DISCLAIMER:I DO NOT own Ultimate Spider-Man, Spiderman Noir, and Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and any related/nonrelated characters, Marvel, Disney or D.C.

In short I don't own anything in this story. This is just for fun.

Chapter 14: Bangalla Banquet

Bangalla-1932-Dusk

A few hours have passed since the battle with the Symbiote squid, the league has helped to repair the village, and all the huts have been rebuilt. The entire Banda tribe are celebrating, drummers are playing, dancers are dancing and the league is enjoying a seafood banquet around a bonfire with Chief Guran and their new friend.

Oh hey guys! Just your favourite noir styled Spiderman enjoying some dinner. I gotta say, never been a huge fan of seafood before, but these guys know how to cook, and how to throw a party. FYI, don't touch the squid.

Chief Guran: Tonight! We celebrate a great victory, the demon has been slain, and evil has once again been kept at bay by our guardian The Ghost Who Walk.

And once again, credit is not due.

Chief Guran: But we must also honour our visitors as well, if it not for the bravely, many more would have been lost to this demon. Friends, thou we did not trust you at first, you still helped my people in need and to rebuild what was lost, for that we honour you with this feast and welcome you as brothers and sister to our tribe.

Many tribes' men start chanting and cheering; some of the women approach the league and hang necklace flowers over them.

Spiderman: huh, well this makes a nice change.

Phantom: I take it you're not use to this praise.

The Phantom appears behind Spiderman and sits down next to him.

Spiderman: That would be the understatement of this century.

Phantom: Please forgive Chief Guran, he's very fond of his own voice and never misses on opportunity to use it. I've lost count of the number of times he's honoured me.

Spiderman: So you get a party like this every time you save them...sounds like a good deal you've got down here.

Spiderman looks examines the activity going on around him, both Green Hornet and Rocketeer are enjoying their seafood, the Shadow is with the Chief who is trying to persuaded him to take a drink out of his cup, Shadow doesn't look too keen, and Swift Cloud is dancing with the tribe. However she breaks off from the group and approaches Spiderman.

Swift Cloud: Come and have a dance darlin.

Spiderman: Oh no, I'm not much of a dancer.

Swift Cloud: Just one, have some fun.

Spiderman: No I'm fine, maybe next time.

Swift Cloud: I'll hold you to that; you don't know what you're missing.

She heads back to the group and starts dancing again, as Spiderman keeps staring at her The Phantom looks from her to him.

Phantom: There's an old Jungle saying "When Women offers dance, you accept".

Spiderman: What?

Phantom: Nothing, just something to keep in mind for the future.

Just then, The Shadow comes to sit next to them.

Shadow: I don't know what's in this stuff, but I'll have Bourbon any day.

Spiderman: Do you even know how to have fun?

Shadow: Now's not the time, while we sit here and party, the Goblins plan advances further.

Phantom: So this Goblin, he is responsible for that monster?

Spiderman: Yes, and he plans to do much worse if we don't stop him... we could use your help.

Shadow: I've only heard legends about you, that the Phantom can knock the flea off the ear of a warthog at 100 paces without hurting the beast. That the Phantom has the strength of ten tigers.

Spiderman: That monster was nothing compared to what he can do, he has an army, advanced technology, and a ruthless desire to dominate or destroy everything, and we are the only people doing what we can to stop him, the only willing to fight him to protect every one, to protect the world...to protect our future.

The Phantom has an expression on his face as if he is in deep thought

Shadow: Nice speech.

Spiderman: Thanks, thou I think I over did it with the whole "Protecting the future" bit.

Phantom: I swore to devote my life to the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms, but I never thought evil would take a form like that monster and if this Goblin is responsible for its creation, and he threatens not just Bangalla but the world too. To face him would be a great challenge, so there's only one thing I can say.

Spiderman: What?

Phantom: The Phantom will never refuse a challenge... old Jungle saying

Spiderman: So you're going to help? That's awesome! Welcome to The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,

Phantom: The League of what?

Seriously Prosp88! Get a move on with a new name, this joke is getting really old.

Shadow: Thank you, now all we need is a way to get to Mexico

Phantom: Don't worry, I have my sea plane, I can get you there.

Spiderman: You have a plane?

Phantom: Of course. I was born here in Bangalla, but educated in America; it would have been a very long commute otherwise. So we'll head to Mexico in the morning, but for now enjoy the feast.

New York-2013-Day

Ava has been in the Mid-Manhattan Library for hours now, sitting at one of the desks in the huge library, buried under piles of old news paper articles that she has collected. Looking though old editions of the Daily Bugle, the New York Post and many others, she groans in frustration in having not found the one paper she was looking for.

Ava: This is hopeless, just hopeless!

?: Need a hand?

Ava looked up to see Mary Jane standing in front of her.

Ava: M J? What are you doing here?

M J: I should be asking you the same thing? So this is where you've been hiding, are you ok?

Ava: I'm always ok.

M J: Sure, that's why you attacked Sam and mouthed of to Principal Coulson.

Ava scoffed and looked back to her research.

M J: Look I know you got suspended for it, and I understand why you did it.

M J walks to the other side of the desk, behind Ava and puts a gentle hand on her shoulder.

M J: I miss Peter too.

Ava: You don't understand anything!

M J: Is that right? My best friend has been missing for over a week, no word or anything, you've been shunning everyone around you and hiding out in here. I know you cared for him, I know you blame yourself... Tiger.

Ava looks sharply up at her in shock.

Ava: How?

M J: I'm a wannabe reporter remember? I noticed that Peter disappeared at the same time Spiderman did, and I couldn't help notice that you, Sam and the others bear a strong resemblance to those other heroes he hung around with.

Ava: (Starting to cry) it's my fault, it's my entire fault, if I hadn't got so carless, the things I said to him before...

M J: I'm sure it's not...

Ava: It is, you see...after what happened, I...I had to tell his Aunt May. I told her everything. About Peter being Spiderman, the team, SHIELD and what happened to him. She didn't believe me at first but after I showed her his old webshooters...

Ava took a deep breath.

Ava: She blamed me for what happened that I should have done something, it was my fault she was now all alone... then she screamed at me to get out... I never saw her like that before.

M J: She only wanted to ease her own pain, finding someone to blame is the easiest to do that. She just lost her Husband not that long ago, now with Peter dead...

Ava: Peter's not dead.

M J: Look, don't do that to yourself.

Ava: No, you don't understand, that's why I'm here, Mrs Parker said I should have down something, so I'm doing it know, look...

Ava takes out her smart phone and shows M J the article that she found online.

M J: "The Spider" what does this mean?

Ava: After what happened, there was an anomaly left behind at the scene, it generated chronal displacement inertia, "time particles" that some scientist believe is essential for time travel.

M J: You think that Peter travelled in time and this "Spider of New York" is really him?

Ava: Yes, but I can't find the newspaper that the article mentions.

M J: No wonder, The Daily Sentinel is a Chicago newspaper; I doubt you'll find copies here

Ava: Well... I guess, I'm off to Chicago.

M J: We're off you mean?

M J smiles warmly at Ava, and for the first time in a week, she smiles back.

A/N: another chapter for you guys, next time Mexico, and expect more action, adventure and romance, as our last member of the league will soon join the ranks. Please leave comments and suggestions as usual; I really enjoy reading your comments.

Thanks.
