''Come on, Miguel,'' pleaded Jessica, ''That girl just helped us, who cares if she acts like a teenager!''

"I care, Jess," said Miguel in a stern tone, "But fine, I'll think about it once I know more about her. I'll check her background status.''

''Thanks, Miguel,'' Jessica sighed in relief.

Miguel groaned softly as he walked over to the multiple screens in his large hideout. I let out a long and heavy sigh as he looked through the screens, one of which replayed the memory of her daughter. He felt himself smile seeing her daughter smiling so brightly. 

''Lyla.''

''What's up?'' Lyla appeared in front of him.

''I need a background check on the Spider-Woman in Earth-7809,'' Miguel said sternly, ''Show me her canon events and all.''

''Alrighty,'' Lyla zoomed across the screens, ''Found it! Shakira Pizcalli, age 23, female and she is single~''

''Ha ha, very funny, just show me her damn past,'' Growled Miguel.

''Jeez, fine, here,'' Lyla pushed the screen in front of Miguel finally playing Shakira's entire life.

As Miguel watched Shakira's life unfold, it all starts with her birth. There in front of him is a beautiful mother and father holding a child which seems to be Shakira. 

''Look at her, babe. Isn't she just beautiful?''

''Yes, she is hermosa.''

''What should we name her?''

''Shakira, Shakira Pizcalli.''

''After the singer?''

''No. My great-grandmother was named Shakira, long before the singer.''

''Hm. I love it! Shakira Pizcalli it is!''

Miguel felt himself chuckle at the sight of Shakira's parents happily holding their daughter in their arms. It reminded him so much of him seeing his daughter in his arms. He kept watching Shakira's life unfold once more. He felt himself raise and eyebrow as he watched Shakira walking away from her father, who was wearing his police uniform. This made Miguel question her outburst towards him earlier today. He kept watching however, Shakira seemed close to her mother and her Italian family, especially her uncle Johnny.

''Uncle Johnny! Watch this!''

''Woah! That's a big splash, kiddo!''

''Wanna see it again?!''

''Knock yourself out!''

''Alright!''

Miguel shook his head chuckling at Shakira's wild childhood. Maybe Shakira was just a cocky kid at heart? However, around the time of high school, she was bullied. She came home to bruises and cuts on her arms and face. It made her mother worry.

''¡Mamá, estoy bien de verdad!'' 

''No, mija! No estas bien! Quien te hizo esto? Dime!''

''Ma, por favor, no te metas!''

''Amor! Por favor ayudame!''

''Shakira, grab your things, we're heading out.''

''Why?''

''Grab your things. Hurry up.''

''Tsk, fine.''
