CHAPTER FOUR

A HERO… REBORN!

Peter was going through what was maybe the most painful experience he had ever physically been through, his heart was still pounding, his ears rang with a fury that was still excruciating even as it began to lower, looking at his hands through three variant colors, white, red and black, he couldn't see anything, he was bleeding, no…Burning!

SCREAMING!

Then finally, something actually happened, his body began to re-emerge from that mess of Red, Black and White, then finally, his hand hit the ground and then, a memory re-emerged, a memory, a memory not of Uncle Ben, not of Gwen, not of May, not of Mary Jane and her new boyfriend Paul, honestly, any memory of those two burned to the core, somehow even more than this Symbiote was right now and then, finally, Peter's memory comes forth.

Zoe

Why was he seeing her?

His mind then finally cleared, because he had seen something that had calmed him down

Inside all that pain that was his entire life, all the burns, scars and wounds that would never heal, what he saw in front of him, was an actual Light in literally so much Darkness.

And then, all the pain stopped, all of it was no more, and when he opened his eyes, he was in downtown Manhattan, hanging upside down in a new suit and he loved the sheer look of it.

Peter thought that it would be like the first time he had bonded with a Symbiote, that he would basically be a sleek black suit Spider-Man with a White Crocked Spider-Symbol on his chest that wrapped around his torso all the way to his chest, but no, this suit was completely new.

Peter's new suit consisted mainly of Black Cargo Pants, a Black Long Sleeve T-Shirt that showed off his muscles, and a Black mask and hood over his head. He had on a Red Armored Vest Plate, with Red Armored Round Shoulder Pads, Red Elbow Guards and Arm Guards, on the Red Top armor, there was a white streak of anti-venom that went up the Carnage, that streak was on his arm brace, then another on the lower part of his chest guard. The white followed up on eyes of the mask, as well as a White Combat Belt, with multiple poaches, white gloves and White Armored Combat Boots.

He essentially looked like a slimmer version of Agent Venom and Agent Anti-Venom.

He admired himself in the mirror, he looked fierce, but right now, he needed to get down from there, Tony was still a problem and he wouldn't take kindly to Peter having a new set of Symbiote Powers, so he chose to drop down from that building. Dropping down to a smaller one, he got a feel for his surroundings, and where he was, he was somehow in Upstate New York.

That was…whoa!

He was already outside, but he couldn't feel the cold, at all, this thing was really cool to have,

'Hello, is anybody in here?' he thought

His answer was Silence, complete silence

He froze still for a second "Well that was jarring" he gave as his only response to this.

Peter leapt off a roof with the same speed and agility he would normally have with his Spider Powers, a few Months in a bed and a few more weeks of Tony Stark messing with his life like one of his rogues would, this was something he had missed. Raising his arm up towards the building, he fires a Web Line, and smiles at the organic webbing, swinging upwards and leaps off it, falling down to the ground. He shoots another web with absolute glee and then finally he stops, jumping off the web to catch himself on a building.

"Okay…" Peter sits down, watching the city with a smile "…This is something else"

Peter looks at his hand, the Black, White and Red armor was amazing, but then it hits him, but he ignores the feeling he was having inside, jumping off the ledge and doing multiple flips, testing out all of his abilities if they had returned, he slowly approaches the ground and then catches himself on a Street Light, launching himself once more into the sky.

Landing on an apartment building, crawling up the wall, and Yes! he had the ability to Wall Crawl all once again, he first starts this slowly, getting the feel for it once again and yes, his wall crawling ability was perfectly intact.

He then starts to run up the wall, getting quicker and then finally, he jumps off the building, landing on the Roof Exit and then jumping off it, he lands on a building, his weight of landing caused the rooftop to crack, rolling.

He continues to parkour his way through clothing lines, he jumps off the ground, landing one leg on a roof exit and leaping through another set of lines, landing and launching off his hands, running on the walls, he backflips off the building, shooting two more webs from the backs of his fists, pulling himself back and finally, he slingshots himself to the very top, landing on the ledge of the top.

After a while of simply joyriding throughout the city, Peter finally stops to rest, but he doesn't need to rest, he doesn't even feel tired,

"This is amazing!" he cheered out

"IT IS ISN'T IT" a female voice said from behind him.

Peter turned around to see it was his dear friend Liz Allen or as she would like to be called, MISERY. Her monstrous form was adamant with the two Symbiotes she hybridized, them being Carnage and Anti-Venom. His smile, even with the Symbiote masking his face, was very much seen by his childhood friend, he ran up and hugged her outright and hard

"Wow! ~" she groaned as he crushed her "Take it easy Pete, you may be cute, but I'm seeing a man"

Peter let go of her, looking up at the gigantic woman-oid figure, she had a damn good figure for a Symbiote monster lady, and she was a redhead, that would always get him down and under. Misery looked down at the man she had called a true friend for many years, she wondered about something, something she wouldn't be very keen to test out, something she knew she could do, but not if he could do.

Peter however was still checking himself out, this Symbiote was amazing, he felt that familiar feeling he had with Venom so many times over the years, but this was different, he couldn't put his hand on it, but he knew it in his bones, in his very DNA, that this would be very different.

"Okay Liz, I'll be seeing you around I guess" he said aiming his hand upwards. Firing a web line, leaving Misery there to watch him swing off, and she can't keep that nagging feeling in her head, that she may have not told him everything about that new Symbiote of his. But she would leave it for later, or maybe, she would let him find out how that thing truly works and the effect its having on his body.

Shooting her own Web Line, Misery swings off.

IN PETER PARKER'S APARTMENT

Peter rocketed into his apartment, he had kinda destroyed the wall earlier when he was trying to get the Symbiote off, this was a mess and worse, it was a mess that was going to attract Tony back here, something he definitely didn't need anytime soon or ever again.

He checks himself in the suit and then, wills it and the Symbiote really listened to him, it was off him, he had formed it into a pair of White Sneakers, Black Sweatpants and A Red Hoodie. He started getting his place fixed, luckily, it was the wall, and not something like the entire fire escape, that was lucky for once.

He started by putting a tarp over the wall and went to sleep. This was a morning problem. He climbed up to his bed and finally was able to catch some sleep for the night.

….

Peter awoke in Central Park, and…it was day time? No, not day time, the skies weren't blue or yellow, they were white. And looking beyond Central Park, there was nothing else out there, he was alone here. Crouching down, Peter remembered the first thing about being in an unsure place, stay where you are, unless you are given a reason to move. A shadow loamed over him, it was a menacing one to say the least, even as he hadn't seen it. It towered over him, having a large bulk, he faced upwards and, there was nothing there, no loaming threat, no monster, nothing.

He was once again, the only thing there and with no idea where he was, because the once forest landscape of Central Park was now gone, replaced by the concrete jungle that it Manhattan. The fogs came soon after, thickened over the buildings, and covering everything in sight. The once sky piercing buildings were gone, the streets in front of him were no longer visible and the people, although audible, were unreachable, try and try as he may run and run as fast as he can.

The people are out of his reach, no matter how hard he fights to reach them, he cannot. No matter how much he fights, so many are slaughtered, by what lurks in those fogs, by the unknown, by the unseen.

He watches around, turning from side to side only to watch more of these creatures devour the people, he ran to try and save who he could, but there was nothing, they were still unreachable to him, no matter how much he fought past the thickening fogs, he would be incapable of reaching them.

Until finally, he dropped to his knees, they were dead. All of these people, they were dead, and it was his fault, it always was his fault, if only he were stronger, if only he weren't such a failure, no matter what he did, people died, no matter how hard he fought to protect and save everyone, people would always die.

Why?

What was he given this power for if people were always just going to die anyway?

Wasn't that his purpose, to be a protector?

But all he was, was a Failure.

His Uncle Died

His first love, Dead

Her father, Dead

His Aunt, Dead as well

He stayed there on the ground, his mind jumping at every failure he had ever had. He had Failed as a Father, failed as a Lover, failed as a Hero, failed as a Scientist, failed as a Businessman, everything he put his mind too, he failed, that was all he would ever be, a Disappointment.

Then, on his knees, tears running down his face, he was once again at the beginning of his life, frail, weak and incredibly Pathetic. A pair of feet approached his downed form, the one that had come before him earlier, towering over him but this time with a less impressive Bulk, this one, was slimmer, still Bulked yes, but smaller than it was before.

Peter awoke in a cold teared sweat, his hand was outward as a set of Symbiote Tendrils shot out of his hand and crashed into a wall, cracking it, he was trying to catch a breath, his breath was heavy, his eyes were still swollen from his dream, and then, he calmed down. Everything calmed down, his hearing, his heartrate, his racking nerves, everything had returned to a normal state.

"Man," Peter said as he looked down at his hand, the fear no longer showing "What am I doing?" he asks himself, the bad memories of Symbiote Bonding flooding back into his mind.

Peter got up from bed, the first thing he had done was look around his apartment, everything was still in the ordinary, and that kind hurt in him, because all of his Spider Gear had been taken away. Getting up, and leaving his home in SoHo.

The streets were as busy as usual with honking cars all over the crowded streets of Manhattan. The Ford Explorers of the NYPD were some of the sounds he picked up first leaving the apartment, the next was the smug contaminating the air, but one smell cut through to him,

Hotdogs.

He took a quick step to the right aiming for the hotdog stand that was surrounded by people, and was 2 city blocks away. He looked down at his Phone, it was nothing expensive, but it at least worked for him, he bought one hotdog and walked away, going to work.

'(Sighs) Web Swinging would be really nice right about now'

But no.

Finally arriving at the Horizon Labs Building, Peter walked into the building, his head already lowered, expecting the whispers and rumors that people spread about him in there. The walks to his Lab were always the longest, because having to always hear what these people had to say about him when Otto was in control of his body would always make be there to remind him of 'Superior'

He pressed his hand against the scanner and the Titanium Sliding doors opened to reveal the hottest Scientist he had ever seen. Zoe Zander and Oh Shit.

Zoe came to work dressed in a Purple G.O.T Memorabilia Crop Top, Blue Denim Shorts, Black Rugged Leggings and Purple Converse. Zoe was bent down half way on her desk, and on entering, he could already make out her heart shaped ass through her shorts, but that wasn't all, her crop top let him see her slim midriff, that led to her Supple C-Cup Breasts, her pale white skin and magenta eyes that were side eyeing him…

…Wait a second

Zoe smirked at this, she could tell he was ogling at her, and by the fact he had stopped at the closed door for 2whole minutes just staring, it was safe to say he liked what he saw and honestly, could she blame him,

'He hasn't stopped staring at me yet?' she thought 'Did I underdress, oh god he must think I'm a slut for this, I mean Game of Thrones, come on Zoe you can do better'

[HE DOESN'T SEEM TO MIND]

Life returned to his eyes, and the realization finally hit him, he finally walked to his desk opposite hers as she returned to what she was doing, Peter dropped his notebook on his desk, opening the book and asking for a new lease

"Stark took a lot from me, but at least I'm getting my groove back" he whispered to himself.

The betrayal from a friend can often feel like a part of you has been damaged, a feeling of loss, like someone had taken something from you and crushed it in their hands with no remorse. He continued with his work, but on the outside.

The other workers there were all skeptical about Peter's return to the office, lab moral had dropped significantly ever since he returned, the man was attacked in his own home

(Scientist 1) "Hey did you hear what happened to Peter last night?"

(Civilian 1) "No, what happened?"

"He was apparently attacked again, man this kind of stuff never happened with Spider-Man around, rest be his soul"

(Scientist 2) "Hey you heard what Iron-Man said, he died on a mission with the Avengers"

Unknown to this group, Peter's new Symbiotic Senses picked up on this, he could hear what they were saying and it infuriated him how Tony had just claimed him dead like that. And Miles, a friend he had trusted his life too on multiple occasions, someone who he considered his younger brother and was proud to share the Spider-Man mantle with and what did he do, sided with Tony. Well if the kid wanted it all for himself, it was all his now.

IN BROOKLYN

Miles was swinging through Brooklyn in the Iron-Spider Armor Tony had created for him.

The Young Dark Skin American gleefully yelled "Man, this suit is awesome Tony!" while he swung through his section of the city, he spotted a Jewelry store being robbed, and swung down to help out, two men, one lean and the other bulky ran out with three duffle bags of money, one for the smaller man and the other two for the big guy.

They threw the bags into their getaway car

"Man this was one easy haul!" the bigger man exclaimed

"Yeah, with all the crimes rising in Manhattan since Spider-Man died, Brooklyn's gotten a lot less attention" the leaner one added

The Smaller Thief turned the car keys and got to driving, all while Spider-Man chased after them from behind, the police gave chase to the thieves, with Spider-Man following alongside them,

"Oh no it's Spider-Man, jeez, shouldn't he be mourning his mentor or something?"

"Don't know bro, but someone's gonna be mourning that kid in a minute" the bigger man said as he raised up a rocket gun and started shooting. Miles dodged the gunfire, shooting a Venom Bolt at the Car Engine, the blast causes the engine to stall, the car loses control, crashing into a fire hydrant.

Spider-Man descends from his web, landing on the ground to rush to the car's passengers and rip out the door, dragging out both of them out of there, Miles was worried that the impact might've over done it, but then again, he had done this before.

The Police approached Miles as he dragged the men out, taking both of them into cuffs and then away, Miles was left to talk to the squad captain

"Hello Spider-Man"

"What's up Officer?"

"I just wanted to say thanks for the help" the officer praised "Oh and…" he paused "Sorry about the Other Spider-Man Kid, he, he saved my life a couple times through the years, saved my brother too, it's a shame the world had to lose someone as good as him"

Miles was stunned "Yeah, yeah it is" before swinging away.

Miles swung into the air at break neck speeds, except Peter wasn't gone, he had had a brief snap after years of abuse, and pain, and instead of being allowed to talk through his issues, Tony Stark, his new 'mentor' decided it was better to take away his powers, he had to calm down, his thoughts were all over the place right now.

BEEP

BEEP

The brain monitor in his suit started to go off irregularly 'Oh Crap'

INCOMING CALL

"Miles, what's going on? The brain scanner detected you feeling severely agitated"

'Oh sorry, it's just..." Miles paused for a sec 'Man should I even talk about this, no he might get suspicious' a cop asked how I was feeling, you know, about Peter"

"Forget about him Miles, you're Spider-Man now, and he's just a random Scientist in a lower branch of Alchemax" Tony stated with Arrogance

'The nerve of this guy' Miles thought, his face crunched as his glare thickened

"Well, have fun being Spider-Man kid, you deserve it being better than Peter was after all"

Tony cut the call, Peter was a real hero, unlike the man who hides behind a metal suit, always making them stronger to hide his own fear of real battles.

"Do we go after him?" an unknown young male voice asked

"No, Track gave us our mission and despite what I may want to do, we need to follow her lead on this" an unknown female voice said

Both figures were hidden by shadow, one male and another female, their blank lenses of their eyes pierced through the darkness of the shade, one of them dropped down from their vantage point, and disappeared into the city.

STARK TOWER

Tony was in his laboratory with the smartest man in the world, Reed Richards, the two had recently discovered of a new strange Ore, they had no idea where it had come from, it wasn't on any periodic table they knew, the Mutants hadn't anything on it as well. It was truly a rare find but both geniuses were hard at work on figuring out what this thing was.

They had multiple machines analyzing every part of it and running it through every possible spectrum but nothing was happening to it. The ore itself didn't look to be anything special, it was Trapezoid in shape, glowing orange and humming for the sounds of energy, orange mist emitted from the body of the rock

"Anything Reed?"

"No Stark, whatever this Ore is, it doesn't exist, even the scanners are having difficulty determining what it is"

Doctor Strange was amongst the group, using whatever identification spells he could to try and ascertain the origins of this mysterious substance.

Strange groaned as he the intensity of mystical energy he had placed into his spell was starting to take his toll on him and yet, Nothing as well. Mysticism and Science were both failing to identify what this ore was, and where it came from, but they were determined to find out by any means necessary, however long it takes, they will find out.

Black Panther was there as well, trying to find out what this was, he brought with a bit of Wakandan Science in order to find out the origins of this strange Material.

From the X-Men, they had sent one of their best minds to determine what this thing was, Mister Sinister, he and Stark had a similar idea in using technology to scan the power signature, and they group of some of the smartest minds in tis Universe, were all slump on what this thing before them was.

MANHATTAN

The door opened slowly, closing immediately after, Peter stepped into his home, having hauled a bag full of bricks and a bag of Cement up 3floors, he looked at his broken down door, and he continued to repair it,

'(Sighs) You have the money to fix this, but no, you made this mess, you clean it up'

Taking down to one knee, Peter began to work on his broken wall, as he prepared himself, his hand started to move, faster and faster and faster, he couldn't believe this, the speed, the precision in this, it felt amazing. From my own point of view my hands were moving almost as a blur to even me, going up and up, until finally, he was finished.

Amazing!

He looked at his hands, a smirk came across his face along with a questioning hum from his lips. On top the roof, Peter stood in his workout clothes, a Hoodie, and Sweatpants, warming up, he ran forward closer to the ledge, he leapt from his apartment to the one next over.

Across the Street!

He lands and barrel rolls, leaving a slight dent in the ceiling, finally catching himself.

"Awesome" he declared to himself

Looking down though, that crack in the wall was a bit too much for him to handle, he squinted 'Okay, Practice is necessary'

Peter runs towards the next ledge, leaping off it or he was about to, BUZZ… before his phone went off and he slipped and fell off the building, he falls to the ground, landing on the hard ground.

BUZZ

The Vibrations from his phone cause him to shake. His body starts to awaken. groaning in pain as people stare at him, "Ow" he groans out, his eyes slowly opening and vision clearing, there were people around him and they were muttering something, through his struggle and pained speech

"W-What?" he managed to groan out. Looking up at the people taking pictures of him "What?" he noticed that they were taking pictures of him 'Oh No" he quickly got up and leapt into the air, running up a wall, the press was not something Peter did not need at the moment, after all, everyone thinks he's dead and to them, he might as well be.

Peter jumped from one building and landed three buildings over. Peter cursed aloud as he had been seen, people took pictures, posted them online and now, now Tony was going to come looking for him, that, he did not want.

BUZZ

Oh right. Peter reached into himself, not having forgotten how the Symbiote matter worked, Peter reached into himself, pulling out the phone, he looks at the caller, it was…Oh…okay this wasn't supposed to be a surprise, but it was.

Answering the phone "Liz?"

"Hey Pete" Liz Allen called from the other side "Peter, I need you to stop by the lab, as in right now"

"Why?"

"Why? Peter I paid a lot of money to have that Symbiote stolen from me for me, so when I tell you to come by so we can run tests on it and you, You Fucking Show!" she screamed through the phone

His head was away from the phone. Protecting his hearing "Woah! Okay I'll be there in 5…and please don't scream if I'm late"

"Don't worry Pete, I know my friend is always late to everything" Liz says her snarky remark. He opens his mouth to retort but only to find that she had hung up the call. And left him there on the roof feeling a bit, dejected.

THWIP

Web Swinging had never felt so fast, not with Venom at least, this new Symbiote, the way it was silent in his head

'I can almost feel it, creeping at the back of my mind, just waiting for something, but what?' Peter questioned a she continued to web swing 'And why does it feel like a monster… waiting to be unleashed' the lingering presence of the true Symbiote fell like a beast breathing down my neck

As Peter swung over the city of New York, he saw what the streets of Manhattan had become, or what it was becoming, when people heard that Spider-Man was dead, this was a motivation to a lot of criminals that it was their time to shine. Daredevil, Echo, Elektra and Shang Chi had all gotten to fighting crime more efficiently and much more often with the rising crime rate. There was even reports of a new Spider Man running around

Tony wasn't going to like that.

The screams of what sounded like two women were heard down in the streets, Peter not being one to ignore something like this, even if he was currently keeping a low profile, ignoring a person in need was not in his nature. Stopping dead in his tracks, he redirects himself towards the cause of said scream. And he was correct, it was indeed a woman whom was about to be mugged, in front of them were a man and woman, the man covered his girlfriend but was approached by the woman bearing a mad grin and a knife, but out of nowhere

Whoosh…

She turned around to see her man was gone, "W-Wha…?" before she could even get her words out

CRASH!

He was dropped down on the busted car he was sitting on. The woman looked upwards to see what had done this. Her eyes widened in horror at the sight she saw, attached to the wall like something out of Nightmares, a humanoid figure, but that THING…couldn't be human, covered in darkness with white crazed eyes similar to Spider-Man's but that wasn't the worst of it. The worst of it was the mess of bloody red, pure white and moving darkness tendrils moving out of its body, the tendrils rushed at her, holding her down to the ground and then lifting her up by all four of her limbs, she cried out and begged this monster

"PLEASE! NO!"

The two whom were being attacked ran out of the alleyway, leaving their attacker in the clutches of this creature of the night. Sweating, Panting, the inability to breath as you stare your end in the face, that was what this woman was feeling now, she had assaulted a nice couple or maybe they were siblings, he didn't know, but now, now Vengeance and Justice had come for her.

She tried to struggle out the words "P-Ple-Please don't-kill me" she said through horrified tears

A large exhale came from this beast, and then, Peter just dropped her, down unto her boyfriend or partner or brother, again, didn't know, didn't care. He webbed them up and left them there as he swung off to his destination.

Later, Peter arrived at the Alchemax Tower, entering through a secret passage that Liz told him about, he came down underground to her secret Symbiote lab.

And there she was, Liz Allen aka Misery, CEO of Alchemax, and mother to his godson.

"Thank you for coming Spider-Man" Liz stated, her assistant and chief of Symbiote Research was right next to her

"No problem Liz"

"So I see you can at least put the suit away now, how does it feel?"

"In all honesty, it feels Amazing, the strength, the speed, all of it"

Liz smirked, her hand on her hip as she did so, "Good, now come into this room so we can do some tests on you properly"

"Why do we need to do tests?" Peter shrugged his shoulders, his spider sense blaring

Misery rushes her hand down, slicing through Peter's body "This is why?" Misery states, her hand cleaving through him. Peter looks down at his destroyed body, the way he was torn, he feels the pain as his arm and chest were no longer a part of him, then a feeling comes through him, his body starts to close up, arms and chest begin to return to him and just like that, his body is fixed and he is healed.

"How?"

"We can do the same, so could our Symbiote Monkey, I'm happy to see that you can do it too" it was hard to hear the tone of her voice like that

Peter was absolutely amazed at his new Regenerative Abilities, he doesn't even feel any pain, kinda hard to believe that a literal second ago, he was torn in half.

The tests continued for a bit with Peter going through a few sequences of them. And he was liking what he could do now, oh he was really liking what he could do now and this power…. this new power was amazing!

Yep, He was Back!

"So Liz, can I ask why exactly you decided to help me like this"

Liz looked at him like he was stupid or something, why wouldn't she help him?

"Why wouldn't I help you?"

BUT ELSEWHERE

An Individuals ran across multiple buildings, jumping from one to the other in the shadows masking her. This figure, being female, she landed on the edge of a building she crouched down unto a knee glaring down at her target, the coms set off in her ears as she continued to glare down at it. It was a warehouse, a Stark Industries Warehouse containing unknown technology and this girl, her attention not known, she could be a thief, or a protector for what is within it. She glared at the storage unit for all the technology.

INFRONT OF THE GATES OF THE WAREHOUSE

This figure, looking at the Storage House, she stood at the gate, it was incredibly High Tech, blocking out any that would try to enter it, but knowing the arrogance of Tony Stark, the girl, put her hand on the gate her hand slowly began to sink into it, and then walking through it completely. As she appears on the other side, her body was finally brought into a light.

The girl's body was slightly above average height, she had brown hair with green deep-set eyes with thin eyebrows, short eyelashes on a round face.

What she wore was a Spider-Suit, but not like most of them, her suit was mostly black from her ankles up to her waist, leaving her with white sneakers, for her upper body, she had a mostly black top going all the way to her neck, around her neck was a scarlet web like design around from her neck to her shoulders, the white of her suit was going from her the base of her wrists all the way down to the scarlet of her shoulders. Then on her chest, the white of her suit was then cut through by a massive Black Spider Symbol. She didn't wear a full mask, the one she had on was one that only covered up from her mouth upwards to her nose as her Green Eyes and Shoulder Length Brown hair were set free.

She looked at the warehouse walking towards it and she smiled.

The girl took steps towards the storage unit, she entered, her body passing through a wall to the innards of the building. She walked into the place, her eyes scanned the surrounding area, walking forward and almost marveling at what was stored here. But there was only one option in mind that caught her attention

"Track, are you there?" the girl whispered. To an unknown individual

Said Individual 'Track' responded to her almost immediately "Yep Shadow-Spider, read you loud and clear"

"Alrightie then, where's this…thing I'm looking for?"

The sound of clacking on keys is heard through the coms, "Uh-huh, okay then…take a left, walk straight, punch a door in, kick a guard in the nuts and the thing that kinda looks like a stupid looking Kidney"

"Kidney?" she questioned with an arched brow

"Hey I didn't make this shit up, now move before I have to come there myself" she said with a very audible smirk.

The now named Shadow-Spider, then moved the way she was ordered too, moving forward in the house, she stopped and crouched down behind a crate, hiding as a Drone came into view, scanning the area. As it scanned the area where Shadow-Spider was hiding, she was gone, it continued to scan the area and then it left to continue its security.

Back with the crate, Shadow-Spider De-Camouflaged from where she had remained. Showing her ability to Camouflage herself. She moved towards the area she was ordered to go, reaching the front of a door, she pressed her hand against it, it zapping her, obviously this one, wouldn't allow her to just pass right through it. So seeing this, reaching into her pocket, a pair of red lensed goggles, she puts it against her mask and the two connect.

The mask allowed her to scan the metal, Adamantium and Iron-Ore, along with a magnetic displacement field to disrupt her phasing power, and her Invisibility won't help in something like this, so…cocking her fist back, flexing every muscle in her arm, it stretch out in her suit showing a massive amount of muscle. She throws a straight punch at the door, the impact that was generated from this creates a massive quake in the area, the entire storage house, and the neighborhood begins to dastardly shake and almost begins to crumble.

Then finally, removing her fist to see that her hand had indeed left a massive dent in the Adamantium Shell, shaking off the damage, she closed her hand once more and through another punch, making and even bigger dent, Shadow-Spider keeps punching the metal for about three more times and then, she finally puts a hole through the metal.

She pulls her hand out, putting both hands on the sides of the hole, she forces the Adamantium Wall, tearing it further and further open and then, finally, she just tears the metal apart and then, the once indestructible metal; had been ripped to pieces.

Walking into the area, she finds the Vault, looking around inside, she finally finds what she's been looking for, it was a Kidney Shaped Object, with a Green Liquid Container and a Trigger. What was this, a Gun?

Taking it, she webbed the object to her body, and the moment she takes it out, the alarms go off loudly as the room goes red. "Track; how long do I have before Stark shows up?"

"You got 3mins, 5 at most"

Shadow-Spider immediately gets to racing out of the Storage House, moving quite very quickly, moving and maneuvering through everything that was in her path. She leapt over an explosive, using a Web Zip to pull herself forward and avoid gunfire, then finally, she phases through a wall to get herself out of the Storage House and barrel rolls on the ground as she landed.

"Okay, I'm not now…(Cracks)…Track? TRACK?!"

Her senses go off as she jumps back, Danger! She cartwheels out of the way as something swung past her, she lands on the ground and so did whomever attacked her. Looking at her assailant, it was…it was Miles Morales.

The New Iron Spider-Man.

"Woah, who the hell are you?" Spider-Man question her with a glare

Shadow-Spider glared back at him "Nobody important to you, Morales" she said, stunning the hero

Miles was shocked, who was this woman and how did she know his real name "Sorry, don't know who that is" Shadow-Spider smirked through the mask, she knew he would try to lie about his name, protecting his secret identity, it was admirable and but, he…was…A Traitor.

Shadow-Spider took a fighting stance.

Spider-Man took a fighting stance; his Iron Arms were ready with Venom Energy Passing through them. The teenager was fully ready to face her as well, he had his Iron Spider Suit, this would make him ten times stronger, faster and more durable than he already was and with the Ark Reactor in his chest, it meant that his Venom Power would be getting a ten times power increase as well.

Shadow-Spider, didn't have any of this, he had a very High Tech Battle Suit, Venom Energy, Camouflage and Spider Powers and she…

She was completely casual about all of it. In fact, if he was reading her correctly then, then she wasn't at all fazed by him, she straightened herself up, putting her hand closer to her neck and cracked it a little,

"What're you doing?" Miles asked confused

Shadow-Spider stopped with the loosening of her bones to look at Miles almost puzzled, she begun to cross stretch her arms while looking at him with fake confusion. "What am I doing?" she repeated to him "What's wrong with stretching before a fight, I mean I wouldn't want to pull something now" she finally answered him, something about her calm demeanor set Miles off, how could she be so calm about all of this?

Miles rushed at her with a Venom Punch, with her arms folded, she moves her head slightly to the right, completely dodging his attack, as he lands he immediately follows up with a High Venom Kick, she simply ducks her head down, dodging this as well, and the two begin to fight each other, or more of Miles trying to land something, to which she completely dodged all of his attacks, with a raised eyebrow

"You're Pete's replacement? Don't make me laugh" she said to him arrogantly

Miles threw another punch at her face to which once more, she dodged completely and then finally, she responded to him, throwing a quick jab at his head. He dodges this "Woah!" and jumps back, she was still in that punch stance, glaring at him

"Well, I guess you can at least didge alright"

Miles was breathing heavily, she was fast, incredibly fast, he almost couldn't react to that last attack and what's even worse, it didn't set off his Spider-Sense at all, if the suit hadn't alerted him in time, he might not have gotten away in time. Shadow-Spider goes back to loosening her bones, having not quite broken herself in just yet.

"Oh man, that last punch, I almost sprained something in that last one"

And again, Miles could tell he was being punked, this Mystery Spider-Woman, she was toying with him, not taking this seriously…at all.

"I mean, Miles, it would be better for you if you actually took this seriously, or else it won't be any fun when I beat you into the ground" Shadow Spider declared

Miles got into another fighting stance

"Or you could avoid all the incoming pain and just let me go"

"Sorry lady, not happening"

"Lady? We are the same age Miles"

"Seriously (his voice cracks) who is Miles?"

Shadow-Spider no longer having the energy to play the secret identity game with him any longer just decides to give something to him.

"Okay this is like, going to be forever and I really only have a few more minutes before Big Bad Iron Dad shows up"

Miles readies himself for anything, and then out of nowhere, he receives a devastating Knee to the torso, this single hit was so tense on his body that he drops to one knee the moment she removed her knee from his body. That one attack was more than enough to bring him down like this 'I…I didn't even see her move, and my Spider Sense, it…it didn't go off' Shadow Spider looks down at Miles, disappointed already at him.

That armor was supposed to make him stronger and yet, she sends him into the air with a single kick, he manages to position himself a few meters away from her, but that distance was closed in an instant with a flying knee to the face, this singular attack broke off part of his helmet, while still in midair, she grabbed him by the leg and slammed him into ground, cocking back her fist, she delivers a devastating blow, crushing his internals and busting the chest plate of his armor.

'H-How is she this strong?' Miles thinks to himself 'Okay Morales, get to thinking, she's immune to your spider sense, spider sensing can see her but she's moving too fast to even react, and by what I can tell, she isn't even going all out'

Miles charges his body full with Venom Power, his eyes, chest and body all glow Orange with power, as he gets ready to fight off this mysterious woman and whom, he doesn't even know that which she is fully capable off.

As his Assailant stares at him, still with a blank expression, she raises a brow at him,

"Is that all you have?"

Once again showing her brazen disregard for Miles, walking towards him again, she completely ignores his Overcharge like it were still not enough to bring her down, but stopping when she gets close, she smirks at him

"Three Hits" she says, raising her fingers to emphasis this

Miles looks at her confused "What?"

"Three…you get Three Free Hits, to which I will not retaliate, block, dodge or try to fight back, but know, when this period expires, you will see just what I'm…" she's cut off by a fist that cracks across her face, and cracks her left eye lens, followed by a Knee to her jaw, and a full power Venom Dash directly to her face, tackling her to the ground and then finally throwing her across the compound, her feet skid across the ground as she regains herself.

Miles moves in once more for a full power Venom Punch, Orange Lightning crackles across his hand as he throws the finishing blow.

PAP!

And to his absolute horror, this Mysterious…although just having been on the receiving end of his hardest attacks, she seemed to be barely hurt at all, holding completely nullified his attack with just one arm

"Hey, I said you get a three hits period, and you've used it up, not to well might I add"

She delivers another punch to his torso, the force from that singular punch sends him flying into the wall, breaking the wall and he was immediately knocked out. Shadow-Spider shoots a web-line, pulling herself up and beginning to swing through the city with what she had taken and as well as having taken down one of the Avengers.

LATER, ALCHEMAX

Peter and Misery were done with their tests; he was absolutely astonished at what he had become, he hadn't believed he would ever be capable of all of this, looking up at her, then slowly looking down as she was returning to her human form. She smiles at him as his body releasing black, white and red tendrils from his body, retracting all of them to turn to her with a smile.

"Thank You Liz, we feel amazing"

Peter opened the doors to the secret base, shooting a web line from the back of his wrist as he swings away. Sticking to the shadows as he swung through his city

'Man I cannot believe the way this new suit works, the way all three Symbiotes culminate together like this, Hybrid Symbiotes, man this is seriously worth looking further into, but remembering what Liz said to him.

"Why wouldn't I help you?" Liz inquired from him "You've been helping me and my family since we were in High School together, you've put the entire city and everyone in it for years, you've never asked anything in return, so let me help you with this"

"You didn't have too"

"And you didn't have to save me and my family from Red Goblin, but you did and I choose to do this for you Pete"

Peter was moved back by this, he had never really been one to receive much good from others, most of the time it was people shaming him, throwing things at him, hating him, to actually be shown love from his personal life for once was just so rejuvenating.

Back in present time, Peter had just finished his swing home, he wanted to go out on patrol, but he needed the heat from Tony to die down a bit more first, he didn't need him coming back for this Symbiote Suit. He smirked at seeing Tony's face when he would find out that Peter had in fact remained a hero still, but it did make him wonder, what had the other avengers been up to that they just allowed Stark to do whatever he wanted now?

But on the way back, he heard something, an alarm was ringing in the distance, he knew that he had to stay hidden, but then he remembered, he couldn't stand aside and let people be hurt by whatever the cause of this was. Shooting another web line, he swings in the direction of the alarms.

He just hoped that after tonight.

He would still be able to operate in the shadows.
