Disclaimer: The Mysterious Traveller here! Hoo-kay...I'd just like to clear something up before we begin! This whole story takes place in an entirely different world from the Marvel universe and so it takes loads of elements from it and combines them together sometimes changing them a whole lot to create a weird and far-out new cast of characters, situations and adventures! So it's not like I'm trying to rip off Marvel comics, perish the thought! Also I know that I haven't done any work on this for quite a while but that's because I've kinda been wrapped up in my other fics...that's what i get for attempting to write several fics at once right?! Any let's go! Enjoy!!
Genesis of the Zen-Lan Spider-Girl
Prologue: As the world burns
The sun of Zen-La is at boiling point. The plane is covered in green vegetation. Several of the humanoid life-forms of Zen-La sit in rank and file before an artificial platform. On the platform Queen Zenna gives a pompous speech. She is dressed in a strange white toga-arrangement. Lying on her side relaxing on a divan is princess Zen: a beautiful sixteen year old girl with white hair that goes down to her waist. She is clad in a green-blue bikini which fastened in a x at the back with two leather strips. Around her neck resting on her chest is a silver amulet engraved with the glyph of a silver spider.
Zenna: And now on the eve of her sixteenth birthday it is time for my daughter Princess Zen of Zen-La to begin her her sacred duties. I know how proud you must all be as Zen-Lan's to...
Zen: (thinks to herself silently) 'Duty'. Huh. Actually I dont like this kind of work...
Meanwhile on the deck of a great black Drakone warship stands the warlord Skree-Zheltz. he surveys the outside galaxy through the great glass porthole in the cockpit as the ship nears Zen-La. Skree takes attention as a com-link buzzes into life and Xaan the emperor of the Drakone empire contacts the fleet.
Xaan: Skree-Zheltz report.
Skree: Yes yes. 'see to it that the line of the roayal family of Zen-La is wiped out'. This time there will be no failure.
Xaa: Just see to it that you succeed. as long as Princess Zen lives she represents a threat to the Drakone empire.
Xaan signs off.
Skree: Curious...whenever emperor Xaan is irritably disposed my bodily odour sky rockets.
Meanwhile on Zen-La Silver Foxx a black garbed ambassador and knight to the royal family of Zen-La watches Zen on the platform.
Foxx: (Thinks to himself) Poor kid.
A rumbling crackles over the sky and the sky burns with the fire of hell. The humanoids all stare upwards wondering what is going on.
Foxx: What on Zen-La?
(The Drakone warship warps into the atmosphere of the planet.
Zen: (Disbelievingly) A Drakone warship! I cant believe they'd attack our planet!
Panic breaks out among the inhabitants of Zen-La. Skree activates the comlink.
Skree: This is the Drakone clean-up comitte. Please remove all unncessary jewelry and await the detonation of Zen-La's core. That is all. Thank you for your co-operation.
A super-laser cannon slides out of the warship and begins to crackle red as it charges up. The humanoids scatter in different directions. Foxx takes out a small black platinum orb.
Zenna Drags Zen to the base of the platform where she opens a hidden door.
Zenna: this way Zen.
Zen: but mother our planet...
Zenna: It is too late. Zen-La will soon be past. You must escape and continue the legacy of the Spider Knights.
They both enter the secret room beneath the platform. Inside is a teleportation device constructed of great technology that could only have been devised by Zen-La.
Zenna: Zen stand over there on the teleport tile.
And reluctantly Zen obeys. Zenna operates the controls and sets the targetting mechanism to 'earth'.
Zen: Mother...
Zenna hugs her daughter.
Zenna: Please...not a word. I feel the same way you do. Please do not disgrace the Spider Knight's Zen and remember only to use your amulet only for defense.
Zen: As you wish.
The tile glows red and Zen fades away as she is beamed across the galaxy.
Zenna sheds a tear. Outside the Drakone warship finishes charging up it's energy and fires at the planet.
For an instant there is an almost beautiful white light and then....oblivion.
