4. Interlude
"Idiot! What is the use of the phone I gave you!?"
After scolding Lil bro, I put him to sleep, informed the police, and went to bed.
I am really glad that it was a false alarm.
I was about to go to Stark Tower, but the security camera sent me notification that someone was front of the house. And it was him.
Phew!
As for the chaos I made in Oscorp? I don't care. They must really be conducting human experiments. Afterall, Norman Osborn has been bedridden for a while, and news has been coming that the board members are planning to sell the company.
Norman must really be conducting human experiments.
Now, I need to somehow get my family powers too. Since this universe is somewhat mix of MCU and TASM, though the spider-bite was quite different than in TASM, Loki should be arriving next year.
I don't know for sure though.
And when HYDRA steals sceptre, I will get the Mind Stone to further power myself up, and use it in the future to create mindless Anti-Venom symbiotes.
Well, I will have to be on lookout for symbiotes first.
And Mr Negative.
Anyway, let's go to sleep for now.

(3rd PoV)
Peter Parker's uncle Ben has been murdered, giving the 'with great power comes great responsibility' speech.
While Peter and Aunt May were filling in the police report, George Stacy received the call that Albert Moon Jr has returned home.
He sighed. Both Peter and Cindy are Gwen's classmates. Is there a bad omen going around?
And then he saw the news of someone swinging around the city, shooting webs.
Peter also looked at the news, and was shocked.
He has been bitten by a spider just yesterday, and he has gained superhuman abilities. While he can't shoot webs, he had thought about making webs since he received his powers after getting bit by a spider.
Has someone else gotten bit by the spider in his class as well?
He doesn't know anyone with white hair in his class.
George patted Peter's shoulder, pulling him out of his shock.
"Go home and rest. We will catch your uncle's killer."
Peter nodded and left for home with Aunt May. Intending to find the killer himself.
Afterall, with great power comes great responsibility.
He is partly responsible for not stopping the robber even though he had the power, and the robber became a murderer, killing his uncle.
After returning home, he clenched his fists and started trying to make webs.

(Daily Bugle TV)
"New York's new menace? Who is she!? Damaging buildings with webs, swinging around? Is she an alien!? Or someone given gadgets by Stark?
Bla bla bla-"
----------------------------
(SHIELD headquarters)
Nick Fury stared at the file.
A girl has been swinging around the city, and the agents that started following her suddenly lost sight of her.
And another report came in.
Dr Curt Connors has been caught snooping around by the undercover agents in Oscorp.
They agents haven't engaged, and are keeping an eye for now.
Are they somehow connected?
Afterall, Dr Connors did do some work on spiders with Dr Parker in the past. Well, Connors has worked on lots of animals and insects. And he is mostly focused on lizards.
But the suspicions can't be denied that he might be connected to that girl.
Or, is she some sort of alien like Thor? Or some sort of Hulk which can cause immense damage if angered?
"Keep an eye, but from a distance. Don't try to approach her."
If she is anything like Hulk, it's best to not anger her for now. Atleast, until they are sure about it.
He called Tony Stark for a superhero group initiative.

(First PoV)
Some days have passed, and I have been attended school as usual. Attending one class, and being absent on the rest.
Giving the class teacher some spoilers about Love is War ensures that I don't get into any trouble. Moreover, my grades are good, so she can't really complain.
Anyway, I can sense Peter having some connection to me via my Silk Sense, but he cannot. Is his Spider-Sense weaker?
I don't know.
After a week of staying at my parents' home, I returned to mine.
I didn't realise it before due to stress, but my Silk senses are crazy. I can easily catch flies, and the buzzing of the busy streets is hard to get used to.
I certainly need more practice.
After taking a bath, and watching the first episode of Love is War which is being animated by KyoAni, I sneaked out of my house and after arriving at the same destination from where I started swinging the last time, I started again with my disguise.
And this time, I reached to the Empire State building more easily, without much effort.
But suddenly, my Silk Sense started going off crazy, so I turned around, ready to attack. But froze after seeing who it was.
Someone who has been 'assaulting civilians' according to Daily Bugle, i.e., beating up criminals that police ignore, and has been labelled Spider-Man.
According to JJJ, he is the head of a spider gang, of which I am a part of without my knowledge. He even gave me 'Spider-Girl' nickname...
"Do you really have a Spider-gang? Tell JJJ that my name is Silk, instead of a lame name like Spider-Girl."
I said while running my hands through my silky white hair, which is a wig made of my webs.
I guess I should start trying to establish a channel. JJJ and other propaganda channels are really starting to annoy me.
"So, just to be sure, did a spider bite you?"
He asked.
"No. I went to Australia, and heard that there is a really delicious delicacy there. I ate a big, I mean, turtle big spider. It was disgusting, and I somehow gained these powers.
You also ate a spider?"
"NO!"
"Ah. So a spider bit you."
"Umm, well, yes."
I frowned as he easily answered my question. I really shouldn't reveal my identity to even him.
He will bring me all sorts of trouble and danger.
"Then kid, go home and stop assaulting people. JJJ is giving me a bad name because of you."
"I don't assault people-! I mean, I am beating up criminals..."
"I don't care. Get that fake news guy off my back. Shoo! This is my building."
I narrowed my eyes as I felt someone's gaze on me. I looked at that direction, and saw Iron-Man flying towards us.
I have no intention of getting involved with any Avenger of sort. Afterall, I plan on becoming North Korea's dictator.
So I jumped down from the building, and started swinging around, and thankfully Peter didn't follow me.
He stayed on that building, so I was able to slip away.
I need to graduate from the school now. I don't want to reveal my identity by simply being close enough to Peter.
And, I was able to ensure one thing. I don't have that weird pheromones shit that I heard about Silk.
Thank god!
Honestly, wouldn't it make more sense for Peter and me to be some sort of sibling because we both have some DNA from the same spider?
...Comic writers have some weird fetishes.
