(First PoV)
"Can you make it?"
Peter glanced at my idea. A smartphone.
"...It is possible."
"Hmm, then create a prototype and tell me what will be needed. I will go to Vietnam and India to make preparations for manufacturing. I think there will be a trade war between China and USA. And well, we don't want them copying our hardwork."
"Here are the cookies!"
Ursula brought cookies from the kitchen, and well, they are indeed delicious. She sat next to Peter, and he didn't really had any reaction to it.
Oh well.
"Ursula, do you want to be incharge of the kitchen of a restaurant-"
"I do!"
"Then, I will call you when the location is chosen. A homely feel will be better, right?"
"Eh, I don't know..."
"Alright. I will drop you guys to your homes. Peter, come with me to the hospital for a bit. I need you to take a look at something."
"Sure."
After dropping her to home, I and Peter went to Harry Hospital, where Gwen was already present.
Father will probably become Green Goblin in a few months if I don't find another cure for him.
That's why, I have been trying to create the Extremis virus.
Gwen has been helping Dr Hansen as her assistant, and I am bringing Peter on the project too. I had him take a look several times, but it hasn't become perfect yet. The animals explode 2 out of 10 times.
If a breakthrough doesn't happen within this week, I am going to have to ask for Tony Stark's help, who originally perfected it. The problem is, it is still 2004, and he is very much involved with weapons industry.
Knowing USA's track record, and the current invasion in Afghanistan and Iraq, especially it training terrorists in Pakistan to invade Afghanistan, several terrorists might appear with suicide bombing capabilities.
And the government will certainly put the blame on me, who doesn't create weapons nor has the intellect to create them.
As we entered the underground facility of the hospital, we found Gwen discussing things with Dr Hansen.
Maybe after becoming a spidey, Gwen's intellect, or atleast her thinking speed has increased?
Gwen turned around, and gave me a big smile.
"Harry, I think this project is close to completion!"
Gwen happily hugged me, and I felt heat rising with us.
Extremis is about to be completed!?
Then this means, I can save Dad huh.
A smile spread across my face.
"But... while it is working perfectly on rats... we will need to know if it will work on humans..."
Gwen muttered, and I froze. So that's why this project is 'almost complete'.
For it to complete, we will need human experimentation...
Maybe if we use criminals, no. That will create a lot of problems.
We should have a dying patient test it, with his consent and all.
Hmm... we have to do it without anyone knowing, especially SHIELD/HYDRA.
I can't let Dad know about this for now, otherwise, he will recklessly try to use it on himself without knowing if it is perfect or not.
I can't sense any surveillance with my spider senses here. Gwen must have removed them.
Gwen looked at me with questioning eyes. I had told her that I was doing this to cure Dad's and my own eventual genetic disease.
But human experimentation...
The biggest hurdle to cross is now.
