That took longer than expected, sorry for the wait.

Right, I saw watched both Crisis on Infinite Earths and Arrow Series finale, and they were both great. I hope the spinoff gets picked up. Mia Queen is an interesting character who has a lot of potential.

Besides that, the month of January was pretty bad, a lot things happened. Including the death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter and the other 8 passengers. May they all Rest in Peace.

Also updates will take time, due to me going back to classes, and this is my last semester, and then I transfer to a University. So my time will be else where.

I own none of the content, and I hope you all enjoy.


Attack on Central City (3)

"Man, I wish Bruce was here, Gamma Radiation is his main study, but he's already interested in other parts of science." Peter said, as he watched Harry fasten the helmet on Joe's head.

Him, Cisco, Harry, Caitlin, and Barry were going to see what they could get from Joe's head. Being the scientist nerd Peter was, he was sorta excited that he was a part of this.

"From what you told me about him, I'm not exactly sure how I feel being near someone who could turn into a radiation monster just by getting miffed. No offense." Cisco said.

Peter waved him off and said, "It's fine, he actually has a good handle on it. He can basically transform at will. It's changing him back is a hassle."

"Again, sounds like what Barry went through. Except he got super speed." Cisco said.

"Well, he seems like an interesting individual. But on another note, West, all you have to do is focus on your memories of Grodd, okay?" Harry said.

"Yeah, that won't be a problem." He said, sounding and looking nervous.

"Look on the bright side, the scientific aspect of all of this is truly interesting. And you get to be the most important part of it." Peter said.

Before Joe could respond, they were interrupted by Jesse.

"Hey, dead man." Jesse said as she walked in.

Peter and the others looked at her, and she didn't look happy.

"Seriously, you told Wally you were dying?" She continued.

Peter raised a brow, but then shook his head in disbelief. Even though he found it sorta amusing.

Harry tried answer by saying, "I didn't say I was, uh… I-I said I didn't know how much time I had left. None of us-"

"Okay, what is wrong with you? Is there anything you won't say to get me stay by your side?"

"I don't-"

"Look whatever. I'm moving here, whether you like it or not." She then looked at Peter and said," And yes, Gwen does know, I did tell her. Besides me, you can help her out when she needs it. Is that ok?"

Peter nodded and said," Yeah, no problem."

"Thank you." She said with a thankful look.

Jesse gave one last look at her dad, and walked out of the room.

Peter snorted and said to Harry," I may not be an expert on kids. But there are better ways to say you don't want your kid to move than that old line."

Harry glared at him and said," I'm still having trouble figuring whether you or Stacy annoy me the most with your attempts at humor sometimes."

Peter didn't take offense to that, but merely shrugged noncommittally, and said to Joe," Just focus on your memories on Grodd, and you'll get a sucker once we're finished."

"Yeah." Joe acknowledged.

"Are you both ready?" Harry asked Peter and Cisco.

"Waiting on you dead man." Cisco said.

"Yep, fire her up."

Joe then looked at Barry and Caitlin and said," Hey, if I start to Grodd out at any point, cut the power off immediately."

"Of course." Caitlin said and Barry nodded as well.

"Ok, Joe, your set up. You ready?" Peter asked.

"Yeah."

"Okay, turn it on." Peter said to Harry.

Harry did so, and once it did, Joe then had a blank look, and didn't react when Barry waved his hand in front of him. Joe then started to draw on the clipboard he had.

"Fascinating." Peter said.

"I didn't know he could draw." Caitlin said.

"Well, that's the thing. Anybody can actually draw. It's just that some have more developed visual cortex and manual ability, as you know. And right now, these magnets are taking that part of his brain and lightin' it up." Cisco explained.

"Just think of it as if the Energizer Bunny is drumming it up in Joe's brain to give it the extra boost… you guys have that here right?"

"I think you may be talking about the Energizer Roadrunner." Cisco said.

Peter nodded, and looked at what Joe was drawing. From what he could tell it was an older, serious looking man, who looked to be wearing a suit.

Joe then stopped, and Harry cut the power.

Barry grabbed the clipboard and said," Well, it worked. Now we have a new problem. We have to figure out who the hell this is."


A couple of hours later, Peter walked into the training room to find Barry speed punching a punching bag, to the point that the sound started to spill out. Iris had told him earlier about Barry's thoughts concerning Grodd. And she knew that Peter was one of the few who could talk to him about what was going on.

"I'm pretty sure Rocky would be proud, and Drago would be quaking in his red boots. Look, I would ask if you're alright, but we can both see you aren't. Iris told me about what you've been thinking. Care to talk to about it?"

Barry nodded and said," You've fought people numerous times, right? And they end up finding new ways to attack or destroy, just like what Grodd is doing now. And I… Iris doesn't think I should, but the only way this ends is if I kill him."

Peter sighed, even though he knew Barry had enough experience as hero, he still had a lot to learn.

"Then you should know that you should listen to women when they give advice. I've only known Iris for a short time, but she's right. Then you would be making the biggest mistake you could make, dude. Killing him isn't going to solve any of this."

"I don't understand."

"Don't kill the giant the gorilla. Plain and simple."

"Peter, you've been in the hero business longer that I have, I get that. But you, and also Frost have killed before."

"Yeah I know, I have to live with it, and so does Caitlin, but the circumstances for us are entirely different. I mean, we had to fend off an alien invasion, which I like to mention, were hell bent on killing us. So our options or choices were limited. But for this, there are multiple ways to end this, you just got to think. You may think Grodd has the upper hand, but you do as well, you just have to think both rationally and out-of-the-box. Basically there's another way."

Peter was glad that Barry was considering his words. And he was going to add more when the PA went on.

"Guys, we need you in the cortex." Cisco said over the PA.

"What up, Cisco?" Barry asked.

"We got a behemoth of a problem."

Peter rolled his eyes as they both walked out of the room and sarcastically said," When isn't there a problem?"


Once they got into the Cortex, Caitlin brought them up to speed on what they found.

"So we ran our John Doe image through every database."

"And it was tough. I mean, the guy's a ghost. We've been calling him Jason Bourne." Cisco said.

"And then H.R noticed something that he brought to my attention." Bette said, and nodded for him to speak.

"Well, at first, it was a real brain-twister, but then I remembered a quote from a renowned poet from my earth, Alfred Yankovic-"

"Are you talking about Weird Al?" Iris asked.

"Why? Cause of the hair?"

"Get to the point already. If you have one." Harry interrupted.

"I can, hard hat. It's his hair. And I ran it by our resident bombshell/military gal, and we knew it was a standard military cut."

"Huh, never been called bombshell before. But once we found that, we checked the Department of Defense's database, and I even called a friend who works there. And as Cisco would say 'yahtzee."

"I would say that." Cisco agreed.

Caitlin brought up the picture of a U.S Military Officer that they got from the database.

"And our search led us to U.S Air Force General Matthew McNally." Bette said, but she had a look.

"First off good work you two. But, I don't like the look you have." Barry said.

"Oh, you shouldn't. Because our experience with luck is so bad, it came back. McNally is in charge of Military Weaponry. And not just any weaponry, but the Nuclear kind. And thanks to his rank and the clearance he has… he can have a rocket in the air in a matter of minutes." She grimly said.

It didn't take a genius to know what that meant, and if Grodd had taken him, then things would be more dire now.

"Uh, just for the record, we are monitoring any launches, right?" Gwen asked.

"We are. Any nuclear weapon that's authorized to fire, an alarm will sound." Harry said.

"Ok, good." Barry said.

Not a second after he said that, an alarm went off.

"And this brings back a déjà vu moment." Peter groaned.

"Short-range ballistic missile has been authorized to fire from Fort Reynolds. It could hit Central City in a manner of minutes." Bette said.

"Huh, I now know how you guys felt during New York." M'gann said.

"Good to hear." Frost grumbled.

"Well, can we stop it from here?" Iris asked.

Bette shrugged and said," I may have been EOD, but nuclear disarmament wasn't something I have experience in. But I do know it has to be a certain type. You'll have to head over to Reynolds and disarm it from its launcher."

"Right got it. Also, I want you two to stay here. If I can't stop it, I need you to get everybody to safety, okay?" Barry said to Wally and Jesse, who nodded.

Barry then started to run to the base.

"I was just fighting regular bad guys and Meta's. Now I'm helping to stop a psychopathic Gorilla who wants to nuke a city. How in the hell did this happen." Gwen muttered.

Peter placed a hand on her shoulder and said," It's going to be ok. I promise."

"Alright, I'm with the missile." Barry said into the comms.

Bette took a breath, remembering her training. She then looked at the schematics of the missile launcher on the screen and said, "Okay, Barry, I'll walk you through this. To access the keypad, remove the panel at the base of the vehicle, it should be on it's right side."

"Got it. What's next?"

"Good, now, this type of missile has a built-in five-digit kill code. The only problem is that we don't know what is. Another good thing is that you can type in as many combinations as you can, so you won't be locked out or cause an accidental activation. That type of security is for the more sophisticated ones. And I should advise you that you should do it now, cause thousands of lives are on the line." Bette calmly said.

"No pressure." M'gann squeaked.

"Five-digits, how many combinations is that?" Wally asked.

"Approximately 90,000." Bette said.

"I thought you said you didn't have any experience with Nukes?" Cisco said.

Bette gave her friend a blank look and," My training covered everything regarding any type of bomb that can be used. People can be crafty, and using codes is one of them."

"Fair enough."

"Two missiles are locked on target." Caitlin said.

"Guys, we need something else. This isn't working." Barry said.

"Plan B, anyone?" Cisco asked, but nobody answered.

"How much time does he have?" Peter asked.

"15 seconds." Caitlin said.

"Where's Tony where you need him." Frost muttered.

Peter gave her a look, with Frost giving him a nervous look and said," Right, sorry, nerves."

"Guys I need something! This isn't working! Something else." Barry frantically said.

"You just got to keep going, Barry. You just have to keep trying." Harry said.

"Six missiles are locked on target." Caitlin said.

"Yeah we can see that, don't need your dang commentary." Gwen said.

There was a few tense seconds, and everyone was getting increasingly worried due to the time. But the silence was broken when Barry finally spoke.

There was few long seconds, and then Barry said," It worked. It worked! We did it!" He said in disbelief.

Everyone felt the tension in the room subside, and they all let out relieved breaths. It was also cutting it close due to them having a couple seconds to spare.

"Nice work, bombshell." HR said as he patted her on the back.

"Yeah, good to know I still got it." Bette said with a relieved smile.

No one was more relieved than Peter, due to his arms almost losing circulation due to both Frost and Gwen holding on to him for dear life.

"Told you it was going to be ok." Peter said to Gwen, who numbly nodded.


After the big scare, they started to scan the city for any signs of the Gorillas. Cisco then found a lot of blips approaching from the outskirts of the city.

"Found them. They're right outside the city." He said.

"Heading for State and Oakhill, fast." Caitlin said.

"Which leads right into downtown." Iris added.

"All right, so what do we do?" Jesse asked.

"Barry, I know the three of us are Speedsters, and we have backup, but I still think we're outnumbered here." Wally said.

"I could try to call everyone my Earth again, but even I know that might take time." Peter said.

"Then how are we going to take on all of those Gorillas?" Jesse said.

"We have to." Barry said.

"As much as I hate these gorillas, especially Grodd, if you kill him, the other ones might stand down, but you might not be able to come back from this, Barry. You know this right?" Joe said.

"I know. But there's another way." Barry said and looked at Peter when he said that.

"Good call. What's the plan, fearless leader?" Peter said.

"We hold off the Gorillas as long as we can. While Cisco helps with something that can help stop this."

"That reminds me. I finished your suit." Cisco said to Frost. "Gotta fight some apes in style. And I also need your uniform as well later, I need to add some flare as well." He said the last part to Bette, who nodded.


Later, Barry, Jesse, Wally, Frost, Peter, and Gwen walked down a deserted street, where the gorillas were going to be at. Thankfully, Joe had alerted CCPD and they had cleared anyone out. While M'gann and Bette were on the rooftop, overlooking everything.

Frost had on her new suit. It was her same shield uniform, but had more blue highlights on it, a five point snowflake on her chest, with the bottom one going down to where her stomach stopped. The shirt part had black on the inside, and light blue on the inside. (Just picture it as a shield uniform, but has the same look as Killer Frost's costume from Season 6)

The reason M'gann and Bette were up there, because if any gorillas tried to get out of the designated area, they either be psychically pushed or faced with a small explosion in front of them.

"I am loving the new suit." Peter said.

"Yeah, Ramon did a good job." KF said.

"Wells, how long do we have?"

"Two minutes, Barry." HR said.

"Two minutes? Ten second!" Harry said.

{By the way, the link is set up if you guys want to talk covertly.} M'gann said.

{Ok, this is pretty trippy and cool at the same time.} Gwen said.

{It is, but let's stick with regular talking if you don't mind.} Barry said.

"So, got any pointers on how the eight of us are gonna save everyone and stop a few hundred gorillas?" Wally asked.

"Yeah, I would like to know too." Gwen said.

"Well, remember how I told you guys about the Battle of New York? It's different, but still has the same principle. Also, use your webs to take their weapons and shields. And use your agility and Spider Sense to dodge and punch." Peter said.

"Right, got it." Gwen said.

"To add to that. Go for the legs I guess. And try not to get caught, 'cause, trust me, they won't let go." Barry said.

Peter remembered how Solovar did that to him and Barry and said," Yeah, it's not fun. Plastique, fire a couple of warning shots. We'll use the distraction to attack them."

"Got it."

Bette fired a couple of rounds near the gorillas, and once they all backed up once the tiny explosions went off.

"Here we go." KF said as she made a ice walkway and surfed towards the gorillas, while Jesse and Wally sped, and Gwen used her webs to swing. Peter and Barry stood their ground as they waited for Grodd.

KF fired a little bit of mist to confuse the gorillas, and both Wally and Jesse sped around them, punching and kicking them. Gwen and KF used their fists, webs, and ice to attack.

While they fought the army, Grodd was already charging at Peter and Barry.

"Gorilla fight. Round 2." Peter muttered.

Barry sped at Grodd, but Grodd managed to whack him with his shield, and he hit a side of a taxi. Peter sprinted, fired a web at Grodd's face, and did a flying kick at his face.

M'gann surveyed the fight from above and got an idea.

"Got anything small?"

Bette nodded, and took out some marbles. She used her powers to coat them, and M'gann levitated them, and fired at them at the gorillas. Some of the gorillas were momentarily stunned. Gwen fired a web at one of their shields, and used her strength to get it out of it's hand, and make it hit the one next to it, knocking it to the ground. Gwen then punched the one she got the shield from. Wally and Jesse used their speed to make quick punches. KF fired mist into their eyes, and then created a small ice club to hit them.

Peter dodged, and punched Grodd. Barry soon got up and did the same thing as Wally and Jesse.

Peter got to the side, used his comms and said," Any word on Cisco?"

"He and Gypsy will arrive soon." Caitlin said.

Peter then saw Gwen get hit to the side, and hit a wall. He then swung to her and caught her before a Gorilla could stab her. He set her down nearby and said.

"You alright?"

"Yeah, just a little dazed."

"Then stop being dazed, and keep fighting. I heard that Cisco is almost here." Frost said nearby.

"Heh, speak of the devil." Gwen said as she saw a portal open, and both Cisco and Gypsy came out.

A split second later, Solovar also appeared. This caused the Gorilla's to stop fighting, and wait to see what would happen.

"Let's hope this works." Peter said.

"I can't believe I didn't bring my phone. This is something worth recording." Gwen lamented.

The fight between Solovar and Grodd started. The fight only lasted for what seemed like a minute, due to Solovar having the upper hand. They had even fought on top of a building, and Grodd ending up crashing into the street. Solovar followed suit, and then knocked him out, and roared in triumph.

The other gorillas kneeled as they found themselves under Solovar's leadership again. Solovar was about to do the finishing blow, but Barry stopped him.

"Death isn't the way."

"He betrayed me." Solovar said.

"I know, so leave him here, where he's from. We won't let him go back to Gorilla City ever again. Just spare his life like we did yours."

Solovar looked to be thinking about it, nodded and said," Send us home, all of us."


It took the rest of the day, but they got all the Gorilla's back on Earth 2. Once they did, the Speeders sped everyone back to the Cortex.

"All of the gorillas are back on Earth-2." Barry said.

"Yeah, and don't say any joke that has to do with monkey business." Cisco warned Peter.

Peter shrugged and said," I didn't say anything."

"And Grodd?" Caitlin asked.

"I called Lyla. He's with ARGUS." Barry said.

"Good. I don't know about y'all, but I don't ever need to see a super-smart, telepathic gorilla again." Joe said.

"Speak for yourself. I live on the same Earth that they live in. I'm just glad they live half way around the world." Gwen pointed out.

"Not that Grodd had some justification for mistrusting humans." Barry said.

"Whatever good in Grodd is gone. As far as I'm concerned, they can throw him in the same cage as King Shark." Caitlin admitted.

"I'd pay money see that fight." Cisco said.

"King Shark?" Peter asked.

"Person who turned into a giant shark man from Earth-2." Cisco summarized.

"Well, that isn't terrifying at all." Frost sarcastically said.

"All right, well, if the city doesn't need my help anymore. I'm gonna head back to Earth-19." Gypsy said.

She was about to leave, but Cisco stopped her and said.

"Oh really. So you did all this for the city, huh? Cause I'm pretty sure there's a different reason you chose to help us." Cisco countered.

"That's right; I was the only one who knew where Solovar was."

"Oh, right, yeah. How could I forget? Don't front. You're into me." Cisco said with a grin.

"Look, Cisco, I mean, even if I was…" Gypsy first said, and then kissed him.

Everyone shared various looks of shock and amusement. Peter blinked, and shared an amused look with Frost.

"You couldn't handle me." She said. "Bye guys." She said as she walked out of the room.

"Wow, you sure got some game." Gwen said, both stunned and impressed.

M'gann nodded and said," The nerdy types seem to find themselves someone nowadays."

Cisco stood there for a moment and said," I'll marry that woman. Yeah."

"Don't think too ahead. Romeo." Bette teased as she patted him on the shoulder.


Later, Harry and Gwen were heading home. While Harry was giving Wally a talk, Peter was talking to Gwen.

"So, if you ever need any help at all, you know that I'm always open. Gotta help out our fellow spider themed heroes."

"Yeah." Gwen said, and then hugged him, and Peter did the same.

"Thanks for everything, you helped me out a ton."

And she meant that, this version of Peter made her feel better about her past, and also gave her great tips and advice with being a hero. He even helped her get some weight off of her shoulders. He was definitely someone one can look up too.

"No problem. Also, even though I never knew your Peter. But I do know that he would be very proud of you."

Gwen gave him a slight watery smile and said," Yeah, I think so too. I'll see you around, Pete."

Both she and Harry went through the portal to go back to Earth-2, and it closed once they did.


Peter was later back on Earth-38. He and the others decided to spend some time on their Earth, before heading back to Earth-1. After Peter had taken a long nap, he had decided to do some patrolling. He was relieved that Tony and some of the X-Men had agreed to watch over the city while he was gone.

He was sitting on a ledge, when he heard someone scream.

"A daylight mugging. Rare, but can be handled." He said.

"I would suggest using a Web Grenade." Karen said.

He swung to where he heard the scream. He saw two guys cornering a girl, and he wasted no time in webbing them up, and securing them for the police to find them.

"You alright?" He asked.

The girl, who was a teenager who had dirty blonde hair, and looked slightly familiar, nodded, and said," Yeah, thanks for the save. I possibly could've handled myself. I have Pepper Spray and a Taser. I guess having a worrisome dad helps. He's actually a supporter of you."

Peter raised a brow and said," Oh really, what's his name?"

"George Stacy, he's a Police Captain. I'm his daughter, Gwen Stacy."

Peter was glad that he was wearing a mask, or else this version of Gwen would've seen his mouth drop.

'Huh, what are the odds of that.' Peter mentally quipped.


Yep, I got another doppelganger introduced. And I hoped you all liked this episode chapters. I wanted to give Bette a moment to shine because I knew something like the Nuke would be right up her alley.

Earth-38 Gwen Stacey looks like Kiernan Shipka. I'm not sure yet with what I will do with her. But I do plan on having her appear again soon.

Till next time.
