But the storm outside was nothing compared to the storm inside the master cabin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sounds of the ocean were drowned out by... other noises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, silence fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gwen Stacy, the golden-haired Spider-Woman, lay sprawled on the bed, utterly exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with her mutated super-strength, she felt like she had been run over by a truck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at the corner of the room. Her black-and-white Spider-suit—the one she had painstakingly sewn herself—was in tatters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So much for durability, she thought, pulling the covers over her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She scooted closer to Vincent, seeking his warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent leaned back against the pillows, catching his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A worthy opponent, he thought. If I didn't have Hydro-Kinesis to boost my stamina and blood flow, she would have crushed me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the shredded suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being with a superhero is like wrestling in an octagon. You can't lose focus for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gwen mumbled something into his chest. \"No more. I'm sleeping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was dead tired. Swinging around New York for five hours was less exhausting than this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent smiled, wrapping his arms around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who can refuse a woman in a Spider-suit? Especially when that woman is Gwen Stacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes, satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SHIELD Safehouse. New York.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it. He took a boat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha Romanoff was frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had bugged Vincent's Long Island estate, but he hadn't shown up all weekend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, her intel confirmed he had rented a yacht and disappeared into the Atlantic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No signal. No surveillance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the perfect blind spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha sighed. Her mission was to monitor the Ice Demon and prevent him from turning New York into a war zone again. The cleanup from the Kingpin incident had been a nightmare for SHIELD's PR department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knock. Knock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha opened the door. Nick Fury walked in, his leather trench coat dripping with rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Ice Demon is off the grid,\" Natasha reported immediately. \"He's on a boat with Gwen Stacy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget the Ice Demon for a moment,\" Fury said, his face grim. \"New York has a new problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A giant lizard just attacked the Manhattan Bridge. Casualties are high.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Lizard?\" Natasha frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. We suspect illegal genetic modification. Someone is trying to make super-soldiers again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury pulled up a holographic file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Lizard's target was an Oscorp executive. But he went on a rampage. He tossed cars off the bridge like toys. Including a school bus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha's eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn't just a mutant,\" Fury continued. \"This is a failed science experiment. His regeneration factor rivals Wolverine's. Our standard agents can't put him down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swiped to another file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's another player. The 'Ghost Spider'—or Spider-Woman. She usually patrols at night, but she was absent during the bridge attack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury looked at Natasha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have a strong suspect for her identity. Gwen Stacy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha looked at the file. Gwen Stacy. Police Commissioner's daughter. Vincent Hall's girlfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How sure are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oscorp has been working on cross-species genetics for years,\" Fury explained. \"The Spider-Serum was their holy grail. The Parkers died for it. Gwen Stacy interning there fits the timeline. And her absence tonight... while she's on a boat with the Ice Demon... confirms it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury's one eye narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, we have a Power Couple. The Ice Demon and Spider-Woman.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's the play?\" Natasha asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spider-Woman is a hero. We recruit her,\" Fury said decisively. \"The Lizard is a monster. He's lost his humanity. He needs to be put down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the Ice Demon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he's with Spider-Woman, he'll get involved eventually. Let's see if he fights for the city... or just for her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Lizard is powerful. If we can't stop him, I might have to authorize the Ice Demon to engage. Better a frozen bridge than a dead city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha watched him go, then looked back at the file on Gwen Stacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the innocent girlfriend is a superhero too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha smirked. This kid really does have a type.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Get The FULL NOVEL at Once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now at 30% OFF @patreon.com\u002FAuthorizz\u003C\u002Fp>",688,"2026-06-06T16:16:52.583Z",1,"novelbin.me","7e0408444d872f10ba8ece18412f2e31886b4252f61e9a0bb5d600866d729c80","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-35","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-33",116,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-cover.jpg"]
