Spider-Man & Lois

Moving in

Reed made a meeting time for Peter and his family for the weekend, and it worked out for them since they had to pack.

Moving from Metropolis to New York was an almost too easy transition for the family. Things were mostly the same between the cities, just one is grimmer and everyone is annoyed to meet you.

By the time they got everything moved over, the school year was about to start, and it was the perfect time to get the kids to the Baxter Building.

Susan Storm was currently working on some scans that were reading Mayday for any anomalies in her DNA.

"So... you guys did the same thing here to my dad?" Mayday tried to strike a conversation with the Invisible Woman.

"Yeah, when he was a member here, we did a few experiments on him," Susan confirmed as she was examining the results. "He even got close to my brother, Johnny."

"And...my dad dated you?" Mayday wonders.

"Oh, yeah. It was just a quick date. It was just to smite Reed. I mostly complained about him." Susan then remembered what happened at the end. "Then Namor came and attacked him."

"What?" Mayday asked in shock.

"It's... a long story." Susan shrugged and looked over the data. "That's...odd."

Reed was also doing the same for April, going over the same scans and DNA tests.

"So... you might be able to remove these powers if I have any?" April asks Reed.

"Well, not exactly." Reed was sorry to say as he scanned her for biological differences. "We're trying to pinpoint just what is different. When your father got bit, his body started to biological change."

"How?" April was starting to worry.

"His muscle mass was increased. Brain function was increased. His body started to take the characteristics of a spider. Even grew extra arms at one point."

"I'm sorry, he what?" April asked in complete shock.

"Yeah, it was something that happened long ago," Reed explains to her. "His spider DNA was slowly increasing and needed to be stopped. Be glad we were able to, or your dad would have six hands and four eyes."

"Are you telling them stories about my embarrassing times?" Peter asked as he strolled in and saw April. "Everything good?"

"I... feel fine." April shrugged, standing for the scanners to keep doing their thing. "So, about those extra limbs..."

"If you're worried about it happening to you, don't." Peter quickly assured her. "My DNA was corrected long before you were born. The only thing that's possible to be passed down is the powers."

"And... there is no cure?" April asks.

"With your dad, a cure was optional." Reed gestured to Peter. "His DNA was tampered with. It was easy to find the anomalies in his body." Then he turned to Peter with the results. "Which leads me to the bad news."

"What's that?" Peter wonders.

Susan then came in as well, Mayday close behind her as she showed the results. "Something tells me that we got the same results."

"What's that?" Peter was getting worried.

"There are no anomalies in their DNA," Reed said and showed Peter the results.

"What?" Peter asks as he took the tablets and was surprised. "That's not possible."

"Actually, it is." Reed was sorry to say. "It's as I was saying. Your body knows what was tampered with, so making a cure would be as simple as it is to reconstruct your DNA."
