Chapter 10: Final Battle
Spider-Man runs up to Dr. Connors and helps him up. "I know you," said Spider-Man as he looks at Dr. Connor's face, "You are that head genecist from Oscorp. Dr. Connors, right?" "Yes I afraid so Peter." Said Connors as he weakily leans against the wall. "How do you know my name?" said Spider-Man confused. "Well… the spiders at Oscorp last year was our attempts to make a super soldier serum for the military since we are rivals to Stark, Trask, and Hammer Industries. The one that bit you was our successful trials," said Connors, "I knew it was you because Oscorp kept an eye on your superhuman abilities…. Which made me know It was you instantly." "Well that explains it," said Spider-Man, "But How… WHY… did you decide to become that Lizard thing?" "Well… years ago, during the Afghanistan war, I lost my arm to an explosion while rescuing a wounded soldier. When I returned home, I researched the healing capabilities reptiles had. Oscorp had the tools I needed to do my research, so I went to go work for them. For months, I worked on a serum that can heal any minor and major wound that can heal anyone missing an arm, limb, or even a heart! I tested it on myself and my arm grew back… It didn't end there. It made me into that Lizard creature." "Is there any way to cure you from the Lizard?" asked Spider-Man. "Yes… in my drawer, there is a blue syringe. That one has the cure." Spider-Man walks over to a work table and pulls it out. Then, his Spider-Sense tingled and he turn to see Connors holding his head. "I'm… changing…" said Connors painfully as the Lizard starts coming out. "DOC! NO!" yelled Spider-Man as he runs over. The Lizard roars and slams Spider-Man into a wall. "HUMANSSS WILL DIE!" said the Lizard as he tackled Spider-Man through some walls. Then, they both fall onto a subway track below and Spider-Man punches Lizard and hey fall through the track and into the water below. Spider-Man kicks himself off of Lizard and prepares to web the Lizard, but realizes his webbing doesn't work in water. "Next time…. I'm going to waterproof my webbing..." thought Spider-Man as Lizard punches him. Spider-Man tries his best to hold Lizard off with punches and kicks, but Lizard has an advantage in the water and beats up Spidey. Then Lizard holds Spider-Man in the water and keeps him still. "No one can ssstop me…. Not even you." Said izard as he holds Spider-Man's head. "I gotta do something now before I drown!" thought Spider-Man. Spider-Man grabs some muck from the floor and throws it on Lizard's eyes. Lizard backs away and tries to get the gunk off, but Spider-Man swims up and jabs the cure into his neck. Lizard screams in pain and slaps Spider-Man away. Then, Lizard holds his head and he slowly turns back into Connors. Spider-Man swims and grabs Connor's arm and swims to the surface and pulls them out of the water. "Connors… are you Okay?! CONNORS!" said Spider-Man as he kneels next to Connors. Connors eyes widen and coughs as he gets up. "I-Is it over?" said Connors looking at Spider-Man. "Yes Curt…. It is." Said Spider-Man. "I-I have to turn myself in for the damage I caused, Peter." Said Connors as he looks at Spider-Man. "Connors... It wasn't your fault. It was the Lizard." Said Spider-Man. "Peter… Let me handle it. It's the only Solution to the problem." Said Connors. "Alright… If you say so…." Said Spider-Man as him and Connors walk out of the sewers.
