🍕The next day🍕
🍕Peters pov🍕

After what aunt may told me last night, i had to forget everything. About my dad, his work... everything.

I started ripping down all the images and post-it notes i had on my wall, including a framed picture of us which i heard smash as it connected with the ground.

After ripping everything, i threw it into a laundry basket and shoved it onto the floor.

Getting frustrated i grabbed my dad's calculator and harshly threw it against the wall. It exploding with small circular shiny objects flying everywhere. Picking up the calculator, i emptied the remaining few dozen onto my hand.

'He took the D train at 7:20 every morning. Came back at 6:00 every evening' Mays voice echoed through my head.

Making my way over to my computor, i typed into the search bar-

Roosevelt + Subway + D-Train

Clicking on the third link, pictures of an abandoned station called 'Roosevelt "Spur"' appeared.

"Roosevelts secret station. Track 61, a secret subterranean extension of new yorks D Line train under pershin square, originally built to transport president franklin roosevelt away from the public eye, to keep his polio hidden from the american people" i whisper-read to myself so Aunt May doesnt hear what im doing.

I gasped, still not getting what this meant, and gritted my teeth.

🍕Harrys pov🍕

"Mr Osborn? You alright? Can i get you anything or...?" i heard my assistant say. I swallowed the remaining drops of the alcohol, it burning my throat as it went down.

"Not unless you can bring those spiders back to life" i told her not turning around, my voice raspy from the alcohol.

"Spiders?" she asked.

"The ones that were destroyed to... to restore investor confidence" i tell her, reaching my hand over and grabbing a bottle of whiskey and pouring it into my glass.

"Go home, Felicia. Take the day off" i tell her, not wanting to be bothered anymore today.

I start walking away but she speaks up again.

"Harry?" she asks. "I think there may be another way to get what your looking for..." as she says this i turn around.

"I overheard Menken talking to one of our security heads. Before they destroyed the spiders, they had the venom extracted"

"Uh.." i stutter as i put back the bottle of whiskey onto the side, "what- what are you saying?" i stuttered, making my way over to her.

"That way they could comply with the lawsuits but still keep the data incase it ever became useful" she further explains.

"Where is it?" i ask.

"It's somewhere in the building. Somewhere off-books called Special Projects" she tells me.

I instantly make my way over to the table, typing in 'Special Projects' to see what comes up.

'Special Projects. Most recent entry, one hour ago' says the computed voice.

I rummage through the files and stop and a flashing sentence at the top.

"Approved by Harry Osborn" i read.

'Accessing Ravencroft Archive'

I continued to go through every image i was shown on the screen.
