SpiderMan's Daughter Book Three

Making Plans

Rachel POV
I stopped and turned to Cedar. "Bonjour mon petite araignée." Cedar purred. I wrapped him in a hug. He slicked back his fur and handed me flowers.

"I've missed you so much!!" He purred and kissed me on the cheek. "I am sorry. Fury has had me doing assignments to find more mutants." He said, taking one hand off of me but hanging his left hand over my shoulders.

"You. You are beautiful." I heard The Hound whisper. The Hooktress looked taken aback. "I....you're a dog!" She said, shocked.

He looked hurt, curling into himself, his tail between his legs. "No. I mean....it's cute." She stuttered. "You don't mean that." He growled.

"No. I do. I was just shocked at first. That's all!" She argued. "Wow. Talk about Beauty and The Beast." I heard Lana laugh.

We all instinctively looked down at her before laughing. "Just calling it as I see it." She grinned. She climbed off the table.

"Now could you get me my suit so I can stop wearing this stupid outfit?" She asked. "I only have the one."

We all walked towards the "create a costume" machine and Lana set to work. When she was done, she had black high heeled boots with a faded blue jumpsuit that had white piping.

"That's much better." She laughed, grabbing it from the machine. She slipped it on as we all left and followed us into the main room.

We all stood around, Nytemare and SilverMist refusing to take their hands off each other. The Hooktress and The Hound were talking and Cedar was holding my hand. Lana looked a little awkward.

"Alright. We need everyone's help." Lana said suddenly, jarring everyone out of their loved ones. (Author:That's what she said) "Right. We're going to take over this facility for ourselves without Fury knowing. We need all the help we can get." SilverMist chimed in.

"How will we do that without him knowing? He's the one that owns this base." Nytemare said. "We need to make him think that I've surrendered it back to him." SilverMist said.

"Okay. Can I chime in with a plan?" Lana asked. "Well, you are the supercomputer." SilverMist said back. "Okay. SilverMist, you will go meet with Fury. Rachel and I will stay here and see what mutants we have. Nytemare and Cedar is it?" Lana asked. "Oui" Cedar responded.

"See if you can talk to some mutants in Fury's camp without him knowing. But only the mutants you trust will help us. The Hound and Hooktress? Go on a date. Just kidding. See if you can figure out what hidden rooms there are in this place." Lana laughed.

The Hound growled at her, flattening his ears. "What about me?" I heard someone asked. I turned, expecting to see Kimberly, but in the door stood ScarletStar.

I looked at everyone and thought. "Why don't you go to the basement and sniff out all of the traps and make a map? That way we can hopefully use the arena in the future." Lana responded before I could.

Or you could go back to your room...she can control her powers now. She's fine. Trust me.

I looked at SilverMist and nodded. "Yeah. And if you need something, sound the alarm on the elevator." I said with a smile. "But whatever you do, anyone, do not mention that we have Lana."

We all spread out, Lana following me.
