The Lizard's Lab
My personal life has been going downhill ever since I put on this mask, but I know that with great power comes an even greater responsibility. And with those words I know that I can't stop, because there is only one Spider-Man.
Once again, my story starts out with me doing my usual patrol through the city.
All of a sudden an alarm broke the silence of the calm, cool night.
"It's never easy is it?" I sighed to myself as I followed the sound of the alarm. It was the jewelry store. I was on a flag pole as I saw three men come running out with pockets full into an old beat-up car, and sped off. "Why do they always run?" I asked myself as I swung after them.
The chase didn't last long. I swung down until I was just over the hood of the car, jumped, landed on the car.
"The spider-freak! Yo ,Spike, shot 'im!" the driver said. My Spider-Sense rang in my head as Spike shot at me. I bent back as the bullet zoomed past where I was not even a second ago. I bent my middle and ring finger on both hands and the webs shot out covering the wind shield and making so that the driver couldn't see the road ahead.
They went strait through a fire-hydrant and went crashing toward an apartment! So I landed on the ground, spun a web that stuck to the back wheels of the car, and I pulled as hard as I could to make the car slow down, but the friction from the wheels was making my web start to burn away so I shot out webs as fast as I could at the two light posts that were on both sides of the building so I could catch the car on the web. I had to make the web extremely strong. Five seconds till impact…
As it neared the web I had tons of thoughts going through my head: will it hit? If it does, will everyone think it's my fault? Is it my fault? Have I taken out the trash yet? If a tree falls the middle of the forest, and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound? I don't know. STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF!
Three… two… one…
The car hit the web but did not break through. Yes, I'd done it! Oh yeah, remember when I said the chase didn't last long? Yeah, I lied. Well anyway, the three guys got out of the car, guns firing at me.
I dodged some bullet, shot out two strands of web at two of the guns and pulled them, toward me. I grabbed the guns, and threw them behind me, but there was still one gun left, so I (once again) shot out two webs at the two unarmed men and yanked them toward the last man and made him fly into a dumpster. All three men were unconscious so I webbed them together, and hung them on a street light up-side-down, and said, "Say hello to my friends in the slammer for me, okay," and swung away.
I was about half a mile away when I heard a crash coming from Dr. Connors lab. "Not again," I said to myself as I let go of the web I was swinging from and landed on the building across the street. You see, Dr. Connors lost his right arm in a war and tried to regrow it using lizard DNA, but something went horribly wrong (like always) and now whenever he gets mad, Dr. Connors transforms into the Lizard. Well at least when he transforms, he gets his arm back.
So I crashed through the window of Dr. Connors lab and noticed right away that something wasn't quite right. Every thing was a mess. The cabinets were tipped over with everything all over the floor. Tables were smashed and test-tubes were shattered with their contents every where, but in one corner of the room, there was a table that was not destroyed. On it was a test-tube labeled: Monster Control Serum. The doc must have created a serum that gives him control when he becomes the Lizard, but he transformed before he could try it.
So I poured some of it into a smaller container so that I could carry it in a pocket that usually carries a web cartridge. "I hope this works," I whispered to myself as I walked toward a door that led to the next room.
A ringing in my head! Spider-Sense! And I saw the giant Lizard leap from the shadows. I jumped over the Lizard, and as I was just over it's back, I pushed down my feet and forced the Lizard to the ground.
I reached for the serum, but a gigantic tail hit me right in the stomach. I flew back and crashed into a table across the room. I got up, grabbed a large chunk of wood and threw it at it.
It grabbed it and broke it like it was a twig, but when he looked I was gone. I was behind the Lizard as I spun a large cob web in between me and the lizard and said, "Look behind you, Lizard-Boy."
The Lizard quickly turned around and lunged at me, but got cot in the web. Once again I reached for the serum, but I over-estimated the strength of the web and the Lizard broke through before I was able to grab it.
The lizard crashed into me, grabbed me by the shoulders and squeezed. I screamed in pain and agony. Then he threw me through the wall into the next room. I felt dizzy and couldn't feel my arms.
Spider-Sense! I tried to jump over the Lizard but he grabbed my wrists and squeezed. Now that was not good, because he crushed my web shooters so I couldn't shoot webs! And now I couldn't feel my wrist! This was not a good day for my arms
Then it turned around and whacked me with its tail, I flew back, turned around and stuck to the wall. I grabbed the serum and said to myself, " I only got one shot at this and I hope it works," and with that I jumped, opened the bottle and splashed it in the Lizard's mouth, but that just seemed to enrage it even more and it lunged at me!
Just as it was about to deliver the final blow, it stopped. "Wha- where am I? What are you doing here Spider-Man?" it said in Dr. Connor's voice.
"Doc! Your serum worked! You're the Lizard, but you're in control!" I said, to exited to breathe.
"Well would you look at that, I am! Thank you Spider-Man. I owe you big time!" he said to me.
"It's all apart of the job," I said as I was about to jump out the window. I almost forgot, I can't shoot webs with a busted shooter, I thought to myself. So I climbed up to the top of the building and jumped home instead.
"Well at least the Lizard won't join the Kingpin, Venom and Rhino," I said to myself as I jumped on home.
