Snow

Part 2

Peter woke up suddenly. He sat up and the room spun. Sunlight streamed through the window blinds and Peter instantly knew he over slept. Doc Ock could have done anything with his blood by now.

You shuffled in your sleep and pressed your head into his chest. His heart constricted an how soft and vulnerable you looked. You trusted him completely and Peter never felt he deserved it. He hated to wake you but gently shook your shoulder.

"Peter," you said groggily. You rubbed your eyes. They felt heavy and swollen from crying. The night before finally connected and flooded your mind. You grabbed Peter tightly around the waist. Your heart pounded in fear.

"Its okay, baby. You're okay," Peter said softly. "I hate to do this, but I have to stop Doc Ock. Who knows what he could do with my blood?"

"Oh, okay. I understand," you said letting him go. Peter slowly stood and grabbed his Spider-Man outfit to pull it on. You turned as he shrugged off his sweats and put it on. Peter looked at his phone furiously.

"I don't know if it's good or bad that there's no news," he said running a hand through his hair. You could see his mind moving fast.

"I hope that's good news. Maybe Mr Stark can help you," you suggested standing up. Peter scowled.

"I can talk to him if I need to. I'm going to go back to the scene for clues. Are you okay? Do you need to stay with aunt May?" Peter asked knowing your family wasn't close by. You shook your head.

"Peter, be safe," you said holding his face. He smiled softly. "I'll be waiting."

"O-Okay," he said wrapping his arms around your waist. "I'll be fine." Peter kissed you softly. He pulled away and grabbed his mask.

"I'll be back later. Just- just be safe, okay?" Peter said climbing out the window. You heart pounded but you nodded.

Peter swung across the city. Thank God Mr Stark put a heater in the suit as snow frosted everything. It made it hard for the web's to stick and a few times Peter slipped and had to shoot another web to catch himself.

He arrived at the top of the building Doc Ock had held you. Other than a few pricks in the metal from his claws, it was hard to tell anything happened.

"Karen, analyze the scene," Peter said.

"Activating Dronie." The small bug flew around the roof scanning everything. "Blood is detected. Analyzing DNA. From Peter Parker. It is your blood, Peter."

"The blood spilled?" Peter asked softly. His whole body relaxed. How much blood? "Doc Ock has 4 extra arms and can't catch my throw."

"It is approximately 4 ml in volume."

"How much is in a blood vial?"

"10 ml in the standard blood vial."

"Crap. That's less than half. How much blood is needed to test?"

"Most tests take 1 to 2.5 ml. A standard vial of 10 ml can easily be taken for standard testing according to American Medical Association," Karen said.

"If he has all 6 ml not lost... he could do so many tests. I hate to do it, but I need Mr Stark's help. Call Tony Stark," Peter said resigned.

"Pete, I don't really have time for this. I'm a little busy planning a wedding," Tony answered.

"Its important. Its about Doc Ock."

"Meet me at the tower in 20."

Peter paced the entry of the first floor. He had gotten to the building in 6 minutes. He wanted to pull off the mask but was waiting until Tony got there and they went somewhere private.
