Winblades: Yeah, he'll have to rebuild them. And this is the Secret Society from season 2 I think you're confusing that with The Six. Not sure if I would want to do a sequel I don't have one planned.
Jezrianna: Glad you liked that but I wasn't sure if those two power had shown up yet in her yet, but I'll look into that. Yeah he's the only Marvel one.
Ldypebsaby: Oh yeah he remembers and I'll explain about the tentacles later on since they were destroyed a while ago in the comics I came up with something.
Erich: Actually she has been called Babes a few times, Peter won't be going to STAR labs since the base that made Tea was blown up. I'm pretty sure Peter won't tell anyone and Kara would be too embarrassed to say anything to Barbara, and you're right about him not being ready I got something planned soon to deal with that. I assume you mean the entire League and not the main members right? Well trust me there's a reason for Ock and I hop you like what I got planned.
The Uncanny R-Man: I'll keep that in mind for the next chapter for that group and I never saw the episode either but apparently Powergirl in that show was Kara's clone.
slickboy444: Yeah it was wasn't it? Kind of the reason I felt Peter would be able to help her out. That was just too good a scene to pass up for me, and you have no idea how much trouble Doc Ock will cause it will surprise you.
Joseph McKinley: Glad you like those two together, and yeah that's how Peter go to this world and other DC villains will show up.
Malciah: Yeah that will be covered although I think it's self-explanatory with how he got to the DC universe.
Jedi3: Well Cat wasn't done much in the comics but I do have something planned when he meets Catwoman and at first thinks it's Black Cat. Besides in the comics he was closer to MJ anyway and that's why the focus on her.
Star Lin: I may bring in the Question later on. And those two will get over it, eventually.
Comics Girl: Of course she's on the list of love interest, the training will come later and you bet they will be surprised by Doc Ock's violent streak.
X-Over: Interesting ideas, I'll give it some thought. But I'll try and stick with the original members.
SiriusAboutMarauders: Glad you enjoyed that bathroom scene so much. Yeah the mystery is being revealed and the Doc will bring more trouble then anyone will expect.
Casey: Black Friday? I'm not sure what you meant by that. Plus I've been working on other fics and sometimes certain ones get a little behind. Yeah I think the second movie was better I just bought it.
Fallenone: Yeah I saw that Static episode and I heard about that JLU one too.

JUSTICE LEAGUE: THE SPIDER
CHAPTER 13: THE SOCIETY PART 1
-Secret Location-
In an underground base there was a gathering of super villains. At a planning table was the newly reformed Secret Society. At the head of the table was Gorilla Grodd a large dark haired ape from the hidden Ape City. He was their only criminal and outcast who was a super genius by human or ape standards.
There was Giganta a tall beautiful red head in a pink toga with the ability to grow in size. She had been part of the first Society. There was also Killer Frost another original member. She was a pale Goth girl with a blue costume with ice powers, and dark hair spiked down over her face that ended right before her eyes. She was here because she enjoyed killing and knew she would have plenty of opportunity with the Society again.
Another old member was The Shade. A skinny man in black and gray clothing with a black top hat, cane and glasses. His power was to make living shadows that engulfed and blinded others. He wasn't sure about coming back to this since every time he had joined with a team they normally got their butts kicked and was sent back to prison.
Two new members were Livewire. The woman was pale with spiked up light blue hair and skintight black body suit with a lightning bolt cut down the center of the chest on the suit. She had electrical powers and a wild behavior. The other was Deadshot a mercenary with a red and silver body suit, full mask with targeting enhancement over his right eye and weapons on his wrists and belt.
"I'd like to thank you all for coming and for those of you trusting in me enough to try the Society once more." Grodd said to everyone at the table.
"Well I'm still not sure about this. The last time even though we nearly did defeat the League, now in case you haven't noticed ever person in a cape, tights or spandex is now a member." Shade said to him.
"I'll admit that taking on the entire League would be normally impossible." Grodd told him. "But if you can not confront your enemy directly then we must do it indirectly."
"What do you mean by that ape-boy?" Livewire asked him.
He scowled at her but continued on. "I once made a device that enhanced my mind to take over an entire city. But I have a better idea." He activated an image on a screen on the wall next to them. It was of a diagram of a machine. "This is a much more powerful version of that machine and with it I can target selected individuals anywhere on the planet."
"So what?" Deadshot asked him, he didn't really care he was getting paid but he was interesting in knowing what the job was. "You going to take over a country or something?"
"Nothing so cliché." He said to him. "With this I will control every single hero on the face of the planet. With them we can conquer the world and there will literally be no one to stop us."
"Using the heroes to take over the world huh?" Killer Frost asked and then smiled. "Kinky."
"So why do you need us?" Shade asked him. "Why not just build the damn thing already?"
"Because my good man." Grodd said to him leaning forward on the table. "There are certain items I need that I can't get to by myself. So I need your help in not only stealing the devices but also to make sure no one interferes with the thefts."
"So what's first on the list?" Deadshot asked him.
Grodd smiled. "I'm glad you asked."
-Central City-
An elderly couple visiting Central City was enjoying their time seeing the sights of Central City. "See I told you this was better then Metropolis." The man said to his wife with a camera.
"I know you were right Harold." She said to him rolling her eyes.
"Yes I mean sure they got Superman, but they also have super villains attacking that city all the time. At least here things are peaceful." The man said adjusting his glasses.
"Oh my, what in the world is that?" His wife pointed over at a building across the street, or where the building had been, it was now covered in a black substance. She got the camera ready taking shots of it as other people started to stare and watch. Then a side of the building seemed to explode out of the darkness sending debris across the street scattering a few of the by standers.
"So Central City is nice and quiet huh?" She snapped at him taking more shots. "If this was quiet we should have gone to Gatham." She snapped more photos as the members of the Society marched out of the darkness.
Giganta was over fourteen feet carrying a large machine over her shoulder the others were creating random destruction. "I hope you got all the cameras Shade." Grodd said over to him. "I'd would not want anyone knowing exactly who was behind all of this, if we want to pull this off we can't have the League or anyone else know that the Society is back and who are new members are."
"Why is that so important?" Shade asked he was still covering the place in darkness until they were out of range of the security cameras.
"Because you must know your enemy in order to defeat them and if they don't know it is us it will give us time, they will find out eventually but the longer they wonder who is responsible the longer it will take for them to track us down and I need all the time I cant get with this."
"Alright, alright I get it." Shade told him.
Livewire saw the couple with the camera. "Hey no pictures folks." She fired out lighting at the two of them and the old lady dropped her camera as they ran. Livewire laughed seeing the old couple run like teenagers.
"Livewire get a move on." Deadshot shouted out to her.
"Man you are such a killjoy." She muttered and walked back to the group as they made their escape with the device.
-Watch Tower-
Peter was in his Spider-Man uniform doing some work at the Watch Tower, mainly just a system check and to see if anyone needed a hand. It had been three days since the shower incident with Kara. They had spoken to each other but neither one had really looked into each other's eyes at the moment. Plus whenever he took a shower he kept on getting that image of Kara in a towel and that wasn't something he wanted to think of one of his best friends…wasn't it? He had to admit Kara was attractive-no! He wouldn't think of her like that, he wasn't ready…and…he wasn't sure if she felt the same and if she didn't that wasn't going to be healthy for their relationship. He liked her too much as a friend to ruin what they had…but then why couldn't he get her out of his mind lately?
At the moment he was just hanging out hoping for trouble to take his mind of things at the moment. At the moment there didn't seem much to do, a few teams were out taking care of a few details and Peter was wondering if he should take a few swings around Manhattan instead.
"Spider." He turned to Diana calling over to him, since the original league knew his name and had often called him Peter for most of the time they had known him they now usually referred to as 'Spider' mainly because only a select knew of his real identity and he wasn't comfortable with the entire league knowing about him, there was too many people that could leek his real identity and from past experience he wanted to make sure who he told his real name to.
"Yo what's up Diana?" He turned to face the taller Amazon that looked like she should be modeling with those looks of hers. But if he what he heard from Flash was true then all of the women on that island was like that.
"There was a robbery in Central City and we've been called in." She informed him.
"I take it because we're being called in this wasn't a normal robbery." Peter sated as they walked along the halls together to the hanger.
She nodded her head not surprised, she knew that Peter was smarter then he let on at times and had learned to underestimate him. "It was a government lab but they couldn't tell us who it was."
"Why not?"
"Because the place was shrouded in darkness." She told him and Peter was thinking who or what could have done that. But she already knew. "There is a villain known as The Shade with that kind of ability but the equipment was too heavy for him to live it and it was too organized for just him to have done this."
"So a team operation then." Peter nodded. "So who are you taking?"
"Us." Peter looked to the entrance of the hanger deck to see Donna there along with Flash, Batman and this one guy he knew as Booster Gold. He hadn't meet him yet but the man with the winning smile, golden haired and golden and blue suited man with a star on his chest, had a reputation of being a glory hound from the 25th century. Now normally he wouldn't believe this but hell he was from an alternate dimension and was friends with at least four aliens and an immortal Amazon and a whole lot of other things. He also noticed his little golden robot Skeets. It was a small circular object with a scanner that looked like one big eye.
"Hey guys." Spider-Man said and looked over to Booster Gold who looked like he wasn't pleased with something. "Hey, nice to finally meet you…is something wrong?"
Booster just shrugged. "I was hoping for something more exciting or high profile then a simple theft."
"There's nothing 'simple' about this." Batman said coldly to him. "Whatever was stolen was top secret and most likely dangerous. Trust me, if action is what you want you'll most likely get it."
-Central City-
They used one of the Javelins to fly to Central City. Batman and Wonder Woman took the two front seats as Booster and Flash sat next each other and Peter was sitting Donna. He noticed she had been looking at her sister and Batman with a curious expression. "Do my sister and Batman seem…close to you?" She whispered to him.
Peter looked at them and from what Flash had told him he said that Batman and Wonder Woman had something going on, or at least Diana wanted to and Batman either didn't return those feelings or wouldn't let himself feel anything. Peter had watched them closely and he had to admit that in the week he had been watching them he had to admit there did seem to be some chemistry of some kind.
"I'm not sure myself but I have noticed a few things, why? You know Diana better you see anything?" Peter asked her in a hush tone interested in any inside scoop.
She grinned at him. "I'm not sure myself, but I do know I have never seem my sister seem so interested before."
"We're coming in for a landing." Batman said unaware of the conversation going on behind him. They came down in the street next to the building that had been cornered off by soldiers. When they came down the ramp they saw the usual on lookers and reporters by the barricade and a man in an army uniform with captain bars walked forward.
"Am I glad you guys are here, it's a damn mess."
"What was stolen?" Batman asked as they walked to the building with a giant hole in it's side.
"It was a top secret project used for a certain Esper program, but that's all I'm at liberty to say." The Captain informed him.
"Esper?" Flash asked anyone to clarify that for him.
"People with ESP." Spider-Man said to him.
"You know telepathy, clairvoyance, astral projection." Batman continued. "Governments have been experimenting with that since the Cold War." They walked into the science labs and saw where something was ripped out of the floor and cracks that could only be from footprints from some very heavy lifting.
Batman looked around the place kneeling down for clues. "Like we informed you the entire place was covered in darkness and we don't know who took the equipment." The Captain said.
"We already know who one of them were." Diana said.
"And maybe another. There are only a few people that could life something so heavy to leave imprints even partial ones in the ground like this." Batman said studying the cracked floor. "Booster, Spider-Man check outside for anything useful they might have left something behind."
Booster Gold shrugged and Peter nodded and they made their way outside. They looked around the outside of the building but nothing so they moved their way out to the street. Peter saw a few of the people cheering and also Booster Gold playing to the crowd. He was going over and acting like a movie star, it really irritated Peter that someone would use their abilities and status like that. He walked over to him. "What the hell do you think you're doing Booster?"
"Booster? I thought he was the Green Lantern." Someone from the crowd said causing Booster to glare at the direction. Then to Spider-Man. "Hey what's wrong with giving the people what they want? I mean if they want to show their appreciation let them."
"We're not here to play celebrity we got a job to do." Peter said sternly.
"What job? The bad guys are long gone and there's no action to show the world what I can do."
"Is that all that matters to you? Fame?" Peter said angrily and Booster stepped up to him and Peter could see his reflection in the visor he wore.
"Look we all got reasons for doing this, why do you do it if it's not for the glory?"
"Because with great power comes great responsibility." Peter said to him and walked off, he didn't want to say anything else until he calmed down. Out of all the reasons to become a hero Booster had chosen for all the wrong reasons. While looking around he saw scorch marks and looked at them.
He knew they were electrical, battling Electro for years made him an expert in the different kinds of scorch marks and which was electrical or not. He also noticed something in the gutter and noticed it was a camera. The lens was cracked and looked a little beat up but when he picked it up it seemed fine and noticed it was right across from the building.
'I wonder if whoever had this took pictures of the robbery?' Peter wondered. He took it with him back to the others.
-Watch Tower-
Peter was in one of the labs that had a photo development room. Batman had said that he should go and developed the film while he stayed behind with Diana to go over the lab again and Flash and Booster went to look up any information on any similar robberies lately.
Donna had also gone with him to help out if necessary and also to see how developing film was done. She was eagerly watching his every move fascinated by the process. Peter was also a little uncomfortable with having her so close but was glad his mask hides it well.
Peter had carefully checked the camera for damaged and saw that the film had been protected and luckily it had a manual rewinder for the film that just barely worked. He took out the film case and saw it dented but not breached so the film should be intact. He got everything ready for the next part since that would be the hardest especially since he wasn't familiar with this place like he was this his set up at his place.
"Alright Donna I need you to turn out the lights for me so I don't miss my place here." Peter said.
"Alright." She said and went to the switched and turned it off. Peter with years of experience easily opened the canister and pulled the film. He treated it to the proper solution in a circular lightproof canister and went to work on it.
Donna waited patiently not sure what he was doing but heard him working. She moved closer to him whishing she would see in the dark and she could smell the chemicals. "Okay Donna I-whoa!" Peter hadn't noticed she had moved closer and when he turned to face in her direction he had taken a step forward and before his spider sense warned him knocked into Donna. They both fell with Peter on top of her.
Donna was on below him and he sure could feel just how thin that clothing of hers was. It really clung to her frame and he gulped trying not to think about her body pressed up against him like that. "S-sorry about that."
"No, the fault is mine. I should have stayed where I was." Donna said although she could feel his body and he was harder then she thought and could feel the muscles more in depth now and she had to admit, it felt nice.
"Uh…I think we should get up now." Peter said.
"Oh right!" Donna said quickly and was glad for the darkness so her blush didn't show. "HEY!"
"Oh God! I'm sorry I didn't mean to, I mean I couldn't see, I mean-oh man." Peter groaned if he had just touched what he thought he thought he touched, and boy did it feel like it, then this was worse then the Kara incident.
Donna although was surprised by that knew he wouldn't try anything like that without her permission or she would rip his offending hand off. She smiled at him in the darkness through imagining the reaction he was having. "In my culture when a male lays a hand on one of us like that without permission we cut off the hand. But I'll let it slid this time." She heard him sigh and nearly giggled at his reaction. "Next time just ask if you want to feel me like that."
Peter didn't know it was possible to choke without something in his mouth until now. He wasn't sure how to take that and he really didn't want to offend her, especially for a woman who could not only tare him apart but had an older sister who would finished off whatever she left untouched.
"Uh…let's get back to work." He said nervously. After some time he was at the point with the red light looking through the negatives he got printed out.
"This is most fascinating, is it hard to use a camera?" Donna asked standing behind him looking at the negatives over his shoulder.
"Not really I could show you if you want."
"That is good, I never was good at painting and capturing the world without a brush appeals to me. How about at your place you show me?" She asked with a grin and she enjoyed how he seemed to tense up, it was quite amusing.
"Uh…"
She frowned. "You don't trust me? Even though you trust my sister because I know she knows who you are but she hasn't told me."
"It's…complicated." Peter told her. "It's not easy for me to show people who I am, the people close to me are always the ones that get hurt."
She could sense the pain in those words and knew that those close to him had gotten hurt. "I can understand…I just hope I can earn your trust one day, you've been very kind and understanding to me and I would like to call you friend if I may?"
"Actually, I'd like that…and I think I will be able to show you who I am…just give me time." Peter said softly and she nodded and smiled. "Hey, look at this." She leaned in and saw strange images of the building they had been at and of people but she couldn't make them out with the strange coloring.
Peter placed the negative on the projector and placed a plank sheet of photo paper and Donna watched in quiet amazement as the image was 'placed' onto the paper. Peter pulled the images and then dipped the paper in the solutions and hanged them to dray. "Well…looks like we got our guys." He said seeing the ones responsible for robbery.
"I'm sure the others will want to see these." Donna said looking at the ones she knew she would face sooner or later in battle.
