Venom felt a small amount of sadness as the memory ended. He had loved parker he had known that since that night. Since the first time he had touched parker's skin he had known, that he loved him. But parker didn't see that. Curling up in front of the wall Venom closed his eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep. Hoping that he would dream about parker the person he loved.
CHAPTER 4
The rain thundered all around him but peter ignored it. His whole attention focused on the man in front of him who was smiling at him. The man was tall maybe 6 feet. He had dark black hair and slivery eyes. Slowly Peter put his hand behind his head and smiled awkwardly. "Soooooooo what are the odd you won't tell anyone about this?" the man shrugged, "pretty good I'd say. You should come out of the rain your getting wet." Peter shrugged but still stepped down from the edge of the roof. The man opened the roof top door and stepped inside. After digging in a duffle bag for a moment he produced a towel which he tossed to peter. Who promptly began to dry himself off. Still running the towel through his hair Peter spoke.
"Were you waiting here for me?" the man smiled and shrugged. "Maybe, But what will really blow your mind is what I'm going to tell you. You see while I didn't know that you were coming, I did know that your wife was cheating on you. And I knew it was wolverine she would be with. I also knew you would need a towel when and if you came here." Still smiling the man motioned to Peter to begin to follow him as the man descended the stairway in front of them. As they turned to off into a hallway, the man spoke again. "My name is James. That's all you need to know right now Peter. But you should know that I am a member of an old race known simply as the rachni. We rachni have lived in peace with spiders for thousands of years. But you my boy have thrown the world into chaos."
James paused to open the door to his apartment. As the door opened Peter gasped. The apartment had to be the fanciest place he had ever been in. rich blue carpet spanned the floor of the home. Moving into the apartment, the James gestured to Peter who moved into the room his eyes never stop moving around the room. Artwork, mostly of spiders decorated the walls and on the far wall a large mural of a spider decorated the entire span of the wall. Hall a dozen smaller jewel encrusted spiders hung around the larger spider. The man smiled. "don't worry Peter. The mural is only a symbol. A symbol of the great weaver. The weaver of fate, time, power, and all things that happen for a reason. She alone decided the fate of everything. Nothing is above her power."
James smiled at Peter's amazement, of the mural. "This home, and everything thing in it do not belong to me but to the rachni as a group. That included you. Money will never be a problem again. Neither will shelter or food. All of this is yours." Peter's head snapped towards James at this. "Whaaa?" James smiled and shrugged. "well let me rephrase that. Most of this is yours. The bed in the room at the end of the hallway is mine, and only under pain of death are you allowed in it. Or unless you're invited." Peter's face went bright red but James continued onward. "No offense kids but you're not my type. I like people who……… you have gotten past puberty." Peter starred at James. "Hey! I'm 20! And I had a wife." James rolled his eyes. "Yeah and how did that work out?"
Peter's mind froze as the memory of what had happened hit him full force. Mary Jane……. his wife….. Had been cheating on him. But as if he knew what Peter was thinking James spoke. "Peter. It's been a long day. Why don't you rest? I have a room made up for you already." And with a sweeping gesture James spirited himself and Peter down a hallway finally stopping in front of a plain white door. Deafly Peter reached out and opened the door. The room that greeted him flung the idea of Mary Jane to the back of his mind. The room was huge, maybe 3 times the room he had had when he was kid.
The room's walls were lined with dozens of clippings from newspapers, clippings of Spiderman's heroic work. The bed was pushed up so the moon light splayed over the sheets. Hanging on a small hook in the wall was a Spiderman costume. Moving towards, it Peter looked to James as he ran his hands over the material. "This material feels strange, like water, but it's solid." James smiled and nodded. "Yes. This material is unlike any other in the world. My specialty has always been weaving and creating materials. The material that costume is made out of the stronger than steel, and yet it breaths like Egyptian cotton. Not only that but it will increase your strength and reaction times. Not only that but it will repair itself, so no more having to worry about what is showing when you fight. But now is not the time young spider. Go to bed. You must rest and heal, I'll make you a tonic to help you sleep but you MUST rest."
And with that James vanished back down the hallway in the direction of what Peter could only guess as was the kitchen. Looking around the room Peter spotted a dresser and moving over to it found it to be stocked full of clothes. All of which seemed to be his size. After a few minutes of digging around Peter found pajamas in the bottom drawer. And shortly after that he found himself in new pajamas. As he pulled back the sheets of his new bed a knock at the door caused him to turn around. James stood in the door way. A small glass clutched in his hand. Handing the glass to Peter James smiled at him and spoke. "Relax parker. Things will be better, in the morning. Just go to sleep and tomorrow I will show you just how special that new costume of, you're." Smiling James turned and left, Peter alone closing the door behind him. With a saddened resignation Peter downed the glass and then climbed into his new bed. A short time later his eyes, closed and he fell asleep.
