Once he opened his eyes again, he was back at the Osborn rally right before the explosion. The biggest difference is that everything, all except for him, was all black and light.

"What the hell is this?" Peter questioned.

"I must be honest." Li's voice called out and he spun around and saw him. "I was hoping to bring you here. My abilities lend me a certain...persuasiveness."

Peter than ran over to him and tried to punch him, but the second he made contact, he evaporated into thin air.

"I was watching you." Li called out and Peter saw him on top of a banister and quickly leaped up to catch him. "I was waiting for you at City Hall."

Peter then leaped in with his leg out, ready to kick him but Li once again evaporated into smoke before he could reach.

"But you never came...where were you?" Li asked as he appeared in the middle of the crowd.

Peter then raced over to him again just as the Demons all exploded and caused everything to become destroyed.

"It was a shame so many people had to die. No heroes to save them." Li stated from the stage where Davis and Clint were once standing. "Those officers were here because of you, weren't they? And Norman wanted to use them."

Peter quickly shot two webs and leaped himself at Li, but just like before he then just went through him and he dissolved.

"And where was Norman?" Li asked and appeared down the stage where Peter saw the Norman and guard were leading him away from the destruction. "Slinking away like a rat! He is a cancer on this city."

Peter tried to keep up with Li, and finally got ahold of him just as a flash of light consumed his vision and he's met with a Demon mask in front of him.

"Put on the mask! Become one of us. I can give you the power." Li offered to Peter, but he knew there was a better way to fix everything Norman's done.

Peter grabbed the mask and looked up to Martin who grew a smile, thinking he's corrupted Spider-Man.

"Thanks...BUT NO THANKS!" Peter stated as he webbed the mask and threw it back at Li, causing a blow to finally land a blow on the man, causing another flash of light to consume them both.


Peter then opened his eyes and found himself back on the side of the tank/truck and punched Li, giving him enough time to web the side of a nearby building and use all of his strength to tilt the side of the truck and cause it to crash.

Once woke up and saw the truck was demolished, the Demons were gone, but saw that they left Isaac. Quickly stumbling to his feet, Peter raced over to help him stand up.

"You okay?" Peter asked him.

"Did they take it." Isaac asked in fear.

Peter did a quick scan around the area and saw there was no sign of the briefcase. "Yeah. How worried should we be?"

"Very." Isaac answers. "But there might still be a chance to stop him. He's going to want to release it somewhere with heavy foot traffic. There isn't enough to cover the city, but if even one person was affected-"

"We could have a city-wide pandemic." Peter understood just as he heard a helicopter and looked up to see a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicopter come flying in. "Come on!"

On the said helicopter was none other than the Black Bat and her merry men as they came down and marched over to the two of them.

"Where's the serum?" Bat asked Isaac and Peter.

"Gone." Peter informed them.

Black Bat scoffed and snarled at Peter. "Some hero you are. You think you're helping, but you're making things worse!"

"Me?! Last I checked, he was under your protection!" Peter reminded Black Bat. "I hope Osborn kept the receipt for your services, because he's not getting his money's worth!"

Black Bat then pulled out two guns in anger and aimed them at Peter.

"Really? You need two of those?!" Peter asked and webbed them just as Black Bat pulled out another weapon that was shaped like a bat and cut Peter's sleeve.

"Enough!" Isaac demanded the two of them who froze as they were ready to battle the other. "We need to debrief Mr. Osborn, now." He told Black Bat and turned to Peter. "Go. I'll be fine. Thank you."

Peter then walked off and swung away while they took Isaac away in the helicopter.

"I'm gonna have to cover a lot of ground, fast. And I can't be at the train station, bus station, and the airport at the same time." Peter whispered as he tied to come up with a plan when an idea struck him. It was risky, but if Devils Breath gets out, it could mean the end of the city, possibly the world.


"You want us to what?" MJ asked in a quiet corner of F.E.A.S.T. as she and Anya were talking to Peter over the phone.

"Li has the Devils Breath. If we don't stop it here and now, this could become a global pandemic in under a month." Peter explains to them. "I wouldn't ask if there was another way, but I need you guys. I'm going to cover the airport, that leaves the train station and bus station. Help me, Anya, and MJ. You're my only hope. And possibly the city's."

"Damn you and your Star Wars references." MJ sighed as he knew that was the one thing that caused MJ to agree to just about anything. Something he and Ned discovered on accident and rarely took advantage of...doesn't mean she returned the favor. "Fine, I'll cover the train station."

"Then I'll take the bus." Anya guesses.

"If you see anything suspicious, call me." Peter said before hanging up.


The three of them split up and took their assigned locations and called in every half hour.

"I've got nothing. You guys got anything?" Peter asked into the comms as he watched the airport for anything suspicious.


Anya was at the bus station, grabbing some food from the vending machine and eating it while walking back to a bench.

"I've got nothing over here, unless you count a Latin-American teenager strolling around suspiciously." Anya commented.


"Meh, if anyone gets suspicious, just say your waiting for your parents. It's saved my neck a few times..." MJ shrugged as she was watching another train enter and exit the station. "But I've got nothing." She said just as she got up and noticed Li walk in with several other men behind him. "I...spoke too soon. Li's here."

"What?! MJ, you need to get out of there before he spots you!" Peter demanded of her whilst Li took noticed of the shocked redhead.

"Yeah...that train already left the station." MJ said as Li approached her with a stern look.

"I'm on my way there now, hang tight!" Peter promised her.

"This will be easy for everyone if you remain calm and do as I say." Li tells MJ as his eyes began to glow black and white.

MJ just began freaking out until she noticed a nearby security guard. "Help! Please!"

The guard then noticed the two and began approaching when another one of the Demons stopped him whilst the other stabbed him with his sword.

The entire station then cried in fear whilst the Demons locked down the entire place down.

They then took all the people in the station and brought them into a pile in the middle of the room whilst Li made a call to city hall.

"What do you want?" Osborn asked.

"I want you at the East Station in under half hour. By yourself. Or their will be more blood on your hands." Li demanded as he hanged up.

MJ then spotted them carrying the Devils Breath container within something with a timer attached for half an hour.

"Did you guys hear that?" MJ asked into her phone that was currently in her pocket and on speaker.

"This must've been his plan the whole time." Peter said while swinging towards the station. "Show Norman what he did while he releases Devils Breath and make him responsible for it."

"It makes sense...in a twisted, psychotic way." Anya guesses.

"All right, MJ, I'm just outside. Anything I should be alarmed about?" Peter asked.

"Just some Demons, that's all there is here." MJ reported.

"Okay...three teenagers against an army of Demons and if we fail, we'll cause the apocalypse." Anya recapped everything happening.

"Thanks for that reminder, Anya." Peter sarcastically replied as MJ noticed him sneak through the vents and out into the open. "MJ, I'm gonna need your help. I'll keep the Demons distracted, but you're going to have to take care of the bomb."

"What?!" MJ quietly screamed.

"I need to stop Li, so it's up to you." Peter explains and leaps down in to start the fight. "Hey, guys. This whole hostage situation? I'm giving this station three stars online." He stated as he yanked two demons from behind and threw them into their friends.

"Kill him!" Li demanded his army as they start opening fire on Peter and he dodges the incoming fire whilst the hostages take the opening to run while they focused their fire on Spider-Man.

"Okay, MJ, now's your chance." Peter said as he shot a web in one of their faces before kicking another's gun out of their hands and then smacking them with it. "Honestly, this is becoming easier."

Just then, his senses go off and he looks to see someone walking with power laced giant whips.

"Okay, there's no one to blame for this but me." Peter stated as he realized that he said the words that should never be spoken before leaping to dodged the whips, but felt the heat radiating from them.

MJ made it over to the device and saw they had ten minutes. "Okay, Pete, what am I doing?"

"Just pull the red wire! That's usually what does it!" Peter cried as he was sent flying across the room and landed on his hands and feet. "Okay, now I'm angry."

"Okay, MJ, keep calm." MJ told herself as she looked over the bomb and saw the wires were all bundled, but they weren't colored. There was a red end where the power is, but she had one shot, or she might just set it off early.

MJ closed her eyes, looked away and yanked one of the wires by the end and waited for something to happen.

"Did I do it?" MJ asked and saw the timer had stopped and the Devils Breath hadn't been released. "I did it!"

"Great!" Peter cried as he uppercuts one of the Demons. "Now get out of here!"

MJ nodded in agreement and raced out of the station where the police were getting ready to storm the place.

"Take care of Spider-Man. I'm leaving." Li informed one of them and marched towards one of the trains.

Peter then shot two webs and slingshot himself at two of the Demons and spun them around to knock a few others out as he saw the Demon with the whips and dodged another swing from them.

Once he had an opening, Peter shot his face, did a roundhouse kick to the face, then punched him out cold.

"Anyone else?!" Peter cried out, ready to keep going but then noticed that all of them were already taken care of. "Huh...well, that was a little anticlimactic. Where's Li?"

Then he heard that one of the trains were leaving and he raced over and saw the train leaving.

"You're not getting away with free travel that easily!" Peter cried as he webbed the back of the train and pulled himself inside where Li was waiting for him.

"Finally. I've been waiting for you, Spider-Man." Li said with a smile as he leaped at Peter.

Peter dodged it though by leaping onto the wall of the train and using one of the poles to spin around and kick Li, sending him backwards.

"Once I'm done with you, I'll pry that mask off your corpse!" Li promised Peter.

Peter just webbed the walls and kicked himself and Li through the doors and into the next car. Li was sent skidding across the floor as Peter stood by the back of the train.

"Why are you doing this, Martin?" Peter asked.

"I'm paying off an old debt." Li stated as he summoned some energy and sent a wave at Peter, which he quickly dodged and leaped before tackling Martin down.

That so don't work as Li was enhanced due to the energy and smashed Peter into the ground.

"You're sick, let me help you." Peter pleaded.

"You don't know me!" Li stated as he punched Peter in the face and slammed him into the ground.

"That's where you're wrong..." Peter stated as he knew this was a huge risk, but it was worth it if it'll stop him. He reached up and yanked his mask off, revealing his face to Martin. "I do know you."

Martin then suddenly pulled back and turned to normal in shock at what was in front of him. "Peter?"

"Sorry, Martin." Peter apologized as he took this opportunity and punched Li out with ease. "But I had to."


Once Li woke up, he was strapped down to a gurney and being placed into a truck for transport, as well as Devils Breath. Not to mention the whole thing of Norman stepping down as Mayor of Starling.

Peter was watching everything on the evening news from the safety and comfort of his home with Anya and MJ with him when Yuri called.

"Congratulations, your first supervillain, world ending crisis, and you came out on top. How do you feel?" Yuri asked.

"Why do you sound like a reporter?" Peter asked her.

"Probably because I've been attacked by them all day about Li and Devils Breath. I just wanted to say good job out there. I might even call you in for a few other favors."

"Does that mean we're going to be working together further?" Peter asked.

"I guess we are." Yuri confirmed.

"Does that make me...Spider-Cop?" Peter asked with a smile.

"Don't push it." Yuri warned him before hanging up.

"I'm growing on her, I can tell." Peter said with a smile just as they saw Miles coming in.

"Hey, guys." Miles greeted them.

"Hey, Miles, we were just talking about going out to see a movie or something. Any suggestions?" Peter asked.

"I suggested that cool new superhero movie coming out called Man of Steel." MJ informed Miles.

"I think we've had enough action this past few weeks with everything that's been happening and thought we should see that new Disney animated movie, Frozen." Anya stated.

"And I just told them to decide because I can easily pay for us to see both." Peter stated with a pleading look before mouthing. 'Help me!'

"Uh, I'm fine with anything." Miles said nervously. "But listen, there's something I gotta tell someone, and I can't tell my mom, because she'll freak."

"What is it, Miles?" Anya wondered.

"Uh...your dad's not here, is he?" Miles asks, looking around the living room. "Man, this is nicer than my whole house." He muttered to himself.

"No, Walter's out taking care of the family business. Probably gonna be gone for the night. What's wrong?" Peter asked.

"Uh...weird things have been happening. Physically." Miles told them, causing the room to go silent.

The three of them then leaned in and left Miles out of the conversation.

"You gonna take care of this one?" MJ asked Peter.

"What? Come on, it was creepy enough for me to hear it from Walter, now I have to do it?" Peter asked as he crossed his arms from a shiver at the reminder.

"Well, we're not going to be able to do it." Anya stated.

Peter sighed and turned to Miles. "Well, you know, you're at that age where your body starts-"

"NO!" Miles quickly stopped him. "Not that." He then sighed before looking up to the ceiling. "Here, maybe it's better to show you."

"No! No!" The three of them cried just as Miles kneeled down and flipped and landed on the roof and sticked there, causing them to look shocked.

"Pretty weird, right?" Miles asked.

Peter smiled as he turned to face the girls who look just as surprised as he does, and he leaped and flipped onto the ceiling and mirrored Miles.

"Not that weird in this house." Peter told him when an alert went off. "What is it?"

"Looks like we should check out the Spider's Nest." MJ said.

"What happened to Web Base?" Peter questioned as he dropped down from the ceiling, leaving a shocked Miles.

"You're... you're Spider-Man?" Miles asked Peter.

"Powers give it away, don't they?" Peter joked and turned to MJ. "As I asked..."

"Meh, I have a feeling the web needs to be expanded." MJ guessed as she gestured up to Miles who's currently having trouble coming off from the roof.

"Miles, you good?" Peter asked.

"I...it usually takes a second." Miles said just as he dropped off the ceiling and luckily the couch cushioned most of his fall. As did the coffee table.

"Well, there goes 20 dollars." Peter sighed in annoyance.


In one of the warehouses where the Demons were stationed, one of them were thrown out of the window in a terrified scream before being crossed off as he hit the ground.

Inside, every one of the Demons were shooting at one man, but all they get in return are arrows in the chests even faster.

The entire warehouse is covered in bodies. All murdered by one man.

But this was not the Vigilante, nor was it Spider-Man.

This man wore a suit similar to a ninja's, with it being all black and gold outlines, followed by a hood and mask covering his face with a quiver and sword silt on his back.

One Demon raced over with a sword without any of the power on it, but the masked man brought up their sword and quickly took care of him with a stab in the stomach.

Their leader raced outside and tried to make a break, but the masked man stopped him as he leaped down in front of him.

"Why are you doing this?" He asked the man in Japanese as he drew his sword. "We never did anything to you!"

"That's where you're wrong. I know Martin Li wasn't the one funding the Demons. He was just the leader. You're going to tell me who gave you the resources and the knowledge of Devils Breath." The man demanded back in Japanese as he drew his own sword.

The Demon raced in and swung, but the masked man dodged the swing and raised his sword to block the second swing. He then smacked the sword out of the way and ducked from the swing.

"Tell me his name, and I might just let you live!" He promised the Demon.

"Me? You killed my men!" He stated and swung in for another swing, but another miss and he elbowed the Demon and used it to slice his throat. Not enough to kill him, but it's deep enough so he's chocking on his own blood.

"His. Name!" He demanded from the Demon.

"I don't know his name!" He finally gives in. "Save me. Please...I'll give you anything."

"I want my wife back." The man demanded in English as he stabbed the man in the chest and wiped the blood off on his sleeve.

He then sighed as he raised his hand and removed his hood and mask to reveal to be none other than Clint Barton and he reached into his pocket and made a call.

"Hey, honey. No, I'm not gonna be able to make it home for a few weeks. No, don't worry Grandma Edith's gonna look after you while I'm gone. All right, love you honey." Clint called to check in on his daughter before hanging up, knowing that she's going to be okay out of town with her grandmother. He wouldn't have let his drunk excuse of a dad near her, but knew Ashley was going to be okay with his mother.

Someone out there knows who funded these Demons and killed his wife and partner, and they're not going to get far.

The Ronin's coming for them.


Norman was currently in his penthouse and walked into his private laboratory where there was a gigantic tank filled with some green water along with a man attached to an oxygen mask.

"We were so close." Norman told the person inside. "But I'll keep trying. I will find a cure." He then places a hand onto the glass with a sad look on his face. "I love you, son."
