You guessed it; Venom will make an appearance sometime. Also, you probably noticed that Spidey's true blue clone appeared just last ep!

man this story should be catching every fan's attention because this is so good i hope you make more.
Oh and don't have those censors in the story becauseit mess up the action of the show
The reason I had those censors was because I wasn't sure if it would stay appropriate there and I'm trying to keep this at K+. Don't worry, though, I'll only use them if it's absolutely necessary. If you wish, you can use your imagination to fill those in.
Keep reviewing, everyone! It fuels my need to update!

Previously on Spider-Man:
MJ, losing her balance, fell, just as the Green Goblin dropped his Time Dilation Accelerator (TDA), which opened up a portal into limbo. Mary Jane's fall ends through the portal!
Soon, Madame Web is bringing Spider-Man through limbo. "It's been a long journey, Spider-Man, and I believe it time you were entitled to some happiness. We're going to find the real Mary Jane Watson," she declared.
"I need to find an item which no one other than MJ has touched in the past five years." Spidey thought.
In Times Square, Spider-Man is captured by a mysterious woman and brought to a high-tech complex. "You, Spider-Man," said a man whose face was obscured, "are responsible for the death of Mary Jane Watson!"
In the next scene, Spider-Man and the Black Cat are staring at a newcomer.
"I heard there was an unauthorized visitor. Professor Miles Warren sent me to check it out. I guess I got a traitor to deal with."
All that Spidey and Cat could do was gape as they stared at – another Spider-Man!
"You must be a clone!" Spidey realizes.
"What are you talking about?" screams his "twin" and then he captures Spider-Man and the Black Cat. "Well, my work here is done.
"In just a few seconds, the Spider-Jackal will come to destroy you. Have fun until then. I'll be watching from my office." Warren says. He then leaves the room, just as a robotic eight-legged jackal enters the room. It has a huge cannon on its back. It shoots with the cannon and a gigantic fireball appears, engulfing everything. Only the fireball, Spider-Man, and the Black Cat remain in the darkened room.
"I can stop the fire. On one condition. Join me and never leave my side."
"It's our only hope!" Black Cat decided. "OK, we'll join you!"
"Cat, no! You're being drugged! You need to fight it! You need to –"
"I need to kill you, Spider-Man! I see it now!"
"With Smythe's help, I was easily able to create a clone of Spider-Man. However, a few minor adjustments now make him quite vengeful. He wants to kill everyone. He has already begun on his first prey. As I predicted after learning his identity, he wanted to go after someone close to the real Spider-Man. He wanted to destroy everything he knew. Starting with the love of his life. Unfortunately, she was already dead. And her previous clone fell apart. But I merely wiped the Spider-Man clone's memory of this and created a new clone of Mary Jane Watson, along with her captor, Hydro-Man. I have also wiped his memory of his previous encounter with me."
"What about terminating his memory of me and Smythe?" Silvermane questioned. At this, Warren's heart sunk. "Warren, once your relations with this clone is terminated, he'll seek revenge on all of his enemies, undoubtedly starting with me."
"Don't worry, Silvermane," Warren insisted. "Once he's done killing Spider-Man, he will be the next one to die. You will remain untouched."
"You'd better be sure of that, Warren. I would hate to have to kill my own son-in-law."

Spider-Man
The Clone Sage, Chapter 3: Enter the Jackal
"Cat, no!" Spider-Man shouted, narrowly dodging the Black Cat's opening blow. "Trust me! You're being drugged! You don't want to do this! Warren is messing with your mind!"
"I have to kill you, Spider-Man! I see that now!" Cat replied, throwing another blow.
"No, Cat!" Spidey said. "You don't have to do this! And I know you! If you weren't drugged, you wouldn't! Don't do anything you'll regret!"
"I have to kill you, Spider-Man! I see that now!" Cat screamed.
"Cat, you have to fight it! No, stop! Fight it, not me!" Spidey declared, evading some pretty sharp claws. Although he had a funny feeling it was just another futile attempt, he had to try!
"I have to kill you, Spider-Man! I see that now!" repeated the Black Cat, as Spider-Man dodged an energetic kick.
"OK, can you say anything else?" Spider-Man pondered. Just then, his spider sense went off. Yes, I know, Cat's about to try again. I'm getting to used to the –
But suddenly, he realized it was not the Black Cat his spider sense was reacting to, but rather the Spider-Jackal, which managed to shoot a successful laser right at Spidey's back. Now half unconscious, Spider-Man knew that he was a sitting duck once again. The feeling seemed to be reoccurring.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Spider?" Cat thought. "Wh-what am I doing?"
"Cat, you're being drugged." Spidey said weakly. "But you can fight it. I did. There's still hope. You can still defeat Spider-Jackal."
"Yes," Black Cat began to realize, "you're right, Spider! And I know how!" Thinking fast, she picked up Spider-Man and dashed towards the door. She knew it was sealed off, but there was something else there – lasers. Dodging Spider-Jackal's million attacks, Cat finally made it the control panel for all the devices in the room and turned on the lasers. She knew that anyone in the small area around the controls would be untouched, but the same could not be said about the center of the room, where the Spider-Jackal was!
"No!" Warren screamed over the loudspeakers as the Spider-Jackal immediately exploded! By now, Spider-Man was coming to. He was a fast healer.
"You did it, Cat!" he shouted, turning off the lasers. "Now we just need to get out of here…." Spidey scanned the room and eventually found some air vents. "There!" he pointed.
Quickly, the two heroes crawled into the vents. Black Cat took the lead, for she knew the way around. "This way," she said, making a right.
"Quick question," Spidey suddenly thought, "are we getting out of here or looking for Warren."
"We're confronted Warren," replied the Black Cat.
"Oh great," Spider-Man stated sarcastically.
"From there, we can shut down everything in the entire complex – including security."
"Oh, great!" This time Spidey had a little bit more enthusiasm. Soon, they found Warren's office. Before entering, they looked in to see what they were up against. It didn't look that challenging. Just Warren sobbing over his desk.
"I thought he would call for back-up," Spider-Man thought out loud.
"He did," said another voice. Spider-Man and the Black Cat turned around to see Spidey's clone! He was back!
"Surprise!" shouted the clone throwing two pieces of impact webbing at the crime-fighting duo, knocking them both out of the vents (Spider-Man did not have enough room to move around in, despite his early-warning spider sense, in case you were wondering.).
Warren looked up and smiled and two colorful heroes crashed into his office. "I knew you were coming!" he shouted. "Spider-Man, destroy them!"
"Um, why would I do that?" Spidey said, clearly taken aback.
"He meant me, clone," said the identical twin.
"Oh, so now I'm a clone?" Spider-Man screamed, dodging some impact webbing. Meanwhile, the clone webbed up Black Cat so she was no threat.
"Spider-Man," Warren ordered, "distract him! I have something important to attend to in the next room. If anyone disturbs me, they die."
"That sure is a nice boss you got there," Spidey told his clone, as Warren raced from the room.
"I got him, Spider!" Cat reassured, easily breaking the web. But before anyone could make another step, an unexpected guest came in.
"Carajo! What is going on here, Miles? There are dos hombres araña!" White Tiger realized.
"Glad you noticed," said the real Spider-Man, "now you can see who really killed someone-who-looks-an-awful-lot-like-Mary-Jane!"
"Duh!" shouted the clone. "Why, are you taking credit for my kills? You'd better not be, clone! Or else you're death will slow and painful!"
White Tiger just stood there, baffled. "Miles," he said, turning, "did you know about this?"
Warren was in the middle of pulling his hair out when he dashed outside, shoving Tiger out of the way.
"Kill them all, Spider-Man!" he shouted. "Kill them all!"
"You got it, Warren!" the clone replied.
"What is going on, amigo?" Tiger asked the Black Cat.
"Simple, Tiger!" Spidey screamed down, jumping out of the way of a heap of impact webbing. "Your boss, Professor Miles Warren, is a madman who cloned me, Hydro-Man, Mary Jane Watson, and probably a few other people as well. He also seems to have a knack for messing with the clones. Who knows? He might even have an undead clone of himself who can decay things with a simple touch lying around here somewhere."
Black Cat was trying to flee the room, but the Spider-Man clone impact webbed her, knocking her over.
White Tiger was now getting his sense back and threw a punch at the clone, who easily dodged it, grabbed Tiger, spun him around a little, and tossed him across the room.
Spider-Man (the original) was hacking into Warren's computer, trying to disable the complex, as Cat previously said. He soon figured it out, but before he could do anything else, the clone webbed up the computer and pulled. The computer met his punch and crashed into the shocked Spider-Man (he was shocked because he just realized that the clone had already taken out both the Black Cat and the White Tiger).
Everyone was out. All that was left was for the clone to kill them. And he would.
But just then, a mini explosion was heard outside the office and a wind lifted the clone right off his feet and back into a wall.
A maniacal laughter suddenly filled the room as light green humanoid figure entered the room. Its face was an ugly grin with two elfish ears on either side.
"It is time, Spider-Man," said the grin, "for you to meet your doom!" After another unbearable laugh like a dingo, it closed in on the clone, ignoring the prey around it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I – I'm not Spider-Man!" shouted the clone, desperately. "I'm –" He tried to think of a worthy alibi, and finally decided upon his twin brother's. "I'm a clone! That's Spider-Man! Kill him!"
A laugh. "Of course you're not Spider-Man! You're the clone! But that doesn't mean I can't destroy you." A certain sincerity in his voice frightened the clone.
But meanwhile, the original Spider-Man was recovering from the blow he had just been hit by. He saw the grinning creature hovering above the clone. Whoa! How long have I been out? he thought, dashing towards the green creature.
"Oh, no you don't!" it declared, jumping up and clinging to the ceiling.
"Whoa!" Spidey shouted, halting his dive by attaching himself to a wall. "How'd you do that? You weren't even looking at me!"
"I don't need to look at you. I knew you were coming." But the Spidey clone ignored this and took his first chance to toss some impact webbing.
"Ha!" shouted the newcomer, jumping out of the impact webbing's way and skillfully landing on all fours. "Nice try, clone!" Suddenly he jumped at the Spider-Man clone and knocked it straight through the wall and out into the streets of New York City, a couple hundred stories up.
"No!" Spidey shouted, jumping out the new hole. He saw that not much below him, the creature and the clone were fighting over who was on top. Not much of a fight. The clone's punches didn't even seem to hurt the greenish grinning ghoul. Oh man! Spidey thought, shooting some web down, hoping to snatch the two. If anything, Warren made that clone stronger than me and yet he still can't beat this guy? What am I up against?
Unfortunately, the grinning thing must've sensed the web, for it twisted itself and the clone out of the way, still on top. Now, the creature had grabbed the clone's wrists and squeezed.
"AAAAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHH!" the clone screamed. "MY WEBSHOOTERS! THEY'RE BROKEN!"
"That's the point, fool!" the creature pointed out. "You cannot save yourself! And so, the last thing you'll ever see is the pavement after I, the Jackal, win our battle!"
"The Jackal, eh?" Spider-Man joked. "Where'd you get such a lame name like that? Internet? 'Cause that's where I got mine!"
"Help me!" the clone shouted, as Jackal jumped off him and clung onto a building, with a smirk that proved him quite interesting.
"Say please!" Spidey said, webbing onto the nearest building.
"You moron!" shouted the clone, now only 50 stories up. "You idiot! You imbecile!"
"What was that?"
The clone looked down. He was almost dead now. He mumbled. "Please."
"I can't hear you?" Spider-Man chanted.
"Save me or I'll kick your tuchas!" the clone screamed.
"Ah, for a second there, I thought you actually said "please"! Well, too bad you don't know any manners!" But, no matter how much Spider-Man wished to carry this on, his clone would die very shortly, and Spidey couldn't just sit back and watch, so he caught the clone at the last second possible with a quick strand of web. Within moments, Spider-Man was on the ground and his unconscious clone was webbed to a lamppost.
"Hear the true story of Mary Jane's clone's clone's death! Now free for a limited time!" A crowd of people who had been gaping up at the ever-falling battle now gathered 'round, curious of how there were two Spider-Men, who that green creature was, and what in the world was going on!
Meanwhile, about 80 stories up or so, the Jackal cursed under his breath. Yet, he still crawled up to the 243rd floor. He had some unfinished business with Black Cat and White Tiger.
"Hey fella's!" he greeted, jumping through the hole to see that the Cat and the Tiger were both still unconscious. "Oh, c'mon! Don't be like that! Gimme a challenge! I'm bored!" They still wouldn't budge. "Hello, are you alive?" he asked, waiting. Finally, Jackal broke the emergency box and sprayed them both with a fire extinguisher. This worked.
"Yikes!" said the Black Cat, waking up at last. "Who are you?"
"I am the Jackal! Hear the name. Fear the name. But more importantly, fear me!" And with that, he laughed his rather pain-inducing laugh and darted over to grab the unsuspecting White Tiger.
"Tiger!" Cat shouted, as she dashed towards the Jackal, who easily jumped out of the way and allowed the Black Cat to fall outside, but she quickly reached for her grappling hook and swung around to the top of the building, at 267 floors.
Down in Warren's office, Tiger had dealt a powerful kick to the Jackal, who was still concentrated on the Black Cat. Although he felt no pain from the blow, Jackal's hold did weaken, allowing him to repeat Cat's intelligent maneuver. Both of them had an element outside, where they could move around more.
But the Jackal didn't seem to give up very easily, as followed the two by wall-jumping off an opposite building.
"Bad move, heroes," he stated. "The outdoors is far more my element than it is yours! In fact, anything is my element! I have moves no matter what the environment! For example –"
Suddenly the Jackal charged at the Black Cat, digging his sharp claws into her stomach. He then sprinted over to the edge of the building, still painfully grasping Cat. He held her above the side of the building.
"Don't make another move, Tiger! Or she dies!"
"How do you plan to let go? It wouldn't be as fast as uno, dos, tres!" Tiger noted.
"Oh, did I mention my claws are retractable?" Jackal added. Tiger cursed under his tongue. This guy was serious! Whoever this guy was….
"What did you say your name was again, amigo?" he asked.
"I am the deadly Jackal!" screamed the madman. "And now, the only way you can save this girl is to help me continue my frame of Spider-Man!"
"Your frame, el chacal?" Tiger suddenly realized. "What are you implying?"
Jackal smirked his trademark smirk and, using his free hand, lifted off his mask, revealing Professor Miles Warren.
"Why are they always shooting at me?" screamed a new fourth party – Spider-Man! Suddenly, he froze. First, Spidey looked at the frozen White Tiger on one side of the rooftop, then at the unmasked Jackal on the other, then at the struggling Black Cat within Jackal's claws.
"Um, sorry," he said, "I didn't realize this roof was taken…."
Jackal suddenly laughed and released Black Cat. He then dashed over and strangled the White Tiger into unconsciousness, holding up a threatening claw at Tiger's heart.
"Your choice, Spider-Man!" shouted Warren. "You can save the Black Cat, but you won't get back up in time to save White Tiger! Or you can fight me, but Cat will become my kill! Choices! It's part of being a hero! I learned that the hard way, and now you will do the same!"
There was no time to lose. If he stopped to think this out, then both would die! He needed a plan – and fast! But what? Suddenly, Spidey realized that maybe he could save them both with just a few strands of webbing! But then he learned the devastating news that he was out of web fluid!
Suddenly, he remembered something. Black Cat had a grappling hook! She could save herself easily! Or at least, Spidey hoped she could. But Tiger was unconscious! He didn't stand a chance! And so, Spider-Man darted at the Jackal, tossing him away from Tiger!
"Let me guess," Jackal smirked, "you think Cat can save herself with that second-rate grapple? Ha! It will never work! I messed with that lousy gadget, you know. Now, it has an inactivation button – on my suit!"
Spider-Man's heart sank. If this was true, Cat would die within seconds! But it was too late now. He dealt another punch, sending Warren straight off the edge of a 267 story building!
That freak can save himself! Spidey thought, jumping off the edge where Black Cat had fallen. But there's a still a small chance Cat didn't meet the street yet!
He was correct! The Black Cat was only about 10 stories up now, however, and didn't seem possible to save her in time, especially without any webbing! But Spidey was determined to try! He made his stance as light as possible and dove down!
This is gonna be hard! Spidey thought. Even if I do catch the Black Cat, who's to say we won't both still go KA-SPLAT?
But, despite his doubts, Spider-Man managed to catch the Black Cat and then swung around a tree branch! Trees! What luck! I didn't we were anywhere near Central Park!
But it was Central Park. Of course, there're more than just trees and lakes here! It's also a favorite for Captain Jean DeWolfe of New York's finest!
"Freeze!" she shouted and turned to her radio. "Lt. Lee? This is DeWolfe. I need back-up at Central Park immediately! I repeat: I need back-up at Central Park!"
"Um, in case you didn't notice, I'm a good guy," Spidey explained, just as a few dozen police cars pulled up. "Ah, what the heck!" he shouted, grabbing the Black Cat and jumping back to the building. After climbing to the top, he found that White Tiger was OK.
"Señor Warren, el Chacal, did not save himself, amigos," explained Tiger. "He never came back up. Looking down, I can even see his body. So yes, I am OK. Gracias, el hombre araña, for defeated as el Chacal and saving my life."
But before he could say another word, Spider-Man had jumped to another building and another and another. He was gone.
Suddenly, Black Cat came to. "What happened?" she asked.
"I believe, al gato negro, that el hombre araña feels guilt. He did, after all, play a part in the death of a man, whether intentionally or not. But alas, I do not feel he is guilty, for in doing so, he saved both our lives. El hombre araña is innocent, after all."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whew! Finally! I thought that story was only gonna be two eps! But, of course, I also didn't think I'd get in the Jackal so quickly. Anyway, next ep is battle royal! Featuring the Kingpin, Silvermane, and the Insidious Six! Plus, will Spider-Man actually find an item which no one but MJ has touched in the past five years? Be here next time to find out!
