Chapter 4

Shocking Conclusion

Okay, guys. You know the drill. On to the reviews.

Gamelover41592: Well, for a while, the circle will remain small as to who knows.

Guest: Arnold and by extension Helga, will be important.

aNobodyFangirl: Glad you're enjoying it thus far.

EggOtaku: Don't worry. They will end up together.

Now Marvelites... Let's kick it up!

On the Basketball court in Brooklyn College, the recently made co gender Basketball team. Doing the best on the court was Lynn Loud jr. While she was great at many sports, Lynn excelled the most she found, at Basketball. A fact that was abundantly clear on the court as she easily made her way through her teammates in practice for her next game. After she spun through the rest of the team and pulled off a dunk, the team heard a whistle blow as the ran to the coach.

"Alright, team. Here's the starting lineup for Sunday's game. Loud, Brown, Robertson, Allen, and David." The coach said as one of the players eyes widened at not being put on the start. "Everyone, rest up tomorrow and get ready. See you Sunday night." The coach said as most of the team left as the one player approached him.

"Coach!" The player called.

"What is it Connors?" The coach asked as he signaled for the player to help him clean up the equipment.

"I've started at every game all season. Why not now?" The player asked.

"I'm sorry, Billy. But you were kind of sluggish tonight. Plus you're favoring your left leg. Your knee?" The coach asked as Billy reluctantly sighed.

"Yeah." He said as the coach put a hand on his shoulder.

"Then stay off it for a few weeks. Last thing you need is to blow it out.

"But coach..." Billy tried to ague before being cut off.

"No buts. You're on the bench until that knee has no risk to it." The coach said, getting a reluctant nod from Billy. "Now, go home and get some rest." He said as Billy walked out of the gym and headed for his campus apartment.

(At the Loud House)

"And that's my story." Lincoln said as he finished summing up what had happened up to that point. "Question is, what are you going to do with all that?" He asked as Lisa took off her glasses and rubbed her eyes while sighing.

"Just tell me this." Lisa said before putting her glasses back on. "What is your reasoning behind what you are doing?" She asked.

"Remember that little girl from the story?" Lincoln asked, getting a nod from Lisa. "Well, she's only six and when I saved her I couldn't help thinking 'What if I hadn't been out there?' and 'What if something like that could have happened with Lily?'." He explained.

"So that's it. You feel like you are a variable to prevent negative occurrences." Lisa summarized.

"Basically." Lincoln confirmed. "So, are you going to tell everyone?" He asked.

"Well, that comes down to the reactions the rest of the family will have." Lisa said before elaborating on what she thought they would do. "The parental units, Lucy, and Luan would likely have little thought to it, Leni, Lola and Lilly would be quite concerned when you went out, Lana and Lynn would try to be out there with you, Lori would try to stop you, and Luna would probably write you a theme song." That last one, though true, Lincoln couldn't help but chuckle at. "Alright. I won't tell them." Lisa said to Lincoln's surprise.

"This is legit right? This isn't like when Ronnie Anne was picking on me as a kid?" Lincoln asked with appropriate skepticism.

"It would cause undue chaos and attempts to stop you and if they did, you would resent me and innocents would be hurt. More good will come from this being between us for the time being." Lisa said, gaining a hug from her big brother.

"Thanks Lis." He whispered before his phone went off. It was the alarm system that he had patched in to all the emergency response scanners in the city showing that a bank just on the east edge of Manhattan was being robbed. "Shocker." He said with gritted teeth as he pulled his other web shooter, jacket, gloves, and mask out of his back pack.

"Lincoln." Lisa signaled as she threw him an ear bud. "I should be able hack in to traffic cameras. Maybe give you some advice if I can." She said as Lincoln nodded before putting on his mask and jumping out the window. As Lincoln left, Lisa began attempting to hack in to the traffic cameras while bringing up a file in the lower corner of her computer labeled "RR-UM".

(With Shocker)

The yellow clad villain was busy launching hapless guards in the bank, all the while wondering why the higher ups were having him do this. Still, with the ease provided with the suit, it wasn't as if he could complain as he leisurely strode in to the bank vault and stuffed two duffle bags full of money.

As Shocker walked out of the bank, he suddenly felt the duffle bags be yanked from his arms.

"Sorry. But it looks like you've exceeded your withdrawal limit." Spiderman said a he threw the bags to the bank wall and webbing them to it.

"Didn't I drop a building you?" Shocker asked as he attempted to blast the hero only for him to jump over the blast which then destroyed the lamp post he was on.

"So that was on purpose." Spiderman quipped as he tried slam the fallen light fixture in to Shocker only for him to blast it out of the air. 'Okay. After last time, I know that I need to keep him at a distance.' He thought as he used his webs to throw some more rubble at shocker with similar results as the light fixture. "And here I thought you were just being clumsy." He said as he picked up the pole and swung hard and while Shocker was able to destroy it as well, it still made impact and caused him to fly in to the wall.

Shocker rolled over from the hit. However he had to quickly move his right hand away as it got to close to his left. He then once again resumed his attack on the masked hero.

"Now, that's interesting." Lisa said on her end before dialing Lincoln's phone. "Don't talk. I believe I've found Shocker's proverbial Achilles heel. Tap once if you understand." She said as Spiderman tapped the pocket where his phone was. "He seems to be trying abnormally hard to keep his hands apart. Try getting them together." She said, getting another tap.

Spiderman proceeded preform various flips and rolls, dodging blasts from Shocker until he finally managed to get close enough to flip over him and use his webs to grab his hands and connect them behind his back.

As Shocker's gloves connected, Spiderman heard a high pitched noise before a small explosion launched Shocker forward several feet and knocking him out.

With the fight over, Spiderman could final catch his breath as he walked up to Shocker, grabbing him by the collar and throwing to a wall before webbing him up.

"I'm on my way home." Spiderman quietly said as he began swinging, the sun setting on his victory, never once suspecting what was going on across the street from the back of the bank as three masked men walked out of a chemical production lab. Each one caring a decent sized canister.

"We better get these back to Tombstone." The leader of the group said.

"What about Schultz?" Another member of the group asked.

"What about him?" The leader fired back as he pulled out a burner and dilled Tombstone. "Hey, boss. You can tell the doc that we've got what he needs." He said before he and his men left the area.

A few minutes after the fight, Spiderman arrived back at the Loud House and took off his mask after climbing in Lisa's window.

"I must admit, you were quite impressive out there." Lisa said, not turning away from her computer.

"Couldn't have done it without you. Well, I could have. But it probably would have taken an extra five minutes." Lincoln joked. Even Lisa couldn't hold back a smile there. "So, what are you working on?" He asked.

"A leather jacket and a mask can only get you so far and knowing your secret I feel it is my responsibility to ensure you have the best possible equipment to keep you safe." Lisa said before signaling Lincoln to look at computer monitor. "I assume you are aware of dr. Reed Richards." She said, gaining a nod from her brother at the mention of 'Mr. Fantastic'. "The suits that he and his team wear are made of a highly durable substance composed of 'Unstable Molecules'. I've been wanting to try the synthesis of them myself. As for a design that fits with your motif. I quite like page twenty two in your note book." She said as she held up said notebook.

"Yeah. This one is my favorite too." Lincoln said before they heard their dad call all the kids in the house down for dinner. "Come on. Let's go get some food." Lincoln said as he threw his gloves, web shooters, jacket, mask, and notebook on Lisa's bed, the only part of the illustration on notebook being a red mask with web patterns and white eyes.

(At the Brooklyn College campus dorms)

"I can't believe this!" Billy said while bouncing a Basketball against a wall. After several bounces he stopped and grabbed a picture of him and his father, dr. Curt Connors.

While Billy, in his own rite was on the edge of being as brilliant as his father. It was just that his passion for Basketball was just that. His passion. He loved Basketball more than anything and now he would be unable to play for at least a month.

Billy hands began to twitch before he went to his desk and grabbed opened a drawer where an injector and a vile of green liquid sat.

'Well, here's hoping that Dad made this without any really bad side effects. Also that Mom never figures out that I copied the formula.' He thought before he nervously placed injector to his leg before taking a deep breath and stuck the needle in his leg, allowing the formula to poor in to his leg.

Billy let a few moments pass before he began to put pressure on his knee to see that it was perfectly fine.

"Alright!" Billy cheered, while enjoying his leg being back to a hundred percent. "I'm still going to have to sit tomorrow's game out. Otherwise coach might suspect something. But next game, I'll be back on the court." He said proudly before he decided to go to bed.

However as the young Basketball player slept, he was unable to see the green scales growing on his knee.

Okay, this chapter was way shorter than normal. But that's mostly because it was just set up for next time. Speaking of which, I think you know exactly which Spiderman enemy show up next time. Now before I go, I plan to do a bit of setup for another of the superheroes in this. Would you rather I continue Ronnie Anne's rise or Should Arnold get some spotlight in the subplot? Please tell me what you want in the reviews and until next time and as always... Keep on keeping on.
