SHIELD #8 - "The Female of the Species"
Written by Eagletsi & GarganisScorpion
Edited by GarganisScorpion

On the bridge of the helicarrier, with his trusted man Dugan at his side, director Nick Fury busied himself going over the minutes of his meeting with the president. But his mind wasn't really on it. While he had been shaking hands in the white house Cap's team had turned up a much more interesting mystery. One Nick was eager to get some clues on.

“‘What do you have for me Tia?” asked Fury, responding to the incoming page on his command terminal. Tia Senyaka was the senior medical physician on board, and the one Fury trusted to produce answers.

“We completed a full medical evaluation of the three AIM super-soldiers we captured. Or as complete as I'm capable of without more specialized equipment." said Tia. She continued, “First, AIM did a great job of erasing their identities. We haven't found any record of them in our domestic or foreign databases. It's possible AIM has had these women since they were very young, or... perhaps even bred them specifically for the purpose of being experimented on."

Fury scowled to hide his discomfort at the thought. "So they weren't willing agents? Are these girls enemy soldiers or innocent victims or brainwashing?"

"I'd put my money on the latter. Agent Leeman recovered small metallic discs attached to the base of their skulls which would be capable of feeding information directly into their brains. Since we removed the discs they've been completely non-communicative, likely shock from the sudden lack of commands from their AIM masters."

"So they could be rehabilitated?" Fury guessed.

"Maybe. Whatever free will they had has been deeply buried under what might well be a lifetime's worth of brainwashing. It would take someone highly specialized in deprogramming to cut through it all."

Fury passed a glance to Dum-Dum and the burly commander nodded, already having guessed what Fury was thinking. "Set a course for the Adirondacks, and break out your parkas!" Dugan instructed the pilots at the helm.

"Lastly, there is the issue of the extensive genetic modifications these women have undergone." Tia went on, her tone professional but unable to completely mask the incredulity creeping into her voice. "I’ve never seen seen the human genome so twisted up, not even in the mutant patients I've studied. Large segments appear quite similar to what I've seen of Spider-Man's DNA, but then other genes are completely unique. AIM has either been working on these three for years, or is far more advanced than we realized."

"Your professional recommendation then?" Fury asked.

"I would recommend that we keep them locked up and moved to a more specialized medical facility for further review. I've kept them sedated during the examination but their metabolisms are shrugging off the effects of the drugs almost as fast as they are healing from the fight.”

"I'll double the guard." Fury agreed, not sure if even that was sufficient precaution. "Consider the medlab quarantined until we reach Project: Pegasus. No one in or out."

"Pegasus, sir?"

"A secret SHIELD facility we are en route to as we speak. Originally intended to study exotic energy sources, it houses most of our top eggheads. Including one in particular that I think we'll need: Dr. Leonard Samson."

"Dr. Samson!" Tia remarked in an uncharacteristic gush of admiration. "I've read his papers on nutrient bath treatments! But... as much as I respect his work, I don't think gene-therapy will be of much help relieving their mental state."

"I take it you didn't know about his background as a psychologist then. He was instrumental helping SHIELD crack the psychological resistance training of the KGB. Take it from me, Doc Samson's the only man I'd trust to handle something like this. By the way Senyaka, this is eyes-only information, understood? Don't go spreading the details of this conversation around."

"Understood sir. I'll have the medbay sealed until you give the word."


----------------------------------


"Jenkins. White." greeted one of the pair of agents reporting for guard duty, joining the two that were already stationed on either side of the medical lab's locked entrance. "We've been assigned to back you up."

"Really? Seems a bit excessive." White remarked, surprised by Fury's orders. "All four of us just to stand here and watch these pretty ladies taking a nap..."

"Doesn't look like they're napping anymore." observed one of the newcomers, peeking in through the plate glass window in the heavy metal door. "Sedatives must have worn off. What are they doing?"

Agent Jenkins peered in as well and saw that all three spider-women were up and moving around their cell. They moved slowly, perhaps still nursing injuries or sluggish from the drugs, creeping over the beds and clinging to the walls and even scaling across the ceiling until every square foot of their room had been explored. Not a word was spoken, though the glances they passed between them seemed to carry hidden layers of meaning only their spider-sisters could decipher.

Soon enough all four guards were crowding around the window, watching the lithe females slink around. They stood entranced until one of the prisoners ever so briefly turned to smile at her audience.

"Woah, did you see that?"

"What?"

"She just winked at me! The sandy brunette one!"

"She did not. They're wearing masks over their eyes, stupid. That's just wishful thinking."

"I heard the medical team saying AIM might have grown these ladies in test tubes."

"Damn, maybe I should go work for AIM. I'd take a test-tube-girlfriend like her instead of a Christmas bonus, that's for sure."

"Holy ####, she did it again! Tell me you saw that!"

"Yeah... I did. What's going on here?"

All three of the captive spider-women were oriented on the watching SHIELD troopers now, and they weren't being shy. They smiled warmly and made affectionate cooing sounds, perching on the furniture and walls in poses intended to give their guards an easy eyeful of their sleek, sexy limbs. One tossed her head and shook her long midnight-black hair about playfully. Another parted her full red lips and hungrily slid her tongue across pearly pointed teeth. The men were captivated by their languid bodies flexing and stretching into enticing poses, the sound of needy purring filtering out into the hallway.

"Maybe we should go in there... check to see if they need something. Maybe they're hungry." White suggested, looking for any excuse to unlock the door.

"Oh I know what those girls need."

"Yeah... they could be... trying to, uhh, communicate?" Jenkins said, sweating heavily. He went to the locking mechanism and frantically typed the passcode into the keypad with shaking fingers, but before he could finish with a thumb-scan he was pulled away by one of his fellow agents.

"What do you think you're DOING? That med-lab is under QUARANTINE!" The other soldier shouted, shoving Jenkins against the corridor wall. "Nothing in, and nothing out."

"I NEED TO GET IN THERE!" Jenkings raved like a maniac, prompting a fierce slap across the face that left him stunned on the ground. White was shocked to see his fellow soldier break down before his eyes, and the shock made him realize how close he was to doing the exact same thing. His flesh was feverish and sweaty, his heart pounding in his chest. What on earth was happening to him? All he could think about was the supple female flesh on the other side of that door, waiting for his touch. He could hear their murmurs, he could smell their intoxicating feminine scent... could practically taste it in the back of his mouth...

"Oh no..." White said in a hush, his dilated eyes darting to the small air vent in the wall connecting the med lab with the rest of the helicarrier. The captives were releasing some kind of synthetic pheromone into the air, and they had been standing there sucking up every lungful.

"Men, we're under attack! Chemical warfare! Drake! Leeroy! Damn you, listen to me!"

But they couldn't hear a single word of warning. They were far too intent on the show being put on for their benefit inside. Two of the captives had turned their energy on each other, sharing a moist sapphic kiss and caressing each others curvy hips, sides and breasts. Their oral play paused just long enough to turn back to the watching guards and give them a deeply pleading look.

"#### QUARANTINE! I'm going in there NOW!"

White tried to fight the two of them off of the electronic lock but utterly failed to overpower them. Even his own limbs didn't want to obey him, suddenly to weak to pull his sidearm from its holster. The door unsealed itself and slid open, and the entranced guards shuffled inside like zombies, their arms outstretched eager to embrace the sirens calling to them. White wanted to sound the alarm, to turn and run to safety. He tried to remember the face of his wife, but couldn't. All he could do was watch the third deadly beauty in front of him, her long black mane swishing behind her as she swayed back and forth, her hands roaming across her chest. Her fingers found the clasp at the neck of her form-fitting bodysuit, pulled the zipped down to her waist in one fluid motion, and beckoned White closer. The last of his will fell under her control as she peeled the top half of her scarlet bodysuit off, exposing soft flawless skin flushed with arousal.

The enslaved guards fell upon the seductresses, embracing them with desperate kisses and groping hands. The spiders welcomed their amorous victims into their arms, pressing their bodies against their soon to be prey. Agent White felt his breath taken away by the heated kiss. So much so that when he attempted to pull in a breath the shock of being unable to do so briefly renewed his will to struggle. His hands went to his throat where he found that the spider-woman's were already there.

"Hhccckk!" White choked, his face turning purple. His killer didn't even blink an eyelash. She just kept smiling seductively at him as his vision faded out, her face the last thing he would ever see.

Mere meters away the other two gene-enhanced AIM agents toyed with their men, until they heard the sharp sound of the first zipping her top back up. At once their demeanor shifted to cold efficiency. The ebony-haired agent extended a wickedly sharp spike of bone from her cocked wrist and rammed it through the neck of the man happily nibbling at her collarbone. A spray of blood erupted across the floor and she dropped the man to bleed out his carotid artery for the next couple minutes. The final guard felt his paramour's thighs squeeze around his middle, first affectionately... then with superhuman strength that snapped his back in half. He screamed in pain but was cut off abruptly as her hands repeated the job on his neck.


In seconds the three spider-women were out the door and heading straight for the bridge. Jenkins had been quickly dispatched but not before giving up his security codes, giving the ladies an look through the internal security camera loop. Which gave them the one piece of information they were looking for: the location of Nick Fury.

The managed to make it a third of the distance undetected before the alarms were tripped. Hatches at every junction slammed shut and elevators froze as the helicarrier was put into lockdown mode and a security team was scrambled to deal with the threat.

Special Agent Black Widow lead alpha team. The moved swiftly but carefully through room after room, sweeping for their targets.

"Widow to Bridge. Have you gotten a location fix yet?"

"Almost. Their costumes absorb heat so infra-red trackers are out. Trying to get a lock with internal motion trackers..."

The comm-link in Widow's ear crackled with static, and the sterile white light of the hallway switched to a dim orange glow. The agents with Widow flicked on their rifle-mounted flashlights, scanning the omnipresent shadows for movement.

"Bridge?"

"Main power's been cut. We're floating on backup, but we'll need you to make a stop at the engine core to repair whatever has been damaged by our saboteurs."

"Check." Widow confirmed, her ears picking up a muffled rattle in the ceiling above. Suspicious, she lowered her voice and spoke calmly into her mic. "Bridge. Have you scanned the crawlspaces?"

"Running that sweep now..."

Nearby one of the alpha-team's agents was poking around at something she had stepped in, a sticky semi-gelatinous substance clinging to the wall. She poked it once with the muzzle of her rifle and followed the trail along threads stretching upwards towards the ceiling. More and more strands were revealed as the cone of light from her flashlight scanned upwards, moving slowly towards where the webbing converged---

"HISSSSSS!"

"Aaaghh!"

Black Widow spun just in time to see the curious agent being forcibly dragged through a hole in the ceiling. Only Widow aimed her gun and fired, the others fearful of hitting their fellow agent. A half dozen rounds were emptied before she stopped, the receding screams of the abducted agent letting her know that the effort was futile.

"They're in the walls!" Widow snapped to the coordinators on the bridge. "Repeat: they're in the #%$@ing walls!"

Map: Helicarrier

Setup: SHIELD begins on the lower starting area, the Spider Women begin in the upper starting area. Both players receive three actions per turn.

Battle Field Condition: Deep Shadows: Treat all non-blocking terrain as hindering terrain for line of fire purposes. Characters with range values greater than 6 have range values of 6 instead, and range values can't be modified to a value more than 6. All powers, abilities, and effects able to effect characters more than 6 squares away instead affect characters up to 6 squares away.

Special Rules:
Get the Power Back On! - The blocking terrain in 7A/7B/8A/8B is the power junction. Any SHIELD character can take a power action while adjacent to one of these squares to turn the power back on, which cancels the "Deep Shadows" BFC, and earns your team a whopping 10 TXP bonus.

Scaling the Ceiling - When taking any movement or power action, a Spider-Woman character can choose to reduce her movement value by half. If she does so she ignores terrain and characters for movement purposes (but must still break away as normal).

Lurking in the Shadows - When a Spider-Woman character has zero action tokens, she can use Stealth.

Assassination - If Nick Fury is KO'ed, the game ends and SHIELD suffers a 5 TXP penalty.

This is going to be awesome!!! Excellent Story!

Rules:

Battle Field Condition: Deep Shadows: Treat all non-blocking terrain as hindering terrain for line of fire purposes. Characters with range values greater than 6 have range values of 6 instead, and range values can't be modified to a value more than 6. All powers, abilities, and effects able to effect characters more than 6 squares away instead affect characters up to 6 squares away.

Special Rules:
Get the Power Back On! - The blocking terrain in 7A/7B/8A/8B is the power junction. Any SHIELD character can take a power action while adjacent to one of these squares to turn the power back on, which cancels the "Deep Shadows" BFC, and earns your team a whopping 10 TXP bonus.

Scaling the Ceiling - When taking any movement or power action, a Spider-Woman character can choose to reduce her movement value by half. If she does so she ignores terrain and characters for movement purposes (but must still break away as normal).

Lurking in the Shadows - When a Spider-Woman character has zero action tokens, she can use Stealth.

Assassination - If Nick Fury is KO'ed, the game ends and SHIELD suffers a 5 TXP penalty.

Story:
Fury yells, "Everyone go to Ultra Violet. We won't be able to see as far, but atleast we can see some distance and hopefully, we will be able to them even with those special suits their wearing". Both Agent 13 and Brand moved up, Agent-13 contact Brand on her Comlink. "You forgot to put your UV goggles on, how can you see without them?" Brand has just realized her goggles were still on her head, but somehow her eyes had adjusted and she could see fine. Brand thought to herself, "what did I enhale during the Hydra raid?" Suddenly, everything went dark and she could no longer see. She pulled down her goggles to gain Ultra Violet vision again. Dum Dum followed Brand, he could tell something wasn't right, but would wait until after this was over to ask.

2) Spider-Woman (Arachne) destroys computer in B-8
3) Spider-Woman (Tarantula) moves to B-9.

Tentacles lashed out from the darkness striking at the computer control terminal. Electronic equipment sparked as the metal collapsed underneath the violent attacks. The three Spider-women could sense their enemies moving towards them.
