Chapter 2
The Scorpion Man

SpiderMan cringed as the venom flew through is body. The arrow had struck him directly in the shins. Before he knew it, he was unconscious.

Kraven watched as his boss took SpiderMan in his arms and laid him on a table. Then he took out a special syringe. This was to extract the venom from SpiderMan's body. Soon Spidey was awake. And now the fun would begin.

Carl felt like he was dying, but he couldn't scream. He couldn't even feel his body. It was just pain and suffering. There were four men in front of him. Although they looked regular, two he recognized as Lizard and Rhino. The other man looked distinctly like an insect. The other was Kraven. The insect man said, "SpiderMan! You have woken. Now it is time to join the party!" He smiled. "Let us introduce ourselves! Of course, you have met Lizard and Rhino. Then standing in the corner...oops I guess you can't see him there...Vulture, come here now!" An ugly, elderly looking man came up. He had green feathers on his body. "Vulture here started these little cross-human fusion experiments. Then when he took me in, I gave him a bit of mind control and now he works for me!! Well, I have many other beings here, but they are mere lab monkeys...Human Monkeys actually!" Insect took a moment to laugh at his evil joke. Then he continued. "And then there is Kraven. He is not a cross-human, but he works for me still. He brings me those on my list, and then I experiment with them. OH MY!!!! I have forgotten the most important person! Myself! My name is Wilson Gerrald. My alias...The Scorpion!!"

Spidey fell back into unconsciousness after Scorpion's speech. They threw him in a cell, leaving their experiments till the next day. But in the middle of the night, SpiderMan woke up. Rhino was guarding his cell, but had fallen asleep. Spidey could barely move, but he had to try. With ever inch of strength in his body he pulled himself up. He aimed his hand directly on the keys; hanging on Rhino's humongous hand. Soon they were in SpiderMan's hands. He unlocked the door. A bit to loud though, since it woke Rhino up right away! "Oh crud!" Spidey yelled, as he started to run. Rhino got up slowly, but started after Spidey as soon as he could. When Spidey reached the lab room, Scorpion was waiting. This time, he had an orb in his hands. "Touch the nice spherical orb now, Spidey!" he called to SpiderMan. Spidey tried to run, but Rhino grabbed him up swiftly (or as swift as he could be). "Now before I take you away Spidey, I want you to watch the reactions!" Scorpion said, as Vulture and Lizard walked in. Within seconds, Rhino, Lizard and Vulture were on the floor screaming. Lizard's green skin grew scales and gills, Vulture's feathers grew everywhere on him and his back grew wings, and Rhino grew bigger, grayer and horns sprouted out of his head! Then Spidey looked at Scorpion. He was taking this "transformation" better than the others were. He turned blue and grew wider around the chest of stomach area. The blue skin turned into armor that crushed his lab coat and pants, so he was naked (but the armor covered unnecessary to mention areas). Then, he grew a tail from his back. It had a long, poisonous needle on the tip of it. Spidey then assumed this would be a bit tougher than he thought.
