While Peter was enjoying his reunion with his girls, the news of his survival reached some people's ears who were after his inplete project.

  Kingpin's body was already broken down. The poison in his body affected his nervous system and bones, corroding them. He searched for mutants with poison abilities and tried to extract the poison, although they succeeded irag some of it, the toxin in his body had already dohe damage and had peed every an in his body. Even his blood became poisonous.

  Regur blood transfusioended his life for a few months, then an rept also helped, but there's only so much a human body endure. He spent a lot of money and precious items in search of cures, but not even one was able to heal the wounds of the corrosion, just stabilized it and slowed down the process of its deterioration.

  Fisk was at his limit and a mere inch away from his immi death. His once big, powerful, and majestic frame, was nothing, but a mere shadow of the body he once was. A dying patient lying on his deathbed was all that remains of Fisk.

  The advanced life support was the only thing keeping him alive. The doctors cluded that Fisk barely had a year of life left before his end. That realization made his blood boil and his mind numb in agony. When faced with his mortality, he fell into the sea of despair and misery, looking forward to his death to free himself of this suffering, this endless cycle of torture.

  Despite his grave dition, Fisk was able to retain his scioushrough sheer willpower. He wao tear apart Osborn, but when he heard that Spiderman and ot caught up in an explosion during their frontation and how they both died, the st bit of strength he could summon was expended in his fit of anger. He failed tle Osborn to death with his bare hands, that's the only regret he had left in his mind at the moment.

  As Fisk was waiting for his death, one of his trusted dave him news of new impnts that might be able to help him extend his lifespan. Acc to the doctor, if they somehow mao get their hands on the plete blueprints of the impnts, or the product itself, they will be able to operate on him and graft his body with the cyberics, preventing any further decay of his body.

  However, Fisk will lose his humanity and bee a cyb and sihe teology is unfinished ahe ce of his survival after the operation would be less thay pert, but sidering his situation, that twenty pert was much better than his nearing end.

  He ordered his men to do whatever was necessary to get their hands on that teology. Then, they tracked dower Parker, only to discover that he got caught up in an act and is now in the Fantastic Four's care. To make things worse, Susan Storm closed Peter's projed hid it somewhere safe.

  Kingpin uood that getting his hands on the impnts would be nearly impossible as long as Sue roteg them. But he didn't give up. He sent many mutants and his veteran people to find it, but the security pced within the Baxter Building was too much for them to handle and they were either caught or killed.

  Finally, when he was at his wit's end and had barely a month or two left to live, the news of Peter Parker waking up reached his ears. He immediately ordered his heo kidnap Peter Parker and bring him in. If they failed to capture Peter, then they were ordered to go after his family, friends, girls anyone close to him.

  "Wesley, failure isn't an option. I couldn't finish Norman, but the one who put me into this state is still roaming out there and it hurts my soul, thinking of leaving without bringing that scum to his knees and tearing him apart, then killing everyohat matters to him. Leave nothing behind of his life. The pain he's inflicted upoen times, no, a huimes more, should be returned ba. But I 't do it in my state. I need Parker's help. Bring me Parker or his family. Do whatever is necessary," Fisk said through the respirator ected to him while speaking into the inter.

  "Yes, boss, just leave this to me," James Wesley answered before leaving the room.

  On his way, James dialed Emma's number, "Miss Frost, capture Peter Parker, alive, without any harm, and bring him to our main base. Failure isn't an option. Do whatever is necessary. You have 1 week."

  After giving his order, he disected the call and called a dozen of Fisk's fi assassins to kidnap Peter's family, friends, and girls. In case, Peter refuses to help them, he just threaten the lives of Peter's loved oo bend him to his will. With the life of his boss at stake, as his right-hand man, James refused to let him die or watch the downfall of the empire he helped to build up from scratch.

  ...

  [Location: Otto Octavius's house]

  After the failed experiment and the sudden power outage, Otto's tentacles got permaly grafted with his spinal cord. He's been trying to remove them and disect them from his spine, but his previous failed attempt to separate his tentacles from his body. Although he 't move his body anymore, the four tentacles on his back act as aension of his body. But the thing is they don't listen to his ands and he has been hearing weird voices in his head.

  The worst part isn't only that.

  When Otto was examining the inhibitor chip on his neck, he noticed that the chip artially damaged and he suffered partial brain damage. He tried to recreate the chip, but the voices in his head sabotaged him.

  They began whispering weird things to him, about trolling the world and helping him reach his true potential. The voice even urged him to trust it and open up.

  To clear his mind, Otto drank alcohol and slept, only to wake hours ter and realize that he slept for one full day. The voices were gone, but the tentacles still refused to listen to his ands. He could tell that he hadn't got much time. He could suppress the voices and his tentacles for a limited time by giving himself EMP shocks, which helps him calm the voices aurn trol over his mind. But the pain was too much.

  He needs a neural impnt, the superior version of his inhibitor chip that Peter was w on before his act to pletely remove the influence of the tentacle in his head. But just like Fisk, he also failed to infiltrate the Baxter Building. He barely escaped after a failed attempt and almost got exposed, that's why his attempt at obtaining that teology was cut short.

  Just like Fisk, Otto is desperate to get a hold of that teology to free his mind from the trol of the metal tentacles. That's when he heard that Peter Parker woke up from his atose state, a ray of light shined upon him. He khat Peter wouldn't be sharing his iions with him and in the past he had also refused to work with him, so, Otto decided to kidnap Peter and force him to create a neural impnt for him and after achieving his goal, he po kill Peter, of course not before t him to death.

  "I'll kill that kid. Yes!" Otto looked at one of his tentacles, "Yes, I know. He is too dangerous to be left alive. But yes... Yes, you are right... Why don't we make him work for us in fi? We also nab his family and force him to work for me. He will i and I'll take them as my own... Brilliant... Amazing..."

  As Otto was talking with one of his tentacles, the voice whispered a differe of ideas and pns in his head. He thought he was in trol, but he didn't even realize that it was his meical arms that were using him as a host to gain back their full trol and autonomy. They were also the reason behind the voice Otto had been hearing and also the ones who phe false idea that his brain was damaged and he needed a neural impnt to stop the voices.

  Otto khat it wouldn't be easy to capture Peter because now that he woke up with the Fantastic Four's help, he might be w with them. This means, there will be tight security around him. He o approach the situation with caution.
