The ring was said to have belonged to a great enchantress thousands of years ago. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8BeVOclr2
It was stolen by one of Delancey's ancestors for his wife. He was dying of some unknown disease and the ring was meant as something to remember him by, but he unwittingly left her so much more. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwDRFifXnu
The ring was not only immensely beautiful but also tremendously powerful. It gave the young widow power's she could never have otherwise imagined and she struggled to learn how to control them. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRkv6lKVtC
When she found out she was pregnant, she was devastated. How could she raise a child and protect that same child from her true identity? So, she made a choice. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfEsoSCI4r
Delancey was the tenth Black Widow, which was the name given to a girl born to the ring-bearer. When she turned eighteen, she would inherit the ring from her mother and take on the powers bestowed by the ring. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfsvKxV1Uq
She would develop a quick and agile style of movement as well as an incredible predator's eye. Her deadliest weapon however and the one which gave her the name of the Black Widow was the ability to call upon spiders for help.1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTwTyiPbvY
There was only one problem; Delancey was terrified of spiders. Nobody knew but Delancey herself and she intended to keep it that way. If anyone found out the consequences could be disastrous. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE61GxlUbjX
There was no particular ceremony to the passing over of the ring. Delancey's mother simply put it in a jewellery box and wrapped it up. When Delancey slipped on the ring she expected to feel something. She expected to feel some kind of sensation, as if something was igniting within her, but she felt nothing.1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUqJZxErLE
As the party wore on, Delancey became increasingly agitated. At around midnight she decided to take a walk and hoped it would run off some steam. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5I6RGwyPI
She walked down the sidewalk with ease despite the heels she wore and soon she found herself in a lesser known part of town. The crushing of leaf underfoot caused Delancey to gasp; she was being followed. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWuDPJDawv
Following her instincts, she span around and dropped to the ground. She looked up and saw a tall, burly man staring back at her. His feet were set wide apart and his fists were clenched.1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUROHqVBZtg
"Delancey doll, it's nice to see you again," he drawled. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNUyqnQkwV
Delancey rose to her feet slowly and deliberately. "I don't know who you are, but I don't appreciate being followed," she murmured. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDfMFP64yI
"You don't remember me?" he asked, feigning hurt as he place a hand over his heart. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPvS79Dofg
"What do you want?" 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5bKrNbG8L
"What do I want doll? Your ring, that's what I want," he said, taking a step towards her. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHke0SLGhZb
She launched herself at him, landing with her feet planted firmly against his chest. He toppled over and hit the ground with a thud. He grabbed her ankles, flipping her over. He moved his fist to send a blow to her cheek but she caught his fist, forcing his arm backwards. He screamed in agony as a loud crack was heard.1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZpPavEIaG
"My arm!" he howled, as he drew a knife from his pocket. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa3A15RSjc
Delancey froze, she'd never been taught how to deal with assailants carrying knives. Guns were easy enough to deal with; you could easily kick a gun out of someone's hand, but knives were another story. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaNUzkviHD
She took a deep breath, as her index finger reached for the ring. He was fumbling around, trying to grow accustomed to holding the knife in his left hand. Suddenly, he let out a high pitched scream and fell away from her. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP5DlWr5Og
She too held back a scream, shuddering, as a mass of spiders crawled over his seemingly lifeless body. She scrambled backwards, but they moved over the man and continued towards her. She wanted to tear the ring off and run but she couldn't; she was rooted to the spot. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjyGsXfsu6
As each spider found it's way onto her body however, she became more and more relaxed. The crawling creatures no longer bothered her and she knew from then on that she need not be afraid. 1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS8UPbddbJ
She was a Black Widow and she would stand and fight.1261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYFefijh96
