Chapter 223: Chapter 220
"Pete Parker," I took out my driver's license and handed it to the man. As he put the card through the machine and my name through the client list I looked around. I was wrong, only the outside looked like a resort, the inside was nothing more than a giant hanger.
I looked at myself in the window, I can't believe I'm wearing a tuxedo. I sighed as I adjusted the bow tie, when I told them it was a black tie event dad had insisted I get a new suit. I didn't want to but he insisted. I wanted to at least pay but he refused, said, 'it's a father's job to get his son a suit. If I can't at least do that what good am I?'
It was nothing fancy, just plain and simple. Had a small vest underneath inside of which I hide my web shooters. I don't know why I brought them along, but I just did.
"Alright, you're clear to go through sir," the gaurd came back handing me my license, "just go straight on through and give your car for valle."
"Thanks," I told him as I drove inside. As I came to the entrance I got out and the valle came to take my keys, "no need," I told the man, "Doc, find a place to park."
"Yes Peter," my car's AI replied as it drove itself away towards the nearest parking lot. People looked on in awe, they whispered and a few even tried to take a video but it was too lte, I ignored them and walked inside.
In the middle of the hanger was a giant version of Otto's little project. I gulped, I did not like the look of this. The last time I saw this thing...well, it was in Spider-man 2 and Otto was threatening to blow of the whole of NY.
There were tables everywhere, people everywhere. A lot of fancy dresses, woah, a woman dressed in a very nice red dress just walked pass. Her ass looked firm enough to break a tooth on. Damn...moving on.
I looked around, there were reporters there, people of interest, and I swear I saw a few people that looked like security. Was Norman expecting trouble?
Just then I heard a voice call out, "Peter!" I turned to see Otto and Rosey walk up to me with smiles on their faces, "I was notified the moment you arrived! It is so good to see you!"
I gave a smile in return, "Otto, Rosey, it's nice to see you both again."
"Indeed it is my young friend," Otto and I shook hands, "it is thanks to you my project even got to this stage in the first place after all."
"Please, you give me too much credit," I chuckled.
"And you don't give yourself enough," Otto nodded, "your technology is in fact what allowed me to complete this in the first place."
"Really? What do you mean?"
"Parker blood," Rosey clarified, "we used it to control the energy transfer. Without it, well, one can only imagine what could happen."
"Ah, we aren't going to have another repeat of last time are we?" I asked as gently as I could.
"Oh no, rest assured, I made sure nothing will go wrong this time," Otto smiled before leaning in, "and just to be sure I had a thrid party look it over as well. Everything will be fine."
"Glad to hear it," I smile, "because I'm really not looking forward to being black hole food today."
Otto gave a hearty laugh, "ah your jokes never seize to amuse me Peter. Now, I'm sorry but we really must go, Norman insists we continue socialising with these...people," he grumbled.
Rosey laughed, "forgive him, he is not used to talking with people below his IQ."
I shrugged, "believe me, I know what he's going through."
Rosey smiled, "until then Peter," she waved to me as they walked away. I looked around, so many people, all going out of there way to socialize. I didn't see anyone I recognized, good, last thing I need if a run in with Harry or Flash like last time.
I waved through the crowds, people had drinks in their hands, food. Chatting, I heard a few keywords like 'Avengers', 'SHIELD', and of course 'Latveria'.
I didn't think much of it. I found the bar pretty quickly, I ordered a coke, I was going to be driving home today. As I sipped my drink though a woman came up to me and sat down next to me.
"Vodka, with vanilla," she smiled. I looked at her, pretty face, blonde hair, older, mayber thrity? She looked fit, a gymnast maybe?
"You really shouldn't stare," she said.
"You had all these open seats lined up for you, yet you chose to come sit next to me," I replied back.
"Doesn't mean I wanted you to stare."
"So just a quick peek?" I asked.
She turned to me, looked me over. She took her drink, "sorry, you're too young for me."
