Craig hatches a most devious scheme

Craig strode away from Mary Jane, his mind already racing with plans. He knew he needed help to pull off what he had in mind, and there was only one person he could turn to - Felicia Hardy, the Black Cat.

He found a secluded spot behind one of the cabins and pulled out his phone, scrolling through his contacts until he found her number. Craig hesitated for a moment before hitting call. Things had been tense between them since that night she caught him with Mary Jane. But he needed her skills and connections for this to work.

Felicia answered on the third ring. "What do you want, kid?" Her voice was cool and clipped.

"I need your help," Craig said, cutting right to the chase. "It's about Parker."

There was a pause on the other end of the line. Then, "I'm listening."

Craig outlined his plan quickly, keeping his voice low in case anyone was nearby. "But to pull it off, I need something special. A serum or formula of some kind. Something that can temporarily suppress Parker's... testosterone."

"And you think I can get my hands on something like that?" Felicia asked, a note of intrigue creeping into her voice.

"I know you can," Craig replied confidently. "That employer of yours, the one who set this whole thing in motion - he's got access to all kinds of experimental tech and chemicals. I bet he's got exactly what we need."

Felicia was quiet for a long moment, considering. "It's risky," she said finally. "If he found out I was stealing from him..."

"Come on, kitty cat," Craig cajoled. "Where's your sense of adventure? Besides, think how satisfying it'll be to take Parker down a peg or two."

He could practically hear the gears turning in Felicia's head. Her rivalry with Mary Jane was well-known, and Craig knew she'd jump at the chance to humiliate Parker.

"Alright," Felicia said at last. "I'll see what I can do. But you owe me big time for this, kid."

Craig grinned. "Don't worry, I'll make it worth your while. You know I'm good for it."

They hashed out a few more details before ending the call. Craig leaned back against the cabin wall, a sense of anticipation thrumming through him. Soon, he'd have Parker right where he wanted him. And Mary Jane would be his completely.
