answers to reviewers questions or statements:
rmarcano321: It depends I guess.
Silver Crow: Who says that Venom doesn't have his new powers from Knull already? Peter will be meeting Cindy and Anya next chapter.
Fire Dragon King: The reason it wasn't brought up is because Peter never said he killed them, just that he passed and they didn't. In fact, for all the others know, once Peter beat them, Cadmus disposed of them. Now that doesn't mean it wont be uncovered, it will with Batman looking to find out as much as he can on Peter. In his eyes, Peter's a young, extremely volatile super human whose mental state is questionable at best, he sure as hell isn't gonna let an unknow like that around his kid without finding out everything he can about them in case things go south. And once he does... yikes.
Badger10: At the moment, he looks like his traditional black suit look but without the white spider on it.
peanutbutter6996: What is?
WILLIAM11: She's more based off the PS4 May from Marvel's Spider-man.
CRUDEN: There will be times that Peter's lack of social skills will become evident. Interacting with an alien that's literally in your mind is one thing, but interacting with modern society? That's a whole other ball game.
PhantomWorks- Story division: Carnage will be appearing in this story, along with the likes of Riot, Scream, Toxin and the others.
PowerNinja: Hated the plot, the villain, the way they nerfed the violence and for some reason giving Venom toes for no real reason. But I did like the interactions between Eddie and Venom.
superpirece: He supplies them in a manner similar to Luthor though it's more to advance his political career than 'world domination' like Luthor is doing, for the moment.
GJAM: Yes he will meet Catwoman and of course she'll approve of him, cats love spiders when it comes to Peter. As for Helena's interest in him, appearance wise he has her attention, and his power set is rather unique, as is his origins. So for the time being her interest in him is purely curiosity with a hint of physical attraction.
Chaos Sorcerer: Well I can say Taskmaster will appear as one of Peter's Rogues, he seems to be gaining popularity lately. As for the girls that will be interested in him at the moment and are around his age, they will be Helena, Kara, Zatanna, Felicia, Anya, Cindy, and Ravager. The older women wont be taking any romantic interest until after he's of actual age during the five year gap between season one and two. Venom here is roughly on par with the power level his mainstream counterpart has. Barring the whole agents of the cosmos thing, the Symbiote history is the same in that Knull made them and used them to try and conquer the universe before they turned on him though afterwards they still proved to be a blight on the rest of the universe, like the Xenomorphs. No Venom's main weaknesses are Fire and sonics, though electricity can be a descent substitute. Venom and Peter combined are considered the second strongest members of the team, just railing behind Superboy. No he's enhancing them, it's why he's the second strongest member of the group in terms of raw physical strength. Peter will have moments where he'll go his own way or refrain from saying something that could be vital to knowing by the rest of the team, partly out of habit and partly because as time goes on, some of Peter's actions will make most of the team, even the likes of Helena, wary of him, Yes, Helena and Kara will become Huntress and Power Girl by the events of Invasion. Osbron's interest stems from the fact that it was Oscorp that supplied the tech that led to Peter gaining his spider powers, Cadmus, through the Light, had already acquired Venom. Ra's see's potential in Peter, not enough to be an heir, but enough to be a very valued member to the League of Shadows/Assassins. Some of the members of the Light are interested in Peter's bonding to Venom more than anything else and are eager to replicate it on a larger scale. It'll follow the show to a point, but not outright, I'll be replacing a few events with some of my own or adding on to the existing missions that the team went on. The Martians and Symbiotes encountered one another a few hundred to a few thousand years prior and it didn't end to well... for the Martians.
Fenrir44: There's gonna be more than enough DC women and women associated to the Spider-man mythos being in this, adding X-Men women will make it even harder to keep track of whose appearing. Yes, Felicia will show up and Mary Jane will appear during the events of Invasion.

July 12, New York City, Forest Hills Queens, 03:23 pm...
Peter was... well he wouldn't say nervous.
Anxious maybe, but not nervous. What'd he have to be nervous about? He was just sitting a black SUV that was outside the home to his last living relative May Parker with some agent from some agency called ARGUS, who was dressed in a gray business suit and had long blonde hair. She said her name was Barbara Morse or something like that, Peter wasn't paying attention at the time, he was busy arguing with Venom on why they couldn't just steal a package of chocolate they saw at a store they stopped at earlier.
"Nervous?" Bobbi said with a small grin as she noticed Peter keeping looking anxiously at the small home before he looked back at his hands and twiddled his thumbs.
"What me?" Peter said as he pointed to himself "No, I'm not nervous! I'm the complete and utter opposite of nervous. If anything, this lady should be nervous!"
"Riiiight" Bobbi said with an amused laugh as she unlocked the doors to the car and stepped out into the late afternoon air "Well come on kid, let's get this show on the road"
"Do we have to do it now though?" Peter asked as he hopped out of the vehicle and followed Bobbi up to the house "I mean, this seems like the kind of thing that you should be eased into"
"Are you worried she won't like you?" Bobbi asked as she turned back towards Peter with a worried look on her face.
"Well, what's there to like about me?" Peter asked as he adverted his gaze and stared at the small column of ants marching on the ground "I mean, I'm a sixteen year old super powered kid bonded with a symbiotic organism given to me by Cadmus to see if I'd bond with it or not. Not seeing anything worth liking there"
"Well, your not a delinquent, so you got that going for you" Bobbi said as she tapped her chin "And your smart too. I've reviewed your file, if two sheets of paper counts as a file now a days, you got a IQ over two hundred. That's... really, really impressive"
"If you say so" Peter said with a shrug as he looked around at the neighborhood to see a group of kids playing down the street and another neighbor across the street mowing their lawn.
"Look, we've observed your Aunt the past few days and we're ninety nine point nine percent sure she wont turn you away" Bobbi said as she patted Peter on the shoulder "She's got a good heart, something you badly need in your life"
"What makes you say that?" Peter asked with a frown.
"Kid, you were raised in a lab by an organization that ARGUS and the League are starting to discover has violated almost as many human rights as the Nazis did" Bobbi said with a sympathetic expression "And it shows"
"How?" Peter asked with confusion as he looked down at himself "I don't look like science experiment gone wrong"
'Says you' Venom whispered with a snicker.
"It's how you interact with people" Bobbi said as she folded her arms "You don't willingly initiate a conversation, your reclusive and I'm willing to bet you have a rather skewered morality code"
"I'll let you know that my moral code is... good" Peter said with a scoff.
Bobbi's eyes narrowed at this "If that's the case, then why did you kill all of the Superman clones before Superboy?"
Peter fought hard to keep his expression from turning to shock, which in hindsight wasn't very good "W-What makes you say I killed them?"
Bobbi gave Peter an unimpressed look "Well, since ARGUS employs guys who are a little better at hacking than Batman, we were able to recover just a tad bit more than the dark knight was when he hacked Cadmus before they could delete any relevant information pertaining to you and the various other projects that had going on"
Peter felt his heat beating a mile minute as he felt his body inching towards either fight or flight. Venom, from what Peter could sense, was already preparing a tendril to lash out at Bobbi while he simultaneously formed the suit to get away. Morse seemed to be aware of the sudden tension Peter was feeling and sighed as she loosened her stance and held her hands up.
"Look, if your worried we're gonna tell the League, don't. I saw the recordings, Cadmus's Superman clones weren't really giving you much of a choice and even then, how would you know better? Your 'caretakers' weren't exactly morally upright in the first place and were in no hurry to teach you what was right or wrong" Bobbi said.
'She or ARGUS want something from us' Venom hissed in Peter's ear 'It's the only reason why they aren't saying anything to the League... yet'
"What do you guys want from me?" Peter asked with a frown.
"Far as I'm aware? Nothing" Bobbi said with a shrug "Believe it or not kid, you aren't exactly high on our list of priorities and I hope it stays that way. I'd rather not have to roll up here with a few dozen guys because you got out of hand"
"I'll keep that in mind" Peter said with a relieved sigh.
Bobbi nodded before she turned towards the door and took a deep breath "Okay, let's get this over with"
"Wait" Peter said, grabbing Bobbi by the arm and stopping her "Does she know about... what Cadmus did to me?"
"She knows that after your parents were killed, a rogue organization of scientists took you and proceeded to manipulate your genes and expose you to a host of varying materials over the past few years that resulted in you obtaining abilities of a spider, or close to it" Bobbi revealed as she extracted her arm from Peter's grip, she already knew there was going to be a bruise with how hard he unintentionally gripped her.
"What about..." Peter gestured to the black long sleeve shirt he had on that shivered before settling.
"We're... gonna leave you to explain that one" Bobbi said with a sheepish grin "Sorry, but we can't do all the work"
Peter gave the blonde a blank look as she turned and rung the door bell and waited for May to answer. As they stood there, Peter's mind raced over the possible reactions that his Aunt will have when she see's Venom. She probably wont take him being bonded to a alien parasite with a craving for brains as well as hearing that the son of her brother in law and his wife had been experimented on in the hopes of making some kind of next generation super solider. After a few seconds, Peter picked up the footsteps of someone on the other side of the door and took a deep breath as the knob turned and the door opened.
"Mrs. Parker" Bobbi said as she held out her hand "I'm Special Agent Morse, ARGUS. We talked on the phone"
"Oh, hello Ms. Morse" May said as she took Bobbi's hand and shook it while Peter observed her.
She was younger than he thought she'd be, looking to be in her mid to late fifties with a full head of brown hair and only had a few wrinkles on her face. She had blue eyes that flickered to meet Peter's and widened as she took in his appearance. To her, it was like looking at her late brother in law again but he had Mary's eyes. Bobbi stepped aside as May slowly approached Peter and slowly reached out with a shaking hand.
Peter swallowed nervously at the older woman "H-Hey... I'm... I'm Peter"
"You... you look just like your father" May whispered in a quiet voice.
"Thanks..." Peter said with a shy smile. He could hardly remember what his parents looked like, or even what they sounded like to be honest "And you uh... you look uh, you?"
May chuckled as she brought Peter into a surprising hug.
'Aww, how sweet. I think we'll get cavities from all the sweetness in the air' Venom teased in the back of Peter's mind.
'Ah blow me you parasitic pile of sewage' Peter said as he returned the hug, being mindful not to squeeze to hard and break his Aunt May's back... literally.
After a few moments, May pulled away and wiped the tears from her eyes before she stepped back "Oh, where are my manners. Come in, come in, I just put a pot of tea on. Would either of you two like some?"
"What would be lovely Mrs. Parker" Bobbi said with a smile as she stepped into the home.
Just as Peter prepared to follow her through, his entire body suddenly tensed, causing him to stop and look over his shoulder with a frown on his face. May seemed to notice her nephew's stance and looked around worriedly for whatever it was that was causing him to act like this.
"Is everything okay Peter?"
Peter didn't respond as his eyes darted around the area, looking for... he didn't know what, but something was there, watching him. Venom seemed to be in agreement as he growled in the back of Peter's mind and prepared to react in an instant. After a few seconds, Peter released a breath as the tension he was feeling left him and glanced back at his aunt and gave her his best reassuring smile.
"Yeah I'm good. Just... just not used to seeing or being around so many people is all" Peter said as he rubbed the back of his head with a small grin "The most I've ever been around at one time was like ten and even then that freaked me out"
"Oh dear..." May said with worry before she put an arm around Peter and escorted him inside her home, soon to be their home "Well don't your worry sweetie, I'm not gonna throw you into a crowd of people if being around so many other people is unsettling"
"Bah, I'll get over it... eventually" Peter said with a grin towards the elderly woman "Gotta face your fears at some point right?"
"I agree" May said.
As Peter entered the house and the door closed behind him, both he and Venom missed the faint rippling of the air just a few meters away by the curb, next to agent Morse's car that was roughly in the shape of a person before it faded away again, as if it were never there in the first place.
...
Kara Zor-El was never much of a social person when she was growing up on Krypton.
She wasn't quite a shut in but she never went out unless invited, she found interacting with other people to be too troublesome at times and filled with too much unnecessary drama. But since Krypton's destruction which in turn caused the population of her race to drop to herself, her cousin and whatever criminals inhabited the Phantom Zone and her eventual landing on Earth and being confined to the Kent Farm in Smallville Kansas, the literal middle of nowhere in her opinion, she was craving for any kind of social interaction outside of the local populace.
She would get that every few weeks when her cousin Kal, or Clark as he liked to be called, would visit and from her best friends Helena and Zatanna. But since one was touring with her father on a 'magical tour' and the other was Robin, hanging out with the two was rather difficult for the blonde teen. Especially since every time she tried to leave Smallville, Kal would intercept her and drag her back for 'her own good' because the world 'wasn't ready for a Kryptonian teenager'.
"I swear, he's just making me stay here because he doesn't like another Kryptonian flying around that's not him and getting even more attention because of it. Ugh, even as an adult he has to have all the attention" Kara grumbled as she sat in her room, filled to the brim with various plushies that she immediately fell in love with after landing on Earth.
They didn't have anything quite like them on Krypton and for some reason she needed to have them.
The same could go for the kinds of clothes she was wearing, red spandex shorts and a blue sports bra that was a bit tight on her steadily growing chest while her hair was done up in a messy pony tail. She huffed out a sigh of annoyance as she rolled on to her stomach and rested her chin on her arms as she stared at the wall with a bored expression. Martha and Jonathan were out on a date, leaving her to watch after the house, not that it was very hard. She could hear everything going on inside and outside the house and view the entire property with her X-ray vision with a few turns of her head.
"UUGGGHHH! Why can't Helena or Zatanna be free tonight!?" Kara complained as she sat up and crossed her legs and folded her arms across her chest with a pout.
She's already did all her chores for the night, cleaned the dishes, cleaned her room, cleaned the attic, the basement, the barn, hell she even masturbated for a bit to help pass the time, something she's come to do more and more since arriving on Earth. Kara sighed again as she stood up from her bed and made her way to the door and down to the kitchen for something to snack on. She paused at the stairwell to pet her baby piglet, a pink little thing named Whiskers that Kara just loved and picked the snorting creature and carried him with her.
"Looks like it's gonna be one of those nights mister Whiskers" Kara said as she scratched the Pig's eats, causing it to snort and rub his head against her hand.
Helena and Zatanna often teased her for having such a random animal like a pig as a pet but she likes to think it's unique, like she is. Plus, how can she resist the cute little pout he gives her when he's hungry or wants to be picked up?
"OINK!" the Pig sounded, grabbing Kara's attention.
"What is it Whiskers?" Kara asked as she held her piglet up and smiled as he ruffled his snout at her "Are you hungry too?"
The Piglet seemed to snort in affirmative, causing Kara to giggle as she made her way into the kitchen and set the little pig down and approached the refrigerator. She carefully put her hand on the handle and slowly opened it up, she'd rather not break a fifth refrigerator if she could help it. Whiskers made a few grunting noises as he patted around the kitchen, sniffing at everything and squealing before he wandered over to Kara and laid against her feet as she scanned the contents of the fridge. She saw eggs, left over steak, pasta, bacon (something she was going to throw out because it could be Whiskers's sister for all she knew), a few cans of that beer that Pa liked, some orange juice and a variety of vegetables.
Kara reached in and grabbed some carrots and lettuce for her piglet to have and crushed them in her hands before she placed them down on the floor next to Whiskers who sniffed at it and began to scarf it down. Kara giggled as she rubbed Whiskers back before she looked back in the fridge and decided to settle on some pasta and a cup of orange juice. She was tempted to try that beer that her adoptive father liked so much, with her physiology it'd take a hundred of those things for her to start feeling anything but than she'd get the 'talk' and probably be grounded... again.
"I swear, this world is so ridiculous with it's rules" Kara said with a shake of her head as she stepped over Whiskers and made her way to the cabinet for a plate and cup for her dinner "You know Whiskers, I think this place gets invaded so much because the other races out there don't want this planet's stupid rules to spread"
Whiskers snorted as he munched down on the last of his food before he wrinkled his snout and wandered over to Kara as she placed her plate in the microwave and set the time before she reached down and picked him up and cradled him while the food cooked. The silence of the house was suddenly broken by the sound of Kara's phone going off upstairs. Sighing, the blonde quickly rushed up to her room in the span of a few seconds and placed her piglet on her bed and smiled and cooed as he walked in a circle before lying down on her pillow and burying himself in the soft material. With Whiskers down for the time being, Kara reached over and grabbed her phone of the nightstand and checked to see who was messaging her.
It was from Zatanna.
I'm soooooo bored now!
Kara grinned as she sat on the bed and scratched whiskers with one hand and typed a message with the other.
How so?
She waited a few seconds for a response when she heard the microwave down stairs go off, causing her to fly back down and retrieve her food and drink before flying back up and settling down on her bed amongst her plushies just as Zatanna responded.
Daddy's in a meeting with his agent, his manager and some of the crew on where to go next :'(
Kara's grin grew a little at this as she laid back in her bed and quickly typed her message.
So, your alone?
"Please say yes, please say yes" Kara whispered as she waited for the young mage's reply.
Her response was a selfie of Zatanna in a black bra, black panties and a pair of thigh high fishnets with her trademark hat lying lazily on her head with a sexy grin to match.
Maybe I am, maybe I'm not ^_^
Kara grinned as she took a quick picture of her own attire and sent it to her friend with a little fire emoji. Zatanna's response was a picture of her licking her lips followed by a picture of her cupping her breast.
Mmm, maybe I can talk my dad into having us stop by in Smallville? It's on the way to our next show and I can give you a little private show that I've been working on?
Oh my god yesssss! Kara typed with a grin at the image of her own little private magic show with Zatanna. Now all she needed to do was see if Helena was interested in joining them.
She wasn't as... adventurous, as Kara and Zatanna were in their weird relationship that was one part best friends, one part bubbling girlfriends and one part slap to human society on what's considered a proper relationship. But, she may not be opposed to watching her two best friends have a heavy make out session in front of her while both dressed as they are now with lots of groping and moaning. Just as she was about to send a message to Helena asking if she'd be down for it, she received a message from the girl wonder herself. Curious, Kara opened the message to see what her best friend had sent her.
Hey, can I ask a favor?
Kara's brow quirked in interest at this and sent a reply.
What is it?
Kara watched as the little window with three little dots appeared, signifying Helena typing a response, wondering what she needed. It was rare for Helena to ask Kara or Zatanna for any kid of favor, preferring to handle it on her own. After a few moments, Helena sent her reply and Kara read it with curiosity.
Okay, so I'm now on this team made of me, Wally, Kaldur and these three new guys. One's a clone of Superman, not quite sure how they got the DNA for that but whatever, a Martian girl that's Manhunter's niece and this guy with spider powers and this suit of his that seems to respond to mental commands. You have any advice on how to handle the clone guy? Your cousin isn't being very helpful and I was just wondering if clones were a thing on your planet back in the day.
'This isn't even close to what I thought she was going to ask' Kara thought with a sigh as she re-read the message and typed her reply.
Well I'm not quite sure if I'm the right person to go to, clones were kinda taboo on Krypton and weren't liked all that much. Like, we're talking second class citizens at best. But I guess you can bring him by later and I can talk with him. Give him a bit of insight on Kryptonian stuff.
Kara sent the message and waited while she also picked apart Helena's earlier message, she could already imagine what being on a team with Wally and Kaldur was like and if this Martian girl was anything like her uncle, she couldn't be all that bad though her interest was piqued by the 'guy with spider powers'. She made mental note to ask for pictures of the guy later, he could be a real cutie despite her unsettling his powers sounded.
She had just sent a few screen shots of her conversation with Helena to Zatanna to read and message her thoughts when she got a response from the most human of her best friends.
Cool, I'll ask him later if he's up to meeting you. Can you also see if the Kents would be alright with meeting him too?
Kara smiled as she responded.
I'm sure they will.
...
"You have a very lovely home Mrs. Parker, very cozy" Bobbi said as she examined the main living room, noting the various pictures of May and her husband and her brother in law Richard Parker and his at the time fiancé Mary Fitzpatrick, the latter pictures were the ones she noticed Peter focused on the most.
"Thank you miss" May said a she exited the kitchen with a tray of tea and some cookies.
The tray was barely on the coffee table for a second before Peter shot a black web line from his wrist at the cookies and yanked over the baked goods and proceeded to scarf them down like an animal. May blinked at the display of his powers while Bobbi's brow twitched at the lack of manners the boy had. It wasn't until Peter had shoved the third cookie down his throat that he noticed the looks he was getting from the two women and grinned sheepishly, chocolate marring his lips and teeth.
"Uh, sorry? Did either of you want one?"
Bobbi shook her head as she took her cup of tea "No, I'm on a diet"
"I'm fine dear" May said with a small laugh as she pulled a bit of Peter's webbing that landed on the tea kettle "Though, would you please refrain from grabbing things with your... webs?"
"Yes ma'am" Peter nodded as he swallowed another cookie before he rubbed off the excess chocolate on to his 'sleeve'.
'The fuck, did you just use me to clean your face off?!' Venom hissed in outrage.
'It was chocolate' Peter responded with a mental shrug as he ate another cookie while Bobbi and May discussed Peter's predicament of being a meta-human and a few details of how he was found, which was heavily redacted from the truth.
'Fuck you, I'm not a napkin that you can use! I'm a Klyntar, one of the oldest and most dangerous species in the Universe' Venom growled towards Peter, tightening the 'shirt' he was wearing to uncomfortable levels 'I've seen the down fall of entire empires that spanned entire galaxies, brought millennia old civilizations to their knees alone and have seen the rise and fall of Gods and Demons more times than you've blinked your eyes. I will not be treated as some damn napkin that you can wash your fucking mouth on all because you- wait... did she put almond chocolate in these cookies?' Venom asked in a near whisper as he absorbed the chocolate essence on Peter's sleeve.
'Yeah' Peter said with a hum as he ate another cookie as May and Bobbi reached the part where ARGUS had found him and after several days of questioning and scavenging what little data they could from Cadmus's records, discovered who he was and then proceeded to track down his family.
'Hmmm... swipe me a few later to digest and I'll overlook your impudence for using me as some damn paper towel' Venom hissed.
'Maybe' Peter said with a mental laugh as he refocused on the conversation between his Aunt and Agent Morse.
"Will these Cadmus people try to come for Peter again?" May asked worriedly "They don't sound like the kind of people to let him go"
"We have reason to believe they may try to require him, which is why me and another agent will be watching out for you two for the next few weeks, till we can track down what's left of Cadmus and shut'em down" Bobbi said as she placed her tea cup down "And the League has promised to have one of it's members on standby in the event they send someone or something that's beyond mine or my partner's capabilities"
"Hope their tough" Peter said as he rested his elbow on his knee and placed his head on his palm.
"It's Red Tornado" Bobbi said with a grin "I'm sure he's more than capable"
"Ooh, Red Tornado?" May said in pleasant surprise "I used to have pictures of him all over my wall as a child. He was my favorite member of the Justice Society"
"I was more of a Sandman fan. Plus he looked awesome" Bobbi admitted.
"Justice who huh?" Peter said with confusion.
"The Justice Society of America" May informed her nephew "Think of them as the Justice League's predecessors. They operated back in the forties and fifties"
"Oh... cool" Peter said with a simple shrug.
"Shame to see kids now days have no actual good taste in superheroes" Bobbi said with a shake of her head.
"It'll be one of the first things I teach him, well that in proper manners when it comes to eating" May said with a laugh which in turn caused Peter to scowl.
"My table manners are great. I don't eat with my mouth open like a savage!" Peter said with a scoff.
"No, you just eat like one" May said with a snort.
"Amen to that" Bobbi said with a snicker as she stood up and reached into her pocket and pulled out a small card and gave it to May "Here, my number in case you have any further questions or need help. ARGUS understands that raising a super powered kid, a teenager no less, isn't easy"
"Thank you" May said as she took the card before something occurred to her "Will the Justice League be involved by any chance? Aside from having a member on hand should someone come from my nephew?"
"We tend to keep them away from this kind of thing" Bobbi said, a little uncomfortable by the question "Their good at saving the day yeah, but when it comes to dealing with the more domestic side of things... yeeaaaaah they could be a little better"
"I understand" May said with a nod.
"Finally, someone that recognizes that their not all knowing or perfect" Bobbi said with a snort before she glanced at Peter and reached out and ruffled his hair with a wink "Try to stay out of trouble if you can kid. I mean it"
The memory of Peter standing in Mount Justice with several other super powered teens and being told they were gonna be a covert team for the League crossed his mind and caused him to smirk a little.
"I'll do my best"
...
Across the street from the Parker household, a single figure laid crouch on the rooftop of a two story house that gave them a perfect view of the living room where Peter and his Aunt talked while the ARGUS agent made her way back to her car while reaching into her pocket for her phone, likely to contact her partner and give her an update.
"Target has been located, Forest Hills in Queens New York. He's been introduced to his Aunt" the figure said into a small commlink as they decloaked to show that they were a young woman dressed in a advanced black tech suit with white accents on the arms, legs and around the collar that matched the color of their snow white hair tied in a messy pony tail on their head.
"Security?" an elderly voice responded.
"Two ARGUS agents. Not your typical run of the mill kind either. Guess the League asked for a bit more than usual from them and it seems Waller is willing to help them in this regard" the figure said with her lenses zooming in on the ARGUS agent and ran a quick facial scan to ID her.
"Can you handle them?" the voice asked on the other end of the commlink.
The white haired woman watched as the Agent drove away before they sighed "Honestly? Not sure. One on one maybe, but both? No"
"..."
"..."
"Fall back for now" the voice ordered.
"Who you gonna send to deal with this?" the watcher asked with curiosity.
"Don't worry about it. For now, maintain observation and make a note of anything that stands out" the voice said in an impatient tone.
"Well, he almost caught me watching him, does that count?" the woman asked with a hint of amusement in her tone.
The voice made a surprised sound at this "You let him almost see you? That's unusual, your better than that"
The woman shrugged, unbothered by her near discovery "I was cloaked at the time, but he still seemed to be aware that I was there, or at least the suit was. Not where I was exactly, but he knew I was watching him"
"Interesting..." the voice muttered.
The woman was silent as she observed her target more and grinned as she spoke with a sly tone "You know, I could just-"
"No, you've been given your assignment. You are strictly to observe and monitor, not engage in any form or fashion. This is coming from the top. Do you understand?" the voice demanded, causing the woman to roll her eyes.
"Fiiine"
"Good. I expect a status report within the week" the voice said in a way that said they were done speaking with her.
"Oh joy, I get baby sitting duty. How fun. Ugh, why can't you get someone like Jade to do this? God knows she doesn't do nearly enough of this shit" the woman said with an annoyed look on her face, she had better things to do then play watcher to some guy, a cute guy she'd admit, but still a waste of her time if she couldn't do anything else with him other than watch him like a creepy stalker.
"She has other duties to attend to. You've been given your orders, the matter is closed" the voice said, their tone growing slightly irritated at having to explain themselves.
"But-"
"The Matter. Is. Closed Felicia" the voice warned.
"Okay, okay, I get it, no need to be such an asshole about it" Felicia said with a scowl towards the device.
"Remember what I said Felicia, no interactions with the target or you'll find out personally how Ra's al Ghul deals with disobedience"
Felicia couldn't help but roll her eyes at the threat before she switched the commlink off and stored it in her suit's belt as she turned her attention back to the Parker residence across the street.
"Whatever you say Sensei... whatever you say" Felicia muttered as she zoomed in on the Parker guy again.
He really was cute... very cute in her opinion.

It was close to ten when Peter finally made his way into his new bedroom and fell on to his new bed after a rather pleasant dinner with his aunt at a local Thai restaurant.
It was completely bare given that no one had lived in it for close to a decade and had some dust on a few surfaces. Aunt May promised that they would be heading to the store tomorrow to begin shopping for new clothes, bed sheets, shoes and whatever else a teen needed to survive in the modern world.
'And don't forget about the chocolate' Venom said before he had a mass of himself appear out of Peter's chest and take the rough shape of his head, his 'eyes' staring deep into his "I wat varying flavors"
Peter scowled at the alien "I hope you realize that my Aunt isn't rich. we can't just go and start buying a crap ton of chocolate"
Venom glared at Peter and growled "Who says we can't? You don't need to worry abut clothes, I can make you clothes. So there's several hundred dollars saved right there"
"Yeah, black, with black and more black" Peter said with a eye roll.
"If you want more varying colors, then say so!" Venom hissed as he had the shirt he made for Peter shiver and slowly turn red "See, there! A different color from back... even if you look better in it anyway"
Peter looked down at the shirt with a thoughtful look on his face "Hmm, I suppose that'll work"
"It's going to work" Venom said as he formed a small tendril and flicked Peter's nose with it "Now, back to the chocolate-"
Venom was cut off as the door suddenly opened and May stepped through.
"Peter, I was wondering if you would-..." Aunt May began before she stopped dead at the sight of Venom's head.
The Symbiote's head snapped towards her and his 'eyes' widened before he gave her his best 'friendly grin' he could muster, which in hindsight made him look even more terrifying. The tendril he had form into a small hand didn't help his image much either.
Peter couldn't help but grin and wave nervously at his Aunt too "Heeeey Aunt May. Um, this is uh, this is Venom. Don't worry he's potty trained, hehehe... kinda, heh"
May simply blinked at the Symbiote before she slowly fell backwards and would have slammed into the ground if Peter didn't shoot two black web lines out and catch her and slowly lowered her to the floor before he rushed over and checked on her with worry on his face.
"Ah man, please don't be dead, don't be dead, don't be dead"
It'd just be his luck that the moment his kind and caring new Aunt sees Venom she has a heart attack and dies.
...
And done.
