Authors response :) hi everyone this is Nightwing 1 due to connection problems I still don't have my own channel yet, so for this short story remainder Sport21 has been nice enough to let me post through his channel for the time being.

thank you everyone whose read and left a review it's a really sweet feeling knowing others enjoy what you wrote and the reviews have been great :) so I've decided the end result will be Spider-man and White Tigers happily ever after (eventually)

I feel I should say I don't own Marvel or any characters and my story is loosely based on Dragon Ball Z tournament episodes

thank you everyone :) I do hope you all enjoy what is to come

(also if anyone knows a good way to write inner conflict for female characters I would really appreciate the suggestions)

Latinoheat151: thank you, your review means a lot since you were one of the writters whose stories are what got me hooked on this site

Earth, 3rd rock from the sun home to many creatures and sights of exploration for multiple aliens and dimensional beings. Currently home to the great heroes: the Avengers, earths mightiest fighters. It is here that the Grand Mother has foreseen a worthy challenger.

After her brief feast in Asgard she was more determined to reach earth and satisfy her desire for battle. The Bifrost was now open to her and her handmaiden showing the path to earth.

"Grand mother we will arrive on earth in an hour but something concerning has crossed my mind. Earth is also home to the sorcerer supreme, if I remember correctly you and the ancient spell caster aren't on the best of terms" Ariel said with slight discomfort.

"hmmm you're right Ariel that senile fool does reside here but if he hasn't put that whole hair remover joke behind him by now then he's just a poor sport…besides he deserved it after pulling my under garments over my shoulders" the grand mother sourly replied.

"maybe so ma'am but still the fact remains he is on this planet and being entuned with the world he will sense your presence so please ma'am please lets refrain from causing another rift last time the Hong Kong sanctum barely survived"

The Grand Mother rolled her eyes in annoyance but nodded her head in agreement "very well Ariel"


(Earth – New York Sanctum)

Dr. Strange floated in the main room of his sanctum meditating, there was something drawing his attention. A distant vision distorted by a temporal rift, he saw a purple skinned woman with red hair standing over an injured White Tiger but was being confronted by a distorted symbol of a black spider. The temporal distortion waves affecting the vision seemed to have aged Spider-man, White Tiger appeared as he knew her now, a young woman between 17-19 but Spider-man seemed far older his physic was that of a 25 year old. clearly the vision was off.

"something is wrong who is this woman?" Strange asked himself he felt he knew of this woman something from within the eye of Agamotto was telling him she was dangerous. "show her to me my ancient master I can sense your past through the eye…who is she?"

The room was suddenly filled with a blinding white light and flashes were brought forth from the eye's gem. The woman of the vision appeared before him with the ancient one kneeling before her (with a full head of hair), Dr. Strange watched as with one flick of her index finger blew the hair off his head.

Another flash showed the same woman sealing away in her frozen tomb with a horde of beings laying tributes chanting "grand mother"

Dr. Stranges eyes snapped open and the shock of his revelation dropped him to the floor. His fingers were trembling, and at some point he had begun to sweat. The unsettling pit of fear sunk in his stomach the knowledge of the eye revealed to him the identity of the woman but he wished it hadn't… the Grand mother, a goddess of all gods with a short temperament and desire for good fight but with an insatiable appetite of another nature. He knew if she was dissatisfied humanity would perish without trace.

"the goddess of all gods, mother of deities is coming here? And for Spider-man no less surely she knows her vision is off, the boy is still far younger than she saw" Strange panicked "a goddess seeking a challenge from a mortal boy…god help us"


Elsewhere in a S.H.I.E.L.D training facility the young hero Spider-man was sparring with his friends White Tiger and Captain America. "hiya!" Tiger shouted as she scissors at Captain America but only managed to strike his shield. Captain America quickly sprung her backwards

"haha not bad White Tiger but your going to have try improvising a little, I know the shield combat manual inside and out so standard tactics won't work" Cap laughed as he charged at White Tiger throwing a fast jab which Tiger narrowly evaded.

She may have been Shields top hand to hand in the Jr. division but now she was training with Captain America the very best there was. He continued to change up his styles on the fly which Tiger struggled just to keep up with. Caps punches delivered incredible strength but it was his surprise kick that sent the young heroine flying across the pad toward the edge, skidding to a stop just shy of the edge.

Her claws dug deep into the concrete and dragged saving her from a ring out, she was not going to let Spider-man best her today.

Spider-man jumped at Captain with a flying spin kick, although Cap blocked it the force pushed him backwards a couple of feet. The wall crawlers strength always did intrigue him, he knew Spider-man was strong but never knew it's true extent because the boy always showed restraint no matter the opponent he relied on his brains instead of brawn which the super soldier respected.

Cap threw a high kick striking Spider-man in the chin forcing the young hero into a backflip "ha-ha you're getting old Cap you used to hit a lot harder" Spider-man teased. The young hero launched himself at Caps legs in sweeping kick but the veteran fighter quickly jumped away before whipping his shield at Spider-man.

Spider-man quickly evaded the shield before casting a web line onto it "ready for a new version of ultimate Frisbee Cap?" he spun on his heels gaining speed as he flung the shield back at Captain America. The flying disk had now gained 10x its original speed as it collided with caps chest knocking him to the far side of the pad. "not bad Spider-man I didn't expect you to throw my own shield at me but you might have to do better tha…" Cap was interrupted when White Tiger came crashing down at him.

"don't worry about the web head! I'm your real threat!" she growled slashing at Cap with ferocity that could rival an angry tiger. Her claws slashed and swept but to no avail, Cap was far better trained which he proved when he snatched her left outreached arm then struck a blow just below her collar bone dropping her to the ground "no I can't lose here" she moaned.

"heads up!"

Spider-man jumped in taking advantage of Tigers pride he kicked Cap just between the ribs with enough force to throw him from the ring, taking Tiger with him.

"crap! I threw Tiger from the ring! She's going to be so pissed!"

"sorry Tiger that was an accident" he pleaded

"web head! I am going to kill you!" Tiger roared "this was a team exercise and you completely just sand bagged me for the victory!"

"I said I was sorry!" Spider-man shouted back.

Tiger climbed to her feet staring down her teammate with a bestial growl "you're going to pay web head…"

"for dinner? I can live with that" Spider-man grinned.

That last comment caught Tiger off guard, Spider-man was never one to just out right make a date with anyone. Was he being funny or actually setting terms? Her anger subsided while she eyed up the web head. She had to admit ever since he came home he's been different. his trip through the multiverse this time had done something to his personality, his confidence had increased but not his ego (which she was thankful for)

"when you say diner, you mean a date?" Tiger asked

Spider-man grinned "I'd say yes but you don't date so call it a peace offering" he chuckled. He was being serious, just having fun about it to.

Tiger put her hands on her hips and continued to stare him down "web head, you have a da.."

A worm hole tore through air behind the wall crawler allowing an arm to reach out and pull him inside. Dr. Strange stood behind Spider-man, only Spider-man didn't know where they were. It was a different world the sky was gold with an emerald tinge "Spider-man I apologise for the rude intrusion but this is an emergency. The grand mother, goddess of all gods is coming to earth seeking a battle with you she believes you're her greatest rival what she doesn't know is that her vision was off by 7 years your skills aren't evolved enough yet!" Strange explained.

Spider-man blinked at the sorcerer supreme, like a deer caught in the head lights "uhhm Doc could you maybe walk me through that one more time? I caught no of it."


(earth)

White Tiger and Captain America were left caught by surprise in the training arena. Spider-man was just pulled from the fabric of reality before their very eyes. "w-what happened" Tiger gasped.

"I am not sure Tiger. But it looks like Spider-man has vanished" Captain America replied.

The sky tore open with a series of lightning strikes and strong down pour of rain. The weather had changed so drastically in a mere blink of an eye it was almost biblical. Lightning struck the communications tower just over their heads, showering them with sparks.

"this is nuts! Thors dramatic entrances don't even bring storms like this!" Tiger shouted.

"indeed he doesn't but I've always been one for making a grand entrance"

Both Tiger and Cap spun on their heels to face to young purple women, the shorter one was sleek and fast looking wearing cargo pants and a black shirt under a denim jacket. The other was slightly taller and more toned, she looked like a body building model dressed in yoga pants and a loose fitting t-shirt her fiery red hair just reached her shoulders.

"who exactly are you two supposed to be? Tiger demanded.

dun-dun Spider-man was teleported by the good Dr. Strange to another world just as the grand mother arrives is strange planning on hiding him until she leaves? cause she might just destroy the planet if she cant find him
