Prologue: *1

"Not happening, Stark! All of these other heroes are a joke! A joke barely worthy of my SONIC LAUGH! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" as the Hobglobin blasts four Avengers: Captain America, Black Widow, Wolverine, and Spider-Woman. All are trying to cover their ears against the sonic onslaught.

Suddenly flying through the air, "Hobglobin right? New outfit.. same glass jaw." Spider-Man kicks Hobgoblin in the head. " Spider-Man somersaults and notices at the edge of his peripheral vision three robots controlled by Osborn ready to blast Spider-Woman. He shoots a line that snags the roof a nearby tall building and swings towards her.

"Hark - Fair Spider-Woman! How art thou?" as he grabs her around the waist and swings her away twisting and turning, following his Spider sense, as the three robots attempt to repetitively blast them in their ever changing position. Spider-Man, with Spider-Woman in his arms, lands them both in a safe area away from the robots.

"Is that really you Pete?" Jess said.

"It is I, but..how?" Spider-Mans was surprised that Spider-Woman recognized him. It was only just hours ago, Octavius had purged himself from Spider-Man's body - but how can she tell? The two Spiders stare at each other as if they can see each other's soul through their respective lens, a wordless communication.

Suddenly, another robot crashing down brings them both back to reality. Miquel O'hara aka Spiderman 2099 has ripped the wires out of one robot.

"You and your special earpiece. Smart, well smart guy, you can chase me ... or save the Boss' little hostage. Just remember, when the Goblin King gets bored, he gets creative." says the fleeing Hobglobin.

"We can catch him," Miguel says to Peter. Spider-Woman goes back on the offensive venom blasting a robot.

"No time. I finally triangulated the signal guiding the robots... it's coming from the Oscorp Building, which means his 'Boss' is there too. That's how we end this."

"The help's appreciated, Spider-Man, but I thought you quit the team," Captain America said as he bashed another robot with his shield."

"I did? Like that's even possible, Cap. You know what they say, 'Once an Avenger...'" Before Spider-Man finishes his response, the sight of the Hobgoblin heading towards the Oscorp building attracts his attention. "Hold the fort, we Spider-Guys are off to shut this down at the source!" The two Spider-Men leap up in the air, shooting web lines onto the nearest tall building, and head towards the Oscorp Building.

"Two of them now, eh? At least one sounds right for a change!" Natasha, aka Black Widow comments as she fires her two pistols. Cap responds, "We'll figure it out later... when we've taken our city back."
