“The spider waits for the prey in a shadowy hidden place. Once the prey goes into the web, the spider will normally go for the prey to eat, but sometimes the spider will toy and watch it’s prey struggle and try to get free. It’s like the spider is feeding on the hope the prey has, but then the spider comes out and frees the prey and befriends them. The prey will be happy and quickly run off as the spider will secretly follow it, and once the prey lands in another web. The same spider will come to help, the prey will think it is safe again until the spider eats the head and wraps the prey up. Then the sadistic game is over, until the spider feels another prey land in its web, and it all begins again and the spider just enjoys the whole adventure, as it too had fallen for the trap and now knows the truth….about its purpose and life."


Those words kept echoing through his head. He laid there stretched out in his own room as the words from his brother ShindaNero told him the last time he met. His own brother who had given up on humanity and he tried to stop him from killing and eating, but he always loses. And every time he does, his brother says something about either giving up, or letting the animal they were made to be free. He remember that night when he did do what his brother had said. As he closed his eyes, another flashback hit his head. One he knew all to well.


"Subject S.E X.E.N.O.78...that was the first name I had from that place...of bright lights and nothing but blue and white everywhere. Now I am out here free of the bright light and cold air. People hate how I look and others like me, yet all the bad stuff that happens, I have abilities I can do to help, I won't give in like my other....siblings I should say, but sometimes...it's hard and it hurts when you are a hybrid freak that have the need for more food." The spider boy said as the nice cool air blew on top of the buildings. He was just looking around at the beautiful city lights and the stars in the sky as he felt the wrapped up criminal on his back struggle some more. "I left your henchmen down in the alley. The cop will take care of them, but you old man. I wanted it personally." He said as he leaned over and picked up the wrapped up prey in his silk cocoon and just sighed. He knew what part comes next, but in order to deal with his thirst, he has to do this in order to survive and keep his body strong.


"Normal human food helps a lot, but it isn't enough thanks to my....master in all blue. I am sorry, but this has to be done." He closed his eyes as he sunk his fangs into the cocoon's neck area as he started to suck hard on the struggling and muffled screaming criminal. His six 7 fingered hands held tight on the cocoon as the longer he drank, the smaller the cocoon got. Soon after a few minutes of silences and muffles, the cocoon goes limp and smaller than a normal sized human. The spider looked at the silk and the deflated human as he cried a bit. "This is my curse....this is my plague...and thanks to him, I can never be fixed." He said before he unhinged his mouth and ate the webbing cocoon down whole to reuse the silk for later. Once he had cleaned up and saw the cops down below as they were puzzled by the silk. He just crawled over stretching his arms and legs from roof to roof. It was the curse of the mysteries X and the life of a superhero in hiding.

Once he opened his eyes again he started to cry as he wrapped his neck around itself like a hug or a noose. He wanted death, he didn't want to be this way. He hated how his heart was pulled in 2 different ways, but he remember something a younger Nero told him...before he lost his way. "Everyone can be forgiven, Everyone can be turned around and led down a better path of light. If we go crazy Xeno. I want you to beat our asses and bring us back to what we use to be. A family of freaks, like you and me." He knew what he had to do, he had to stop his brothers and show them, remind them on how to be themselves again, and not what the rich snoobs want them to be. He unwrapped his neck and breath a nice happy breathe of joy, but he was still crying, just tears of joy this time as he watched the TV. "I'll save you guys, even if I die, and that's a promise."

my friend https://www.deviantart.com/srb15937 drew this and I love the picture and the setting, and i just had to add a story behind it! But this is the depressing side of being a mutant hero, but xeno always brings himself back to being happy, and he will soon do the same to his mentally fucked and scared brothers.
