MJ was worried because of what Fury had said to her, that she wasn't Mary Jane Watson, but someone Romanoff
"Hey you okay?" Flash asked as he, Harry and Gwen came up to MJ who sadly smiled
"Yeah just having a hard time adjusting to the fact I'm adopted" MJ said
"We're going to find out what happened to your real parents and whatever else" Gwen said
"Thanks guys, anyway I got to get to class" MJ said walking off
"Should we tell her?" Flash asked
"Only after this stuff with Fury and her real parents is figured out, then we tell her and maybe even bring her into the group" Gwen said
"What do Peter and Teresa think?" Harry asked
"I'm not sure" Gwen said
"Agent Parker, do you think I'm making a mistake?" Fury asked
"No idea sir" Teresa said "But I think a heads up would have been good"
"I didn't know until recently" Fury said
"So what are you going to do with her now sir?" Teresa asked
"I'll look things over and then when I meet up with her I'll talk to her and see where things will go from there" Fury said
"What about if she joins my team" Teresa said
"Interesting offer, but what if I put her on another team of trainee heroes" Fury said
"But most of her friends are on my team" Teresa said
"Which is why I'm going to give her the option of continuing as a civilian or joining your team" Fury said
"Good choices" Teresa said
"Okay so what has my Spider-Sense spooked out of its normal functions?" Spiderman asked looking around before it went off again, this time just as a figure in black armour with gunmetal grey webbing in various places, a dark magenta scarf covered most of his face while the rest of it was covered by a hood like mask
"There you are Spiderman" the man said
"So who are you?" Spider-Man said as he dodged a punch from the figure
"I am Tarantula" he said "And I'm here to end your timeline" Tarantula said as he fired out a webline and pulled Spiderman in and deploy a spike on his elbow and drove it into his shoulder making the hero shout out in pain before he was kicked into the wall knocking him. Tarantula then removed the suit from him and picked in him "I thought you would be tougher" he said before disappearing
"Okay, so you want to see me" MJ said as she walked into a diner to see the eyepatch wearing SHIELD leader sipping a coffee
"Yes, I did now order something so this doesn't feel so serious" Fury smiled as he gesture to the seat and a menu, MJ ordered a coffee and a bit of cake before turning to Fury "So what do you know about who I truly am?" she asked
"It turns out Mary Jane Watson was an alias given to you by the person who smuggled you out of Russia" Fury said "Well the Watson part came from your adoptive parents Madeline and Phillip Watson" Fury said
"And my birth parents?" MJ asked
"Natasha Romanoff and Alexei Shostakov, aka" Fury started
"Black Widow and Red Guardian" MJ said "So I'm the daughter of two Russian supers" she bitter laughed
"It appears to be so" Fury said
"So how did I get state side and become MJ Watson?" she asked
"It turns out that there was a SHIELD agent inside the Red Room around the time you were born. Now the Red Room had a plan to raise as a super soldier, no emotions, no childhood; nothing but their next generation of operative. The SHIELD agent wasn't having that so they extracted you to the states" Fury explained.
"How did they get me away from my parents?" MJ asked
"The Red Room nurses told them you were stillborn and that they would deal with the aftermath so they wouldn't have to face them" Fury said "This was of course before your mother flipped and join the Avengers" Fury explained
"So what was my real name?" MJ asked
"Mischa Romanoff" Fury stated
"Thank you" MJ said wiping the tears away from her eyes as she left the diner with her order as take away, Fury just sighed as he leant back
"Sir, we have a situation" an agent said
"That's his suit alright' Steel Spider said
"But where is he?" Ghost Spider said
"And why is he's suit not on him?" Sky Knight asked
"I have no idea, but his tracker isn't on" Arana said
"Hey guys" Cho said as he was using the armour he used when facing Jackal
"Cho, what are you doing here?" Ghost Spider asked
"I saw you guys here" Cho said "Is that Pete's suit?"
"Yeah it is" Arana said
"So where is Pete?" Cho asked
"That is the million dollar question" Ghost Spider said
"So where is he?" Fury roared as he burst into the command centre
"Lost track of him sir" a voice said making Fury look over to see Agent Quake looking upset
"Great, where was he last seen?" Fury asked
"An alley" Quake said
"That's not good. How is Spinneret handling it?" Fury asked
"Poorly" Coulson said as he walked in
"I can only imagine, do we know who at least took him?" Fury asked
"Yes we do" Coulson said pulling up a file on the screen
"Shit" Fury said seeing who it was
"So what should I do?" MJ asked
"About what?" Liz asked
"That my parents adopted me and my birth mother is an Avenger" MJ said
"Seriously, and why are you telling me?" Liz asked
"Because you're the only friend I have at the moment I can find, the others have been distant" MJ said
"And I think I know why" Liz said
"What do you mean?" MJ asked
"Gwen's going to be passing by in 3...2...1" Liz said before pointing at Ghost Spider gliding past
"Ghost Spider?" MJ said "Wait, Gwen is Ghost Spider?"
"That's the theory I'm working on" Liz said
"She seemed panicky" MJ said
"Yeah, I noticed that as well" Liz said frowning
"Okay, so we need to find Spiderman ASAP" Spinneret said walking into their base
"And if we can't?" Cho asked adjusting his Hulkbuster suit
"Then we have lost Spiderman, but now onto another pressing matter" Spinneret said
"And that is?" Ghost Spider asked
"Fury has a suggestion for a new member for our team" Spinneret said
"And they are?" Arana asked
"I'm not sure, I'm going to a meet and greet now. So if you find anything on Peter contact me ASAP" she said swinging out of the lab
"Oh, what hit me and where am I?" Peter asked as he woke up to find himself in some sort of abandoned steel works location. "So why am I here?" he asked looking around when something clicked
"Hello Spider-Man or should I call you Peter Parker, I am Tarantula the man who brought you to here, a location that your father Richard Parker dreaded since it was here I became what I am today. Now I knwo you have been using his technology and suit to fight crime. I also know you are considered a whiz with science and technology so I am issuing a challenge. Use anything in this building to get out and then I may let you get back to yoru father's lab where your father's gift is waiting for you since I'm pretty sure your friends found it by now, and oh to give you some incentive, I have your girlfriend hidden in the city and I'll do away with her in 30 hours, you have 25 hours to get out leaving you with five hours to find her, but I'm not so petty so I'll allow you to call your team in if you escape, but knwo they'll be on my radar as well. So Spiderman; you're time starts NOW!" Tarantula said via a recording before a time with 30:00:00 showed up
"Felicia!" Peter said panciking before racing off to find anything he could use to make a new suit and get out of there. "And of course this arsehole has my webshooters" he said grabbing a wielding jacket and threw it on.
"Okay Fury I'm here" Spinneret said
"And we're here as well" Fury said as he and MJ walked out
"Miss Watson" Spinneret said "Or should I say Miss Romanoff?"
"Watson please" MJ said
"So you want to join the Spider Force?" Spinneret said
"Spider Force?" MJ looked shocked
"Talk with him" Spinneret said "Anyway I'm the supervisor for the Spider-Force alongside Spiderman and similarly themed heroes; so why do you want to join us?"
"Because I'm the daughter of the Black Widow and like you said you guys are spider theme, not only that I want to check something out" MJ stated
"Don't worry I think you'll enjoy what I'm about to show you" Spinneret said
"Cool, now about gear" MJ said
"I've got something in mind for you already" Spinneret smirked
"Please make it tasteful" Fury said
"It already is" Spinneret said
"Okay guys, welcome our newest team member" Spinneret said as he walked into the lab with MJ who was wearing a navy blue leather catsuit with silver protection o her forearms, shins and over her breasts while her long red hair pulled back and a mask on. "Say hello to the Dark Widow"
"Dark Widow?" Ghost Spider asked
"I'm the daughter of the Black Widow" Dark Widow said "But you may know me as Mary Jane Watson" she said smiling removing her mask
"What?" Agent venom asked
MJ is the daughter of the Black Widow, how?" Ghost Spider asked
"Cool" Cho said
"So what's the situation?" Spinneret asked "We can get identities out of the way when Spider-Man is back"
"Nowhere near good" Cho said
"So what do we have on this?" Spinneret said
"Sir, we have a name now" Coulson said as they ran up to Fury and handed him a file making the colonel frown
"Deckard Kaine, I figured he was going pop up one day, but I didn't think it would be this soon" Fury said
"Sir?" Coulson asked
"Get my transport ready, I need to debrief Spinneret and her team ASAP!" Fury shouted running down the halls
"Yes...sir" Coulson said as he pulled out his phone and started to dial a number
