Chapter 192: Chapter 189
It took me a week to get everything ready. I rented a cabin near Montauk where I could recover in private. If this process effected me the same way as when Drew's powers came to me, then I'll be out of commision for at least two days.
I quickly spun my lies. I told May and Ben that I would be going with Sue for the weekend to a special talk on nanomachines in Germany. It took some convincing but they agreed. To Richard, Sue, Johnny and everyone else who knew my secret identity, I told them that SHIELD had me on a mission. They didn't ask after that.
And finally to SHIELD, I told them the truth. I needed a ucking vacation, Nat seemed suspcious at first, but after a while she seemed to accept it.
I'm guessing she found out about the cabin I booked for the weekend and decided I was telling the truth. She did warn me not to cheat on Felicia, she thought I was going to hook up with some other chick in the cabin. I promised her if I was ever going to cheat with anyone, Nat would be the first one I would ask. She did not like that.
Finally, everything was ready, I had the irradiated gas prepared and in a metal box. I drove up to Montauk on Friday and waited until nightfall to begin. I made sure everything was ready before I took out a gas mask connected to the cannister of gas and turned it on.
I breathed in the fumes quickly before it quickly got empty. I put the gas away and lied down on my bed. I felt the sweats coming on, I could feel it slowly creep out. I turned on the AC and reacthed for a bottle of water I had prepared beforehand. Soon I was out like a light.
The next day:
I woke up half expecting myself to have grown two extra arms. Don't ask me why, it was just a nasty dream I had in my mind. I looked down, no visible changes, haven't begun to grow fur or anything else...yet.
I threw off the sheets, they were covered with my sweat. I blinked, the sweat...it glowed...hm. I opened my bag and took out a geiger counter, something I brought just in case. I placed the counter over the sheets and found mild amounts of radiation, strange, I never sweated radiation before.
It must be a result of the gas. Yes, that makes sense, any radiation my body couldn't absorb it expunged. Meaning my sweat right now is covered with radiation, I need to get rid of it, and fast.
I took off the sheets and my clothes throwing them into the tub in the cabin. Plugging the drain I filled the tub with water and began scrubbing off all the sweat and dirt.
Soon the sheets and clothes were clean, I dried them off separately and found the radiation down to manageable levels, now all I had to do was fill the radiation infused water in smaller water bottles and trash bags and I was done. I would put these things in a landfill later, there was one a few miles away from the city, should be perfect.
After that I gave myself a nice long shower. There wasn't any radiation on me, so I wouldn't need to drain this water separately as well, so I just relaxed into the tub and sighed in relief, I didn't die, joy.
I got out of the tub and drained away the water. I put a towel around my hip and looked at myself in the mirror, wiping away the mist that had formed on its surface.
My face looked back at me, I didn't look any different, I had searched my body for any physical changes but none stood out to me. I looked at my hands, they felt heavy, like they were made out of lead, I don't know….maybe I had to wait before I could see any results?
I looked at myself once again and for a moment I saw a flash of blue in the brown of my eyes, the exact same shade I saw Magneto had. But it didn't stay, it was almost like the colour was active only for a second before vanishing. Strange.
I sighed, I needed to figure out what Magneto's genes did to me, lucky for me I had two days to just that.
I quickly got dressed and sat down before the small lab I set up in the living room of the cabin. I took out a sample of my blood and put it under the microscope I had taken from the Baxter building. I found the sample to be identical to the test sample I took in the lab. Good, no surprises so far.
But...wait...what is...oh shit.
My cells were reforming, but that can't happen unless...the radiation, it's hurting them. I couldn't believe it, did something go wrong? Was forcing additional powers into my body pushing back on Richard and Mary Parker's original formula in some way?
I began running some test and to my surprise I found that something had changed.
I seemed project Mutant Spider isn't going to make me a power hungry monster like Parasite from the Superman comics. Because if I'm reading this right, it seems that the puncturing and addition of powers is causing harm to my cells.
