CHAPTER 3

TALON LEARNS OF THE SPIDER

FOREST HILLS, QUEENS

Spider-Man lands on the rooftop of an average elderly home in Forest Hills, he was careful not to be seen, that was something he was never good at as Peter Parker, but as Spider-Man, he was always being seen, and that at the moment would be bad for his secret identity, he went into his room through the window, quickly taking off the suit he had customized to act as his uniform until he can finish the one he was working on, putting the suit away he puts on some civilian clothes, while going through his cupboards, he noticed something, something he hadn't needed for a while, he saw the box he kept his web-shooters in, he opened it to find not only the shooters he built, but all the small canisters he kept filled with web fluid, his first real invention.

He lifted up the shooter and aimed it at his ceiling, pushing the button, for it only to squirt, he unloaded the current canister, seeing it was empty, he took it out and snapped a new one in, it locking immediately as he shoots a line out, it then shoots one out from his new organic spinnerets in his hands, seeing how the two were exactly the same, well they weren't, he left both strands there for the same amount of time, to discover that the organic ones lasted for much longer than the chemical ones, it being decided which was better for him, it didn't mean he was going to throw out his shooters, they were still his creation and he was going to keep them, (Who knows, maybe one day I'll meet another spider and they'll need help with these. Huh, like the chances of that happening are likely.)

As Peter thought about this, the revving of a motorcycle riding on the road to where the two had last teamed up was present. Laura wanted to know more about this Spider-Man and how Peter had managed to go unnoticed for so long by Cerebro and the Professor, so she stopped at where she knew he had been recently, the scene where the public announced the return of their city's hero, she looked around until she found what she had been looking for, Parker's Scent, she followed it to where it lead and her learning more about his patterns, while swinging through the city, he stopped to buy a hotdog, one in which she also paid for with extra hot sauce, while eating it, she continued to follow his scent, seeing people cheer on as she did, he made a break through the Brooklyn Bridge, her ignoring all and any forms of traffic laws by driving on the sidewalks, making it to the other side and towards the Queens Borrow.

She was able to quickly pick up Parker's scent once again at a construction site where the NYC Police had just finished with making an arrest. Laura looked for his scent across buildings, she continued her search for him but something else catches her attention, it was the sound of something crashing, multiple things crashing, it was cars, something was coming at them rather quickly and what she saw was truly terrifying as it towered over her, she possessed the ability to see in the dark, otherwise she wouldn't be able to see this monster, it looked like a giant reptile man creature, easily 7ft tall as it towered over her, the creature roared out in the night as its massive frame nearly shook her, but she wasn't scared so easily

SNIKT!

She unsheathed her claws and lunged towards the creature who swept at her with its own clawed fingers, she ducked below it as she drives her claws into its leg, pulling it out, she slashes it with her other arm to the torso, but it quickly slapped her away, sending her flying as she crashes into a car, getting back up like nothing had happened, she rushes it again, as it swipes at her again, she slides in between its giant legs, slashing at its tendons, causing it to fall to its knees as she jumps on its back, stabbing into its shoulders, the toughness of its hard reptilian scales made it hard for her claws to pierce through as easily, but she was still getting through to it, but this creature was much stronger than it looked, jumping back and slamming her through a concrete wall, but still she holds on and using her foot claws to dig into it and hold on at the same time, but the creature was smarter than it looked, using its tail, it grabs her off of it and throws her back into the street before charging at her, grabbing her by the arm in its jaws, lifting her up and throwing her aside once more into another car with its mouth, as her arm heals, it comes at her again, she wasn't sure hoe something so big could be so fast, but that didn't stop her from using her foot claws to slash at its jaw, causing it to hang off one side and it was badly bleeding, getting up, she ducks under a swipe, using her claws to once again slash at its hand, nearly cutting it off again, but all the wounds she had inflicted started to heal, showing off the creature's regenerative abilities, rushing at her with its restored jaw, she dropped on her back driving her foot claw up its neck, causing it to roar in pain, she drags the claw across, slitting its throat, as she performs a cross kick slitting the throat once more.
