Ends of the Earth #1 (Alternate titles: Powerless)

Spider-Man, Silk, and the Spider-God Anansi stared at each other silently, all three poised for battle as MJ watched them apprehensively as she stood in front of Taran. Suddenly, MJ felt the air leave her lungs as she felt a powerful pulling sensation while the world moved rapidly around her. Releasing a startled gasp, MJ looked around frantically at her new surroundings only to find herself on the opposite side of the room held tightly in Silk's arms. Glancing behind the costumed woman she could see Spider-Man and Anansi charge each other.

*KA-BOOOOOOM!*

A shock wave destroyed the ground as Spider-Man's fist collided with Anansi's staff. The sheer strength of the Spider-God resulted in Spider-Man slamming back into the ground. Anansi went to follow up with an overhead swing only for Spider-Man to grab the staff and flip his body forward, slamming both of his heels into Anansi's face in the process.

"Alright, boo, I'm gonna need you to stay here safe and sound while Spidey and I deal with the spider-god of douches." Silk said as she placed MJ on her feet.

"Wait, what about Taran? She's too close to the fight." MJ said, her concern for the priestess evident in her voice.

"Seriously? Way too forgiving, boo." Silk said as she fired a web-line behind her without looking back. "Still, everybody gets one." Silk added before yanking Taran back towards them with a mighty pull. So mighty, in fact, Taran actually kept going and slammed into the wall behind MJ.

*BOOOM!*

"Ouch." Taran whimpered before passing out as her body slid down the wall.

"Seriously?" MJ asked with a deadpanned expression making Silk shrug as she turned back towards the fight.

"Guess I don't know my own strength." Silk said, glancing back at MJ with a wink, before jumping high in the air. Flipping forward, she fell down and slammed an extremely powerful axe-kick into Anansi whom blocked it with his forearm at the last minute. Silk grunted as she found herself batted away with ease, flipping back, she landed in a crouch next to Spider-Man. The two glanced at each other with a nod before blitzing Anansi.

"Foolish hatchlings." Anansi muttered before he stepped forward and vanishing in a blur of speed. Before long, after-images of the three filled the entirety of the room. In each one, the three were locked in mortal combat, but MJ and Julia could tell that Spider-Man and Silk were quickly losing.

"Futile." Julia muttered, her voice trembling as a bead of sweat slid down the side of her face.

"What? Come on, there's a chance they can win this right?" MJ asked hopefully making Julia shake her head.

"I…I can no longer see their fates, so to answer such a question honestly is impossible." Julia said before grimacing. "But you can't see what I can? This fight? It's taking place in two planes, and they're losing in both."

-Astral Plane-

Ero cursed as she and her counterpart found themselves fighting an irritated Spider-God.

"To challenge me? Have you forgotten your place?" Anansi question as he blitzed forward and choke slammed the red-eyed Ero into the ground of the multi-colored dimension.

"No…" Ero gasped out before a feral grin split her face. "I just don't give a fuck about it anymore." Ero said as her white-eyed counter-part descended behind Anansi, her fingers transformed into deadly claws. The red-eyed Ero released a choking sound as Anansi tightened his grip before standing up, spinning around, and slamming her body into her counter-parts' sending them crashing through the realm.

"Amusing. If you two fused, perhaps you could have a chance at injuring me. However, separate? You simply stand no chance." Anansi said calmly as the totems struggled to stand. "That fact that you two bonded to such weak humans only makes it worse. Perhaps they truly were a mistake."

"Shut up!" Ero boomed with a glare as her counterpart hissed menacingly. "Say what you want about me, but don't you dare underestimate them!"

"Why? What can they possibly do?" Anansi asked with a scoff. "They're just human."

"Don't underestimate them." Ero warned as she charged Anansi. "True, they may seem like wastes of space now…but what can you expect? They're young. However, there is no doubt in my mind that one day…one day they too will be able to stand alongside the gods!" Ero declared as she released a visions right hook at Anansi whom managed to dodge at the last possible moment before batting her away with his staff producing a sickening crunch in the process.

"You're far too optimistic." Anansi muttered as he stalked over towards her, exerting his pressure and forcing her counter-part to her knees by his sheer presence alone.

"M-maybe…but if memory serves me right, so were you." Ero said weakly as she glanced up at him while holding her side. "Once…once upon a time." Ero gasped out making Anansi tense before lunging at her with a glare.

"You forget your place!"

-With Spider-Man and Silk-

"It's unfortunate…yet…fitting that this is where you fall." Anansi muttered as he held the battered forms of Spider-Man and silk tightly by their necks. Though they had fought valiantly, they were ultimately simply outclassed in virtually every category. Speed, reflexes, spider-sense, etc. Anansi had all of their powers tenfold. "Though, it's to be expected." Anansi continued as he simply threw the across the room, sending them rag dolling across the floor. "You simply could not be prepared to face someone of my power."

"N-not prepared?" Spider-Man muttered as he climbed up to his knees and glared at Anansi, his right lens completely shattered revealing a blazing red orb. "I'm always prepared. Web-Wares models Arachnida Alpha and Arachnida Omega…" Spider-Man began as the screens of his and Silk's Web-Wares turned orange making her look down at it in surprise. "Commence Master lock override."

["Voice recognition accepted. Commencing override."] Two voices said from their web wares in perfect synch before a loading bar appeared.

"Spider-Man?" Silk asked confusion as they climbed to their feet.

"When I designed our Spider-Armors, it was using blue-prints from a time yet to pass." Spider-Man began with his eyes trained on Anansi whom was looking at him with a small frown. "Revolutionary technology I was unable to fully comprehend with the gap in my memories. Now, however, with them restored I understand just what exactly I was building." Spider-Man muttered as he began walking towards Anansi. "Silk, allow me to show you the power that dominated the world." Spider-Man said making her look at him in surprise. "Just a little bit longer, hold on for a little longer."

"Hmph, you think you can stop a god with some sort of manmade weapon?" Anansi asked sounding a bit amused.

"Do you want to know why the memory of a weapon such as this was missing? That a tool of my own design was repressed?" Spider-Man asked before he blitzed forward making Anansi narrow his eyes as the two found themselves locked in combat once more. "It's because over the years, I had become a very paranoid man." Spider-Man said as he ducked under a powerful swing of Anansi's staff while Silk descended upon him, making Anansi turn around in order to deliver a powerful right which she barely managed to dodge. "You say I'm not prepared to face a god, but the truth is I made this weapon as a contingency to fight something much stronger." Spider-Man declared as he jumped back.

At that moment…

The images of Binary, a berserk Logan, and Deadpool flashed through his mind.

-Meanwhile: Parker Industries: Anna's Office-

Anna was currently humming to herself as she sipped on a cup of a coffee while sitting in her office in her lab coat. Today was actually a pretty tame day which was rare with the insane projects they undertook on a daily basis. Currently, Anna was putting the finishing touches on Peter's plans for a super villain containment facility when an alert suddenly popped on her monitor. Clicking on it, Anna found herself spraying her coffee out of her mouth as she gaped at it.

Currently the monitor was showing the increasing prices of their stock and the number of Web-Wares that had currently been sold world-wide, 115,567,437–a number that was continuously increasing. Though she was glad to see this, what caught her attention were that all the web-wares were not just linking to the satellites but to each other, essentially creating a web of data that was acting like a single massive server.

"What the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuck!" Anna shouted as she began typing. Her eyes narrowed when she saw that the phenomena were originating from Peter and Cindy's web-wares.

She had to make a call.

-With Spider-Man & Silk-

70%

["Full Disclosure mother fucker, do you know it!?"] Anna snapped as soon as Spider-Man answered her call after ducking under the stab of a massive Spider-leg that had sprung from an irritated Anansi's back as his eyes burned with golden flames.

"Would you believe me if I told you that I just figured out I can do that?" Spider-Man asked already knowing what had triggered the call.

["Bullshit! Do you know how many law-suits we're going to get if news of this gets out!?"] Anna snapped angrily, and for a good reason too-she was enjoying being rich. ["This is a total invasion of privacy that's not covered in our user agreement!"]

"Relax, Anna." Spider-Man said reassuringly as he jumped up and caught Silk whom had gotten launched through the air courtesy of a vicious round-house kick from Anansi. Making sure she was okay, Spider-Man set her on her feet before they both ran away from an incoming barrage of massive Spider-limbs. "All I did was…borrow their Wi-Fi signals, didn't even touch their data!"

["Still not covered in the contract and still not legal".] Anna said and Spider-man could feel her face-palm. ["Murdock and Walters are good lawyers, but they're not fucking Phoenix Wright!"]

"Well we were going to send out an update today to fix face-time, right?" Spider-Man questioned as he and Silk back-flipped on top of one of the legs that had gotten stuck and used it as a platform to run directly towards Anansi. "Shoe-horn something about giving us permission to do this on page seventeen of the user agreement. Like the third page of google, no one ever reads page seventeen! Hell no one ever reads the user agreements." Spider-Man said as he and Silk both with to drop kick Anansi, only for him to grab their ankles and throw them into a nearby wall.

*BOOOOOOOOM!*

["Peter!? What are you doing!? What was that!?"]

"My back." Spider-Man said with a groan. "Look, I'm kind of fighting a Spider-God right now with Silk so this matter has all of my attention. Just do what I said and we'll be fine, trust me. By the way? Ace Attorney? Nice, thanks for reminding me why I hired you." Spider-Man said as he went to hang up.

"Hey tell her I said hi!" Silk called out as she pried herself out of the wall. "And ask her if we're still on for Friday."

"Cindy said–"

["I know. I fucking heard her."] Anna muttered though Spider-Man could tell her frustration was fading. ["Breaking so many laws right now. Tell her Friday's still good unless an Armageddon occurs."] Anna said before hanging up.

"Friday's still good!" Spider-Man called out as he hopped from the wall and landed next to her. "Wait, what's Friday?"

"Movie night, boo, got a lot of things I need to catch up on. Nighthawk vs. Hyperion, Dawn of Vengeance is the first one."

"Mm, wouldn't start with that." Spider-Man said knowingly before snorting and shaking his head. "Fucking Martha." Spider-Man muttered under his breath.

(LIAG Fun Fact: Nighthawk vs. Hyperion is an actual movie in the MU based off of Batman vs. Superman. It was mentioned in the Spider-Man/Deadpool series.)

"For what it's worth, I do not believe it's that bad." Anansi piped up making both Spiders look at him in shock.

"Gods get bored too." Anansi defended.

"My God–"

"Yes?"

"–I've never had such a strong urge to both shake someone's hand and kick their ass." Spider-Man muttered incredulously as he ignored Anansi before he and Silk charged the god.

"Mary Jane," Julia finally said after watching that whole spectacle. "I do believe those two are idiots." Julia said breathlessly, not believing that they could actually banter and take business meetings while fighting their god.

"Yes…but they're my idiots." MJ said fondly before sighing before pulling out her phone.

"What are you doing?'

"Texting my agent, I might need to show a little more skin in my next photoshoot." MJ mused. "From what I could hear from Peter's call, I might need to break the internet for a bit and distract people from this corporate scandal." MJ said bluntly making even Madame Web herself look at her in surprise.

Mary Jane Watson-Parker, Wife of the year, one ride or die woman.

Julia just shook her head as she watched Spider-Man and Silk continue to fight for their lives. She could no longer see what Peter was planning, but deep down she truly hoped that he could pull off a miracle.

-Meanwhile: New York: Sixth Avenue-

"So, Ms. Sablinova what brings you to my fair city?" Jameson asked with a grin as he stood next to Silver while waving at the citizens as they paraded through the city.

"I have come to this country due to an upcoming U.N. meeting. Why I chose your city, however, is due to a more personal reason. I wish to speak with the CEO of Parker Industries about expanding to my country." Silver said with a small smile as she too waved at the crowd, though she was actively looking for any potential threats that could be hiding within the masses along with her mercenaries. A lot of people wanted her head as of late.

"You want to speak to Parker? Ha! Good man! Taught him everything he knows, I was practically a second father to him!" Jameson gloated with a hearty laugh.

"Is that so?" Silver asked as she glanced at him. "[Funny seeing how the Intel my men have unearthed would suggest Parker would rather see you dead if anything. Not to mention you don't hold a candle to his actual father.]" Silver thought as she clearly saw through his bullshit.

The fact that he blatantly bashed and villainized someone she deeply respected only made staying in his presence even more taxing on her patience.

It was interesting, really, when she had gotten the contract for P.I. to expand into her country she had decided to personally do the background check of the corporation as was procedure for any business that wanted in to Symkaria. It was only on a whim, really, to satisfy her boredom by finding out about the man who was so close to Spider-Man.

What she found after a surprisingly difficult amount of digging, however, was shocking.

Not so much about the man but rather his family. The amount of missions completed by Parker's family was, quite frankly, humbling. She'd be the first to admit that there was red in her ledger but theirs was bathed in red. The only one's she surpassed in terms of confirmed kills would be the Parker siblings and that seemed to only be because one was still early in their career and the other chose a path of science instead of espionage. Their parents had been quite the rising stars in their time, to the point that Hydra considered them to be high priority targets. Then the grandfather…

…Silver had to repress a shudder.

To sum up, Silver found herself truly wanting to meet the CEO of Parker industries for various reasons. To see the man behind the spider whom provided the hero with all of his gear, to see just what the corporation could offer to Symkaria, and to see just how normal a person could be with parents like his. His younger sister was obviously a lost cause but she wanted to know what caused him to take a separate path. There was also another matter pertaining to P.I. that she had uncovered that she felt she needed to warn him about–

"[What?]" Silver's musings were interrupted when she caught some suspicious movement from the corner of her eye. "Excuse me but you are positive that this route is secure?"

"Yup! And by the best-trained police and secret service in the world!" Jameson gloated and even she couldn't help but scoff.

"Actually, I think you'll find that that honor belongs to my countrymen." Silver said as she stealthily got her countrymen's attention. ["High alert. Keep your eyes peeled. I'll be right behind you."] Silver signed to them.

"Hogwash! Nothing escapes form my men's…watch?" Jameson trailed off as dozens of men garbed in white suddenly rushed from the crowd.

"[Flag-Smasher!]" Silver thought angrily as she recognized the man leading the assault. "Anarchists! You and your terror cell must answer for many crimes against Symkaria!" Silver shouted as the civilians immediately succumbed to their panic, producing mass hysteria amongst the masses.

"Under what authority!? I recognize no authority! Just like no one will be able to recognize Symkarian from American when this block is reduced to ash!" Flag-Smasher declared making Silver curse as she prepared for combat. Gunfire would put the civilians at risk, but if the terrorist truly had such a powerful bomb then she'd have to take that risk. However, before the bullets could begin flying a blast of energy slammed shot down between the two forces.

*BOOOOM!*

"Look! Up there!"

"We're saved!"

BGM: All Might Theme- Boku No Hero OST

Silver heard the hysteria turn to cheers, a look of confusion on her face as she heard Jameson release a loud laugh. Looking, up her eyes widened when she saw a figure in the sky. The light from the sun resulted in the figure being covered in shadows as it descended.

"That's enough, I'm sure we can fix this with some diplomacy." Captain Marvel said with a smile as she landed in front of the Symkarian soldiers and faced the terrorist cell. "And by diplomacy, I mean you surrender before I break you." Captain Marvel said with a dangerous gleam in her eye, her smile never dropping as the people cheered her name.

"Y-you what are you doing here!?" Flag-Smasher asked with a bit of fear as she crossed her arms.

"You attacked the hero capital of the world, what did you expect to happen? I'm surprised the other Avengers didn't beat me here." Captain Marvel said matter-of-factly. "Probably decided to leave it to Spider-Man." Captain Marvel thought with a mental sigh as she repressed the urge to rub her temples in frustration.

"I-It doesn't matter! We are not afraid of you! We are willing to lay down our lives for the cause!" Flag-Smasher declared, only to find himself standing alone as his henchmen decided to retreat. Before they could get too far, however, they were intercepted by a red, blue, and gold blur that swept them all up from the ground. Paling, Flag-Smasher turned back around to find his followers lying unconscious in a pile of limbs while Captain Marvel held their guns under her right arm. Tightening her muscles a bit, the weapons all shattered under her might before she let the fall into a useless pile of twisted metal.

"Yeah! That's it Carol! Show them why they shouldn't mess with America, especially my city!" Jameson shouted loudly.

"Mayor." Captain Marvel began with a polite smile that Silver could tell was forced as she glanced back at him. "Please don't distract me."

"Er-uh-of course! Please carry on Captain!" Jameson continued as Captain Marvel stalked menacingly towards Flag-Smasher.

"I refuse to fall here!" Flag-Smasher shouted as he released a storm of bullets that slammed into Captain Marvel harmlessly as if they had been shot at a solid steel wall. Raising her right hand, Captain Marvel released a blast of energy that destroyed the gun. Running out of options, Flag-Smasher charged at Captain Marvel with his robot arm that took the form of a mace. "Try this, my arm has the strength of a hundred men!" Flag-Smasher shouted as he slammed the weapon into Captain Marvel's face.

*CRASH!*

"Gah!" Flag-Smasher shouted in agony as his arm a shattered against her face. He couldn't think much of the pain for too long as she quickly grabbed him around his throat and choke slammed him into the ground with enough force to render him unconscious.

"Officers, take them away." Captain Marvel ordered the cops whom quickly nodded, grateful that they didn't have to get involved in a battle against terrorists.

"Wait! They must answer for their crimes against my country!" Silver called out as Captain Marvel approached her.

"And they will, but I doubt you brought a holding cell with you and we don't allow public executions in thi s country. They will be transferred over to your custody where you can deal whatever punishment you deem necessary at a later date." Captain Marvel said with a smile making Silver pause as she thought over her words before eventually nodding.

"Very well." Silver said before one of her guards called out to her.

"[Your highness! We found the bomb!]" The man shouted making her nod before she quickly moved to where he was with Captain Marvel, whom had an idea of why he was so frantic, decided to follow her. Silver cursed as she looked over the bomb and found herself face with a group of wires.

"[Of course]" Silver muttered as she tried to figure out which wire counted.

"Uh, your highness? Why don't you let me take care of that?" Captain Marvel asked making Silver look back at her curiously.

"You can disable bombs?"

"Sort of." Captain Marvel answered vaguely as she approached the bomb. "A little Spider asked me to make sure you didn't mess up your hair while you were in New York, said you hate it." Captain Marvel said with a chuckle. "Something tells me, a bomb to the face may mess it up." Captain Marvel said making Silver shake her head at Spider-Man's antics.

"Where is he anyway?" Silver asked with a frown as she watched Captain Marvel pick up the bomb.

"He went off to check on something with his powers, should be back later today or tomorrow." Captain Marvel said as she floated a bit off of the ground. "Hope you enjoy your stay in New York." Captain Marvel said before blasting off into the sky with a resounding boom as she broke the sound barrier.

-Space-

Once she made it into space, Captain Marvel tossed the bomb deep into the void and watched it explode into a bright silent inferno. Raising a hand towards the explosion, Captain Marvel watched as the released energy went to her outstretched hand and became absorbed into her body. Nodding to herself, Captain Marvel Flew back to New York.

BGM: END

-New York: 10 Minutes Later-

"Because of your actions, I will be able to return to my home continue to lead my people to prosperity. I and Symkaria thank you." Silver said as she extended a hand to the Captain whom accepted it and shook it. Stepping forward, Silver pressed a quick kiss to her cheek, surprising the Captain as the cameras began flashing wildly. "Meet me at my hotel at six. I have a matter of utmost important that must be discussed." Silver whispered into her ear, putting Captain Marvel alert as she felt the silver haired woman slip her a piece of paper. Nodding a bit in acknowledgement, Captain Marvel stepped back with a smile.

"Don't worry about it, it's what we do." Captain Marvel said with a smile before taking to the skies as the masses called out after her.

"Ha! Good old Danvers, saving the day as usual! You know, I was like a second father to her! Thanks to her, we have had fewer problems with Spider-Man, no doubt due to her passing on the teachings I gave her…" Jameson gloated as Silver tuned out his bullshit. She needed to get this parade over with fast.

The earth itself was at stake.

-Spider-Temple: Astral Plane-

Both forms of Ero weakly tried to crawl away from Anansi only to release twin screams of agony when two massive spider legs pierced them though their backs and exited their chests before stabbing deeply into the ground before them.

"You've grown arrogant, Ero, please allow me to beat you back into submission." Anansi said coldly as he twisted his Spider-legs a bit making tears fall from Ero's eyes as her body writhed in agony.

-With Spider-Man and Silk-

Spider-Man and Silk slammed viciously into the ground, both missing half of their respective Spider-Armors causing sparks to dance from the torn mesh and across their skin, shocking them ever so slightly.

"I've grown tired of waiting." Anansi drawled as his face distorted slightly as two massive fangs sprung out from his mouth as the burning flames in his eyes increased their intensity. "Perhaps it was a bluff?" Anansi mused as Spider-Man forced himself up to his hands and knees as he weakly glanced over at his Web-Ware while Silk whimpered as she shook and curled up on herself tears of pain falling from her eyes. Unlike Spider-Man, she was still incredibly new to super-hero world. Never before had she felt the pain of being beaten within an inch of her life until now.

100%

"MJ…" Spider-Man began as he released a shuddering breath as his wife looked at them in horror. Tears filled her eyes as she covered her mouth with her hands. "I'm so sorry for what's about to happen." Spider-Man continued as the screen on his and Silk's Web-Wares turned red. "But I'm going to have to scare you for a bit." Spider-Man continued, confusing MJ as he raised his Web Ware high while Anansi cocked back his massive Spider-limbs, intent on finishing the two off. "Web-Ware Alpha, Web-Ware Omega…"

"Should have just played your part, now die." Anansi said coolly as the sharps legs shot towards them.

"INITITATE: BLACK SUIT PROTOCOL!" Spider-Man boomed before a black mass ripped free from his and Silk's Web Wares.

-Astral Plane-

"What!?" Anansi, whom had lifted up the dying forms of the totems, shouted in surprise as the bodies suddenly tensed as a black energy engulfed them. He watched, stunned, as Ero glance black at him with blazing red eyes as she grabbed onto the limb piercing her and began to break it with in her grasp.

-With Spider-Man and Silk-

"AHHHH!" Anansi shouted as two black tendrils sliced through the two spider legs that were racing towards the heroes. MJ paled as her breaths got a bit shorter as she stumbled back, falling on to her rear. Julia looked at her fellow red-head in concern as she saw the woman's pupils dilate while tears slid down her cheeks.

"MJ!?" Julia asked in surprise before glancing back to the fight. Despite the things she had experience and seen in her life, even she couldn't prevent the slight feeling of fear she had as she saw what appeared to be two massive demonic heads that appeared to be made of black ink floating above the Spider-heroes. Each head bore two eyes that were releasing two bright red led lights and in their mouth appeared to be far too many teeth.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" The two heads released a loud screech as they turned to face the downed Spider-Man and Silk, the latter of which looked up at the monster with an expression not unlike MJ's while her eyes turned white. On the other hand, Spider-Man faced his with grim determination –his own eyes burning red– as the spider-emblem on his chest turned red. Before anyone could say a thing the two heads opened their mouths and shot forward, consuming their respective hero instantly.

"Not again, not again, not again." MJ kept muttering herself as she shook her head.

(MT Fun Fact: After an extremely close encounter with Venom, MJ has developed a fear of the former villain that supersedes any fear she has for any other villain in Spider-Man's rogue gallery.)

Julia was forced to move the hysterical woman and the unconscious Taran to safety as lethal black tendrils began to whip around the room as two black humanoid figures began to rise. It was at that moment that Taran began to wake up, and when she did so she looked at the sight before them in surprise, no doubt trying to figure out what the hell was going on. The two black figures trembled as their appearance began to become more defined. One bore the crimson Spider-emblem while the other bore Silk's emblem. Soon, however, both emblems were covered by the inky black substance before two massive white spider emblems covered them. After a few more moments, the tendrils stopped thrashing as the two Spider heroes' stood before Anansi.

"What is this?" Anansi muttered in confusion as he gazed at the heroes who had their masks pulled back. Spider-Man stood confidently as he wore what appeared to be his usual black suit. Only this one was a bit shinier and had blue electric currents coursing over its surface, in addition the red screen of his web ware could be seen on his arm while what looked like small black veins covered the sides of his face.

Silk stood next him trembling slightly as she held herself, her face was flushed as her breaths became labored. Her suit appeared visually identical to Spider-Mans though her emblem was a bit smaller. She noticed that Spider-Man's muscles and her curves were a lot more pronounced and her body was far more sensitive to the point that she felt like a giant nerve. She shuddered as she could feel the air dancing across her body. Safe to say, if their last costumes left little to the imagination these made those look incredibly tame. She tensed with wide eyes and had to hold back a gasp as one of the currents went a bit…lower…than anticipated.

"What...what are these?" Silk asked as she turned to Spider-Man with confused white eyes.

"Our key to victory." Spider-Man declared with a smirk as he turned his blazing red eyes to Anansi. "May I present to you the Variable Engagement Neuro-sensitive Organic Mesh, V.E.N.O.M."

"Impressive, to think you would use one of your greatest adversaries as an inspiration for more power." Anansi muttered before the missing ends of his spider legs suddenly protruded from the wounded limbs, healing them instantly. "Still it is futile, there is simply more to this battle than you know." Anansi stated simply making Spider-Man smirk.

"Oh…I know I just don't care. See the thing about fighting someone as strong as you is that you don't know what's coming next. " Spider-Man said as he slid into a fighting stance. "You just have to have a little faith." Spider-Man said before charging forward as a black mask with white lenses appeared over his face. Anansi said nothing as six more spider-legs ripped from his back before all eight shot at Spider-Man so fast that they each created mini sonic booms.

"Too slow." Spider-Man muttered surprising Anansi as he effortlessly danced around the eight limbs leaving nothing but after-images in his wake as he approached the god with his fist cocked back. Frowning, Anansi cocked his own fist back before slamming it into Spider-Man's

*KABOOOOOOOOOM!*

The sheer force of the two blows connecting created a shockwave that exploded throughout the entirety of the room, making the very temple itself tremble. Julia cursed as she was forced to hold on to MJ and Taran so that they wouldn't be blown away while Silk stood firmly against the blast, cementing her feet to the ground. Anansi frowned in confusion as he saw a small blue electric current form from the point where their fists connected before spreading across Spider-Man's suit a dissipating. Leaping up, Spider-Man slammed his knee into Anansi's face and sent the god flying back through a large stone pillar.

"H-how…?" Anansi asked sounding confused as he landed on his feet, his now shattered mask falling from his face as he looked at Spider-Man with a glare. This was impossible. There was no way he shouldn't have been able to foresee that attack. He may have been unable to see Spider-Man's fate anymore but he still should have foreseen himself being hit at the very least. When Spider-Man began his attack it was almost like something had interfered with the Web. "Wait…"Anansi muttered as the flames in his eyes brighter than before allowing him to gaze upon the Web of life and destiny itself.

What he saw…

…scared him.

Around them, the golden web covered everything as it always did but this time he could see a new bluish green web entangled with the web of life that seemed to originate from Spider-Man and Silk. So entangled were the webs, that the web of life was actually unable to reach Anansi.

"Impossible…what did you do?" Anansi muttered in morbid fascination.

"The Spider-Sense has always been my greatest power and it was only a matter of time before my enemies caught on and found a way to get around it. You're aware of this aren't you? It's called a Spider-Jammer. I had Silk and I's Web-Wares fitted with one." Spider-Man said before chuckling as Anansi took a step back and shook his head.

"But to block ME? That much power–"

"Couldn't fit in one web ware right?" Spider-Man finished Anansi's sentence sounding incredibly amused while Silk looked at him shock while a black ninja mask cover the lower half of her face. "You're right, but by connecting ALL of the web-wares around the world…well let's just say I managed to bust the strength of my jammers' signal a bit."

"You're lying." Anansi said as he shook his head, refusing to believe what he was hearing. "If that was the case your own 'spider-sense' would be gone-wait-your armors! They protect you don't they?" Anansi realized making Spider-Man laugh as he clapped his hands."

"Silk, give the man a cookie!" Spider-Man said before rubbing his chin in thought. "Or maybe not? Partial credit for partial answers." Spider-Man said, the teacher in him coming out.

(MT Fun Fact: Peter used to be a teacher earlier in his career)

"Once upon a time one of my enemies tried to recreate the Spider-Jammer and accidently made it so that instead of nullifying my spider-sense, it got stronger to unbearable levels. From Spider-Jammer to Spider-Booster. I decided to add that as well and added a function to regulate its power level." Spider-Man actually gloated at this point. "While your Spider-Sense is gone, ours is actually getting stronger. Come on show me what you're made of."

(MT Fun Fact: Make no mistake, as good of a hero as he is, Spider-Man is not above gloating and reaching Ock levels of arrogance when his invention works the way it's supposed to. First time he got his web-shooters working, his gloating was downright maniacal.)

"So arrogant…don't think I need my connection to beat two hatchlings like you!" Anansi boomed, his face taking on a bit more monstrous as his muscles seemed to get a bit bigger before he charge at them. Spider-Man and Silk took that moment to charge him. Once the three began to fight once more, Silk was surprised to see how much lighter her body felt.

Spider-Sense!

Silk's white eyes widened when unlike the regular tingling she normally felt, time seemed to freeze and take on a light blue tone before an ethereal image of Anansi seemed to step out form his body. She watched in a confused silence as she watched the ethereal copy perform his next few attacks harmlessly before it ended and time resumed.

"Left." Silk muttered as she stepped to the side and avoided a vicious slash from one of his claws. She watched in shock as he performed every attack his copy did flawlessly allowing her to dodge him with ease. As he continued to attack them and miss, Silk narrowed her eyes when she saw the right side of his jaw seemingly glow red. Ducking under a kick, Silk effortlessly stepped inside his guard and slammed a vicious right into his jaw that sent him flying back and rag-doll across the room. "Holy shit!" Silk shouted not expecting to hit him that hard.

(MT Fun Fact: Spider-Man's Spider-Sense is honestly nowhere even close to the full potential of that power. Even Silk's, though stronger, is still nowhere near its full potential. Much stronger Spider-senses have been shown to give complete clairvoyance allowing individuals such as Kaine, The Queen, and an alternate-Peter Parker (Assassin Spider-Man) to blatantly see into the future.)

"So we can see the future and identify weak-points now…I wonder what else will happen as our Spider-Senses get stronger. Come on!" Spider-Man called out before he and Silk shot towards Anansi while he was still down. However, before they could get too close, the god's body pulsed.

-Spider-Temple: Outside-

BGM: Call Your Name- Attack On Titan OST

*FABOOOOOOOOOOM!*

The temple exploded as a massive green Spider with countless legs exploded from the temple, reducing it to rubble as Julia appeared outside of it in a crimson flash with MJ and Taran. Taran watched the sight with a mortified expression, a bead of sweat sliding down the side of her face.

"To think…" Taran began as her knees felt weak making her fall down to them. "That two mortals could bring Anansi to this state." Taran muttered as dozens of priestesses fled the collapsing structure. "But can a lone totem face down the god of all spiders?" Taran asked as Spider-Man Silk could be seen descending upon Anansi only for one of the legs to slam into to them, sending them flying back towards the spectators.

*BOOOOM!*

The ground shook from their impact as dust and debris flew up while the skies darkened from the sheer release of Anansi's power.

-Astral Plane-

"To think…you actually have hope that the mortals will defeat me." Anansi muttered as he glared at Ero. "That's almost as pathetic as this shameless display." Anansi said as he gestured to the two Eros making the red-eyed Ero flinch. "Splitting yourself into two so you can have the illusion of love. So that you don't feel lonely anymore." Anansi said with mock sadness. "This other you is nothing but a glorified imaginary friend." Anansi said making Ero clench her fists as she looked down, the shadow from her bangs covering her eyes. "But you know the truth, in the end the only one who can love you is yourself. You will always be a lonely little spider."

"Shut up!" Ero shouted as she glared up at him with tears in her eyes.

"Why? Too close to home?" Anansi asked before laughing, wiping tears of mirth from his eyes. "This is as sad as watching someone hug themselves so that they feel like someone is there and you know it. The only reason you are even fighting me is because that red-haired maiden fed this delusion that this…sham could ever love you back. The kicker? She didn't even believe it either, she just needed your power to get back the man she loved." Anansi said before charging Ero with his clawed hand cocked back. "You were used and now you'll die for it."

*BOOOOM!*

Ero's tear filled eyes widened in shock as Anansi was suddenly sent blasting away from her courtesy of a vicious right hook from her counterpart. Anansi flipped in the air and landed on his feet before looking at the two Eros in surprise as he rubbed his jaw. The blow didn't surprise him as much as the look of shock on Ero's face. By the looks of it, she hadn't controlled that action as she did with the many other actions made by the white-eyes Ero.

"S-she said…t-too…s-shut up!" The white-eyed Ero boomed as she released her own pressure. "I won't let you say anymore hurtful things to her!" She continued as she jumped back next to the red-eyed Ero and held her close. "You don't get to touch my mate!" The white-eyed Ero declared as her fangs elongated.

"I see…just like a flatworm that's been cut in two." Anansi began before snarling. "Given enough time, both halves can become their own organism. Touching. But this fairy tale love of yours will end in tragedy." Anansi muttered before he transformed into his massive green-spider-form. "BEFORE YOU DIE. WHAT SHOULD I CALL YOU?"

"Philia." Philia answered as she intertwined her fingers with Ero. "Because my love for Ero transcends reason and it's because of that that I will take you down." Philia declared. "Earlier you said we need to merge to have a chance a fighting you…problem with that is that we don't need to be a single being to fight as one! Ero let's end this." Philia said making Ero nod before they both exploded into two pillars of light blue energy.

"WHERE…WHERE IS ALL THIS TANTRIC ENRGY COMING FROM!?" Anansi questioned angrily as the two totems turned to each other and sunk their fangs into each other's neck.

-Spider-Temple a few minutes earlier-

BGM: END

"How are we not hurt from that? Why did it feel so good?" Silk questioned as she and Spider-Man from the crater they had created before jumping up and web-zipping towards the Spider-god as black tendrils ripped from their bodies, grabbing anything within in reach and breaking it down.

"These things are bound to our nervous systems. Through my research I've learned much about this "tantric energy" and while all of the mystic explanations are okay, I am a man of science." Spider-Man said as he and Silk landed on top of the god. "Tantric energy comes from pleasure. Pleasure is derived from the Dopamine, more accurately the dopamine pathway known as the mesolimbic pathway which starts–"

"English mother fucker, do you speak it!?" Silk snapped. "I don't even have my GED, not mention science was my worst subject."

"Sorry, tantric energy comes from pleasure. I made these suits turn the sensation of pain into pleasure. The more we're hurt, the stronger we get. Still powering this suit requires stupid of mounts of energy, which is why the suit is breaking down everything it can find to keep itself running." Spider-Man explained as they hands shifted into black claws allowing them to cut through the legs, making Anansi roar in pain.

BGM: Feels Good- Volumes

"So getting hit is good? That sounds…wrong…like do I need a safe word or some whips and candle wax-"

"Silk?"

"Yes?"

"Shut up."

"It was a joke!" Silk said as both she and Spider-Man back-flipped as one and landed on top of another leg.

"Silk you might not notice because we currently are fighting an enemy that is sending our spider-senses into over drive but I'm sure we've released more than a little amount of pheromones into the air and we're more in tune with our totems than ever before. We're also practically wearing nothing. Trust me talking about one of your favorite past-times right now, is not a good idea." Spider-Man said making her blush a bit as she figured where he was going with this.

Jumping each other in front of a god trying to kill them would be a bad idea.

"Wait? My favorite past time?" Silk repeated as she swung after Spider-Man. She paled as she remembered that Spider-Man and her future self were a lot…closer…than they were currently.

And that ladies and gentlemen, is how Silk found out she was an M.

"MJ must never know." Silk thought resolutely before one of the legs slammed Spider-Man into her and sent them both into the ground making Spider-Man grit his teeth as Silk released a loud gasp as both of them felt the tantric energy engulfed them from the blow…though Silk seemed to have gained a lot more energy than Spider-Man from that blow.

There was a moment of awkward silence before the two got back to their feet.

"Did you just–"

"Shut up and fight." A mortifiedSilk interrupted quickly before they both froze as an image of Ero and Philia sinking their fangs into each other flashed through their minds. Time seemed to slow to a crawl, to the point where they could clearly see each individual rain drop as they began to feel…everything. Their Spider-Senses had more than doubled in intensity out of nowhere and for some reason it felt as though they were embracing each other despite being a couple feet apart. They could hear their rapid heartbeats as a feeling of bliss coursed through their minds. "What's happening!?"

"Our Spider-Senses…they've…merged." Spider-Man muttered before they watched in surprise as they found themselves surrounded by a golden we while everything around them turned black. They watched in shock as they saw countless images being played out, each one showing a different outcome for the current battle. "There…" Spider-Man whispered as he saw an image of him and Silk standing victoriously over Anansi. "This is the answer to beating him."

-Astral Plane-

"YOU WON'T WIN!" Anansi boomed as Ero and Philia swung in between this many legs and slashed at him, Ero with her stingers and Philia with her claws.

"You say that like you believe it." Ero muttered before stumbling as she landed on his back. She winced a bit as she found her power draining, and looking towards Philia she could see the other totem was in the same predicament.

"LOOKS LIKE THAT POWER COMES AT A COST! IF YOU WIN IT'LL BE A PYHRRIC VICTORY!" Anansi said as Ero back flipped of him while Philia could be seen swinging behind her.

"Yeah but a win is a win!" Ero said before the two totems web-zipped towards him.

*CRUNCH!*

"GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Anansi screamed in agony as Ero rammed her stinger into his head, her entire arm entering his head due to the added momentum while Philia did the same with her claws. The god thrashed and screeched as its face began to crack while a bright golden light was released from its wound.

-Spider-Temple-

Spider-Man and Silk swung around the large deity as they wrapped their tendrils around him and attempted to restrain him.

"GET…OFF OF ME–WAIT WHAT!?" Anansi questioned in alarm as he found his power being consumed by the inky black substance. "NO…" Anansi muttered as he found himself covered in what looked like a black web that was draining all of his power rapidly. His form began to shrink as the parasitic substance sapped away his power. "NOT LIKE THIS, I WON'T BE BEATEN LIKE THIS!" Anansi shouted as Spider-Man and Silk landed behind him and grabbed ahold of their respective tendrils and began pulling back with all their might.

"Come on!" Spider-Man ground out as they kept cementing their feet into the ground with every step back they took.

"Come on bastard, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall…" Silk repeated over and over as Anansi lost his footing and found himself being pulled backwards. Spider-Man gritted his teeth as he pictured the time he held up the Daily Bugle, the feeling of desperation he had. He couldn't lose then.

And he can't lose now.

Silk too felt her heart pounding as tried to recall the feeling she had whenever Anna forced her to surpass her limits. With one last roar, Spider-Man and Silk felt their strength spiking as they gave one last tug that sent the colossal spider flying above them and slamming harshly into the ground behind them.

*THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*

The ground trembled as the spider-god laid in a crater motionless as Spider-Man Silk panted tiredly. The deity's form began shrinking rapidly until it reverted back into a humanoid Anansi. At that moment, Spider-Man and Silk fell to their knees in pain as their suits began to go on a rampage. The tendril thrashed wildly as the two monstrous heads formed once more and release soul shattering screeches.

BGM: END

-Astral Plane-

BGM: Emil (Sacrifice)-NieR OST

Ero and Philia slammed into the ground next to each other as the deity exploded into countless particles of light. Ero groaned and forced herself to roll over and embrace Philia as the plane around them began to tremble and crack.

"Ero…what's…what's goin on?" Philia asked both fearfully and tiredly as Ero began to spin a cocoon around them.

"Don't worry…we're…we're just going to be taking a nap…that's all." Ero said before pressing her lips to Philia's as she finished covering them in the cocoon. At that moment the ground beneath them gave in and sent them falling into a black void. Within the cocoon Ero felt her eyes shut as Philia's body went limp. "Just...a nap…" Ero repeated quietly one last time before her consciousness left her.

-Spider-Temple-

"What's going on!?"

"The A.I. couldn't handle that much power, it's going rampant! It'll attempt to consume everything in sight!" Spider-Man shouted as he held his head in pain. "Web-Wares Alpha and Omega, activate kill code for Black Protocol."

[Kill Code: Activated]

The monstrous entities screeched as crimson current of electricity erupted from the Web-Wares and danced across the suits. Suddenly the suits that were as black as ink turned as gray as ash. A moment later the suits stopped thrashing and simply disintegrated courtesy of the wind and rain leaving Peter and Cindy naked surrounded by the tattered remains of their armors.

"Is it over?" Cindy asked tiredly making Peter frown

"I think so."

"Hold on, I'll spin us some clothes." Cindy said as she raised her hands towards herself only to pale after a few moments. "W-what? Oh no."

"Cindy?" Peter asked in confusion as he watched her pick up a rock and turned her hand over, only for the rock to simply fall from her palm. "Cindy? What's wrong?"

"My powers…" Cindy began as she held herself tightly. "They're gone."

"What!?" Peter asked in alarm before picking up the rock she dropped. His eyes widened in horror when he realized he couldn't break it. It was at that moment, they heard something shifting and looked up to find Anansi climbing to his feet. They paled as he cracked his next and stretched his arms before gazing down at him.

"You two…" Anansi began menacingly as they found themselves surrounded dozens of Spider-priestesses, even Taran whom had broken free of Julia's grasp. Peter was a man who could fight his way out of any situation, but this one? Powerless and surrounded by a god and magical priestesses that knew your former powers better than you?

Yeah they were fucked.

"We're dead." Cindy muttered a cold realization overcoming her.

"Pass!" Anansi said suddenly with a grin as the priestesses all bowed to them making both Peter and Cindy adopt deer-in-the-headlight expressions.

"What!?" Peter asked incredulously as Anansi nodded while Julia approached with an equally stunned MJ.

"Told you they could do it." Anansi said matter-of-factly making Julia scowl.

"You went easy on them." Julia said as she scowled at him.

"Only a little, truth be told, if they had a way to power those suits more effectively, they would have surpassed me." Anansi admitted making Julia's eyes widen.

"Hold on! What are you talking about!?" Cindy asked angrily as she stood up, not even caring that she was completely naked.

"A test little hatchling. You see, a champion must be second only to the deity they represent when it comes to their roles with their respective domains. The Web is my domain, and up until this point you were puppets of it." Anansi began as he folded his hands behind his back with a kind smile. "That would not do, to be my champion you must control the web, not let it control you. And you succeeded didn't you? For a moment you bent the web to your will." Anansi said as Peter and Cindy thought about the moment that they gazed upon the web.

"You tried to kill us!" Peter snapped making Anansi raise an eyebrow.

"I suppose I was rather convincing. Honestly, I was just going to beat you until you forgot you came here and send you back home then wait until you tried again." Anansi said with a shrug. "Still, you beat me. I am very proud."

"And what about us losing our powers, huh? Was that part of your oh so great scheme?" Cindy questioned tersely only this time instead of explaining anything, Anansi turned to her with a serious expression while the priestesses suddenly tensed and glanced at each other while MJ gasped at the news before looking at Peter and Cindy in concern.

"Lose your powers?" Anansi asked eventually as he placed his hands on Cindy's shoulders, a worried frown on his face. "Are you positive? Tell me everything." Anansi said as he glanced between her and Peter.

BGM: END

-Hours later: Peter's private jet-

MJ sat and looked at Peter and Cindy in concern as the plane headed back to New York. A tense silence hung in the air as Peter scowled and stared out his window while Cindy curled into herself, her eyes covered by the shadows casted by her hair.

*Flashback*

"I see." Anansi said as he paced back and forward, "Those suits consumed anything and everything to power themselves. Safe to say it's not out of the realm of possibility that they even used your totems themselves as batteries to sustain their form. I fear you may have completely drained your totems. Should that be the case…you may never be able to use your powers again." Anansi said seriously making the former heroes pale.

*Flashback: End*

"This is so stupid, this wouldn't have even happened if these gods used their fucking words rather than flashing their powers." MJ thought with a glare of her own as she remembered her encounter with her own deity. She looked up at Cindy whom had released a shuddering breath before unfastening her web-ware and tossing it to the side.

"Cindy!" Peter shouted in alarm making her shrug.

"My wrist is uncomfortable." Cindy muttered as she crossed her arms and gritted her teeth. "Doesn't even matter, I'm certainly not that 'bride' anymore. Morlun can't even tell I'm out." Cindy said before a cool smile graced her lips as she stood up and stretched. "We're free, Pete. We're fucking free."

"Cindy…" MJ began quietly getting Cindy's attention.

"What? You can't tell me you're not happy, why the long face?" Cindy asked with a confused frown of her own. "He doesn't have to endanger himself anymore, I'll be out of your hair and can continue my life, and everyone wins." Cindy said before turning to Peter. "We've done our time. I've waited ten years for this."

"And when this Armageddon comes? What then?" Peter asked with a frown. "We need our powers–"

"–the hell we do. Since coming out I've practically fought two gods after being held captive in an attempt to avoid monsters that can bring a multi-verse to ruin. I should be dead, I could drop dead tomorrow and be happy because I got the last laugh on Ezekiel who I hope is burning in hell." Cindy said coldly.

"Cindy, we're heroes–"

"-and that justifies the hell we've been through? How much more will this world take from us before you realize we don't owe it a goddamn thing!" Cindy snapped angrily, her eyes glistening before she covered her face with her hands before she fell to her knees startling the two. "I hated my powers, all I ever wanted was to never have gotten them in the first place…but now they're gone and it hurts so much, why does it fucking hurt so much!?" Cindy asked angrily before she felt a pair of arms wrap around her.

"They were the only thing that kept you from breaking." MJ answered as he hugged the woman tightly. "A year of solitary can break the hardest criminal, I can't imagine what a decade does to an innocent girl."

"Cindy I know it hurts, it feels like everything you've done until this point has been useless but you need to calm down. You need to stay with us." Peter said cautiously, a tone of urgency in his voice that confused MJ. Cindy tensed in her arms as she two registered the tone in Peter's voice.

"You know." Cindy said as she began to hyperventilate making Peter curse as he stood up and quickly hit a pressure point on Cindy that immediately rendered the woman unconscious.

"Peter!" MJ shouted in surprise. "What was that? What did she mean by 'you know'?" MJ asked as Peter picked Cindy up and placed her back into her chair.

"In my time, when Cindy and I we're…close…she confided into me more about her time alone. You must understand MJ, I've face endless times more danger than she has but if I had the choice between that or being the one locked away? I'd never go to that cell because at least after my battles I had people to come home to. People who've never truly been alone can never understand how bad it is, humans are social creatures. We need others to survive." Peter said quietly making MJ frown.

"Peter what are you getting at?" MJ asked carefully.

"I'm saying there is a reason that if you go back to her cell you'll see patches of paint-roughly the wide of a web-line missing from her ceiling and a very oddly positioned chair. Make of that what you will." Peter said making MJ pale.

"Are you saying she's suicidal?"

"I'm saying she was." Peter stated, putting emphasis on the last word. "But this? This could make her relapse. Losing your powers…it does something to you. It's like losing the ability to walk." Peter said as he gazed into his wife's eyes with a serious expression.

"Is it really that bad?" MJ asked sounding a bit horrified.

"Here's an example, Carol Danvers, Captain Fucking Marvel, one of the strongest heroes I know became an alcoholic just from losing Binary. She didn't even lose all her powers, but that was enough to break her. Picture that." Peter said as he shook his head. "It's a pain I wish on none of my friends yet here I am, I practically forced her in to that suit and now she's powerless."

"Peter. Benjamin. Parker. No." MJ said firmly as she walked over and grasped the sides of his face and forced him to look her in the eye, a feat that was much easier without his super strength. "This is not on you. You thought your life was in danger. This is the fault of gods not knowing how to help those under their so-called protection. This is not your fault." MJ said forcefully as she shook her head. "But Peter, I need you to be honest with me."

"About what?" Peter asked with a small frown.

"How are you holding up?" MJ asked making Peter tense.

"I won't lie MJ, not well, but I have experience with my powers going haywire. Remember when I lost my Spider-sense?" Peter asked making her nod. "It didn't break me, but I learned how to adapt. That's all this is, I just need to adapt…I may not be able to be Spider-Man for the foreseeable future but I'll adapt." Peter said making MJ nod before she gave him a quick kiss.

"You wouldn't be you if you didn't." MJ said with a smile as Peter held her tighter.

-Meanwhile: New York-

BGM: Clubbed to Death-Matrix Soundtrack

"I was wondering if you were really going to show." Silver said as she opened the window to her hotel room and allowed Captain Marvel to come in.

"You sounded as though it were important." Captain Marvel said with a serious expression making Silver nod as she handed the hero a file. Frowning, Captain Marvel began to look over its contents. "The Zodiac." Captain Marvel muttered in confusion, they weren't supposed to be active just yet were they? Perhaps the early start of Parker Industries fast forwarded their plans a bit.

(MT Fun Fact: The Zodiac is a criminal organization based on astrology and one of Parker Industries biggest foes.)

"A terror cell that has been unnervingly efficient. Particularly against my Wild Pack. They have technology far beyond anything I have seen. At first I thought they were working with Parker Industries, but now I know that the company is one of their targets as well." Silver muttered making Captain Marvel glance up at her with a frown.

"So where is the tech coming from?"

"I've traced it to two places, the designs are coming from none other than one Otto Octavius." Silver began making Captain Marvel curse. "The funding, however, is coming from Alchemax."

"Alchemax? Are you sure?" Captain Marvel asked as she glared at the file.

"Positive." Silver said as she poured herself a glass of wine. "The way I see it, the good Doctor wants to go out with a bang, yet it appears as though as he is sticking to the shadows. Perhaps he is working for the Zodiac?"

"Doubtful, Ock is far too intelligent and prideful for that. If anything the Zodiac are his pawns. Still what better way to go out than by trying something new? He wants to fight where he thinks we can't, the shadows." Captain Marvel muttered as she continued to flip through the file before her eyes widened a bit in surprise. "Son of a bitch, he's going to use Alchemax's weapon X program?"

"You knew about the program?" Silver asked with a frown.

"We…were aware it existed, we just didn't know which facility until now. We need to reach them before he has a chance to deploy them." Captain Marvel said with a scowl. "Something tells me Ock is playing for keeps this time around." Captain Marvel said before typing something in her web ware.

"What are you going to do about it?" Silver asked knowing how heroes were when it came to killing.

"What's necessary." Captain Marvel said before the holographic images of Deadpool, Wolverine, and Peter appeared. She was more than a little confused and concerned when Peter answered their private line as himself but she hid it well. "Mr. Parker, where is Spider-Man?"

["Indisposed until further notice. He and Silk have lost their powers for the time being. Something went wrong at the temple."] Peter said as professionally and aloof as possible when he saw Silver in the background. ["Until further notice I will be taking his spot."] Peter said as the other members of the Trinity have expressions of shock, or in Captain Marvel's case, horror.

"You?" Silver sked with a frown as she eyed the man curiously. "What are you capable of?"

["Many things Ms. Sablinova, I am a very powerful man after all."] Peter answered with a cold smile.

"Very well." Captain Marvel began as she swallowed a lump in her throat before giving Peter a look that said they would talk later. "Here's the current scenario." Captain Marvel began before debriefing the three.

["Sounds like a mission for the kids."] Peter mused making his friends look at him in shock but before they could begin protesting he held up his hand. ["I don't mean taking on the Zodiac, only Laura and maybe Miles are ready for that level. What I mean is dealing with the Weapon X program."]

["I don't like it bub, but I see your point. They are the most likely to be able to get the girls on our side."] Wolverine growled out making Peter nod with a smile. ["Though if they succeed, I'll have to be there as well. Ain't no one better to help them than me."]

"Agreed. We'll also need Storm on standby, her powers aren't exactly inconspicuous. Deadpool, Spider-Woman, I, and Mr. Parker will lead the search for Ock. Though I admit, I do worry about your safety Mr. Parker." Captain Marvel said making Peter wave her off.

["SHIELD has been trying to give me a bodyguard for months now, bout time I accept their offer."] Peter said with a chuckle and Captain Marvel had to admit Peter took the loss of his powers better than she expected, at least he appeared to anyway.

["Also, I say we put Shiklah on medic duty, now that she's at her peak she can bring back the dead if she catches them fast enough."] Deadpool pointed out.

"Sounds good." Captain Marvel agreed.

"And the Zodiac? They must pay for their crimes against Symkaria." Silver said with a frown making the Trinity glance at each other as if having a silent conversation before the Captain nodded.

"Tell me, how do you feel about leading a new team?" Captain Marvel asked surprising Silver before she narrowed her eyes.

"Will they be willing to do what's necessary?" Silver asked making all four of them snort before laughing.

"Trust me." Captain Marvel began as she wiped a tear from her eye. "If anything, you'll have to restrain them. We'll meet at P.I. tomorrow at noon."

BGM: END

-Later-

Bobbi was sitting on her couch reading a magazine as she tried to forget the last few days. After Spider-Woman and Hawkeye apparently broke up, her ex-husband was trying to talk things out with her again. Problem was, she wasn't sure if she wanted to or not just yet. She was stuck between wanting to go back to him and an intense desire to move on with her life. Safe to say she was in sore need of a distraction.

Her SHIELD communicator vibrating proved to be just what the doctor ordered.

"Hill? For the love of God tell me you have something, anything, I don't care what sort of mission it is." Bobbi pleaded making Maria hill blink at her owlishly before shaking her head.

["The CEO of Parker Industries believes he's being targeted by the Zodiac. You are to be his bodyguard until further notice."] Maria said making Bobbi groan.

She hated escort missions.

Still a distraction was a distraction.

"Fine let me grab my gear–"

["Not necessary. Mr. Parker is providing you with newer and better equipment because of the short notice, just be there tomorrow before noon. Hill out."] Maria said before she ended the call while Bobbi looked at her communicator in surprise. A client providing her with her weaponry? That was new. Also wasn't Spider-Man Parker's bodyguard? Fuck it, she'll figure it out in the morning.

-The Next Morning: Baxter Building-

"Just promise me you'll be safe." Johnny pleaded after kissing Teresa as his family began boarding their ship.

"Aren't you the one going into space?" Teresa asked with a laugh.

"Yes, but last time I did this you got into a fight to the death with Black fucking Widow." Johnny said dryly making her giggle.

"I promise, I'll play safe for my little Johnny." Teresa mocked with an eye-roll as she pinched his cheek making him give her a mock glare. "I'll see you when you get back." Teresa promised making him nod before he rushed off to catch up with his family. As she watched him depart, she frowned when she got an incoming call from the Trinity's private line.

Looks like she was needed.

-Avenger's Tower-

["Trust me, you will not regret it just do me this one favor. You'll understand later"] Captain Marvel said making Black Widow frown before releasing a sigh and nodding her head after recalling the last time no one listened to Carol or the rest of her new team.

"If it is truly that important, I will come." Black Widow said as she began to leave the tower. It was a slow day anyway. If Captain Marvel needed her help, surely it was going to be something interesting.

-Noon: Peter's private lab-

*Flash*

"Bam!" Lady Deadpool said as she appeared in the room.

"Good, you're here." Captain Marvel said as she floated above everyone and got their attention. "You should all have been debriefed on what's going on."

"Yeah, but where do we start? Has Ock even made an active move against us yet?" Teresa asked curiously while she and Black Widow eyed each other warily. She couldn't help but be defensive as she recalled the last time they met. Natasha, on the other hand, was wondering why she felt as though she had met the woman before.

"Yes." Peter answered his sister as she showed a holographic image of Anna. "At approximately 2 A.M. my Assistant, Dr. Marconi was abducted from her apartment. She is one of the pillars of P.I. and without her, this company would not exist."

"They took Anna!?" Teresa asked in alarm feeling slightly confused by her brother's apparent lack of urgency. "We need to hurry."

"And we will, but she will be fine as long as she sticks to our advice." Captain Marvel said seriously. As long As Anna remembered not to panic, she was positive the Doctor would be safe until they could reach her. "Laura you are to lead your team on a raid of Alchemax, try to be as low key as possible. Dismissed."

"Understood." Laura said as she led her team from the lab while Kamala tried to hold back her joy at going on her first mission.

"Silver, you Natasha, Teresa, and Wanda will be going to the ends of the earth to find the twelve Zodiac leaders. Try to arrest them but if you can't well…we're trying to protect the planet. It's your call to make." Captain Marvel said as she washed her hands of any accountability for the actions of the four spies.

"Excellent, I cannot wait to work alongside such skilled allies. Come, we must discuss how to track down our targets." Silver said as she left the room with Teresa, Natasha, and Wanda.

"Shiklah, your Web-Ware should be able to track our locations. Be ready to heal us should we need it." Captain Marvel said making the Succubus nod. "Wolverine, go make sure the kids don't get themselves killed." Captain Marvel said making the feral grunt before nodding. "Peter…I'm not going to lie, I don't want you out in the field."

"Neither do I." A voice said making them turn to see Mockingbird whom had just finished putting on her new armor courtesy of Parker Industries. Normally she'd have to wait another year before she'd get the costume, but Peter saw nothing wrong with speeding things up a bit. "Okay, I'll admit it Parker, this is nice."

"Told you." Peter said smugly.

"Though how do you know my sizes?" Mockingbird asked suspiciously making him cough.

"One size fits all?" Peter said though it sounded more like a question. Thankfully, the blonde didn't press matters further.

(MT Fun Fact: It's been strongly implied that post secret-wars, Peter and Bobbi are getting a bit…close.)

"And I know you two are concerned about having a…civilian…out there…"Peter began before crossing his arms. "But trust me I'll be fine. I am a Parker after all, what would my parents think if I couldn't take care of myself?"

"He's got a point, I say give him a shot." Deadpool said with a shrug.

"Fine, but stay behind Mockingbird." Captain Marvel said making Peter grin.

"Mockingbird, meet me in the garage, you're driving." Peter said as he a pair of keys to his bodyguard. "We're taking the Spider-mobile. Spidey's not using it right now." Peter said making her nod.

(MT Fun Fact: Peter has no license, as a New Yorker he typically depended on public transportation. That said he is an EXCELLENT driver….thanks to his Spider-sense…Without it? It's better if someone else is behind the wheel of a machine as powerful as the Spider-mobile of all things.)

"What's it look like?

"Trust me, you can't miss it." Peter said making her nod. When she left, he turned back to face them as Jessica approached him with a sad smile.

"So web-er-well Peter, how are you feeling?" Jessica asked seriously making him sigh and shrug.

"Like half a Spider-Man." Peter joked. "I'm fine, it'll take some getting used to, but I'm fine."

"You gonna try to experiment and get your powers back?" Deadpool asked making Peter shake his head.

"Hell no, experience has taught me that experimenting with my powers on that level only leads to disaster. It's like trying to make lightning strike the same spot twice." Peter said as Jessica frowned.

"You're taking this better than I expected…but what about the rookie?" Jessica asked softly making Peter grimace.

"Yeah…after this…she might need one of you to go talk to her, she took it hard." Peter said making them nod. Peter went to leave but stopped as he glanced back at them over his shoulder. "By the way, congratulations you two." Peter said with a smirk making Captain Marvel and Jessica sputter in disbelief.

"What-but-how did you..?" Captain Marvel trailed off in confusion, positive she and Jessica had been nothing but professional.

"I didn't know. Thanks for confirming it though." Peter said with a laugh as he left.

"Spider powers or not, he's still the same asshole." Jessica muttered though her heart obviously wasn't in it. Deadpool cleared his throat as he glanced between Captain Marvel and Jessica before nodding his head.

"I'm touching myself tonight."

The resulting blasts from the two heroines sent Deadpool crashing across the room.

-Meanwhile: Alchemax-

"Leave me alone!" A young girl with black hair, lightly tanned skin, and green eyes shouted as a guard dragged her roughly by her hair.

"Once again your tests results leave much to be desired." The man said before tossing her into a cell and locking it.

"You bastard I thought I told you if you touch her that I would tear you apart!" A vicious voice growled out as a body slammed against the bars of a nearby cell making the guard smirk.

"Oh Bel, when will you learn that you're all bark and no bite." The guard began as he faced a young woman with white hair, red-eyes, pale skin, and scars covering her face. "You bitches can't even feel pain, so why are you getting worked up?"

"Mark my words, I will destroy you." The woman threatened making him laugh.

"That'll be the day." The guard said arrogantly as he walked away, leaving a corridor with four cells. Three of which were filled with pissed of young women and a fourth one occupied young girl who cried to herself to sleep in the corner of her cell.

"Tch. Just you wait, when I get out of here–"

"That's enough Bellona." A voice came from the cell across from hers making the pissed off woman turn to find a young woman that looked identical to her only she had darker skin, black hair, and green eyes. "No point in working yourself up over people like him. He will get his, they all will. Just have patience."

"You keep saying that, Zelda, but what good comes from sitting on our asses all day!? What are we waiting for? Some hero to save us?" Bellona questioned making Zelda sigh.

"We're waiting on an opening, hot head. Relax, study their routine, they're just human. They will make a mistake and provide an opening for us. It's up to us to be able to see that opening and capitalize on it…but that takes time." Zelda said firmly as she eyed her sister.

"She's right." Came a voice from the cell next to Zelda's. The woman occupying it looked identical to Zelda but her skin was a bit lighter. "As always." The woman drawled before smirking. "Still, what I wouldn't give for a hero to show up. Saves us more months of waiting around letting these guards do who knows what to us to keep them away from Gabby."

"That happens, I'll never question you again Para." Zelda joked. "Now rest, training starts in three hours. They kept us up last night."

"If I'm right does that mean you'll let me be leader?" Para questioned making Zelda snort.

"Sure, whatever, now sleep." Zelda ordered as they shut their eyes.

Wolverine: Family Matters Teaser

BGM: Shiki no Uta-Samurai Champloo OST

-Japan-

Logan descended into the water slowly, the will to fight completely gone as he found himself against an enemy he simply couldn't beat. Blood seeped from his wounds and floated up above him as he floated down with his Muramasa blade held tightly within his right hand. He watched the sun glitter from above the water, bathing his body with its majestic light.

What a beautiful end for a creature as foul as him.

He was going to die alone.

The way it was meant to be.

Suddenly, a shadow blocked the light and covered his features as his eyes widened ever so slightly as he saw what appeared to be Mariko descending towards him with her hand stretched out towards him.

"Logan." The woman began with a soft smile. "You were meant for a far more fitting end." She said as he felt his decent slow.

"Honestly, to fall like this? I expected more." Logan heard Emma's voice in his head as he saw her appear to the side of him with her arms crossed and a look of disappointment on her face. Though looking deeper, he could see the concern in her bright blue eyes. "The children need their headmaster, must I remind you who you are fighting for?" Emma asked as she placed two finger to her temple.

Suddenly, he felt something on his back as the image of Laura appeared beneath him and placed her hand on his back.

"No father of mine is going to go down like this." Laura said before a second hand appeared next hers suddenly a woman that appeared nearly identical to Laura but with slightly darker skin.

"Indeed. You claim to be our father. You need to set an example, show me the warrior that we're designed to replicate." The tanned woman said as a third woman appeared. She too was identical to Laura but her skin was much paler, her eyes were red, and her hair was as white as snow.

"Tch. You annoy me sometimes, but I guess deep down I don't want you dead." The woman said with a scowl. "Get up you old geezer."

"You promised to be my daddy right!? To take care of me? To make sure I'm never scared!? Well don't become a liar now!" A young girl shouted as she pressed both of her hands to his back. She appeared virtually identical to Laura, but she was much younger by six years at least. Suddenly the image of Daken appeared as well.

"You already let my mother down. How many more women are you gonna fail in your life old man?" Daken said with a scowl as he pressed his hand to Logan's back whom now felt his body begin to ascend. "Don't you dare let that bastard win. Save my little brother."

"Yeah! Since when do you let kids in need down!?" A voice questioned as Jubilee appeared behind him with a grin.

"I thought you were the best at what you did!" Hisako AKA Armor said as if she were disappointed by the sight of Logan looking so helpless.

"You said you didn't want to waste your second chance…don't do it now!" Amiko said as she appeared as well.

"Ah know y'all ain't gonna try to up and die on us." Rogue said with a laugh as her image appeared along With Kitty's.

"Win this and come home to us, we need you." Kitty said as Logan Finally ascended enough to grab on Mariko's hand Logan found himself being pulled up at a surprising speed.

"You will win because unlike before you have a future worth fighting for!" Mariko said as the hand holding his switched between pale white and dark brown and just before he broke the water, Mariko's image shattered and he could see that it was Storm that was pulling him up.

*Splash*

"Don't you ever scare me like that again, Logan!" Storm snapped as they flew high into the air. "I need you, we all do, don't you dare give up now." Storm said passionately.

"You think you can defeat me?" Logan's enemy questioned as Logan and Storm landed on a nearby bridge. "You two alone cannot stand up to us."

"Good thing they're not alone." A voice growled out and Logan smirked as Laura and the others appeared behind him.

"It's time for round two, bub." Logan said with a smirk.

Reviews:

ANIME RON: I know right? There can only be so many similarities before you can't claim coincidence anymore. Honestly? Not much of an opinion, honestly he's one of my favorite people she's ended up with but they've had so little screen time in her comic that I can't say good or bad.

Griezz: Lol Taran is ride or die when it comes to her faith. Since Original Sin hasn't happened yet, Fury is the MOTW. The thing with the CIA will be explained as Teresa's story progresses.

ShadowBloodedge9396: "Thank you, thank you, no record can stand up to me!"

Be prepared, our (former) Spiders are not safe from MJ. Yup Civil War II is already going off and we lost some major players already. Yeah though surprisingly they haven't showed much of Spidey, most of his stuff is being dealt with in his own Spider-Man/Civil war tie in and seems to be focused on his company instead of Carol or Tony. That said the cover arts imply he's on team Captain Marvel. Civil War was love, it and Deadpool are my favorite hero movies at this point. Anansi is a troll.

Doubledamn: Forgive me, I didn't mean too! No idea, but either way I'm looking forward to homecoming. If you must remember anything it's this, Anansi is a troll. Thanks! MJ had to awaken her inner May to knock some sense into her goddess. Not sure, but honestly one of the reasons I like Doom so much is cause-arrogance aside- he's mainly defeated by himself, he's like the biggest troll out of all Marvel Villains (He is the MU's Aizen), and many times he's just…right.

Taytay90: *Shudders* Ultimate Spider-Man has MJ as an aspiring reporter. Thanks for the review!

Vampireharry The 2: Thanks! Glad you liked it!

Gundamn Kaiser: Oh yeah and we already lost one of the big five Marvel Heroes. One thing that's interesting is that while the last one was a political issue, this one is more ethical. Yeah I see what you mean by Tony, he can be a jackass but he's consistent. And as much of a Captain Marvel fan as I am…I'm not above admitting that he might be right this time around (shocker). Though of course he is escalating things with his rash decisions.

The thing with Miguel is his time in earth-616 was dependent on Spider-verse which LIAG did not cover. Hence why he had no screen time, there wasn't a reason for him to have any. This time around…we'll see. He'll definitely pop up in Spider-Verse.

Hope you enjoyed the Spider showdown!

Budman: Hey everyone has things they like and don't like, a lot of people enjoy seeing it plus it builds character. Can't just go from Armageddon to Armageddon, that's just plain exhauster on the reader and the writer. Trust me, Captain Marvel was one of the best decisions they've made. The thing with Marvel is that they lacked iconic female characters that could truly hold their own against the heavy-weights. She-hulk was close, but she got upstaged by the original Hulk. Black Widow is cool…but at the end of the day she is a human, with limits.

Ms. Marvel was created to bring back the solo teen hero perspective to the earth-616 universe. A perspective they have lacked since Spider-Man grew up. Believe me when I say Ms. Marvel was needed from not just a story standpoint but a business one as well.

The Parkers are dangerous, even Aunt May beat the Chameleon once. The reason they are focusing around MJ is kind of a loaded question. There are many reasons I decided to go this route to be honest that actually don't pertain to LIAG. One reason is because of Mephisto's fixation on meddling with her and Peter's life and wanting to give a bit more background on that. Another is due to MJ's ability to work with the heroes and talk sense into them, believe me it is more than a running gag.

Character archetypes? I feel you to a degree…but there is a limit. I mean Deadpool is a confirmed Deathstroke rip-off so it's not even a character arch-type issue with him. When you have similar rogue galleries? Okay I'll give some leniency but they have shared ARCS. Catwoman turned into a mob boss and later so did Black Cat, that's what I'm talking about.

Kingken: I have plans for Hope that I'll start planting seeds for in the next Date Night issues, so keep an eye out for that.

The Wolf Paladin: Yeah I'm using many similar characters so there will be some similar plot points. One thing to notice, like someone else mentioned, is that without Rebuff and her cracky antics-this story started off on a darker tone. The lack of Capcom character means that their voids will be filled with more Marvel characters which forces us to take a closer look at the MU-which is pretty dark actually.

War Cry's: Forgive me! How about I give you another cliffhanger to make up for it. Haha Thanks for the review!

SomeGuy300: It was literally stated they had true love, they were meant to be and then…rip. Though I see seeds being planted for them to get back together, they might ret-con OMD next year in honor of the 30 year anniversary of Peter/MJ. Lol don't worry I feel you, but if I were you I'd look at ASM 15 like this. The ship didn't sink but rather they both healed and forgave each other, its baby steps to going in the right direction. That said I'd be a liar if I said I didn't want to see what happened with this Mockingbird thing real fast before they hook up again.

Nightgale912: RIP to those ships ;_;7. Yeah harems will be small and manageable, two for each member with MAYBE a third for one seeing how the story writes itself. Yeah, in Cannon? Kiden is a side-character at BEST, an extra you see in the background of a panel or something. I'll say this, some threats may be too big for the trinity and Kiden may be forced to defend herself so you'll still see her in action. But I'm taking a more domestic approach to her compared. As for the tone of the story? Yeah it's much darker than LIAG was and it's just starting.

One thing to keep in mind was LIAG dealt with Peter Parker, the young optimistic scientist whom has been spider-man for a little more than 10 years. THIS however, can be seen as the CEO. The pessimist whom dominated the world whom has only recently found his optimistic side again. The Peter and LIAG was a Spider-Man whom had just developed his no one dies mentality. The current one has long outgrown that way of thinking (Note this has already happened in Canon. Peter hasn't killed anyone yet, but he no longer believes that he can save everyone.) Yeah I hope you enjoy the ride, there are bunch of layers to it that you haven't seen yet, especially when the truly big bad villains begin to show up.

FateBurn: Thanks! Hope you enjoy the chapter!

Duskrider: Glad you liked it! In a battle between the spider god and his totems, a Pyrrhic victory is the only outcome.

Sean Malloy-1: Honestly it might go that route, I found another pairing for Miles that I kind of like more so Bruno isn't out of the running. Spider-Verse? Oh man it'd going to be brutal. Make no mistake, this version will feel MUCH more like a war than the canon one. Innocence will be lost and bodies will drop as things beyond Peter's control escalate the battle to new brutal levels.

Heroman45: Oh yeah. Silver? Well…she wants the Spiders but she knows its easier to get people to side with her through benevolence instead of malevolence. Catch more flies with honey and all that. Seriously the gods suck at explanations.

"I will win one day!"

Like hell, but yeah similarities were scary.

Ferpet: Yup, they are way too good at it. Thanks for the review

"Gwen? She's great! As long as she doesn't end up like Spidey's Gwen. Then again she's a Poole not a Stacey, I have something planned for her. Especially when we have to fight-"

Shut the fuck up! Why I let you read my storyboards, I'll never know. Ignore that.

Shinku Ryuuga: Yeah…the gods have a tendency to be dicks even when they are trying to help. Ms. Marvel is good, gave me that feeling of reading Spider-Man back when he started out.

"Someone had to get these kids in shape!"

Dopplerdee: Glad you liked it and yup, you got it! And you're right about the Goblins/Jokers. That idea for Kamala? Either you read my mind or you've been reading my stuff for too long cause that's close to what I have in mind. I'm going to go with Spider-Ham, idk why it just fits to me even if he's not a pet. Yeah I was just waiting for a time to cut it, only reason she did so in canon was because of Black Cat. Lol yeah the fate talk gets confusing, thanks for the review!

Read and review

Stay classy
