[X]A Tarantula, big and black with spots of white in its torso and along its legs.
[X]A black spider that has...spikes? Somehow it manages to give it a punkish look.
The two black Arachnids shared some threads, the tarantula easily matching your pace with just a little difficulty, and the black spider taking an .... unorthodox method of travel, jumping from thread to thread and doing some acrobatic movements you didn't think were possible to do, specially for a spider.....
Never mind that, as you get near the center of the thread the other figures dispersed and followed other threads,you could see a dark blue spider .... waving at you? Yes it was waving one of its legs at you while it glided effortlessly through another thread, a little spider followed after with some hesitance, glancing between you, the path the other spider took, and the black spider with some ..... hostility. Yeah, hostility.
And somehow you were capable of easily identify the emotions coming from the spiders ..... what a useless talent.
After that little scene you and the other Arachnids were standing around the center of the golden web, for some reason you just knew something was going to happen Giving an aside glance you could see the big tarantula looking at you in ... Awe?
You really should stop getting surprised by this weird dream.
The tarantula was shifting from side to say and puffing itself up as to appear more ... dignified? You have to say that it was more than a little creepy. The black spider was a little more discreet in its aside glances, but you can see it look away and make some disturbingly happy creaky sounds. Before you could get even More disturbed a big ass spider appeared.
....
What, its true?! It appeared out of nowhere. One moment there was just you three and the next it was just hanging there like it was its home.
Oh dear, it isn't going to eat us is it? With how big it is, it could just swallow the three of you whole without any problem.
...
Oh Dear lord its opening its Maws! Quick, think, what do I do, gotta do something! You have a prodigious brain you might be able to turn the tables here.
"What a big butt."
........
Stupid mouth!!!!
Leaving aside how you can speak despite having the form of a spider, that was not what you intended to do or say, and this just sealed your fate to being devoured by a giant spider thingy. As you resign yourself and pray to whatever deity is listening for deliverance it is here that you hear It chuckle.
"Hah the chosen of the web is a kidder as always, but pleasantries are not what I called you here for."
It says as it repositions itself in the web to a more comfortable position.
You try not to think about how you know that its more comfortable positioned the way it is and rather than that you pay attention to the many other shadows that are appearing around the giant spider. Animals of many kinds, the spiders that were running with you and more of their kind are balanced on thin threads all around the golden web, all obscured in shadow cast by the light that was emanating from the giant spider.
"Many catastrophes are coming, many trials, and many tragedies. To combat them, Heroes are rising and their stories are unfolding."
As it talked, the webs showed scenes, scenes of amazing individuals fighting and bleeding. A man in futuristic armor firing a beam from his chest at the shadows, a man in a blue and red uniform with white stripes holding a shield above his head inspiring those who follow him, and a feral looking man jumping into the fray with metal claws sliding out of his knuckles.
"But there cannot be good without evil. This world is not so kind as to do us that mercy; and the ugliness of the human heart can twist a pious person into the most hated of villains."
You see a man with four metal appendages growing from his back, an uniformed man with a red skull for a head, a laughing green monster, and behind all of them an enormous man in purple armor rising to consume all.
"Without unity, without balance, the human race will perish and be forgotten by the sands of time. That is why I called you, champions of the world. You must fight against the rising darkness, forces beyond your wildest dreams that have in their sights the destruction of the human race.
A black Mist enshrouded the world, a star fell and it became the worlds greatest enemy, and red and black consumed everything.
"And my Champion! Always destined for greatness! I must burden you once again with the weight of the world, but i'm confident that once more you will defy all expectations and forge the happy ending everyone is longing for!"
All the webs showed an Emblem, a black spider over red and blue with dark webs encircling it all, and as the giant spider pointed at you, you felt the attention of all the shadows on your shoulders and you shifted nervously.
"Prepare sons of man, the fate of this universe-Nay of the whole multiverse! Will be decided on this battlefield".
And with that you woke.
-----------------------------------------
The first thing you felt as you woke up were the warm rays of the sun hitting your face. You groggily try to shake out your drowsiness and find that you can recall clearly the dream you had, and you promise yourself not to eat so many doritos before bed again.
Wait.
As memories come rushing back to you of the events of the day before, the urge to just drape the covers around you and never wake up again hits you full force. You were at an excursion to Oscorp, chatting with MJ(a one sided conversation) and geeking out over the the specimens shown.
Then you were bit by a spider.
You briefly contemplate if that dream had more meaning than you thought.......
Nah.
As you take a shower and get out all the kinks in your body you notice something peculiar.You have muscles now, sure they were not THAT big but you now had a more sculpted frame, like a swimmer or a runner.
How did this happen?
As you keep poking and flexing them pecs to confirm they were real, you let your mind wander.
It can't be can it? It's unscientific! It's unreal and it's stupid.
It's also the only explanation you have for the moment.
After putting on some clothes (baggy ones, you don't know how to start explaining to Uncle Ben and Aunt May that out of nowhere you now had the body of an Olympian athlete), you forgo the shoes and try to test your theory.
.....
Five minutes later you were sitting in the roof of your room upside down, using your feet.
Maybe that theory wasnt that stupid?
Anyway you can confirm it, that spider gave you Super Powers.......
Yeah it still sounds crazy to you, anyway you remember that its now Saturday and after seeing what happened yesterday you shouldn't go to classes today anyway.
Now then, what do you do with your now free day?
