Spider-Man x Michelle Jones

Chapter 19

The spring sunshine poured into the windows of the Avengers Compound, taunting and teasing Peter.

The moment he was benched the sun shone and the Avengers were pretty much all called away for a major mission. Peter sat in his lab leaning back on his chair and staring up at the ceiling completely bored out of his skull.

Peter your friend Ned Leeds has sent an encrypted file to your secure server. He says you will need to look at this as soon as humanly possible.

Peter looked at the screen on his desk with interest and accessed the secure server, "Thanks Karen. Load the file for me and decrypt it while you're at it."

Of course Peter I have begun the decryption process.

Within seconds a new file loaded in front of Peter. He opened it and gasped; it was about Norman Osborn. He read it hungrily wanting more information on his potential foe.

Name: Norman Osborn
Age: 51

Position: TERMINATED

Relatives: REDACTED

Bio:
Norman Osborn founded Oscorp in March of 1990. When the company sky rocketed to success Norman Osborn was....

NULL

Peter was greatly annoyed. Most of the file was destroyed and corrupted and the parts that weren't were heavily redacted.

"Karen isn't there any way we can recover the data on this file?" asked Peter with growing frustration already knowing the answer.

Unfortunately Peter the file is so badly corrupted that recovering this amount is a miracle. Ned Leeds is skilled.

"Ugh fine!" snapped Peter as he began scrolling through the file. He was so angry for Ned sending him a damaged file but the moment he pondered calling him to berate him he was surprised.

At the bottom of the file was one word that changed everything.

DECEASED

Peter looked at the word with a furrowed brow. Task Master was wrong. The CEO Norman Osborn was dead and apparently from the records he hacked into from Oscorp's database and the timeline he put in place, the man was dead nearly six and a half years.

"What the hell is going on?" he muttered to himself.

"Karen I need you to run a full detailed analysis of all files obtained from the Oscorp secure databases. Look for anything pertaining to Norman Osborn or his son Harry Osborn. Make sure every megabyte is scoured," says Peter as he re-read the corrupted file Ned had sent him.

Of course Peter. However that is over Nine-Hundred Terabytes of data to analyse. It will take time to search it all.

Peter sighed and leaned back in his chair while running his hand through his hair, "What's the estimated time of completion?" he asked already knowing the answer.

Estimated time of completion is 35 hours 23 minutes and 18 seconds.

Peter nodded, "Notify me when you're finished."

Of course Peter. Also the new configuration for the Iron-Spider Mark 2 armour has been completed.

"Cool I'll test that later," says Peter as he stands up and stretches.

Peter you have an incoming call from Black Cat...shall I answer?

"Yeah put her through," says Peter as he checks the clock. The time reads at 15:00, she must've just finished up with school.
