Far above Earth…
Beyond the clouds…
Beyond the atmosphere…
Inside the endless darkness of space…
A terrifying presence slowly moved toward the planet.
The stars themselves seemed to dim slightly wherever it passed.
Coldness spread unnaturally through the void.
An enormous figure made entirely from dark blue cosmic ice drifted silently toward Earth like a god of frozen death.
Every movement released ancient energy capable of freezing entire worlds.
Its glowing eyes stared directly toward one specific location on Earth.
The Parker family.
More specifically—
The unborn child growing inside Mary.
The gigantic being slowly extended one massive hand toward the planet.
But then—
CRAAAAACK!!!
Space itself suddenly shattered.
Golden energy exploded across the darkness like lightning from heaven.
BOOOOOOOOM!!!
A gigantic bolt of golden mystical power slammed directly into the icy giant’s chest with devastating force.
The creature roared in pain.
“AAAAARGH!!”
The shockwave spread across space itself while frozen debris scattered everywhere.
The giant immediately staggered backward before looking around furiously.
Then suddenly—
A glowing circular portal slowly opened nearby.
Golden magical symbols rotated around its edges while ancient energy flowed endlessly from within.
Step.
Step.
Step.
A single figure slowly walked out from the portal.
The person wore long yellow robes covered with mystical runes glowing faintly with power.
Their face remained hidden beneath a hood while ancient magical energy surrounded their body like a divine storm.
The moment the figure appeared—
Space itself became calmer.
The icy giant narrowed its glowing eyes.
“You…”
The mysterious figure stopped floating in space before speaking calmly.
“Leave.”
The voice sounded gentle.
But carried overwhelming authority.
“This world is not your domain.”
Golden magical circles slowly formed around the figure’s hands.
The surrounding stars reflected within the glowing runes.
“I will say this only once,” the hooded figure continued coldly.
“If you take one more step toward Earth…”
The magical energy around the figure suddenly intensified violently.
“…I will take action.”
Silence filled the darkness of space.
The icy giant stared at the robed figure with visible rage.
Then slowly—
It spoke.
“Ancient One…”
The title echoed heavily across space.
“Do not think I will forget this.”
Its freezing aura expanded slightly before slowly retracting again.
“This child’s existence has already disturbed cosmic balance.”
The Ancient One remained completely calm.
The icy being glared toward Earth one final time before its enormous body slowly dissolved into darkness.
Within moments—
It disappeared completely.
Silence returned to space once again.
The Ancient One remained floating there quietly for several moments.
Then slowly…
She removed the hood covering her face.
A bald woman with calm eyes and an unreadable expression appeared beneath the robes.
The Ancient One.
Earth’s current Sorcerer Supreme.
Protector of reality itself.
Golden magical energy slowly faded around her hands as she looked down toward Earth.
More specifically—
Toward the small house where Ben, May, Richard, and Mary were happily celebrating together without realizing what had just happened.
The Ancient One’s eyes softened slightly.
“A child born from an impossible union…” she whispered quietly.
“An ancient Viltrumite…”
“And a human.”
The flow of time itself briefly reflected within her eyes.
Countless possible futures.
Countless destinies.
Some beautiful.
Some catastrophic.
She had seen them all.
And yet…
One future shined brighter than the others.
A future filled with hope.
Slowly, a faint smile appeared on her face.
“I hope you will bring good changes to this world…”
Her gaze focused toward Mary’s stomach.
“…Child of Light.”
The stars around her sparkled softly.
Then suddenly—
CRACK!
A golden portal opened behind her once again.
The Ancient One took one final glance toward Earth before quietly stepping back into the portal.
Moments later, the portal closed.
And the darkness of space became silent once more.
Meanwhile…
Completely unaware of the cosmic beings watching over them…
Inside a small peaceful house on Earth…
Laughter continued echoing warmly as a family celebrated the arrival of a child destined to change the universe forever.
Days slowly turned into weeks.
Weeks slowly became months.
And with every passing day, the atmosphere around the Parker family gradually changed.
What once began as simple happiness slowly evolved into something much more serious.
Because beneath that happiness…
Danger was approaching silently.
After accepting Norman Osborn’s offer, Richard officially joined Oscorp’s secret biological enhancement project.
The project itself was unlike anything humanity had ever attempted before.
Its goal was terrifying.
The creation of the perfect super soldier serum.
A serum capable of evolving the human body beyond its natural limits.
Inside the underground laboratories of Oscorp, countless scientists worked day and night under strict secrecy.
Advanced machines filled the massive facility while genetic formulas and biological equations covered every screen.
At the center of it all…
Was Richard Parker.
Unlike the other scientists, Richard’s purpose was different.
Everyone else worked for power.
For money.
For military dominance.
But Richard only worked for one reason.
His family.
More specifically—
To save Mary and their unborn child.
Inside one of the laboratories, Richard carefully studied the glowing blue liquid rotating inside a containment chamber.
His exhausted eyes reflected countless sleepless nights.
The serum’s true purpose was terrifyingly simple.
Enhancement.
Absolute enhancement.
It amplified everything the body naturally possessed.
Muscles.
Bones.
Cells.
Organs.
Reflexes.
Senses.
Even brain activity.
If an ordinary human could lift one hundred pounds…
The serum could potentially increase that ability hundreds or even thousands of times over depending on compatibility.
But strength alone was not what made the serum terrifying.
The real danger came from efficiency.
Every part of the body evolved together perfectly.
For example—
If a man naturally possessed enough strength to lift a thousand tons, then after taking the serum, every muscle fiber, organ, nerve, and sensory system within his body would evolve exponentially.
The result would create a being whose power surpassed simple multiplication.
A creature far beyond human limitations.
And Richard intended to use that evolution to fight the V-Virus.
Months passed as the research continued endlessly.
Richard barely slept anymore.
Every day, he worked harder and harder.
Meanwhile…
Mary’s pregnancy slowly progressed.
Five months eventually passed.
One quiet evening, Mary sat beside the window of their home while gently holding her stomach.
Her belly had finally begun visibly growing now.
Warm sunlight illuminated her face softly while a peaceful smile rested on her lips.
For a moment…
She simply looked happy.
Human.
Normal.
Richard sat nearby surrounded by research papers and scientific notes.
Dark circles had begun appearing beneath his eyes due to exhaustion.
Mary quietly looked toward him before speaking softly.
“Richard…”
Richard immediately looked up.
Mary gently placed one hand over her stomach.
“I think the baby will be born soon.”
Richard blinked slightly.
“What do you mean?”
Mary looked down thoughtfully.
“Ancient Viltrumite pregnancies are different from human pregnancies.”
Her expression slowly became serious.
“Normally, for our race, childbirth takes several years.”
Richard’s eyes widened slightly.
“Years?”
Mary nodded.
“The stronger the child’s genetics, the longer the development period.”
Then she looked back toward him.
“But our child…” she whispered softly, “…will likely be born within nine months.”
Silence filled the room instantly.
Richard’s expression changed immediately.
Because he understood the implication instantly.
If the child was developing faster than expected…
Then the V-Virus would also spread faster.
Richard slowly clenched his fists tightly.
“No…”
Mary looked toward him quietly.
Richard suddenly stood up.
“I won’t let that happen.”
His voice carried absolute determination.
He walked toward her immediately before kneeling beside her and gently placing his hand over her stomach.
“I’ll protect our child,” he whispered firmly.
“No matter what.”
Mary’s eyes softened emotionally.
Despite his exhaustion…
Despite being only human…
Richard continued fighting against impossible odds for their sake.
And deep down…
That made her love him even more.
Meanwhile—
Inside Oscorp Tower…
Things had also become increasingly dangerous.
Norman Osborn himself had begun taking direct interest in Richard’s research.
Unlike the public image he showed the world, Norman was desperate.
Terrified.
Because hidden deep within the Osborn bloodline existed a horrifying genetic disease.
A sickness slowly destroying Norman’s body from within.
Doctors had already predicted his death years ago.
And Norman refused to accept it.
That desperation was what pushed him toward the super soldier serum project.
He wanted power.
He wanted survival.
He wanted evolution.
And Richard’s research represented hope.
Inside his office overlooking New York City, Norman stood silently beside the massive glass window while holding a report tightly.
His expression looked calm.
But beneath that calmness…
Madness slowly grew.
“Five months…” Norman muttered quietly.
Then suddenly—
He slammed the report onto the desk violently.
“Still incomplete.”
Several scientists nearby immediately lowered their heads nervously.
Norman’s cold eyes focused toward Richard.
“You’re running out of time, Doctor Parker.”
Richard remained silent.
Norman slowly approached him.
“I invested billions into this project.”
His voice became colder.
“And I expect results.”
Richard clenched his jaw slightly.
He understood Norman’s desperation.
But he also understood something even more dangerous.
Norman could never be allowed to obtain the completed serum.
Because Richard had already seen what obsession and power did to people.
Thragg.
The Viltrumite Empire.
Endless conquest.
Humanity was not ready for such power.
Especially not someone like Norman Osborn.
So secretly…
Richard had already made his decision.
Even if it cost him his career…
Even if it cost him his life…
He would never give Norman the true serum.
Instead…
Richard planned to create a byproduct.
An incomplete version.
Something weaker.
Something controllable.
And that plan had already begun.
Inside a hidden laboratory section accessible only by Richard himself, several genetically modified spiders rested inside transparent containment chambers.
Each spider carried traces of experimental serum mixed carefully with altered DNA structures.
Richard quietly stared at them.
The spiders represented a safer alternative.
Instead of directly injecting unstable serum into humans…
The genetically altered spiders could gradually transfer modified abilities through controlled biological interaction.
Less dangerous.
Less effective.
But survivable.
Richard adjusted his glasses tiredly while whispering softly,
“If Norman wants results…”
His eyes narrowed slightly.
“Then I’ll give him results.”
Meanwhile…
Far away from Oscorp…
Inside the Parker home…
Mary suddenly placed a hand against her stomach.
Then froze.
Her silver eyes widened slightly.
Because for the very first time—
The baby moved.
A small smile instantly appeared on her face.
“…Richard,” she whispered softly.
At that exact moment…
Deep within her womb…
A faint golden light briefly flickered.
Time continued to pass peacefully.
Days became weeks.
Weeks became months.
And before anyone realized it…
The final day had finally arrived.
The day their child would be born.
Outside, heavy rain poured across New York City while thunder occasionally echoed through the dark night sky.
The cold atmosphere outside contrasted heavily with the warm and peaceful feeling inside the Parker house.
Currently, Mary and Richard sat together in the living room while quietly watching television.
Or rather—
Richard was pretending to watch television.
In reality, his attention constantly shifted toward Mary every few seconds.
For the past month, he had become unbelievably protective.
Almost paranoid.
Mary found it both adorable and exhausting.
“You know,” she said while smiling faintly, “you’ve checked my condition fourteen times in the last hour.”
Richard immediately defended himself.
“That is scientifically inaccurate.”
Mary raised an eyebrow.
“Oh?”
Richard adjusted his glasses seriously.
“It was sixteen times.”
Mary burst into soft laughter.
Even after all the stress surrounding the pregnancy, Richard still managed to make her smile.
But then suddenly—
Mary’s expression changed.
Her hand immediately moved toward her stomach.
“…Ah.”
Richard froze instantly.
Mary lightly clutched her belly while taking a slow breath.
Richard’s eyes widened.
“Mary?”
Mary looked toward him calmly despite the slight pain visible on her face.
“Richard…” she whispered softly.
Another sharp pain suddenly hit her.
She inhaled deeply before speaking again.
“It looks like the baby is coming.”
For a brief moment—
Richard completely stopped functioning.
Silence.
Then suddenly—
“WHAT?!”
He nearly jumped off the couch.
Mary could not help laughing slightly despite the pain.
“Looks like the time has finally arrived.”
Richard instantly panicked.
“Okay—okay—we need to go!”
He immediately stood up so quickly that he nearly knocked over the table nearby.
“Hospital!”
Without wasting another second, Richard rushed toward Mary before carefully lifting her into his arms bridal-style.
Mary blinked slightly.
“You know,” she muttered softly, “I can still walk.”
“Nope,” Richard replied immediately.
“I am not taking any risks tonight.”
Mary sighed helplessly while smiling softly.
Honestly…
Seeing him so nervous made her feel strangely warm inside.
Richard hurried outside while carrying her carefully through the rain.
The cold wind blew strongly around them as thunder echoed overhead.
Quickly opening the car door, Richard gently placed Mary inside before rushing toward the driver’s seat.
The moment he entered—
The engine roared to life instantly.
TIRES SCREECHED!
The car immediately sped away through the rainy streets toward the hospital.
Inside the vehicle, tension filled the atmosphere.
Richard gripped the steering wheel tightly while driving faster than usual.
Meanwhile, Mary sat quietly while breathing slowly.
Despite the pain…
Her expression remained calm.
Ancient Viltrumites naturally possessed extremely high pain tolerance.
Still…
This experience was completely new even for her.
After all…
She had never imagined herself becoming a mother.
Suddenly, Richard spoke nervously.
“Are you okay?”
Mary nodded softly.
“Yes.”
Two seconds later—
“Are you sure?”
Mary sighed.
“Yes, Richard.”
Another two seconds passed.
“Do you need anything?”
Mary looked toward him with amusement.
“You are more nervous than I am.”
Richard immediately answered without hesitation.
“Of course I am nervous!”
He glanced toward her quickly before speaking again.
“Our child is literally half ancient alien.”
Mary laughed softly despite herself.
Moments later—
The hospital finally appeared ahead.
Richard immediately parked the car recklessly before jumping out.
Without even caring about the rain soaking him completely, he hurried toward Mary’s side and carefully lifted her into his arms again.
Then he practically sprinted toward the hospital entrance.
The moment they entered—
Richard immediately shouted loudly,
“Emergency!
Emergency!”
Several nurses instantly looked toward him in surprise.
“My wife is pregnant!” Richard said quickly.
“She’s about to give birth!”
The nurses immediately rushed into action.
“This way!”
One nurse quickly brought over a stretcher.
Richard carefully placed Mary onto it while still holding her hand tightly.
“You’ll be okay,” he whispered softly.
Mary smiled faintly.
“I know.”
The nurses immediately began wheeling her toward the emergency room.
Richard followed closely behind them without hesitation.
But the moment they reached the entrance—
One of the nurses suddenly stopped him.
“Sir, you cannot enter.”
Richard froze.
“What?”
The nurse shook her head gently.
“You’ll need to wait outside.”
Richard immediately looked conflicted.
Every instinct inside him screamed to stay beside Mary.
But then he remembered something painfully obvious.
He was not a doctor.
He was only a scientist.
Slowly, Richard nodded reluctantly.
Before the doors closed, Mary looked back toward him one final time.
Their eyes met silently.
Richard forced a small smile.
“I’ll be right here.”
Mary nodded softly.
Then—
The doors closed.
Richard slowly sat down on the bench outside the emergency room.
For the first time in years…
He felt truly helpless.
Minutes slowly passed.
Each second felt unbearably long.
Richard constantly rubbed his hands together nervously while staring toward the emergency room doors.
Then suddenly—
Footsteps approached quickly.
Richard looked up immediately.
Ben and May had arrived.
May looked worried while Ben moved toward Richard immediately.
“Richard,” Ben asked quickly, “what happened?”
“Where’s Mary?”
Richard immediately stood up before pointing toward the emergency room.
“She’s inside,” he answered quietly.
“She’s giving birth right now.”
Hearing those words, both Ben and May froze briefly.
Then May immediately placed both hands together nervously.
“Oh Lord…”
Ben gently placed a hand on Richard’s shoulder.
“She’ll be okay.”
Richard nodded slowly.
“…I know.”
Though honestly…
He was terrified.
Not only because of the birth itself.
But because of the V-Virus.
Because nobody truly knew what effect it might have on the baby.
Or on Mary.
Richard slowly sat back down before gesturing beside him.
“You both should sit,” he said quietly.
“It may take some time.”
Ben and May nodded before sitting beside him.
The hallway became silent afterward.
Only distant hospital sounds echoed occasionally.
Meanwhile…
Inside the emergency room…
Doctors and nurses moved quickly around Mary.
But something strange had already begun happening.
Several medical machines started malfunctioning unexpectedly.
Monitors flickered.
Lights blinked repeatedly.
One nurse frowned in confusion.
“What’s happening?”
Then suddenly—
A faint golden glow briefly appeared around Mary’s stomach.
So faint that nobody noticed it clearly.
Except Mary herself.
Her silver eyes widened slightly.
Because deep inside…
She could feel it.
The child’s powers were started showing awakening.
