Capítulo 72: Chapter 71
The gauntlets were silver, breaking away from the whole Black and Red colour scheme I had on hand. I knew I had to find a way to hide these in plain sight, so I made it such that they fold into themselves into the size of two large smart phones and be hidden away in the stretching of my bag if need be.
I thought of sticking repulsor to the bottom of my feet as well but they were just too big and clunky. I needed my speed and balance as Spider-man, and sticking two large disks under my feet would throw me off balance. So sadly Spider-man wouldn't be able to fly any time soon.
I then moved onto my mask. While the cloth mask was classic and all that it was also kind of stupid. I was swinging through the city on a rope at near terminal velocity, one mistake and I'm flying towards the ground and if I'm not careful that could mean my head gets split open like a coconut.
So I decided it would be best if I made a helmet instead. It was actually something Johnny helped me with, when it came to things that involved cars he was the best. He helped create a helmet that could be collapsed into half it's size without losing its structural integrity.
I made the helmet smooth and all encompassing. I added the nightvision goggles I stole from Rhino and his crew into it, figured it would be useful later on. I still had a lot of upgrades I could make, but for now this was perfect.
When not in use the helmet would collapse into a face mask that could then expand around my head to form a helmet that fit perfectly. I even made the surface out of alternate hue panels that could change colours on command, so when not is use it would look ordinary, but while I had it turned on, it would become red with black web lines covering its surface.
I was finished working on the costume in the middle of December. I put it up on display in my lab at the Baxter building and sighed, there were so many things I could adat into it, but I would need to be patient, I didn't have the tech yet.
Just then the doors opened up and Sue walked up. "Hey Peter, I wanted to talk about the PB patent, I-" she stopped noticing my suit hanging on the wall. She whistled, "so this is what you and Johnny were working on."
"Yup," I sighed as I checked the gauntlets one more time, collapsing them before turning them back to normal, I really had to be sure they worked when I needed.
"He wasn't kidding, this is ingenious," Sue examined the suit, "you sure Stark won't mind you ripping of his tech?"
I shrugged, "it's not technically his. With the addition of the PB unit it's a completely different machine altogether. The arc reactor might be similar to Stark's, but I don't really think he would sue me over that."
"Whatever you say Pete," Sue said further examining the suit.
"So Sue, did you need something?" I asked.
"Oh, right, it's about the PB patent, I managed to streamline it and people have began to take notice. I kept your name out of the spot light for as long as I could, but if we are going to go public with this you might garner a little attention."
I shrugged, "it's fine. I can handle it. Anything else?"
"No, just sign these," Sue handed me a couple of documents before turning back to the suit, "mind if I take a look at the specs for the suit Peter? It's very...interesting."
"Sure, knock yourself out, you know my terminal's password?" I asked her looking over the patent documents.
"Yup," she quickly began to look through my notes. Sometimes I forget she's as bit the scientist Reed and I are. She is always forced to take up the business side of thing I rarely see her actually behave like a scientist and experimenting with new stuff. But I guess that's life, you don't always get what you want.
Just then my phone buzzed. Curious I picked it up and found a message from an unknown number. I opened it up and read;
Peter,
This is Norman Oborn, Harry's father. I would like to invite you and the rest of the Baxter Foundation to Oscorp's annual Christmas party. I assure you you will regret it if you don't. Many of my notable scientist will be attending and can be a learning experience for you.
You are each allowed to bring one guest to this event. But note this isn't just a party, I will also be using this stage to announce Oscorp's yearly goals for the next year, I'm sure your scientific mind is curious to see the amazing new possibilities my company has to offer.
Please reply with your answer within the week. The party will be held the day before Christmas eve.
Thanking you,
Norman Osborn,
CEO of Oscorp
Man this guy was narcissistic, he mention it was his company and his achievements like five times!
I didn't want to go, obviously I didn't. But...if Osborn's up to something I need to find out what. I told Sue about the invitation and she told me straight off she and the others won't be coming. That man was dangerous and the FF couldn't be seen working with him.
I agreed, but since I wasn't a member of the Fantastic Four I wasn't bound by the same limitations. So I accepted the invite. I had a few days before the party, so until then I could prepare for anything.
Something felt off about this party, and I knew Spider-man would be needed. Hm...maybe I should ask Felicia if she wants to go?
