After finishing her shift, Quinn went up to the roof. But before she changed to SpiderGirl, she looked around at the town. ‘Did something change earlier?’ she wondered as she looked around. ‘Nothing out of the ordinary,’ she decided as she looked towards the Strawberry a second time. She then changed to SpiderGirl and listened for a while before swinging away. There was the usual discord that had been present for the past five days.
Towards midnight, Ninja Talon approached the Hecuba-Croft residence. She saw that Andrea’s light was still on through the dark curtains. ‘Good.’ She then went around to the backyard.
Andrea heard her door open. She saw a figure, looking like a ninja, there. “Ninja Talon?” she asked. “How did you get in here?”
“That’s me,” Ninja Talon answered. “I picked the back door lock.”
“Why are you here?”
“I would like you to hack into Oscorp for me.”
“Oscorp?” Andrea asked. She stood up. “Why would I do that, Brittany?”
“Brittany? Who’s Brittany?” Ninja Talon asked, her voice as low as it could go.
“I know it’s you, Brittany. Who else would know their way here in the night time?”
Brittany took off her mask. “How did you figure it out?” she asked.
“As I said, who else would know their way to this room at night? Not anyone else currently at Lawndale High. You came straight here; you didn’t open my parents’ door or those of any of the spare rooms by mistake.”
“Oops!”
“Don’t worry, your secret identity is safe with me and I’m not going to ask about SpiderGirl’s. But I am going to ask why you want me to hack into Oscorp!”
“Because SpiderGirl and I found out the extent of their footprint in Lawndale and because of what happened on Friday night.”
“Uh! Don’t remind me!” Andrea said with a wave of her hands. “I’m still jittery about that.”
“Sorry, but while we were able to find documents when we infiltrated an office, the computers were inaccessible.”
“They would be that way.”
“We did give copies of the documents to the Sun-Herald,” Brittany said. “But we need to find out more.”
“About what, beyond their footprint being large?”
“Where that glider craft is, that was used on Friday night.”
“So, far I’m just hearing a conspiracy theory,” Andrea said.
‘You could just check their website.”
“I will.”
