22. Act I

Disclaimer: I don't own Spider-Man and after this arc I won't know if that's a good thing or bad thing.

Quick thing for ANY possible NieR fans out there Phantom's voice sounds like Grimoire Weiss.

Listen I'm going to say this now, I'm doing this arc in parts (Obviously) so if you have any complaints wait until it's DONE before posting them because I know there is going to be at least five things that will piss you off that will be resolved by the end of the arc.

Also remember everyone I am doing my best to research these characters so that they won't be too OOC. I am NOT a comic buff, let me repeat NOT a comic buff, I wish I was but I'm not. I'm just a Spider-Man fan who got tired of all of the mundane Spidey fics. Hopefully if I make some of the comic plot points easily accessible through this fic I can inspire a few people to spice up the fandom a bit.

My comic collection consists of Spider-Man # 680-699, Superior Spider-Man # 1-9 (And yes 9 will be the last issue I buy. IMO Kaine is a better dark Spider-Man) Scarlet Spider # 1 and 17 (Don't ask why it's so weird I don't even know. NYX and A hard cover copy of AvX. See? Pretty sad 'collection' so bear with me T-T.

I'm not sure if this fic is even in the top twenty on this site for Spidey but damn it it's going to be in the top ten when I finish with it!

Also quick shoutout to Arsao Tome for his story rejection letters. If you are a fan of my series and want a quick laugh read chapter 3 of that story.

"You should call this the Untouchable Spidey and Friends. Cuz' the amount of power ups you're throwing out is insane. Think I can get one?"

We'll see.

Okay before and after each act I'll put up the progress levels for each character of Team Amazing.

Chun-Li: 80% (WTF!? Will be explained later in the arc)

Talon: 27%

Spider-Man: 0.00000000000000000000000002 (See accepting his Spider side did help….a bit)

Chapter 20: TUSM: Act One: Calm Before the Storm

-Queen's New York-

Talon stood in disbelief as she regained control over her body only to find her right arm stabbed through Chun-Li's chest as the bodies of fallen mutants surrounded them.

"O-Oh my G-god….." Jubilee stuttered in disbelief while tears poured from her eyes as she stared at the horrified form of her mate.

"C-Chun-Li W-what have I done?" Talon questioned with wide fearful eyes as her teammate smiled up at her as blood poured from her mouth.

"G-glad…t-to h-have…you back*Cough*" Chun-Li forced out before glancing down at her teammate's arm, which was ripped through her chest, with a grimace. Grunting, Chun-Li used her remaining arm to rip the limb out of her before stumbling back.

"Stop! You're making the damage worse, I can heal you." Talon said frantically only for Chun-Li to shake her head sadly before coughing up more blood.

"N-no…not even you can fix this one." Chun-li said sadly before gazing up at the cloudy sky and widening her eyes in disbelief. "I-I actually s-see him…" Chun-Li whispered as she slowly swayed backwards. "F-father…"

*THUD*

Chun-Li Died with a smile on her face.

"AHHHHHHHH!" Laura screamed in despair at her actions.

-Spider-Temple: Days Earlier-

Taran had just finished praying at the Great Weaver's alter when a tired looking Felicia walked in. The younger woman narrowed her eyes as she noticed the exhausted that the former thief was in.

"Did I not advise you to get plenty of rest?" Taran questioned calmly forcing Felicia to repress a shudder. She had quickly learned that while the high-priestess normally seemed friendly to a fault she could be quite terrifying when one of the other priestesses or her harmed their health.

"Sorry, but I can't sleep." Felicia sighed as she sat down. "I can't stop thinking about how much of a screw up of a parent I'm going to be. Can a child really be happy with a thief for a parent? To this day I still have to fight the urge to take anything that sparkles."

"I believe the answer to your question…lies within a mirror does it not?" Taran questioned simply making Felicia widen her eyes. "You said that your father was a thief, but that didn't change how much you loved him after you found out did it? Besides you have grown up splendidly and successfully. Just do your best."

"How are you taking becoming a parent so well?" The platinum blond asked curiously gaining a smile from the dark haired young woman.

"You misunderstand, I am terrified beyond belief." Taran revealed with a smile. "But I know that as my son grows up I will grow with him as an individual. The Weaver always has a plan, and if my child is part of it then I know I must succeed in raising him." Taran said proudly making Felicia shake her head at the younger woman's faith.

"I just hope my kid turns out alright."

"I'm sure it will."

-Spider-Temple: Year 2099-

"Pity, only enough power to go back after the switch has already been made." Phantom drawled as he opened a pocket watch and checked the time. Closing the watch, Phantom picked up a white circular device and released a sigh. "No use in wasting more time."

"Don't forget your cane old man." A voice piped up and Phantom turned to see a tanned man with black hair and brown eyes who appeared to be in his mid-twenties floating behind him in a white robe.

"Funny Ananase, you know you were much quieter back when you were alive. Please enlighten me as to why you cannot die like a normal person again? Hmmm?"

"Is that anyway to speak to your older brother?" The man drawled as he tossed a black narrow rod, that had a red gem with a spider trapped inside, at phantom. "Besides death is only the beginning."

"You are mere months my senior. You shall receive no respect from me." Phantom stated as he caught his cane.

"I would be surprised if I did." Ananase muttered before frowning slightly as Phantom picked up a syringe. "You are aware that is the last of the infinity formula you have in your possession?" (LIAG Helpful Info: A formula that was developed by Professor Sternberg it greatly slows the aging rate. It must be administered every year or else the user would rapidly age and died. Nick Fury is one of the people who need it to live.)

"Of course." Phantom said before slamming the syringe into the ground and shattering it.

"Brother! Why would you do that!?"

"You said yourself that once this watch reaches twelve, my life will end." Phantom began nonchalantly as he used the white device to open a portal. "Fear is the strongest driving force known to man. With it, I know that I shall perform far more greatly than I normally would have. Now…until we meet again brother." Phantom waved as he stepped through the portal.

"You're insane!"

"And loving every moment of it!" Phantom chuckled before disappearing.

-New York: Current Time: With Spider-Man-

Spider-Man landed on top of a building with a satchel as a figure stood in front of him.

"Alright, I'm here what do you want to talk to me about?" Spider-Man questioned carefully eliciting a sigh from the person.

"To start over." Came the tired response as Ero glanced back at him as her black coat billowed in the wind on the back of her new trench coat was a crimson NY, obviously for the city of New York.

"What?" Spidey questioned sounding perplexed.

"I want us to be civil, if only for the important people in our lives." Ero said softly as she turned to face him, shocking him when he noticed that his former enemy had a look of genuine sadness.

"What are you talking about Ero?"

"Listen, I was waiting for you to do it on your own, but things have changed." Ero said calmly. "You need to tell May the truth about yourself."

"What! Are you insane? Do you know how much danger that will put her in-"

"Terminus." Ero interrupted him calmly. "Terminus attacked and could have shot down her plane. She's in danger already whether you like it or not."

"So why would you want to add my enemies on to the list of threats she already has to face!?"

"Damn, was I really this annoying?" Ero muttered with a frown as she shook her head. "Listen she already knows about both you and me. That little background information that the tournament provided already made it painfully obvious for her even though no names were used." Seeing that he was about to say something, Ero raised a hand. "I've already talked to her on top of it. Don't you get it? She knows just stop hurting the woman and let her hear it from your mouth!"

"You're serious right now aren't you?" Spidey said with a tone of slight disbelief. "Wait what do you mean that you have talked to her already?"

"Really?" Ero drawled sarcastically. "I was an enemy that had all of your memories, did you really think I was not going to attack her-"Ero barely got the last word out before Spider-Man was in front of her nearly instantly with his palmed aimed straight for her face. Almost boredly, Ero actually rolled her eyes before grabbing his hand with her own. "Really, is that anyway to treat your big sister?" Ero questioned calmly before widening her eyes slightly when she felt her hand burning. "Wow, you pulled off a mark of Kaine….I'm actually proud of you." Ero said with genuine pride as she ruffled Peter's hair from over his mask.

"Big Sister?" Peter questioned angrily as he ripped his hand free and stared at her carefully.

"Well May sees me as a niece." Ero shrugged. "Love that woman, besides you are acting like a very foolish little brother right now." Ero deadpanned as she poked him hardly on his forehead. "She's alive so obviously I didn't do it. In fact she's the reason I changed sides. Now please calm down." Spider-Man noted the hint of pleading in her voice and took a deep breath, he was about to respond when she suddenly sighed and grabbed the thin air in front of her confusing the hell out of Spider-Man.

"What are you-"

"Hello Kaine." Ero drawled as the red and black form of the Scarlet Spider materialized in front of her, revealing that she was grabbing his outstretched arm that was inches from her face. "Why do you all go for the face?"

"Easiest way to end a fight." Kaine drawled as Ero smirked and pushed him back next to Spider-Man.

"Kaine? Why are you here?" Peter questioned in confusion as his clone frowned visibly from beneath his mask.

"I heard rumors about strange events happening in New York recently, something about a tournament, so I came to pay a visit."

"Well….now that we're all here, let's talk." Ero drawled as the two men crossed their arms.

~Meanwhile: Avenger's Tower: Roof-

Logan stood with his arms crossed as he watched the black bird land in front of him. After a moment or two, Rogue walked out with something small that was wrapped in a white cloth clenched in her hand.

"How's it goin'?" Logan greeted the woman getting a smile in return.

"Aight' but mind tellin' me why ah am giving this to ya?" Rogue questioned in confusion as she tossed the object to Logan. "More importantly… why was it there of all places?"

"Needed to find some place no one would think to look." Logan shrugged. "As for why I need it, let's just say I'm giving it as a present to someone who could really use it." Logan trailed off as he pointed at a large screen handing from a building that was showing live footage of Talon taking down bank robbers.

"Ah still can't believe how different Laura is." Rogue said as she shook her head. "She actually became the poster child of the mutant race. I wonder how Scott feels bout that one."

"Speaking of Scooter, do you have that other thing I asked for?" Logan questioned suddenly making Rogue hand him a disk with a frown.

"Ya, seriously gonna have Stark send that to him?" Rogue asked looking torn between disgusted and amused.

"Of course, Scooter's a dick." Logan said sagely. Rogue was going to respond when the door to the roof opened up.

"Hey Logan, we ever going to finish that card game-"Carol stopped instantly as she saw Rogue on the roof.

"Uhh…hey." Rogue said awkwardly with a wave as Carol glared at her viciously.

"Yeah, I was on my way back down now actually." Logan intervened getting a stiff nod from the blonde. Carol said nothing as she walked back into the tower and slammed the door behind her with enough force to shatter it.

"Ah guess she doesn't like me." Rogue said dryly making Logan shake his head.

"Nah you're wrong." Logan said seriously making the younger mutant stare at him in confusion. "She hates you." The feral corrected with a chuckle making the woman face-palm.

-Meanwhile with: Chun-Li-

Chun-Li stood in a black tank top and a pair of black athletic shorts that had her name written in pink with one hand on her hip as she stared down at her fallen opponent.

"And the winner is Chun-Li!" The referee shouted. "She will advance to the finals next week!" He announced making the crowd who sat outside of the ring cheer, which only increased when Chun-Li raised a bandaged fist.

-10 minutes later-

"Phenomenal as always, dear." Joan said as the woman finished putting her equipment in a duffle bag. "You might want to train more though, just in case, your next opponent has a win streak as good as yours." Joan advised as they exited the changing room making Chun-Li chuckle.

"I don't think I have to worry Joan, I doubt there is a normal fighter in this entire world that would be able to beat me."

"Which is why I suggest you train." Joan deadpanned confusing the woman. "Your next opponent was unusual to say the least so I looked him up. Imagine my surprise when there were countless Youtube videos with him as a character from Street Fighter." Joan trailed off as Chun-Li widened her eyes in understanding.

"So who is he?"

"You tell me, he's right there." The agent said bluntly as she pointed down the hall where a man was approaching them. The man stopped dead in his tracks and looked at Chun-Li in shock.

"[C-Chun-Li? You're my next opponent?]" The man questioned in flawless Japanese.

"[It would appear so, looks like we have some catching up to do…]" Chun-Li responded with a smile. ["Ryu."]

-Meanwhile with Talon-

After Talon had dealt with the would-be bank robbers she flew away on her bike in search of more crimes to stop.

"Today seems pretty average." Talon thought as she made a right turn only to widen her eyes in disbelief when a familiar scent reached her nose. "Impossible." The feral muttered before putting her bike on auto pilot and leaping off of it. "He's supposed to be dead!"

["…now that I think about it does anyone really die anymore?"]

"This is getting ridiculous." Talon thought tiredly as Jubilees words rung through her head.

*THOOOM!*

*SNICKT!*

"Show yourself!" Talon growled out as she released her talons as soon as she landed in front of a dark alley way.

"You've gotten big…tube freak." A voice spoke up and Talon narrowed her eyes further as none other than Daken stepped out from the shadows.

"And it seems you have barely changed at all, bastard." Talon stated coldly.

"Now is that anyway to talk to your big brother?" Daken questioned curiously.

"We may have Logan's blood, but it takes more than that to be siblings." Talon growled as she crouched down making Daken chuckle as he ejected his own bone claws. "Now, how are you alive and what do you want?"

"That would be telling, now wouldn't it?" Daken questioned with a feral grin. "As for what I want, I want my claw back." (LIAG Fun Fact: To my knowledge there hasn't been any explanation of how Daken came back to life the first time…but he did. I say first because he apparently gets resurrected as a horseman of death in Age of Ultron and I don't want anyone getting confused.)

"You'll have to pry it from my cold dead corpse, and unlike you I don't die so easily." Talon growled as she leapt on the side of a building and pounced on a grinning Daken.

"Can't you remember the last times we fought?" Daken questioned as he dodged her attack. "I am stronger than you!" Daken growled as he swung both sets of his claws at Talon's now exposed back only for the woman to turn around suddenly with a glare.

*SHING*

"Damn!" The older feral gritted out as all of his slaws were sliced through.

"That's the difference between you and me!" Talon roared as she slammed her shoulder into the larger man send him crashing to the ground due to her vibranium skeleton. "You spend your time dwelling in the darkness of the past while I overcome it and become stronger for it!" Talon growled as she kicked out her left foot.

*SNICKT*

Daken glared as the clone's left foot claw rested on the side of his neck.

"Welcome to the future Daken…" Talon said coldly. "…a brighter future, where I am not the same as I was before."

"Don't make me laugh!" Daken growled out as he pushed her foot away from him and flipped to his feet and retracted his now broken claws. "Don't you dare look down on me as if you are my superior!" The man shouted as he delivered a powerful blow to her face only to widen his eyes when she didn't even flinch.

"The gap between us on the food chain is indescribable in length." Talon said simply as she back handed the man sending him stumbling back. "You're not even worth staining my talons…" Talon began as she sheathed her blades. "…much less your precious claw." Daken glared at her as her nails lengthened a bit into sharp claws.

"You…" Daken began with a glare as the much younger feral looked at him as if he were some sort of child.

"I am the alpha here, and it's time I taught you humility." Talon drawled as she lunged at him. "What's going on with me? I know I can beat him but why am I feeling so damned superior…why am I being so condescending?" Talon wondered in confusion as a small smirk graced her lips when she felt her claws slash Daken's chest. "Why…" Talon thought as she heard Daken grunt in pain. "Does this feel so perfect?"

"Something's not right." Daken realized as he released his now healed claws. "And I can tell by the look in her eyes that she realizes it as well. Trigger Scent? No. She wouldn't have such a level of control. Maybe I can calm her down with my pheromones and then take back my claw."

*Sniff*

Talon frowned as she smelt Daken's scent change, no doubt a sign of him using his pheromones. Talon couldn't repress her smirk as an image of Morrigan flashed through her mind.

"Sorry, but I've overcome much stronger." Talon informed Daken, silently thanking Logan, before charging at him on all fours.

"Well damn." Daken thought dryly as he charged her. "Oh well, at least you'll be a fun opponent this time!"

-Meanwhile: With Spider-Man-

"Only you get into this kind of mess Parker." Kaine muttered as he crossed his arms after he was finally brought up to date on what had been happening for the past few months.

"Tell me about it." Ero muttered with a slight twitch. "At least his death allowed me my freedom from his terrible luck."

"In my defense it was a pretty heroic death." Spidey grumbled feeling a little put off about being.

"*Snort* yeah the second time." Ero drawled as placed a hand to her hip. "The first time when you got completely massacred by Morlun was bullshit though."

"Well now if your stories are true…" Kaine trailed off as he gestured to Ero. "Then she has a point then, you might as well just come clean with May. She knows everything anyway and May apparently sees her as the 'Older Sister'. Like I said I'm just taking both of your stories as truth seeing as I don't have a Spider-Sense anymore."

"Fine, I'll tell May even though it apparently won't mean anything anymore and-hey wait a minute, why are you the older one?" Spidey questioned as he crossed his arms at Ero.

"Body is formed before conscious thought, bitch." Ero said bluntly. "Here's a vague idea of how the pecking order goes. It's you, then the dirt I was buried in, the worms in the dirt that tried to eat me, Ben, Kaine, and then me."

"Wow, you are really pissed at me dying aren't you?" Spidey questioned in wonder.

"Hell yeah." Ero bit out with a small glare. "I'll get over it eventually and then you can move up to be right under me in the order but now I believe that I am allowed to vent."

"She has a point." Kaine piped up.

"Oh screw you." Spidey groaned in exasperation.

"Although, why exactly am I above Ben?" Kaine questioned as he turned to his apparent sister.

"You're alive."

"Ah."

Spider-Man was going to respond when he heard something in his satchel vibrate. Opening the bag and pulling out what looked like a smart phone; spider-Man pressed a button causing a light red hologram of Robyn to pop out. The holographic woman was nude, which inwardly Spidey believed was Shelley's way of trolling him, yet at the same time had what appeared to be circuits covering her body.

["Mr. Spider-Man! Trouble!"] Robyn said with a large smile that slightly unnerved them.

"The hell…" Both Kaine and Ero muttered as they stared at the possibly rampant AI.

"Give me a rundown Robyn."

["Well currently, Ms. Talon is in a fight against what appears to be a feral mutant."]

"What? Is it Logan again?" Spidey questioned with a visible grimace making Robyn tilt her head curiously.

["Nope, according to the New York Security cameras, Logan is currently exiting the Avengers tower as we speak. According to the SHIELD databases, she is currently fighting the one known as Daken, although he is listed as deceased, the man is a 100% match to all of the pictures recordings that SHIELD has of him."]

"Did that thing just hack SHIELD?" Ero questioned in disbelief as she pointed at the strange little AI.

["Hacked for justice!"] Robyn cheered. ["And thing is a terrible name, it's Robyn Hood with a Y for Freedom!"]

"There isn't a Y in freedom." Kaine deadpanned making the AI point to him with a wink.

["And don't you forget it!"]

"Damn, you walked right in to that one." Ero snickered as Kaine mumbled something about idiotic robot girls as he crossed his arms.

"Focus, Robyn." Spidey said seriously making the AI scratch her head sheepishly.

["Sorry Mr. Spider-Man! Anyway that dastardly foe is not why I called you; the real issue is at Shadowland, within the Heart of New York which is in Talon's territory. Since she's busy right now it's up to you to stop them with the fist of Justice!] (LIAG Helpful Info: Shadowland is Kingpin's base of operations within the heart of New York City.)

"Shadowland huh? What's Kingpin up to?" Spidey questioned as Robyn raised her hands creating a large picture of a strange device that made the Spider-siblings pale….well Ero paled anyway."

["Kingpin has enlisted the help of the Horizon scientist Tiberius Stone to recreate the Spider-Jammer and the help of the current Hobgoblin. They are currently discussing a plan to steal some sort of brief case."]

"Okay this is bullshit, how come you couldn't get an AI to stop criminals beforehand when I was your body." Ero muttered in annoyance as Spidey just waved her off.

"Well since my first body ditched me, I decided to get a side-kick." Spider-Man said sarcastically making the blonde roll her eyes.

["That's not all Mr. Spider-Man! I am currently looking at what appears to be Roderick Kingsley, the original Hobgoblin, in a hotel room a few miles east of Shadowland. He's planning to take back his mantle by force!"]

"Damn it." Spider-Man cursed to himself. "Tell me what do you feel about a preemptive strike?"

["That would be the best course of action to deliver justice, Mr. Spider-Man! I recommend bringing back up!"]

"Got it Robyn, get combat ready." Spider-Man ordered getting an enthusiastic nod from the AI before it disappeared. Ero could feel Spider-Man's smirk as he reached into the satchel and pulled out a single silver gauntlet that he fastened around his right wrist. "I have to thank you Ero."

"Huh? What did I do?"

"You decided to embrace your Spider-side, which now I realize wasn't such a bad idea, but because of that you forgot one thing."

"Oh and what's that?" Ero questioned skeptically.

"That you are only half Spider." Spider-Man said seriously making her eyes widen. "There's no excuse for neglecting the human side, so as you trained your body I split my time up between training both my body and my mind." Spider-Man revealed before reaching into the satchel and pulling out two ear pieces which he tossed to Kaine and Ero. "You heard Robyn; I need back up, put those in and follow me. We have criminals to stop."

"Well I'll be damned." Ero smirked as she placed the device in her ear. "You actually just re-earned my respect."

"I needed something to do anyway." Kaine shrugged a as he reached under his mask to place the device in.

["Alright Mr. Spider-Man, Mr. Kaine, and Ms. Ero; let's show the world Justice!"] Robyn's voice said from the devices as all three heroes leapt from the roof and formed devil horns.

-Meanwhile: Home of Julia Carpenter-

"Can I just say one more time how much I hate Colorado?" Rachel carpenter asked her mother skeptically making the woman kneel and give her a hug with a sad smile.

"I know, I know but look on the Brightside you get to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa." Julia said with a smile making her daughter shake her head at her mother. "That and I can get you the heck away from this city. I don't know what's going on but it might not be here when you get back." Jessica thought to herself as the horrifying images kept replaying in her head.

"Mom?" Rachel questioned in concern.

"Sorry honey got lost in thought for a moment." Julia said with a slight wince as the images got stronger. "Come on; let's get you ready you have to go to the bus station."

-Meanwhile: East River—

A small golden Octobot climbed out of the water.

-With Logan-

Logan was probably about two blocks away from the Avenger's Tower when he felt a powerful presence enter the city. A familiar presence, that made his claws erupt from his fists by pure instinct alone.

"Grr…Romulus…." Logan gritted out as he quickly ran in the direction of the presence. "He's calling me to him; he wants me to find him…" Logan thought furiously. "Well I'll make sure he regrets it."

-With Talon vs. Daken-

"Don't you see how futile fighting me is?" Talon questioned as she glanced at her right hand where blood dripped from all five of her claws. "You fighting me is almost as pathetic as your hate for Logan."

"Shut up!" Daken growled out angrily a blood slid down his face. "You know nothing-"

"Oh really?" Talon drawled. "Poor little Daken ripped from his mother's womb by Romulus. Brainwashed by the same man to believe that his father actually killed his mother-"

"Shut up!" Daken growled as he lunged at Talon only to get back handed back into the ground.

"You're so weak its saddening." Talon growled out as she glared down at him. "Where was I? Oh yeah but you know it, you know that Logan isn't the one to blame…it's Romulus. So why do you hate Logan? You know you have to be the one individual that confuses me the most. We both had mothers, but unlike you I knew mine I loved mine. And after a while of letting me be used as a weapon she grew to love me to; and I killed her. You on the other hand? You're just a pathetic waste of space trying to find his place in the world."

"Enough!" Daken roared only for Talon to dig her claws into his throat.

"Who…" Talon began with a cold whisper sounding honestly confused. "Do you think you're talking too?" Talon question curiously as she ripped his throat out. "It's not even fun fighting you anymore." Talon muttered as she released her left foot claw. "It's like kicking a puppy." She punctuated each of the last three words with a power kick to his side with her claw. "Logan is no more responsible for your mother's death than I am. Why don't you take revenge out on me? Probably for the same reason you still hate Logan. You're weak. You're too weak to beat Logan let alone myself or Romulus and you know this."

*Sniff*

"Ah, speak of the devil…Romulus is here." Talon smirked as she found herself repressing a shudder of excitement. "Damn it. It's him! He's making my instincts take over; I can feel his presence as Alpha." Talon shook her head as she glanced down at Alpha. "Tell you what pup; Romulus is here, I know you can feel him. Think about what I've said and realize how pathetic you really are and if you have any bit dignity try to take revenge on the one who actually deserves to die. You're a grown man, act like it."

"Y-you…" Daken muttered as his throat finally began healing.

"Romulus is powerful, but ask yourself. Would you rather have a meaningful death, letting him know that you are no longer his puppet, or continue living this meaningless thing you call a life." Talon questioned as she turned away. "He's a few blocks away so I believe I'll walk, give you a chance to catch up, after all he's on my to-kill list for creating the weapon X project in the first place." Indeed after her failed attempt to kill Logan all those weeks ago he clued her in on who was behind Weapon X in the first place. "The real question is what will I do when I see him?" Talon wondered with a frown. Her mind, heart, and soul knew she had to kill him…but her body…Talon shook her head furiously. "Damn."

-Mean a few minutes Later: Shadowland-

Landing on the roof of the crime lord's base of operations, Spider-Man turned to his two companions as they landed on both sides of him.

"Alright Robyn says that they are just now preparing to leave so we have to act as quick as possible." Spider-Man began as he turned to Ero. "You're the fastest so you go in and dismantle the Spider-Jammer as quickly as possible." Spidey said getting a nod from the woman before turning to Kaine. "You use the stealth suit to sneak in and get the drop on Hob Goblin, I'll take out Kingpin and then we can wipe out his cronies and go deal with the other goblin."

"Understood." Kaine said with a nod before Ero stood up with a smirk and raised her right foot high in the air as she grabbed something from her waist. Spidey gaped from behind his mask as he stared at the familiar golden object.

"Hey is that a-"

"I always wanted do this." Ero smirked before slamming her foot into the roof, creating a large hole, and jumping in to it. "Freeze NYPD!"

"Oh my God just ran in!" Spidey groaned as he followed her. "What's the point of making plans if no one ever listens!?"

"I like her already." Kaine chuckled as he followed Spider-Man.

BGM: 21 jumps street main theme- Rye Rye & Esthero

-Shadow Land-

"Freeze NYPD!" A voice shouted out making Kingpin look up in shock as a blonde woman fell from the ceiling and outstretched an arm towards the Spider-Jammer.

*THWIP!*

The criminals watched in shock as five web-lines erupted from her finger tips and connect with the device. With a mighty pull she yanked it from its position in front of Tiberius Stone and swung it behind her.

"Kaine!" Ero shouted as the device flew towards him.

"On it!" The Scarlet Spider shouted as he slammed a powerful fist into it, causing it to explode.

"How the hell did you join the NYPD!?" Spidey asked in disbelief as he drop-kicked Kingpin sending the powerful crime boss stumbling back.

"Let's just say it wasn't hard when Adriana introduced the insect gene into the Chief. I was tired of stealing for money so I got a job." Ero answered as she leapt off a wall and on to Spider-Man's back before leaping forward again a burying her fist into Kingpin's stomach. "Don't worry I made sure he was freed."

"If everyone besides me apparently have been watching this tournament wouldn't the other cops think you're a villain?" Kaine questioned curiously as he found himself knocking out most of the assembled goblin gang with only one punch.

"I'll admit that it has been awkward as hell…" Ero began as she slid between Kingpin's legs and began to charge the Hobgoblin. "…especially with my new partner." Ero sighed as she found herself dodging the hobgoblin's bombs. As this was going on, Spider-Man finally knocked out Kingpin and webbed him up

"You're partner?-Oh for the love of…don't tell me it's-"

"Carlie? Yup. That's our luck for ya." Ero drawled as flipped through the air and attempted to elbow drop the goblin, only for him to side step at the last moment and hop on his glider. (LIAG Fun Fact: Carlie Cooper is Peter's ex-girlfriend that is a cop for the NYPD. She broke up with him for lying about being Spider-Man but has kept his secret.)

"Damn that has to be awkward." Spider-Man muttered as he, Ero and Kaine ran out of the building and after the goblin.

"Hold on a second." Kaine interrupted as he ran back into the building and webbed up a shell-shocked Tiberius to a wall. "Okay let's go."

"Good Job." Ero praised as all three of the Spider-heroes leapt into the air and web-swung at a now terrified Hobgoblin.

"What the hell!? I haven't even done anything yet!" The insane villain screeched as he tried to fly away.

"Anyone else find this oddly satisfying?" Spider-Man questioned as he watched the villain fly away in terror.

"I'll admit it Parker this is almost fun." The Scarlet Spider said as he swung along-side his siblings.

"We have to do this more often, it's really quite therapeutic." Ero smirked.

"Oh you haven't seen anything yet!" Spider-Man said as he swung ahead of them just as the Hobgoblin turned around.

"Eat this you freaks!" The man shouted as threw three bombs at them.

~Web Rush! ~

Time slowed as Spider-Man leapt of his web-line and outstretched his right arm. Extending his middle and index fingers while cocking back his thumb, Spider-Man made his hand resemble a gun. Aiming his 'Gun' at the incoming bombs, he smirked from beneath his mask.

*BAM!*

*BAM!*

*BAM!*

Three silver pellets erupted from the gauntlet and collided with each of the bombs with pin-point accuracy. The bombs exploded with a combination of fire and webbing.

~Web-Rush: End~

"Impact Webbing!?" Kaine and Ero questioned Spider-Man in varying degrees of shock.

"Yup! Even though he's not here, Ben is still fighting alongside us right now in our hearts!" Spider-Man said proudly getting a smirk from Ero.

"Heh, well alright." Kaine chuckled before frowning when out of nowhere a second Hobgoblin appeared next to the one they were pursuing.

"You are not worthy of that mask!" The new Hobgoblin shouted angrily. "How dare you run away from the likes of them in terror while using my persona!"

"Well there's Roderick." Ero grumbled as she clenched her fists. "Those two are just Osborns in the making…they have to be stopped today. We may never get a chance like this again."

"Agreed." Kaine piped up making Spider-Man glance back at them in shock.

"What? We can't just outright murder them-"

"-You can't." Ero interrupted with a smirk. "But I'm a cop and one of them just through a bomb at me with the intent to kill, the law is on my side." Ero said as Kaine smirked from underneath his mask. "Come on Roderick…" Ero muttered just loud enough for her siblings to hear. "Attack me, make my fucking day…"

"You don't run from these freaks you fight them!" Roderick shouted angrily as he threw a bomb at them.

"There is a God!" Ero cheered before grinning as leapt over the bomb and began swinging at them with renewed vigor as her eyes bled red. With the web-lines that came from her finger tips and her toes, Ero had perfect mid-air mobility allowing her to change direction at a moment's notice.

BGM: END

-Meanwhile: With Logan-

"So you're the first one to make it to me?" Romulus drawled as he stared at a glaring Logan. "Shame I was hoping it was my mate."

"Mate?" Logan questioned in confusion as he popped out his claws.

"The one you call Talon." Romulus smirked making Wolverine widen his eyes. "To think that such a powerful lupine would be formed indirectly because of my actions. It is fate that she will be mine." Romulus said with a smirk. "To think I spent so much time trying to create the strongest Lupines, and a creature like her appears out of nowhere."

"You stay away from Laura!" Wolverine roared as leapt at the ancient feral only for said feral to step to the side and grab him by his neck.

"You haven't learned yet have you? You can't beat me!" Romulus roared as he threw Logan to the edge of the roof. Wolverine rolled to his feet and snarled at the man.

"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 shined brighter

"Not yet anyway." Daken smirked as his eyes bled red.

"What? Daken? Laura?" Wolverine questioned as he stared at his son and clone-daughter.

"So you did see the light huh mutt?" Talon questioned as she glanced at a glaring Daken.

"Don't talk down to me." Daken growled out. "Once I take care of him, you're next. Obviously something is wrong with you and you know it."

"You'll make anything a target to find some meaning in your worthless life won't you?" Talon drawled condescendingly.

"Laura, are you okay?" Logan questioned with a frown as he noticed how cold she sounded. She was never the friendliest person, but this was just an entirely new level.

"I have never felt better." Talon answered with a smirk as Romulus smiled to himself sinisterly.

"No, Romulus is doing something to her." Daken explained to his father.

"What the hell did you do Romulus!?" Wolverine roared making the man chuckle.

"Nothing at all." Romulus answered with a smirk…and what shocked Daken and Wolverine was the fact that he seemed to be telling the truth. "Don't you feel my presence? I am the alpha of all Lupines; deep down you both can feel it. That's how you were able to find me. You two feel your positions threatened while she…" Romulus began as he gestured towards a smirking Talon who began to walk towards him. "…she wants to rightfully take her position by my side."

"Damn it, Laura snap out of it!" Logan growled. "Can't you see that he's the reason behind everything!? The death of Itsu…" Wolverine began making Daken clench his fist tightly at the mention of his mother. "…weapon X, and consequently your creation and the death of your own mother! What the hell is wrong with you!?"

"Don't you think I know that?" Talon questioned boredly as she stood next to Romulus. "That's all in the past however, and all we can do is move forward and strive for a better future. I won't linger so much on past transgressions; in fact, he wasn't even directly involved in what happened to me. That was all caused by power hungry humans."

"At least u can see the light my dear." Romulus smirked getting a nod from her. Logan growled in frustration because even though he could her words he could tell by the slight trembling in her eyes that for the first time in long time she was completely…

…terrified.

"Damn…this isn't looking good." Daken growled out as he popped his claws out. "If it's just us against both of them, then as much as I hate to admit it, we can't win."

"No you can't." Romulus drawled. "Now leave and I'll let both of you live, her instincts have already decided what she has chosen."

"That's it!" Logan realized with wide eyes before glaring at the female lupine. "Laura! He's right your instincts might have chosen but what about your heart!?" Logan roared making her eyes widen almost unnoticeably. "If you are alright with this, then I'll leave right now and let you live your life as you choose."

"Heh. You're smarter than I thought." Romulus said with a smirk.

"The fuck are you doing!?" Daken questioned in confusion before he noticed the smirk making its way to Logan's lips.

"But before you go…" Logan began as he held out a hand. "Throw away that damned ring. Give me proof to show to Jubilee that you have made your choice."

"W-what?" Talon questioned, cursing the fact that her voice had cracked slightly. "Don't you dare throw it away!" Talon shouted in her mind as she found herself staring at her hand. Talon raised a trembling hand as she grabbed the ring preparing to rip it off of her hand when her hand suddenly froze.

"What's taking you so long? Throw it away so that we can be on our way." Romulus growled out as Talon bowed her head causing her hair to cover her eyes.

-Talon's Mind Scape-

Talon found herself floating in a plain of white as she continued to hold her ring finger as a hand materialized over her wrist.

"I won't let you throw everything away because you can't control your damned urges!" A bodiless voice shouted.

"Let go!" Talon growled as the hand slowly grew into a feminine arm. "Don't you realize what you'll do if you stop me!?"

"No! This is why I hated you! You're nothing but a liability to my existence!" The voice shouted from the mouth of the forming body. "I will stop you, even if I have to break myself all over again to stop you!" The voice roared as the body finished growing, revealing itself to be a green eyed Talon.

"You Fool! You shattered us! Now we can't co-exist. How do you expect me to live now? I refuse be locked up again.

"At first I felt sorry for you." The green eyed Talon said with a frown. "But now I realize that you're nothing but another enemy, someone who stands in the way of my existence, my happiness…and you don't deserve to fucking live you monster." Talon said coldly as her feral side widened her eyes visibly hurt by the statement.

"Fine. Let's see how you like being locked up!" The red-eyed Talon roared as she charged her counterpart. "You know you can't beat me alone!" The green eyed Talon said nothing as she simply turned away from her feral side.

"I don't even need to raise a finger because unlike you, I am not alone." Before her feral side could even comment she found herself flying away do to an incredibly powerful blow to the stomach that sent her flying back.

"W-what?" The red-eyed Laura questioned as she saw the image of a blonde Kiden standing with her fist raised. "What's going on-"

*THWIP*

Her mouth was suddenly webbed shut as the form of Spider-Man silently cocooned her in webbing.

"Goodbye." Laura said to her feral side as she faded away.

"*MMMPH*"

*SCHLIK*

The red eyed Talon looked down in shock as a Katana ripped through her heart. She looked back to see a glaring Jubilee standing behind her.

-Real World-

"Laura…" Logan muttered as he stared at Talon's unmoving figure.

BGM: Ain't That Funny- MadWorld OST

"Just give it to me!" Romulus growled as he forcefully turned her around only to come face to face with the cold green eyes of Talon. "What-"

*SNICKT!*

*SCHTICK!"

Talon gritted her teeth almost to the point of cracking them as she ripped her talons through his chest.

"No one makes me lose control!" Talon roared angrily.

"Looks like she finally snapped out of it!" Daken smirked as he ran at Romulus.Wolverine smirked at the slightly startled Romulus.

"Then let's do this!" Wolverine roared as he followed his son. Both father and son plunged their claws into Romulus' chest before the ancient feral knocked them away; Talon leapt back just in time to avoid being stabbed by Romulus's claws.

"Laura! Catch!" Wolverine shouted as he threw the 'present' he had for her at the female feral. Catching it with a frown, Talon widened her eyes as she stared at the metallic form of Daken's second Muramasa claw.

"Damn! Peter only installed one sheath in my body because he never anticipated finding the second claw. This will be more detrimental than helpful." Talon thought angrily.

"I won't let you!" Romulus roared as he saw the Muramasa claw. The ancient feral charged her viciously only for her to release her right foot claw and slashed him from his left hip to his right shoulder making him yell in pain. Sliding in between his legs, Talon quickly ran towards Daken.

"Daken!" Talon shouted as she handed him the blade making his eyes widen. "Take this; it'll be best with you."

"You sure you won't regret this?" Daken questioned with a vicious smirk as he grabbed his claw.

"Consider it an apology for earlier." Talon said dryly. "Besides last I checked this was your kill."

"Damn straight!" Daken growled as he ripped out the claws that was in his left wrist and jammed the Muramasa blade in. "Hold him off for a bit as I fix this thing." Talon nodded and dashed at Romulus who was currently fighting viciously with Logan.

"Berserker Barrage!" Wolverine roared as he began to deliver a startling amount of vicious slashes.

"Weapon X: Prime!" Talon shouted as she stood next to him and began slashing with deadly precision. Poor Romulus didn't know what to do as he watched his blood erupt from his body. Just as Logan stopped his assault, Talon rolled under him and shot forward with her right foot claw slashing through Romulus' right shoulder as she shot behind him.

"ENOUGH!" Romulus roared as his wound's, minus those caused by the Muramasa blade, began to heal. "I am alpha! I will not be-"He was cut off as he found his arms yanked roughly behind him. Glancing back he saw that Talon had a web-line connected to each of the limbs as her foot-claws stabbed into the ground as an anchor.

"Daken!" Talon roared, and Romulus turned around only to watch in horror as Daken landed on his shoulders with his Muramasa blade shining brightly in the sunlight from his left wrist.

"This is for my mother you son of a bitch!" Daken growled as he buried the claw through Romulus' eye and directly into his brain.

BGM: END

"GAHHHH!" Romulus roared as Daken twisted the blade until his body finally went limp. Daken flipped from his body as it landed with a thud. Daken growled viciously and began to stab the dead body repeatedly as tears flowed from his eyes.

"Daken…" Talon said softly as she watched the enraged feral continue to decimate the body. She looked up when she felt a hand on her shoulder; she turned around to see Logan shaking his head sadly.

"Let him get it all out." Logan said tiredly getting a nod from the woman. Talon closed her eyes as she released a long breath.

Weapon X

The Murder of Wolverine's love Itsu

Experiment X-23

All things that spun from the actions on one vile man and it was finally over. It was a bittersweet moment for the three ferals. But maybe now they could finally get another chance…a chance to wake up each day with a bright smile knowing that the cause of their suffering was gone. Talon suddenly widened her eyes as she felt a strange feeling of power surge through her. Logan turned to her in shock as Daken continued to stab Romulus.

"W-what?" Talon questioned in shock as she stared at her hands.

"Laura…you feel like Romulus." Logan muttered with wide eyes as she looked up at him in disbelief.

"I know…but why…" Talon questioned in confusion as she felt her muscles tighten.

"To be honest I never really got all of this lupine crap Romulus had been spouting out but…" Logan trailed off with a frown as she looked up towards him in askance. "Well if Romulus was the 'alpha' of all of 'us' and now he's dead…wouldn't his position fall to the one who was closest to his level?" Talon frowned as she understood where he was going.

"All of the suffering he's caused because of this position…because he felt like it was his god given right to control us…" Talon muttered as she clenched her fists. "Never again."

"Laura?"

"Never again will I let something like what happened to us happen to anyone else…" Talon growled out making Logan pause before smirking to himself.

"I guess this makes it official then, huh kid?" Logan began as she looked at him confusion. "Fine, take it already, you can have my title." Logan said making Talon's eyes grow as wide as saucers. Logan shook his head in amusement at her expression before ruffling her hair getting a familiar grimace to adorn her face. "To be honest though, you probably had it for a while now." Talon said nothing as she turned stare at Daken with Logan. The two ferals stood in a comfortable silence before Talon spoke again.

"Logan…how did you know that the ring could free me?" Talon question softly as she turned to Logan. Logan simply smiled at her.

"I know my girls." Logan said making Talon shake her head as she watched Daken weep after exhausting himself.

"Correction. You know your children." Talon muttered getting a wide-eyed look from Logan. "There's no point in skating over this anymore. I don't know how you feel about it and frankly I don't care, but you're my father….and I am proud of it. We had already established it a long time ago, but now I can say it and feel as though it means something. "

"Laura…" Logan muttered as the younger feral walked towards Daken and sat down. He watched in shock as she simply placed an armed around the older man as they stared at Romulus' body. Wolverine stared into the blue sky and widened his eyes in as for an instant he could have sworn he saw the smiling face of Itsu. "Maybe…it isn't too late." Logan thought as he walked towards…his children.

- Earlier: With Spider-Man-

"Just a little closer…" Ero thought as she swung only a few feet away from the goblins.

! Spider-Sense: In a few seconds both of them are going to try to hit you with bombs, prepare to dodge!

Ero frowned as she saw a slight glimpse into the future at her possible demise and immediately ducked underneath the bombs.

"Damn." Ero thought with a glare. "Funny how you tried to looked down upon the new Hobgoblin when you are just as much of a little bitch!" Ero shouted before smirking as she obviously hit a chord as Roderick turned his glider around.

"What did you say!?" Roderick roared as Phil stopped next to him to stare at him in shock.

"That idiot can try to fight them if he wants but I am out of here. " Phil thought finally as he turned to leave.

*BZZZT*

*BZZT*

"What!?" Both of the goblins questioned in confusion as their gliders began sparking wildly.

"Hack complete!" Spider-Man spoke up as he swung towards them with his right arm outstretched towards them. "Good job Robyn, Shelley wasn't kidding when she said she made a monster."

["Mommy always calls me her little WMD of justice!"] Robyn's voice spoke up with a cheer.

"Wow that's sounds messed up." Kaine muttered with a sigh.

"Now dismantle them!" Spidey commanded as the gliders suddenly lost power sending the two villains plummeting towards the ground.

"This is the end!" Ero roared as she leapt down towards them and grabbed them both by their faces tightly as she landed on the streets below. Ero slammed them on the ground with a great amount of force causing them to gasp in pain. Picking them up, Ero threw them at the side of a building and instantly webbed them to it after they made contact.

"Now she knows how to get things done!" Kaine chuckled as he landed with Spider-Man while Ero approached the villains and ripped off their masks.

"Tell me what Kingpin was after!" Ero bit out angrily.

"S-screw you." Phil gasped out before his head was rammed into the wall painfully.

"What about you Roderick?" Ero questioned with a glare as she held the older man's chin. "I know for a fact that you came here for a reason, what was this idiot after!?"

"Just because you have Spider Powers doesn't mean a thing!" Roderick grunted. "I'm not telling you anything!"

"Ero…" Spider-Man began as he noticed how angry Ero was becoming. He stopped when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"It's too late Parker; those two won't see tomorrow it's best if you just leave them to her."

"You can't be serious!" Spider-Man said angrily. "We can't just let her kill them in cold blood! That's not how I do things!"

"But that's not you doing anything is it?" Kaine interrupted firmly. "At this point it is all her and quite frankly I agree with her. They are just Osborns in the making, especially the older one. How many people will lose their own 'Gwen' to them after they undoubtedly escape prison?"

Spidey clenched his hands angrily at the thought, but unlike all of the times Talon had killed he could actually prevent it. They were right there.

"Parker so help me if you stop her, I will do it myself." Kaine promised coldly. "I'm not asking you kill them, I'm asking you to let them go. They are adults who have made their decisions and have robbed others their rights to do the same. It's time you learnt how to wash your hands of those who have plagued you."

"Gahh!" Roderick screamed in pain as Ero used the Mark of Kaine on his face while Ero glared at a frightened Phil.

"Tell me what you're after!" Ero growled out fiercely as Phil turned to Spider-Man frantically.

"Spidey you can't actually be letting this happen!?" Phil said in disbelief.

"Spidey ain't going to help you today, now tell me what I want to know!" Ero shouted as Roderick continued to scream in pain.

"Please Spidey!" Phil shouted as Ero turned to Spider-Man with narrowed eyes.

["Spider-Man! You can't be serious, help us!"]

Spider-Man froze as Mysterio's frightened words rung through his head. This was almost a mirror image of what had happened when he left Mysterio's fate to Talon and Black Widow.

"What are you going to do?" Ero questioned obviously preparing for a fight if Spider-Man decided to interrupt. Spider-Man knew that no matter what he did he wouldn't be fast enough to stop Ero should she decide to kill them. "You're only human." Ero said softly as she relaxed her gaze gaining Spider-Man's attention. "You're not a god so stop trying to save everyone. I know… I used to be you but even I turned evil for a short while. If you are so busy protecting the villains, who will be there to protect the innocent? I'm not telling you to go off and start killing villains but if they are about to die due to their own actions then leave them." Spider-Man said nothing for a while but eventually gave a single nod and turned away, there wasn't much he could do anyway.

"You're making the right choice." Kaine said simply as he walked away with his brother. "Whatever they are up to will no doubt cost many people their lives in the long run."

"I hope you're right, I really do."

"Fine! I'll tell you!" Phil shouted frantically. "At a biker bar near the East River in Brooklyn, The Goblin gangers are meeting up and they have a briefcase that has the Goblin Key in it. Kingpin wanted the key so that he could have access to all of Osborn's weapons and technology. It's possibly one of the greatest treasure troves in the world!" Phil revealed making Spider-Man pause his walking. (LIAG Helpful Info: The Goblin Gangers is a biker gang that consists of fans of the Green Goblin.)

"All of his tech?" Ero muttered in with wide eyes. "Weaver, if Kingpin had gotten his hands on that…" Ero shook her head.

"You traitor! You sad excuse for a goblin-*MMM*!" A badly burned Roderick was cut off as his mouth was covered in webbing.

"You'll leave us alone now right? Leave us to the cops I mean." Phil asked hopefully as Ero smirked and held up her badge making him pale. "Ero Parker, NYPD. Goodbye gentlemen." Ero drawled as she placed her hands on their faces and tensed her wrists.

*SCHLIK!*

And just like that the goblins were no more.

"You gonna leave them like that?" Kaine questioned called out to Ero making her shake her head.

"Nope." Ero said before giving a loud whistle. At first nothing happened, but after a while hundreds of spiders came out of nowhere and covered the two goblins. After about a minute or two they dispersed leaving nothing behind.

"Well damn." Kaine muttered as Ero walked towards them. Once Ero made it to the she wrapped an arm around Spider-Man and gave him a small embrace.

"You made the right choice."

"I know." Spidey said with a sigh and deep down he really believed that. That many weapons should never fall into the hands of the goblins or Kingpin. Spider-Man then placed a hand to his ear and looked up at the sky. "Robyn where are the Goblin Gangers?"

["They just made it to the biker bar Mr. Spider-Man!"]

"Ready for another preemptive strike?" Spidey asked his siblings getting nods from both of them.

"Providing blondie lets me get a few hits in this time." Kaine muttered making Ero chuckle.

"You gotta be fast bro, not my fault your reaction speed is so slow." Ero snickered.

"I actually miss my Spider-Sense." Kaine sighed. (LIAG Helpful Info: Kaine does not have his Spider-sense anymore due to the events of Spider-Island)

"Hey I gave you some pretty badass powers, don't be greedy." Ero said with a frown confusing the hell out of the two men before Kaine pointed a finger at her.

"Oh hell no. I knew you were familiar, you're the one who came to me when I died!" Kaine said with a slight hint of disbelief. (LIAG Fun Fact: When Kaine underwent his own Other transformation, his powers were bestowed upon him by Ero.)

"What?" Spidey questioned in shock.

"Oh don't look so surprised." Ero muttered. "Kaine's a clone so there was no way he was going to get his own Other. I had to give both of you your new powers. Sadly though, I could only get a new body from your death."

"Huh, how about that? You learn something new every day." Spidey quipped making Ero smile slightly to herself as she realized that he had gotten over what had just happened.

"Yup now let's go, we have to make it to Brooklyn before they leave, take the key, and then go have a very nice diner with May." Ero said happily getting a sigh from Spider-Man. "I already texted her that you invited her to your apartment for dinner."

"Damn it." Spider-Man groaned as he swung off with the other two following close behind.

"Does that mean-"Kaine began getting a firm nod from Ero.

"Yes you have to reveal yourself too."

"Why?"

"Why not? It's Aunt May." Ero said bluntly.

"…"

"Please do let me know when you can find something to counter that argument." Ero added making Kaine grumble as Spider-Man had the strangest sense of déjà vu.

"Damn…Anna is going to get a kick out of this one." Kaine said to himself as they swung.

"…"

"…"

"Anna huh?" Ero finally said making Kaine curse at the fact that he was thinking out loud. (LIAG Helpful Info Annabelle Adams is a…"Friend" of Kaine's they have a very rocky relationship, but both have shown to have romantic feelings for each other.)

"Oh this is interesting, I was wondering if you ever made any friends down in Houston." Spidey teased as he flipped in the air. "Tell me is she cute?" Spidey teased.

"Ha! If she's a red-head I'm going to lose it." Ero snickered as she thought of Mary Jane. Both Ero and Spider-Man nearly lost their grips on their web-lines when Kaine remained silent. "No way…"

"Shut the hell up." Kaine muttered as he swung in front of them.

"Oh this is priceless!" Ero laughed as Spidey shook his head.

"Now, now Ero there is still a chance that she is just a friend…" Spidey trailed off giving Kaine a chance to deny having a girlfriend.

Which he didn't.

"Well never mind." Spidey chuckled. "I guess now I know why he doesn't call, though I wish he would have told me about this mystery woman."

"We'll….maybe she has a good personality." Ero piped up making both herself and Spidey shudder.

"Fuck you both." Kaine bit out as he released his web-line so he could flip both of them off before swinging again. "And for your information, not that it's either of yours damned business, she's a bartender and a singer."

"Oh la la, fancy~" Spidey quipped making Ero chuckle.

"I don't think you can say anything Spider-Pimp." Ero spoke up. "How the hell did your life spiral out of control like it has?"

"I ask myself that every night before I go to sleep." Spidey groaned. "How's the Queen? Is her butt really as big as it seems up close and personal?"

"Now this is interesting." Kaine spoke up suddenly as he slowed down a bit so he could swing next to Spidey as Ero gaped at him.

"H-how do you know about that!?" Ero questioned in shock.

"You just told me." Spider-Man deadpanned as he swung in front of her. "I assumed that the reason you are back in your prime was because you got a tantric refill from one of your team mates."

"Looks like we need to rearrange the pecking order." Kaine said suddenly as he too left the blonde behind.

-30 Minutes later-

*CRASH!*

"Help me-AHHHHH"

"Got any tens?" Spidey questioned Ero curiously as they sat at a table in the bar with playing cards in their hands.

"Go fish." Ero smirked making Spidey grumble to himself as Kaine punched a biker across the room.

"Wow he is having a lot of fun." Spidey pointed out making Ero nod.

"Well it's to be expected, we did kind of take the fun from him during the last fight."

"That's true." Spidey said as he nodded his head as another biker crashed through their table. "Well I was going to win anyway."

"Bull shit."

"So how long do you think the police will be able to hold Kingpin?" Spidey questioned curiously as he walked over to a silver briefcase and picked it up.

"Maybe a day, two at the most." Ero said with a sigh as Spidey opened up the suit case. "I would have taken him out as well if we weren't so pressed on time."

"Well like you said you're only…" Spider-Man trailed off before clearing his throat. "Actually I don't know what the heck to call you." Spidey said sheepishly as he opened the suit case.

"Don't think about it too hard, you'll get a headache." Ero smirked. "So that's the Key huh?"

"Looks like it." Spider-Man said with a nod as he held up the small golden key that had the face of the Green Goblin on it.

"Make sure you hide that some place safe." Kaine said as he walked up while brushing off his hands. Spider-Man had a visible frown as he clenched the key tightly in his hand.

"Maybe I should just destroy it-"

! Spider-Sense: Stop that idiot!

! Spider-Sense: Don't destroy it fool!

Ero and Spider-Man flinched as their respective Spider-senses went off.

"On second thought…I'll just keep it in a safe place…"

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea." Ero agreed wholeheartedly as Spidey placed it in his belt. "Alright, now that's what I call a good day's work.

"So now what?" Kaine questioned as he crossed his arms.

"Now it's time for our dear brother to face the music." Ero smirked making Spidey's shoulder's slump.

-One hour later: Team Amazing's Apartment-

"[I am glad to see that you have adapted to this strange place so easily.]" Ryu said with a smile as Chun-Li opened the door to her team's apartment.

"[It is a pretty nice place….minus the random Armageddons."] Chun-Li pointed out making Ryu stare at her with half-lidded eyes. "[I am not kidding you, there is like one a month.]"

"[I'll take your word for it…]" Ryu sighed before giving Chun-Li a very odd look. "[Did you really have to team up with a man with Spider powers of all things?]" Ryu questioned making Chun-Li sigh as she thought about her old friend's severe dislike of Spiders. Chun-Li gave him a reassuring smile as she opened the door.

"[He is just as 'normal' as either of us there is nothing to fear-]" Chun-Li stopped mid-sentence as she stepped in the apartment only to find Peter and a strange man that looked very similar to him backed into a wall as an elderly woman berated them. Now that she looked at the other man's costume she realized that he must be The Scarlet Spider Peter had spoken about.

"Do you have any idea how completely idiotic both of you are!?" May bit out.

"Listen May-" Kaine began but stopped when the woman glared at him fiercely causing him to step back and remain silent as she continued to vent.

"Hello Chun-Li." Talon nodded as she stood off to the side with Logan, a younger looking man that looked very similar to the two ferals, Jubilee, Hsien-Ko and Ero who was doing her hardest not to burst out laughing.

"What the hell did you two get yourselves into?" Chun-Li questioned in shock as Ryu stood wide-eyed at the scene.

"…Is that freaking Ryu?" Jubilee questioned faintly as she pointed at the large man. Sure she had scene and done some weird things in her life. Hell she was still getting over the fact that she was actually a friend of Chun-Li from fucking Street Fighter but the fact that Ryu was a mere ten feet away from finally made everything sink in. "What the hell is wrong with this planet!?" Chun-Li was about to respond when Ero approached them with her hands behind her back. Chun-Li gave her a weary look as she was still cautious around the blonde despite Cammy's assurances.

"C-can…" Ero stuttered out as she raised a notebook. "Can I have your autograph?" Ero questioned Ryu with proverbial stars in her eyes.

"Sure?" Ryu answered in confusion as he wrote his name down while Chun-Li gaped at the woman.

"[Of course, Peter would be doing the same thing if he wasn't getting screamed at.]" Chun-Li sighed. When it was deemed no longer necessary to hide Street Fighter from Chun-Li…the first thing Peter did was get an autograph and a picture. "So what are they being yelled at for and who are they being yelled at by?"

"Pete's getting yelled at for trying to hide fact that he was Spider-Man from Aunt May, that's who that is by the way, and Kaine is getting yelled at for hiding his existence from said woman." Ero said with a smirk.

"Hey! We aren't the only ones who should be getting yelled at." Peter interrupted before pointing at Ero. "Did she tell you that up until recently she was dying!?"

"What!?"

Now no one was sure what had happened but a few minutes after that revelation a pale Ero found herself on the wall with her siblings.

"You three must have lost your damned minds!" May bit out as the three powerful heroes found themselves

"You're such a tattle tale!" Ero said in shock as she turned to Peter.

"If we're stuck here then so are you." Peter muttered as Kaine nodded his head.

"Amen."

"You three look at me when I'm talking to you!" May said as she clenched her fist. "I don't care how old or strong you three are, I'll still knock you out."

"Yes ma'am." The three spider-heroes droned.

"Oh…this is beautiful…." Chun-Li smirked as she stood next to Talon with Ryu. "So who's the new guy, and why are your eyes green?" Chun-Li questioned gaining Jubilee's attention. Up until this point the half-vampire had been ignorant to the fact that Talon's eye color was permanent. She had just assumed Talon kept them red for intimidation. Talon, who would later look back on this conversation years from now and wonder what the hell had crossed her mind when she decided to be honest, told her everything that had transpired. Chun-Li and Ryu widened their eyes at the tale as Jubilee placed a tight grip on Talon's shoulder.

"Wait…" Jubilee began making Talon raise an eyebrow at her. "Are you telling me you broke yourself for me?"

"Yes, that is what transpired." Talon said as she nodded.

"Damn, you could have at least made something up." Chun-Li said as she face-palmed confusing Talon. "Hell you could've even said you were experimenting with colored contacts."

"Why?" Talon frowned in confusion as Logan and hell even Daken sighed.

She got her answer moments later when she suddenly found herself standing next to Ero.

"You must have lost your damned mind!" Jubilee shouted stunning the hell out of the feral. "Why the hell would you do that?"

"What are you talking about I did it for you-"

"And I understand that!" Jubilee growled. "I am touched but, damn it, think about how you would feel if I mentally snapped myself in half for you!" Jubilee shouted making the feral's eyes widen. Talon knew that she would be glad that Jubilee would still be with her….but the thought of the half-vampire hurting herself for her infuriated her slightly.

"Seems like I am going to be here for a while, at least she's getting it out now instead of blaming herself and avoiding me….like I would." Talon thought dryly as she bowed her head with a sigh. "What did Peter tell me to do in situations like this?"

["Listen Laura, I'm going to give you some relationship advice which will come in handy when you are finally married! No matter how right you are and no matter how much good your choice brings…you're wrong and your wife's right. Period. So sit back, take the anger and keep your mind on the make-up sex."]

Wise man.

"Well I guess this is the consequence of making dangerous choices." Chun-Li shrugged with a small smirk.

"*Snort* Yeah you're one to talk." Logan said with a smirk. "Aren't you the one who decided to fight Akuma instead of forfeiting? I read up on the guy; that took heart." Chun-Li was about to respond when she felt someone grip her shoulder. Glancing back she paled slightly as she saw a frowning Ryu standing as his eyes seemed to have been replaced by shadows.

"[Is this true?]" Ryu questioned the woman who he pretty much regarded as a younger sister at this point.

"I-in my defense…" Chun-Li began as a small bead of sweat slid down her face. "I won."

…

…

"[Are you insane!?]" Ryu questioned in disbelief as Chun-Li found herself standing next to Talon.

"[It's been a long time since you have seen me; I am not the same as I was before!]" Chun-Li bit out as Ryu crossed his arms.

"[I understand that, I can feel your power as we speak, and it's slightly unnerving. Tell you what; I'll drop this matter if you can tell me you were this level when you fought him.]" Chun-Li chuckled nervously as she remembered that she was in fact not her current level at the time and much…much weaker.

"[Yes…?]"

"[You are a terrible liar.]" Ryu deadpanned before resuming the previous argument.

"You know it's a sad day when we are the most normal people in a room." Daken pointed out making his father nod.

"Wanna go raid their fridge?" Logan questioned with a smirk getting a feral grin in return as both father and son got up to make themselves a snack so they could continue watching the shit-storm.

-2 hours later-

The shouting had continued for another fifteen minutes before finally ending. The occupants of the apartment had eventually sat down to enjoy a nice dinner courtesy of Ero and May and now it was time for everyone to go home.

"Aunt May, I'm really sorry for hiding this from you, but I can't stop being Spider-Man…not now anyway." Peter said softly as he embraced his aunt as they stood in the hallway.

"*Sigh* I can't pretend to understand this strange world you are part of, but let me ask this…are you happy and are you sure this is what you want?" May inquired tiredly as Peter closed his eyes.

"I used to ask myself that every time I put the mask on, but eventually I found my answer." Peter began as he looked as his aunt as a fire seemed to burn in his eyes. "Every time I save someone I am sparing someone else from losing their own 'Uncle Ben'-that person that means so much in their lives- and when I see the gratitude on their faces I think to myself; yeah I'm doing the right thing. And you know what?"

"What dear?" May asked softly as she stared at her nephew, the boy-no-man she raised.

"Doing the right thing makes me happy." Peter answered with a smile which May returned with a sad smile of her own.

"Then I guess it doesn't matter how I feel, there's a hero in all of us Peter and I am so proud that you've managed to find the one in you…though I would still like to have a talk with your wives." May finished dryly with narrowed eyes and somewhere in Emora's grand palace Silver and Natasha both shuddered suddenly.

"U-Understood."

*Click*

"Well Parker, it's time for me to leave." Kaine said as he left the apartment. "I have to catch my flight back to Houston."

"Leaving already?" Peter questioned with a raised eyebrow making Kaine nod.

"Yup I came to check out what the hell was going on in New York, but you seem to have everything under control. I'll see you around."

"But of course you are planning to visit often, aren't you dear?" May asked sweetly but for some reason it felt like a threat to Kaine.

"Y-yes ma'am." Kaine answered with a firm nod "Want me to take you home? We're headed the same direction anyway."

"That would be lovely dear." May smiled before walking off with Kaine.

"Well that went smoothly." Ero said as she left the apartment and stood next to Peter. "Now aren't you glad I made you spill your guts?"

"Surprisingly, yes." Peter said as he nodded his head before releasing a long sigh. "Ero…I'm sorry."

"For what?" Ero asked perturbed.

"Everything, I should have treated you better and not have taken you for granted back when you were my body. I should have tried to understand that you weren't as black and white as you seemed and that you just wanted to live, and for that I apologized." Ero said nothing for a moment, too stunned to do anything, but eventually a small smile graced her lips as she wrapped an arm around Peter's neck.

"Come on, don't get so sappy!" Ero said as she ruffled Peter's hair. "Just make sure you don't screw up with that body, it's the last one you are getting." Ero said seriously but with a smile before poking Peter's chest and giving it a mock glare. "And don't screw him over either." Ero joked as she spoke to Peter's body. "I'll see you around Peter; I have to go find a place that sells diapers cheap."

"Ah gotcha-wait what!?" Peter asked perplexed but didn't get a response.

-Meanwhile: Arachnophobia's Apartment-

*CRASH*

"Gnh…GAK!" Juri watched in confusion as Adriana suddenly dropped her plate of food and fell to her knees.

"Queenie?" Juri asked with wide eyes as the woman clenched her stomach and began to cough of up blood. "Whoa! What the hell is wrong with you!?" Juri questioned in disgust that was laced with just a little amount of concern as she went to help the powerful woman up, only to be waved off.

"I-It's n-nothing I c-can't handle." Adriana panted tiredly as she struggled to stand on her feet. "I-I'll g-go get something to clean up the blood." Now Juri knew something was up, the Queen would never clean up anything as long as she had at least one mind controlled servant around.

"The hell you are." Juri bit out with narrowed eyes. "Go lie down; I can't have you hurting yourself. As much as I hate to admit it, I need you for this tournament. I can clean up a little blood." The Queen was going to protest but when Juri's left eye began to glow she thought better of it.

"Fine." Adriana muttered as she turned away from the fighter. "One thing though."

"What?"

"Do not tell Ero that this happened." The Queen ordered causing Juri to narrow her eyes.

"Why-"

"Juri." Adriana interrupted firmly but, much to the fighter's surprise, she could see a slight look of pleading from the woman.

"Fine, whatever, it's not my problem anyway."

"Thank you." The Queen muttered as she walked away.

-Team Amazing's Apartment: Roof: Jubilee and Laura-

"So what happens now Laura?" Jubilee questioned softly as the feral sighed. "What exactly did you do to yourself?"

"I have no idea." Laura replied as she stared at her hands. "My body doesn't feel as strong as it used to, yet at the same time I know I got some sort of power after Romulus died. My healing factor is still there along with my powers…but I'm not sure if I'm immortal anymore."

"Oh Laura…" Jubilee sighed as she shook her head.

"I have centuries left in me, maybe even millennia, but the point is eventually there will be an end now, I can feel it." Laura muttered as she clenched her fists.

"We'll have lived long enough when that happens." Jubilee said with a shrug as she brought Laura in for an embrace.

"Jubilee?"

"When you breathe your last breath, so will I." Jubilee clarified making Laura widen her eyes in understanding. "There is no way I will live forever without you by my side."

"Jubilee, you can't do that-"

"Laura." Jubilee interrupted with a sad smile. "The only reason I even remained a vampire was to be with you." Jubilee informed the feral as she placed a light kiss on her mate's lips.

"How…" Laura began as tears fell from her eyes. "How can you love me that much?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Jubilee questioned softly. "Because, you're you." Jubilee finished before bring Laura in for another, much longer, kiss. As this was happening, unbeknownst to the two, a white haired man stood on a faraway roof and frowned at the scene.

"So…Romulus failed, that mutt could not complete such a simple task." Dracula frowned before glancing back at a group of crimson eyed individuals. "Soon my children of the night, your Queen will come to us. Let us depart for tonight and leave her with her whore."

-With Peter-

After getting Ryu's autograph, Peter showed him one of the unused rooms in the apartment building that wasn't being used and then said bud Daken and Logan farewell.

"This has been an interesting day." Peter drawled getting a nod from Chun-Li.

"You can say that again, I am going to go to bed early; I didn't get a chance to rest after my matches today." Chun-Li explained as Peter released a tired yawn.

"I think I'll follow your lead, by the way, during dinner Ryu pulled you to the side is there something I should be worried about?" Peter questioned in concern as Chun-Li shook her head nervously.

"N-nothing at all Peter." Chun-Li smiled before walking away. "I'll see you in the morning. Good night."

"Good night."

-Meanwhile: Port Authority Bus Terminal-

"Bye sweetie, be good. I love you." Julia said as she waved goodbye to her daughter as the bus pulled off. Julia rubbed her temples with a resigned sigh. "Damn, I thought I had longer….better make use of the time I have left." Julia muttered as she pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number.

["911, what is your emergency?'] A voice questioned from the phone as Julia winced in pain

"There is a woman in dire need of medical attention outside of the Port Authority Bus Terminal."

["What's your relationship to the victim?"] Julia released a long breath as she closed her eyes.

"I'm her." Was all Julia could say before countless images exploded in her mind, sending her crashing to the ground in a seizure "I see…EVERYTHING!"

-Team Amazing's Roof-

Jubilee and Laura were about to head back in to the apartment when the bright red ethereal form of Julia appeared floating before them.

["Talon!"] The woman shouted as both of the younger women looked at her in shock. ["Listen me closely I don't have much time, I am Madame Web watcher of the Web of Life. I was too late to save Peter, but you can still change everything! Do not give in to the chaos of Hell and whatever you do, come tomorrow do NOT trust Peter Parker! The end is near!"] Julia shouted before exploding in a burst of light.

"W-what the hell!?"" Jubilee questioned with wide eyes as Laura stared at where the woman was in shock. "Laura, who the hell was that!?"

"Madame Web, Peter had told me about her once though this is my first time meeting the woman, she watches over the Web of life." Laura said before narrowing her eyes. "She's an ally but…she said not to trust Peter, what the hell happened today?"

"I don't know…" Jubilee said with a frown. "But if you trust her, do as she says and keep a close eye on the Web-head tomorrow."

"What the hell is going on, first Romulus and now this?" Laura wondered as she gritted her teeth as she heard the sound of an ambulance that, unknown to her, was going to pick up Julia. Laura didn't know what tomorrow would bring, but she was not going to let her guard down.

-The Next morning: Daybreak: Empire State Building-

Phantom Spider stood on the roof of the large building and gazed at the city lights. The man said nothing as he glanced at his watch before pocketing it.

"Let the games begin."

To be continued…

-Omake-

~White Room~

"Son. Of. A. bitch!" A man with white hair, silver eyes, and tan skin who was wearing a black suit shouted as he stomped through the halls of the HQ. "Who the hell is monitoring the Mass Effect world!?" Rebuke questioned loudly as a blonde young woman walked passed him. "Lexie, is it you?"

"Sorry boss, but I have my own problems with the Fairy Tail world I believe its Jorn though." Lexie told the man as she walked away. Rebuke paused as he felt as though he could breathe fire at this point.

"Son of a-JORN!" Rebuke shouted but got no response. "JORN!? Where are you!?"

"What the hell boss? Why are you so upset?" Rebuff questioned in shock as she faded into existence in front of the shorter man. "I can feel your anger from Earth-616!"

"Why are you always keyed on to my emotions?"

"Why don't you answer my damn question?" Rebuff questioned as she smoothly changed the topic getting a sigh from her employer.

"Jorn's MIA I need someone to handle the Mass Effect World." Rebuke said as he gave the woman a meaningful look. "You feel like getting a promotion?"

"I'm not sure if they are ready for someone like me." Rebuff said seriously. "Besides I have to finish helping Spidey, why don't you do it?"

"Cause I have to make sure you are all doing your jobs and scout for possible allies across the multiverse. Listen you don't have to do it, but the offer is there. Whenever you finish dealing with Spider-Man let me know the job will be on my desk." Rebuke informed his protégé getting a nod from the taller woman. "Alright, I'll see you around-

"Wait, boss?" Rebuff questioned getting a raised eyebrow from the man. "How about…we finish discussing this possible job offer over dinner? My treat."

"Hmm, I see nothing wrong with that. Let's go." Rebuke shrugged as he followed his third seat down the hallway.

Alright, the way things are looking sometime After Spidey LIAG I'll have to take over the Mass Effect fic. Problem is my memory of the game is fuzzy as hell so I might need some help hintity hint hint hint.

Reviews:

Wiggles-n-stuff: Chuckles evilly. Yes…let the Sue/Peter consume you muahahaha…

Heromtz: Well as you can see the Romulus thing kind of gotten taken care of. I have already figured out the rest of Team Amazing's fights. However I'll start doing a series of nothing but off screen battles when I finish this fic. I'll take suggestions then.

AJ Lexie: Nah DP loves the UK

LIAG-fan: Thanks for the info, I could have sworn Iron-Man had a Jarvis, but whatever it doesn't matter. As for Cap's shield I know what it's made out of but it's easier to just say vibranium (Especially when other characters in comics refer to it as vibranium) then getting to specifics.

HardHitter: I'll think about it.

Mercwiththemouth: Well Kaine's team isn't revealed yet, though it's pretty obvious at this point. Their name will come soon.

Auron187: This is what all of the butterfly effects have been getting set up for. To completely destroy the Superior arc.

El Elegido: Let's just say this…you WILL remember the Phantom Spider.

The New Creed: Because apparently making Peter's life horrible makes him relatable despite the fact that like 90% of humans would have at least gone anti-hero by now.

Ferpet: Thank you.

GumGumOnigiri: Thanks!

Mz1997: Hope this wasn't too long.

FrivolousThoughts: Who knows where their relationship will end up; I'm still waiting for the story to tell me. Thanks for the review!

Silent Envoy: Thanks! Lol I wish I could get an award for this.

John Doe: Nah he's not in yet. Hey Johnny's gotta be safe! The remainder of this arc is going to hurt; I'm not going to lie.

Z2010Deadmeat: Nope!

Gravitate: Well…Romulus got one chapter anyway lol

LTF: Hope this answered your question about Ero.

ShadowBloodedge9396: Misread my review bro, Spider- GIRL isn't in the harem.

Harbinger Of Kaos: In hindsight it's not going to be anywhere near as focused on as Laura/Jubilee hell you probably won't even notice the romance between Logan and Rachel. And yes, Warren did join.

Coppa-Cola: People are going to be hurt.

AthanMortis: Nice, like I said you probably have more marvel comics than I do lol.

Sh8ad8ow: Correction NEXT chapter is when all hell breaks loose.

Batamut: Probably nowhere near as far as you think.

Le Chasseur: It was a remarkable sentence fragment.

Mattblue: Here's more.

Kylerocks01: I do too, kind of wish they followed up on it.

BlueInfernoX: Thanks!
