A day to remember
       The smelly musk filled the room as the the sting from the spider bite came over me. This had to be the worst day of my life. A room filled with skunk spray, a skunk, a spider, and me. My vision was blurred as all I could see was green looking fog and the 2 animals in front of me. I rushed to open up a window and hopefully clear up the room. As soon as I opened the window, the musk began to move in that direction and head out the window in a slow manner. It soon hit me that my friends did this. They know I hate spiders and skunks so it’s no surprise that they could get a hold of both of them and do this to me. The winds kept blowing the smell right back into the room and also my face. I grabbed both the animals immediately and shoved them to the apartment’s balcony. There was no way I was keeping these sneaky animals inside my apartment after what they did to me.
       I began to see… black paws? They moved at the same time my hands would move but where's my hands? The black fur continued up my arms and soon my whole body. What in the world is happening to me? I rushed to the bathroom to see what happened. After turning on the bathroom light, I saw a huge skunk staring back at me. Did the skunk turn me into one of his kind? What is even going on here? I was super confused as I saw everything change in front of me. I was slowly becoming a skunk with a big spider bite under his fur. There was no skin left on my body except for my new pink nose and the pink of my inner ears. My body also got a little smaller in the process with my height changing from 5’9” to 5’0”. Now as a skunk, my legs were the same shape and form as my new species but I was able to stand on both of them without needing to stand on all four of my paws. A fluffy black tail, with two white stripes joining together, reached to almost the top of my head.
        Surprisingly, I looked good for a skunk and I began to think it was really cool. If people bothered me then they can just get sprayed and run away. My new fur was very sleek and fluffy and my tail was so long that it curled once reaching my necks height. When I thought it was all over, the spider bite began to kick in. It first started with my structure and began to change how I looked physically. All my fat disappeared as I gained a six-pack and my muscles showed more in my legs and arms. I looked way stronger than I ever had in my life and it was thanks to a spider bite.
       Something about this seemed familiar though with the spider bite and my now almost perfect looking body… it just felt and sounded familiar. Was this the same thing that happened to Spiderman? My phone quickly told me the answer after a quick Google search. Spiderman gained spider like powers, body changes, and better vision after being bitten. My vision did improve but I wasn’t sure if it was because of my new skunk self or the spider bite. I did know that one of Spiderman’s powers is web slinging by holding out his hand and tucking all his fingers into the palm of the hand while leaving the pointer and pinky fingers sticking out. While staring at myself in the mirror, I did the hand pose. Immediately, a silk web flew out of my wrist and covered the mirror. My body froze in amazement as I look at what just came out of my body.
       That must confirm that I am… a superhero now. The thought of those words would show up in my mind ever. One thing I did need to do is make a costume for myself and my identity. If people see me then they might freak out and run away from me. I went on my phone and ordered a purple fabric onesie, purple fabric, gold fabric, black fabric, white see through mesh fabric, a purple fabric mask, a poncho, golden boots, and purple gloves all for express delivery. The app told me that it will take about thirty minutes for all the stuff to be delivered and that I will only have to pay a tip. My first instinct was to spray all around the skunk smelling house to make it not be very suspicious for the human delivery driver. Some generic branded spray was under the sink and was supposed to make my apartment smell like a beach. That spray covered everything, especially what you would see when you first opened the door. It didn’t smell exactly like a beach but it was certainly better than the musk that filled my apartment before hand. I quickly ran to my closet and found something to wear that would be convincing that I was just in a skunk costume and not a real skunk.
       I found a black and blue, short-sleeved, flannel and put it on my small skunk body. It looked like a mini plaid dress that went down to my knees. To me, it looked like I was in a tiny skunk costume and still tried to look half human in it. I prepared myself for the person who was about to see a anthropomorphic skunk answer the door. I put a black slim tie on and straightened it. Next up, talking like I was in a costume. Mouths move very weirdly but to convince this person that I was in a costume I decided to try and not move my lips as much or my tongue. After ten to fifteen minutes, I think I aced it. I said simple words and phrases with the pretend mouth gestures and then read out sentences.
       The doorbell rang with a loud noise. The little skunk grabbed a five dollar bill and soon moved behind the door and prepared to possibly be questioned about everything. My small paw opened the door and saw a man standing there whose expression changed to a weirded out one.
      “Hey there!” I said with a happy tone to the man with a reply of silence. “Oh, yeah. I was in the middle of trying out this futuristic skunk mascot costume that’s supposed to look like the real thing.”
      “Okay then… here’s the stuff you ordered…. Thanks for shopping with us.” He told me in a slow and kind of creeped out voice.
       I handed him the money for the tip with a “Thank you!” to follow it. The man waked back down the hallway and then down the stairs as I closed the door. That was a close one and I could have been seriously questioned about everything and freak out about it. The most important thing was now I had supplies to make a super suit. Slipping on the onesie, it fit me well except for one thing. It was missing a hole for my new tail. A marker was perfect to outline where my tail should pop out at and also a hole for my scent gland to be exposed and be able to use to spray enemies. The onesie fit perfectly after cutting both the holes into the fabric and trying it on again. I kind of felt like a superhero already who just needed a super suit makeover. It was hard to get a hold of scissors in my new paws. They definitely were not made for making super suits. I did get the gold fabric cut evenly and was able to sew it onto the blank purple onesie with a sewing machine.

       It took up to 4 hours to finally get all the gold sewed on the supersuit. It looked very good in my opinion. The gold shined bright against the purple and it actually shined well in the moonlight. After I put the supersuit on again, it looked really nice and almost looked professional. Next up was the gloves. They were the same shade of purple that the onesie was which was good for me. I sewed the gold fabric on the gloves at almost the exact same place they stopped at the end of my arms near my wrist. Each glove looked like a continuation of the arm and also had a perfect fit. I was pretty proud of myself for how good this super suit was looking compared to what I thought it was going to turn up like.
       I put the gloves on as soon as they were finished and then slid the golden boots on. My supersuit was almost completed except for a couple more things. I took the purple mask and cut two holes in it. Both holes were for the eyes and were cut around the same size as Spiderman’s were cut. I cut out two pieces of the white see through fabric that were the same size but just a little bigger so I could hot glue them on the mask. Up next, was the black fabric which served as an outline of the masks white eyes and also a thing to hide the super glue that was used on the white see through fabric. I needed this to look professional and see through. After, I took a while to sew the gold onto the mask, I put it on for the first time and could actually see out of it. The mask fit like a charm and totally went along with the whole supersuit to make up a new superhero for the city.
       Even though the super suit looked finished, it wasn’t. I want to add a sort of accessory that will look cool with the gold and purple. My paws grabbed the poncho and started to cut away. They just kept on cutting away until a clear plastic cloak was sitting at the table. I took the rest of the white fabric and cut out a big spider web that I later glued to the inside of the plastic cloak I made. It looked cool with a giant spider web tied around my neck and flowing down my back. I felt that it made the super suit very unique and special to a certain superhero.
