Chapter 10: Solace and Names

Another Spike In Views Means Another Early Chapter. You Guys Are Awesome, Enjoy.

Gwen still couldn't believe what she was seeing. All theses people in this one house were in some form or fashion different from regular people, but now so was she. Gwen looked at Ariel and tried to answer her question as best as she could.

"I really don't know what this is." She said. "All I know is that my dad is dead because of whatever this is."

"It might also have something to do with Roxxon as well." Aiden started. "You shouted his name before you passed out."

Gwen pondered this for a second before saying, "I don't remember that, but I do remember when I was in those webs, I heard my dad's voice telling me that what I have was the key to bringing him down. I just wish I knew what he meant."

"Well maybe it would be better if you just showed us what you can do miss Stacy." Daniel said to her.

She didn't know how to respond to this, but all eyes were on her. Gwen was getting nervous with everyone staring at her and they could all tell.

"Okay," Ariel said while taking Gwen's arm and taking her upstairs, "maybe you can do it without us staring holes in you."

Gwen didn't argue or resist at all. She followed Ariel up and into what Gwen could only think was Ariel's room.

Ariel left the room and said to her, "Don't wreck any of my stuff and take as much time as you need, okay?"

Gwen nodded and Ariel closed the door. Gwen sat on the bed and tried to do what she did to trigger her abilities before. So far all she could remember was that when she saw her dad laying on the ground like that, her powers just happened. Same with when the Spiders caught her. She sat there and tried to remember just how she was able to do it.

Downstairs

Ariel came down from her room so Gwen could focus in peace. She sat down on the arm of the couch next to her brother.

"So," Dominic asked her, "is she gonna be alright?"

Ariel looked at the stairs for a brief moment before answering. "Yeah, I think so."

"You know," Arlo started while looking at Aiden, "Naomi said you gave her a pretty cool spider name. Kinda wondering what will ours be."

Peter and Ariel both looked at Aiden and were confused on what Arlo was talking about. They didn't know that he had given Naomi a spider name at all. Ariel looked over to Naomi who was sitting on the top part of the chair in the kitchen.

"Let me get this straight," Ariel was talking to Naomi and she knew it, "my brother gave you a spider name earlier and you just told Arlo?"

"She told me too," Ray said while he was laying one the floor, "but I really didn't care to tell anybody."

"It's a good name." Naomi answered. "It just kind of sounds cool. I mean, Spider-Wolf, I like it. Don't you?"

Ariel looked straight at Aiden. "Spider-Wolf?"

"What? She reminds me of one. Vicious wise I mean." Aiden answered her.

"Then wouldn't that mean they all need names like that?" Alexa asked them.

"Then what exactly do you want all of us to go by?" Amy asked from the table.

The three original Spiders on the couch thought for a while on how to answer that question. Because Peter only had one clone and she was a girl, he quickly thought of a good name for her.

"Spider-Woman." He said while pointing to her.

"Why would any chick want to call herself that?" Ariel said.

"Sounds pretty good to me." Jessica said to her.

Ariel rolled her eyes to Jessica's comment and was still thinking of names for her other two clones. Since they were both male, she was having a hard time trying to figure out what to call them. She thought about the names longer than Aiden. He had already snapped his finger when he thought of three names for his clones.

"Jumper," he said while pointing at Dominic. "Weaver," he pointed to Amy. "And Widow," he pointed to Max who was holding a pan in her hand at the time. "What do you guys think? Fits who you all are right?"

"Well I do have really good jumping abilities, yeah I'm cool with that name." Dominic said that with a satisfied grin.

"Weaver huh?" Amy started. She put her hand on her chin and thought for a brief moment before answering. "Love it."

"Why Widow?" Max asked him. "I mean, Amy fits that more than I do."

"Cause you have a really intimidating suit," Aiden started, "you also have a venom blast, right?"

Max was genuinely surprised Aiden knew that. "How did you know that?"

"Well it was either you or Dominic," Aiden started, "and he is mainly just as smart as me. Amy has my height and build, so that obviously means you have the venom blast."

"Okay then," Max started, "I guess I can deal with that." She went back to helping Trisha.

"I think I finally have some names for you two." Ariel said to both Arlo and Ray. "Arlo, you're Spider-Dude, Ray you're Ghost. There, done deal."

Arlo and Ray looked at each other and nodded. They gave Ariel a thumbs up to her names.

Suddenly there was a bright flash that came from upstairs. Everyone looked at where the light was coming from and wondered what was going on. The light finally dimmed down and Gwen walked down the stairs in that yellow form of hers once again. This time though, she looked like she was in complete control. Everyone was in awe of who they were seeing, they couldn't believe that that was Gwen.

"Overheard the conversation down here," Gwen started while hovering down to the ground. "I guess since we're doing that, maybe you guys should call me," she thought for a quick second, "Solace."

Really Happy To Be Finished With This Chapter. Now That Everyone Has A Name, And They All Have Their Own Distinctive Abilities, Now It's Time To Start The Real Threat. Roxxon. He'll Be Hitting Trying To Hit The Spiders With A Lot Of Junk, And Yes, That Grey Monster Will Be In The Later Chapters.
