As the Chun Li continued her investigation, Spidey continued to assist her. But they ran into a dead end. The two got distracted escorting people from a burning building. The cause of the fire was unknown at the time. Both of them assisted the fire fighters, as they held a couple of people at a time trying to get them out safely. Chun Li bashed with her intense strength the door down as she got the last person free.
"Stand back mortal!" a voice called out.
Spidey and Chun Li quickly moved away from the fire, as they made way for a blond thunder god, wielding a mighty hammer. He swung his weapon, creating massive winds putting out the fires.
"You are quite strong maiden." He complimented.
"Tall, blond and handsome- you're just my kind of Guy, but do have to carry that hammer all the time?" she replied.
Spider-man greeted, "Hey there Thor, how's everything been in Asgard?"
"Aye little has changed. My wicked brother Loki still continues his rampage, but it is all in the hands of the Asgardians. I have returned to Midgard to assist in another matter. I had to find the cause of this fire." Thor explained.
"We suspected that criminals started this fire in order to throw us off their trail." She said.
Thor held his hammer as it began to grow with a different aura, "Ney, my hammer senses other activity. This was not done by human mortals, but beings not of this realm."
Spider-man checked the wreckage, "Well whoever it is really has some intense firepower."
"Aye, I suspect another force at work. Come my friends, you must aid me in battle to stop this force." Thor lead.
Spider-man and Chun Li nodded in reply to help Thor. They too were determined to get to the bottom of this destruction.
They followed the trail of giant footprints through the football field. Thor's hammer aura grew with power. It sense that they were drawing near the source.
BOOM! A bunch of men collapsed outside the building injured from a strong attack. A load roar echoed through the building. Spider-man and Chun Li heard the sound as they quickly put up their guard.
"Leave Hulk alone!" it shouted.
Spider-man shrieked, "Uh-oh."
The seven foot tall green monster, stood before them in an angry rage. Spidey and Chun Li stood fearless at the mighty Hulk. Even if Hulk was the strongest of all heroes, they stood against worse foes.
"Chun Li, however it looks, Hulk is not like any other heroes." Spider-man warned.
Chun Li took a deep breath, "Yeah, I've noticed."
Hulk began the first attack swinging his fist. Chun Li and Spider-man maneuvered his huge size. They knew since the Hulk was big and strong, but his speed was slow.
"Come on Hulkster, don't say you're getting old for your age." Spidey had teased.
Enraged, he shot back, "Hulk not amazed by puny spider jokes! Hulk will smash the spider!"
Spider-man tangled hulk in his web, as Chun Li delivered a fast upper kick against him. Thor pounded Hulk with his powerful hammer in an attempt to subdue him. Even if Hulk was a monster, deep inside he was still their ally and friend.
Hulk caught Chun Li's incoming kick, "Hulk will crush women with big legs!"
Spider-man shot his web in Hulk's eyes and said, "Hey that is not a way to treat a lady."
"Aye, you will show her some respect." Thor replied launching his lighting attacks at Hulk.
"Take it easy Hulk; you shouldn't take things so personal." Spider-man assured.
Hulk quickly caught Spider-man in his grasp, "Hulk no like spiders!"
Hulk slammed Spider-man to the ground continuously. Spider-man quickly webbed up Hulk's face blinding him temporary. Chun Li and Thor attacked Hulk with surge amount of power to put him down. He rose back on his feet and spat out blood.
"Are you alright Spider-man?" Thor inquired.
Spider-man brushed himself off, "Yeah, thanks to you."
Hulk continued to roar in an attempt, to finish off his opponents. As he charged at the three heroes, Iron man quickly rushed in and placed sonic disruptor earphones on the Hulk. This device rendered Hulk to paralyze state collapsing to the ground. Hulk eventually changed back to his human self.
"Come on, we have to get him back to Stark towers now." He ordered.
Later on that day, Bruce had woken up in a bed of Stark Towers. Spider-man, Chun Li, Thor and Iron man stood by his side, regardless of the damage he's caused. He looked around confusedly and asked, "Where am I?"
Tony placed his hand on Bruce shoulder to calm him down, "Easy Bruce, you went berserk as the Hulk again."
"So what made you go Hulk this time?" Spider-man asked.
"I went into seclusion to a dark cave to get away from the world. But then, some unknown men attacked me with deadly weapons. They were not military or C.I.A or even Shield. I begged them to leave me alone, however, they refused. As usual they wanted to turn the Hulk into their own personal weapon. I'm sorry, but when the pressure got the best of me, I just lost it." Bruce explained holding his hands towards his guilty face.
"So you transform when you get angry or stress?" she asked.
Thor smiled, "At ease, Dr. Banner you are among friends."
"That's not enough, I still have to concentrate, and there is no telling what damage the Hulk will cause next." He replied in fear.
"Why don't I help you, I have years of experience." Chun Li offered winking.
Chun Li and Bruce sat in a quiet room for meditation. If the Tony saw the Hulk as an ally and friend, then so shall she. Both fighters lied quietly to focus their inner energy. "Well, you know what they say, mind over muscle."
"Thank you for helping me Chun Li." He said in relief.
Meanwhile, Spider-man and Iron man checked the collapsed building for any clues on the attack against Hulk. Iron man scanned the broken technology and recognized the products.
"Have you found anything?" he inquired still searching the burnt ruble.
"Yeah, this is Latveria tech, but I can't pinpoint the other ones. This is all curiosity of yours truly." Iron man said.
As the wreak tech caught sight of Iron man, it triggered an explosion burning any piece Latveria technology left. The two of them quickly evaded the explosion before it connected.
"Damn, and here I thought we had something again Dr. Doom." He cursed.
Iron man replied with determination, "Don't worry, well get him next time." But little did the heroes know they were being watched? They suspected a bigger force at work.
