Chapter 3
Conception
The doctors were amazed at her recovery. Only a week passed by and Mary Jane Watson was discharged from the hospital. She was greeted with open arms and watery eyes from her Aunt Anna and Peter Parker. The only thing the doctors could come up is that a miracle had occurred.
For Mary Jane, things were starting to get back to normal. In fact there was a stack of homework sitting on her desk.
"Can't let you fall behind." Aunt Anna told her.
Mary Jane grimaced and went through the papers. After a an hour went by, the phone rang on her night stand.
She went over and picked up the receiver.
"Hello"
"MJ it's Peter. I hope things are okay. "
"They are, sore in some places. But I'm grateful to be okay."
"It is," Peter then changed his tone of voice to a more upbeat one. "Do you want to go out?"
While the idea of going out with Peter Parker was something that she couldn't turn down. Mary Jane realized that she did survive a car accident and besides her aunt probably wouldn't let her.
"I'm sorry Tiger. Aunt Anna wouldn't let me besides I better take it easy for a few more days."
"Would it be okay to come over?"
She thought about that and was about to say yes when she suddenly felt tired and had a desire to sleep. The clock said it was 4:30 PM.
"Uh you know I think I'll stay in tonight. But we could do something tomorrow?"
"Okay it's up to you. No sense rushing things."
"Sounds like you've been taking a page from Aunt Anna."
"Let's not forget who Aunt May is."
Mary Jane laughed. "Of course."
"Well I'll see you later then."
"Same here, bye."
"Bye"
She hung up the phone and had the desire to sleep. Seeing how there was nothing else. Mary Jane went over to her bead and let herself hit the soft covers. As soon as she closed her eyes. She fell into a deep sleep.
Mary Jane found herself in the middle of an expansive field of green grass with a breeze blowing softly, the sun was shining bright and it felt extremely comfortable. This was one of the most vivid dreams she ever experienced.
As she walked through the fields, there was a strange figure in the horizon. Mary Jane stopped at looked at it from a distance. The figure appeared to be coming closer and growing in size.
Mary Jane screamed as she ran in the opposite direction. But the faster she ran the faster the figure came closer. The dream became a nightmare and Mary Jane couldn't wake up.
She ran as fast as she could but the figure was coming at her heals. With one quick glance, Mary Jane noticed a red or crimson alien figure with claws and that had tendrils that appeared to look like hair. It made strange guttural noises as it came closer for her.
Mary Jane was tired and couldn't keep going. Her clothes were soaked with sweat and heart was going five miles a minute. She felt like she was having a heart attack and with that, she collapsed to the ground, laying face up at the blue sky.
The creature came over and started to cover her body. Beginning with her legs and reached to her upper chest before Mary Jane passed out. She hoped to wake up but all there was darkness.
Aunt Anna Watson looked at the clock and noticed it was 7:30 and close to dinner. She was grateful for the fact Mary Jane survived the crash and that she needed to take it easy. But it was dinner and Mary Jane hadn't come out of her room.
Even though teenagers needed their privacy, Aunt Anna figured it couldn't hurt to knock on the door and check on Mary Jane.
She knocked on the door once. "MJ dinner" she called through the door.
There was no answer.
"Mary Jane, you in there?"
Still, no answer.
Aunt Anna went for the knob and found it unlocked. She twisted the knob and slowly opened the door.
It revealed another shock to Anna Watson's system.
The room was in shambles and what shocked her most there was a gaping hole in the wall facing the door. Now the hole was letting in the setting sun light. Anna Watson screamed and then went to call the police.
Mary Jane was missing.
