Chapter 1:

Peter had never been so excited before today.

Ten minutes before the bell rang to go home, he was sitting in his study, combing his hair with a comb while looking in a mirror.

"Wow Peter. I've never seen you be so obsessed about how you look." replied Michelle, looking up from her sketchpad.

"Last night I had that dream again." replied Peter.

"That dream where you save Stark Industries from space pirates and robots?" asked Michelle. "And get promoted to be an Avenger?"

Peter pulled out his assignment book and opened it up to today's date. There, surrounded by pictures of Avengers, was "New Avenger Announcement Today".

"Today's the announcement of the new Avenger!" Peter exclaimed.

"Shh!" the teacher told him.

"Wonder who it's going to be." replied Michelle. "Let's just ask Spider Man's many awesome battles he's helped win!"

"SHH!" the teacher exclaimed.

The bell rang, indicating the end of the school day.

Peter jumped up, grabbed his backpack, and eagerly walked out of the school.

"I'm ready, promotion! I'm ready, promotion!" he sang.


Tony was in his lab, working on fixing the glove on his iron man suit, and walked over to the balcony to get some fresh air. He looked over and screamed when he saw Spider Man against the wall to the right of him.

"Peter! What are you doing here?" Tony asked.

"I have to tell you something Mr. Stark." replied Peter.

"Can't it wait until later?" asked Tony.

"There's no balcony later." replied Peter.

"What do you want?"

"I just want to let you know I'll be thanking you in my Avengers acceptance speech today."

"Please get out."

"Okay Mr. Stark!"

Peter then eagerly climbed down the wall of the balcony.

"That kid is going to be the end of me." sighed Tony, walking inside.


Once patrols were over, Peter was walking to the ceremony when Ned and Michelle caught up to him.

"Is that the new Avenger I sense?" asked Ned. "Congratulations buddy!"

"Thanks Ned. And after the big promotion, we're going to party til we're purple!" Peter exclaimed.

"I love being purple!" Ned exclaimed.

"We're going to the place where all the action is!" Peter exclaimed.

"You don't mean..." asked Ned eagerly.

"We're going to get ice cream!" Peter exclaimed. "I've got to get going. See you at the ceremony!"

"See you there!" Ned called.

"I'm ready, promotion, I'm ready, promotion. " Peter sang as he walked down the street.


"Good afternoon Queens! I'm reporter Elizabeth Brant, here live from the new Avengers initiation ceremony, where we welcome a new avenger member to the world's beloved team!" Elizabeth announced. Tony Stark and Pepper Potts walked past.

"Congratulations Mr. Stark!" exclaimed Elizabeth.

"Thank you!" replied Tony.

"What inspired you to add a new Avenger to the ranks of the world's mightiest heroes?" asked Elizabeth.

"It's all about making sure someone who wants to make the world a better place can work with us and help change the world." replied Tony.

Meanwhile, Justin Hammer was sitting in Hammer Industries at his desk. watching the news unfold on his laptop.

"Curses!" he shouted. "It's not fair! Stark and his wife are being interviewed by news reporters, and I haven't sold a single piece of technology!"

Hammer looked at his array of laptops around his desk before sighing and putting his head on his desk as his secretary walked in.

"Don't get worked up again Justin." sighed his secretary. "I just polished the desk."

"Oh Carol, If I only managed to take Stark's success, all of his ideas, then I'd be even richer than him!" Hammer exclaimed. "I've exhausted every plan in my filing cabinet, A to Y."

"A to Y?" asked Carol.

"Yeah, A to Y. You know, the alphabet." replied Justin.

"What about Z?"

"Z?"

"Yeah, Z. The letter after Y."

Justin opened his desk drawer, rifling through papers until he found the file labeled Z.

"Plan Z!" exclaimed Hammer. "Here it is! Just like you said!"

"Oh boy." sighed Carol, walking out of the room.


Justin walked out of his corporation and into town, looking at Plan Z.

"Oh, it's evil." he said. "It's diabolical." He smelled it. "It's lemon scented."

Hammer looked up at the crowd of people walking to Avengers Tower.

"Enjoy today Stark! Because by tomorrow, I'll have your ideas! And then everyone will go to Hammer Corporations, and I will rule the world!" Hammer exclaimed. "ALL HAIL HAMMER! ALL HAIL HAM-"

And then he was knocked into by an eager fifth teen year old teenage boy.

"Oh! Sorry Mr. Hammer!" Peter apologized. "Are you on your way to the New Avenger ceremony?"

"No, I'm not on my way to the 'new Avenger ceremony'." replied Hammer, recollecting himself. "I'm busy trying to plan to take over the world!"

"Well, good luck with that." replied Peter, walking around him. "I'm ready, promotion, I'm ready, promotion-"

"Stupid kid." replied Hammer, shaking his head as he walked away.


All of New York (and then some) had gathered in front of Avenger's tower to see the new Avenger being revealed as Tony Stark walked onstage.

"Welcome, welcome everyone to the new avenger ceremony!" exclaimed Tony.

"We paid five dollars for this?" asked Michelle to Flash.

"I paid twenty!" Flash responded.

Peter was standing in the crowd, eagerly bouncing up and down.

"Now, the moment you've all been waiting for, the name of our new hero!" exclaimed Tony.

"YEAH! NOW WE'RE TALKING!" exclaimed Peter from the crowd, applauding.

"A loyal, hardworking hero." replied Tony.

Yes. thought Peter.

"The obvious choice for the job."

He's right.

"His first name is Peter."

It's obviously me.

"Please welcome our new Avenger!" Tony exclaimed. "Peter Quill, otherwise known as the amazing Starlord!"

"YES! YEAH! ALRIGHT!" Peter exclaimed, walking onstage, shaking Peter Quill's (who was on his way up onstage) hand. "Better luck next year. Yeah! Alright!"

Peter stepped up to the microphone as Tony facepalmed.

"People of New York, as new Avenger-" began Peter before Tony tapped him on the shoulder. "Hold up. I'm getting an important news flash from Mr. Stark. Go ahead Mr. Stark."

Tony whispered something to Peter.

"I'm making a complete what of myself?" Peter asked.

Tony whispered something else.

"The most embarrassing thing you ever saw?"

Tony whispered another thing.

"And now it's worse because I'm repeating everything you say into the microphone?"

"Peter." replied Tony as calmly as he could. "You didn't get the job."

"What?" aske Peter.

"You. Are. Not. An. Avenger." replied Tony.

"But why?" asked Peter.

"Look, it's nothing against you." replied Tony. "You're a great hero. But I gave the job to GalaxyKing-"

"Starlord." corrected Starlord.

"-because it's a big responsibility." replied Tony. "And well... he's more mature than you."

"I'm not mature?" asked Peter, sounding hurt.

"I mean this in the nicest of ways." replied Tony. "There's a word for you... and that word is... um..."

"Dork?" asked Flash.

"No. That's not right. Not a dork." replied Tony.

"A goofball?" asked Wanda.

"Closer, but no." replied Tony.

"A ding a ling?" Michelle guessed.

"A wingnut?" asked Liz.

"A Knucklehead McSpazington!" exclaimed Flash.

"Who said you could go twice?" snapped Tony. He looked back at Peter.

"What I'm saying is, you're a kid. And to be an Avenger, you have to be more... manly. You understand?" Tony responded as kindly as he could think.

"I...I guess so Mr. Stark." replied Peter, still sounding hurt but trying to hide it. "Anyways... congratulations Mr...um..."

"STARLORD!" exclaimed Starlord. "Why does nobody know who I am?"

"Congratulations. May the Avengers greet you with open arms." Peter told Starlord.

Peter walked off the stage.

"Peter-" began Tony as Peter walked away, sad.

"I'm ready... depression." replied Peter, walking back into the crowd. "I'm ready... depression."


Just then, Ned ran up to the crowd, throwing a basket of red and blue glitter in the air while wearing a t shirt reading "Go Peter!" over his clothes.

"Go Spiderman!" he exclaimed, throwing another handful of glitter in the air.

The crowd stared at him a second before walking inside Avengers Tower to continue the celebration, leaving Ned alone.

"Let's hear it for Peter! Guys?" asked Ned. "Where did everybody go? Did I miss something?"

I am a little confused on who should be King Neptune and Princess Mindy, however. If you guys have any ideas, please let me know in the comments!

I understand I missed some parts, but they'll be incorporated later.

Hopefully, this clears up some Endgame sadness.

Thanks for reading!
