I am standing in front of the Stark Tower with Happy, about to enter the building. It's the day where I get my spider bite. 15 years and one business later I am standing here to make my biggest dream come to life. I know my family is proud of me, even though they don't show it. But this is my life and I am the main character in it, no one is as important as me.
"This is a big opportunity. You know not everyone gets that chance, especially not when it's Nick Fury that decides. Normally he doesn't even pick people for this, but you're the exception and I want to know why.", Happy explains.
"No I know. I am very happy about it, still can't believe this is happening." I answer with a soft smile.
"So why do you think he chose you?"
"Hmm, I'm not sure. I think it's because he saw my enthusiasm. He understands me."
"Would be the first time.", he jokes. "He is usually not so soft you know."
An agent opens the door.
"Sarah, right?", he asks.
I freeze for a moment.
"Yes, Bennett.", I reassure. Still very nervous about this.
"Come in, they're awaiting you."
I say bye to Happy and follow the agent to the lab. Now there is no turning back, this is it.
I arrive at the lab and greet the scientist. We chat a little and get started. I look at the spider in the box, admiring it's features. He puts the spider on my hand. I play around with it, it seems friendly for a super-spider.
"Let's give it a name, shall we?"
I nod. "How would you call a spider?"
"I dunno. Sparkle?"
"That is an awful name for a spider.", I joke. "Let's just go with Webby."
The scientists agrees.
"Too bad it will die."
"Yeah." Now I actually feel sad. Poor Webbie. Sacrifices his life for a better world. His death is not for nothing.
He notices my sad face and explains that it has a 30% chance of surviving. I start to feel hopeful again. I don't even know why that upsets me, it's just a spider.
He provokes the spider until it bites me. I harden. It doesn't even hurt that much. I can feel its venom flowing in my veins and mixing with my blood, feels odd. That's a weird way to become Spidergirl when you think about it. I mean Spiderman was bitten by accident and I choose to be bitten, now I look crazy compared to him. Anyway.
15 minutes later I leave the Stark Tower, no sight of Tony or Steve. I head to my house, yes you read that right, and go to sleep.
