Peter reacted quickly, darting back under the blanket. Only a small corner of it lifted slightly, angled toward the doorway.
Creak—
With a faint sound of the door opening, a petite figure squeezed inside.
When Peter saw who it was, his eyes snapped open wide.
It was Betty!
Wait—Is this Betty's room?Then why on earth was he in Betty's room?
And… on her bed?!
After stepping inside, Betty cautiously peeked out into the hallway, then carefully closed the door.
She approached the bed and gently patted the blanket.
"Peter?"
Peter poked his head out from under the covers.
Betty leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the lips. Then, lying there in front of him, she whispered shyly, "You should go now. It's getting late. We shouldn't be doing this—I mean, it's too early for… things like this."
Peter: "?"
He crawled out of the blanket in a daze, looked down at his own body—and his face changed dramatically.
He wasn't wearing clothes!
Could it be that…
At that moment, Betty—face red—put a few pieces of clothing and pants by the bedside and turned around.
"Hurry and put them on. They're already dried."
Realization hit Peter. So that's why his clothes were with Betty—Wait, no, that's an even bigger problem!
So… during the few hours he had left for universe Earth-92131, what exactly had happened?!
Why had his body come to Betty's house on its own—Wait!
A spark flashed in Peter's mind.
His body moving on its own!
That overwhelming sense of déjà vu reminded him of one particular thing.
In universe Earth-92131, the '94 Spider-Man had once been secretly infiltrated by that thing.
And it happened while he was asleep!
That day, he had a dream—He saw a massive black figure battling the Spider-Man suit across the city.
They were fighting over Peter Parker.
In the end, the black figure gained the upper hand, seized Peter Parker, and swallowed him whole.
When the nightmare ended, the '94 Spider-Man awoke hanging upside down in downtown Manhattan—wearing a black suit.
The Venom suit!
Could it be that his world also had a Venom symbiote?
And it had silently targeted him?
As Peter pulled on his clothes, his expression grew increasingly serious.
He failed to notice the girl who had "turned around" was actually sneaking glances at him.
"Wow… Peter's muscles look so strong and powerful…"
Only after Peter was fully dressed did Betty reluctantly turn back around.
Peter stood there, frozen, which Betty misunderstood as him being reluctant to leave.
She stepped up to him, hooked her arms around his neck, and moved her shy, pretty face toward his.
Their noses touched. Their lips were so close they could almost feel each other's warmth.The ambiguous air flowed between them in a strange, intimate loop.
"Peter… our relationship is developing a bit too fast, we—"
Chuu.
Peter tilted his head and lightly pecked her soft pink lips. "I'm sorry, Betty. I hope I didn't scare you."
"It was pretty shocking… I didn't expect you to actually be Spider-Man." Betty pouted, as though hinting he should kiss her again.
Peter: "Huh?!"
This time Peter was truly stunned.
Even that identity had been exposed?
A sense of urgency surged in his chest.
Whether it was a Venom symbiote or something else entirely—if he didn't pinpoint the problem soon, things would spiral far beyond control.
"Betty, can you tell me how I ended up here?" Peter asked.
Betty tilted her head, puzzled.
But her sharp intuition told her that something must have happened to her boyfriend, so she didn't hide anything and repeated what she knew.
Peter had arrived about an hour ago.
At the time, he was wearing a black suit, looking a little disheveled—as if he had just been fished out of water, completely soaked.
Though the color was different, the design was almost identical to the Spider-Man suit.
So Betty recognized him at once.
This was Spider-Man!A black Spider-Man!
But what shocked her even more was when the black suit peeled away by itself, revealing the face underneath—
Her boyfriend, Peter Parker!
(After their… close interaction during the school festival, their relationship had heated up quickly. Though neither had officially stated it, Betty already considered Peter her boyfriend. At the very least, a boyfriend-in-progress.)
Betty was shocked that Peter arrived as Spider-Man.
But when she asked what had happened, Peter didn't say a word.
So she brought him a towel and a hair dryer, and asked him to take off his clothes so she could dry them.
From Betty's perspective, aside from the shock of Peter being Spider-Man, nothing else seemed unusual.
But from Peter's perspective… there were several key points.
First—
The black suit!
That alone basically confirmed it.During the time his consciousness had left his body and traveled to universe Earth-92131, the thing controlling his body was the Venom symbiote!
He didn't know where the symbiote came from, or why his world had one too, but his guard was now fully raised.
From the experiences of every Spider-Man who had been possessed by a symbiote, one thing was clear:
This thing was absolutely bad news.
Yes, it strengthened the host and made him more powerful—but the side effects were enormous.
In universe Earth-96283, the Bully Spider-Man—at first only wanted the paycheck he deserved, bought a suit, danced on the street, took over a bar, flirted with a few girls—but the longer it went on, the more wrong he became.
He and Harry Osborn had a strained relationship, sure, but Peter—who had once merged with the bully version—knew how deeply Bully Spider-Man cared about Harry. As a brother.
And he was a good person—so kind he even forgave Sandman, who had accidentally killed Uncle Ben.
So how could he possibly have done something as cruel as throwing a bomb at Harry's face?
And what about Mary Jane in that world?
If it were the normal bully Spider-Man, how could he have brought Gwen to humiliate Mary Jane?
He even hurt MJ, caused chaos in the bar, and beat up several bartenders!
In universe Earth-92131, the '94 Spider-Man also displayed numerous strange behaviors while possessed by the symbiote—
Flirting with Felicia, snapping at Aunt May, and even nearly killing Rhino.
