Year one…
Peter tensed as Grail landed before him with her ax raised and a sinister smirk adoring her face. He couldn't help but gulp in slight fear, after all this woman could single handedly take on the entire Justice League at once and kick the ever-loving hell out of them
It also didn't help that he and the dark goddess may have had a thing back when he was under the influence of Venom
"H-Hey Grail… fancy seeing you here!" Peter sent a timid wave at possibly his most dangerous and powerful ex
"Peter…" she said with a purr as she lowered her ax "I've seen you've been well…"
"Uh yeah, you know eating my vegetables and getting plenty of exercise" Peter said as he took a step back
Grail saw this and smiled and began to approach him with a sway in her hips and a coy smile on her face that somehow looked erotic and terrifying at the same time "Peter why are you so nervous after all… if I wanted you dead"
She then suddenly appeared right in his face with a grin "You'd be dead"
Peter on instinct shot away from her and sent several web bullets at her, which she slashed away with her ax before leaping at him with it raised. Peter quickly side stepped the deadly weapon and sent an elbow into the New God's face beofre following it up with a powerful kick to the gut that sent Grail flying off the building
Grail to her credit righted herself in mid-air and shot her Omega beams at Peter who quickly jumped off the building and began to perform a series of unnaturally complicated maneuvers in an attempt to dodge the deadly beams of the Omega Effect. Looking up and seeing several Parademons flying by Peter held in a wince as he shot passed them
"Sorry guys!" Peter said as the Parademons were blasted by Grail's Omega Beams
To his surprise they stopped after tearing through the alien soldiers but before Peter could think more on it his spider sense flared just as a Boom tube opened beofre him and Grail herself barreled out of it and right into his shocked form. She pulled him into a powerful bear hug that also coincidently plunged his face right into her chest
'No seriously why do I keep attracting powerful crazy women? Why can't it be those nice quiet understanding types?' Peter mentally groaned as the two painfully, least for him, landed on a partially destroyed Daily Bugle news van
"Ow" Peter said as Grail stood up and grabbed him by the ankle and slammed him into the ground which earned another groan of pain from him before flinging him into a nearby car "Double ow…"
"Peter, Peter, Peter…" Grail said as she approached him casually while her and her brother's forces were killing and destroying cities all over the planet "What's this I hear about you being married to Wonder Woman?"
"You heard about that?" Peter groaned out as he tried to stand only for Grail to plant her foot on his back
"Yes I did" Grail said with a glare "And I can't help but feel insulted!"
"How?" Peter said before he was lifted by the neck and held face to face with Grail's
"How could you marry her!?" Grail practically growled out in rage as her eyes glowed red
Peter tried to remove Grail's iron clad grip from his throat so he could breathe "I-I-If I r-recall… you said I w-was… too weak! Than you l-left"
"Yes but that doesn't give you the right to turn around and immediately marry my nemesis not even a year later!" Grail shouted beofre she pulled Peter into a headbutt that nearly broke his nose before throwing him down the destroyed street beofre leaping at him with her fist rasied
Peter rolled with it beofre he hopped back up and ripped a lamp post out of the ground and swung it right into Grail's surprised face, sending her flying into the sky
"And the crowd goes wild as rookie sensation Spider-man knocks her out of the park in favor of the Yankees!" Peter said triumphantly before seeing dozens of Parademons approaching him "Hmm must be a Boston crowd"
Before he could move to engage the Parademons a hail of bullets began to tear into he horde causing them to stop and try and take cover from the merciless onslaught of bullets. Peter looked to the source and was surprised to see Frank Castle aka the Punisher armed with a mini-gun unleashing a hail of lead on the invaders
"Never thought I'd be happy to see you Frank!" Peter said as he took the pole he was holding and threw it at one of the Parademons and nailed it right in the face
"Be lucky I even bothered to help you webs!" Frank shouted as he dropped the heavy weapon and shouldered an assault rifle and began to fire in short controlled bursts at the Parademons approaching him in the head while Peter shot numerous webs lines at them to either restrain them or divert their attention from the former U.S. special forces operative
"You know you're going to run out of bullets before they run out of bodies to throw at you, right?" Peter asked as he ducked under a swipe from a Parademon and gave it a kick to the face
Peter didn't get chance to hear what Castle said as suddenly his spider sense blared and he just narrowly dodged a swipe from Grail's ax. Sadly, he couldn't didge the knee to the face she gave him that broke his nose and sent him flying into a building inhabited by frightened people. Peter shook his head in slight pain beofre turning to see a small kid looking at him with fear in their eyes
"Mr. Spider-man… are we going to die?" the little kid asked tearfully
"No, don't worry little man I'll keep you guys safe" Peter said to put the child at ease beofre Grail appeared and grabbed him by the throat "Me on the other hand…"
Grail snarled as she threw Peter through the ceiling and multiple floors until he crashed through the roof and into a billboard. Peter with years of experience and his spider sense was able to block the punch she sent towards him beofre he back handed her away. Not letting up on the stunned alien princess Peter shot two web lines at her chest and pulled her into his fist that brutally connected with her face and sent her flying across the rooftop. He winced as he shook his hand in slight pain, already knowing that he possibly fractured something
'Damn this girl is durable' Peter thought as he watched Grail stand up with a smirk on her face
"I forget how strong you can be Peter" She purred as brushed her hair out of the way and stood up and looked to see her hordes of Parademons attacking her former lover's city "It's a shame you aren't strong enough to stop us…"
"Why are you and Kalibak here rail?" Peter demanded as launched himself at her and threw a series of punches and kicks that she either blocked or dodged
She caught one of his fists and pulled him close and wrapped her leg around him "Would you believe that I came here to see you?"
Peter blushed under his mask at feeling Grail's assets pressed up against him "Why me?"
Grail smirked darkly as she grabbed Peter by the throat and held him up "What can I say Peter… your amazing"
She reared her fist back ready to punch him square in the face and likely kill him when suddenly a web line caught her fist. She turned to see it was the Scarlet Spider and Tarantula who've arrived
"I wondered where you two were" Grail said with a disinterested tone beofre her eyes began to glow "Leave, this doesn't concern you!"
"Uh princess, that's our brother your holding. It kind of does concern us" Scarlet Spider said with narrowed lenses
"So how about you put him down and waltz on home to daddy?" Tarantula said as he released his stingers from his wrists
"Really wish you didn't say that" Peter chocked out as Grail smirked
"So you want me to return home with my daddy?"
Kaine and Ben both looked at each with a questioning gaze beofre Ben looked back and nodded "Uh yes?"
"No dammit!" Peter screamed out "HER DADDY ISN'T WHO YOU THINK IT IS!"
Grail laughed as she opened a Boom Tube and prepared to enter it with Peter who renewed his struggling "You heard your brothers Peter, they want me to leave with you"
"Wait what?" Kaine said win shock "You and her… DUDE HOW THE HELL DO YOU KEEP SCORING WITH WOMEN LIKE THIS?"
"Last week, I had Shriek stalking me, thinking that I was him" Ben said dryly "Also anyone else creeped out at the image of Grail calling Spider-man daddy?"
"GUYS LESS TALKING MORE SAVING!" Peter shouted as he tried to punch Grail in the face only for her be barely fazed by it
Ben and Kaine prepared to move in a free their brother when several Parademons landed before them and began to attack them. Grail smirked as she turned and began to approach the swirling vortex that would return her and her new prize to Apokolips
'I'm sure father won't mind me keeping Peter…' Grail thought in sadistic glee at having her old toy back in her possession be it by his choice or not
Peter felt dread build up inside him at being taken to Apokolips when suddenly he felt an odd feeling in his hands as Grail prepared to enter the Boom tube with him. His eyes widened at the hold familiar tingling and narrowed his eyes
'Have no idea how I still have this but right now I ain't complaining!' Peter thought as he grabbed Grail's face and before she could react he zapped her with his recently returned Venom blasts
KAZZZZZZZAT!
Grail yelped in slight pain and surprise at being blasted with tens of thousands of volts of bioelectricity and released Peter. Peter landed in a crouch before sending a powerful kick into Grail's gut and right into the Boom tube. He quickly shot a web line out and snatched her visible mother box and yanked it to him before he closed the portal and used the device to slam it into an approaching Parademon
'There, that should keep her occupied for a while. Now all I have to do is find a way to stop a horde of killer ali- WHAT THE HELL?' Peter jumped in surprised as suddenly the Parademons he, Ben and Kaine were fighting suddenly exploded as it something tore through them at the speed of light.
And it wasn't just on the roof, across the sky and city Peter can see Parademons being destroyed by the hundreds in a manner of seconds, much to his shock
"Holy hell…" Ben looked up at the falling shred remains of the Parademons. It was like confetti almost
"What was that?" Kaine said as he brushed some of the Parademon confetti off his head
"Superman…" Peter said as he came to stand beside his brothers "Superman did it"
The three spider themed heroes watched the pieces of Parademons fall in silence only for it be broken by the sound of their coms going off.
Kaine looked at his and grunted "It's Batman"
"Something tells me I know what he wants to talk about" Ben said
"Yeah, Superman just wiped out thousands of Parademons in the span of a few seconds" Peter said as he shot a web line out "I'll head over to Gotham and see what's up. Ben, you can head home. Kaine you wanna go with him or me?"
"I'm going to go check on Felicia" Kaine said with a shrug "She was down by Hell's Kitchen when these things hit"
He then took off before Peter or Ben could comment. Ben let out a snort at his departing brother beofre he gave a nod towards Peter before leaving as well. Peter watched them both go before he let out a sigh
'Really hope Batman's plan works… because I'm really not looking forward to facing down Superman in a fight after what he just did'
And done.
So yeah I made Grail an ex of Peter's because I thought it'd be interesting when she returns later in the story. Also, can you imagine Diana's reaction when she hears that her husband use to sleep with the daughter of Darkseid? Finding out Deathstroke is his godfather will pale in comparison to that!
As for the whole venom blasts, let's just say that kiss he got from the possessed Circe plays into it
