Spiderman Universe X 548 : Face Of Death Chapter 3of 5
Peter opened the door to his hotel recognizing the face of the beautiful girl standing in his doorway. It was Sarah the daughter of his first love Gwen Stacy.
"You gonna let me in or stand there with your mouth open." Sarah asked with a grin.
"Sorry Sarah you look so much like your mother." Peter said letting her in.
"I'm sorry about MJ. How's she doing?" Sarah said taking off her coat.
"She's recovering at St. Mercy Hospital." Peter replied taking Sarah's coat.
"Do you want something to drink? Peter asked as Sarah sat down.
"No thank you Pete." Sara replied taking a folder out of her purse.
"So what reason do you have to come visit your ol Uncle Pete all the way from London.
"Gabriel is dead. The Goblin killed him." Sarah said holding in her tears.
"I'm sorry Sarah." Peter sat not knowing what to say.
"Thats not all. It's all here in this folder. The truth about my mother." Sarah said giving it to Peter.
"What are you talking about?" Peter said looking thru the papers in the folder.
"Who gave you this?" Peter asked.
"The Jackal. He said he was tired of Osborne feeling like he was his surperior, and that it was time for certain things to come to light.
My mother was a clone, Peter. What in the world does that make me?" Sarah said starting to cry.
"It does'nt matter how you came into this world. What Matters is what you do with the life that you are given. Peter said conciling Sarah with a hug.
"If your mother is a clone does that mean Gwen is alive?" Pete asked looking thru the files for more information.
"No, She's gone. The original Gwen Stacy had been back in New York month's before her clone came back to New York. Osborn thru her off the bridge thinking she was my mother. Osborne never knew the truth that she had died back in Paris just like the rest of the Jackal's original clones." Sara said wiping her tears.
"I dont know how to feel about this. Part of me is happy because it restores the memory I had of Gwen, and the other part is angry to see how many lives continue to be manipulated and tortured by people who know me."
"It's not your fault Peter. You try your best to help people. It's just the nature of what you do." Sarah replied.
"There's more to your visit here then what your telling me."
""I'm here for Osborne Peter. I am going to kill him for everything he's done." Sarah said angrily.
"Killing him wont make you feel any better Sarah. Let me handle him, my way." Peter said looking into Sarah's eyes unable to stop thinking of Gwen because of the similarities beetween Sarah and his former lover.
"Your welcome to stay here with Mj and I." Pete said with a smile trying to comfort Sarah.
"First things first though are you sure It was Osborne that killed your brother? Peter asked.
"Who else could it be?" Sarah asked back.
"The person who hurt MJ wasn't Osborne. It was someone else. To tell you the truth I thought it was Gabriel. The only person it could be is Harry Junior but I checked up on him, and hes busy raising his son with Liz.
I can't think of anyone else that would want to do these thing's but it's obvious that Osborne is working with this new Goblin.
'I can't promise I wont get involved Peter." Sarah replied.
"I guess you better help me then, so I can keep a eye on you." Peter replied.
"Good, I brought a suit." Sarah said with a smirk.
"You what?" Peter asked.
"I cant be running around with Spiderman as plain ole Sarah Stacy."
"Okay, Sarah but you need to promise. We do things my way." Peter said assertively.
"I Promise."
Later that evening..
Pete stood above Gwen Stacy's Grave placing a single red rose on her grave.
"I can't tell you Gwen, how long I was mad at you. It was something I just kept bottled up. I could never tell Mary Jane, because she's my wife and I love her. When MJ told me what she thought you did. It was just to much for me to handle. To have you gone and not be able to ask you why you would do that to us. I'm sorry Gwen for ever doubting you. Somehow I always knew in my heart that you would never do anything to hurt me. I'm glad I was right." Pete said walking off.
