Chereads / Absolute Spider-Man: Black City / Chapter 2 - can't be the same spider, right?

Chapter 2 - can't be the same spider, right?

"Beep, Beep, Beep."

"Mmmm, shut up. "Click."

….

"Beep, Beep, Beep."

"Alright, I'm up."

As I slowly get out of bed, arching and slumping my shoulders, "God, I feel sluggish from work and exercise."

As I wake up, I try to adjust my eyes to the light coming from my lamp I left on.

Mornings really aren't for me, are they?

" yawwwnn"

Alright, time to start my day. I put on some shorts and a white shirt with a pair of running shoes.

Alright, time to go

I go down the old stairs in my studio and go through the front entrance to see a dark sky full of clouds.

The street lights are on with some flickering or completely off.

Not many people out this morning; better go the other route.

I turn around and proceed to jog my alternate route for today, which takes me through some back streets to a giant abandoned factory with a giant field around it.

Alright, got my heart. Pumping a little, let's get to work. I proceed to jog around the empty field for an hour and a half.

"Huff huff huff."

I grabbed my water to take a sip, then my gaze Went to the abandoned building as it was now brighter outside even with the cloudy weather.

"Well, I never went inside. It wouldn't hurt to take a quick look as I have some spare time today," I say while looking at my phone to see the time.

I walk to a broken Window of the building and hop inside It's decently visible because most of the windows are broken or have nothing in the way.

Hmmm, I look around and see graffiti. On the walls, I see the Avengers all united together on a giant wall.

"I wonder how it will feel to be like them," I pondered over what I would do while staring intently at the wall.

Well, better move on. I don't want to stay here for too long.

As I retrace my steps, but I see a crack on the ground in another room with a small hole that caught my attention.

As I turn my head and walk closer to see, I grab my phone and turn on my camera with the flash and put it to the hole

"What the hell, it's like a lab." As I turn my phone to get better angels, I hear a few cracks, then

" crack" crack"

"fuckkkkk"

"Bang, ""crash"

"Ahhhhhh, fuck that hurt goddammit," I say in a raspy voice as I try to breathe, but air just can't seem to come in as I struggle to move my chest feels like an elephant is standing on me, preventing me from breathing.

After lying down for 15 minutes I slowly get up and look around taking heavy breaths that hurt my chest a little with this sharp then numbing pain.

"I just want to get out of here now." As I look around, I see I didn't fall that far, but the stone felt and worsened the impact I took with a big piece landing on my chest, which pushed out the air, and the back hitting the ground didn't help either.

But how do I get out? As I slowly get up using my knees for support, I see clear boxed cases with wood, sticks, and leaves. As I walk closer, I notice each box has a dead spider.

Huh, they must have starved without a way to get out. As I look around, I notice each and every box had a single spider that lay dead, similar to the other spiders.

But when I got to the end, one box was open with no spider inside.

"One must have gotten out and survived."

As I look around, I turn and push some shelves together and cabinets to help make a staircase out.

Alright, I begin to climb the slightly wobbly staircase I made, then I reached the top, but it was still a little short.

"Shit, if I jump, I can make it, but then my stairs would fall, and if I miss, I'll fall right into that mess."

Alright Peter, focus come on.

I bend my legs, getting ready to jump, then

"crash "bang" pow."

All the cabinets and bookcases fell

"Uhh fuck, Good thing I decided to work out a bit back then."as I hold onto the ledge, I help myself up, I finally get out of the hole as I look down.

I notice a logo carved within one of the books on the floor. Isn't that oscorp?

Did Oscorp own this building before? Is this just a book someone got from them?

Well, for now, I'm going to get the hell out of here. As I walked away, unbeknownst to me, something decided to climb onto me while I was climbing the shelves.

"Shit, my chest still hurts like hell," I say while rubbing the back on my neck.

Well, I think I should just take the rest of the day off after that.

A moment later

"Ouch." What the hell as I grab the back of my neck again and feel around, I feel a bump with some string attached.

"Ahh ouch," yank."

Damn, that hurt more than it's supposed to.

As I pull the string and see what was attached, I notice a long white web with a dead spider attached.

"O shit.. As I stare at the Spider, my blood feels like it starts rushing all over my body,, and sweat starts to come out of every pore in my body.

It's OK it's ok It's just a normal spider bite; nothing to worry that place had to have many spiders just because theirs one cage open doesn't mean it specifically this one.

As I calmed myself and put the spider In a towel I brought to wipe sweat so the spider won't be damaged.

I begin to walk home, but on the walk I start to feel sick, and sweat starts to drain out of me while my body feels like it's burning yet cold from the sweat..

As I walk up the stairs,, I begin to stagger and lean on the rails, trying to hold myself up.

"Fuck, I'm going to to sick."

As I stop myself from vomiting, I unlock my door and immediately go in and lock it, and as I was about to walk to my bed a shock of pain coursed through my body, and I slumped to the ground.

"Sh shit noooo... I can't die like this from a stupid bite."

My eyes start to get heavy, but I fight to keep them open, but no matter what I do, they just get heavier, then darkness.
