I haven't been doing the disclaimer at every chapter, I'll fix that later, but thanks for the reviews, I have a lot to type, so I don't think I'll be stopping any time soon!!! Lol!
Disclaimer: I do not own Spider-man, or any of its characters, though I hope to draw comics for it when I am older.
Chapter 4:
They left for the mall after telling Jane's mom where they were going, she said that would be "fine", and to "have a nice time."
"Lets go that way, its quicker." said Jane pointing toward a shortcut through an alley way.
"Ah, you sure?" asked Ala, she didn't like alleys.
"Yeah, it's a small alley, I don't think anyone's going to jump us or anything." said Jane. They walked over to the alley. Someone was waiting for them alright. A guy in a mask grabbed Jane by the arms and another jumped Ala as they walked past a dumpster. "A little late aren't you?" thought Ala when she felt a tingle go down her spine. "Let me go!" yelled Jane struggling to get free. Ala started thinking of ways to get out of here alive without showing Jane anything.
Jane suddenly picked up one of her legs and back kicked the one mugger into a wall, Ala stood mouth agape, the other one that was holding Ala pulled out a knife now, pressing it against Ala's throat.
"Don't move, or I'll slit your friends throat!" he said gruffly. Ala's face grew red hot and she back kicked him into a garbage can with all her strength and proceeded to punch him several times. Jane stood, this time with her mouth open even more than Ala's was, as Ala pushed her hands together. The other guy was starting to get up, he was pulling out a gun and pointing it to Jane.
"Oh no you don't!" said Ala and webbed him down. If it was possible, Jane's mouth was open wider than before. "Now do you know why I hate alley ways?" asked Ala to Jane "Oh, ah, yeah about that.." said Ala hiding her hands behind her back. "Hey, what was that super strength anyway?" Jane only stared. "Oh great, I think I gave you a heart attack." said Ala rolling her eyes. Jane shook her head.
"I didn't put two and two together I guess." said Jane finally closing her mouth.
"Well, what was with the super strength?" asked Ala again. "Or was I imagining that you back kicked that dude into a wall?" he said pointing to the other mugger who wasn't moving. Jane just shrugged her shoulders.
"I really don't know." she answered. Ala could tell she was lying through her teeth.
"Sure..." said Ala and Jane smiled.
"Well, does this mean the photographer and teacher known as your dad is Spider-man?" asked Jane. Ala put her hands to her mouth.
"Now I didn't think you would ever guess in a million years!" said Ala sarcastically.
"Oh, shut up." said Jane and slapped Ala lightly on the shoulders, it was actually so strong though that the force knocked Ala to the ground. "Sorry!" Okay, I'll tell you the truth." said Jane and Ala stood up brushing dirt and garbage grime off of herself.
"It's okay, shoot." said Ala. Just then the robber not tied down made a lung for Ala, she ducked when her spidey sense went off. Then she jumped and kicked him in the face, then last she webbed him down.
"Okay, that still surprised me." said Jane, she was referring to Ala's powers.
"Yeah, get used to it!" said Ala and laughed. Jane didn't really laugh but smiled.
"Anyways, my mom was and is Black Cat." said Jane. "I don't know if you..."
"Yeah! Dad used to tell me about all of his adventures. Even mom has some stories like that to tell. Black Cat was a cool super hero." said Ala giving Jane a thumbs up. "But dad never knew who she was and same with her." Jane nodded.
"Mom's always been curious to who was behind the mask." said Jane "I won't tell though." said Jane hurriedly at the look she received from Ala.
"I guess you could, I mean if your mom seriously knew him and won't tell any body else." said Ala shifting her feet "But that's more up to my dad to decide." she finished off.
"Okay, well off to the mall!" said Jane thrusting her hand in the air, Ala started laughing so hard she had to balance using the garbage dumpster.
Going home was not on Ala's to do list, so because it was Friday, she stayed at Jane's for a long time. She saw her dad swing by looking for her all the time when they would go out for a while, but she would duck out of the way. When Jane questioned this Ala finally told her.
"Dad doesn't want me having powers, he made some kind of cure, and I ran away." said Ala staring into space in Jane's bedroom, trying to keep her voice down so Jane's mom didn't ketch anything.
"Oh, family problems in other words?" asked Jane.
"Yeah." said Ala smiling.
"Hey, should we tell Clover about all this?" asked Jane and Ala thought for a moment. She had barely been able to show Jane her powers, but telling Clover who didn't have any powers, well it wasn't on Ala's to do list either.
"I guess so. Or we could wait until we get jumped again, you could throw the guys through a window, and I'll web them down." said Ala and Jane chuckled.
"No, we should tell her verbally so we don't give her a stroke, or at least show her where no one else will see." said Jane, it was Ala's turn to chuckle.
"Yeah, we should tell her." said Ala finally seriously. She had said the exact opposite to what she had been thinking before. "I better get home." said Ala sighing "hopefully he won't slip me something while I'm sleeping." Ala was referring to her dad.
"Good luck with that." said Jane and Ala said good-bye and left. Once she got home she saw her mom sitting on the couch smiling slightly.
"I was worried about you, sit down." said her mom, Ala did so and hugged her mom. "Your not going to make me take that cure are you?" asked Ala, she shivered, and her mom smiled bigger.
"No! Neither is you dad, he was worried about you too when you ran off like that." said her mom and Ala smiled a little.
"I just want to be who I am." said Ala "weirdo powers and all."
"What Tiger, I mean you dad, needs to realize is that you need to make your own decisions on this. Like he did." said MJ rubbing Ala's forehead lightly.
"Yeah." said Ala nodding "What I want is to help dad and just be myself struggling through life like anyone else, only unique with this." said Ala trying to explain the way she felt the best she could.
"I understand. Its getting late, you should go to bed." said MJ and Ala nodded
"Good night, love you." said Ala and she ran up the stairs. About an hour later, Peter came home and Mary Jane told him Ala came home, he sighed full of relieve.
"Now Tiger, I think you should just leave her alone for a little while, she's not mad at you, but she needs some space I think." said MJ, Peter agreed quickly, he didn't want to upset his daughter again. They went up to bed shortly after.
A evil man sat reading the daily bugle, Ala had ran into him earlier that day, he was still mad that he let her get away.
"You need to destroy Peter, and this new Spider!" his dad, Norman, was shouting at him from one of the various mirrors Harry had set up around this old building.
"I know!" said Harry back aspirated. "I know! Tomorrow, we strike." he looked back down at what he was writing at his desk, he hoped Peter would find it...
Ala woke early, the first thing she did was make sure she could still climb her wall, she was happy to find herself easily on her ceiling. She heard footsteps, but before she could jump down, her mom was at the door.
"Haha, get down from there Ala!" laughed her mom shaking her head. Ala laughed to and jumped down.
"I just had to check." said Ala grinning.
"Oh, before I forget, Clover called to ask if you wanted to come over." said her mom
"Sure, can I?" asked Ala jumping up and down.
"Yes, as long as you don't go web slinging her around or anything." said Mary Jane, shaking her head at her daughter.
"Ah, why not?" asked Ala sarcastically.
"You know why! Anyways I'm off to another rehearsal." said her mom and kissed her "Love you."
"Love you too." said Ala. She watched from her door, her mom walked down stairs, and outside closing the door behind her with a metallic click. Ala got dressed and headed over to Clover's. She had a feeling Jane told Clover to call her, Jane probably wanted to tell Clover today. She just hoped that Clover wouldn't feel bad being the only one out of their group that didn't have powers, or maybe...nah.
Ala arrived at Clover's house in about fifteen minutes.
"Hi." said Ala when Clover answered her knock.
"Hey, come on in." said Clover smiling. Ala went inside and sat down next to Jane on Clover's bed in her small bedroom.
"So, what's up?" asked Ala pretending not to have a clue why Clover asked her over. Jane gave her a weird look. Ala stuck out her tongue causing Jane to burst out in laughter.
"I don't know myself." said Clover over Jane's laughter shrugging her shoulders. "Jane said you had something to tell me." Ala shrugged.
"We'll tell you as long as your sure there's nobody in this house besides you, Jane, and me." said Ala twirling her red hair with her fingers.
"Um, yeah." said Clover. She was way curious now.
"Oky doky then." said Ala jumping up. She walked over to one of Clover's bedroom walls. She put one hand on the wall, then her right foot, then her other hand, and finally her last foot. She preceded to climb the wall and hang upside down from the ceiling.
"You...you..." Clover's mouth was open so wide with surprise that Ala could swear she could fit her fist in there.
"Um, yeah, well Jane your turn." said Ala looking down at Jane. Jane got up and easily lifted Clover's bed and then set it down after twirling it around with one hand for a while. Ala thought that Clover was about to die of shock. She jumped from the ceiling and patted Clover on the back.
"Snap out of it Clover." said Jane, she had a worried look on her face.
"Your scaring us Clover!" said Ala waving a hand in front of Clover's face.
"Think we scared her a lot more." said Jane. "Maybe this wasn't such a swift idea."
"Yeah, if she faints lets just tell her it was a dream." said Ala. Clover closed her mouth and then reopened it.
"I...I thought I was the only one." said Clover. Both Ala and Jane looked at her bewildered.
"Ah, what do you mean?" Did you have a dream or something?" asked Ala, trying on her best acting. Usually she was good at it because her mom was a actress, but this time it didn't fool Clover.
"Haha Ala." said Clover shaking her head "I mean the only one out of us that's a mutant." said Clover.
"Ah, back it up a sec." said Ala "I'm not a mutant." She rolled her eyes, a mutant, please...
"What do you call climbing walls and twirling furniture?" asked Clover putting her hands on her hips. "Or are you still trying to play dumb?"
"No, hello! Having your dad bit by a radio active spider might be a clue that I'm not a mutant!!" Ala yelled. Clover was giving her such a headache already.
"A what?" asked Jane.
"Long story." replied Ala sighing.
"Then how do you explain Jane twirling furniture?" asked Clover getting frustrated.
"Mom's got super strength because of some experiment thing involving King Pin..." said Jane trailing off. Ala lifted an eyebrow, that was new to her. "What?" asked Jane seeing the look Ala was giving her.
"Nothing." said Ala "So, if your saying you have powers, what are they and please show us." said Ala to Clover who was taken aback.
"Oh, um, flying." said Clover, they looked down and Clover was no longer touching the ground.
"Sweet." said Jane.
"Totally." said Ala and nodded.
"Stop making fun of movies Ala!" said Jane slapping her on the back. Ala was forced forward and hit the ground. "Sorry!"
"So k." came a muffled reply.
