A robotic being goes into an office and addresses his leader.
"Mr. Lieber... Weldon Gray has arrived." said the Cyber-Tech, a being who used to be an alternate reality version of Peter Parker's best friend Dave Harrison.
The Alchemax CEO turns his chair around and looks at him.
"Bring him in, Cyber-Tech." said the CEO.
The Cyber-Tech bows and allows Gray to come in.
"Ah, Mr. Lieber. Good to see you." said Gray.
"Likewise, Mr. Gray." said the CEO. "I wanted to ask you something about the company you head... Oscorp. Do you have cloning equipment in there?"
"Well, yes, but we haven't used it yet." said Gray. "What is your plan."
"First, I want to set a trap for Peter Parker. I want to make sure he doesn't interfere. I'll have one of my people offer him and his current girlfriend a job here at Alchemax. Then, once Parker is out of the way... I shall take a blood sample from the girl. Then, I will use your equipment to create a clone." said the CEO. "Also, I need to capture Spider-Gwen... I also need her DNA sample to analyze and for the cloning process."
"I'll deal with Spider-Gwen, Mr. Lieber." said Cyber-Tech as he took off.
"You have a very loyal warrior there." said Gray.
"He is the only person that has stuck with me... ever since we were children. He suffered an accident, and I had to save his life somehow." said the CEO.

"Well, if you didn't let Tyler Stone get away with trying to murder me for the whole Asgard thing...I might have stuck around." A guard spoke, smiling as his face went green. "Hiya Boss...miss me?" The figure morphed into a lanky, green skinned man with nails that looked like they could slice a man. "I am sure you know me better as Jordan Boone, but I ain't your Loki anymore." He smiled. "Oh...and..." He took off a name tag. "Send a basket to Jeff's foplks here. He came down with blowfish poisoning." He said hinting at the coating on said nails. "Don't freak, not here for blood....well...yours."
He walked over. "I kinda have a business offer for ya. Mutual enemies wound up here. Including...the President. Kinda had a close shave with our duly appointed Minister of Punishment. You know...the guy who laid out Kron before he became Venom."

"Doom and Gallows... blast." said the CEO, not hiding his frustration at the news that Jordan gave him. "We can't allow them to rule. It would foil all our plans and ban our experiments." He then thought for a moment, contemplating this. "If our Doom is here... he must be allied with the one from this current timeframe." said the CEO. He then headed toward a canister, opened it and grabbed a microscopic spider robot. "These microbots will be our salvation... they can be used as spies and to build anything we need." said the CEO as he held the incredibly tiny robotic spider. "With just one of these, we can eavesdrop on Doom and he won't suspect a thing." He then tossed a few microbots to the floor and they start building something. A laser pistol. They finish after a few seconds. "Handy little bugs." said Gray.

"Oh put those toys away. Why do you think I came here today?" Jack literally climbed onto a chair and sat like a cat. "Guess who i am wo-rking with?" He said as he began to spin it mirthfully. "I'll give you a guess. What is Free in name but not in fact?" He paused. "Wait, that wasn't your foe...that was someone else's." Jordan made a face. "Ahh fuck it...I work with the Free Radicals now, you remember them? Best little group of anarchists money could buy?"
He kept spinning. "Well after they kinda helped Henri Huang overthrow my little raid on Vegas Pre Doom...I kinda tracked down Billy Zedd, wanting to gut the little shit. But then we came here...and they got it in their heads to help forge a better tomorrow...with fire. Since that spoke to me, I forgave him and...here we are. And it's not JUST Doom. By now...the entire governing body is here, save for Tyler. I here he is scouting for a Minister of Finance and...Norman Osborn seemed interested." He stopped spinning and looked at him. "We can't afford the Cabinet gaining ground. Especially in YOUR circles." He pointed. "Especially...since the Night Cat came too."

Hmmmmm... maybe we could make a deal." said the CEO. "Wait, Osborn is out of Ravencroft? Last time I heard, he was being kept there for his own safety... hence why I became CEO of Oscorp." said Gray. "This is rather distressing indeed." said the CEO before turning to Jordan. "Tell me... what are the current whereabouts of the Night Cat?"

"Ravencroft...haven't you heard? That place is a MESS. And yeah, he is out and talking with Gypsy Boy. Maybe some guy called Gideon too. Dunno him, heard something about immortals." Jack shrugged. "But yeah, your info net has whale sized holes. As for her...she kicked me in the face in the Bronx about a week ago. Quite nimble for her age." He rubbed his face.

"Holes in the net like these are inevitable, Halloween Jack. The technology in this timeframe is still rather primitive compared to what we had." said the CEO. "So... she is in the Bronx. Well, I might sent the Techno Gang to hunt her down. They might succeed where regular troops failed."

"Shouldn't you be more used to it than most?" Jack got up. "If he fails...we won't." He looked at him. "I hope Tyler funded his design well enough. It would be a pain if your buddy suffered because he was being cheap. Night Cat was a fine specimen herself, don't forget." Jack said as he shifted into Jordan Boone. "I'll go and join him as an observer. If he needs my help...I'll help."

"I'll go and join him as an observer. If he needs my help...I'll help." "Oh, yes... however, I sent him to track down Spider-Gwen first. I need her for testing. I want to see how Moon managed to replicate Gwen perfectly. Same mannerisms, same personality... I must know." said the CEO. "After that, you can both hunt down the Night Cat." He then thought a bit. "I just hope Peter Parker and Joyce Delaney get a call any time soon." said the CEO. "I have set a trap for them."

"Is it so easy though? To ignore your clone...there seems to be a collection of Spiders here. Other Spider-Men from space and time...seems to be a push from the guy who made all this possible. And never rule out him butting in, after all...he and his foe want this to be fun. If he feels you are spoiling a playing piece...well...that could be bad." Jack said to the CEO. "It's one of the factors that lead me to come here to help rather than hinder. I think Grandmaster favors interesting. A script flip." He pointed. "You need to start doing it like that My Man. Think dynamically. Because if you get boring...boom. Divine intervention from the space rock people and fat TV alien...or have you not met Mojo yet?"

"I don't think these higher powers will mind if I up the stakes a bit on the Web Warriors' part. It might make things much more intense. After all, the reason why I plan the call to Parker and Delaney is so that the clones and alternate reality dupes don't interfere. They will all think it's just a job interview." said the CEO. "All I want... is to have Gwen back." He then looked aside. "And my Techno-Gang will deliver me the clone of Gwen without any problem. I have given them a special teleportation ray that will send Spider-Gwen here." said the CEO. "The ray is designed to be untraceable, so to avoid any interference. If the Web Warriors are at disarray due to some members being missing, doesn't that make the fights much more intriguing due to the emotional turmoil they have?"

"Just don't read them wrong. Would be sucky if you feel for all the master planner tropes." Boone smiled. "You made me into a Loki, I tend to think of the radical as viable for it." He spun around. "After all...how many of HIM walk this earth too?"

"After all...how many of HIM walk this earth too?" (Just to tie this to the Painful Secrets thread) "There is the normal one and the young Avenger." said the CEO. Suddenly, something teleports in. "Wha... where am I?" said Spider-Gwen as she had been teleported. "Your new home." said the CEO. Gwen looked at him and was shocked. The way he walked, his mannerisms... she recognized them. She walked back a bit, afraid. "I must analyze you..." said the CEO. "NO!!! PLEASE!!! NO MORE EXPERIMENTS!!! PLEASE!!!" begged Spider-Gwen, falling to her knees. She started crying. The CEO's expression softened. He seemed... saddened. He knelt down and held Spider-Gwen. "You truly are Gwen... only she would have recognized Peter Parker despite having a different face and looking older... I don't want to do this... but I must see what Moon did to you... and how he did it." said the CEO. He then grabbed her and carried her to the lab. She didn't show any resistance. She just... cried. She was still having memory flashes. In her head, she could still hear the Goblin laughing, Peter telling her that he wouldn't give the suit up and her father's funeral. She had punched Peter a bit, venting her anger before Ben Reilly stopped her, so she didn't know whether she should vent on this one. The CEO then restrains her into an operating table and uses a rather futuristic looking DNA scanner. "Incredible... age acceleration. However, it's quite unstable. Life lasts only a few days before the aging kicks in. But there is a sort of serum keeping her alive." said the CEO. "I must keep this in mind when I revive Gwen... I don't want her to die in a few days like you would." Spider-Gwen teared up as she heard that. Now she felt even more like a freak. The CEO just stroked her face. "Don't cry... I will save you... this time... I won't let anything get between us. I..." said the CEO before starting to break up. "I can't stand for this... Moon made you to be expendable... you shouldn't be that... you are... were... a wonderful person..." Apparently, figuring out that Spider-Gwen only lasted seven days without injections made him feel sadness. Despite all the ruthlessness and obsession, this man was still Peter Parker and deeply in love with Gwen, and seeing her as a disposable clone who could last only a few days was painful.

Jordan Boone tensed up, just a a retractable cable wrapped around him. "SHE'S H*THWACK!!*
"Goodnight Jordan." A dark haired woman turned to the CEO and sneered. "Let her go, or else it gets ugly in here." Claws popped out of her gloves as Night Cat 2099 stood there. "How far have you fallen?" She let out something of a snarl as she stood there.
As she said that a Spider-Man resembling 2099 in some fashion, though more red popped in. "So...you're what if this Spider-Man broke bad? Neat." He touched down and raised his shooter. "Let the girl go and I won't make you kiss desk."

"Let the girl go and I won't make you kiss desk." "NO!!! DON'T HURT HIM!!!" said Spider-Gwen with sadness. The CEO took a blood sample and released her. Spider-Gwen then looked at Night Cat 2099. "Just me being here was enough to wound him..." said Spider-Gwen as she looked at the CEO, totally broken. The CEO looked at her. "Please... all I want... is to have you again..." said the CEO. "My project to bring you back is the only thing keeping me alive." Spider-Gwen then stroked his hair and cried. "I knew you would never harm me... but just my presence was able to cripple you... however, I do hope that you understand something... I don't care how many times we'll meet as enemies later on... or how much you have tried to be someone else and erase your own existence... you still are Peter Parker... and despite all, I know that eventually, you'll make the right decision." said Gwen with sadness. She then turned and walked away through the door. The CEO just sat on the floor, crying. Gwen was right. He would never harm her, but he could easily be harmed by her. As Gwen walked out, she cried. She hated being the source of so much pain. Just her existence was hurting other people. She touches her pocket and notices that the syringe with the serum is not there. Maybe it's better this way. She then thought back to when she had her tantrum and started hurting Peter. Why was she harming everyone?
