A Cat and A Spider

Part 2

Selina and Peter are in the kitchen of Selina's apartment. Selina tries to figure out more about Peter and why the mysterious older women drop him off at her front doorstep, but more importantly, what did he mean she is his guardian? Selina gives Peter a full bag of chocolate chip cookies from her pantry, and he starts to gulp them up.

"I did not know my day would start like this," Selina thought as she sat at the other end of the kitchen table watching Peter eat her cookies "time some question out of the way,"

Peter finishing up the cookies "thanks for the cookies Mrs,"

"No problem now can tell me where you or use to live?" said Selina

"New York City,"

"Then how come you're in Gotham?"

"The lady with red glasses says I'm supposed to be living with you,"

"That bitch," Selina thought and then said, "where are you parents, Peter?"

Peter had a sad and depressing look "my mom and dad are dead,"

"I'm sorry but do you know anyone else in New York that might take care of you,"

Peter shook his head no as he looked like he was about to cry at any moment.

"Alright, it seems that Peter doesn't have any other relatives in New York," Selina thought as she got up and handed Peter a box of tissues for him to cry in "all right then, where were you before the old men in red glasses took you?"

"She took me from the foster care, but I saw some things behind her,"

"And what were they?"

"they looked like webs and some pictures in the webs," Peter wipes his tears into some tissue

"..okay," Selina then thought "he must have been imagining things when she took him,"

"So, what happens now, Mrs?"

"Its Selina and for now why don't you watch Tv,"

Peter gets up from the kitchen table and heads to the dining room. He turns on Tv and changes the channels to a cartoon show. Selina gets up and heads to her room with thoughts running through her head about the situation herself in and wondering what she is going to happen next.

"Why did have to make deal with that old women now what am I going to do with an orphan boy," Selina as sat down on her bed "I could just take him to Gotham orphanage, but that place would sure turn that kid into another psycho for Gotham or scar him for the rest of his life,"

Selina looks at a phone number on her nightstand. "I could call him and ask him what to do with the kid or let him take the kid?"

Then Selina's cell phone rings, she sees an unknown number, Selina grabs the phone from her pocket and answers the call, "Hello, who is this?"

"Selina how little Peter doing?" said the caller and Selina recognize the voice

"It's you the women from the rooftops yesterday,"

"Yes, but it's best you call me Mrs.W from now,"

"Fine then, Mrs.W, since you want to go by that name. what's with the kid and why you sent him to my place,"

"I sent him to you because I know you will take full care of him and that what he learns from you will benefit the world,"

"It's sound like you been smoking something if you think he learns something from me that benefit the world,"

"But you're wrong but don't worry you'll know what I mean in a few years,"

Selina sighs "you could have taken the kid to some other hero that would teach him better then I would like Superman,"

"Yes but I think you're the right person for the job and Peter would look up to you for guidance and some motherly help,"

"And what about you?"

"Don't worry Selina I'll help any way I can with young Parker besides then more to him then you know right now,"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"You'll soon find out,"

"I swear you are smiling on the other end,"

"Goodbye, Selina," Mrs.W hangs up the phone

Selina rubs the temples beside her head and groans a little "it's fine all I have to do is take care of this kid for a few days until I find him someone who better suited to take care of him than me," Selina thought

Selina gets up from her bed and goes back to the living room where Peter changes the channels to a science fiction show, and she stands in front of the Tv.

"Looks like we are going to be living together kid I guess I'm your guardian for now," said Selina

"Okay Selina," said Peter

"Since your going to be living with me there are going to a few grounds rules one is don't cause any major mess in the apartment if you do you better clean it up, secondly do not let anyone in my house without my knowledge that the most important rule got it,"

Peter nod yes

"At least the kid isn't a brat," Selina thought

Selina went on with her rules that Peter listened to very well. After that, Peter's stomach started to grumble again.

"Can we have lunch Selina?" said Peter

"Sure kid what do you want?" said Selina

Peter smile "pepperoni pizza,"

"All right, I'll get pizza for both of us you just stay here and behave,"

Selina changes into some casual clothes and left the apartment "I think this whole guardian thing is going to be easy and besides I can scope out the museum while I'm out," Selina thought

As Selina left, Peter looked around to see if anyone else was in the apartment. He goes close to the apartment wall and starts to climb on it until he reaches onto the ceiling of the apartment.

"I wonder what Selina will think about my superpower. I hope she does not think I'm a monster," Peter thought as he watches Tv from the ceiling.
