Taking it slow

The next week went by quickly as Andrew took some much-needed rest and recuperated. With [Axotolt regeneration] he was able to completely heal all injuries leaving no scars.

During this week Andrew had thought what he could do to make up for some of the hurt he caused. The solution he came up with was to have Pixel open some offshore bank accounts in Switzerland, the Cayman Islands and more. He deposited all 40 million dollars he 'freed' from the criminals there. With that done he had Pixel unanimously deposit(only to the more honest ones) enough money that while they wouldn't be rich they would have a lot of time to look for a better job.

Andrew also had Pixel hack Killian's phone, computers, and etc. Then he uploaded all of it to the internet and it made for scandalous news.

"Has the Beast's death been confirmed?"

"Honestly Sir, no. The explosion destroyed all the evidence. However, given that he was hurt by an explosion before, though bulletproof, means that he most likely died in the explosion."

"No, it can't have been that easy... He managed to hide from all our surveillance and always escaped and he just died? I don't think so."

"There is also that evidence released Sir. While it is suspicious, he may have not been working alone. But in the end, all evidence suggests that he is dead."

"... Continue monitoring the situation and report back to me weekly."

"Yes, Sir."

February 13th

Today was the day Tony Stark would be kidnapped. Andrew had Pixel monitoring the situation and would inform him of the moment it made the news.

Nothing much happened these two months. Andrew wanted Pixel to hack into Jarvis but he said that it was a complicated process that would take a lot of time unless he wanted to use brute force and destroy the AI and Wakanda was also similarly though to infiltrate undetected. Andrew also didn't want to interact with any of the characters so that it won't change their lives. He did make some decisions though.

One, he will solely rely on his power. That meant no spider bite or extermis. While they may have good abilities they are obsolete. The only supernatural power that the spider bite gave peter was his regeneration and super strength. He could get all the powers from spider or other animals. He wanted to see where his power alone could take him.

Two, Andrew will acquire most of the infinity stones. While some people used them for good they are rare. So he will keep the stones safe from those who wish to do harm. The time stone and the space stone(tesseract) he will leave them to the ancient one and the Asgardians respectfully as they only guard the stones and hardly use them. There was also the soul stone that needed a sacrifice but Andrew didn't know how to get that one.

Three, he will really start changing the story after most characters have started their story.

Four, he will stop some of the worst events of the MCU.

Five, he will charge the video he makes. While the introduction would be free he would charge for all the other video. Battle videos would be around ten dollars while something like scenery video would be five dollars. Since the website was unhackable there was no chance of someone downloading the video, they could only record it from a camera but the quality, while not unseeable, would be pretty bad.

Six, he would sell some information to SHIELD and some other people. He imagined that the videos would give him a lot of money and the information would give just as much if not more.

Seven, will use the fight from The Iron Monger and Iron Man to make the introduction video. Not all of it just parts and the rest would be explanations of his website.

Eight, he would steal Vision's body. Vision was a good guy and all but Andrew had plans for Pixel to occupate the body after it was made by Ultron. That also meant that Pixel would keep the mind stone but that was fine with Andrew.

Andrew had also not been slacking in his training. Since he had a lot of time on his hand and his regeneration to heal his body faster and almost limitless stamina he was full of compact yet super strong muscles. His previous 5'9 feet tall height had increased to a 6'0 as well.

Andrew didn't have any plans to go to college right now. As good as it might be he had other things to do and if he could get his hands on the one animal he wants then he didn't have to worry about it.

He had absorbed a bunch of abilities based on how useful they were.

[Spider's danger sense - when in danger your body will instinctively move]

[Peregrine Falcon wing's - wings will grow on your back, maximum speed 240mhp when diving and 70mhp when in horizontal flight]

[Giraffe's sleep - reduces sleep needed down to 30 minutes a day]

"Sir, Tony Stark has been kidnapped just like you said." Pixel said.

"So it has finally started huh... Pixel buy some shares of Stark industries. Not a lot just a little bit." Andrew had Pixel invest in several businesses, gamble online and also steal money from criminals in these two months as well.

He also donated a lot of money to charities and orphanages.

"Yes Sir"

May 1st

"Tony Stark has escaped his kidnappers, Sir."

"Sh*t, I'm so bored! And Iron Man one will only start in late November!" Andrew had a lot of time on his hands, maybe a little too much.

"I need a drink..." Saying so he left his new apartment. It was in a quiet neighborhood and it was pretty big for one person.

[Rat's constitution - your body is immune to most diseases]

[Opossum's poison immunity - you become immune to all poisons *caution, poison immunity only*]

[Cockroach's decapitation - in case you lose your head you will be able to breathe through pores in your body and wouldn't lose blood *caution, it does not make you immune to hunger and you will not be able to think therefore becoming like a thoughtless body*] (It took a lot of courage for this one as Andrew had a strong disgust towards insects)

[Wood Frog's cryogenesis - in the event you are frozen you will stop breathing and your heart will stop, when you are unfrozen you will breathe and your heart will beat again *built-in cold resistance*]

[Moth's hearing - much better hearing than humans, can hear high-frequency sounds]

[Cat's reflexes - your reaction time and reflexes increase immensely]

[Hummingbird's metabolism - 100 times that of an elephant]

[Viper's infrared vision - you can sense heat and are able to see it]

[Lyrebird's voice mimicry - able to perfectly copy sounds you heard]

[Swordfish's sword - both your arms generate a sword-like blade, sharp enough to pierce flesh but not cut bone]

[Mantis shrimp's punch - by building up force in your arms you can punch at the speed and strength of a .22 caliber bullet]

[Platypus' electrolocation - can sense electricity in your surroundings *caution, works better in the water while it's almost useless out of the water*]

[Pistol Shrimp's clap - by clapping your hands you will be able to create a powerful soundwave capable to push someone back and knocking them out *more effective in water*]

In a random bar

Since Andrew had grown taller, grown a beard, and his hair was about shoulder length even though he still had some teenager features he was easily allowed in. He had been frequenting bars a lot lately in hopes of meeting a certain someone. He had stopped counting for a while but it looks like luck was on his side.

In the counter was one, Jessica Jones. In 2008 she should be about 22 years old. It was also three years after the death of her boyfriend Stirling and years before being mind-controlled by Kilgrave.

She had on her iconic leather jacket and ripped pants and looked younger and less moody than in the series.

Andrew sat down and started talking with her.

This chapter took way too long to write. The research into the animals is really what takes the longest and I keep getting distracted midway. I want to write good long chapters and not short, low-quality ones.

Anyways, thanks for reading.

Special thanks to Shameless_King and JStylesfor their suggestions.
