter and Kitty were doing.
'Well the others except Kitty should be at school by now.' The professor thought to himself as he wheeled down the corridors. The med bays weren't to far away from his room so he figured that he should have some break first before checking on them.
When he got to the kitchen he saw that Logan was looking through the fridge, properly looking for another bear. His habits do tend to get on the professor's nerves but they didn't worry him because Logan's healing factor, prevents the alcohol he drinks, from making him properly drunk.
He noticed him and greeted him.
"Morning chuck, heard about what happened to Bug Boy and half pint." He said to Charles who was just getting his regular tea.
"Indeed you have. I'm concerned if Peter's X-gene might change his personality. Apparently he smashed Lance up last night to near death. It was fortunate that he stopped himself this time before making a mistake." he said calmly.
"I see. You know Chuck there's something familiar about Parker. His parent's were Richard and Mary right?" Logan asked.
"Yes they were why?" Charles asked.
"I know my memory isn't the best but I remember working with them two at S.H.I.E.L.D,I was there at the wedding as the best man and when they had their child." Logan told him. The professor was surprised by this, he was aware that Logan couldn't really look further into his past due to his amnesia.
" I say, you've had a lot of stuff happen in your life Logan" Charles said to him.
"Yes I have. The kid's got Richard's brain, Marys humour and both of their curiosity. Not to mention the thing about questioning orders." Logan said.
"How's they both doing Chuck?" Logan asked worried. He was like a father figure to Kitty and deep down cares for all of the kid's here.
"Well, I was planning to check on them both after break first. You can come if you like" Charles said.
" I would love to, but Fury wants me to meet him soon so I'll check later." Logan said. With that he walked out of the kitchen while drinking his beer.
After he finished eating, Charles wheeled down to the med bays and was surprised to see that Peter had already recovered from his injuries. He may not have Logan's healing factor but he does recover fast.
He noticed that he started to twitch and his eyes slowly started to open.
"My word, Storm you might want to see this" Charles called over the inter com near by.
Peter started to regain consciousness and the first thing he saw was a white celling. He sat up and saw that he was in the med bays back at the institute. He remembered fighting the brotherhood, getting crushed into the rumble and then. Hearing Kitty scream. Specking of Kitty.
"Kitty!" Peter shouted out as he looked over and saw her on a nearby bed. She looked tired out and battered.
"She's fine Peter, you can relax" A calm voice came. Peter turned and saw both Charles and Storm looking at him.
"How long was I out?" Peter asked.
" About a day, I thought you would still be out for another hour or something" Storm said in amazement.
"Peter this may not be the best time since you have just woken up but what happened under the rumble?" A new voice came. They all turned and saw the others there.
"I thought you were at school?" Storm asked.
"It's Saturday, we went out for fresh air" Jean said. They all nodded and turned their attention back to Peter, who was sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Well it's a little complicated but it started here" Peter started.
-flashback.-
"Great now what?" Peter thought out load as he struggled to hold the crane up. The rumble that Lance dropped on top of him increased the difficulty of getting out of this tight spot. The crane was heavy enough but this was beyond him with the rumble on top.
'I'm running out of air, my web shooters are busted and I'm getting weaker by the second' Peter thought as he was starting to get crushed by the pressure.
' Of all the maniac's I've come across, of all the murderers I've fought, this is how I go out?" Peter thought. His strength started to give out on him as he was buried along with the crane and rumble.
He heard a scream and that happened to Kitty, who sounded to be in deep pain.
'I'm sorry everyone. I'm sorry... Kitty" Peter said out loud weakly. He was about to give up and accept his fate when a new voice in his head started.
'It's not over yet Spider' The voice said. Peter checked his surroundings and saw that no one was there.
"Who said that!" Peter asked, his voice was weak and low.
'I did. I have been called many names in the past but you will come to know me as The Spider within you. You see young Peter, I am like a shadow in your brain, watching over you. Watching your every move and heroic actions. Watching you risk your own very live to save ungrateful lives for nothing. I am deeply impressed by you and have come to assist you in this situation.' The Spider said.
'What can you do to get me out of this mess?' Peter asked.
'By unlocking your very own X-gene, which has been dormant inside of you for quite some time' The voice answered. Peter would raise his eyebrows in surprise but due to his condition, he couldn't.
'You mean that I have an X-gene just like the others. I thought that my powers came from the spider-bite?'.
' They sort of did. the spider-bite did give you a portion of the X-genes abilities. however it would seem that it or so suppressed it, until now.' The spider said.
'What do you mean?' Peter asked.
'you see, deep inside your heart you have deep feelings for the one called Kitty, who is in great danger. This feeling has allowed me to get through to you X-gene and I have the ability to unlock it this very moment and give you your full potential' The Spider explained.
' You have a choice Peter, either die with the rumble and Kitty may die soon, or allow me to give you your full potential and save Kitty now.' The voice added.
Peter didn't hesitate to give an answerer, if he could save Kitty and him self then he'll do it. If there was any side effects he would deal with them later with the others.
' Do it' Peter demanded.
'Wise choice peter, remember I will always be a shadow in your brain watching over you. Stand by this may tickle a bit' The Spider said.
In a matter of moments Peter felt a rush of energy as he started to feel more a live than every before. He felt his strength return and he felt the X-gene work it's magic. In a flash of light he felt 6 new legs on his waist, claws on his fingers. He felt his eyes glowing as he figured he had night vision.
' You now have night vision, sharp claws on your fingers which are retractable, 6 spider legs on your waist, enhance speed, agility, strength, Spider-Sense and hairs on your body that can sense toxin airs or any anomalies that you spider-sense can't. Not to mention something you wanted, organic webbing that can come in any shape and sizes. Let's not forget a new set of psychic blocks that can resist even the most powerfull telepaths. ' The Spider explained.
'Wow, thank you' Peter thanked The Spider.
'It was no problem, now save Kitty and let fate decide your future' The Spider said.
Peter decided to get to work as he pushed up and found the crane and rumble to be completely weightless. He easily removed it and found that he was still wounded. His legs and left arm was bleeding and he at least had 3 or 4 broken ribs.
He got up and heard the scream. He turned and saw Kitty, being shaken up on the floor, from the inside out . He saw Lance being the cause. Lance was laughing evilly. Peter filled out with a emotion he hasn't felt for a while. Pure Rage. He could feel his eyes going red and his body taking over completely. He walked a bit before shouting really loud. His shout was nothing but full of anger, pain and rage as Lance looked in shock and saw him standing there.
"YOU GET AWAY FROM HER NOW!" Peter threatened. Once Lance stepped away from Kitty, Peter began by running up to Lance and delivered the mightiest punch he could give. He wasn't done there, he used four out of six of his new legs, to impale lance by the shoulder's and knee caps. He heard Lance cry out in pain when that happened. Peter then started to deliver a furry of punches and Kicks with his new found strength. He could hear the bones smashing, the organs busting. The blood dripping out as Peter slashed Lance. Peter could tell that Lance was nearly dead and used his new organic webbing to close the wounds up. He dropped Lance on the floor and rushed over to Kitty.
-Present-
"And then you guys came along and I passed out" Peter finished. The others were stunned after Peter finished. There was a silence that overcame them all. The silence broke when Charles spoke.
"So have you heard of this The Spider recently then?" He asked. Peter just shocked his head.
There was another silence until Peter spoke.
"How's Kitty doing then?" Peter asked with worry in his voice.
"She's doing quite fine, she'll wake up later. She needs to be careful, over the next few weeks for her two arm bone joints to heal" The professor answered. Peter let out a breath of relive. He was glad that Kitty was safe and okay from whatever Lance did to her.
"What happened to Lance?" Peter asked with a tint of hate.
"Well, over than the biggest beating you've given him, he was nowhere to be found, must have been taken to the brotherhood. He may be out for a long time" Scott answered. Peter let out a 'good' under his breath. They must have noticed as they raised an eye brow.
"What?, I hate the guy for what he did to Kitty" Peter said to them. Charles sighed.
"Peter, I know you've experienced a lot of pain in your life, but I teach people to control them self's, not just their gifts." he told him sternly. Peter looked down in shame, as he understood what he was on about.
"Now, I need you to rest for a while to recover." Charles said in his calm voice. Peter nodded. He only did so he can remain with Kitty and when she wakes up. Peter didn't actually need to recover as his healing factor has been slightly enhanced, although its not as fast as Logan's it still got the job done. The others walked out leaving Peter alone with Kitty. Peter checked the time, it was 3:30 and being for this long with out food had a bit of a impact on his metabolism, especially since he's had his potential unlocked.
He walked over to the fridge that was there and used one of his new legs to open the door, he pulled out one of the already made sandwiches. It wasn't much but it did the trick.
'Well for my stomach anyway' Peter thought to him self. He was still tired out, despite his rest and little snack. Peter noticed at the corner of his eye that Kitty was twitching a bit, she started to move around. Almost like she's in a nightmare. Peter panicked slightly, he sat down on the near by chair and took her hand in his. It was hot so it confirmed Peter's fears.
-In Kitty's nightmare-
"HELP!" Kitty screeched out. She was being chased by what appeared to be Lance, but something was different. His body armour had spikes on it, which are all covered in blood. His eye's had no irises and were completely black. He looked like a complete monster, with no mercy. Which was proved when he tried to smash his fist into Kitty's face when she was down. She only got out by phasing through the ground.
She found herself in some warehouse, it was almost plain except for a couple of crates. There was no light what so ever.
"HAHAHAHAHA!. You can not escape from me Kitty. I've killed your boyfriend. YOUR All ALONE NOW!" Lance yelled as he tore up the celling above. He landed hard, making a crater where he stood. Kitty was now trapped with no where to go as he stepped closer and closer. She was too terrified to phase her self to safety.
"Prepare to join him in DEATH!" He started. he grabbed her by the neck and started to crush the life out of her. Kitty struggled as she couldn't breath. She tried kicking him but they didn't faze him, instead he got madder.
"Time to put you out of your misery Kitty!" He yelled in her face. He placed his free hand on her chest and started to use his powers again.
"NO!" A voice came. They both turned and Lance was bashed out of the way by Peter. Peter looked at Lance straight at the eye as he got up with a smirk on his face.
"So, back for round two huh?" Lance said in a low voice. Peter charged at him, Lance guessed this move and ducked under his fist and sent his own into his gut. He ripped off Peter's mask and started punching him hard in the jaw. He carried this on for so long that his fist started to crack.
Kitty watched in horror as Peter started to get punched to death by her Ex.
"STOP IT!" She screamed. Lance ignored her and started to knee Peter in the stomach. Peter started to cough blood out as the pain got worse and worse.
"Time to die Parker" Lance said quietly. He then did what he did earlier to Kitty and started. This time Lance used the full extend of his Powers.
Kitty wanted to wake up desperately from this, but she couldn't. All she could do was see Peter die. Peter's bones started to break down, by now they would have been shattered and in pieces.
Lance stopped his semi-person quake and picked up Peter once again.
"Now to end this once and for all" Lance said. He ripped a massive hole in the ground. He placed Peter near the edge.
"I'll miss you. NOT!" Lance said. He kicked Peter one last time that sent him over the edge, literary . Kitty felt like she had been shot as she watch Peter fall and Lance close up the hole he made.
"PETER!" She screamed. Her vision started to give way as she started to wake up.
Kitty's eyes shot open as she woke up from her nightmare. She noticed that she was in the infirmary back at the institute. She was in a simple white shirt that was for the ones who had been injured in a fight, with the X-men symbol on her chest as it was on the others. But her current position didn't concern her, as much as real as the nightmare, appeared to her.
"Peter!" She yelled. She panicked slightly until two strong arms wrapped around her. She turned to see Peter next to her with a reassuring smile on his face. Tears started appearing on her eyes as she went into his arms. Peter just held her calmly as she cried on his shoulder. He started to pat her back in comfort, this slowed down the tears and she eventually stopped sobbing.
"I'm here Kitty, I'm here" He whispered, softly to hand still stroking her hair. She pulled away and stared at him in the eyes, she found her self lost in his dark brown orbs. While he found him self in a similar position while staring into her, ocean caring perils .They both started to smile at each over, wishing the moment didn't end.
'Please tell me that no one will barge through the door 'Peter thought.
Peter placed his hand onto her check, she found her self snuggling deeper into his touch and placed her hands around his neck. They slowly started to lean closer to each over. Peter checked with his enhanced spider sense to check if anyone was coming, he used his sensor hairs to check the air for anyone else's sent. They were in the clear.
Kitty couldn't believe that this is happening, she was about to kiss the man she has admired since they first met. She was prying that no one would walk in and spoil the moment .
Soon their lips meet each overs. They both felt a strong electric current go through them as soon as they kissed. Kitty's lips were rather wet from the crying of her almost real nightmare. Her lips danced with Peter's in perfect was a little inexperienced as she had a little amount , but Peter easily read that and genitally made sure that he wasn't going too fast.
But like Peter, Kitty was like a scientist, so she caught up .She pushed her tongue against his lips, begging for entrance. Peter granted it and their tongues started to wrestle. They both moaned as they danced around with each over's lips and tongues. Peters hands slid down to her hips as he picked her up, she wrapped her legs against his waist. They carried on making out as Peter led them to beds.
Kitty was laid on top of Peter as they lied down. They both eventually pulled away for oxygen. They were both blushing very deep and Peter was in awe at the sight in front of him. with her pink, sweet and smooth lips
"Wow" Peter just simply said. Kitty leaned down and placed her lips back on top of Peters. She started to traced her fingers around his strong, large chest as Peter rubbed Kitty's back. Peter started nibbling on Kitty's bottom lips as he whispered to her.
"Been wanting to do that for a long time" He whispered to her. Kitty started to blush even more, any more and she swore that her cheeks would have ignited.
"Your not the only one" She whispered. She gasped as he started to kiss her neck. Biting, sucking and kissing her flesh. He made sure that he leaves marks on her to show that she was his. She started to mess around with his hair, circling her fingers in-between his brown, locks. This caused him to moaned as well as he looked up at her.
She stretched her arms a bit when a pain shot through her elbow. She yelped a bit, making Peter jump.
"What's wrong?" He asked fully concerned.
"Ow. I don't know it like came from my arm joints. Must have been damaged." She said to him.
"Yes , they will take some time to heal, a few week's best, must be careful when stretching" A new voice came. They both jumped in shock as they saw the Professor at the door, smiling gently at the pair. They were both really embarrassed since they were caught making out. Already
"How long were you there?" Kitty asked, nervously. Charles just chuckled.
"Not long, just got here, nothing to be embarrassed about you two" He said to them both calmly. They both let out of relive at that statement.
"I see that you both have recovered quickly than I thought, nice to see that you two have made... progress" He added as they stood in confusion.
"The others are all out side at the pool. When your ready you both can join in with the fun if you want." He told them. He turned around and wheeled himself to his office.
Peter returned his attention to Kitty who was looking at him. He was hoping that they would be alone, now that they were, he didn't want to mess this chance up.
"Kitty. There's something I have to confess. Ever since I first came here and meet you all, I thought that you were the most beautiful girl I've met. To top it all up I think your smart, funny. Every thing about you just makes me, smile. I really like you Kitty, but before we go any further I have to know. Do you like me?" Peter asked.
Kitty felt that this was a dream and she hadn't woken up. She literary pinched her self and was joyed that this was real. She smiled deeply at the man in front of her, the one that she has liked for a long time.
" Peter. I really like you the same way as you like me. I have been rather depressed lately before you came. When you did, you just made me happy again. I don't know how I ended up with Lance but I am really glad I have found a better person. You" She answered, with the truth in every word she spoke. Peter smiled back, deeply at the girl that he has liked a long time.
"There's another thing I want to ask. With all of my fears removed about us, I can ask you this one question. Will you be my girlfriend?" Peter asked. Worried encase of rejection, despite them confessing their feelings for each over.
Kitty was overjoyed when he asked and placed her lips on his, for another make out session. They fell back on top of the bed with Kitty on top of Peter yet again. Their tongues started to wrestle for domination as they filled their kiss with more passion and... love. Kitty started to trace over his bear top, over the strong muscles that he had gotten from two years of hero job .
Peter couldn't believe his luck. Recently he had been forced to come here for his job to investigate strange activities. Instead he found himself new friends, a new life and a new person to care for.
Kitty really couldn't believe her luck. Weeks ago she had been depressed from her relationship problem's with Lance. Until Peter came into her life and everything had changed, he was the only one who managed to cheer her up , the one who managed to get her into her usual bubbly personality. She found out that she had developed a crush on him and was happy when she found out that he had one on her as well. She wouldn't have guessed that they would be more than friends. It was recent that they happily became a couple.
They both pulled away to catch their breaths and were both really red. Kitty and Peter both kept their eyes closed and leaned on each over's forehead's.
"Is that a yes them?" Peter asked jokingly.
"You didn't even have to ask" She just whispered. A few minutes passed as they caught their breaths. They still had their eyes shut when Peter spoke.
" When should we let the others know about us then?" He asked.
"You don't need to guys, as we have seen plenty" A new voice came. They both shot their eyes open and turned to see the gang (minus Charles and Logan) standing at the door with grins on their faces.
"About time one of you two made a move" Scott said to them both.
"Yea, any longer and we would have stuffed you in a room alone" Jean added. Peter noticed that Scott and Jean had their arms linked together. He smirked as he figured they asked each over out. At last
"Well, your the one to talk Scott. How long did it take you and Jean to finally admit your feelings for each over huh?" Peter asked. This earned laughter from them all. Except Jean and Scott who were blushing really mad.
"Well, congratulation you two, we now have three couples to tease" Evan said. Rogue giggled a bit along with Evan.
"Just make sure you two don't make out 24/7 or we'll be vomiting from the sight of the two of you" Rouge said. Peter and Kitty both sent a death glare at her which caused her to back away.
"You two are really creepy when you do that together, you know that?" Evan pointed out. They both just smirked at him as they got up. Though he shot his own, darker smirk, sending cold shivers down their spins.
"Well, we should do that more often then if you two get on our nerves. Shall we head to the pool then Kitty?" Peter asked. Kitty happily nodded and took her boyfriend's hand and they both wandered past the others.
Peter and Kitty both went off to His room as Peter could just grab his trunks while Kitty phases next door and grabs her costume.
"You know, that saves a lot of time and energy just 'walking' through the walls by the way" Peter pointed out, with a slight smile. She gave him a look, but gave him a quick peak on the check.
"Well, not exactly, since I have to like concentrate when I adjust my density" She told him. She gave him a quick wink before phasing to her room. Peter just smiled at where she just phased, he then got into his swimming costume, next to his other costume.
Peter was thinking about what has happened recently.
'I've been sent here by the bugle, I have a boring patrol, I head to High, I meet the guys here, befriend them, make an enemy at lunch, learn about their gifts since they know of mine, I meet the professor. He offers me to stay and I accept, I find out about my crush on Kitty, I make another enemy. To top it up, I later fight the brotherhood and have a kind of near-death experience that gives me new powers. I recover shortly after that fight. Kitty or so has a near death experience but thanks to the others she recovers. After she recovers, we kiss and confess our true feelings and become a couple. Could my life be anymore complete?' Peter thought to himself.
Peter got out his towel for when he gets out to dry off. This towel was one of those with the Spiderman theme on it. Ironic considering that he is Spider-man. He got this when they were on sale, his aunt was troubled for some reason but let him have it since it'll remind him of his job, or rather his old job.
Kitty got to her room and grabbed her favorite Swim suit. This one was rather dark blue and contained a kitty on the front of also happened to have a spider-man themed towel. Before she knew Peter, she was like one of those fan girl's who had a crush on him. She started to get over it, over time when she was with Lance. She was thankful that she had broken up with him a long time ago and has now gotten a man that she really likes, and one who actually likes her.
They both simultaneously finished getting their pool stuff and both walked out at the same time. Peter could help but notice the similarity between the towels. Which he found a little embarrassing but hid his expression.
Peter grabbed Kitty's hand and they both walked towards the pool, on the way she asked a good question.
"Does this mean that we get to date in real life then?" She asked him. Peter was taken back a bit, before answering. He stopped by the wall when he did.
"I want to, do you?" He asked back. Kitty smiled at him.
"Yes I do" She replied. Peter couldn't help himself as he smiled brightly, slightly more than he had for the first time in what seemed like years. His dating life had more ups and downs then he could count. So not only would he be dating mutant like Kitty, who like others were in secret with their added talents, as Spider-Man. He would be able to date her as Peter Parker. Meaning he won't have to make choices about when ever or not he should give up his, 'distracting' side, so he'd be fully with who ever he was with.
"What was the point of asking when you two are already a couple? Bubs " Came a new voice. They both turned and saw Logan standing there with stoic expression on his face.
"Hey Mr Logan, I just wanted to make sure that we are like those couples who actually go out on dates." She explained.
"Well, I get it. Parker a word" He turned his attention to Peter who just walked over to him. Logan grabbed his wrist and pulled him over the corner. He pulled out his three claws near Peters face. Snikt!
"Now listen Bub. Kitty's not been the same recently, and if you hurt her I'll gut you. Understand!?" Logan threatened. Peter quickly nodded and Logan retracted his claws and walked away before Peter could say anything.
Peter walked back to Kitty, who gave him a concerned look.
"What did he say?" She asked.
"He said not to hurt you or he'll gut me. I promise you I won't" He replied. Deep down he was feeling guilt, since that's what he said to Gwen. And look how that turned out.
"I know you won't, besides I can take care of my self" She reminded him. Peter partly believed her, but still wasn't sure, considering what had happened to her last night. Then again, nobody knew what Lance had in store for them. Thinking about it, she made a good point. Her ability of phasing, speaks for it self. Bu Kitty's been trained by the Wolverine in terms of hand-to hand combat and how to reline more on her physical abilities more than her X-gene abilities.
"So shall we get to the pool then" He asked, changing the subject, he offered her a small smile. She returned the smile and took his hand. They both went off to the pool and saw that Jean and Scott were resting on the beach seats next to each over.
"Hey want to make an entrance?" Peter asked with a smirk. Kitty smirked back. She placed her arms, carefully around his waist as he crawled up to the top of the roof, like yesterday.
"Ready?" He asked as they stood back. She nodded and in three, two, one they set off and both leaped off, diving towards the deepest part, of course since Peter learned the hard way to alert jean, he decided to.
"Hey lover birds, might want to step back a bit!" He warned the couple below, whom woke up and jumped a bit. Kitty smirked slight as they neared the pool. Peter and Kitty landed in the pool with a massive splash that caused some of the water to hit the door, which was like 5-6 meters away. However Jean and Scott got soaked from head to toe strangely, and they were mad.
"On no" Peter said quietly. Kitty caught it and quickly swam out of the way as Jean and Scott bombed in. Peter quickly dived in to avoid the water that was being thrown on them, he shot a bit of webbing out, making a air bag which he covered Kitty's mouth with. He took her under, using the web bag to breath in. Scott and Jean kept on bringing the water on them, despite them being under. Peter found out just then that he forgot to make an air bag, but oddly he felt like he had plenty of air left.
'I'll have to look into that later with the professor' He thought to him self. He started to grab water at the top with webbing, making them into water bombs and started to throw them back at Jean and Scott. They were all surprised when they counted the time he was under without an web air bag. They later stopped chucking water at each over and got out to dry off. Peter was thinking about the fact that he just went under water much longer than usual. He couldn't really think about since he was currently drying off. He found himself staring with interest at Kitty, who was still drying off.
Kitty was drying off when she caught a glimpse of Peter staring at her, even though he is her boyfriend, it felt rather weird. But she went along with it and decided to tease him a bit, just to mess with him.
"See something you like Peter?" She asked seductively, swinging her hips side to side slightly. Peter was stunned when he realized he had been caught red handed by his new girlfriend, and the little show she was giving. He tried to make amends for himself, but couldn't quite get the words out. There had only been so may times when he had been caught red handed like that, but it was a long time ago when the last one happened so he sort of got rusty with the escape part.
"I umm... umm..." He stuttered. Kitty smirked at this and placed her lips on top of his for a brief second. She pulled back, still smirking.
"You know, your like kind of cute when you stutter." She whispered to him in the ear. Feeling her hot breath next to ear coursed him to shiver slightly. He heard a fake vomiting sound as they turned back around. They saw Rogue clutching her stomach as she pretended to be sick. Peter sent her a death glare while Kitty rolled her eye's. Kitty took Peters hand, her fingers interfiling with his and went back inside the institute.
" How does Kurt and Amanda put up with this exactly?" Peter asked as they both navigated down the corridors.
"They don't, which is why they all ways go out on dates, to get away from Rouge and Evan" She explained.
"Well, if it works for them two, then it should work for us right?" Peter asked while wiggling his eyebrows. Kitty gave him a look as he did before smiling.
"I suppose so" She told him. Peter returned the smile. Peter noticed that Kitty was dragging him to somewhere that Peter wasn't shown during his little tour .
"What is this area Kitty?" He asked as Kitty started to move some bricks out of the way.
"Just a little surprise for you" She whispered to him. She still had that smile on her face as she dragged Peter through the wall. Peter felt a familiar tingling as they did, similar to his spider-sense but weaker.
When he got through the wall he was amazed at what he saw. Here was like a little cave in the institute, it had a little waterfall along with a small lake.
"What is the place Kitty?" Peter asked a second time as he looked around the place.
"Let's just say its a place I go to when I'm depressed, sad or lonely. Which was often before you came along" She explained with a small smile.
Peter sat down by the edge of the lake, and sat his feet in the cool water. " So what am I then, your savoir?" He asked jokingly. Kitty's smile grew bigger as she sat behind him. She pressed her breasts into his back, wrapping her arms round his neck.
"Well like, I guess you could say that your my hero" She whispered by his ear, purring slightly. Peter was blushing a red tin full of paints worth, from his girlfriends sudden movements. Kitty then did something he didn't see coming. She pushed him in playfully in the lake. Peter imminently shot up to the surface of the lake, to see his girlfriend laughing. A little too hard as she clutched her ides while doing so
"Very funny Kitty" He said sarcastically.
"Sorry, totally couldn't resist. You don't have your web shooters to get me down now" She said teasingly, while laughing. Peter smirked at the situation, Kitty hadn't noticed his new organic webbing that he had gained.
"Wouldn't be laughing too soon if I were you, since I don't need my web shooters now" He warned her. Before Kitty could say anything, a sticky substance impacted on her chest and pulled her in the lake. She looked surprised to see that Peter had sprung a web on his own and pulled her in with ease. Though the said spider could have pulled her in with ease before his enhancements.
"How did you..." She started.
"Lets just say I gained organic webbing during the fight along with other abilities. Like these sharp things." He explained. He concentrated on his fingers and they got sharp, not as sharp as Logan's claws but still sharp. He then demonstrated his new Spider-legs as they carefully wrapped round Kitty's firm waist. Kitty felt amazed and curious at the same time about these new powers he had unlocked.
"Before you ask, during the time I was under the rumble, a voice in my head called The Spider unlocked my X-gene and gave me my full mutant abilities." He cut her off. Kitty was delicately surprised by this, and all this time she had thought that it came from that one spider bite.
"And all this time I thought it was through the bug bite" Kitty said. Peter smiled at her, she then placed her lips on his and they started to make out. Peter used his arms to support her legs as she wrapped them round his waist. Peter's tongue started to lick around the bottom of Kitty's lips and he started to point in the front entrance, Kitty opened the front door and Peter started to suck her tongue.
Kitty moaned as he sucked her tongue. Kitty started to trace her fingers over his muscular torso. She noticed that there was one piece of skin that was rougher than the rest, she looked to see that it looked like a scar. Peter started to lay kisses down Kitty's neck, catching her off guard. As much as she was enjoying this, her curiosity took over.
"Peter, how did you like get that scar on your chest?" She asked, having a hard time doing so. Peter completely froze when she asked. Kitty felt like she hit a sensitive nerve when she did.
" I got it. When I made my biggest mistake in my life , one that haunts me every day and night." Peter started, he looked down before taking a deep breath and continuing. He usually didn't talk about it to anyone, not even to Felicia or Mary Jane. But he felt like it was nice to tell Kitty about it though.
"You see, before I started my career, my Aunt and Uncle had money problems, they could hardly afford the bills. When I gained my powers, I thought I could help them with the money. I decided to start wrestling to help." Peter paused as the story didn't stop there. Peter looked up slightly to see Kitty giving him a supportive look in her eyes.
" I was the best at it, there was nobody who could even match me in the matches I completed in, I started to earn tonnes of cash, enough to move to Florida and buy a sports car. However I wanted to earn enough for my Aunt and Uncle. I or so didn't want them to find out what I was doing. So I hid the cash in a trunk at the bottom of my bed. However my uncle found it one day and thought I was on drugs. We had a massive fall out which resulted with me storming out of the house and back to the arena." Peter paused again as they hardest part was near, he could feel tears coming up as he remember the emotions that ran through his head on that day.
"I easily won the last fight and was one step away from making my dreams come true. However the manager refused to pay as he thought I was cheating because of my 'in-human' abilities. I was furious with him and turned to leave. On the way to the lift a common thief stopped by to steal from the manger, which he did. He ran down the corridor where I was, the manger asked me to stop him. But I didn't since I was furious with him and I let the thief pass. On my way home I found a body near the house. The body had been shot through the abdomen and lost more than a gallon of blood. The body belonged to my Uncle. Turns out he followed me to try to apologies to me." He was still looking down when Kitty asked him.
"What happened to him" She asked him softly.
"I tracked the murderer down to an abandoned warehouse shortly after, I gave him the beating of his life, I shattered every bone, every muscle he had. He managed to swipe me once, only to get me enraged further. I started to tear him apart. I had him cornered and when the light came in. I felt like I had been shot. It was the same guy who robbed the manger. The guy I could have stopped, Uncle Ben would have been alive today." He finished, His eyes were red and he had tears all over. Kitty imminently held out her arms and Peter went into them.
Kitty was crying as well from hearing Peter's greatest lost, she couldn't say she knew how he felt, since her parents kicked her out and made her homeless when they found out she was a mutant. She started rubbing Peter's back softly, in a comfort way. Peter placed his head on her shoulder as the tears started to slow down. He breathed in, taking in her sent.
He pulled back slightly to look at her in the eye, he tugged on a smile as he spoke. It wasn't a happy smile, more of a reassuring type of smile, one that contained pain and guilt in some way.
"I will never forgive myself or the murderer. My uncles death taught me a valuable lesson. With great power comes great responsibility. I vowed to never stop fighting crime and to use my gifts to ensure peoples safety and that they don't experience what I had. I made sure that the cut I received stayed there to remind me of my greatest mistake." He added. Kitty was standing there shocked at what she heard. It took a great amount of courage to talk about something like that, especially Peter who had endured the worst pain. A few minutes passed by as they both stood in their embrace.
Peter grabbed Kitty's arm and led them to the wall they got into. Kitty understood what he meant and phased them through, while about halfway she poked her head out to see if they were clear. Nobody was coming so Kitty dragged Peter out.
"Oh, there you two are" They heard from behind. They turned to see Scott in his X-men uniform.
"We've got a danger room session in five. Kitty its optional for you, if you feel like you can." Scott informed them and left to the elevator, with Jean already in it.
"You sure you can do a session Kitty?, Scott did just say it's optional" Peter asked as they walked up the stairs, holding each overs hand's .
"Yea I'm like pretty sure I can, besides we can do our little trick like last time right?" Kitty said to him. Peter was about to say otherwise but when he saw that she was giving him kitty eyes, he couldn't get the strength to argue.
"Okay then, I'll wrap some on the web around your waist so you don't have to hold onto it" He informed her, she nodded and they made it to Peter's room.
"You going to wear you X-men uniform or your Spider-man costume then Peter?" Kitty asked as they entered the room. Peter didn't exactly answer as he pulled out the only one that was available since the other one was torn from last night. He had to adjust it so he could use his spider-legs and claws without difficulty.
Once Peter and Kitty had gotten changed, they made their way over to the Danger Room. They were the second to last pair to get their. The last were Kurt and Evan, who turned up a few minutes later with sweat on their faces.
"Lesson number 1 on girls, never get them in a mood!" Kurt advised Peter, who was looking at him weirdly.
"To cut it short, never ditch her on a date to fight the brotherhood, or when to see a friend at a game." Kurt added.
"Well now that your all here bub's, let's get to work" Logan said to them from the observation deck.
"Web-head I'm counting on you to keep half pint here safe, watch her 24/7 during this simulation, or else!" Logan warned Peter who gulped. Kitty rolled her eye's as she could take care off her self, she was rather grateful that Peter wasn't as over protective as Logan was. Although he was like a father to her.
The simulation began and they all found them against 6 giant robots ( similar to the sentinels except their colours are blue and yellow). They all each waited for the group to make a move.
"Okay, we each pair up to take down 2 of those bots each. The pairs will be Kurt and Rouge, Me and Jean, Peter and Kitty. Evan can provide cover fire on the move for each one of us!" Scott ordered. Before they leapt into action, Peter created a web-shield for Evan. A round one similar to the First Avengers.
"Might want to hold on to this while your riding, so you don't get shot, again" He said to Evan. He nodded and took the shield, Peter added handles to it so it would be easier for Evan to get a grip on it.
-With Peter & Kitty-
They both shot off towards the two machines and Peter started to shoot web balls at them. each one automatically expanding at their hit points. The bots started to open fire at the pair, missiles followed the laser blasts as Peter and Kitty got knocked off their feet's. Peter quickly made a web bed to soften Kitty's impact, while he used his Spider-Legs to grab onto the wall. Using his legs to his advantage, he web grabbed the next rocked and sent it flying to one of the bots torso, it created a massive dent in the armour as it took a couple of steps back.
"Kitty, hitch a ride!" He yelled over to Kitty, who just got up. He shoot out a web line towards her, stopping by a couple of inches away. She grabbed onto it and Peter retracted some of the line so she wouldn't have to run.
"Just wrap it round you, It'll make it easier for the both of us." he ordered. She did so, carefully without hurting her arms. She had to admit this was a much easier way than holding the rope. Peter did the same thing so it gave him another free arm to either swing or shoot.
His spider sense went off and he managed to doge the incoming blasts from one of the bots. Peter ran along side the wall, avoiding the passing missiles and rockets. He shot out a couple of webs at some of the exposed weapons. They overheated and exploded, making several systems to go critical. Peter used this chance to swing Kitty through it's chest. Once she passed through it's short circuiting chest, The whole thing started to explode. It caused a small explosion that knock both Peter and Kitty in the air. Peter caught him self with on of his legs. The smoke cleared and the Bot fell down, defeated. Kitty hanged safely thanks to the web round her.
'One down, one to go' Peter thought to himself. He dropped down to the ground and began running to the other bot.
"Kitty stay behind me, I'll handle this one, when I give the word, phase through it's head" he told her. Kitty nodded and took off the webbing around her. Peter jumped up onto the leg when it tried to stomp on him, he began running up it and managed to web up some of the projectiles that were either headed towards him or Kitty. During the run he readied his new claws and started slashing against torso. He managed to cut some wires that started to make the bot to go haywire. The bot started to fall down and Peter did a backflip of it and landed on the ground. Once the bot impacted the ground, Peter gave the word.
"Now!" he shouted. Kitty began running towards the, struggling to get up bot and phased through the head, disrupting some of the electronics there. Once she got out it started to flash on and off again until finally off. Peter dashed over to Kitty, with sweat coming down through his mask. Peter had to remove it so the mask didn't smell later.
"Well, that was interesting " he said. Kitty nodded and gave him a quick peak on the check.
"Hey, no making out you two!" Logan's voice bellowed from the deck above. Kitty and Peter blushed slightly before heading near the entrance.
-With Scott and jean-
Scott found him self stuck. When ever he made a run for it, one of the bots would start blasting him. He used his optic blasts to remove the rocket threat but had to move back when the lasers came. Jean found it difficult to hold her own as well.
"Jean got any ideas on what to do here?" He asked as he shot another rocket.
"Not really, just stand here and shoot until we hit a blind spot" She suggested.
"I've got a better idea. You reflect some of the missiles and rockets and then I'll blast them when they are stunned" Scott said. Jean nodded and when the next volley of rockets came. Jean concentrated her powers and reflected them at the bots. They took the full blow and got massive dents all around. Scott set his visor to nearly all the way up and delivered a powerful optic blast to each one of their heads. They both fell down shortly after their heads did and exploded.
"Nice job you two, now head back to the entrance, and do NOT make out!" Logan bellowed over the intercom.
Scott and Jean nodded at each over and made their way over to where Peter and Kitty already were.
-Kurt, Rogue and Evan-
Evan noticed that Jean, Scott and Kitty and Peter had finished on theirs and decided to help Kurt and Rouge. Kurt and Rogue were having a lot of trouble with theirs. Rogue the most since her power only works on organic beings. Kurt could really just teleport around, his kicks didn't do much to stun it. The only weapon that Rouge had was her gadgets, but she was equipped with stun grenades and net bombs, not really useful when facing bots like these. Just then, a load of bone spikes impacted on their left arms, only to brake by the armour on the two.
"Need a hand?" Evan joked as he skated in. Kurt and Rouge rolled their eyes as they rolled them self's away. Evan started to send bone spears at the weapons, managing to penetrate a few of them and caused them to overheat and retract.
"Rouge, use you nets to jam the weapons on it!" Evan ordered. Rouge nodded and used her aim to get a few hits. She found she only had two left. Kurt suddenly had an idea, when the next and final rocket came, he teleported onto it and held onto it as he teleported both him and the rocket behind the bots head. He teleported himself off as the rocket collided with the back of the bot's head. A massive hole was exposed as the robot started to fall down.
"Nice one Kurt, now to focus on the last death machine!" Evan yelled as he used Peter's shield to block some of the lasers. His shield was surprisingly strong as it only lost a few strings of webbing when the lasers hit it.
"Okay, Rouge use your stun grenades and aim for the optics. Kurt give her a lift." Evan ordered. Kurt teleported over to Rouge, who was readying her grenades. She gave him a thumbs up and Kurt teleported her by the shoulders. She took the pins out and threw them at the target. They both exploded on contact and the bot started to go haywire.
"Kurt you might want to get us down, like now!" Rouge said. Kurt nodded and teleported them both down. The bot started to go nuts and it even smacked it self in the face. Big mistake as it doesn't seem to know it's own strength as it knocked it's own head off. The three of them laughed a little at that before joining the others back at the entrance.
"How's your arm Kitty?" Peter asked his girlfriend as they exited the danger room.
"Well, it's been better but I'll live" She answered as she rubbed her elbow. She offered him a warm smile to prove that she was okay. Peter returned the smile as he took Kitty's hand in his. They were told that dinner was ready after the session.
"I'll go to get changed. meet you there Kitty?" he said. Kitty nodded and gave him a quick peak on the lips before walking off. With Peter rushing up the stars
Kitty walked into the dinning hall to see that they were all smirking at her.
"What?" she asked shyly.
"Where's your boyfriend sugar?" Rogue asked.
"He's gone to get changed, he said he'll be here" Kitty answered. They were all about to ask questions when a string of web impacted on the roof in a straight line. They all turned to see Peter crawling down the ceiling. They were all in a silence as he did.
"That's one way to shut you all up" He whispered to himself. He smiled at Kitty as he took the seat next to her. She smiled back as she passed over the cabbage. He looked at the others to find that they were staring at the web he shot out.
"Don't worry about the webbing it's dissolve in an hour. Just wanted to make sure no one bothers Kitty" He said to them. Logan let out a small grunt as he figured that Peter would listen to reason. Kitty blushed slightly which caused the others to snicker. Scott was the loudest and most noticeable.
"I don't see why your laughing Scott, you and Jean must have been making out in your room 24/7" Peter pointed out.
"We so do not make-out 24/7" Jean countered.
"I can tell by the way your lips are swollen and the way that your looking at each over" Peter added with a smirk. They all laughed as Jean and Scott blushed in embarrassment. Charles, who was at the other end of the table chuckled slightly.
"Well it would seem that things are going smoothly since last nights incident. A new couple to add to the teasing list" Logan spoke. Peter and Kitty sent him a glare, which made him shut up surprisingly. Logan sent a glare at the others, who were close to laughter.
"Wouldn't recommend it Logan" Peter said to him.
"Alright enough about that. Web head, meet me at the Danger Room after Dinner sharply". He told Peter. Peter had a feeling what he was on about and knew that he had a fighting chance against him if it happened.
-Later in the danger room-.
Peter was walking into the room in his full Spider-man costume. Kitty was out with the girls for a 'girls' night out. So it left Peter to worry about what Logan was up to. He found the room to be dark as his night vision kicked in. Everything went blue as he could see the room in perfect detail. He was able to see Logan there with both his claws out. Logan had his own enhanced vision and was aware of Peter's new powers. he didn't say a word, instead charged at him with his claws in front of him. Peter jumped out of the way and launched his feet into Logan's back, sending him flying in to the wall. Logan then charged at Peter again, only to get kicked in the face, and to be impaled at the legs and thrown harder at the wall. Peter was fully aware of Logan's extremely fast healing factor. And because of that he didn't have to hold back. He saw that Logan was struggling a bit as his leg healed lightning fast.
Peter grabbed him from a distance with his organic webbing and started to smash Logan into the ground. ( Like Hulk did with Loki in the avengers). He could see that Logan had a small nose bleed that recovered before the blood went down fully. He dropped Logan on the ground as he got slightly board with all the smashing, besides that's some one else's job.
Logan got up, clearly impressed by Peter's new powers. " Not bad, but it'll take more than that to protect Kitty, no wonder you couldn't protect Gwen" He taunted. This caused something in Peter to snap as he charged at Logan angrily, this surprised him a lot, he only intended to get Peter off guard, but this he didn't expect.
Peter felt fuelled with rage as flashes of that day came crossing across his mind. Gwen's fall, the emotions he felt, the blood that was spilt on his hand. Everything. The rage he's currently experiencing is nothing compared to when he saw Kitty being attack by Lance, but it was still enough to surprise The Wolverine .He struck his knee into Logan's gut hard enough to make him cough out blood, to top it up he sent a mighty uppercut to Logan's jaw, surprisingly cracking it slightly despite it being made of a super dense metal. Logan was thrown back but could never get the chance to say anything as Peter impaled Logan in the chest and legs and started to punch him in the face. The legs missed Logan's bones by mere inches but it still made Logan grunt out in pain.
Peter managed to calm down easier than expected and dropped Logan down on the floor. While he was getting up and healing Peter let out a warning.
"I think we both know that I'm more than capable of protecting Kitty. Do your self a favour and don't go back to any of my previous loved one deaths or else!" he threatened coldly. Logan was left speech less. All he wanted to do was see if Peter was enough to protect Kitty and he got more than he asked for. Peter turned his back to Logan and made his way over to the elevator. Logan was worried slightly about Peters actions lately, he was told by Fury that he isn't the type to beat people to near death, even when he is reminded of painful memory's. He was told that he doesn't get aggressive quickly when stuff like that happens to him, not that Logan blames him for it. Fury or so added that Peter would make stupid wisecracks in a fight to hide his pain, but now he is now revealing it as he fights. Of course Fury revealed to Logan that he knew that Peter moved to Bayville and it was his job to keep an eye on him, in case he had to use his back-up plan, sadly that was classified information.
'I think I have to see Chuck later' Logan thought to him self as he walked to the elevator.
-With the girls at the mall-
Kitty was currently going through the mall with Jean and Rouge for a girls night out. Very often they would ask questions about her and Peter and they were starting to get on her nerves. It's not like anyone asked about Jean and Scott. She wished that Peter was with her now but she knew that Logan wanted to see him, although want might be a overstatement since It's Logan she was talking about.
Kitty smiled slightly thinking about Peter, the way he kisses, the way he looks at her and the way he smiles at her is enough to make her blush randomly. She didn't realise that she was, until Jean started giggling.
Kitty just rolled her eyes as she shushed, but only got Rouge to start giggling as well.
"I say girl, you've got more for him than you did for Lance, I don't need to be a mind reader for that information." Rogue said to her. Kitty frowned at the mention of her Ex-boyfriend. The very same person who tried to kill both her and Peter without mercy, which failed completely by her new and better boyfriend. She felt like she was the luckiest girl at the moment for having a great guy like Peter who promises to defend her, she promises to defend him as well to keep them even with each over.
They carried on walking around when they bumped into the very last set of people that Kitty wanted to see. The brotherhood minus Lance. The girls tensed up as the brotherhood glared at them, mostly at Kitty.
"I don't suppose that your going to let us past are you" jean said, it wasn't much of a question more of a confirmation.
"Yea that's right, later you are all going to pay for what you did to us and Lance. Especially you and Peter!" Wanda pointed to Kitty who wasn't surprised but was still scared at this. A crowed was starting to gather round as the tension grew worse. Rouge acted quickly and took the girls to the exits and to the X-van.
"Might want to hold on girls!" She shouted as she pushed her feet into the peddle and shot off. They all could hear the brotherhoods taunts as their distance grew until they got out of hearing range.
" Thank god, what now?" Kitty asked worried that the brother hood might go after them in the night.
"Don't know, their not stupid enough to go after us tonight or now because of the circumstances." Jean stated. The rest of the journey was silent until they reached the institute. They all walked in to see a slightly limping Logan walk past. They were about to ask what happened to him but Logan cut them of.
"Don't ask. Just seeing if Peter was good enough and he is more than enough" He started. They were all surprised by this, they knew that Peter had gotten stronger, but enough to make Logan limp slightly was scary. Kitty wasn't sure if she should be amazed or afraid of this. Logan walked of to were ever he was going, leaving the girls stunned.
"Okay, let me get this straight. Peter beats the living shit out of Lance and now he manages to make Logan limp, single handily. " Rogue gotten straight. Still not believing it. Jean and Kitty nodded in agreement.
Peter was hanging upside down at the Living room, tinkering with his old web shooters, he often did this when he was board or stressed. He made some new improvements to it's design. It can now fire Taser webs thanks to the equipment in the lab, He added his spider-tracers into a cartridge on the bottom on the shooter and he added some prehensile technology into it. ( Like the Mk 42 Iron Man suit.). He was so busy tinkering with them that he didn't notice the girls come in.
"Doesn't that make you like sick of something Peter?" Kitty's voice asked. Peter looked in surprised that he lost his concentration, this made him fall onto the hard ground on his back.
"Ow" he moaned. Rouge and jean laughed slightly while Kitty looked at him concerned. Peter threw her a reassuring smile. Because he was just as paranoid as she was about heir own safeties
"I've been worse, like the time I got sent into 6, 50 story buildings. I got put into a coma for 6 and a half months, I had to say that the fight got out of hand and that people started getting crossed in the crossfire ." Peter told her while smiling slightly. Kitty gave him a bit of a look but smiled back.
Peter got up on his feet and gave her a kiss on the lips, she returned the kiss and wrapped her arms round his neck. Jean and Rogue decided to split before things got more disgusting. Peter wrapped his arms round Kitty's waist as their kiss grew with more passion. Eventually they pulled away for air and sat down by the fire.
"It doesn't make me sick when I'm hanging upside down, although it did at first you get used to it." Peter answered her early question. Kitty really didn't say anything to that as she snuggled up to Peter's chest, hearing his heart beat. Peter looked at the clock and it read 8:54.
'Times fly's when you are having the time of your life' Peter thought to himself. He noticed that Kitty had drifted off to sleep. Peter smiled down at her as she snored softly, he kissed the top of her forehead before picking her up bridle style. She started moving around to get comfortable around him in her sleep. Peter started carrying her to her room, along the way he got passed by giggles and smirks by the passing locals, in return he sent a glare at them that said 'One word and your dead'. They all carried on, minding there own business as Peter carried Kitty up the stairs.
He reached Kitty's room and gently kicked it open, since his hands were preoccupied with holding the sleeping Kitty. He took a moment to notice that Kitty had placed some Spider-man posters around the room, each with his own signature on it.
'Since when did I sign posters?' Peter thought as he placed Kitty under the covers on her bed. he noticed at the corner of his eye that her left eye was slightly open.
"You still awake?" he asked, knowing the answered. She sat up as she fully opened her eyes.
"Well yes. Guilty as charged" She said jokingly, which caused him to smile at her.
"Well if you need a lawyer, then give Daredevil a call and see what he can do" Peter added. Kitty had heard about Daredevil, that he and Peter teamed up once in a while, they seemed to get along fine as they worked fine.
Peter remembered something that he wanted to give her a while ago, and because of the modifications he added to it, it would be more of a proper gift. He knew it would be weird since they were only a couple today but he wanted to help her in combat and to make it less painful, especially when she stretches .
"Hey Kitty I have something for you" Peter started, he reached into his pocket and pulled out something wrapped up. Kitty was surprised at this and hastily took it. She opened it slowly and saw that it was a pair of web shooters with plenty of cartridges, Peter had coloured them in yellow and black ( like her costume colours in the ultimate's, when they first teamed up together and the only time I recall as a coupe) .
"I figured that I could help you in combat by giving you a pair of modified web shooters. These are my old ones, but because I have organic webbing, I don't need it anymore. I used the lab's equipment to make some modifications to the web shooter it self. I've added some Taser webs to it, devices I call Spider-tracers that allow you to track a stolen vehicle. The tracers are linked to my Spider sense and a little electronic compass I added. To top it up I added something that's called, prehensile technology. Its known as the ' call and response' system, that splits the web shooters into smaller pieces and come's to you at your command. " Peter explained.
Kitty was amazed that her boyfriend had done something for her already as a couple. Lance never got her anything, except flowers and they got boring over time.
"You didn't have to, I mean you know that I can take care of my self Peter, but thank you" She thanked him as she pulled him over for a thank you kiss. She wrapped her arms round him as he placed his hands on her check and kissed back.
" I didn't have to, I wanted to, since your arms hurt when stretching too much, it would be worse in a fight" Peter said. Kitty frowned slightly as she felt like he was being over protective. She didn't really blame him, because of what he's been through, but at least he actually showed his concern unlike Lance. A stray of thought accord to her as she thought about her own powers.
"Um Peter, not that I don't appreciate this or anything, but won't I like phase through this and disable this by accident?" Kitty asked. Peter wondered when she was going to ask this question, true she normally would, but Peter found a way around that obstacle.
"You won't, as they are made of a special alloy that is slightly thicker than lead, your weakness is objects of high density yes?, well this is made of a high density alloy so you wouldn't be able to put a finger in there and disable it. To add you won't get any types of poison like lead " Peter answered. Kitty was impressed by his intelligence and found it, ironic that she happened to be dating a geek like her.
"When did you get the posters?" Peter asked as he pointed to the posters stuck on the wall.
"Oh, lets just say there was a store near by that sold these when you first appeared, I almost imminently brought every one there was, since I thought you were cute then" Kitty answered with a small blush on her checks. Peter noticed that there was one that had his black suit on it.
"Even when I had that on me?" he asked sternly as it happened to be the same suit that tried to take over his entire life and turn him into a monster.
"Umm sort of, I thought that something was odd with you when you had that costume on it, why?" Kitty asked nervously.
"That costume, is not a costume, it is a symbiote. A being that tried to take over my life and make me become one with it. It greatly enhanced my powers, I felt good in every way. But it started to turn me into a monster, I had to get rid of it, it nearly cost me my life once I did" Peter answered with a cold shiver going down as he remembered. Kitty felt ashamed but knew that Peter wouldn't blame her, she torn down the poster and gave it to Peter, seeing what he should do with it.
As Peter looked at it, flashes of his greatest enemy, Venom started going around his head as he remembered his battles with the poison in his life. He savagely tore the poster and gently threw the poster in the bin. He slowly turned to Kitty and smiled at her gently, telling her it was okay and he was not going to burst. She smiled back gently as she walked over to him and caressed his cheek.
"You know, I was surprised to see that you worked for that lunatic Jameson at the daily bugle, who had made it his life to get followers against you" Kitty pointed out, changing the subject.
"Well, it does help the bills at home" Peter told her. Then a thought accord to Peter as he remembered his Aunt may. She was coming back tomorrow and he hadn't thought about what to do when she does.
Kitty read the expression on his face and became concerned again. " What's wrong" She asked.
"My Aunt. She's going to be at home tomorrow and I don't know what to do when she does. I mean I can't just drag her here, I'll be kidnaping her" Peter said to her, he was about to speck again but was silenced by Kitty's index finger on his lips.
"Hey like chill out, we can handle that in the morning, besides we've had a long day and we just recovered today, so try to get some sleep okay, for me?" Kitty begged as she gave him kitty eyes, which made Peter lose the will to argue.
"Fine okay, since I said that I will go out when my Aunt gets here" Peter said to her. Kitty beamed at him and gave him a kiss on the lips. Peter returned the kiss and wrapped his arms around her smooth waist. Kitty placed her hands on his shoulders as she deepened the kiss along with him. Kitty started pointing her tongue against his lips for a silent question. Peter gave her a silent answer by opening his mouth and moaned slightly as her tongue roomed around inside of his mouth. They were so deep in the kiss that they didn't hear the sound that Kurt makes when he teleports, of course Peter's sonar hairs picked up the smell as he did.
"Ops sorry guys, can you two hide me quickly from Amanda, she's chasing me?." Kurt asked innocently. Peter and Kitty both let out a sigh and decided to hide him, despite the circumstances.
"Where is she then Kurt?" Peter asked with clear annoyance.
"Well, lets just say she's down the hall out side this door" Kurt answered. Peter let out another sigh as he grabbed Kurt and took him to the top of the institute.
"Thanks, why didn't I think of that?" Kurt asked himself. Peter didn't answer his question and headed back down to Kitty's room. Where Amanda was questioning Kitty, rather loudly as Peter heard it from where he dropped Kurt off.
"Seriously Kitty!. Where is he, I'm going to kill him, for ditching me Twice on our last two dates!" Amanda bellowed. Kitty acted calm and was surprised by Amanda's tone at the same time.
"I don't know Amanda, try Rouge or someone?" Kitty suggested. Amanda ignored her as she saw Peter crawl in, she didn't recognize him and panicked.
"Who... is that?" She asked with a tint of fear. Kitty held in a giggle from her behavior at Peter.
"I am Super Villain, here to kill you and take over your...It's Peter Parker aka The truly Amazing Spider-man, who do you think I am?" Peter told her jokingly, which caused both of the girls to laugh. Peter was quite surprised, as no one actually laughs at his jokes, including Felicia, who has this thing for trying to seduce him.
"Wow, your the Spider-man?" Amanda asked energetically.
"Yes, why?" Peter asked simply.
"It's just that, I never noticed that you had those, things" Amanda said pointing to the extra legs and claws, that Peter had revealed by accident.
"Oh, right I gained them yesterday, or rather last night." Peter told her. Amanda was slightly shocked.
"Anyway, don't get any ideas since I'm, already taken." Peter said as he proudly made his way over to Kitty and took her hand in his. Kitty blushed and smiled at him as he did.
"Figured you'd be taken. Doesn't matter, since the Blue Elf is with me I'm afraid." Amanda said to him, with a joking attitude when she mentioned Kurt. Her face turned serious shortly though when she mentioned him.
"Where is he anyway?" She asked demandingly. Peter just simply shrugged his shoulders as he pointed up to the celling.
"On the top of the institute, might wanted to grab some sticky gloves if I were you" Peter answered her. Amanda realised that Peter was the reason Kurt was on the top of the institute pretty quickly.
"Why did you help him!?" Amanda asked harshly. Peter and Kitty smirked slightly as they shrugged their shoulders. Amanda did something Peter saw coming, she slapped him round the face, well nearly, Peter simply sidestepped out of the way with his eye's closed, before it impacted his cheek. Amanda looked amazed and stunned at the same time as she stumbled slightly.
"How did you?" She asked.
"Kind of saw that coming" Peter simply said. Amanda sent a glare at him before exiting the room.
"How long until he stops being a chicken and goes to her?" Peter asked Kitty who was facing him.
"Umm, about another day or so. Kurt totally, likes to take his time." Kitty answered him. Peter checked the time on the nearby, it was getting late, the others would have been asleep by now.
'Well except for Kurt since he's being hunted down by Amanda, does she even sleep over here?' Peter thought to himself. He shrugged of the thought and redirected his attention to Kitty, who was yawning slightly.
"So Kitty, night?" He asked shyly.
"Night" Kitty replied. They both sheared one last kiss before Peter went of to his own room.
Kitty climbed into bed, with many thoughts going through her head off recent events.
'I better not wake up in the morning to find myself back in the med bays and what I had just experienced was a dream.' Kitty thought as she closed her eyes.
A few minutes later she found her self getting warm, like when people ( or mutants in this case) have nightmares. She couldn't help but think that she's been there before.
She found her self again in a abandoned warehouse, she expected to find Lance like before but something was different, the atmosphere had gotten cold, like really cold. She looked over the corner to find a common thug, wimping in fear. She was confused by this, until she noticed a dark shadow approach the figure. She watched in horror as the dark shadow started to give the figure the beating of his life, he clearly showed no mercy, as she could hear the loud sounds of bones breaking. She heard a dark, angry voice speck that sounded familiar, but she couldn't make it out as she was terrified.
"YOU DID THIS!, YOU WERE THE ONE WHO MUDERED THAT GREAT AND LOVED MAN. AND YOU MURDERED HIM OVER A CAR!" The voice bellowed as he delivered more hard punches. The figure started to cough out more and more blood as he was being torn apart. Kitty would have done something but she couldn't do that since it was a dream, a nightmare. But she felt like that this was... familiar.
As the figure started to back away weakly, she was able to get a good look at the dark shadow and couldn't believe what she saw. It was Peter, in his spider-man costume with a vengeance.
'wait that means. This is when his uncle... oh no' Kitty realised. 'Peter' had gotten close to the figure, who was supposing his uncles killer, he grabbed him by the collar and smashed him through the window, while hanging onto him. Down below were the police, they had their weapons ready and had a spot light on them.
Kitty focused her attention to Peter, he literary ripped off the figures mask and from what Kitty could tell, Peter felt like he had been shot.
"no... It can't be you. NO It can't BE!" Peter yelled as he looked at the figure. The figure managed to get a lucky swipe at Peter, who held in his scream because of his emotions going crazy. Kitty started crying from what she was seeing here.
"It can't be. YOU WILL PAY FOR TAKING AWAY BEN PARKER'S LIFE!" Peter yelled again as he punched the figure down the window. As he fell, Peter webbed up his feet to stop the fall at the last minute.
"but he wouldn't approve. as he said, with great power, comes great responsibility" Peter said to him self in a very weak voice. Kitty couldn't help but fall onto her knees as she cried her heart out from all this.
"Kitty. Kitty!" A voice came, her vision was blurry as first, but she could make out a male shape near her. Her vision fully cleared to see Peter kneeing close by, holding her hand in his.
"Peter?" She asked as she sat. She let out a small squeal as he hugged her tightly.
"Thank god. You were making noises and crying for a while, that I'm surprised to see that no one else has noticed." Peter said. He started stroking her back softly.
"I... had a nightmare. About the night you uncle... died" She told him weakly. She could feel him tense up slightly at her words.
"Funny enough I just had a nightmare about the night your parent's... chucked you out" Peter told her. It was her turn to tense up from his words.
"How is it by co-incidence that we had a nightmare of our worst nights?" Kitty asked quietly.
"I don't know... but we can find out. Together." Peter reassured her.
"Come on, let's get you tucked in." Peter added. Kitty layed down on her back as Peter moved the covers on top of her. He gave her a quick kiss on her forehead and turned to leave When Kitty spoke.
"Wait!. Peter can you sleep with me tonight, I need you in this moments. Please?" Kitty asked. Peter turned to look at her in the eyes, which were red from her tears. Peter understood her needs in this circumstances. Her going through his memory is a lot to take in. He didn't give it a second thought as he was aware that he could be breaking many, many rules. But he didn't care.
"Sure thing" He said to her. Kitty beamed at him, she started to move over to make some room for him. Peter stripped down to his boxers and got into bed with Kitty. He wrapped an arm around her waist and she moved closer to him, so she could place her head on his chest.
"Good, night Kit-" Peter started but Kitty cut him off.
"It's Katherine. Tell another living soul, then your going to be a dead spider. Night" She said to him. Peter tugged on a smile, as he was pretty sure that no one else here, knows her real name. Not to mention her threat had amused him.
"Good night then...Katherine" he replied. He kiss her on the lips before drifting of to sleep.
Finished at last. Hope you all like that chapter. Please Read& Review this. How is it that Peter and kitty happen to have a nightmare about each over's worst memory ?. You will find out in future chapters. It felt like the right time for these two to get together.
For the future I will have Peter facing against some of his old 'friends'. Charles and Logan will see why Peter had all of a sudden gotten more aggressive and magneto will appear soon. But for the next chapter will be Peter's aunt coming back and you will see how she reacts.
Just to let you know that, I personally believe that, Adamantium is not indestructible, just a super dense metal.
