  After the escapade with Black Cat, you returned to the lab to continue your work on the serum. Luckily the cops gave up their search, meaning you could return. You were driven and felt that Dr. Kafka, or, Ashely as you now call her, deserved a better chance. So you decided to give it to her.

*Moments later*

  You are fast asleep in her office with a lab coat on and everything. Your goggles keeping your hair pinned back as you feel someone lightly shake you. You lightly look up as you see blond hair. Turning your head you see your blond friend looking down at you.

Y/N: Mmmm, Gwen?

Gwen: You look bad. What happened to you?

Y/N: Working. . . Black Cat. You know, the usual.

  You stand up and lean against the table as Gwen rushes to close your robe, seeing that you still had your Spider Suit on.

Gwen: Dude, are you trying to broadcast your secret identity? I came to get you because we have school today, remember? Your first day back?

Y/N: Yeah, well. . . I'm sorry, I just wanted to help Ashely out.

Gwen: Dr. Kafka?  Yeah Conners told me about her project being shut down. Good to see you're still as sweet as ever to care for her. But we should get to school.

  As you both go to leave, you both bump into Dr. Kafka who was just entering the room. She looked even more tired than usual, her hair was messy. She looked up noticing the two of you as she was a bit surprised. Gwen quickly snatches the goggles off of your head as to not show any sign of your secret identity.

Kafka: What are you two doing? Don't you have school today Gwen? And (Y/N), why are you here do early? Also, what happened to you? 

  She says as she let's out a yawn. You walk over to her.

Y/N: Ashely! I finished it!

Kafka: What?

Gwen: I'll wait outside. Don't take too long (Y/N).

  Gwen waves as you take Ashely to her desk, showing her the vile of red liquid.

Y/N: I did it! I managed to get a stable reaction and found an agent that can meld with organic cellular tissues. Basically, I found a way it can theoretically safely be applied to people and get the desired reaction. I stayed up making sure it was stable and safe. So, it should work.

Kafka: But. .  .W-Why? How is it you managed to.

  You noticed her eyes gleaming with water. She held her hand over her mouth as tears streamed down her face. She lightly began to sob making you worried.

Y/N: 'Did I mess up? Was I not supposed to get involved with this? Man what do I say, I'm not used to women crying in my presence. What do I do, what do I do?' Umm, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-

  She rushes at you, hugging onto you tightly as she cries into your chest. It surprised you for the moment, but you hugged her back as she can't seem to contain her joy.

Ashely: Thank you. Thank you thank you so much.

  She pulls away looking at you.

Ashley: We were right about you. You're amazing. I can't even begin to thank you for this. which leads me to why I wanted to see you before. I want you to work under me as my official assistant.

  You perk up as you hear what she said. You couldn't handle your excitement as you hug her back, picking her up off the ground taking her by surprise. You quickly set her down as you let her down.
