Issue 3: Legends of the Hero-Spider

Ylisstol

BGM-Fire Emblem Awakening OST-"It appears the capital was spared the chaos"

Not having to worry about sinister zombies from out of nowhere or giant earthquakes, the grouped-up heroes from different worlds have finally arrived at the capital city of the country, Ylisstol, home to the exalt of the land.

"Hey! We made it, guys!" Ruby said, ahead of the group. They find themselves standing beside hundreds of the happy people living in this large city.

"So this is Ylisstol, capital of Ylisse. Such a beautiful place." Tails complimented the gorgeous city, with Sonic whistling.

"I've never seen so many people!" Robin said, almost feeling crowded with the amount of people on the streets.

"Then you should visit New York sometimes." Peter said to the amnesiac magician.

"It appears the capital was spared the chaos we encountered, thank the gods. I see no evidence of the great quake. It must've been limited to the forest." Frederick said, sighing himself in relief the city wasn't harmed during the quake last night.

"That's a relief." Yang said.

"Look! The exalt has come to see us!" An old village said, directing everyone in the area to the lovely exalted lady of the land passing by her people while constantly being guarded by her guards.

"So that's the exalt lady?" Knuckles asked Frederick.

"Yes. Her name is Lady Emmeryn, remember?" He replied to those curious.

"Wow. She's so beautiful," Weiss complimented the ruler of Ylisse of her beauty, "But is it really safe for her to walk among the people like this?" The curious heiress wondered.

"The exalt is a symbol of peace—Ylisse's most prized quality," Freddy starts giving a briefing about the exalt and their importance to the country, "Long ago, at the dawn of our age, the fell dragon tried to destroy the world. But the first exalt joined forces with the divine dragon and the divine spider from another world and laid the beast low. Exalt Emmeryn reminds us all of the peace we fought for then." He told them.

"The fell dragon? You fought a dragon, Ero?" Spidey asked his Other, just as it materializes in spirit form.

"Among us totems, we refer to him as the "Fell Totem," a being, pure of darkness, that could prove to be the greatest of all evils in existence," Ero then chuckled, "But that doesn't mean they're the strongest. I fought that weakling prey twice before, both times he only proved to be annoyingly stubborn. I don't mind kicking his tail again and again for the rest of time." He boasted.

"Whatever. Just don't drag me into it. Last thing I want to do is get involved in a thousand-year rivalry." Spidey told him, not in any mood to fight a world-ending dragon.

"Three-thousand, you mean." Ero corrected his host, causing the teenager to groan.

"With Plegia poking at our borders, the people need someone like you and Emmeryn," Chrom said to the hero-spider, "She's a calming presence, when some might otherwise call for war."

"Then you guys are pretty lucky I'm on vacation." Peter boasted, pointing to himself.

"I dunno. Your luck usually leads to world-ending trouble." Weiss smirkingly joked to the unamused wall-crawler.

"Oh, c'mon. My luck's not THAT bad." Peter protested.

"I've kept a list." The heiress shows him her Scroll filled with entries about all the times the Parker Luck almost brought about the end of the world.

"Why'd you have a list?!"

"Emmeryn's also the best big sister anyone could ask for!" Lissa said to get everyone back to the original topic.

"Yeah, I can imagine…" Ruby and her team smiled, only for it to last a second, immediately replaced with a stunned look on their face after they processed what Lissa just said. "Wait, what?" She said with a confused face.

"Wait! She's your…But wouldn't that make you and Chrom…" Robin is also greatly confused, slowly piecing the puzzle together they're…

"The prince and princess of the realm, yes," Frederick chuckled, "You remember Chrom's name and not this?"

"But that doesn't make sense! We thought you were shepherds!" Sonic said.

"And so we are…in a manner of speaking. We just have a LOT of sheep." Chrom replied to the confused anthropomorphic hedgehog.

"Pretty crowded sheep you ask me." Yang joked.

"C-Chrom…I mean, Prince Chrom! Sire! Forgive my dreadful manners!" Robin and the respectful Weiss both bow down to the prince of the land.

"I doubt that's necessary, guys." Spidey said.

"Chrom is just fine. I've never been much for formalities." Prince Chrom told them.

"Oh, okay. Whatever you say, Prince- I mean, Chrom." Weiss said.

"The prince and princess... That explains why Frederick tolerates all the teasing, eh?" Robin asked.

"Indeed. Oh, the sacrifices I make for the good of the realm…" The knight sighed.

"And since we're friends with the prince, we can also tease you freely, right?" Peter asked Freddy.

"No."

"That's not gonna stop me."

"It looks like Emm is returning to the palace. Would you like to meet her?" Chrom asked the Avengers.

"Yes, sir!" Ruby gleefully saluted to the prince.

BGM End


Ylisstol's Sacred Palace

The united warriors follow Chrom inside the royal palace to meet with his older ruling sister of the country. "Chrom! Lissa! Welcome home. Oh, and good day, Frederick. How fared you all?" Exalt Emmeryn asked her family with a soft, kind voice that could calm the heartless of monsters.

"Well, we shouldn't have any bandit problems for a while." Chrom told her sister.

"Wonderful. And our people?" Emmeryn asked.

"Safe as they can be, Emm. But we still need to watch the borders. The brigands crossed over from Plegia." Chrom advised.

"Forgive me, milord. My pegasus knights should have intercepted them." The leader of the pegasus knight, Phila, spoke up to the prince.

"No, Phila. Your duty was here, with the exalt." Chrom assured her.

"And besides, we had plenty of help!" Lissa smiled, gesturing the exalt to Spider-Man and friends.

"Sup." Spidey casually greeted the exalt with a hand-wave.

"Ah, does my eyes deceive me? You're the Legendary Spider-Man from another world, bonded with the divine spider warrior that worked together with the first exalt so long ago. It's a pleasure to finally meet such a brave hero." Emm warmly smiled to the heroic teenager of New York.

"Ah, stop it, you're making me blush." Spidey said, shamefully scratching the top of his head.

"These are his friends, the D-Avengers, and this is Robin, who we found out in the field," Chrom gestured his palm to his new friends, who all are polite enough to greet the queen with a nod, "They fought bravely with us against the brigands. They have proven to be worthy allies, as well as Robin, who've I decided to make him a Shepherd."

"It sounds as though Ylisse owes you a debt of gratitude, Avengers, as well as you, Robin." Emm smiled.

"You're welcome, milady!" Blake said.

"Forgive me, Your Grace, but I must speak." Frederick spoke up.

'And here we go.' Sonic tiredly glared at the wary knight, already suspecting what he's about to say.

"Robin claims to have lost his memory, but it is only that: a claim. We cannot rule out the possibility that he is a brigand himself or even a Plegian spy." The stubborn knight continued.

"Are you still going on about that?" Yang asked.

"Yet you allowed him into the castle, Chrom. Does this man have your trust?" Emm asked, looking a bit worried.

"Yes. He risked his life for our people. That's good enough for me." Chrom answered her sister.

"'Sides, if he was a spy, my spider-sense would've told me somethin' was up. He's good in my book." Spidey vouched for Robin as well.

"Well then, Robin…It seems you've earned Chrom's faith and Spider-Man's trust, and as such you have mine as well." Emm smiled, happy to meet a good man that can be trusted.

"Milady." Robin spoke.

"But thank you, Frederick, for your prudence, as always. Chrom and Lissa are blessed to have so tireless a guardian. I do hope they remember to mention that from time to time..." Emm thanked her trusty guardian for being careful as usual.

"Do you?" Ruby whispered to Lissa, smirking.

She chuckled, "Not really."

"They occasionally express something akin to gratitude, Your Grace," Fred said before turning to Phila, "Phila, I assume you've heard about the deathly creatures we encountered, yes?"

"Yes, milord. They've been sighted all across Ylisse." She replied.

"That's gonna be a problem. Have you also encountered any weird gemstones lying about?" Sonic asked the pegasus knight.

"Not to my knowledge, no," Phila answered the blue hedgehog, not knowing the current location of the Chaos Emeralds that were accidently scattered across this world, "Should that be a problem?"

"You have no idea." Sonic replied.

"Chrom, we are about to hold council. I was hoping you could join us." Emmeryn requested Chrom to join her to discuss recent events.

"Of course." He politely nodded.

"I think that's our cue, guys! C'mon, there's a place I want to show you." Lissa gestures her friends to follow her out of the throne room so she could show them something.

"It better be a bathroom." Peter joked, following her.


Castle Barricade

BGM-Fire Emblem Awakening OST- "Here we are! The shepherd's garrison"

Lissa leads the Avengers and Robin to the castle's barricade to meet up with other members of the Shepherds: The clumsy Sumia, thick-headed Vaike, and the noblewoman Maribelle. They turn to see Lissa walk in with her new buddies.

"Here we are! The Shepherds' garrison. Go on, Make yourself at home." Lissa told them.

"It's no Avengers Mansion, but I like it." Spidey commented as they look around the area.

"Lissa, my treasure! Are you all right? I've been on pins and needles!" Maribelle said, extremely worried about her delicate friend to the point of running up to the princess.

"Oh, hey, Maribelle!" Lissa casually said.

""Oh hey" yourself! I've sprouted 14 grey hairs fretting over you!" The worried woman said.

"Yeah, I can see them from here." Spidey joked, earning an annoyed growled from the noblelady.

"Don't mock me, cow! Who are you?" Maribelle asked Peter.

"I'm-."

"Stop! I already don't like you." She interrupted the webhead before he could let out a simple sentence.

"Oh god save us all, it's another Weiss." Spidey joked about how Weiss and Maribelle act almost alike, getting a small chuckle from everyone else but the irritated heiress of Remnant.

"Shut up, web-for-brains!" Weiss angrily told the spider.

"Hey, squirt! Where's Chrom? I bet he had a rough time out there without ol' Teach and his trusty axe!" Vaike said, greeting himself to the others.

"Oh, so you're "Teach" now, Vaike, is that it? Hee hee! And here I thought people were just born lacking wits. It can be taught?" Lissa said.

"Ha! Never doubt the Vaike! ...Wait, was that an insult?" He questioned himself.

"Oh, this poor soul reminds me of Knuckles." Tails said, smugingly, knowing how slow Knuckles' mind can be sometimes.

"I heard that, Tails!" Knuckles shouted, with Sonic laughing at his friend's expense.

"Beg pardon, but when might we see the captain?" Sumia asked, worried about Chrom.

"Poor Sumia. She's simply been beside herself with concern…Her eyes were scanning the horizon all day during training. ...She might have earned fewer bruises fighting blindfolded." Maribelle said.

"Awww. That's so sweet about how you worry about Chrom." Yang said, seeing that as precious.

"Worry? Well, I... He's our captain and our prince- of course I'd worry!" Sumia said, embarrassed.

"So, who's the strangers with the weird clothes?" Vaike asked about Lissa's new friends.

"No one's stranger than you Vaike…But allow me to introduce the D-Avengers and Robin! They're helping us out. Chrom's made Robin our new tactician, and I'm sure you all recognize Spider-Man from the old stories. You should see all the tricks they got on their sleeves!" Lissa introduced her friends to everyone else.

"Oh yeah? Can they do this?" Vaike let out a large burp, much to the amusement of everyone else but Blake and Weiss, who thinks that's immature, and are constantly wondering why that's so funny.

"I'm sure I have much to learn in the belching arts, "Teach." In any case, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintances." Robin said with a nice smile.

"Ugh, Vaike! That was abhorrent! Must you baseborn oafs pollute even the air with your buffoonery? And you, fools! Don't encourage him! I'd hope you were cut from finer cloth. Hmph!" Maribelle said, so disgusted by their antics to the point of leaving the room.

"Don't take it to heart, guys. Maribelle warms to people slowly." Sumia assured them.

"We're kinda used to that. We're friends with Weiss, after all." Ruby joked.

"I hate you. I hate all of you." Weiss responded to her unfunny joke.

They all see Chrom walk into the barricade, getting Sumia worked up and flustered. "Ah! Captain! You've returned! I was-I mean, we were so-." As she walks over to the captain, she accidently trips on some papers. She managed to get up, dusting herself off.

"Hey! Are you all right?" Tails asked in concern.

"Is it those boots of yours again?" Chrom asked, worried about his friend.

"No! I mean, yes! I mean…" Sumia sighed.

"Hey. Take it easy. One word at a time," Spidey calmed her, then turning to the blue-haired prince, "So, Chromster, what's going on?"

"Listen, everyone: in the morning, we'll be marching to Regna Ferox." He said.

"The what?" Sonic asked, confused.

"Regna Ferox. A unified kingdom to Ylisse's north inhabited by barbarians, or so it's said." Suma explained to the confused.

"Why?" Blake asked Chrom.

"We need their warriors to quell this new menace," Chrom answered the faunus, "Typically, the exalt would request such aid in person. But given recent events…Well, the people might worry should my sister suddenly leave the capital. So the task has been passed to us. Now, this mission is strictly voluntary. So if, for any-."

"I volunteer!" Lissa quickly raised her hand.

"Me too! You'll be needin' ol' Teach along for such a delicate mission!" Vaike agreed to join.

"And I don't think you need to ask us." Spidey said, with his team joining in on this mission.

"I'll go as well. ...What? I've been here the whole time," said the other knight of the Shepherds, Kellam, who has been actually standing right in the same room as everyone else, but for some reason nobody seems to have noticed him.

"I…I, um…" Sumia nervously twiddles her thumbs repeatedly, having no idea what to say next.

"Yes, Sumia?" Chrom responded.

"It's just that…I'm not sure I'm quite ready for a proper mission just yet. I'd probably just get in the way." Suma admitted.

"Well, you could stay behind the main group, and if a battle is met, just watch and learn? Your choice, of course. But some lessons can only be learned on the battlefield." Chrom suggested.

"W-well, if you think it wise, Captain." Sumia said.

"Just stay by me and you'll be fine." Chrom smiled.

"Oh, yes! I mean- Yes, sir, I'll do that!" Sumia happily nodded.

"I see where this is goin'." Yang smirked, thinking those two would make a perfect couple.

"Would you give it a rest?" Blake asked the blond.

"Spider-Man, if you have time, I want to show you something." Chrom said to the inter-dimensional wall-crawler.

"Hmm?"

"You've been curious about how much we know about you. Me and Emm has something to show you if you follow me." Chrom said.

"Sure, why not. There better be snacks." Spidey shrugged, along with Blake, Robin and Tails joining him, as everyone else feels like exploring the castle a bit more before hitting the hay for the day.

BGM End


Ancient Chamber

BGM-Sonic Adventure OST-Theme of Tikal

Chrom leads Spidey and those accompanying him to a sacred room covered with spider-like markings and small murals located at the bottom of the castle, where the exalt Emmeryn is waiting for them, standing in front of a large mural that illustrates the grand battle between the fell dragon and another mystery man against the Other, the first exalt, and the divine dragon, Naga.

"Welcome, Spider-Man, to the Chamber of the Spider." Emm introduced Peter to this ancient chamber of old.

"Chamber of the Spider?" Spidey repeated as Ero shows himself.

"What is this about?" The Spider-Deity asked, having no idea about this place.

"One-thousand years ago, the first exalt and the divine dragon, Naga, formed this chamber in your name, Other, after you helped them defeat the fell dragon. This sanctuary was created in your honor, as well as for your destined host." Emm explained.

"Who are these people in the murals?" Robin asked, pointing to a couple of murals that depict Spider-Man fighting a different villain, like one having the appearance of a lizard and the other looking like a human lightning bolt.

"Hey. I recognize some of these fellas. Rhino. Lizard. Scorpion. It's my entire rouges gallery, showing all the times I beat them." Spidey said.

"Peter. Look at this." Blake shows the human-arachnid a huge mural showcasing Spidey in golden spider-armor, which is actually his "Sacred Spider-King" Armor mode, fighting what appears to be a giant goblin monster.

"Hey, that's Goblin. Back when he almost destroyed the entire multiverse." Spidey recognized his arch-nemesis, remembering the destructive Goblin War that almost destroyed all of reality a few months ago.

"In legends, we refer to him as the Demon King, the terror of realms. The entire world saw glimpses of this chaotic battle in the sky 500 years ago." Chrom said, remembering the stories about how the sky fell and hearing about the people of that era observing a great battle between a spider-warrior and a demon.

"500 years ago? To us, that was during the spring. It wasn't that long ago." Spidey said, seeing how for him, the battle against Goblin ended a few months ago.

"Space and time was unraveling during that fight, so it does make sense how it happened centuries ago here but not for us." Tails guessed.

"When Lady Naga observed the battle, she knew it was the Other working together with the destined Spider that saved our worlds," Emm continued with her story, "When two distant souls form a true unison, the legendary miraculous power is born. On that day, the Exalted Weaver was born. The Legendary Hero-Spider."

"Exalted Weaver?" Robin repeated in awe.

"Sounds cooler than 'Sacred Spider-King.' I always thought that was a mouthful." Spidey commented.

"Naga took her time to observe you, Spider-Man, passing down all your greatest achievements as stories for this world to cherish for many centuries." The exalt said.

"Naga really got to stop poking her nose at other people's business. Still wondering why she bothered calling us here." The irritated Other said.

"Wait. Lady Naga was the one that brought us here?" Blake asked, a little surprised that the divine dragon was the one that summoned them to this world.

"From what I sensed, yes. Don't know why though, and frantically I'm not in the mood to care." Ero stoically replied to the faunus, folding his multiple arms.

Then, Chrom walks over to Spidey, handing him ancient Lord-class armor that takes inspiration from the Hero-King Marth's armor with the characteristics of a classic red-and-blue Spider-Man costume that has a silky cape made of webbing (Think of the armor as a medieval version of the TV Show, Spider-Man Unlimited's costume with the cape).

"Is this my birthday present?" Spidey joked, holding the armor.

"This is armor weaved by Naga herself in case the Hero-Spider walked on these lands again," Chrom said, then proceeds to take out a golden pendant that marks a spider, "And this is the Pendant of the Spider, bathed in the holy blood of the divine dragon herself. It will only respond to you. Keep it safe." The prince hands Peter the pendant, allowing him to wear it around his neck.

"I'm not liking how Naga is handing gifts to my other." Ero said, annoyed.

"Jealous?" Spidey smirked at his inner spider, receiving a simple grunt in return.

BGM End


The Next Morning

Sporting his new "Spider-Lord" suit, Spider-Man and his many friends and allies are standing on a field outside the city. "Is everyone ready? We've a long march ahead." Chrom asked his allies, but it would seem they're all ready for the trek ahead.

"Yup. We're ready. Let's go." Ruby said.

"W-Wait for me!" A knight with messy olive-colored hair runs up to the group as if he just woke up from a nap.

"Stahl?" Chrom recognized his fellow Shepherd.

"Why am I the last to hear about this expedition to Ferox?" Stahl questioned.

"Huh? Vaike was supposed to... Vaike! Did you forget to tell Stahl about our mission?" Lissa turned to the forgetful Shepherd.

"The Vaike never forgets! ...I just don't always remember, is all..." He replied.

"Ugh. You're hopeless, just like when Lissa told me you forgot your axe." Knuckles said with an unamused face.

"Hey! That was one time! ...Okay, twice, but training sessions don't count. Anyway, I got it right here. Teach is loaded and ready for action! Glad to have you along, Stahl, ol' buddy." Vaike said.

"That makes one of us. I was in such a hurry, I had to miss breakfast! There were muffins, and cakes, and... Well, I can tell you all about it while we march…" Stahl said.

"So this guy's Stahl?" Spidey turned to Chrom with his question.

"Yes. Stahl here is one of our finest." Milord replied.

"Hello, Spider-Man. Miriel told me we had some new help." Stahl said, shaking hands with Peter.

"Who's Miriel?" Robin asked the gentle knight.

"Er, Miriel's one of our mages. She should catch up soon." Stahl replied.

"Then, c'mon, let's get a move on!" Sonic grinned as they begin their trek to Ferox.


BGM-Fire Emblem Awakening OST-"Gods, have the Risen spread this far?"

The heroes' journey across the open fields was a smooth one, passing by numerous natural life that prompts Peter to take a picture with his camera, much to the confusion of his Shepherd friends, who have no idea what technology is, much less a camera, but it wasn't until long their journey was interrupted by the arrival of those mysterious zombies from before, causing a ruckus on the open natural life.

"Gods, have the Risen spread this far?" Chrom asked, irritated by their arrival.

""Risen"?" Tails questioned the new name for these creatures.

"We needed a name for this new threat, so the council gave them one." Frederick responded.

"What? Was zombies too boring?" Yang joked.

"Everyone, remember what we're up against!" Chrom told everyone while taking out his sword the Falchion.

"Dude, they're zombies. They don't really amount to much. Just one of us could beat them." Spidey quipped.

"Mya ha! They're remember ME once I drive my axe into their…Wait…My axe. Where's my axe?! I had it a second ago!" Vaike said, searching frantically for his signature axe all over his body but couldn't find it.

"Vaike, this is no time for jokes…" Chrom told him.

"I'm serious! It's gone, but I JUST had it! It's got to be around here somewhere..." Vaike said.

"Leave them to us, Vaike. Just sit back and enjoy the show." Knuckles said, racing with his allies to battle against the Risen.

BGM-Spider-Man Unlimited Game OST-Gameplay

The Legendary Spider-Man is the first to fight, launching the pathetic Risen into the air with a mighty spin-kick, bouncing off the ground enemies with multiple web-strikes before the airborne enemies receive a spider-sting to the face, destroying them.

"Yo! Ruby! Stahl! On your left!" Spidey warned the two of incoming zombies.

"Ride on!" Ruby responded, twirling her scythe in the air, transforming it to a gun to shoot them down alongside Stahl, who strikes down his prey with sword.

Close by, Vaike is running away from sword-wielding Risen since he forgot to bring his axe. He trips on a branch, but before his head was sliced off, the zombie was burned to death by someone possessing fire magic.

"Splendid! It seems I've caught up."

Vaike stands up to see the studious mage of the Shepherds, Miriel, have finally arrived to the battlefield, holding his iron axe.

"Whoa! My axe!" Vaike said, happy to see his axe again.

"I wondered what manner of ignoramus would mislay their weapon. Now I know." Miriel said, fixing her glasses.

"Thanks, Miriel! Er, for the axe anyway!" Vaike sheepishly grinned, but kindly takes his axe from her hands.

"Perhaps next time I'll use a spell to fasten it to you hands…permanently." Miriel stoically threatened the man.

'Aye-aye-aye. She's like this world version of Professor Goodwitch.' Yang sweatdropped since she wasn't far to hear their conversation. She quickly shrugs it off and joins them, and Knuckles to dish out more pain on the Risen.

The cocky blue blur zooms through the battlefield with his astonishing speed, plowing through so many Risen at once it's not event funny. As he runs, Sonic approaches the Risen Chief of this squadron, but he isn't worried, moreso the opposite. He grins confidently, and before the chief could lay down his weapon on top of his head, Sonic effortlessly swerves aside it, making a taunting face before unleashing a blue of punches and spin attacks all around him, then kicks him away.

"Gonna have to try harder than that!" Sonic taunted. He allowed Weiss and Sully to have a stab on the undead chief, getting pierced through the chest by the brash Shepherd's lance before it gets gobbled up by Weiss' King Taijitu summon.

"Nice one, kid!" Sully complimented the icy Huntress.

The battle is almost over, so the heroes decided to finish this fight off with one more special attack. Robin activates a new wind magic, and combined with Sonic's natural wind, encompasses Spider-Man in an enormous hurricane so he could scatter his magnificent webbing all across the field splat on the remaining Risen, making them easy pickings.

"That was a breeze!" Spidey punned, making Robin to laugh at his joke while they fist bump, not noticing that hurricane webbing did get on the hairs and bodies of some of their own teammates as well, much to the irritation of Yang, who pummels the three doofuses who messed up her hair.

BGM End

After the battle with the Risen, the team decided to take a little break on the field before heading out again. In the meantime, Chrom, Spider-Man, Robin, Weiss, Lissa, and Knuckles decided to have a little walk by themselves until they notice something.

"Well, what do we have here?" Robin asked when they stopped.

"Hey, is that what I think it is?" Lissa wondered.

"A pegasus?" Weiss said when they walked up to the lonely pegasus on the field.

"It's a pegasus, all right. I think it's hurt. Let's just have a look here..." Chrom walks up to the weakened pegasus to check on it, but was almost blown away when it scarily sprang its kicks on him. "WHOA! Down, girl! Easy there!"

"Let me try! I'm good with smooth-talking to animals." Peter said, not hearing the small snicker from Weiss next to him. The heroic spider kindly kneels down in front of the flying horse. "So, how're you doing?" He asked, only to get kicked hard in the chest, flinged back 10 feet. "OW! That hurt! That horse has the legs of Chun-Li!" He said, attending to his chest wound.

BGM-Fire Emblem Awakening OST-"Shh…Easy now, girl. I won't hurt you"

"Captain, one moment!" Sumia walks into the scene and immediately trips, getting back up again and dusting herself off.

"Sumia! Are you all right? ...Those boots of yours again?" Chrom asked in concern.

"No! I mean, Yes! I mean…" Sumia sighed.

"Sumia, don't get any closer. That thing is crazy and almost killed me!" Spidey warned her.

"It's okay, Spider-Man. I can handle this…" The gentle woman walks over to the wounded animal, kindly petting her face, which seems to have calmed it down. "Shhh…Easy now, girl. I won't hurt you."

"How did she calm it so quickly?" Robin asked in amazement.

"That's incredible, Sumia!" Lissa said, jumped up.

"Oh, c'mon! That's what I was trying to do!" Spidey said.

"No you weren't!" Weiss argued.

"In my own way, I was!" Spidey retorted.

"Spidey, just stop embarrassing yourself." Knuckles spoke up.

"I've never seen anything like it." Chrom said, in total awe of Sumia's unique ability to calm animals.

"Oh, it's...it's nothing. Really. I just have a way with animals, I guess." Sumia said.

"I should say so!" Chrom smiled, impressed by her more than ever before.

As she continues petting the gentle beast, Sumia notices it's trying to give her something underneath its belly, a mysterious green emerald as an act of kindness. "Oh my! It's beautiful!" Sumia said, holding onto gorgeous little gem.

"Hey, that's…a Chaos Emerald!" Knuckles said in surprise, just like with Spidey and Weiss.

"That's a Chaos Emerald?" Robin asked the guardian echidna.

"No doubt about it! I knew I was sensing something close by. It was a Chaos Emerald all along." Knuckles said.

Sumia hands the emerald to Spider-Man. "Good. Six more to go." The Spider said while holding the gem.

"Such incredible energy, it's filling the air. I can practically smell it. The gems I know of don't COMPARE to these ones." Chrom said.

"Yeah, they're dangerous, especially in the wrong hands if one gathers all seven." Weiss told him.

"Indeed. I can't dare to imagine if the Plegian got their hands on them. They could start a war." Chrom said, a bit nervous in the face.

"Knowing our luck, they probably have at least one right now. We should keep moving." Spidey suggested, fearing the enemy kingdom already has a Chaos Emerald with them, causing all sorts of trouble.

"You all go ahead. I'll dress her wounds and catch up as soon as we're able." Sumia suggested, wanting to help out her new animal friend a little longer.

"We can make time to wait for you." Chrom told her.

"Thank you, Captain. But I can manage. You heard what Spider-Man said. Every moment is precious when all of Ylisse is in danger." Sumia told him.

"Right, then. Be safe, Sumia." Chrom said.

"As you command, sir." She replied with a warm smile, which makes him smile in response.

Prime Earth

"So this is where it all began. The ones that recently created those new spider-totems then suddenly disappeared," said a mystery man wearing a classy attire, standing on a cliff in front of a forest, staring down at a medieval city below him, looking down at a crimson-dressed woman walking around a large castle. The man smiled, "Finally. Now, we can begin the hunt." He, known to most people as "The Lion", or what he prefers, "The Devourer of Totems." His name is Morlun, and he is not of this world, and he has sights on the anti-hero and newly discovered Spider-Totem from Remnant, Cinder Fall, walking around Castle Doom.


Beast OST-Next Episode Preview

Grimadoom: HELL-LO. My name is Grimadoom the Hedgehog. Old windbag Salem forced me to accompany her on her research about Spider-Totems. I don't really care. I don't even know how I got dragged into this. Huh? Who is this creep with the fancy dress? An Inheritor? What the heck's an Inheritor, and what business does he have with us?

Next time on D-Avengers: The Fell Awakening:

Introducing Morlun

Grimadoom: Don't come any closer, freak! I'm not anyone's food!


KFX Here: If you read the epilogue of Spider-Island DX, I'm sure you would've saw this coming. Morlun has made his grand appearance in the series. And if you're wondering why he's targeting Cinder, remember she's technically a Spider-Totem because of her symbiote that has all of Spider-Man's abilities and DNA. Salem and Grimadoom are also considered Spider-Totems because they possess his powers as well, either because of a symbiote, or in Grimadoom's case, a hybrid clone of multiple heroes between all their dimensions.
