"None taken." said Conner as he put his shield away and followed.

Picking up his satchel in a fluid motion Peter bearly slowed down as he headed for the rear entrance. As he barged out of the rear door into an alleyway, the police were beginning to pull up and cordon off the area. "I really hate this job sometimes." He muttered as he tried to think of a way out. "Any suggestions, Patriot?" The Spider asked his newfound partner.

"Hold on tight." he said before scooping up Spider-Boy and zooming past the cop cars. He kept running until they came to the roof of a building a long ways away from the police. "Sorry if that was sudden. Just trying to help."

"What in the blue hell are the giving you people?" Questioned Peter as he recovered. Whoever or whatever he was, it was certainly going to be interesting to hear his explanation. "But I'm guessing you're someone's pet project right?"

"Sort of. I was chosen by the government for a blood transfusion from a sample of Super Soldier's blood. My family died in a car accident so I they took me in as his replacement. I live on base, but like today I sneak out every now and then. I guess that was actually a good thing for once." said Conner.

Spider-Boy groaned. "Well, that's just brilliant!" He muttered to himself sarcastically as he massaged his forehead. "So you're a government super-soldier who likes to sneak off base and play video games? Not that I don't appreciate the help, but isn't that a little irresponsible?" He put to the rookie super-soldier.

"Well excuse me for being a sixteen year old who wants a childhood." said Conner, slightly annoyed. "You know I've never even had a girlfriend yet."

"I'm sorry, didn't mean to sound like a dick." Replied Peter apologetically. "Guess I just figured that the men upstairs would've been done with this whole damned project by now."

"What do you mean exactly?" asked Conner. "As far as I know, I was the only project."

"I figured after Cadmus's attempt at cloning a new super soldier, that they would've given up on the whole project." Figured Peter honestly, but still limiting the information just in case. "Obviously not." He grinned a little. "Not that a little help wouldn't be appreciated."

"Whoa go back. Cloning? You're a clone of Super Soldier? Doesn't that sort of make you my older blood brother or something? Or are you younger somehow?" asked Conner with curiosity.

"So you know about me, huh? Why am I not surprised?" Asked Peter rhetorically. "Yeah I'm a clone of the Super Soldier, except with Gravity based powers. I'll accept the blood brothers angle, but I'm not entirely sure on the older or younger thing just yet."

"Weird." said Conner, looking Pete over. "So what now?"

"I don't know. It seems that you could either go back to the Project or come stay with me. Thought it'd be interesting explaining to my land lady why I suddenly have a black sixteen year old living with me. And the Projects not going to be happy with your escape and the possible publicity from the scene we just caused." Thought Peter out loud. "The question is, what do you want to do now?"

"Don't get me wrong, getting off base more often would be cool. But, they don't really treat me like an experiment. At least the soldiers don't." said Conner. "I mean, I haven't ever stayed off base for more than a day." He scratched his head, thinking over the proposal. "I don't know. I guess I could try it."

"I just hope those military types you speak so fondly of don't mind," hoped Pete. "'Cause I somehow doubt that it's a good idea to piss them off."

"Hey I do it all the time and I'm fine." joked Conner.

"Don't blame you to be honest, but it's Cadmus's policy to keep in the good books of as many government branches and agencies as possible." Stated Peter. "But personally I wouldn't say not to a bit of company if you want to hang out for a while." He added with a smile grin growing on his face.

"A long as you have something better than the food the serve on base, I think I'll be fine." said Conner.

"I'll see what I can do," figured Peter. "Speaking of that, how's about letting me get my civvies on and we can go get some take outs? I'm feeling a bit peckish." He added as he dropped his satchel to the ground and began pulling out his mufti clothes.
