Chapter 9

Chapter 9 "Oh no," said Ant-Man. "Did Doc Ock do some sort of mind control on you? I hate it when the bad guys do mind control." "No, it's not that," Spider-Man said. "It's just that this is someone's science fair project and I know he worked really hard on it. I'd feel bad if we destroyed it."

"But Ant-Man can use neurotransmitters from his helmet to communicate with the ants," the Wasp explained. "He can send them into Doctor Octopus's metal arms so they can chew through the wires he uses to control them. The battle would be over in an instant." "Really?" asked Spider-Man. "Wow, that is an awesome plan." He pictured Flash and all the hard work he had done. He shook his head. "But no. We can't." "Sure you can," said a voice from behind a table. Flash Thompson popped his head out. "Those are my ants. If they can help stop Doctor Octopus, then they're all yours, Spider-Man."

"Are you sure?" Spidey asked. "Your project would be ruined." Flash shrugged. "It's no biggie. The guy next to me with that awesome water project is probably going to win the trophy anyway. At least now my ants will be doing some good. I knew they were the coolest insects!" Ant-Man smiled. "No offense, Spider-Man," Flash said. "None taken," answered Spidey.

"And listen," Flash added. "If you want to chew through wires, use the trap-jaw ants. Their mandibles move crazy fast, like a hundred and forty miles per hour. They'll get the job done in a snap." Spider-Man was impressed. "And here I thought a spider bite was intense." The Wasp cleared her throat. "Can we get back to beating the bad guy?" she asked. Spidey nodded.

The Wasp smashed a hole into one side of the glass case. Ant-Man sent a signal to the trap-jaw ants. In seconds they came streaming from the case and swarmed Doctor Octopus's metal arms. Then they disappeared inside the sockets. "What is this?" Doc Ock laughed. "You think some tiny, insignificant ants are worthy adversaries for me?" Spider-Man, Ant-Man, and the Wasp waited. "I'll show you what real might is!" the villain continued. He raised his tentacles and prepared to bring them down on the three heroes. But before he could, there was a spark and some smoke. His metal arms went limp. "My arms!" Doctor Octopus cried. "What have you done?"
