    Summary

    Penelope Parker (AKA Queens' Friendly Neighborhood Arachnid!) is perfectly fine. She's been alone for just over three years, and she's fine, really! She has no friends or family to speak of, mind you, save for Deadpool, if he counts. Her apartment is shit, she's balancing waitressing with selling photos to the Bugle and saving lives nightly as Arachnid, she doesn't talk to any of the other Masks or Capes out there, but she's - really! At least, that's what she says. Then, it all comes crashing down around her ears (Alongside an apartment building...) After a serious injury in a fight with Rhino and Juggernaut, Arachnid discovers that a certain wannabe-Vampire doctor is getting out of DODC jail early, leaving her scrambling to find a solution. With less than two weeks to find a way to contain Doctor Morbius' bloodlust, Penny is forced to start relying on those around her. But can she open up to others after more than three years of hiding away?

    The clock is ticking, Fate is knocking, and Penny's past is catching up. Can our little spider climb fast enough to avoid the rising waters?

    (And what the *hell* is up with the rumors of famously dead Tony Stark sightings at various Mutant and Mask gathering places?!)
