Author's Note: Sorry, would have updated Sunday but my computer had a virus. Though with the amount of chapters I have and only one review, I doubt anyone actually reads this! (:P) Oh well, this is just reprinting anyways.

Ok, again, remember the a/b thing, k? K! All of this is owned by Marvel. Characters contributed by lifeisacabaret are Card, Groaylesasd, and all the others in that group.


A Team Together And A Mending Heart


Soon the three are off. Card reconstructs a plane out of a papyrus plant, an early form of paper, which would carry them away. Spider-Woman sealed all the joints tight so it would be harder to wreck the plane in a crash like last time. Groaylesasd would be using his psychic abilities to tell if they were approaching a storm area, last warning being Sarah's spider-sense. It took a couple hours of constant arguing and simple annoyance being stuck with the bunch for that long, but the recruits soon landed in Germany, and both Card and Groaylesasd fell to the ground in pain, on what appeared to be the outskirts of Potsdam, Germany, a heavily populated capital city. Luckily they were out of earshot.

"Look, if you guys didn't like where I kicked ya, then maybe you should have thought twice before – "

"No…..Sarah…." Card managed to choke out. "Our mental link! It's very strong. Either Random, Eureka, & Viscous are all in Germany, or someone's real close!"

"How about both?" said a man who looked among the group in disbelief. Spider-Woman realized what was happening. Soon the four of them, Groaylesasd, Random, Eureka, & Viscous, were talking to each other, catching up, and so loud Sarah just couldn't understand what anyone was saying! Still, she missed her old team.

Ironic, isn't it? The day I bring a team together is yet another day where my team has already fallen apart. Brian is controlled, Brent wouldn't wanna see me, I left Mel in New York, so I'm left alone trying to gather up a group of strangers to fight, and I'm not even with friends.

They all hop on board, and then Eureka starts speaking in formulas, apparently that's his power, on when they should arrive to a show-down in New York. (Sorry lifeisacabaret, if I actually put formulas in there, I wouldn't understand my own writings, and I couldn't write that much of an action/drama now then, could I?) Yup, time to get ready for war.

"Um, can't we get there any faster? Card's elbow is in my stomach."

"Sorry Spidey, I just couldn't make a bigger plane with the resources I had to make it out of. Only a percentage of that stuff is actual paper, and paper is what my powers are limited to!"

"I could alter the formula for acceleration and be there in a limited time," said Viscous. "I just need to explain I will not take responsibility for, well, you've seen car crashes, right?"

"Forget it, I'll be patient, but Card better move over some!"

The gang was about half way across the ocean, when they heard a kind of whoosh sound and Sarah's spider-sense went off. A fleet of what appeared to be hovering platforms with missiles and lasers, and the one in front had what can only be described as a giant T.V. in the front came up, and who other than General Core would be on screen.

"You're time is up Spider-Woman. You wanted war - - - you got it. You have your rebels, I have highly trained special agents from around the world. This is your last chance for your miniscule army to surrender!"

No one responded, sending back only hateful glares. It was apparent they aren't going to give up, so SHIELD prepared the weapons, TV screen now tucked away, replaced by some target-locking mechanism. That's their cue to fly the plane as fast as they could. As Viscous altered the formula of acceleration and decreased the time needed to take them back to New York, the hovercraft launched missiles in an attempted to bring them crashing down! Card maneuvered the plane in avoidance, but the crew took a hit.

The team was lowered to a few feet above the water, entering a fast approaching shore of the New York Harbor. If they couldn't get more altitude soon, it's certain that they would crash. Soon the SHIELD armada all began to fire lasers. Spider-Woman tried to use her webs to block the holes they were coming out of, but between the rocking plane and the fire arms, not to mention the little given room, it was impossible for her to make a direct hit on any of the targets.

"Maybe I can help!" says Random, motioning to suggest he was about to use a power.

"Wow, he speaks!"

"Shut it Card!"

Random fired off laser-beam eyes and sent a few of the SHIELD tumbling into the ocean. Everybody looked surprised, yet delighted, that there were now only a few enemy ships left.

"Um, Random, forgot to ask what your power was. Laser eyes?"

"No. It's different every time. I would have done it earlier, Spider-Woman, but a few minutes ago my power was growing hair through my – "

"Don't Even Finish That Sentence!"

Then a huge helicarrier beat them there as the gang headed up onto the shoreline. It covered over 10 square blocks of Manhattan. All the civilians headed inside, and the agents explained over the intercom not to panic, and that the threats will be eliminated soon. What must have been thousands, maybe even a hundred-thousand SHIELD agents descended from the helicarrier. The war has begun.
