It was springtime in New York City 1995. Spider-Man was standing on top of a building looking around. "What a beautiful day it is today." Spider-Man lifted his left arm up and pointed it at the next building. Hitting the switch on his web shooters, he shot a web line to the building. He then jumped off and swung to the next building and with his right hand shot another web line. Spider-Man kept swinging around the city as his daily routine. When he got to the Daily Bugle, he went to the alley and changed to his street cloths. A tall skinny man, slightly built came out of the alley. His name was Peter Parker a.k.a. Spider-Man. He walked into the Bugle so he could turn in his pictures of his latest battle against Venom. He sold his pictures while enduring yet another round of verbal abuse from J. Jonah Jameson. When he finished, he headed back out to the alley. Peter changed back to his Spider-Man costume and crawled up the side of the building. He got to the top and started swinging downtown. His spider sense buzzed lightly, so he stopped at the side of an office building. He looked around and noticed nothing. He started swinging again. About halfway back home to meet Mary Jane for lunch, his spider sense went of like fireworks. He lost control for a bit, and he had a hard time getting to the top of a building to see what caused it to go off. He looked around again and noticed nothing around. "My spider sense must be off today." He looked around again and his spider sense went off again knocking him to the ground. It caused him to black out due to the verity of the ringing of danger. A strange sound emanated from his surroundings as a light source ignighted from within Spider-Man, encompassing him in a aura of magnificent light as he vanished into nothingness. The magnificent bright light faded away, leaving nothing but a white spot were Spider-Man had blacked out, while the other parts of the roof were covered with a black charred substance.

BUBBLEGUM SPIDER

Spider-Man woke up his head pounding. "Man, anybody get the number of that building." He tried to stand up but he was too wobbly. All Spidey succeeded in doing was falling on his backside. He just sat there trying to clear the cobwebs outs of his head (no pun intended). Breathing heavily, he sat up and leaned against a wall. Spider-Man looked around and tried to get his bearings. He then noticed he was not in New York anymore. "Well Spidey looks like you're not in Wonderland anymore," he muttered to himself. Spidey finally stood up and climbed down the wall. He was in an alley, so he changed cloths and walked out of the alleyway into the open area of sidewalk. He walked to a newspaper stand and read the headline, Mega-Toyko 2032. Peter looked around in shock. "How in the hell can I understand, talk and read Japanese? It can't be 2032." He walked down the street, all the while looking around and trying to make sense of this. "How in the hell did I end up here and in this time. I wonder why I ended up here?" He remembered his Spider sense. "It warned me of danger but I thought it was acting up. There I go again not paying attention to it." He was walking around without any idea where he was going when he noticed a black car drive by him. As it passed, his spider sense went off. He looked at the black car and got an unnatural feeling. This time he decided to listen to his Spider sense. He ducked into the alley and changed back to his Spidey costume. As Spider-Man followed the black car, he heard a voice calling out to someone. He noticed the black car stopping in front of a young lady. He swung in close to see what was happening. It was then that he noticed another young lady running towards the black car and calling the other girl's name. "IRENE!"

Spidey watched as a tall blonde stepped out of the car. His Spidey sense went wild. The boomer picked up the young girl. Spidey noticed the long metal nails come out of the lady's hand. He swung and shot a web line that snagged the boomer and yanked her away from the young girl. "Hey lady you need to trim your nails there." The boomer looked over at the costumed person and she fired the metal nails at him. Spider-Man easily dodged the metal nails and shot another web line to her arm and yanked it. There was a loud sound of metal being torn away from the boomer's body. The arm came off and Spider-Man noticed it was a robot of some kind. "What are you? A Terminator in drag?" Linna arrived at the bridge and noticed what was going on. She was stunned by what she saw. Linna saw a light coming closer from down the street. She knew it was Priss on her bike. Spider-Man shot another stream of webbing at the boomers eyes and started running towards the boomer. He flipped over the boomer and in mid flip he grabbed the boomer's head and twisted it off in a swift quick movement. As Spider-Man landed behind the boomer, he came around with a kick, which took the boomer off its feet and sent it over the bridge railing.

Priss arrived at the scene and stood by Linna. Priss was in awe at this costumed person who took out a boomer without a hardsuit. She simply stared as the boomer crash-landed right in front of her bike. After Spidey finished off the boomer, he looked at the young lady who had passed out. He gently picked her up. Since they were on a bridge, Spidey shot a web line out and swung down to the two women at the bottom of the bridge. When he arrived by Priss and Linna, he gave Linna the young lady. Spider-Man then gave a flamboyant bow to the ladies before him. As he was leaving. Priss and Linna yelled out to him. "Who are you.' "I am just you friendly neighborhood Spider-Man." With that, he shot a web line at a lamppost and climbed up. When he got to the top he saw a building of to the right and shot a web line out. He was out of site in no time. Priss and Linna looked at each other. "Sylia is not going to believe this Priss." "I know what you mean Linna."

Spider-Man swung to the building to pick up his camera and clothes where he left them. After picking up his stuff he swung around for two blocks. Spider-Man stopped on a side of a building. "What was that thing that I just fought? Never saw anything like that before. Well at least I got some great pictures of the fight. Now all I need to do is find a place to live and work." Spider-Man sat on the side of the building watching his surroundings and thinking. He looked down and noticed the three ladies from earlier on. Since he was hanging from the side of the building, it was pretty easy to hear their conversation. "Priss why are we stopping?" asked Linna. "I'm calling Sylia, I can't carry both of you on this bike, so we're going to need a lift," replied Priss as she climbed off the motorcycle. Spider-Man watched as the trio entered a coffee shop. He climbed down the building and changed his cloths again. "I'm getting pretty good at these quick changes."

Peter Parker walked out from the darkness and into the coffee shop where the trio of ladies went. As he walked into the shop, the bell over the door rang. Linna looked up and noticed the stranger walk in. Peter glanced over where the trio of ladies was sitting and nodded his head at them. Peter walked up to the counter where the waitress was standing. "Hi, I was wondering if you take American money?" asked Peter. "Yes we do," replied the waitress. Peter placed his order with the waitress, walked over to a booth and sat down. Linna stared at the stranger for a moment and then turned her attention back to Priss. "He's kind of handsome don't you think Priss." "Yeah, he looks ok, why don't you go over there and talk to him Linna. I mean aren't you looking for a new boyfriend? Again." "Well you know," began Linna before the full force of Priss' comment hit. "Why don't you shut up Priss, and keep an eye on Irene" growled Linna as she got up and walked over to the stranger's table.

Peter saw the young lady get out of her seat and walk over to him slowly. "Hello there," began Linna. " I overheard you mention something about American money to the Waitress?" "Yes I did," replied Peter. "Well I was wondering if you're an American.," inquired Linna. "That is what I am," replied Peter. "Do you mind if I sit?" "No by all means have a seat. My name is Peter Parker." "Nice to meat you Peter. My name is Linna." "Nice to meet you Linna, What is wrong with your friend over there?" inquired Peter as he glanced in Irene's direction. "She was almost run over by a car. She's in a little of a stunned state." "Oh I see. What's your other friend name?" "Her name is Priss. We couldn't all fit on her bike, so we are waiting for a friend to give us a lift." "OK. The three of you on a bike would've been a sight to see."

"So Peter if you don't mind me asking? What do you do for a living?" "I was a freelance photographer in New York City, but I decided to see if I could get a job over here. Everything's going pretty well so far, but I'm still looking for a place to stay." Linna reached into her pocket and pulled out a card of some sort. "Here you might want to give this place a try. I could show it to you later if you like?" "Sure that will be nice. Do you know of a good newspaper office close by?" "Yeah I do, it's called the Mega-Toyko Bugle" "Thanks for the help Linna. How about I meet you at this place say in three hours?" "Ok I'll meet you there Peter" Linna got up and walked back over to Priss and sat back down. Peter got up walked to the counter and paid his bill. Peter then walked over to where Linna and Priss were sitting. "Nice to meet you Linna" Linna looked at Peter and smiled. Peter then bowed to them and walked away with a smile on his face. Priss and Linna looked at each other like they had seen that bow before then went back to waiting for Mackie to pick them up.

Peter mentions he got a job in this paragraph, but he doesn't go to the Bugle until later. This'll need to be rearranged a little. I went ahead and change the reference to the job.

Flash Back 1995

Meanwhile, back in New York City, early in the morning before Spider-Man's disappearance, two guards were walking down the hallway in the place called the Vault. They were making their rounds of the place. Currently, they were passing the cell of C. Kasady A.K.A Carnage. As the guards passed his cell, the prison alarms went off. The two guards turned around and saw a bright light coming from Kasady's cell. After the light faded away, the guards ran back to Kasady cell to find him still siting there.

Later in the day, back at Peter and Mary Jane Parker's apartment, Mary Jane was sitting by the window. "Peter where are you? You always call if you are going to be late." Mary Jane got up and walked over to the TV to turn it on. She sat down as the news came on. "Good afternoon people of New York. This is you host Dan Mills. The top story this afternoon is the disappearance of Spider-Man caught from our news helicopter." Mary Jane turned her head to the TV. "What was that?" "Here as you can see, Spider-Man looks like he is out could on top of a roof." They showed the footage as Mary Jane watched it really close. "After the bright light faded away you can see were Spider-Man was. The rest of the roof is charred black." Mary Jane got up and turned off the TV. Mary Jane said to herself "Oh Peter what is going on now?" as she broke down and started crying.

Meanwhile in Mary Jane's apartment building, three people entered the elevator. One was a man in a wheel chair, one was a female and the other was a man who wore ruby read glasses. The elevator reached the floor and all three people came out of the elevator, stopping in front of an apartment door. The man with the ruby red glasses knocked on the door. Mary Jane heard the knock on the door and walked over to open it up. When Mary Jane opened the door she was surprised to see the man in the wheel chair. " Professor Xavier" "Hello Mary Jane how are you?" "Fine I guess. Where are my manners, please come in." "Thanks Mary Jane. I do believe you know Scott Summers and Jean Gray?" "Hello Jean and Scott, nice to see you again" "Same here." They both chimed in. "Sorry to hear about Peter Mary Jane" " Thanks Charles, but you didn't have come way down here to tell me." "I know but I have something very important to show you." "What is it?" "Scott put in the tape for Mary Jane." Scott Summers put the tape in and pressed the play button. Mary Jane was very shocked to see who was on the tape. "As you can see Mary Jane, this happened early in the morning before it got Spider-Man, and since Spider-Man was part of the X-Men for a while, I came to give you my support." "Thanks professor, it means a lot to me when other super heroes care for other people." "Well if you need anything you can contact me through this COM badge, and if we find out anything we will contact you. Ok?" "Thanks again professor." With that Mary Jane gave Xavier, Scott and Jean a small hug for thanks. After that they left Mary Jane to be by herself.

End of Flash Back

Mackie carried Linna and Irene to Sylia's place, while Priss followed them on her bike. When they arrived at Sylia's, Irene was still in shock from her close encounter with the female boomer. They placed her in Sylia's guestroom so she could get some rest. Once Irene was settled in, everyone returned to Sylia's living room. Sylia sat in a chair with a cup of tea, while Priss and Linna sat down on the couch. "Now, would someone kindly tell me exactly what happened tonight?" asked Sylia as she sipped on her tea. "Well, it started like this..." began Linna.

"Then he bowed and ran off, or swung off, or whatever you wanna call it," finished Priss. Sylia had been listening intently as Priss and Linna took turns relaying the nights events to her. "I still can't believe it," Priss said out loud. "Well, it's definitely an interesting story. I'll have Nene look into it. It's hard to miss someone in blue and red beating up boomers." "There was something weird about him Sylia," stated Linna. "What was it Linna?" "Well he didn't act like a beginner, it's like he has experience fighting and the power he has without armor is amazing. He took off the boomer's arm with a tug of that web line, I think that's what he called it. Then he twisted the boomer's head off with bare hands." "It's definitely something that requires investigation," said Sylia. "But that can wait for now. Our first priority is to see that Irene is all right and then get her into hiding. If someone's willing to send a boomer after her, then it's likely that they'll try again." "OK, where do we start?" Priss and Linna chimed together.

Meanwhile Peter was walking down the street towards the Mega-Toyko Bugle, thinking about Mary Jane. "I hope she's not mad at me for disappearing like this." Peter finally arrived at The Mega-Toyko Bugle. Peter reached into his pocket and pulled out a roll of film as he entered the building. After he entered the building, someone called to him from his left. "Can I help you mister?" Peter looked over to his left and noticed a guard station. He walked over to the station, "Yes you can? Can I see someone in charge? I'm a freelance photographer and I got film they might like for the next edition." "Sure hold on a second, what's your name son." "It is Peter Parker." Peter went over to the couch over by the wall and waited for someone to come down.

Peter was not left waiting long. He heard the elevator door open. Out walked a tall lady with long black hair wearing glasses. She walked with long strides and was very sexy looking. She walked up to Peter and introduced herself. "Hello Mr. Parker my name is Ms. Jade Matsumoto." "Hello Ms. Matsumoto. Please call me Peter." "Ok Peter, you can call me Jade. So what can I do for you?" "I have some pictures of a guy name Spider-Man. He's been showing up in places around here." Ms. Matsumoto looked a little shocked. She remembered Spider-Man from when she was a child. He saved her life once. "What's wrong Jade you look like you seen a ghost" Jade looked at Peter. "Well Peter Spider-Man saved my life when I was a kid living in New York" Peter kept a calm face. " Well Peter let get these pictures developed." Peter followed Jade into the elevator. "Peter are you the son of Peter Parker who took Spider-Man pictures long ago." Peter had to make up a story fast. "Yes Jade the one and only son of Peter Parker." Peter started to sweat a little.
"What made you decide to come to Japan?" asked Jade.

"Mainly I was looking for a change. It was a bit unexpected, but the opportunity to come
over here presented itself, and it was to good to pass up. I must admit the idea of moving
over here without already having a job was a little unnerving, but I decided I'd better take
the chance." Peter sighed as he finished his brief explanation, hoping Jade's questions
wouldn't become to detailed. Making this up on the fly wasn't easy.

"Well, I'm glad you took the chance. Otherwise I wouldn't have these pictures," said Jade
as she waved toward the pictures of Spiderman. "These are very good shots Peter. They'll
look very good in tomorrows edition. If you're still looking for a job, why don't you work
for the Bugle. We could use a good photographer."

Peter put on a wide grin. "Thanks for the offer. I accept. I could really use the job
right now, and I think I'll like working here," replied Peter.

"Good, when can you start?" asked Jade.

"Well, how about in a couple of days? I've still got some things to get squared away, and
I'd like some time to settle in."

"Ok Peter, I'll see you to two days. Come to my office when you get here."

Peter waved goodbye to Jade as he left the Bugle. He was hoping he had enough time to make it to his meeting with Linna. He thought he had plenty of time, but he wasn't sure how long it would take to get to the address where he'd meet Linna. "Well, I'd better get moving," said Peter as he started off down the street.

As Peter left, Jade headed back to her office. "He seems nice enough, but it never hurts to be cautious," said Jade to herself as she settled behind her desk. "It's time to do a routine check on Peter Parker." Minutes turned into hours as Jade started her background check. Things would have gone quicker, if there'd been anything to find. However, Peter Parker had no records, other than those of another Peter Parker, but those records ended in 1995. "Well, he may seem like a nice guy, but he's definitely
lying about something," thought Jade. "It can't be the same person. So the question is, why has he taken some else's identity? He's definitely not this Peter Parker's son either. If Parker disappeared in 1995, even if he had a son that year, his son would be in his middle to late 30's by now."

All Jade was able to do was come up with more questions. Hiring someone off the cuff like that wasn't something she normally did, but Peter had left a good impression. Jade was a woman who trusted her instincts, and her instincts were telling her to give Peter a chance. So, that's what she decided to do. "Peter's definitely got some explaining to do, but the least I can do is give him the benefit of the doubt," with that thought, Jade ended her search for information on Peter Parker. "I guess this will have to wait until I see Peter again."

Mean while the Knight Saber's were fighting a pair of C-55 boomers. "This is to easy tonight Sylia." Priss said. "Let's go home Sabers." Sylia announced. When the Sabers got back Linna got dressed in a hurry. "What's your hurry Linna" Priss inquired. " I got to meet Peter at the apartment complex so I can show him the place." "Can I come Linna I want to meet this guy you been talking about" " I am coming to he is good looking " Priss replied. "Sure you all can come but lets hurry ok." "OK" Nena and Priss replied.

Peter was waiting outside the building for Linna to arrive. He was surprised when he saw the group coming down the street. Linna was leading the way, with someone he didn't recognize walking beside her, and with Priss beside the stranger. Peter waved before he greeted the new arrivals. "Hi Linna, how's it going?"

"Things are going pretty good Peter. You remember Priss," she said, indicating her friend. "And this is Nena, another friend of ours. Nena, this is Peter Parker."

"Pleased to meet you," piped up Nena cheerfully.

"It's nice to meet you too," said Peter.

"Now that's everyone's been introduced, why don't I show you the apartment," said Linna as she headed into the building, followed closely by Peter and the others. Not much was said on the way to the apartment. Linna lead the way into the apartment and began to show Peter around.

"It's a nice place," said Peter as they finished the tour. "When can I move in?" Peter was feeling pretty lucky. So far he'd landed a job and found a nice place to stay. Not bad job for a misplaced Spiderman.

"You can move in tonight if you'd like. I'll go ahead and give you the keys now" replied Linna. "I'm glad you like the place. You're pretty lucky because it hasn't been free for long."

"Thanks for all the help. If it's all right with you I'd like to go ahead and get some rest. It's been a really long day for me, and I'm really beat. How do I get in touch with you to settle the paperwork for the apartment?" asked Peter.

"I'll come by tomorrow and we can get everything taken care of," replied Linna. She started heading for the door and the others followed suit. "See ya," said Priss. "Nice to meet you," said Nena as she headed out the door. As the door closed behind the girls, Peter settled into one of the chairs and before he knew it, he was sound asleep.

As Peter was falling asleep in the chair a bright flash of light was shinning down in the sewers of Tokyo. The light vanished as fast as it came. It left a red and black substance on the ground. The red and black substance starting to move slowly. Wondering were it host has gone to. Then it started sliding it's way across the sewer floor looking for a new host to occupy. As this strange life form was sliding under Tokyo and under Peter's apartment building Peter's spider went off very lightly that it did not even wake Peter up.

The next morning Jade was getting the morning addition ready to go out. She was looking over Peter's pictures. She noticed how good they were and at different angles. She also picked up an old paper from 1995 and noticed they were quit similar to each other. "I just have to wait till Peter come in to ask these questions." Jade put up the pictures and went back to work.

Sylia woke up to her alarm and got up to download the morning paper. She hits the print button and walks over the bathroom to take a shower while the paper is printing. Linna woke up after a sound sleep. She opened her door to grab the paper as she opens it she noticed the headline. Linna dose not recall seeing Peter there at the time that sisturation was going on. She picks up the phone and call Priss. Priss wakes up and looks at the phone. "Hello this better be good" "Hello Priss this is Linna check the paper" "Ok I will."

Back at AD police headquarter Officer Mako Cutie was walking into the ADP building. She had just gotten out of the police academy, and today was her first day on the force. She's been assigned with officer Leon's division. "Welcome to the force kid," greeted Leon "That is officer Mako Cutie Leon. Don't forget it ok," said the chief. "Ok officer Mako," replied Leon. "Let's get to our briefing. We've got another weird person running around Tokyo." "You mean Spider-Man officer McNichol," inquired Officer Mako. "Yes Mako that's him. I saw him in the morning paper. And why don't you drop that officer McNichol business. Everyone around here calls me Leon," stated Leon "Alright officer... I mean Leon," replied Mako.

As they headed for the briefing room, Mako began to study her new surroundings. It was still hard to believe she'd actually been accepted to the AD Police. The office definitely looked different than she expected. Parts of the building appeared extremely well organized. But the office area where Leon and his companions sat was a different story. It wasn't as orderly as she'd expected, but then again, she hadn't expected anything normal. After all, how could you call people that enjoyed chasing down killer robots normal. And from what she'd been able to find out before starting, Leon definitely enjoyed his work.

"Say, why don't we grab something to eat tonight. You know, sort of an official welcome to the department." Said Leon. Something else Mako had discovered during her research were a few facts about the different people working in her new department. One of those facts plainly stated that Leon McNichol would hit on anyone he thought was pretty, and while he wasn't a bad guy, this was something to watch out for. Mako would have to thank one of her friends for that particular piece of information. "That's ok, I wouldn't want to put you to any trouble. Besides, I've already got plans tonight," stated Mako. "How about tomorrow night?" questioned Leon. "I'll be pretty much tied up for a while, what with starting the new job and all. I'll let you know when I've got some free time," replied Mako. "Uhh... Sure, ok," mumbled Leon as they walked into the briefing room.

"Well let's get started," said the chief as he brought the briefing to order. "This is what we know so far," began the chief.

After the briefing was over, Mako and Leon were headed for a cup of coffee. "What do you think Leon?" asked Mako. "I think we should head over to the bugle and have a look around. Maybe we can talk to the editor, but at the very least I want to find the photographer who took these shots. Maybe he'll be able to tell us more than we already know."

"What do we already know?" asked Mako. "Well, some guy's running around Tokyo in red and blue tights picking fights with boomers. I'd say we know that there's another nutcase on the loose. We know there's something different about the guy, since he actually lived through that boomer fight," replied Leon. "Maybe there's something hidden under that suit that gives him that strength. Then again, maybe he's a boomer too," speculated Leon. "That's about it."

"It's not a lot to go on is it?" "No, it's not, but we've started investigations with less information than this," replied Leon. "Well, I was hoping I'd get an interesting position after I got out of the academy, and it looks like I've found it," said Mako.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was late at night, and Madigan had decided to go for a brief walk. With all the trouble Mason had been causing lately, she needed some time to clear her head. It wasn't that Mason really knew what he was doing. He had a good idea occasionally, but he could never do anything without his ego getting in the way. There was one word that described Mason fairly well, annoying. That annoyance would have to be dealt with, eventually. With these thoughts parading through Madigan's head, she continued her walk, her lone bodyguard keeping a respectful distance, lest he find himself on the scrap heap.

Meanwhile, a life form new to this time and place made its way from the sewers of Mega-Tokyo into an alley. This life form was in search of something, a host.

Madigan came across a coffee shop and decided to stop in for a cup. "It might help to take the chill from my bones," she thought to herself. Something had been bothering her lately, but she just couldn't put her finger on what it was. Pondering over what she must have missed during the day, Madigan didn't notice a black car as it drove by.

After an hour in the coffee shop, Madigan decided it was time to get back to business. "I've indulged myself enough for one night," she thought to herself. She got up, walked over to the counter, and paid her bill. Her bodyguard, who'd been sitting in a different booth, followed her from the coffee shop. As she left the coffee shop, the black car turned on its lights. Madigan's bodyguard boomer immediately jumped in front of her and shed its human form. The boomer was blown to pieces by the blast from a high caliber weapon fired from its right. Witnessing this, Madigan simply said "Shit!" and began to run down the street. As she passed an alleyway, the car began to speed up. The dark tinted window on the back driver's side started to come down. Madigan heard tires grind to a stop and chanced a look behind her. As she turned, she noticed Mason in the back of the car. Before she could continue her dash down the street, there was a sound like a car backfiring. Madigan felt a sharp pin in her chest. She looked down and noticed her blood, as it began to pump from her body. She stumbled into the nearby alley and fell down. "Damn you Mason," was all she said as she blacked out.

In that same alley, the unknown life form saw what happened. Hoping it wasn't too late, the life form made its way toward the fallen woman. As it approached her, it could sense that she was not dead. The life form slithered onto her body and into the wound in her chest. As it began to merge with Madigan, the bullet popped out and Madigan's chest wound began to close. Then a blackish-red substance began coming out of her pores. People passing the alleyway heard something very evil and fled the scene. "YES! WATCH OUT PEOPLE. CARNAGE IS BACK! HA! HA! HA!" While this was happening, Madigan was still out cold from the shock of her injuries and the shock of being "joined" with Carnage. Carnage walked out of the alley and into the street. He saw a man walking by. He was just an ordinary man, on his way home, but Carnage reached out, grabbed the man's head, and snapped his neck. An evil grin spread across Carnage's face at the sound of the neck popping, and the limp body falling to the ground.

At this time, Madigan began to regain conscinousses. Almost immediately she noticed that something was wrong. Someone was invading her thoughts, probing into her mind. No, this wasn't someone, the feeling was to strange. This was definitely some THING in her mind with her. She realized she was looking through a different set of eyes as she noticed the lifeless body at her feet. From the thing in her mind, she learned what had happened. Carnage noticed the awakening of the woman's mind. It became quite surprised as it felt resistance beginning in its new host.

Madigan screamed with her mind, and with a strange new voice, "I'm NOT a COLD Blooded MURDERER."
