"How cute. A Wheeler family reunion. Too bad I'll be killing the two of you," my clone taunted Ms Marvel and myself.

"We'll see about that," I shot back at him as Ms Marvel and I clenched our fists and prepared to fight. I wanted to focus on just my clone but I was worried Ms Marvel couldn't handle four guards all on her own.

The guards were the first to move. They charged us while my clone stayed behind and watched. I sidestepped one and punched the other that attacked me. Ms Marvel shot a fuschia energy blast at one and kicked the other hard in the stomach.

My spider-sense went off as the guard behind me closed in to punch me. I spun around and shot a blast of webbing into his eyes then roundhouse kicked him in the jaw. I then pulled my sword from its sheath on my back and slashed at the other guard, cutting him across the chest. The guard I shot the web blast at had just pulled the webbing off of his eyes when I thrusted my sword through his neck. I didn't bother waiting to see if it killed him because I had to deal with my other guard first before my clone decided to jump in on the action, he was probably realizing that he would have to at this point.

Turns out I was right. My clone was moving in. On Ms Marvel. "MOLLY! Watch your flank!" I called to her as I slammed my fist into the other guard's face and ran to tackle my clone away from Ms Marvel.

"I'll take care of him! Try to hold those guys off!" I called to her as I punched my clone in the face.

"Do you really think this plan of yours is going to work Jason?" he asked me as he headbutted me in the nose. I released my grip on him. I jumped back and shot a webline at him but he moved out of the way. He was just as fast as me. I knew Reshef had made my clone stronger than me, at the time he took the sample of my DNA, but I thought I had gotten a lot stronger while I was on Demstar IV. I guess I didn't get strong enough. I needed to outthink him.

Aracnor(my clone) shot weblines out of each of his extra spider legs that were on his back, making it impossible for me to try getting close enough to him to hit him. I kept moving as I stradegized mentally.

"Know what I keep wondering?" Aracnor asked me as he caught my foot with a webline and I fell flat on my face.

"What?" I asked as I layed there a few seconds, waiting for my spider sense to go off.

"Why'd you bother with Kitty? Rachel's hotter. Stronger," he paused. "And less prude." He was trying to make me angry. He didn't know that Kitty and I broke up or that I had been dating Miu after. It made sense, my DNA sample he was created from was from when I was dating Kitty. Any memories he may have gotten from me would have stopped at that point.

"What can I say?" I started. "I guess I don't like redhead as much as you do." I quickly got up and spun around, shooting several stingers aimed at his six eyes. Two of them hit their targets. He screamed out in pain.

"Son of bitch! You'll pay for that!" He growled as he clutched his two eyes that I shot.

I glanced at Ms Marvel and saw her blast the head off of one guard and a hole through the torso of another. She could handle the last one no problem. Just like I could now handle my clone.

I shot a webline at him and managed to snag his leg when he tried dodging it. I yanked him towards me kicked him hard in the back. I didn't hold anything back. I kicked him again in the ribs, breaking them. I picked him up by the neck and punched him twice, breaking his nose. His spider legs hit me all at once and forced me to let go. He still had some fight left.

I shot some more loads of webbing at him and got him in the face. I charged him and tackled him to the ground, then grabbed and broke the spider leg that tried hit me. He screamed in pain but then started laughing. "Come on Jason... kill me. Prove that you're just as much a monster as I am."

"I'm nothing like you," I said as I broke his jaw. He was trying to play mind games. I refused to fall for it. I sprayed a load of webbing down his throat and got up turning to Ms Marvel who had just finished up her last guard. "Let's get out of here," I suggested.

After we got back we found out that my plan had went exactly as planned. Each decoy team had defeated two of Reshef's top soldiers. He was done for. He even confirmed it for us with his next news cast:

"It would appear that a team so-called Avengers has formed and as everyone is aware I banned superheroes from this planet a long time ago. Since these Avengers have become so skilled at hiding it is impossible to properly punish them so the citizens of Earth will be the ones to suffer. At 6pm tomorrow if the Avengers do not appear at Time Squre then I shall kill every citizen in an entire state for each day they do not show up. Until then."

"He's scared," I concluded.

"He didn't sound scared," Eli pointed out.

"Well he is. His army is basicly nothing because of us. He wants us all in one place so can try taking us out. He probably doesn't realize how many of us there are. We're gonna win this. We have to," I told him sternly. Clearly there were a few broken spirits that needed fixing.

"Look... I know this a lot to ask for Eli, I know Reshef's done a lot of damage, but the world needs us. It needs you to be Captain America," Steve Rogers rested a hand on Eli's shoulder and told him this.

"Me?" he asked shocked.

He nodded. I left, knowing this situation was under control and only slightly worried about the ones I was about to run into.

I knocked on a door and poked my head into a room, "Kate?"

"Oh, hey Jase," she smiled half-heartidly at me. "Looks I'm back to mix and matching costumes."

"Sorry about that, we grabbed what we could from Reshef's warehouse."

"It's okay. I don't mind this. Really," she explained. She was wearing Black Widow's jump suit was holding Arachne's mask in her hands.

"Yeah, it'll due for now... I actually broguht something for you," I told her holding up the box I had in my hands.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Well you're our best marksman so I figured these would be best in your hands," I set the box in front of her.

"Guns?" she asked as she opened the box. "I don't use guns Jason. You know that. Guns-"

"Kill. I know. That's what we need. Just for now at least. You can go back to just a bow and arrow after we defeat Reshef but until then you're gonna need more firepower. Most of the bullets are coated with adamantium so they'll be able to take out just about any of Reshef's guys. Kate, please... just this once," I asked.

She stared at the guns then looked at me, "Just this once."

"Jason," Threever found me in the hallway as I walked around checking on people.

"Yeah, Threever? What's going on?" I asked.

"Two things. Come see," he pulled me by the arm and into the workshop he had set up in an unused room. I noticed he had Victor and Vision in the room as well. "Okay, well these two were both created by Ultron, you know that. What you didn't know though, is that they're meant to be one. That was Ultron's plan. Vision's CPU downloaded into Victor Mancha's body."

"Would it still work? I mean, Vision's CPU isn't in his body, it's in Iron Lad's armor," I pointed out.

"That's just a nice bonus," Threever smiled.

"Did you know about this Vision?" I asked.

"Yes. But without someone who has a thorough understanding of our technology, such as Threever, it could end disasterous," Vision explained.

"Yeah, he said it could wipe out both of our brains," Victor added.

"Are you guys letting him do it?" I asked. The two nodded.

"I know what I'm doing. Before you know it Victor will have all of Vision's knowledge and power as well as the Iron Lad armor. Think of it this way, it's just another upgrade. A dangerous but an upgrade nonetheless," Threever explained.

"Okay... just be careful. What was the other thing you needed to show me?" I asked.

"This," he ushered to an Iron Man armor.

"What about it?" I asked.

"I've created an AI for it," he stated. "Iron Man: online."

"I am Iron Man," the armor stated.

"Can we trust it?" I asked.

"Yep. I didn't do this in one night. I spent a lot of time in making it. I based his AI off of your friend, Captain America. He seemed like someone the people of your world admired," Threever explained.

"You can trust me," Iron Man agreed.

Part of me didn't want to and disagreed about the idea of trusting a machine but in reality he was no different than The Vision. I needed to keep that in mind, "Okay. I trust you."

*Later that night...* I sat down on my bed in my room and started staring out my window at the planets and stars. We were about to save the world. The reality of how close we were to saving the Earth was almost impossible to take in. One more fight. We just needed to win one more fight. I needed to make sure this happened. I needed to see Miu's face again, even if we'd never be together again I needed to see her again.

*The next day...* "Okay everyone. We know the plan. We can do this. This is it!" I started my speech to the Avengers army standing before me. "Reshef's army is only a fraction of what it once was. We've all lost people: friends, loved ones, family. Do it for them! Hold nothing back! We're the Avengers! Let's do some avenging!"

Everyone started to cheer. I nodded to Steve Rogers after the aplause died down and he hit a few commands into the computer to teleport us all to Time Square where we would battle for the fate of the Earth.
