"Come on man…two girls?" Deadpool said as he started making weird gestures with his hands.

Spidey's Life is a Game Season 1 Finale: Finale
Chapter 13: No More Heroes
"She can't be serious!" Spider-Man shouted as he stared at the spot that the announcer had previously held. Reaper looked between her team mates and gestured at Team Amazing.
"Let's go, we need to eliminate them with extreme prejudice." Reaper told them coldly as she slid her claws out making Talon mimic her actions with a glare.
"What!?" Chun-Li II asked in shock.
"This is no longer about us; if we fall so does our entire world. This is about survival; our realities are no longer linked, meaning that woman…" Reaper began as she pointed at Chun-Li. "Is neither my friend nor your ancestor. Take her out." Reaper ordered before turning to Spidey-2099. "You handle the web-head; I'll end the cub and back you both up later. You know they can't stop me."
"You expect me to kill my predecessor?" Miguel questioned skeptically as he crossed his arms.
"No I expect you to save your loved ones by stalling him until I reach you. You aren't on his level yet but get your head out of your god damned ass, and fight!" Reaper shouted making him clench his fist in anger.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Spider-Man questioned angrily. "I taught you better than this you are supposed to be a hero!" And even though he wasn't shouting at her, Talon looked down in shame.
"Don't you get it?" Reaper asked with a bitter smile. "The lives at stake outweigh our petty morals. This isn't about heroism or virtue; this is to see how far six "Heroes" are willing to go. That woman wants to see how well we survive here."
"Where!? The roof of the tower?" Chun-Li asked angrily making Talon look up at her counterpart with narrowed eyes.
"No, not here literally. She means the place that I live." Talon said coldly as she began walking towards her older self.
"The place where I thrive." Reaper stated with a smirk as she walked toward.
"A place where…" Talon continued as she ran forward as reaper dashed at her on all fours.
"There are no more heroes!" Reaper roared as both ferals lunged at each other.
*CLANG!*
Reaper smirked as both she and Talon parried each other's claws. Talon struggled to pusher back Reaper's claws, but to no avail.
"Funny this is just like my last fight with Talon…" Reaper thought as she began to push the younger mutant back. "And just like that time, Talon will fall." Talon gritted her teeth and flipped back, ejecting her right foot claw as she did so, and attempted to spear Reaper through her chin. "Please." Reaper deadpanned as she back handed the limb away from her, making the younger feral fall onto the ground. "I know all your moves, darling. You'll have to try better than that…not that you'll have the chance." Reaper corrected as she raised her right leg.
*SNICKT!*
"Bye. Bye." Reaper said as she swung her leg down as Talon tried to stand back up.
*Thwip!*
Spider-Man shot a web line at her leg and yanked the old feral towards him with a mighty pull. Reaper frowned when she found herself flying towards the spider themed hero and used her left foot claw to cut the web line and land in a crouch. Spider-Man was about charge her when blue clawed hand appeared in front of his face.
! Spider-Sense: Duck!
Spider-Man frowned beneath his mask as Spidey-2099's talons barely missed him. Spider-Man punched at him quickly, only to find his fist passing through a hologram.
"As much as I hate to admit it, Reaper's right." Spidey-2099 said, obviously not happy with the situation. "You're a good man, but I can't risk my home planet dying." Spidey-2099 told the hero, however because his back was turned he never saw Chun-Li descending upon him with her leg raised high.
"Oh no you don't!" Chun-Li II muttered as she sent a round house kick at her ancestor, who quickly blocked it and attempted to counter with a palm strike to her descendant's chest only for the futuristic martial artist to dodge it nearly effortlessly. "Watch your guard." Chun-Li II whispered to her team mate before backing up as Chun-Li sent a barrage of kicks at her. Batting each blow away easily, Chun-Li II spun around and rammed her fist into the Grandmaster's stomach.
"*Gnh*!" Chun-Li winced as the blow actually lifted her off of the ground and sent her sailing into the air. Flipping as she fell, Chun-Li landed on one knee as she held her side while blood dribbled from her mouth. "She actually took out a rib!" Chun-Li thought with wide-eyes. "Her blows… they're not human! Easily five times stronger than mine at least! She's faster, stronger, and knows my moves before I do them it's like fighting Peter if he knew all of my moves!" Chun-Li released a shaky breath as she stood back up. "I need to test something out…" Chun-Li thought to herself before dashing forward towards her descendant who watched her impassively.
"Please, give up Hiibaa-sama (1) you will die tonight, I wish that weren't true, but it is…please don't make me be the one to cause it! At least grant me that!"Chun-Li II said sorrowfully making Chun-Li grit her teeth; she could nearly feel the pain coming from her descendant's voice. Pink Chi filled Chun-Li's right hand and she thrust it forward at the younger fighter.
-Slo-Mo-
"Kikoken?" Chun-Li II wondered as she stepped slightly to the sideso that she could barely dodge the attack. She was about to break the woman's outstretched arm when suddenly a large amount of chi erupted from the hand and slammed into her side. "What!?" So stunned by being hit, Chun-Li II never noticed a small pink orb leaving her ancestor's chest and floating harmlessly into the sky.
-Slo-Mo: end-
"KIKOSHO!" Chun-Li roared sending the younger woman flying over the edge of the roof.
"With one hand!?"Chun-Li II questioned with wide eyes as she grabbed onto the edge of the roof with her left hand. The young woman frowned when she glanced down and saw nothing but bust traffic beneath her.
"It doesn't have to end this way, we can at least try to figure something out!" Chun-Li said as she stood on the edge of the roof and looked down at her descendant. Chun-Li reached out a hand to the dangling fighter.
"I'm sorry, but we both know it's too late." Chun-Li II muttered sadly as her right hand shined blue with chi.
-Slo-Mo-
Using her left hand to launch herself up in blinding speeds with her right fist clenched tightly Chun-Li II attempted to uppercut her ancestor, who barely stepped back in time to avoid her head being blown off.
-Slo-Mo: End-
"SHORYUKEN!" Chun-Li II roared as Chun-Li stared at her in disbelief. The force of the would-be-fatal blow ripped off the black ribbons keeping her hair in place. Instinctively, Chun-Li delivered a well-placed palm thrust into her descendant's stomach sending the younger woman flying over the streets below.
"T-that move!" Chun-Li thought incredulously as the implications of who might have been Chun-Li II's great-grandfather rang through her head. "R-Ryu?" Is what Chun-Li thought as she watched her falling descendant raise a hand towards her with wide-eyes. That is of course, until those wide-eyes suddenly narrowed and the hand formed devil horns before a white rope sprung from Chun-Li II's wrist and connected to Chun-Li's waist. "What!?" Chun-Li thought frantically as she found herself yanked off of the roof and towards her descendant. Chun-Li II flipped and crouched on the side of a nearby building and sprung forward, successfully tackling Chun-Li through the window of the adjacent building.
-Avengers Tower: Penthouse-
"You all just saw that right?" Tony questioned as he looked around the room at Hawkeye, Black Widow, Captain America, Wolverine, Thor, Dante, Trish, Deadpool, Jubilee, and Spider-Woman.
"I know right! That Shoryuken was awesome." Deadpool said dreamily.
"No you idiot, he's talking about the fact she has spider powers." Hawkeye said as he rubbed his temples.
"But that's obvious though." The mercenary deadpanned making the heroes turn to him with wide eyes. "Spidey got busy! Bow-Chika wow-wow!"
"Lucky, bastard." Tony grumbled causing Black Widow to clear her throat.
"I'm sorry but why are we not going after that announcer? She just placed the world in danger." Natasha pointed out not unreasonably.
"Because if we interfere Team Amazing will be disqualified, forfeiting our planet in the process. All we can do now is hope. Hope that this all works out in the end." Captain America told her calmly, but it was obvious that he was not happy about the situation at all.
-Meanwhile: Talon vs. Reaper-
*Clang!*
"I'll admit it. You are surprisingly tougher than I expected." Reaper said coolly as Talon blocked her right foot claw.
"And you are weaker than I had expected." Talon stated making the woman glare. Talon back flipped and landed in a crouch as she glared up fiercely at Reaper. "Too slow!" Talon shouted as she leaped at the older feral only to find herself grabbed by her neck.
"Too predictable." Reaper drawled before tossing Talon to the ground. "You are just prolonging the inevitable, I'm better than you in every way. Give up before you accidentally release a monster."
"What are you talking about?" Talon growled as she flipped back to her feet.
"Oh come on little cub, don't tell me you haven't realized it yet. I'm not you." Reaper drawled.
"What!?" Talon questioned in shock making the older feral give her a mock bow.
"Allow me to reintroduce myself, I am Reaper your feral side…and currently I'm holding back the most evil monster of all…you." Reaper revealed making Talon stare at her in horror.
-With Spider-Man vs. Spider-Man 2099-
"It doesn't have to be this way! You can't tell me something honestly doesn't seem off about this!" Spider-Man roared as ducked under a slash from Spidey-2099's claws. "There are so many people on this earth from different time lines, realities, etc. already! Why would you all make a difference? We don't have the entire story." Spider-Man yelled as he punched his successor off of the building and leapt after him.
"You think I don't realize that!?" Spidey-2099 questioned as he began web swinging with Spider-Man following after him. "This is not a bluff I can risk calling though, what if she's right? Then what!? What do you expect me to do?" Spidey-2099 demanded as he landed on the side of a building and jumped at his predecessor with his arm cocked back.
"I expect you to do what Spider-Man would do!" Spider-Man shouted as he mirrored his successor's actions.
-Destroyed Office building: Chun-L vs. Chun-Li II-
"The Spider-Gene…" Chun-Li II drawled as she began walking towards her tired ancestor. "Spider-Man's blood courses through all of his descendants; it's a gene that grows with you so it is always potent, no matter how much you dilute the blood." The woman then clenched her fist tightly until it began to tremble and raised the appendage to Chun-Li's face. "This is true power. Power that can either corrupt you or save you depending on how you embrace it."
"What do you mean?" Chun-Li question cautiously making her descendant smirk.
"There are too way to strengthen the gene until it reaches its pinnacle level of power. Either from feeding from Chaos, which includes death, confusion, pain, anger…hatred." Chun-Li II began with a smirk. "Or Tantra, which includes passion, lust, pleasure, ecstasy…love." The younger woman further explained. "As your powers get stronger it will begin to change you, make you so much better in so many unimaginable ways; even allowing you to cheat death once if progressed far enough."
"Unbelievable." Chun-Li muttered as she recalled Spider-Man's "Death" when something hit her. "But wait doesn't your death split you into two then?"
"Whichever energy you didn't use will be drawn to your former vessel and bring it to life, that is true." Chun-Li II said with a shrug. "We call them "Others" and their survival is vital if you want to one day reach the final stage of the gene like I have, however nothing is ever easy and many others tend to die off in less than a year because of their terribly short life-spans."
"What is this final stage?" Chun-Li questioned as she lowered herself into a fighting stance.
"Now that would be telling, but maybe you'll get to see mine. Everyone has their own version and everyone that has seen mine is dead. I have been saving up my Chaotic energy for this fight anyway." Chun-Li II said as she mirrored her stance while her eyes bled red. "Let me give you a taste of true power." She said as a burning sensation began to flow though her veins making her body feel lighter.
"There really is no other way." Chun-Li said solemnly before dashing forward as her hands shined pink.
"Only the strongest survive." Chun-Li II said as both of her ancestor's hands appeared mere inches from her face.
-Slow-Mo-
"CHOU-KIKOSHO!" Chun-Li roared as the energy blew from her palms only to seemingly phase through the younger fighter. "What? An after image?" Chun-Li thought in shock and sure enough aside from the image in front of her there were five more ethereal forms of Chun-LI II running around her.
"You're too slow." Chun-LI II said a she slammed the palm of her hand into Chun-Li's back.
*CRACK*
-Slo-Mo End-
"AHHHHH!" Chun-Li screamed in pain as her back was shattered from the blow as she went sailing forward through two walls before painfully landing face down.
"I am sorry it had to end this way, truly I am." Chun-Li II said solemnly. "I never wanted to be the cause of a relative's death, but this is the path I chose. Vengeance at all costs."
"T-that p-path... I-is wrong…why can't you see that?" Chun-Li asked tiredly making her descendant close her eyes in pity.
"Spoken like a fool. There is only one truth in this world: Might is Right. And only through hatred can you truly become strong." The red-eyed fighter said as she gazed down at Chun-Li and raised her right foot over Chun-Li's head. "Any last words?"
"Y-you…lack discipline…" Chun-Li muttered as she glared up at her descendant. Chun-Li II narrowed her eyes as her foot began to shine with chi. Chun-Li II never noticed a small ball of pink chi floating up behind her.
"It's over."
"It is…Tenchu (2)." Chun-Li forced out causing her descendant's eyes to widen in horror and turn back just in time to see the small pink orb blast into her chest.
"No!" Chun-Li II shouted in agony as her bones began to crack as a gentle sensation flowed through her body. Snapping and cracking could be heard as Chun-Li II's body began bending on its own until the young fighter fell down next to her ancestor. The two nearly identical women glared at each as both were unable to move.
"Tenchu or also known as Divine Retribution one of your more frightening techniques…which you shouldn't even have yet." Chun-Li II said sounding slightly bewildered. "It forces whoever is hit by it into the same state as the user." The younger woman finished as she glared forward fiercely.
"You would be right, I hadn't planned to even start attempting to train that attack until after this tournament…but you made me speed up the process. I let you hit me and prolonged the fight. Truth be told, though I did not truly need to even use it. You can dodge and to anyone else you are the perfect fighter…but now I see…" Chun-Li began with a bitter laugh.
"Now you see what!?"
"You. Are. Weak." Chun-Li spoke coldly as blue Chi began to cover her body. Chun-Li gritted her teeth in pain as the sound of her bones popping into place rang through the room. "I have fought against and learned from the strongest woman in the universe. You are nothing compared to her." Chun-Li said as she sat up and glared down at her descendant who was staring at her in shock. "When I fought her I quickly found the limits to my style and began to get beaten swiftly and mercilessly. So I decided to try a different approach, guess what it was?"
"…what?"
"My bonds." Chun-Li said simply. "Each of the people I know whether friends or enemies…they each had their own way of fighting so I used them to give me more variety and replicated them to the best of my ability…but that failed as well because you can never use recycled moves as efficiently as the original users. So you know what I did after that?"
"…" The younger fighter didn't say anything but it was obvious that she was listening intently.
"I made them my own. Redesigned them to be perfect for my own use and created an entirely new style. From Spider-Man's way of the spider to using Chi to create a weaker version of Talon's healing I shaped them to be mine. What I am trying to tell you is simple." Chun-Li said before standing up. "Whether it be mine, Ryu's moves, or hell even Guile if you have a few of those- the point is they won't work against me if you aren't those individuals. You are using second hand knowledge there is no way you can beat me without your own strength." Chun-Li said as the younger fighter's eyes widened at the realization.
"Hmph. So this is the Undefeatable Chun-Li? The woman with ten thousand techniques…now I know why my parents were so proud to talk about you." Chun-LI II whispered to herself. "But why...why could my spider-sense not feel your attack?" Chun-Li II questioned as her ancestor turned away from her.
"It's obvious isn't it? All I want is what's truly best for you. We're family and I love you unconditionally and it's that love that prevented you from noticing my move." Chun-Li said seriously though when she glanced back her descendant saw nothing but love.
"Unbelievable…this…is the end of my path." Chun-Li II whispered as tears fell from her eyes.
"We can end this anytime you're ready."
"No." Chun-LI II said suddenly making her ancestor turn to her in confusion. The younger fighter clenched her fists as the Image of a crimson eyed Laura assaulted her. "I can't stop walking forward on this path…not until Talon is dead." Chun-Li looked at her in shock when suddenly a body crashed into the room and landed next to Chun-Li II.
*Thud*
Chun-Li turned around and saw Spider-Man panting as he bent over and placed his hands on his knees.
"This is insane these people are stronger than I had thought. They are easily the strongest team we have fought this entire tournament, if I hadn't kept the fight in the air so he couldn't use his holograms I probably could have lost." Spider-Man muttered.
"So you won?" Chun-Li questioned making him nod. "I didn't hear any announcement though and you aren't teleporting."
"I know I am just as confused as you…you won too right?" Spider-Man asked cautiously. "What did you do ground her?" Chun-Li rolled her eyes at his jab but answered nonetheless.
"Yes she should be unable to continue." Chun-Li said with a frown. Something wasn't adding up their victories should have been announced by now.
"It's not over until your opponent dies." Chun-Li II said tiredly as she rolled on top of the unconscious Miguel. "I'm so sorry Miguel, you deserve better than this; you were the only real hero left in the world…a true Spider-Man." Chun-Li II said as her eyes began to glisten with unshed tears while she placed trembling hands on his neck. "Your life is filled with Chaos…but your death will save our world…this I swear."
"Death…chaos?" Spider-Man questioned when suddenly his Spider-sense started tingling. "Crap we have to stop her!" Spider-Man roared as he shot web at the young fighter, but before it could connect…
*Crack*
Silence rang through the room as the two members of Team Amazing stared at the woman in horror.
Spider-Man 2099: Dead
Spider-Man vs. Spider-Man 2099
Spider-Man WINNNNS!
Team Amazing: 1
Team Amazing-2099: 0
"Why…WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT!?" Spider-Man roared in outrage as Chun-LI II threw her head back as she felt her Chaotic reserves reach new heights while her eyes burned brighter.
"There truly are no more heroes left in this battle." Chun-Li II spoke up as she began to stand, shocking Chun-Li. "I told you there was a final level of the Spider-Gene." The woman said as she turned to Chun-Li.
"What is she talking about Chun-Li?" Spider-Man questioned cautiously making his team mate glance towards him as she slipped into a fighting stance.
"I'll just say this, her other ancestor is in this room as well apparently." Chun-Li said bluntly shocking the hero. "Her Chi has changed…something big is coming."
"The final stage after the "Other"…" Chun-LI II began as she held her sides in pain. "Unity A transformation that combines the human side and Spider-side in perfect harmony it's different for everyone but they are all equally deadly."
*CRACK*
"AHHH!" Chun-LI II screamed as the red in her irises began to bleed out into her sclera while a crimson energy flowed from her eyes sockets like flames. "There are too many lives depending on me winning!" Chun-LI II roared as her skin started to turn grey while a black boney substance began to grow over her hands.
"Spider-Man; go help Talon." Chun-Li spoke up suddenly as she crossed her arms in front of her as golden Chi erupted from her body.
"What!?"
"She needs your help more than I do; go before it gets too late!" Chun-Li shouted making Spider-Man clench his fists. "Now!" Spider-Man nodded reluctantly before swinging off towards the roof of Avenger's Tower. "Chou Ryu-Kyaku!"
*BOOOOM*
A golden light erupted from Chun-Li as the exploding Chi destroyed the building.
-Moments later-
"It's time for the real battle…and don't worry even with my borrowed moves there are still plenty you haven't seen yet." Chun-Li II said as she stood on top of the rubble. The young woman's eyes seemed to be replaced with crimson flames as her skin turned an ashy gray. Tearing off her Kimono she revealed that most of her body was covered by a black fleshy substance that fit her like a second skin. On her chest was a pulsing red spider.
But the most dramatic change?
She now had six arms.
"The Exo-skeleton, the "Other" increases attacking potential, Unity does that and adds defense." Chun-Li II smirked as she stared at her ancestor. Chun-Li did nothing but continue to frown slightly. Chun-Li looked the same as she had earlier only there was gold electricity sparking from her randomly as a golden ethereal Chinese dragon wrapped around her body. "As long as you don't release that attack you can increase your body's power…let's see how strong your ultimate attack really is."
"RAHHHH!" The ethereal dragon roared as Chun-Li silently slipped into a fighting stance.
"This is perfect! I can feel your bloodlust; you are just as anxious for this fight as I am!That's why you sent Spider-Man away isn't it? So we would have no interruptions."Chun-LI II smirked as her ancestor just narrowed her eyes.
-Minutes later: Talon vs. Reaper-
*THUD*
"*oof*" Talon grunted as she crashed onto her back, she had deep gashes all over her body and was bleeding profusely. Reaper straddled her and pinned her arms down with her knees.
"What do ya know, you are strong." Reaper smirked before sniffing loudly. "Miguel is gone and…oh what's this? Seems my little team mate has been holding out on me… I can smell her power from here she's actually above my level now." Reaper said with a slight frown. "Spider-Man is on his way here but it's not like that matters if I remember correctly he's nowhere near strong enough to stop me."
"Don't…underestimate him!" Talon roared as she bucked her hips in an attempt to remove the older feral.
"Just stating facts. He's below me in the food chain." Reaper shrugged as her talons slowly slipped out from her knuckles. "Time to end this." Talon continued to struggle as her eyes began to bleed red.
"Stop!" Talon shouted out making Reaper sigh.
"Goodbye Talon."
"I said STOOOO-RAHHHHHHH!" Reaper froze in equal parts shock and fear as she was hit by bestial roar from the younger mutant. Sweat began to slide down her face as her hands trembled slightly.
"Impossible! There should still be a few more months before she should be able to do that!" Reaper thought frantically as her body continued to tremble. "This is fear?" Reaper wondered before she felt her body being picked up and thrown into the door that led out to the roof.
"Laura! Are you alright?" Spider-Man shouted as he kneeled next to his former pupil. The young mutant just groaned in pain as blood pooled from her mouth making Spider-Man grimace. She was healing very slowly, but healing nonetheless causing him to release a sigh of relief.
"Spider-Man?" Laura questioned as Spidey stood up and glared at where he had thrown Reaper.
"This is enough! Stop your fighting Talon!" Spider-Man shouted as Reaper dug herself from the rubble.
"So you got here in time? No matter there are billions of lives at stake, my children-your children. I refuse to let them die because you can't accept the fact that there is just no other way." Reaper bit out. "Now step aside Spider-Man I'll deal with you later." Reaper growled as Spider-Man got into his fighting stance. "What are you doing? Even if you could kill me you wouldn't. Spider-Man doesn't kill which means Spider-Man can't defeat me."
"You're right, Spider-Man doesn't kill." Spider-Man said solemnly. "But this outweighs Spider-Man. This will be my last fight. I will k-kill you." Spider-Man forced out making both ferals widen their eyes in shock. "And after this, I will hang up the mantle for good. If Spider-Man has to disappear to save this planet then I have no choice."
"You're bluffing." Reaper said with a smirk although she was slightly unnerved by the seriousness in his voice. "And even if you weren't you don't have the power necessary to pull it off."
BGM: Pushing me Away-Linkin Park
"I've been saving this up for weeks, even when fighting Octavius I held this back because I knew I would need it to fight you. I had to use some to knock out your Spider-Man, but I have more than enough to stop you." Spider-Man said before crouching down as his body suddenly felt weightless. "Time to see how much tantric energy helps me out!" Spidey shouted as he blitzed at Reaper while after-images were left behind him. As he ran his body was engulfed with a feeling of pure ecstasy.
"What?" Reaper questioned in shock before a red-clad fist buried itself into her face. Reaper Held her face in pain as she stumbled back. Growling she popped out her second set of claws and charged him only to hit another after-image.
"My speed, strength, and Spider-sense effectiveness increase by fifty percent when I strengthen my body with Tantric energy." Spider-Man thought as he punched her in the face, kicked her in the stomach, and elbowed her in the back of the head in quick succession as his after images mimicked his actions.
"What is this!? I can't even touch him!" Reaper thought incredulously before she felt herself being lifted up by her neck and slammed into the ground causing it to cave in under them.
-With the Avengers-
*BOOM*
The Avengers watched in shock as Talon crashed down from the ceiling with Spider-Man leaping down after her. As soon as he landed, Spider-Man dashed forwards and grabbed her by her face and with slightly over thirty tons of force, slung her at the window.
*CRASH*
"Come on Spidey, faster!" The heroes heard him muttered to himself as he swung after the feral. Spider-Man leapt from his web-line towards his former pupil and began to reign down powerful blows into her head before leaping off of her as she landed on a car.
"*Cough* *Cough*" Reaper groaned as she rolled herself off of the destroyed vehicle. "W-what are you?" Reaper questioned in confusion, Spider-Man should have been nowhere near as strong as he was right now. However the one she was staring at was just an after image that faded as the real Spider-Man appeared behind her with two cars in his hands.
"Your teacher." Spider-Man said simply as he smash both cars in to her, sandwiching her between them, before performing numerous back flips at blinding speeds just as the cars went up in flames.
*BOOOOOM*
"This is amazing, it's like the entire world is moving in slow motion and I can still move at regular speed…no faster!" Spider-Man thought in amazement as a heavily damaged, and pissed off Reaper ran at him from the flames.
"Weapon X: Prime!" Spider-Man just released his stingers as she charged him. She swung her right claws at him only for Spider-Man to duck effortlessly and stab her in the stomach three times with each stinger at blinding speeds. Spider-Man stepped to the side as the venom made its presence known and paralyzed Reaper. Spider-Man grabbed her by the collar of her tattered jacket and threw her into the air.
"Ultimate…Web!" Spider-Man shouted as he covered her in web and began spinning in mid-air. Instead of slamming her into the ground, however, he launched her high in to the sky and followed after her. As he swung after her he looked up and watched in disbelief as a large golden dragon and a large crimson beam collided into each other.
*FLASH*
"Ahh!" Spider-Man shouted in alarm as he and the city were bathed in a white light.
BGM: END
~Earlier: Chun-L vs. Chun-Li II~
BGM: A Path- Nami Miyahara
"No matter how I look at it, this is my fault." Chun-Li thought solemnly as she gazed into the crimson eyes of her descendant. "For any descendant of mine to fall into the darkness…"
"It's not your fault." Chun-Li II said suddenly making her eyes widen. "You are too predictable, I make my own choices. I chose vengeance, I chose chaos, and I choose to continue this path." The younger fighter said as she crossed all six of her arms. "Now let's go." Both women glared at each other before disappearing in a blur of speed. All sound seemed to disappear as they threw themselves in battle.
*BOOOM*
Chun-Li's fist met one of her descendant's the shock wave tore through the streets. The dragon roared causing an explosion of chi to erupt from Chun-Li's fist, pushing her descendant back. Chun-LI II crouched and all of her hands made different signs before she launched herself forward.
"She's using six different styles at once!" Chun-LI thought in surprise, although her face remained impassive. Chun-Li ducked under two blows, countered the next two by batting the hands away, and finally was forced to block the last two that sent her flying back. As she slid back, Chun-Li flipped backwards just as the younger fighter appeared in front of her. "Spinning Bird Kick!" The attack collided directly into Chun-Li II's side, but it didn't stop there. The dragon released another powerful roar that sent the younger fighter flying back into a building.
*BOOOM*
Chun-Li ran forward as her descendant blew through the building causing it to begin to break down. Gathering her chi, Chun-Li leapt over the crumbling building and down towards her descendant that had six devil horns pointed at her. Chun-Li grimaced and began to dodge the web-lines as she fell towards the younger fighter.
"Tengoku…" Chun-Li began as her descendant glared and crouched down.
"Jigoku… (3)" Chun-Li II began as she began to be surrounded by darkness while Chun-Li was surrounded by light
"KYAKU!" Bothe fighters roared as they were both engulfed in a flash of light and darkness.
-Hyper speed-
Both women were trading blows viciously as the world seemed to turn void of color as they fought at blinding speeds.
"You won't win!" Chun-Li II roared as she tried in vain to land a solid blow on her ancestor, who kept dodging each of her arms at the last second.
"You are many years too early to even think you can defeat me." Chun-Li muttered before she leapt forward into the air and flipped in order to attempt to land a devastating heel drop, which was promptly blocked by all six of Chun-Li II's arms.
-Hyper Speed: End-
Chun-Li glared as her kick was being blocked as the ground began to tear apart from the force of the attack while the Kanji's for Heaven and Hell burned in golden and black flames respectively.
"RAHHHHHHHHHH!" The dragon roared sending Chun-LI II crashing to her knees as she struggled to keep her ancestor's leg from destroying her.
"As time passes the dragon continues to empower her…and everyone one of her attacks gets an addition blast of chi. if this keeps up she'll obliterate me…" Chun-LI II thought as she glared into the eyes of the Chinese dragon. "The only way to win would be to force her to release that attack so that she'd go back to her regular level of power…but even then the attack itself is enough to kill me!"
"Please stop this." Chun-Li said sadly. "I don't wish to hurt you anymore."
"Stop looking down on me!" Chun-Li II shouted as she tossed the leg to the side. "It's do or die. Deadpool-Sensei never taught me an ultimate attack so I'll have to improvise. This will be the last exchange…" Chun-Li II thought as she web zipped into the sky. Glaring down at Chun-Li; the six armed woman aimed all of her hands at her ancestor as they each started to form their own ball of red Chi.
"She wouldn't!" Chun-Li thought in horror. "Her body can't handle releasing that much Chi at once! She'll die!" Once each orb grew to the size of a basketball, Chun-Li II crushed them together to form an even larger orb.
"THIS IS IT!"
"STOP!" Chun-Li shouted as tears fell from her eyes. Horrified, Chun-Li realized that if she didn't stop what was coming not only would her and her descendant be destroyed…but so would a good amount of Manhattan. The dragon released a final roar that sent Chun-Li flying at her descendant at blinding speeds as a golden dragon head appeared on her right foot.
"SHINKU HADOUKEN!" Chun-LI II roared as her ancestor became engulfed by a golden dragon. Chun-Li gritted her teeth and performed a round house kick on to the beam.
*KABOOOOM*
*FLASH*
Both women closed their eyes as a white light engulfed them.

Chun-Li frowned when she found herself standing in the clearing of a forest as white doves flew over her and into the clear blue sky as her long hair blew in the wind.
"Hiibaa-Sama!" A small voice shouted and Chun-Li widened her eye sin shock as a brown haired toddler leapt at her. The fighter gapped at the toddler that was giving her a face-splitting grin. "You did it! You did it!"
"What did I do little one?" Chun-Li asked softly as she tried to figure out what the hell happened to her.
"You freed me!" The little girl giggled as she pointed to the left. Chun-Li looked where she was pointing and widened her eyes in shock as she saw the downed form of Chun-LI II lying face down as her six arms began deteriorating along with her body. "Now I can walk on the right path!" The child said enthusiastically as she began to be dissolved by light making Chun-LI look at her in horror.
"What have I done? Wait! Don't go!" Chun-Li shouted as tears flowed down her face making the child giggle.
"Why are you so sad? You've given me the chance to live again!" The Child laughed. Chun-Li brought her into a tight embrace and fell to her knees. The young girl hugged her back awkwardly in confusion. "Don't worry…we'll meet again." The girl promised before bursting in a bright light.
"Kuso…"Chun-Li muttered as she choked back a sob and punched the ground. "KUSO!"

-With Spider-Man and Reaper-
Spider-Man frowned in the direction that the light originated before standing over a battered Reaper as he felt his tantric energy reserves drain to about one-third. Spider-Man kneeled down and placed his stinger over her eye.
"Go ahead…do it; the venom from your stingers should be more than enough to kill even me if stabbed into my brain." Reaper said tiredly. "I underestimated you and grew arrogant over my own power. I deserve this loss…do it before it's too late!" Reaper struggled out as her left sclera began to burn red. "You can defeat me, but she is something else entirely! Hurry!" Spider-Man said nothing as his stinger trembled. Despite his earlier statement he couldn't help but see the young emotionally confused form of his pupil when he looked at her weakened state.
*Thud*
"Spider-Man, move away…I'll end this." A voice said and Spider-Man turned in shock to see a tired, but healed Talon behind him with her claws out. "The world still needs Spider-Man…if you killing her will make him disappear then I'll do it…she's my responsibility in the first place."
*FLASH*
The two members of Team Amazing turned to the sound of someone teleporting behind them and found their third member walking towards them silently. Both of them looked at her in concern as she looked completely and utterly devastated. Chun-Li said nothing to them as she silently picked Reaper up by her collar.
"…Why?" Chun-Li said hollowly making Reaper look down. It took Chun-Li a bit to make the connection but now that she went over everything that had transpired she now knew that the woman in front of her killed her grandchildren and sent their daughter spiraling out of control.
Chun-Li II's thirst for revenge.
Her need to kill Talon
It all made sense, but she couldn't understand why her trusted friend would do such a horrible thing. Chun-Li released a powerful blow to Reaper's stomach, a place not covered by vibranium, making the woman bend over in pain.
"I asked you a question you bitch." Chun-Li said coldly. "…Why did you kill her parents!" Chun-LI shouted angrily stunning Talon and Spider-Man.
"W-what?" Talon gasped out. She knew something wasn't right about her older self…but this was an entirely new low.
"I-I didn't…" Reaper gasped out before pointing at Talon. "She did."
"W-what?" Chun-Li questioned as she released the older feral.
"Long story short, she was split in to two beings her feral side and her. Something went wrong in the separation process and her feral side gained all of her morals while she lost them, she became nothing more than a murdering psychopathic monster and I had to take her place as a hero." Reaper revealed to the horrified team. "She found out, however, that she wasn't the feral side and the guilt drove her further into madness and she wanted to prove that she wasn't Talon…so she killed your grandchildren."
"Oh my God." Spider-Man muttered as Talon covered her mouth with her hands in horror.
"Where is the real one then?" Chun-Li questioned in confusion making Reaper give her a bitter smile.
"Right here." Reaper said as she pointed at her head. "I defeated and locked her up, but at the cost of my peace of mind. I have to fight her back constantly…I barely get any sleep at all and when I do all I have are night mares. You have to kill me now before she breaks free…I'm not sure how much longer I can hold her back. This is why I wanted you to give up! If we fought it would only lead to her gaining her freedom!"
-With the Avenger's-
"This is fucked up." Hawkeye muttered as the heroes watched the scene. Wolverine frowned slightly when he noticed that Jubilee didn't seem surprised at all that the woman wasn't the real Talon.
"Alright kid, spill it why aren't you surprised?" Wolverine growled out making the vampire sigh.
"When we first came here I confronted her about your fight…one thing lead to another and she ended up letting it slip that she wasn't Laura. I couldn't tell you because she threatened to kill every mutant that didn't affect her existence." Jubilee said as she clenched her fists. She didn't understand why, but the knowledge of what happened to the older feral hit her harder than she expected.
"Those three have truly pushed themselves." Captain America said as he gazed at Team Amazing. "When compared to the beginning of this tournament the difference is unbelievable. If you had ever told me Spider-Man could fight like that I would have called you a liar."
"Forget Spider-Man, I'm more concerned that my favorite little Avenger gets out of this in one piece." Tony said seriously.
-Back with Team Amazing-
"This is it. Goodbye…?" Talon trailed off confused.
"Reaper." Reaper said with a tired smile. "Call me Reaper…and I guess this is it. Remember though…the blood of billions will be on your hands." Talon nodded solemnly and dashed forward intent on ramming her claws through the older feral's eyes; however just before the claws could reach their target a hand grabbed her wrist tightly. Talon looked up in shock as Reaper grabbed her wrist as she held her face in pain.
"What?" Talon questioned with a frown.
"Oh no…" Reaper muttered as she stared at Talon in horror as her left eye became completely red. "I-it's too late. I tried to stop you! Why couldn't you all just give up?" Talon widened her eyes as she heard the pain coming from her future counterpart's voice. "I can't hold her back anymore I-I'm S-sorry." The woman finished before her eyes boiled red.

HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!
Talon-2099!
BGM: Philistine- No More Heroes 2 Desperate Struggle OST (LIAG Fun Fact: I HAD TO DO IT!)
The young Feral could barely blink before a large gash crossed her chest as Talon-2099 grinned viciously and grabbed her by her face.
"Sorry cub, but the real fight starts here….it has been so long since I last hunted." The older feral said simply before she sunk her fangs into her counterpart's neck and ripping a piece of it off.
"AHHH!" Talon screamed before she was tossed aside as her older-self swallowed and licked her blood stained lips. "Now which one of you dies first? Fuck it; I'll go for both at the same time." Talon grinned as she dashed forward savagely. "I wonder if you taste like your grandchildren?" Talon question sinisterly as she dove between Spider-Man and Chun-Li.
! Spider-Sense: I told you there was something wrong with this bitch!
-Slow-mo-
Spider-Man and Chun-Li both stepped back as the feral dove between them, but something was wrong. Even though Talon missed, she was grinning widely and both soon found out why.
*SNICKT*
Popping out both of her foot claws, Talon spun around in midair and slashed both of her old comrades across their chests. The cuts luckily weren't deep and only served to startle them.
-Slo-Mo end
"How?" Spider-Man asked in confusion as he held his chest.
"I'm not as predictable as that weakling you fought earlier so your little Spidey-sense won't help you that much!" Talon shouted as she dashed forward tearing up the concrete as she ran due to her turning her nails into claws. "I wonder… who now? How about…you!" Talon roared as she leaped at a tired Chun-Li.
"I barely have any Chi left…" Chun-Li thought in dismay as she thrust forward both of her hands. "KIKOSHO!" The attack collided into the feral, but it didn't deter her as she dived through the orb of chi with her adamantium talons aimed for Chun-Li's chest. However before she could kill the woman she felt her body being yanked back harshly.
"Web-throw!" Spider-Man shouted as he spun her around and launched her into a car.
*BOOOM*
Chun-Li and Spider-Man panted tiredly as they watched the feral crawl from the flames. The fire only allowed them to see the shadow of her body but her blazing eyes shone through the flames effectively making the sight one of the scariest things they have ever seen.
"My turn…" Talon muttered as she walked out of the fire and snarled viciously at her prey. Spider-Man and Chun-Li slipped into their fighting stances as she spit some blood onto the ground. "None of that now…"Talon trailed off as she took a deep breath. "RAHHHHHH!" The inhumane roar caused both of their bodies to lock up as she began dashing at them savagely. "ITS OVER!"
*SCHTIK*
Talon growled as talons were buried into her younger-self's body. The younger Talon snarled viciously as her blazing eyes glared up into her counterpart's.
"Don't ever interrupt my hunt, runt!" Talon growled as she lifted the young feral and threw her to the side. Spider-Man and Chun-Li watched her carefully as they tried to regain control of their bodies, luckily or unluckily depending on how you look at it, Talon had her eyes on a new prey now. The older feral pounced on top of her younger self and began to stab the mutant viciously.
"This is horrible…" Chun-Li whispered in horror as her body finally began to calm down.
"I'm nearly out of tantric energy as well…" Spider-Man muttered gaining a confused look from his team mate. "I'll explain later." Spider-Man said simply. "This isn't good I wasted my tantric energy because I thought Tal-no-Reaper would be the real threat…I was wrong."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Reaper laughed in an insane glee as she continued to stab Laura viciously as tears fell from her crazed eyes.
"W-we have to put her down…" Spider-Man realized with wide-eyes as he turned to a horrified and wounded Chun-Li.
"H-hai." Chun-Li winced as she clenched her fists. "I feared this day would come, I have move that should be able to K-kill her."
"You think you can go through with it?" Spider-Man asked cautiously. "I thought I could too…but when it was time all I could think of was our Laura."
"I'll know when I get there." Chun-Li muttered as she ran towards both Talons as her right hand ignited with a black flame. "Jigoku…" Chun-Li began as she released her punch at the older feral's back. "KEN!"
*BAM*
"Do you ever kill who you attempt to with that move?" The older Talon questioned skeptically as Chun-Li watched horrified as her fist found itself buried in her team mate's stomach. The black flames from the attack left her hands and entered the younger Talon's body. The younger feral's eyes rolled to the back of her head as she fell forward as the older Talon released her.

"N-no." Chun-Li whispered as she caught Talon and shook the mutants limp form.
"Wow she did have her uses…" Talon muttered as she looked at her proverbial meat shield. Talon rubbed her claws together and grinned at the remaining members of Team Amazing. "Alright, who's next?"
"I never thought I'd say this…" Spider-Man began angrily. "But Laura…you're a monster." Spidey growled making her wipe away a fake tear.
"You wound me." Talon said dryly before performing multiple flips as her adamantium claws tore up the ground.

-With the Avengers-
"I can't live in this world anymore!" Deadpool shouted as he jumped out the hole in the window.
"This can't be happening….I just found her…" Jubilee whispered in denial as Logan clenched his fists in anger.
"Damn it! She was supposed to be the one I didn't have to worry about." Logan growled. "She was supposed to be better than me!" Logan bit out as Jubilee's shoulders began to shake making him release a sigh. "Come here kid, let it out." Logan said as he wrapped and arm around Jubilee.
"Son of a bitch." Tony muttered angrily surprising the Captain slightly. He knew Tony had a soft spot for the young Avenger but he assumed most of it was just so he could make jabs at his leadership skills. "She already went through so much, things were finally looking up for her…and it's over."
"Some people aren't destined to lead peaceful lives." Natasha told him softly. "Not every good soul gets retribution."
"I know I know…but to see how well her life was becoming and then to see it torn away…it kind of stings." Tony said tiredly.
-Team Arachnophobia's Penthouse-
"Are you serious? I guess I won't get a chance to fight Chunny after all…" Juri said with a slight whine. "And she had gotten so strong too…"
"The weak fall, that's the natural order of things." Adriana said with a shrug as she lied back on the couch. Cammy remained silent as she stared at the unfolding events, but she glanced cautiously at an impassive Ero who was watching the screen boredly. However how tightly she was gripping the arm rest of the loveseat showed how displeased she truly was about the events.
"She wants to help so bad, but can't. She can't even truly show her displeasure without the other two growing suspicious." Cammy thought sadly before gazing back at the horrified expression on Chun-Li's face on the screen. "Come on Chun-Li you can get through this…"
-Emora-
*CRASH*
*BOOOM*
*BANG!*
"Oh…she's pissed." Viper muttered to Silver as they glanced back to where they heard their Empress rampaging.
"I'm sorry, is that Sonja or Mary?"
"At this point I couldn't even tell you." Viper said in exasperation. "They are becoming so alike that it's nearly impossible to tell who is who at times. Sometimes Sonja shows emotions and sometimes Mary acts like a cold hearted bitch." Crimson Viper shrugged before staring back at the screen in concern. "I just hope China girl can get out of this one…I want my rematch damn it."
"I'm sure Spider-Man has a plan to deal with this." Silver said confidently.
-With Team Amazing-
"We're screwed." Spider-Man realized before shooting web at Chun-Li and snatching her towards him before Talon could behead the fighter.
"What did I do…?" Chun-Li whispered in horror.
"Listen Chun-Li, it's not your fault. She used Laura as a shield you can't possibly be at fault for that one." Spider-Man tried to reassure her. "If you wanted to be guilty, fine trust me I know all about guilt, but please worry about it later because now we have to deal with an indestructible woman who knows our weaknesses."
"But how? I barely have any Chi left, that last attack was it for me." Chun-Li questioned making Spider-Man release a tired sigh.
"I don't know…but we have to do something if we lose then the entire world will be joining Laura." Spider-Man said as Talon began dashing at them. "Incoming!"
-Meanwhile:?-
BGM: The Ultimate Weapon-NieR Soundtrack
"W-where am I?" Laura questioned as she found herself floating on her back in a plane of white.
"Not important." A voice spoke up and Laura looked up to find a young woman that looked exactly like her only in her berserker state floating mere inches above her. The two ferals stared at each other as completely red eyes mixed with startled green irises. "It's time to complete the merge."
"Merge?" Laura questioned.
"The completion of the ultimate weapon." Another voice spoke up and Laura turned to see none other than Jean Grey walking towards her.
"J-jean?" Laura asked in confusion.
"I stayed with you in order to make your evolution process go painlessly although it did cost you control over your healing factor, for which I apologize." Jean said softly as Laura's eyes widened in understanding. "But you survived; like I knew you would…it's no wonder why Logan thinks so highly of you."
"Heh, of course. She's my equal." The other Laura smirked.
"But why? Why now?" Laura asked helplessly.
"Because in order for your mutation to complete you needed one last thing…death." Jean revealed. "Your mutation fused with the fragment of the Phoenix force that contained me. By dying you allowed my power to be released and finish everything that was left for your evolution to finish. Now only one thing is left for you to do."
"What…?" Laura questioned cautiously.
"You need to pull the trigger." The other Laura said seriously. "You can either die now or merge with me and never again feel the embrace of death."
"At first it might seem like an obvious choice…but could you truly give up your mortality and walk this earth forever?" Jean questioned calmly. "How far are you willing to go for those you love?" Laura looked between the two in shock at the decision she was forced to make. "I wouldn't think less of you if you choose to die. Death is your God given right as a mortal." Jean told her softly.
BGM: END
-With Team Amazing-
"*oof*" It's no use…" Chun-Li gasped out. "We used up all of our power and she has a virtually limitless supply of stamina…at this rate we'll die."
"I-if we g-give up we'll d-die anyway." Spider-Man said as he fell to his knees as blood spilled from multiple gashes over his body. His costume was in tatters and his mask was barely hanging on. Spider-Man ran forward and ducked under one of her slashes before grabbing her face. Clenching his hand tightly, Talon creamed in agony as a blinding pain erupted from her face. Spider-Man released his hand before she could cut it off and jumped back to look at his handiwork. Talon growled as a hand shaped scare began to heal from her face.
"Spider-Man?" Chun-Li questioned in confusion.
"There its official now, I've tried every move I had." Spider-Man gasped out. (LIAG helpful info: While Spider-Man may not have an acidic mark of Kaine-he can create a bloody reaction using his wall-crawling abilities. Obviously Spider-Man does not like using it because he hates branding people.)
"It's no use; you can't defy the food chain. You are prey, it's that simple." Talon smirked as she walked towards them calmly. "The only people who could have possibly stood a chance are dead." Talon said seriously, referring to Reaper and her younger self. The feral approached them when suddenly a sound caught her ears. "I-impossible."
BGM: Red Like Roses-Jeff Williams
*Ba-dump*
Spider-Man, Chun-Li, and Talon looked around in shock as it looked like the city's entire canine population approached the battlefield and began howling at the moon.
*Ba-dump*
*SNICKT*
"H-how are you still alive?" Talon-2099 questioned in horror as she turn around to see her younger self standing in the tattered remains of her costume as her head was bowed.
"There exist two types of people, the strong and the weak. For every person weaker than you, there is one that's stronger than you." The younger feral muttered as the canines continued to howl. "I am not all powerful and there will be fights that I will lose." The younger feral continued as her body began twitching as the sound of bones cracking filled the air.
"W-what ARE you!?" Talon-2099 roared in fear as she watched her younger counterpart's body grow before her very eyes.
"But I'll be damned if I lose to myself!" The younger feral roared as she raised her head as her body shifted until she appeared to be in her early twenties. The older Talon stepped back as two red eyes glared at her. They were red but not like how the older feral expected because unlike her's, only the younger mutant's irises were red.
HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!
The Unbreakable Talon!
"F-fine, then let's play runt!" Talon-2099 shouted as she rushed after her counterpart.
"I don't play with food." The younger mutant growled as she mimicked the other feral's actions.
*Clang!*
The two ferals glared at each other as their claws met each other and struggled for dominance.
"Too slow!" The older woman shouted as she flipped backwards and then lunged at the younger woman.
"Too predictable." The young feral muttered as she stepped back and kicked the other mutant in her side before releasing her foot claw.
"Gah!" Talon-2099 shouted as blood spilled from her mouth.
"Give up, you have already lost." Talon muttered as she glared at the older female before ramming her claws into her own chest and ripping them out viciously as the wounds healed nearly instantaneously.
"Don't get cocky!" Talon-2099 shouted as she spun around and released a kick at Talon as she ejected her right foot-claw. The younger feral grunted as she blocked the attack with her blood-soaked claws. Talon stepped back from the older feral and transformed her nails into claws which she used to dig into her stomach and cover hands in blood. "Whatever you are up to it won't work-*Gah*" The elder mutant was cut off as Talon flung blood into her eyes. Talon-2099 rubbed her eyes frantically and when she opened them she saw that Talon was no longer in front of her. "What-"
*SCTHIK*
Looking down, Talon-2099 grimaced as she saw two adamantium Talons sticking from her stomach.
"Bye. Bye." The younger mutant said coldly before ripping her claws through Talon-2099's side, taking a considerable amount of flesh with it.
BGM: END
"Tch. Lucky hit." The older feral muttered as she held the gaping wound on her side. Talon said nothing as she walked past the older feral and towards her teammates as the sun began to rise.
BGM: Call me Call me-Cowboy Bebop Ost
"Where are you going!? We have a fight to finish-*gakk*" Talon-2099 coughed up some blood as she watched in shock as her wound refused to heal. "W-what's going on!?"
"Reaper once told me..." Talon began without looking back. "By injecting our blood into someone else we can control their healing factor remotely. I'll admit it's hard to force yours back right now because it's so strong…but I really just need to keep the wound open until you bleed out." Talon explained as a cold bead of sweat went down the side of the older mutant's face. "You are weak. That's all that needs to be said."
"Hehe…" Talon-2099 began as tears fell down her eyes. "heheHAHAHAHA! So I finally die, and in such a glorious way!" Talon-2099 grinned as tears cascaded down her face as she slowly fell back and watched as the sky began to brighten. "This is death…?" Taon-2099 questioned with a grin. "…I'm free…I'm finally free!" Talon-2099 shouted as Talon made it to her stunned teammates.
"Hey…we made it." Talon said with a small smile before she found herself in a tight embrace from Spider-Man.
"Thank God you're alive…" Spider-Man whispered as she patted his back awkwardly. "I have never been prouder of you than I am right now." Spider-Man released her as she turned to a gaping Chun-Li.
"You look like you've seen a ghost." Talon said awkwardly making Chun-li glare at her. The woman promptly smacked her on the back of her head before pulling the mutant into a tight embrace as tears fell from her eyes.
"D-don't y-you ever do that again!" Chun-Li demanded making the woman nod her head. "Good, now let me get a good look at you." Chun-Li said as she released Talon and took a step back.
"Wow…did you do something to your hair?" Spidey asked incredulously as he stared at the physically twenty-two year old woman in front of him.
"Your eyes…" Chun-Li whispered as she looked at her crimson irises making the mutant shift uncomfortably.
"They won't change back, I hope that doesn't bother you two."
"Not at all!" Spider-Man said hastily making Chun-Li nod her head.
"…They suit you."
Hearing the sound of someone crawling towards them, they turned to see Talon-2099 dragging herself towards them as a blood trail followed her. Talon frowned and walked towards her with her team mates close behind.
"What do you want?" Talon questioned coldly as the older-feral rolled on to her back.
"You know it's funny…when you are about to die, its only then when your life flashes before your eyes when things become clear" Talon-2099 said with a tired smile. "My sins will no doubt follow me into the afterlife and nothing I can do will change what I have done…but please let me give you some advice to help you prevent your future from ending like mine."
"Why should we listen to you-"Chun-Li was cut off as Spider-Man raised a hand.
"What harm could it do? She's dying and won't gain anything from screwing us over." Spider-Man said not unreasonably making her cross her arms.
"Listen…Talon….soon you are going to have to make a difficult decision and at first there will only seem like two options…but listen to me there is always another choice." Talon-2099 said seriously before turning to Spider-Man. "Listen no matter how impossible the odds might seem you must never give up…not even against your tier ten opponent." Talon-2099 growled out before finally turning to Chun-Li. "And you…I'm sorry." The woman said simply before closing her eyes.
Talon-2099 died with a smile on her face in a pool of her own blood.

TEAM AMAZING WINS!
*Clap* *clap*
The team turned to see a smirking Rebuff walking towards them as she clapped her hands.
"Spectacular, no, Astonishing actually better yet an Amazing victory guys!" Rebuff grinned as they all glared at her making her cross her arms. "Oh don't give me that look."
"Your stupid game just killed billions of innocent lives!" Spider-Man growled out making the woman stare at him with half-lidded eyes.
"You honestly think Anansi would have let me blow up the planet?" Rebuff questioned slowly as if speaking to a toddler. Spider-Man froze at that making her smirk. "The cameras are off now so I'll tell you. You were never in any danger not your world or theirs this was just for publicity and to see how far you all are willing to go." Rebuff revealed to the shocked team. Rebuff knelt down and picked the deceased feral up. "Come on, your journey isn't about to end just yet…" Rebuff trailed off as the old mutant faded away.
"So the other Team Amazing…" Chun-Li began making Rebuff nod.
"They are all alive and hopefully this experience has made them better people. At least it made their Talon finally see the light." Rebuff said seriously before walking away. "I expect great things from you all." Rebuff said as she waved back and faded away.
"So now what?" Chun-Li questioned in confusion.
"Alright first were going to rest, then were going to Horizon where I can give Talon her final graduation present, then at the end of the week…I'm getting married." Spider-Man said as they nodded their heads. Suddenly Chun-Li and Talon froze and stared at each other in shock before turning back to Spider-Man.
"WHAT!?"
"Here we go…" Spider-Man groaned as he walked away with two very curious women following him asking questions.
-?-
Reaper opened her eyes to find herself in an old apartment room with Miguel and Chun-LI II.
"The hell am I?" Reaper muttered as she sat up while Chun-Li II glared at her fiercely.
"I don't know I woke up here after being knocked out by Spider-Man." Miguel muttered. "How the hell did I die?" Miguel questioned making Chun-Li II flinch slightly causing Reaper to release a sigh.
"Entirely my fault, when I tried to steal your body and swing away I lost my grip and you plummeted a few stories." Reaper lied smoothly making Chun-Li II turn to her in shock.
"Seriously!?" Miguel asked in disbelief making her shrug apologetically.
"Sorry. Anyway, I remember this place now…its where I-where Talon lived with Peter." Reaper mumbled to herself. "But why are we here? Shouldn't our world be destroyed?"
"It will be at the end of the day." A voice spoke up and they turned to see Rebuff leaning on a nearby wall.
"You…" Rebuff growled out making the announcer raise her hand.
"Listen you can sit here and growl at me or you can listen to find out what to do next." Rebuff interrupted bluntly. "You wanted to know the truth right? Your story isn't over." Rebuff stated coldly to the feral. "You know why you never saw your future self during the first tournament? It's because you are destined to be the greatest villain of all time…all of you actually."
"What?" Miguel questioned in horror making Rebuff glance towards him.
"If I were to ask you where you just came from what would you say?" Rebuff asked curiously making Chun-Li II glare at her.
"Isn't it obvious? The past." Chun-Li II bit out making Rebuff hum in thought.
"It does seem like that doesn't it? But if that was true how come Reaper doesn't remember fighting her past self?" Rebuff questioned curiously.
"Because you decided to drag me back for another tournament….right?" Reaper asked cautiously before frowning when Rebuff said nothing. "You bitch, what the hell did you do?"
"What if I told you…that instead of the past you came from the future?" Rebuff questioned innocently making the heroes look at her in shock.
"W-what?" Miguel was the first to get out.
"Right now it's New year's eve in the year 2099 on Earth-616." Rebuff told them. "There will be no year 2100 because of Alchemax's CEO."
"What did that bastard do?" Reaper asked before a thought hit her. "Project Clean Slate?"
"Bingo. He had built a door to the past, precisely the day the tournament began, in order to storm the past with his own army to change things how he wanted. Reaper here pretty much killed his army, so now he's going back by himself. The second he starts changing things however, this reality will cease to exist and the world will be destroyed due to his actions."
"So we have to take him out today so we can see the next year?" Spidey-2099 questioned as he placed his mask on.
"Not exactly…When I said you were all going to be the greatest villains, I meant it." Rebuff told them confusing them greatly. "If he goes back, you all die but if you destroy the door to the past the energy will continue to build up and effectively blow this universe back to the beginning of the tournament."
"Wait but if we do that what happens to this planet's current inhabitants?" Chun-Li II questioned cautiously.
"I'm not going to lie if you reset the universe I am going to have the Spider-God Anansi slightly change a few things during the tournament in order to change the outcome of it…not everyone in this time line will be reborn because of the changes…but a few will."
"Anansi? So that's where Team Enlightenment came from isn't it?" Reaper questioned with wide eyes. "I was confused when Team Amazing had a fight with them because I had not even heard of them before and with the technical difficulties during that match I couldn't tell what they were capable of."
"Team Enlightenment was a team of very powerful individuals whose sole purpose was to train Team Amazing so that they could win the tournament." Rebuff said as she nodded her head. "This is why you all lost, the Team amazing you all fault was levels stronger than what they should have been."
"That's why Hiibaa-sama had so many techniques that she shouldn't have developed until a few more decades had passed!" Chun-Li II realized in shock.
"Alright, let's regroup." Spidey-2099 spoke up suddenly. "So you are telling me we have to choose between letting the Alchemax CEO get away with what he's done and face certain annihilation or destroy slightly more than the past eight decades and give Earth a fighting chance."
"This is eerily similar to the tier ten fight." Reaper muttered making Rebuff nod.
"And you see how crappy your life turned out because of your team's choice, how about redeeming yourself and taking the risk?" Rebuff questioned making Reaper close her eyes.
"Let's go team." Reaper muttered making Rebuff grin as the other two looked at her in shock. "We just came from the future, that's more than enough proof that we succeed…I'm willing to gamble on the Team Amazing we fought."
"Wait one thing isn't making sense...if that was the future how come killing Kiden affected our existence?" Spidey-2099 questioned in confusion making Rebuff scratch the back of her head sheepishly.
"That was actually Anansi's plan; he said that Talon lacked a real motivation to win so we staged that. You weren't disappearing from existence I was just teleporting you to my bathroom…" rebuff revealed as they gaped at her. "…and when Reaper went to stab Kiden, Anansi simply froze time and moved her claws an inch to the right, putting her in a coma instead."
"My God." Reaper muttered as she realized how bad she got manipulated.
"Yes. You got Anansi'd." Rebuff nodded her head. "Now go forth my Villains and destroy reality!" Team Amazing-2099 shook their heads as Rebuff laughed manically before a thought occurred to her. "Oh and Reaper?" Rebuff began making said feral turn back to her. "Your Laura was defeated by the other Talon because she merged completely with her feral side…that means you will live and enjoy life just as much as Laura will." Rebuff said making the feral widen her eyes. "Now go on." Rebuff said with a soft smile making the feral grin.
"Spider-Man, meet us at the Alchemax HQ at ten." Reaper said making the man nod before running ahead of them. "Alright, what do you want?" Reaper asked Chun-Li II as they walked through the halls of the apartment building.
"Why did you cover for me?" The fighter questioned making Reaper sigh.
"I don't know what happened in your fight, but no one in Team Amazing would have killed Miguel. I'm sure you had your reasons but whatever they were you went through with it because you are a cold hearted bitch…and that's my fault." Reaper said softly. "I should have been the one to raise you, not Deadpool and for that I apologize." Reaper said softly making the fighter look at her in shock. "Well that and it doesn't take a genius to figure out you have a thing for the web-head…I'll admit it took me awhile to realize but you two were off together alone far too often." Reaper said with a smirk as she left a stunned Chun-Li II behind her.
-10:00 PM: Outside Alchemax HQ
BGM: See What I've Become- Zack Hemsey
"So this is it huh?" Kaine questioned as he looked at Team Amazing-2099 as Reaper nodded.
"Were all that's left of the rebellion and all that's left of Alchemax is within that building. Let's win this…for Aybel." Reaper said softly making him nod before all four of them ran into the building.
"Stop right there!" A guard shouted as Kaine extended his claws and took the man's head off as alarms began to ring loudly.
"Well this is inviting." Spider-Man said dryly as soldiers began to fill the room. "Take the elevator straight up, if I remember correctly the CEO should be on the top floor. I'll stay and deal with these assholes." The blue and red clad hero told them before dashing to the side, leaving a hologram, and charging the soldiers as his talons popped out. "One more thing Reaper if in the future you can somehow help me be Spider-Man again...that'd be great."
"I'm in the same boat as you. Hell I won't even remember this plus if I'm merged with Talon there's no telling how much control I have over my actions." Reaper said dryly as she ran to the elevator with Kaine
"Worth a shot!" Spidey-2099 shouted as he drop kicked another security guard. Reaper shook her head as she dove into the elevator with Kaine behind her.
"I think we're missing someone…" Kaine said dryly as he looked out the elevator door while bullets could be seen flying everywhere.
"Go on." Chun-Li II said as she delivered two palm thrusts in to two of the guards' chests. "This is as far as my path goes you two must end this."
"I'm not leaving both of you to fight all these soldiers alone!" Reaper growled out making her chuckle.
"We're gonna die anyway so just go on!" Chun-Li II shouted as she ducked under a punch from one of the soldiers. "Shoryuken!"
*CRACK*
"She just took his head off." Kaine pointed out as he watched the man's head fly from his shoulders due to the vicious uppercut.
*VROOOOOM*
*CRASH*
"WOOOHOOO!" A new voice shouted as a motorcycle crashed through the front entrance.
"S-sensei?" Chun-Li II stuttered out as the world's greatest red-clad mercenary hopped from the bike and began unleashing a storm of bullets from his guns.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!" Deadpool shouted. "Don't worry I won't leave my cute little apprentice and her boy toy alone. Go ahead!"
"Well you heard the man." Kaine growled out as he pressed a button making the elevator doors close. "Next stop the CEO, hope you're ready mom."
"Why do you insist on calling me that when you know damn well who I am?" Reaper drawled as she slid down to the ground making Kaine smirk.
"Because I'd rather be the bastard of a badass rebel than Alchemax's dog. Besides you were there just as much as she was…albeit you were locked up but still." Reaper shook her head at his logic as she watched the numbers on the elevator increase.
-A few minutes later-
*Ding*
"Seriously…?" Kaine questioned as they stepped out of the elevator only to find themselves in a large empty room with a door that had "CEO" on top of it on the opposite side. "Just a large open space? This is easier than I expected."
"Kaine?"
"Yes?"
"Shut up."
"Why! What's the worst that can happen?" Kaine questioned innocently and nearly as soon as he said that, ten figures fell from the ceiling. They were ten women who all looked identical with short blue hair and white skin-tight leather outfits.
"You are so grounded." Reaper growled out making the man flip her off.
"This smell…don't tell me they-"
"Cloned Felicia?" Reaper questioned as she looked at the black cat clones. "Yup."
"Oh that's just-"
"Terrifying?"
"No awesome…" Kaine grinned making Reaper snort. (LIAG Helpful Info: In Spider-Man Edge of Time the CEO did clone Felicia and had an army of the blue haired women.)
"Unbelievable." Reaper muttered before she felt herself being picked up. "What the hell are you doing!?" Reaper growled out as Kaine held her fireman style.
"I want to spend some alone time with these fine specimens and I can't have my mother cramping my style so…"
"Don't. you. Dare." Reaper growled making Kaine look at her innocently…a look that hadn't been genuine in decades.
"Fast-ball Special: Mother removal style!" Kaine roared as he used the super human strength he had inherited from his father to catapult the feral at the CEO's door. "Hey even though you won't remember, can you at least try to have sex with Spider-Man again? You can rape him if you have to!"
"KAINE!"
-11:00 PM: CEO's office-
"KAINE!"
*CRASH*
"Gonna kill that brat." Reaper growled out as she stood up. The clone glared at the back of a chair that was behind a large wooden desk.
"You know you're going to pay for that door right?" A feminine voice spoke up and Reaper watched as none other than Felicia turned around to smirk at her. Reaper looked at the woman with wide eyes as her face conveyed "What the fuck" perfectly.
"Y-you're the CEO? What the hell Felicia?" Reaper questioned making the former thief chuckle.
"Not at all." Felicia purred. "I just wanted to see the look on your face, now come on I'll take you to him." The former thief lifted up a lamp on the desk, revealing a red button and pressed it. Reaper frowned as the wall behind the platinum blonde opened up revealing a hidden elevator.
"Aren't you being a little too helpful? You should know why I'm here." Reaper drawled making Felicia give her a bitter smile.
"You're right which is why my help isn't free."
"Well what do you want?"
"Ever since this organization was formed I have been a slave to that man and I have been forced to things that I would never even fathom…selling out Jubilee and destroying your family is a good example." Felicia explained making Reaper clench her fist in anger. "This is why I want you to kill me and then take that elevator to the basement."
"What?"
"I'm so tired…" Felicia said weakly. "I just want this to end-*SCHTIK!*" Felicia widened her eyes when Reaper buried her claws into her stomach.
"Say no more…you've done enough." Reaper said softly making Felicia smile sadly as blood dribbled from her lips.
"T-Take that bastard out for me… only you can do it."
"I will." Reaper promised as she guided the woman down and set her on her back. "I promise." Reaper swore as she ripped out her claws and walked into the elevator. Reaper pressed the button to the basement and close her eyes as the doors shut.
"Who is this guy?" Reaper frowned as she felt the elevator shift. "He literally came out of nowhere and caused more deaths than any villain ever has."
-11:10 PM: Alchemax Basement-
*DING*
Walking out of the elevator Reaper frowned when she found herself in what looked like a large dark blue storage area. Deciding stealth would be the best option; Reaper stepped back and blended into the shadows before continuing on through the area.
BGM: END
-11:15 PM-
Reaper crawled behind a pillar and glanced around it, what she said forced her to force back a gasp. She couldn't see his face but a man with short brown hair, who had it gelled back and was wearing a black suit, was standing in front of the same exact door that was created by Horizon labs. Reapers hair blew wildly in the air as a blue vortex from within the door tried to suck up everything in the room.
"No use hiding Felicia I know you are back there…" The voice of the CEO came, sounding withered with age. "It was only a matter of time before you decided to turn on me, so come and let's end this." Reaper growled to herself as she was somehow detected. Deciding that the element of surprise was gone, Reaper stepped from behind the pillar and glared at the CEO.
"Sorry but I'm not your secretary." Reaper bit out causing the man to tense slightly. Time seemed to slow as the man turned around and stared blankly at Reaper. Reaper released a gasp as she stepped back and shook her head in denial. "N-no…h-how, why!?"
"It's been awhile project Reaper." The CEO better known as Peter Benjamin Parker stated boredly. "I must say I admire your ability to survive if anything."
"How are you alive!?" Reaper roared in confusion making him shrug.
"Hmm…well interesting story behind that actually." Peter drawled as he gazed at the clone.
-Flash Back Night of Peter's death-
"This is the end wall-crawler."
"Laura…I'm sorry." Was the last thought in Peter's mind as the man squeezed the trigger.
*CLICK*
"What!?"
"Out of ammo? That's some real bad luck you've got there." A voice spoke up and the man turned to see none other than Black Cat standing behind him shaking her head. The ex-thief quickly punched him in the face and used his gun to take out the other men.
-Flash Back: END-
"After that we hid out in Horizon labs where we decided our next course of action." Peter said with a shrug. "I developed my anti-aging drug and returned us to our prime although the side-effects were more than I expected." As he clenched his should-be-missing hand. (LIAG Fun Fact: Peter did create a drug that caused eternal youth in edge of time…man this guy is smart O_o)
"But why make Alchemax? Why kill the heroes?"
"This world was going to hell; the assault on my family proved that especially when I found out the leader of the Friends of Humanity was that clone of Ben." Peter began nonchalantly. "I had jokingly said that I wish I could change this world for the better and Felicia told me that it was impossible because no one could change the past…but she was wrong. We could and all we had to do was reconfigure some of Horizon's old technology. The energy required would take decades to build up and I knew I couldn't do it alone so I created Alchemax in order to form an army that could help me change the past."
"Do you know how many deaths you have caused?" Reaper asked in horror making Peter shake his head tiredly.
"I'll admit at first I was a bit guilty, but then I realized that if I were successful then none of the deaths would truly matter so I did what I had to do." Peter said as if his logic were infallible. "Now I'll admit you weren't my first choice, but I wouldn't mind if you came along with me in order to change the world for the greater good."
"Peter, you have no idea what you are about to do." Reaper began slowly. "You are messing with forces you don't understand…the second you step back into the past you will doom us all. Just stand back and let me destroy that damn door."
"Destroy the door? Do you have any idea how much energy has been stored up? If you destroy that door you will destroy the universe!" Peter shouted making her glare.
"No if I destroy the door I will reset the universe and hopefully give this planet a fighting chance to have a bright future! If you go back to the past you'll ruin everything and this planet will never see the year 2100!"
"If I go back I'll save the present!"
"If you go back you'll destroy the future!" Reaper growled out making the man clench his fists in anger. "We've had our chance and we failed." Reaper said softly. "I saw glimpse of the "Future" and it was bright." Reaper revealed making Peter's eyes widen. "Team Amazing will get a second chance, we can try again but only if you stand down and let me do what needs to be done."
"So manipulate the past to save the present or destroy the present for the future?" The CEO questioned with narrowed eyes. "Why should I listen to you?"
"I know your brain is telling you to go back, but I believe that the old Peter is still somewhere in there and he knows what you are doing isn't right." Reaper pleaded. "And if you don't listen to your heart what is your Spider-sense telling you?"
"Both choices are setting it off." Peter muttered. "So in the end it just comes down to my brain versus your word…this choice is too big for us, if you truly believe your words then fight me and destroy the door yourself!" Peter shouted making the feral grit her teeth.
"Then so be it."
*SNICKT*
"This is how it was meant to end. You versus me." Peter whispered. "My final trial is taking down my greatest creation, the ultimate hero."
"It didn't have to end this way!" Reaper roared as she charged for making him shake his head sadly.
"But it did, it was always meant to end this way." Peter said as he bent down and leapt high in the air just as Reaper's claws missed him. Peter's body kept ascending until it disappeared into the shadows at the top of the room.
"What is he up too…?" Reaper wondered as she narrowed her green eyes, which promptly widened when eight crimson lights appeared from the shadows.
*CRANG*
"WHAT!" Reaper thought in shock as a large bulky figure fell from the ceiling.
*THOOOM*
BGM: I Hate Everything About You- Three Days Grace
"We never did manage to remove Octavius' entire mind from me, but I have to admit he had some good ideas." Peter drawled as he hung from a large black robotic spider via a black metal vest that had eight red lights on it. "Meet the Spider-bot 2.0." (LIAG helpful info: This was the CEO's main weapon against Miguel in Edge of Time.)
"What happened to you Peter!? Are that unconfident in your abilities that you have to use weapons?" Reaper taunted making him smirk.
"Unconfident? No, careful? Yes." Peter stated before his vest charge and fired a large crimson web ball at Reaper.
"Damn." Reaper muttered as she dived to the side just as the ball missed her.
*BOOM*
Reaper glared at the explosion before dashing at Peter on all fours and slamming her claws into one of the legs only for nothing to happen.
"This Robot is covered in adamantium your claws won't help you!" Peter shouted before the robotic spider's abdomen opened up and released a barrage of missiles at Reaper who growled and dashed away as the missiles landed behind her barely missing her every time. "Running won't help!" Peter shouted as crimson lens suddenly appeared over his right eye. Peter smirked as the cross hairs in the lens locked onto the running Reaper. "You can't escape!" Peter shouted as two barrels appeared from the vest.
*THWIP*
Two large lines of web shot from the canon and connected to the ground on both sides of Reaper.
"You missed!" Reaper shouted making him chuckle.
"Wasn't aiming for you!" Peter called out as the Spider-bot suddenly shot forward towards Reaper at blinding speeds.
-Slow Mo-
Reaper widened her eyes as the hunk of metal prepared to slam in to her when something suddenly caught her attention. She narrowed her eyes as she noticed that connecting the black pieces of adamantium together on each leg were silver cables.
"I wonder…" Reaper thought as she ran towards the hunk of metal that was charging her. Just before the spider collided into her, Reaper ducked and slashed one of the silver joints. The feral grinned as her talons passed through the cable before barrel rolling to the side and slashing the opposite leg. Using her momentum, Reaper back flipped and released her right foot claw before jamming it into another leg.
"What?" Peter questioned in shock as Reaper ran forward and slashed a fourth leg. Growling to himself Peter leapt into the sky as his front four legs began to spark uncontrollably and began releasing a barrage of crimson web balls at Reaper.
-Slow Mo End-
"His suit can't keep up with his Spider-sense!" Reaper realized as she rolled to the side to dodge more of the web- balls. "Looks like you trained me a little too well!" Reaper taunted.
"Looks like it." Peter grumbled as he landed the force of the landing shattered the damaged legs causing the suit to clumsily try to stay balanced on its remaining legs.
"Even after all of this…" Reaper began as she gazed into the CEO's eyes while she fired a web-line at the ceiling. "What is it about him that keeps me in love with him?" Reaper frowned as she web-swung over the former hero and landed on the Spider-bot's abdomen and began slashing at the joints keeping the remaining legs connected the spider.
"Stand down Reaper!" Peter shouted as the abdomen opened up under Reaper causing her to come face to face with a group of missile heads. "These won't miss!" Peter shouted while Reaper back flipped off of him and began running as the missiles followed her.
"It's so sad…Ben's clone was harder than him, and he truly doesn't realize how much weaker he is with that suit!" Reaper thought incredulously as she dashed towards the time-door as the missiles followed her. "They won't miss? Well I sure as hell hope not!" Reaper called back as she neared the portal making Peter's eyes widen in realization and horror.
"No Stop! Do you have any Idea what you are about to do!?" Peter shouted frantically.
BGM: END
BGM: End Title- Cloud Atlas
"These missiles chase me like a never ending game of cat and mouse." Reaper thought as she leapt on top of the door and turned around with a grin. "I never understood the concept of that game because I always wondered…" Reaper thought as she stretched out her hands widely. "What happens if the mouse gets tired of running?"
*BOOOOM!*
-Slow Mo-
"Ah now I remember." Reaper thought as she looked at Peter's horrified ace as flames licked her skin while the vortex began to spiral out of control. "His ability to show emotion even with his face covered is what began Laura's infatuation…an infatuation that would later grow into a love so powerful that it even overtook me. A love that would last longer than even I would."
"NOOOOOO!" Peter roared.
"Even with my body in this excruciating pain I can't help but wonder…are mortals destined to make the same mistakes over and over? Not even Peter could escape doing that as he used others in a vain attempt to complete his own goals, even with his good intentions he still ended up like the rest of my enemies…dead." Reaper thought as the CEO's suit finally exploded from the damage she inflicted. "We failed the first time but I saw a brief glimpse of the future we're headed to and it was beautiful." Reaper thought as a tear slid down her face.
*BOOOM*
"And it's because of that beautiful future that these will be my final words to you. Not something cliché such as "I love you" or "I miss you" but rather…" Reaper gazed into the horrified Peter's eyes and just before the flames obscured them from each other's view she told him.
-Slow-Mo End-
"I'll see you there."
-11:45 PM with Spider-Man 2099, Chun-Li II, and Deadpool-
*KABOOOOM!*
"THIS IS IT! If you have anything to get off your chest now is the time to do it!" Deadpool roared. "Here I go! Even though she was insane and scared the hell out of me in ways I never want to understand…Wanda was kind of hot!" Deadpool shouted making his apprentice shake her head at his antics.
"Oh to hell with it, one or both of us might not even be born again." Chun-Li II said suddenly as she grabbed Spider-Man 2099 by his shirt, confusing him, before she ripped off his mask.
"What-*MMPH!*" Miguel was cut off as he found himself in a passionate lip-lock with his team mate. "Oh screw it." Was his final thought before embracing her tightly and bending her down as he returned the kiss with determination as they were engulfed by the flames.
-11: 58 PM: Manhattan-
Kaine stood up tiredly in the remains of the destroyed building as the sky was filled with a swirling blue vortex that suddenly shrunk into a small blue ball of energy that fired off into the direction of the Statue of liberty. Taking a sniff, Kaine turned to see the red-eyed form of his mother standing behind him.
"Reaper did it huh?" Kaine questioned making the woman nod. Kaine grinned and slowly released his claws. "This is where the story ends mother." Kaine said simply as claws extend from his fingers while flames danced around the two ferals.
"You expect us to fight to the death in mere minutes?" Talon questioned dryly as she gazed at her son, but released her claws as well.
"First blood?" Kaine offered making the older feral hum in thought.
"Fine." And with that the two mutants charged each other.
-Meanwhile: Statue of liberty
A figure held out its hand as the ball of energy landed in it and slowly faded away.
"I finally have the power to reset this damned universe. Time to get it right this time." Rebuff thought as she held her cell phone to her ear.
"I'm leaving Earth 616 under your Jurisdiction now." A voice spoke from over the phone making the woman smirk.
"Gotcha' boss."
"Oh and Rebuff…"
"Yes Rebuke?"
"This is your first mission…please don't fuck this up for me. Just make sure Spider-man is ready!" The voice said tiredly as if he still couldn't believe he was letting the woman go forward with this mission.
"Of course who do you think I am? Get Spidey ready and anything else is collateral damage."
"What! Wait-"
*Click*
"Let's get this show on the road." The woman grinned as her body shined a vibrant blue, and shooting her arm forward a blue orb shot towards the city engulfing the entire city in a bright light. "Get your team together Anansi, I'm taking a break. Time travel hurts my head and there is no way my boss can ever find out I just did this." Rebuff released a sigh and faded away.
-A day later: Outside of an abandoned Warehouse-
Ameterasu released a howl causing the young mutant weapon known as X-23 to suddenly materialize on top of the warehouse as the wolf hid behind a nearby dumpster. The teen looked around frantically before the wolf howled again and calmed the girl's nerves. X-23 frowned the sound of fighting reached her ears before stealthily entering the building.
-Inside the Warehouse-
X-23 frowned further in confusion when a small pain hit her heart as she looked down to see Spider-Man fighting some strange Asian woman. X-23 widened her eyes when the woman prepared to release some strange pink energy. She may not have been fond of the web-head but he was still an ally. So without any hesitation X-23 dove down with her claws ready…
"KIKOSHO!"
"Bye. By-oof!"
…and was promptly kicked away by the man she attempted to save.
BGM: END
-Horizon Labs: Months later: The day after Team Amazing 2099's defeat-
"So she's going through with this?" Tony questioned as Peter helped Talon into a tank and began to place needles into her carefully.
"That's what Spider-Man said." Peter told the billionaire with a shrug as a few of the other Avengers watched through a glass window. "I gotta admit when you told us you were donating such a large amount of money for this project I gotta admit I was surprised."
"Yeah well anything for my little Avenger." Tony said with a shrug before smirking at the mutant's nude form. "Although she's not so little anymore; I was wondering when she'd stop being jailbait." Tony chuckled making the scientist shake his head while Laura glared at him. "Spidey said you were the most trustworthy guy at this lab and now I see why..." Tony began before leaning to the man's ear. "Web-head."
"I'm sorry I don't know what you are talking about." Peter said seriously making the man smirk while Laura narrowed her eyes.
"It's okay I won't tell anyone, honestly the only reason I even figured it out was because of how careful you were being with Laura despite knowing of her healing abilities." Tony said as he shrugged. "Like I said it's your secret, not mine although whenever you do decide to go public please allow me to rub Cap's face in it first, okay?" Seeing no way out Peter nodded with a sigh making the billionaire smirk. "Alright this is your show not mine. I'll be behind the safety glass incase the tank blows up." And with the Tony promptly bolted from the room.
"Sorry, if it weren't for me-"
"Eh get over it; it's worth anyway." Peter said with a shrug making the feral nod.
"Are you sure this is a good idea…especially after fighting my future self?"
"Laura listen, you've come too far for your insecurities to start coming back. I'm doing this because I trust you not to end up like that other Talon, especially after you took her out." Peter told her firmly before closing the tank. "This will easily be the most painful thing you have ever experience…in fact I think this is why Logan is so tolerant to pain because I can't think of anything worse than this so brace yourself. One more thing how did your body react to its new attachment?"
"Daken was close enough to my DNA it seemed, as his claw managed to replace the blade in my right foot successfully." Laura said dryly as she ejected said Murmasa blade from her foot.
"Great, alright here it goes, it'll be a little tricky as we have to avoid coating your claws by mistake." Peter said before flipping the switch.
-With the heroes-
"I gotta ask; where in the world did the vibranium come from?" Captain America questioned making Black Widow sigh.
"Wakanda agreed to trade a few ingots to Emora which Sonja gratefully gave to Spider-Man." Natasha said making Hawkeye whistle.
"I wonder how he's on such good terms with your empress." The archer questioned making Chun-Li smirk. A knowing smirk, that made a chill run down Natasha's spine.
"Well considering Spider-Man is marrying two members of its council that's to be expected." Chun-Li shrugged making the heroes gape at her.
"Seriously Natasha? I had no idea Silver Sablinova was in to that kind of thing. Viper maybe, she looks like she knows how to party." Tony piped up and the assassin refused to do anything but glare at Chun-Li.
"Oh no, Crimson Viper isn't in the marriage." Chun-Li said as she tried to repress a chuckle…
…And failed horribly once she saw the looks on their faces.
"AAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" Chun-Li fell down as she laughed her ass off while Natasha clenched her fists angrily. As the heroes gaped at Natasha, Tony looked as if he had come to a decision and dragged Steve out of the room.
"Alright that's it. Spider-Man is joining the Illuminati." Tony said seriously making the Captain raise an eyebrow.
"Are you sure? What would he even represent?" The Captain questioned curiously with a small frown.
WHAT TIME IS IT? TIME FOR A LIAG BREAKDOWN!
(LIAG BREAK DOWN: Alright, although it was briefly mentioned let me explain this organization a little bit more.

Captain America: Represents the American ideal
(BREAK DOWN: END)
"He can represent the Street-levelers, Sacrifice & Lust." Tony said confusing the super-soldier.
"I understand the first two…but lust?" Steve asked skeptically.
"Come on the guy gets nearly as much if not more action than me." Tony frowned obviously upset about that. "And I called Dr. Strange after that fight last night when I heard Spider-Man complain that his tantric energy levels were low."
"I remember that." Steve said as he nodded his head. "What is tantric energy?"
"Sex-energy." Tony said seriously and after a while when it became apparent that he was not bullshitting, Steve felt his right eye twitch. "That's how his power increased so dramatically, apparently sex makes Spider people-can't think of another name- more powerful! Can you comprehend how jealous I am right now?" Tony bit out making the soldier sigh.
"Fine we'll ask him to represent Street-levels and Sacrifice later-"
"-And lust." Tony amended making the Captain sigh.
"And Lust." Steve corrected. "Later." Before Tony could continue an ear-splitting scream erupted and they both rushed back into the previous room where the heroes watched as Laura thrashed violently in the tank. They watched silently as the countdown reached zero and Laura fell limp. After a bit a long beep was heard as Laura flat-lined making Logan snort causing the heroes to turn to him in horror.
"Give her a few seconds; I warned her and web-head earlier today about this." Logan revealed as the heroes turned back to the downed feral.

Laura frowned as she found herself in a familiar plane of white before a flash of brown caught her eye. Looking forward she saw a short brown haired girl sitting with her knees to her chest.
"Huh, wasn't expecting you to show up here." The girl said and turned to stare at Laura. Red eyes met blue as the two gazed quietly at each other. Sighing, Laura walked forward and sat next to the girl.
"Did you do something to your hair, Kiden?" Laura questioned as the teen smirked and twirled her hair a bit.
"I woke up and my dye was gone…what about you?" Kiden questioned making Laura smile softly.
"Growth spurt." Laura said dryly and for a bit the two sat in a comfortable silence. "You're an idiot you know that right?"
"My teachers said that a lot back in the day. Tell me; are you still in the tournament? Sorry stupid question since you're here and all."
"Temporary visit." Laura shrugged. "As for your question yes I am still in the tournament which isn't so good for you."
"Oh?"
*SNICKT*
"Yes, because when I get you up I am going to hurt you…badly." Laura said as she brandished her talons making the teen scoot to the side nervously.
"Oh."
"Yeah, "oh" what were you thinking?" Laura questioned as she turned to her eldest friend.
"I was thinking…that if I couldn't have you, in you know that way, I'd at least give you a reason to get through this tournament. You don't realize it but when you truly want to do something, you succeed."
"And how do you know whether or not you could or couldn't have me?" Laura challenged making Kiden chuckle.
"Oh come on Laura I'm just some homeless kid that barely managed to kick her drug addiction, but you? You're a hero-"
"-Only because of you." Laura interrupted before standing up and turning away. "Everything I am today is solely because of you. Of course you can't have what you want if you never even make the attempt that's just logic."
"Laura…" Kiden said softly as she gazed up at her friend who began to fade away.
"We…" Laura began as she put emphasis on the word. "…don't have to just be a dream. If I have learned anything, it's that with enough effort some dreams can become reality. I'll see you soon Kiden." Laura finished as she disappeared leaving a stunned mutant behind her.
BGM: END
-Horizon Labs-
*SNICKT*
*CRASH*
"RAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Talon roared as she stood in the destroyed remains of the tank as the needles ripped from her body.
*Thump*
"Laura…?" Peter questioned making the feral glance back at him before standing up.
"I'm alive." The feral said making Peter nod his head.
"Good because you still need to get some clothes, we at Horizon labs didn't agree to provide you with those." Peter said seriously making her smirk.
To be continued next Season.
1. Hibaa-sama: Great Grandmother ( I think)
: Divine Retribution (I think)
3. Jigoku Kyaku: Hell Kick (I think)
We are 50% done with this story so what does that mean? It means you sit your ass down because 50% isn't 100% and I still have a story to tell! Chun-Li was the first to ascend and then Talon followed, but what about good old Spider-Man? This is his story after all so how about I give you a small glimpse of the Untouchable Spider-Man Arc?
"Oh this is going to kick so much ass!"
You already know it!
People jokingly say that I should write for Marvel. Soon it will be time to see if I am really capable of it.
First Chun-Li Became UNDEFEATABLE…
"Tengoku…"Chun-Li began as her hair fell down while Mysterio ran past her.
"Your funeral babe!" Mysterio said as he continued to run.
"Move you worm!" Octavius demanded as he brought the Red Hulks hands together and prepared to smash her.
"…Kyaku!"
*FLASH*
"What-"
*Thump*
Now no one who bore witness to that could tell you what the hell had just transpired, but they could all agree on a few things.
There was a flash of light
And now Chun-Li was standing on the Hulk's back as her hair blew in the wind while the Kanji for
"Heaven" Burned in gold behind her as Sakura petals fell to the ground around her.
Then against all odds Talon became UNBREAKABLE…
*SNICKT*
*CRASH*
"RAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Talon roared as she stood in the destroyed remains of the tank as the needles were ripped from her body.
Now it's finally time for The Amazing Spider-Man to be…
UNTOUCHABLE!
BGM: Pioneers of the apocalypse-Cliff Lin
Peter will fall.
"I'm trapped in the dying body of Octavius! How the hell do you expect me to feel when I can do nothing as Talon and Chun-Li risk becoming fugitives for freeing me?" Peter roared at Anansi
"Young hatchling, this is when it all begins. Your life until this point has been just the tutorial in a game which you do not understand. But be aware that as long as you have faith in the bonds you've made you will prevail. Believe in those whose hearts you have touched in you will prevail!" Anansi shouted passionately. "The people you've touched and who they've touched you are in the middle of this spider-Web of life!"
But can he rise?
"I'm done Cassandra. It's time I took matters in my own hands. Don't you dare think I'd risk my daughter's safety for your goals! I'm helping Peter…" Julia muttered weakly from her bed before closing her eyes.
"Stop!
Three words will be muttered that will turn New York into a warzone.
"Calling all Spiders!" Julia roared as her eyes shined bright red with power.
"Do you know what you've done!?" Madame Web asked angrily.
"Exactly what she was supposed to as a protector." Anansi said with a smirk as he appeared in the room. "All according to plan."
Ultimate Spider-Man! (Miles Morales)
"Just go away!" The young Spider-Man roared as he sent Captain America flying with a vicious punch. "I've been meaning to do that for soooo long!"
Agent Venom! (Flash Thompson)
"You still want to fight me father!?"
"Nope. But you are mistaken if you think you get to walk away after this." Flash roared at the crimson symbiote.
Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)
"Even if you think I'm being a traitor, you must understand I must do the right thing." Jessica said sadly as she clenched her fists and charged at Hawkeye. "I have to save him!"
Scarlet Spider (Kaine)
"I had to come all the way from Houston to clean up Pete's mess? No rest for the wicked!" Kaine shouted as he ducked under an axe formed from sand.
"Don't get your ass killed; I still need you to progress through the tournament!" Daken growled out before running down the street.
Spider-Girl (Anya Corazon)
"Oh Spider-Man owes me big for this…" Anya muttered before landing a drop kick on Iron-Man's head. "Catch me if you can tin-head!"
Spider-Girl (Mayday parker)
"If you can't trust your eyes or your brain, then use your heart! You know something isn't right!" Spider-Girl roared as she glared at Sonja with cold blue eyes as her brown hair was matted down to her face with sweat and blood.
Spider-Man 2099!
"Sure as hell not in Kansas anymore." Miguel muttered as he stared at the room of Spider-themed heroes.
The Queen
"You will kneel to me." Adriana said coldly. "You dare try to impersonate my mate?"
Ero!
I believe there's a hero in all of us…
"If this is it…if this is truly the last time I can see the clear blue sky, please let me leave something to be remembered for." Ero said as she glanced to her wide-eyed team mates.
Scarlet Spider!
"B-ben?" Peter questioned as tears fell from eyes of Octavius' body. He just got a thumbs up in return.
Not all of the heroes will survive….
The bitterest of rivals will team up.
"Ya want me tah fight two hulks wit ya? Ya do realize ah am not that strong!" Rogue shouted to Captain Marvel with wide eyes. Carol rolled her eyes and pressed her lips to Rogue's.
"You are now, let's do this!"
To fight a common enemy
"Romulus…." Wolverine growled out at the ancient feral.
"You don't honestly think you can beat me alone, stand down and take me to my bride." The grey haired man growled when suddenly two figures landed next to Wolverine, making the Canadian's eyes widen.
"You aren't alone." Talon growled as her eyes shine brighter
"Not yet anyway." Daken smirked as his eyes bled red. Wolverine smirked at the slightly startled Romulus.
"Then let's do this!"
Feelings will surface…
"You are the strongest man I know, you do not deserve to die like this. If you don't survive the week…"Chun-Li began as she forced back some tears. "You need to know that I-"
Only one can be at the center of the web.
The Untouchable Spider-Man!
"Haha you just got Deadpool'd!"
BGM: END
Coming soon.
NEXT CHAPTER: Big Time!
Preview:
The members of Team Amazing sat around Peter's kitchen table in silence as they face their greatest problem to date.
"We're officially broke." Peter muttered making the women bow their heads.
