Chapter 31: Twist of Fate

(New York City, Manhattan, S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, present)

Spider-Man and Doctor Conners are working overtime on the antidote to the Goblin virus. They have checked various administrations of mixes of the concoctions they have used in the past to cure the past Goblin viruses. So far they have not been lucky.

"Damn it, we've tried so many possible candidates…but still none of been sufficient." Doctor Conners grunted.

(Yeah…we've been working for so long on a new antidote, but it seems Goby was more careful in designing the complexity of this virus…soo…how are you all doing?...eh?...)

"Found anything Peter?" Doctor Conners asked.

"I've tried to synthesize toxins to counteract the effects of the virus…but I can't find anything that will stabilize the DNA!" Spider-Man growled.

Spider-Man growled in irritation as his mind turned into a mess. He's tried dozens of antiviruses to counteract the effects of the Green Goblin's new virus.

"Why can't we find anything to stop the transformation?! We…Wait…Wait! That's it!" Spider-Man gasped.

(Why didn't I think of it before?!)

Spider-Man began altering a new antivenom. Doctor Conners looked at him with confusion. He walked over to see the new possible cure to the virus Spider-Man is attempting to create. After a few moments Spider-Man checks the microscope to see of his new antivirus.

"Yes! Hahaha!" Spider-Man laughed triumphantly as he jumped back then danced in place.

"You found it?!" Doctor Conners gasped.

He then looked into the microscope. He saw the infected cells mold with the serum's physical properties and completely stabilize and prevent the virus's 'odd' effects.

"You found it! Yes! Hurry! We have to ready this for injection and by air transport, and mass produce this!" Doctor Conners said.

(I did it, I did it, I did it, I did it! What, huh?)

"Wha…Oh right, right! We have to hurry!" Spider-Man replied.

After several minutes the two were able to accomplish the tasks successfully. Suddenly Spider-Man's communicator went off and then saw Director Fury's face.

"Spider-Man, the others are doing their best to hold off the Goblin waves…but they're getting overwhelmed, they need your assistance." Director Fury said.

"Sir, we've found an antidote." Spider-Man said.

"Well done, make sure you…oh no…" Director Fury replied.

(Why do I not like the sound of that?)

"The teams are losing the fight…and Goblin has just activated his weapon and is about to go off in five minutes…All units! Retreat back to the Triskelion! Now! NOW!" Director Fury ordered.

Then his face disappeared.

(NO! NOO! I-I have to get to them!)

"Doc! Prepare the air transport of the antidote to spread throughout this building! All those inside will become immune to the virus even if they step outside this building! Do it! I have to get to them!" Spider-Man ordered then rushed off.

'Them?...Or her?...' Doctor Conners thought.

(Manhattan streets, moments later)

The Academy students made a quick retreat from their fighting with the Goblins. Cloak had been wounded by an attack from a Goblin blaster which cost him his teleportation temporarily. They had been high tailing it back to the Academy. Nova, Iron Spider, and Agent Venom were covering their retreat with their long range attacks as the Goblins pursued. Cloak and Triton were carrying Cloak by his arms across their shoulders as they ran. Power Man, Rhino, and Iron Fist are at their head as Goblins attacked their group from the front to which both young men punched them away with their powers. White Tiger and the others formed a defensive circle around the injured Cloak and those helping him.

"Move it! Move it! Come on! We have to get injected with the antivirus! Hurry!" White Tiger barked.

Director Fury had contacted them about the news a moment ago which lifted their spirits after their retreat. The group then heard a hissing humming and White Tiger turned to see some Goblins fly towards them on their gliders.

'Fuck.' White Tiger hissed in her mind.

The group soon saw the Academy; it was only a dozen yards away. They rushed as fast as they could, but soon the Goblin almost began to encircle them.

"TALLYHO!" A familiar voice cried out.

The group looked up to see a familiar swinging figure.

"SPIDEY!" White Tiger gasped in surprise and relief.

"Incoming uglies!" Spider-Man shrieked as he lunged towards the Goblins on the gliders.

His feet connected with the chest of one of the Goblins and then he quickly landed on that glider. Spider-Man shot out webbing from both hands that quickly engulfed all the Goblins on gliders and then pulled them hard. Both entangled groups smashed into one another and then fell to the ground grunting and shouting in pain and shock.

"Go! I'll take care of them! Go! Now!" Spider-Man ordered.

"Move! Move!" White Tiger called out.

The group rushed to the building as Spider-Man did his best to fight off the Goblins as more and more arrived to the fight. The students made it inside the building, except White Tiger.

"I'm going to help Spidey! We'll be back in a second!" White Tiger called out then rushed to help Spider-Man.

"Tiger! No! Don't!" Dagger cried out.

A few Goblins ran at Spider-Man, but White Tiger snarled as she lunged forward. She quickly kicked her right foot into one's head and then her left into the other's head, knocking them both instantly to the ground. Spider-Man turned around when he heard scratching, punching, and growling.

"Tiger! Get back into the Academy! Now! Please!" Spider-Man cried out.

Before she could reply, they saw a green cloud form into the air and began to spread through the air while slowly precipitating like acid rain.

"RRRUUUNNN!" Spider-Man cried out.

Civilians in the streets father away from the virus began to see others cry out and twist in horrendous fashion as their skin turned green and their cries back horrific cackles. Those who hadn't turned began to run like a stampeding herd of bison, practically knocking over things and one another as they fled. White Tiger and Spider-Man began to hurry to the Academy, but then saw civilians running to it as well. They fought the Goblins to allow them to get inside, but their foes only increased in number and pushed them back. Soon they were right against the Academy entrance with civilians far from the building and the virus cloud coming closer.

(I really didn't think this out thoroughly.)

"Well, if I'm gonna go out, at least I know I went out swinging." White Tiger growled, eyes locked on the amassing Goblin horde.

"Don't talk like that." Spider-Man said.

(You're not dying Tiger; I won't let you.)

"Peter…if this is our last moment…I…I just wanna say…" White Tiger stammered nervously, blushing heavily under her mask.

"I'm sorry Tiger…please forgive me…" Spider-Man said.

"Huh? What are you…?" White Tiger started to reply, confused.

Spider-Man quickly webbed her up and threw her into the Academy, whose doors quickly sealed up. White Tiger hacked furiously at the webs then ran to the doors, but couldn't open them.

"No! Open the doors!" White Tiger cried out in panic.

"I'm sorry…I'm so sorry…" Spider-Man said on the other side.

The others in the building started to gather.

"You already took the antidote! Come on! Hurry inside! We have to prepare for our next attack!" White Tiger said.

"He didn't Ava, he rushed out before he could." Doctor Conners said.

"No…No…No! No! Spidey you idiot! Get in here! GET IN HERE! HURRY! HURRY YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" White Tiger roared as she banged her right fist on the doors.

"Be safe Tiger…I…If I don't survive this…I just…" Spider-Man started to say.

"NO! DON'T YOU DARE TALK LIKE THAT! NO! SHUT UP AND GET IN HERE!" White Tiger roared in despair and fury.

The cloud continued to approach and civilians who were closer to the building changed. The antivirus in the building spread.

"PETER! PETER NO!" White Tiger roared.

"Ava…I…I…Huk! Gah! Agh!" Spider-Man gasped, the cloud finally reaching him.

Everyone in the building watched in horror as Spider-Man began to turn.

"NOOO! NNNOOO!" White Tiger cried out.

Spider-Man cried out in pain and agony as his body twisted in horrific ways and his suit began to split, his skin revealing to turn a sickly green. His body began to grow in size and stature.

"Well isn't this nice." A familiar voice chuckled.

"Soon sensational!" Another voice laughed.

Suddenly the Green Goblin and Hobgoblin dropped down from wherever they were and landed on either side of the turning Spider-Man.

"Meet the newest member of the family…" Hobgoblin started a sentence.

"Goblin-Spidey!" The Green Goblin finished.

There was suddenly a terrible fit of cackling and the twisted new form of Spider-Man stood up. The mouth area of his torn mask is gone, now showing a grotesque smile with serrated teeth even worse than the Green Goblin's and Hobgoblin's. His hands and feet now longer had the suit on, just shredder pieces. There were tears in several places of his suit. He stood around the same height as the two head Goblins. He held out his arms to other side of him and his crooked smile spread even wider.

"I'm here bitches! Hehehehehehaha! Hahahahahahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Goblin-Spidey proclaimed, his twisted cackling voice laughed.

'No…please…no…' White Tiger whimpered in her mind, as she and everyone in the building looked in shock and horror.

To be continued…
