Spider Quinn 19 Making the News Amidst the Storms Part 10
Dec. 12th, 2025 06:06 pm“Why wouldn’t I?” Anders asked as she allowed Fields in. “Your boss has ruined my career! Interviewing SpiderGirl was going to be a stepping stone, but now it’s a stumbling block.”
“I guess that’s one reason why I’m here.”
“Why did he send you?”
“He didn’t tell me,” Fields answered as they arrived in the kitchen.
“Figures,” Anders said as she picked up a wine glass from the cupboard. “You want some?” she asked as she lifted the bottle, which Fields recognised was from a local vineyard.
Fields shook her head. “I’m working.”
“Of course,” Anders said as she took a sip.
“I think you have had enough.”
“You can’t tell me what to do!”
“I feel guilty too!” Fields said. “But I’m not crawling into a bottle!”
“I’m not you!”
“No, but drinking yourself silly isn’t the way to deal with your situation. Osborn may have come up with a way salvage your situation.”
Anders took a swig and grimaced as she did so. “So, I would be in even more debt to him? You don’t sound like you believe him.”
“I know, but I also need this Oscorp job. I don’t want to go back to New York to live with my parents as I search for another job. Besides I have settled into Lawndale.”
Anders was quiet and was starring at her glass.

Spider Quinn 19 Making the News Amidst the Storms Part 9
Dec. 5th, 2025 09:01 pmDaria then made her play. “I have compiled newspaper reports of SpiderGirl’s activities from November, through to just before Groundhog Day. There are also excerpts from interviews I have conducted with some of Lawndale High’s seniors over the past few weeks. They paint a picture of a rather confident young lady who isn’t afraid to talk to people. What I saw when I watched last night’s interview was not that.” She handed a binder over to Leonard. “These are copies of many of those articles, including of the report covering the time she and Ninja Talon responded to a thief in the Mall.”
“Thanks, Ms. Morgendorffer,” Leonard said as he leafed through the binder.
“And that’s my mother’s impression,” Tori added.
“Jericho. You’re Penelope’s daughter, aren’t you?” Leonard asked.
“That’s right,” Tori said. “And I will tell her everything.”
‘That’s what I expected,’ Helen thought.
Leonard took the binder from Daria, and skimmed it. “I see.”
“So, you see that this is not the hysterical outburst of a few teens who only thought that they saw something wrong,” Helen said.
Twenty minutes went by, as Leonard looked through the evidence the Morgendorffers and the others had brought. Anders was stressing the entire time. ‘Anders’ didn’t expect something like this to occur,’ Daria thought.
“I see from the Mall incident that SpiderGirl was confident when she said that she and Ninja Talon were colleagues rather than rivals,” Leonard said. “That can easily be corroborated.”
“I would think so,” Brittany commented.
“But that will take time,” Leonard said.
“I expect that it will,” her mother said.
“I have examined enough,” Leonard said.
“Meaning?” Helen asked.
“That I’m convinced that this needs to be investigated,” Leonard said. He turned to Anders. “Pending investigation, you are suspended from your duties until further notice.”
“What?” Anders asked.
“You heard me, and Mrs. Morgendorffer. These accusations are serious. Go to your office and clear out any personal items.”
“Yes, sir,” Anders said in a contrite tone.
Anders stormed out of the small meeting room. ‘I shouldn’t have listened to Osborn! It’s his fault!’ She thought as she held back tears. ‘What will he do when he finds out?’

Artifact in Lawndale - Part 2
Dec. 4th, 2025 08:25 pmIn the air
“So what is in common between the Lawndale Artefacts?” Myka asked.
“Good Question,” Artie replied. “Actually, there is little in common, other than the details I told Claudia earlier.”
“So, the locality, the fact that they need to be brought in to the warehouse in a short period of time, and the requirement of four agents,” Myka said.
“Correct. There is nothing else.”
“What about the geographical extent of where the artefacts have been found?”
“Another good question.”
“And?” Myka prompted.
“And the extent has grown with the town. No Lawndale artefact has been found beyond the urban limit of the settlement, and none were found in the area before the settlement was established.”
“So, there may be something in the town, an artefact created by the founding ceremony?” Myka asked.
“That has been proposed before,” Artie said.
“By me, in fact,” H.G. interjected.
“And by others,” Artie continued.
“Right,” Myka said.
“However, you are to only snag, bag and tag the artefact that set off the ping. Don't go looking for the hypothetical founding artefact. Once you have the artefact, return to the Warehouse,” Artie ordered.
“Understood,” Myka said.
“Of course,” H.G. said.
“Only get the artefact we were sent for, got it,” Pete said.
“Certainly,” Claudia added.
