Excerpt from: An Encounter in Australia

“Great!” Tegan groused.

 

 

The Doctor managed to find the source of the waves quicker than he expected. “Alice Springs?” he asked.

 

“Australia?” Tegan asked.

 

“Yes. In the early 21st Century,” the Doctor clarified.

 

“In my future,” Tegan realised.

 

“Yes, but you probably won't find much that would be concerning.”

 

“That isn't reassuring,” Tegan said.

Excerpt from: Video Assignment Troubles

“Of course,” Andrea said.

 

“So, what are we doing?” Kevin asked.

 

“Something to do with this street,” Andrea answered.

 

“And what role it has played in Lawndale's history,” Jane added.

 

“History? Oh man!” Kevin exclaimed.

 

“You will just have to read out what we write on camera,” Jane said.

 

“Does it involve football?” Kevin asked.

 

“No,” Andrea said.

 

“Unless it's a coincidence,” Jane said.

 

“Oh man!” Kevin reacted. “I'm going to find this boring.”

 

Andrea and Jane looked at each other in concern. “Now I know how Darian feels,” the latter moaned.

 

“You mean with the mouse project?” Andrea asked, referring to a science project that had been handed out in the Fall.

 

Jane nodded. “And he just distracted Kevin with the Pigskin Channel...”

 

“What?” Andrea asked after Jane trailed off.

 

“I'm sure that's when he and Quinn got together,” Jane said.

 

“That's right,” Kevin said, with a smile. “I could talk about that.”

 

“No!” the other two said.

 

“That's fine.”

Excerpt from: The Engineer and the Time Lady

“In that case, I think we should pause it, and check with Nina later to see if the TARDIS had gained the information yesterday,” Alpha decided.

 

“Sure,” Aialah said.

 

“We'll look at historical databases instead,” Eta decided.

 

“For now,” Aialah said.

 

 

During her lunch break, Nina saw a commotion in a nearby Bank. Something was happening. She took a moment to adopt the persona she had used the previous night, taking off her dress, showing the Starfleet uniform underneath. She then loosened her hair and put on her mask before taking out the quarterstaff. She took a moment to calm herself, then ran around a corner and entered the bank. She saw that Spider-Man was already on the scene and Octavius was throwing money bags at him.

How to stop Octavius? She could wonder why he was robbing a bank later. She could see Spider-Man having some sort of problem before Octavius knocked him down. “Octavius!” she called. He ignored her as he focused on Spider-Man and began squeezing his head with two of the actuators. She ran up as the superhero produced two webs and slammed two tables against his opponent.

 

There was a brief scuffle before Octavius was knocked into the street.

 

'Maybe Spider-Man doesn't really need help,' she thought as the two continued to fight. But then Octavius grabbed an old lady.

 

 

Nina ran after Octavius and his hostage. “Octavius!”

 

“I said don't follow me!” Octavius said as he looked up a nearby building.

 

“I'm not a cop,” Nina said, but Octavius then began climbing up the building. “OK...” She tapped her combadge. “Nina to Baffin. Octavius tried to rob a bank and is now escaping with a hostage. He's climbing a building with her.”

 

Aialah brought up the scan of the situation as a response to Nina’s request. Alpha took a closer look at it. “Certainly, but Spider-Man is on the scene. He may see,” she said. But there was another issue. “Also, Baffin is too far away. Transporter range is only 45000 km.”

 

I don't think that would be a violation of General Order One. And couldn't the probes be used as relays?

 

“They don't work that way. Adding a teleporting superhero where one doesn't already exist might be,” Alpha said. Her and Aialah’s researches had proven that Spider-Man was unique.

Excerpt from: Party at 111 Howard

Andrea came downstairs and heard another group knock on the door. 'The yard is already crowded,' she thought. She opened the door. “Jen!” she said in surprise.

 

“Hi!” Jen Burns said.

Excerpt from: Mary Jane – Spider Girl

The Bell rang, and MJ headed towards Homeroom.

 

 

MJ used Homeroom to try to calm down. But the memory of Liz chasing her down was replaying in her mind.

 

“Are you OK?” It was her neighbor, Peter Parker.

 

“Oh, you, know… Liz.”

 

That was all Peter needed to know. “Oh! Sorry.”

 

“I don’t know why she has it in for me.”

 

“I’m not sure why either.”

 

 

First period was Biology…
