L.A. Presents: Spider-Man Episode 6: A New Life (Part III) (I dedicate this fiction to the one, the only, Poop Master B a.k.a. Skyle and his robot girls)

On the other side of the city, Nyte is unconscious lying in a pile of demolished metal and glass from what use to be a car. Winona pulls up in a news van and watches the situation. She and the cameraman hop out of the van and begins filming. Winona-Another mutant attack seems to be occurring here today and we are live! It seems that a bat mutant was in a confrontation with other mutants that ceased the Man-Spider attack. Strangely, another mutant has also made an appearance calling him what witnesses say “Spider-Man.” What is the connection with this spider mutant and the spider creature? Suddenly, Spider-Man descends slowly behind Winona while she is giving the report. He makes obscene and joking gestures behind her back while the cameraman tries to indicate to Winona that he is behind her. Winona*grumbles* What is wrong with you? Stop pointing while we are live! Spider-Man lifts up his mask and pokes out his tongue as she scolds the cameraman. Cameraman-Damn it, Winona! That spider mutant is behind you jackass! Winona-What!? She whips around to see Spider-Man hanging upside down and making the gestures. Winona-Uh, uhhhh, uhg! Spider-Man-Uh, uhhh, uhg, me spider want to eat you brains! Winona takes a step back when Spider-Man’s spider sense goes berserk. He hops down and carries the cameraman and Winona out of the way as a car comes soaring down from the sky. He drops them down and looks up to see Nyte slowly hovering. He leaps into the air and then adheres to the side of a building. Spider-Man-Looks like Rachel really put something on ya…good. Nyte-No matter, I will heal very soon. Nyte flies off towards a building that seems to be abandoned and Spider-Man follows him close by as the cameraman and Winona come to their feet. Cameraman-Sheesh! When I am pointing at you like that, it means to wiggle your ass and look what is behind you! Winona-Is he going to eat our brains!? Cameraman-No, you nincompoop! He was making fun of you! Winona-Ohh! Hehehee, how cute… Spider-Man walks around the dark building. Spider-Man-Come on out and take your ass whippin like a….bat. Nyte-*echoes* I don’t want to fight you Darnell. I want you to join me. You have given me so much knowledge with your transformation into whatever specimen of a human you are now. Together, we can make such vast research and discovery in the enhancement of humankind. Spider-Man-Humankind doesn’t need enhancement the fast way, it takes time playa. Nyte-So arrogant yet so stupid. Let me let you in on a little secret, all mutants carry a significant DNA strand in their physiology known as the X Gene. This gene provides them with the mutant characteristics that grant them their mutant abilities and appearance. Now, in some humans there is a dormant gene called the V gene. This gene is missing its other half in order to form a complete X gene. I have found that I can unlock the V gene and completely morph it into a complete X gene. Spider-Man continues searching the building for Nyte’s scent, but comes up empty handed. Spider-Man-I don’t believe you maniac. Nyte-Really, then how do you think you are the specimen you are now? Spidey stops in his tracks and is surprised by this analogy. Nyte-That’s right, the spider wouldn’t have even bitten you if it couldn’t sense the V gene. I only unlocked something that was dormant in you. Spidey’s spider sense goes off the charts as the building begins quaking violently. Nyte is outside of the building and release another terrible sonic blast from his mouth to make the building buckle. With little resistance, the building topples over and is demolished. Nyte-Another time, spider. As Nyte flies away, Winona and the cameraman look at the rubble in shock. Winona-He…he…killed him. They begin walking closer to the rubble, when suddenly Spider-Man bursts from under the debris. Spider-Man-Ummm, OUCH! Cameraman-You okay? Spider-Man-Yeah, just damn peachy. He shoots a web line and swings away. Winona-Wow, what a man… Meanwhile at Rachel’s apartment, Rachel, Josh and Aquia are making a report to the police. Rachel-Yes, it was a large Man Bat! He took out my wall and tried to kill all of us. Police-Was this some kind of mutant gang war? Josh-What? Police-Well, it is obvious that girl right there is also a mutant. Maybe that was her boyfriend or something and this was some kind of domestic dispute. Aquia-You idiot! He took out a wall that I don’t even own, so how could he be trying to get back at me! Police-Ma’am, I did not mean… Rachel-Oh, save it! If this had anything to do with mutants, just blame the closes mutant near by! Thanks for your help but no thanks! Now leave! The police leave as Darnell walks through huge hole in the wall. Darnell-Hey guys, was sup? Aquia-Darnell! Josh-You okay man? Darnell-I am okay, I think. Just a huge building toppling on top of me that’s all. Rachel-Well, the police are not worth a damn, the insurance is going to take care of the wall and I got another apartment down the hall until this is taken care of. Oh, and the Miles Ball is tonight. Josh-Yeah, think we should still go? Darnell-Might have to, just in case Croft shows up there. Rachel-You didn’t catch him? Darnell-Nope, the bastard got away. Josh-I guess that fixes that then, to the Ball we go. Aquia-Umm, could someone give me a lift to the shelter? Rachel looks at Darnell. Darnell-Oh, oh yeah! Sure…um, where is that again? In the city, the walking citizens stop and look into the air as they once again see Spider-Man web swinging in the air as if he owns the skyscrapers. This time, with a female accomplice. Aquia-WOW! This is so fun! Spider-Man-Yeah, saves on all that expensive gas too! He begins slowly descending towards the shelter and gives a slight drop from the webbing to the ground. People begin running towards them to get a glimpse of Spider-Man. Spider-Man-Yikes, I better get going. Remember Aquia, tomorrow and we are going job-hunting okay? Aquia-I won’t forget, see you tomorrow…bye bye! He waves and then leaps into the air and swings away. Spider-Man-*thinks* Damn, am I that popular already? As Spidey swings around a corner he notices 3 motorcycles parked directly in front of a bank with the front windows busted out. Spider-Man-Now that is strange… Inside the bank, 3 very gorgeous women in motorcycle outfits are robbing the bank. Laser-Now hurry up with that moneybag gotta have time to stop by the nail saloon. Fire-Pipe down, I am going as fast as I can. How are you holding up back there, Brick? Brick draws back and punches a hole through the safe. Brick-Not a problem. The women quickly hurry the money bagging when Spider-Man swings through the broken glass entrance. Spider-Man-Well ladies, I would like some penny wrappers, and some bank pens as well. I can never seem to have enough pens on me. Brick-Wow, you are kind of cute in a semi-creepy type of way. Spider-Man-Yeah thanks, and you are sort of…huge for an Amazon. Spider-Man runs towards them but the woman known as Fire releases a rapid barrage of fireballs from her hands. Spider-Man does a half twist in the air to dodge the flames when Brick runs up and tackles him in mid air. Spider-Man-Ooof! She stands straight up while grabbing Spider-Man from behind clinching him very tightly. Spider-Man-Cant…breat…breathe… Brick-That is the general idea baby. Laser and Fire grab the moneybags and head for the motorcycles. Laser-Come on Brick! Put the web head to sleep, and lets jet! Brick-Awww, but I was going to take him home with me. Oh well, catcha later my little spider poo. Brick releasers her mighty grasp and hurls him into the damaged safe. The 3 rogue women hop onto their motorbikes and make a quick and rowdy exit from the bank. The bank employees and customers get up from the floor traumatized at the ordeal. Spider-Man slowly gets up and walks out of the safe rubbing his neck. Spider-Man-First I get a building dumped on me, then I get fireballs hurled up my ass and then almost get bear hugged by an Amazon. What the hell type of day is this? Customer-You all right? Spider-Man-Yeah, I am all right. Did anyone get hurt? Customer-No, they just wanted the money. Police cars screech in front of the bank. Spider-Man still tries to get his head together as they come barging in. Police-Freeze mutant! Spider-Man-What? Police-Put your hands in the air now! Spider-Man-Just damn it… Spider-Man quickly leap frogs over the officers and swings away. He tries to sniff out the bank robbers but comes up short. He wonders why he can’t smell them but then forgets about it as he continues making his way back to the apartment. Spider-Man-*thinks* What the hell is wrong with me? I can’t seem to use my tracking abilities. He swings down about a block away from the apartment into an alley. He deactivates the DV and returns to his regular clothing. He enters the complex and walks into the elevator. The elevator arrives at his floor and then he walks out. He notices the big wall where Rachel’s apartment is located and continues on down the hall. He arrives at the new apartment and walks in noticing Josh and Rachel watching T.V. Darnell-Next time, I will take your Mercedes Rachel. Josh-Check out the news Darnell. Reporter-Today, New York International bank was robbed by four mutants. Darnell-Damn, I could have sworn it was only 3 of those girls. Reporter-Police say it was 3 women and the black and red clad mutant now known as Spider-Man. Darnell clinches his fist as he continues to watch programming. Officer-He resisted arrest and we do have a warrant for his arrest. Reporter-The bank customers say that Spider-Man was actually trying to stop the bank robbery but others say that is not true. We will have other news on this subject later. Darnell-Sheesh, can we go to the party now? I think I have had my share of Spidey for today. Rachel-Maybe you should stay here and rest, Darnell. Darnell-Nah, just need some good partying and some liquor playa. Josh looks at his watch. Josh-Well, we better start getting ready in a bit. Damn traffic is going to be backed up for hours at the Ball Room. All 3 of them walk to their rooms and begin preparing for the Ball. On a low-key part of the city, the 3-biker girls arrive at a garage. They all dismount their bikes and walk into the large garage cheerfully. Laser-Look at all that good cash! Fire-I know a little lady who is going to buy her a fat new bike! Brick-Why buy it when we can steal it? All-Hell yeah! As they rejoice in their expenses, a dark figure looms out from the shadows. Voice-I take it you all were successful? Laser-Yes, and we got lots of cash for you. Voice-Leave the bags there and all of you return to your Charging Pods. We have plans for this afternoon. The women walk towards 3 large glass chambers. All of them enter their separate chambers as the door closes behind them. The chambers begin emitting a bright green glow as if it were charging batteries. The dark figure slowly creeps back into the shadows and disappears. Near downtown, the Miles Ball Room illuminates all that surrounds it. Huge spotlights are swaying back and forth. Limos pull up to the red carpet delivering many party guests dressed in their evening attire. As Darnell sits in the limo, he cannot help but to look at all busyness and excitement that is surrounding him. Darnell-Wow, this looks like Hollywood! Josh-Wait until you get inside, it is the hottest spot in New York City tonight. The limo stops and the driver steps out. He walks over to the passenger rear side and opens the door. Rachel steps out and then Josh. The driver keeps the door open waiting for Darnell to step out. On the other side of the limo, Darnell opens the door and steps out. Rachel and Josh both laugh at him as he walks around to the other side. Rachel-You know, you were suppose to come out this side. Darnell-Really? I didn’t see a manual saying that. They all walk up the red carpet as the various camera flashes ignite the area. Reporter-Dr. Williams, Dr. Williams! Darnell-Wow, didn’t know you were so popular, Rachel. Rachel-Come on, I am one of the smartest and brightest! Reporter-Hello to you too Dr. Beck. And may I ask who is this handsome man with you? Darnell-I like her already! Rachel-*chuckles* This is my long time friend Darnell Thomas. He is new to New York and he is going to be with us tonight. Reporter-Great! Hope all of you have a good time and nice to meet you Mr. Thomas. Darnell-Ack! Just call me Darnell.*winks* All three make their way into the entrance and Darnell is in shock at the exquisite ballroom. On the opposite side of the room, Max Malone stands impatiently. He makes continuing sips of his champagne and looks across the room. Max-Damn it, that girl hasn’t showed up yet and she has my credit card. What the hell was I thinking getting a young woman such a…….such a…..whoa. Winona walks towards Max in a very exotic and eye-catching dress. Winona-I am so very sorry, Mr. Malone. There was a terrible line outside and then there was not a parking space in sight, and then people were trying to take pictures……and then… Max-Calm down, calm down! I wasn’t even looking for you yet. Oh and I must say, Halle isn’t a mutt anymore…….she is a damn llama! Winona giggles as she gets a glass of champagne and begins drinking. Meanwhile, Darnell, Josh and Rachel are mingling with some guests and basically having a great time. As Darnell’s eyes glance over the ballroom, he notices Winona walking over towards a table crowded with food. Darnell-*thinks* It cant be. Isn’t that the reporter I was making fun of as Spider-Man? Josh-See something you like, D? Darnell-Nah, just a familiar face. I will be back in one minute. Darnell makes a slow pace towards the food table. He comes to Winona’s side and begins picking up a plate. Darnell-Mm this looks tasty, doesn’t? Winona-I prefer a huge hamburger and some onion rings. Darnell-Oh, not into this rich people food? Winona-Not really. Darnell-Hey, aren’t you that reporter that the spider mutant was making fun of today? Winona whips around towards Darnell to make a rash statement but stops as she looks at him grinning. Winona-No, that was not me! Darnell-Hmm, you sure? Cause I think you had that exact same look on your face. Winona gives a slight growl and storms off while Darnell continues to grin. Darnell-Heh heh heh, another satisfied customer. Suddenly, a man on the microphone comes on and the guests become silent. Announcer-Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. And Mrs. Miles. All the Ball Room guests begin applauding as Alexander Miles and Claudia Miles appear on an upper balcony waving at the guests. Alexander-Thank you all and welcome again to my Annual Ball Festival. All of you know that I donate something to New York every year. In the past were Miles Hospital, Miles Science and other establishments. This year I would like to present…..Miles York University! All the guests applaud wildly and in excitement as they hear the announcement. Alexander-Thank you, the construction has been successful and classes with begin in 2 or 3 weeks. I am very proud that I can give young people an educated stand in the future. And now, enjoy the festivities. Alexander and Claudia Miles begin walking down the stairs to the meet the ballroom guests. Darnell smirks and looks back at the food table for something to eat as a young woman walks up beside him. Monica-Just don’t eat anything on the table that is green…it will hurt you. Darnell-Thanks, but I think I will just make my way to Burger King afterwards. Hey, my name is Darnell. Monica-Monica, Monica Miles. Darnell-Wait a sec, are you related to Alexander Miles? Monica-I might be. I am his daughter. Alexander calls for his daughter to meet some of the teachers that will be at the university. Monica-Oh well, back to business. Nice meeting you Darnell. Darnell-Same here. Monica walks towards her dad as Josh and Rachel arrive. Josh-Going for the boss’s daughter, eh? Darnell-No! I was just saying hello, honest. Rachel-Yeah, I know how your HELLOS tend to be. Darnell-Whatever, can’t a person be nice these days…uh oh. Darnell’s spider sense goes awry and he begins looking around attentively. Darnell-Something bad is going down.. Abruptly, 3 motorcycles roar through the glass windows and screech into the ballroom. The guests scream in shock and try to dodge the motorcycles paths. Josh snatches a man out of the way as he is narrowly missed by one of the motorcycles. Josh gets a cold stare on his face when Rachel grabs him. Rachel-Not here, we can’t risk using our powers here. Darnell? Rachel turns around to see that Darnell is nowhere to be seen. The 3-biker women dismount and begin making demands. Laser-All right richies! Give us all your money, and jewelry and nobody gets hurt! Alexander-You can’t do this! Brick walks towards Alexander and lifts him into the air. Brick-What was that little man? Spider-Man bolts down from the balcony and kicks brick fiercely in the back. Alexander gets tossed into the air and Spider-Man leaps to catch him. Spider-Man-Are you cool? Alexander-Wha, yes thank you, thank you. Spider-Man-No problem playa. A huge sound of glass shattering is heard as the momentum sends Brick through the glass windows. Laser and Fire rush to her aid outside. Fire-Wow, he put it to you sis! Brick-Shut up… Spider-Man makes sure all the guests are all right and then he makes his advance outside. The camera reporters scurry to safety as they watch the development unfold. Brick slowly stands up and gives Spider-Man an angry stare. Brick-You are going to pay for that one Creepy Crawler! Spider-Man-Sorry, unlike all the “richies” in there…I left my credit card at home. The women all grin and then power up. Fire’s body becomes ignited with flames, Brick cracks her knuckles, and Laser’s eyes and hands begin emitting a red glow. Spider-Man-Oh man, this is going to be….fun. TO BE CONTINUED…..
