That night, Jedah grinned holding his hive, looking down at the city, "Q-Bee, its feeding time. Oh and you can have the leftovers."

"Time for din-din!" The humanoid insect along with her swarm buzzed at the remaining the people. With a lick of the lips, they leaped into the city and started to consume not only the feast but the souls of the enemies. They let out a scream that roared the whole city.

"I'm sure he will be much too busy with the hive infestation then anything else." Jedah said confidently.

"At long last, I am close to our goal in resurrecting my master." Mordo said. "I would have never though the Crest of the Heaven would be among Doctor Strange Sanctum Sanctorum." At last the last golden Crest was now in his possession, he could feel the demonic energy surging through his entire being.

"I should have known you were behind this savage assault Mordo." Dr. Strange appeared binding the evil sorcerer with his holding chains magic. "It is over now, so why don't you hand over the crest you stolen and I will let you go free back to the Dark Dimension with my warmest regards to Dormammu."

Mordo gave out an evil confident grin. "I think not sorcerer, for I am already a step ahead of you."

Dr. Strange lift his eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Your city is already suffering." Mordo hissed. "You see Stephan Strange? Like you I also have allies now, but you won't be seeing them very long."

Mordo was not buffing as Strange had sense. He heard the constant screams and panics from the citizens. There was a dangerous magic presence infecting the city of New York like a disease. Everyone including his allies was in immediate danger. Quickly, Strange had disappeared back to the city

As he witnessed the supernatural insects feeding off of every human and hero in the city like predators, he started casting out multiple spells at a time. The whole city had become their dinner plate. It was an everlasting feast to feed the whole world for the bees.

"I bet you taste delicious." Q-Bee buzzed into Dr. Strange ear. Before she could sick her fangs into the doctor, she was stopped by Spider-Man.

He swung the monster to the wall. "Sorry Queen-Bee, but the Doc is not on the menu today. You should watch what you eat or you might get a tummy ache."

"There not just bees Spider-Man, they are Soul Bees." Dr. Strange corrected Spider-Man. "They feed off of human souls, but rarely have any bad taste. All that matters is filling their stomachs to last for years to come."

"Well I guess they must have a good health insurance plan."

With a hum, Q-Bee summoned multiple bees. Before their counter attack could be issued, Q-Bee struck them with burst of honey from her hive. Its sticky surface was enough to render Spider-Man and Dr. Strange attacks useless. Neither of them could attack, let alone barely move through the thickest of the honey.

"Man, remind me never to eat honey again." Spider-Man said trying to get himself out.

"Book of Vishanti, break us out of this hold at once before…" As Dr. Strange came to the last word, he was suddenly stricken from behind. With psychotic laugh, Jedah gloated at his mighty triumphant. The blood of Jedah's blade injured Dr. Strange greatly, paralyzing him. The poison of Jedah's blood started making its way though his veins.

"There will be no more surprise attacks out of you Stephan Strange." Mordo said tying Dr. Strange in magical chains, combined with Q-Bee's thick honey. "We must go at once, there is much planning to be done."

In his weaken state; Dr. Strange whispered some spells, thus activating two spells. One was transferring the powerful Eye of Agamotto to Spider-Man's possession and the second was teleporting him to a much safer location. "Spider-Man; I have an ally who will help you. The Eye of Agamotto will call him at once, regroup with him." Dr Strange said before he vanished.

The witch followed the trail to reveal a barrier over to Central Park. Through the night, nothing had appeared but a homeless man sleeping on the park benches, but wasn't conscious as the witch suspected. She would have not noticed the field until she crashed into the barrier. As she stroked back her cloak, she had cast a powerful elemental attack against the barrier. The two magic attacks had collided breaking hole through the barrier park.

As she entered the barrier, she observed her book once more. "Reveal to me the ones who defend this world." Tessa commanded her book. With her command, it delivered multiple images of different heroes that defend this world, every one of Avengers and non-Avengers. Already this had sparked her Sorcererologist curiosity, but where were they was unknown to this point.

By the touch of the fallen man, her question was soon answered. They were alive, but their souls were taken from their bodies. Then out of the darkness, a swarm of Soul Bees went for the ambush of the Sorcererologist, but was quickly repelled by her invisible shield. However, she was not the only one fighting those insect foes. Spider-Man was also having a tough time with their massive numbers. No matter how much the webhead hid, they were locked to his location like Heat Seekers.

"Hey Eye of Agamotto, if your there, I could really use your help right about now." Spider-Man called out. With flash of energy along with the witch's magic, the Soul Bees were pushed back and forced to retreat. "Man that was too close, thanks whoever you are."

"I am Tessa. And you've displayed impressive magic powers, but I doubt that the experience is not within you. The Eye of Agamotto is after all given to those chosen by destiny." Tessa reminded helping Spider-Man on his feet. Sensing a Soul Bee from behind, Tessa blasted it away without looking.

"Yeah, well it's on a loan for a while." Spider-Man's spider sense triggered. "But I have a feeling that our blood hungry friends will not be giving up anything soon."

"You dare lay your fangs on me insect demon!" Thor shouted bringing down the lighting on the rest of the Soul Bee troops.

Then suddenly a howl caught their undivided attention, racing on his four legs, the beast cutting down more of the Soul Bees that cross his path, no mercy was given whatsoever. Immediately, Tessa and Spider-Man were ready for the next foe, but Tessa sensed otherwise.

Leaping at from the highest location a blue and white wolf wearing purple martial arts pants, approached them. He transformed into in mainly form soon after. "Greetings Spider-Man my name is Jon Talbain, I have received the message from Dr. Strange regarding this situation."

"I guess Strange must have had you listed in his magic phone books." Spider-Man gave a witty combat.

Talbain said back, "There is much danger afoot Spider-Man, and I'm not just referring to that sorcerer."

The God of Thunder landed to ground level. "Indeed, I sensed darker presences."

"Yeah and just how can it possibly get any worse?"


All six of the Demon's Crest was all in place as the magic seal was set. Right place and the right time had been planned ahead of schedule. After everything was set, the sorcerer and the monster prepared the opening summoning. Nothing can stop them now.

As the crest began to glow, it was finally the time. They were united like a happy family. While Hood was on his many crime operations, he felt a pain in his head. With every struggle it began to worsen. "The time has come to emerge Parker Robbins; you have served me well as my vassal." The Dread Lord shouted in Hood's head.

"No; what are you doing to me!?" Robbins moaned, losing control of his own body.

Ready to arrest the criminal, the police marched their way towards Hood. Fire started to burn deep inside the villain, and soon it was now burning outside. Hood's skin was now melting away. After a few seconds, the master of magic rose from the human. In front of his servant Dormammu stood.

"You have done well Mordo, but I have brought more allies to aid with my conquering of this realm." Dormammu said, presenting more troops. "Satana Hellstorm, a Succubus blessed with great demon and magical powers, and Anakaris, an Egyptian pharaoh of the 12th line."

Bearing his sharp fangs, Jedah grinned, "Now it's time my plans come into motion."
