I jump on top of a balcony next to Times Square, so I could see exactly what's going on. I could clearly see some cars flying all over the place, military soldiers, the Avengers helping civilians , what caused all this? Is it the Hulk's comeback? I can't exactly see who are what made all this happen, but it's clearly a giant danger. I see Yellowjacket wiz past me and go right into the zone as well.

When I finally jump into the scene, I am greeted by Captain America, who was helping the citizens with escaping in one piece.
"Spider-Man, good for you to show up!"

"Thanks Cap, what's up?"

"Someone we faced a long time ago, he's terrorising the block"

A long time ago? How many threatening dudes have the Avengers fought already?

"Who, exactly?"

Before the Captain could speak, Iron Man flew into a building, with ruble coming down on him.

"Tony!" I web zip over to the wreckage and lift the concrete off of Iron Man.

His armour was nothing but battered. It looked like a crushed tin can, literally! He could barely move!

"Quick….take the mask off" sparks were flying out of the faceplate

I used my wall sticking and super strength to pull the faceplate straight off.

"What the heck is going on?" I crouch down

"Ugh…."

"Wait, Spider-Sense" I interrupted

I heard a click clack noise from behind me, I looked back to see armed men with yellow shades and shoulder pads printed 'MRD'.

I also noticed that their weapons had the label 'Stark Industries'. Didn't Tony stop making weapons?

"Stand down Spider-Man! We have direct orders from—"

"Guys, stand down, he's with us" Tony lifted his hand up

"But sir, wasn't he—"

Sir? Did an MRD soldier call Tony 'Sir'?

"The mutant is over there, go!" Tony pointed behind them

"But—" The main officer interrupted the other "Yes sir"
The soldiers run out into a fray of floating metal objects.

"Okay kid, so….."

"You own the MRD?!" I interrupted

"Of course I do! Who else was gonna fund them after Worthington and Kelly left?"

"I don't know, SHIELD?"

Tony chuckled "No."

"True….." I said

The ground shook and I get in a fighting stance "Cap told me you've fought this guy before, who is he?"

"Remember that Mutant Terrorist that used to own Genosha?"

"Genosha?"

"Yeah, Genosha. Guy wears a ridiculous red and purple outfit."

"Wait, do you mean-?!"

Before I could finish,a floating figure dressed in red and purple, with a giant cape suited along with it, started getting closer and closer. Lamp posts, TV screens, cars, buses, traffic lights, everything metal was floating around him, accompanied with a giant purple force field.

Oh crud.

It was Magneto.

"Spidey, I don't want to be a junk heap…."
"Yeah, working on that" I carry Tony up and look for a place to shoot a web

A star-spangled shield flies directly at Magneto and he stops it without even breaking a sweat!

Arrows shot from the side, Black Panther shot his Vibranium daggers at him, but Magneto kept holding every single metal object thrown at him in place.

The guy must have a tremendous amount of skill.

Just by opening his hand, all the objects thrown at him scattered everywhere. He turned to Captain America, who just got his shield back, and started throwing massive debris at him.

"He's distracted, let's move"

I web zip out of the destroyed structure and land on top of the tallest building available.

I put Tony down "You get some back up, tell that robot butler to send you on a Quinjet"

I start running to the edge.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going down there to fight, like an Avenger" I said

Tony rose an eyebrow "You really want full-time, don't you?"

I ignored him and jumped down towards Magneto.


Magneto lifted a bus full of people inside and threw it at Captain America. Ms Marvel intervened and grabbed the bus, landing it on the ground and removing the door.

"Out people, out!" She yelled as the citizens ran out

Black Panther leaped towards Magneto and threw his daggers at him. Captain America used this as an opportunity to run behind Magneto and search for a weak spot.

I noticed a floating car Magneto had floating around him, so I landed on it.

"Y'know, for a name as awesome as Magneto, you need a new design choice" I said

He bolted towards me, staring straight at me.

"Okay, that's menacing, I'll give you that"

He crushed the car below me by closing his palm. I leaped off of it and web zipped towards a floating lamp post.

Magneto stretched his arms out, making me fly back all while throwing a massive amount of debris at me.

"Alright lamp post, it's been a good 5 seconds" I leaped from the land post, webbed it, and started swinging it around like a mace, pushing all debris in front of me away.

When I finally reached Magneto, I attacked with the lamp post one more time.

Pop goes the-

Magneto stopped the lamp post by lifting his palm, leaving me hanging. With a flick of a finger, he made the lamp post fly back with me still hanging on to it.

Ms Marvel flew in and punched him in the jaw, allowing Hawkeye to shoot an arrow at him.

I was flying back, then I was stopped in mid air by some sort of red energy, which also lowered me safely to the ground.

I turn to see the same crimson female I saw at the Avengers Mansion.

"Wanda! That's your name right?"

"Call me Scarlet Witch when in the field. Go help some citizens, I'll deal with my father-"

"Father!?" I turned to Magneto, who was holding off Cap, Black Panther, Hawkeye, and Ms Marvel simultaneously, then turned back to Scarlet Witch "That madman is your father!?"

She simply ignored me and flew off "Wasp, help him out"

Wasp grew in full form next to me and waved "Howdy!"

"Hi" I waved back "So-"

Spider-Sense...

"Spidey look out!" Wasp yelled

I tried to jump in the air, but it was too late as I was already trapped by metal.

"I'll get you out!" Wasp shrinked and started shooting at the metal encasement.

"Jan...this isn't working!" I whispered

I suddenly flew up in the air and stopped right in front of Magneto.

"Listen to me young man, I'm making a great risk by causing a commotion in order to retrieve you"

I tried to free myself from the metal. I looked back and saw the Avengers unable to get through the purple energy around us. I can see Scarlet Witch try to hold it off, and Vision suddenly flew in trying to phase through the energy.

Nobody was able to get through.

"Retrieve me?" I grunted

"Yes. You are a rather...unique specimen. This power growing inside of you, is rather interesting"

I bolted wide-eyed at him.

"How do you-?!"

"I am warning you right now boy, your power is attracting every single person possible. From the X-Men to that disgusting filth Nathaniel Essex. Better off for you to join me than to join them or these Avengers frauds."

Nathaniel? He knows that weirdo?

" Sorry, I have no interest in joining murderous freaks like you"

He crushed his fist and tightened the metal encasement around me.

"Don't be a feeble-minded fool! These people fear you. They don't want to cure you, they want to control you!"

"How...do you...know that?" I struggled for breath.

He held out his hand "I know how it's like. Trust me, join me. Imagine what we can accomplish together."

"Not a chance"

He tightened his fist even harder and I yelped in pain.

It's like the metal was starting to go into my own skin! It sounds crazy, I know, but that's what it honestly feels like! I'm loosing my breath, my lungs feel like they'll pop at any second.

Just when I thought I'd die at that moment, my surroundings turn red. I see my suit ripping up, and the metal encasement doing it as well.

It's happening again. I need to stop it. But if I do stop it, I could die! Should I just let it happen?

No, if I'll die for the safety of others, so be it.

I try to hold it in, but it was no use. The metal expands and rips apart as my arms grow.

I look back at Magneto, but he wasn't there! It was nothing but a blurry image of a green and purple figure.

Right when the metal encasement finally breaks, I freeze in mid-air.

The entire landscape and location is replaced with red clouds.

I look back at my arms, I look completely normal. As in, my arms are the size they should be in.

"...Am I dead?" I say as my voice echoed.

Before I could continue echoing my voice in what seems to be the afterlife, I hear a maniacal laugh. Not just any maniacal laugh though, I've heard this laugh before, and it was certainly not from Magneto. It was his laugh.

I look back to the direction of the noise, and a man with green skin, yellow eyes, and purple items of clothing was standing before me. He was riding on a silver platform, and he had a pumpkin-like grenade in his hand. He continued laughing, staring right at me.

"It's you!"
