The Unlimited Omni-Spider

Let's Rock

Ben really didn't understand what had happened in the last hour. His only memories were that he slept and for some reason ended up falling into an alley in London.

Little did he know that, while he slept, another consciousness ended up awakening in his body and his alter-ego, Necro, took control and went to Krakoa to kill Selene Gallio.

After that, Ben ended up in an alley and then found his friend Dawn Braddock-Summers in London walking into a rock band nightclub. She was accompanied by her friend, Irene LeBeau and... Sora Greycrow.

Needless to say, Ben's head practically exploded upon discovering this. Now, the four of them were inside the club and were sitting at one of the tables.

Dawn: All right, let's talk about the biggest problem in the room. Ben...

Ben: "What am I doing in London?" Listen, I don't know either. I think I must have some kind of sleepwalking. Worse, what if I have some sort of illness that makes me fly while I sleep and that's how I got here?

Irene: Did someone chase you here, shoot you or try to put you in a car?

Ben: No. Yeah, I think it should be okay. But I guess I have to figure out how to get home soon.

Dawn: There's a Krakoan Gate in my backyard. I will take you there.

Ben: No need, give me the coordinates and...- Ben was saying but then he looked at Sora for a second and thought of something.

Ben (Thinking): Although... It's not every day that the opportunity to spend time with Sora appears.- He thinks and decides to stay there for a while longer.

Ben: You know what? Everything is fine. After all, it's Friday.- He said with a slight smile as he looked for a second at Sora and then Dawn and Irene realized and decided to act.

Irene: Ben, can you get me another soda at the bar?- She asked in a suspicious way but Ben didn't notice and then he got up and walked away from the table and Sora smiled slightly while looking at him but then noticed the stares suspicious of her friends.

Sora: What?

Dawn: Why didn't you tell us you have a boyfriend?!

Irene: And that boyfriend is Ben. Like, don't get me wrong, you're nice and hot but...Ben is so....

Sora: Irene, you and I are friends but if you insult him, I'll break your face.

Irene: I wasn't going to insult him, I think he's really cute actually.

Dawn: Listen, we've known Ben since childhood. He has aspirations, dreams and goals. But he's so outgoing and you're so serious, focused.

Sora: And you thought I wouldn't like him because he smiles and makes jokes?

Dawn: Sora, you've always been so reserved. Like, dating someone like Ben is amazing. Don't get me wrong, he's great and I'm glad you're with him.

Irene: I think so too. But do you think you can get through it? You never had a boyfriend.

Sora: I didn't have a choice. All the boys on that stupid island you live on are a bunch of perverts who only care about my body. But...if you know Ben, you know he's different. He's nice, he's kind and...damn, he's so cute.

Dawn: He really is.

Irene: Without a doubt.- They say with happy expressions and Sora raises an eyebrow as he suspects something but decides to let it go. They are interrupted when they realize that Ben has arrived.

Ben: Sorry, Irene. There was only a hot soda, it was on top of the heater.

Irene: Damn.

Dawn: Hey, listen, I need to touch up my makeup so Irene, can you come to the bathroom with me? - She said with a forced tone in her voice, as if she was faking it.
