Here's a little filler stuff until the next real chapter comes out, hope you enjoy this bit of side tracking.
Ava was worried. Peter had gone out a long time ago and she hadn't seen any sign of him since. Worried that something was up, she walked into the living room where the guys were playing video games.
"Hey has anyone seen Peter? Did he come back and just not tell me?" Ava asked.
"Nope, haven't seen him." Luke said, still focusing on the game.
"Me neither." Sam added, frustrated that he was losing.
"I have not seen our friend for some time." Danny informed her as calm as ever.
"I think something's up…" Ava whispered.
Going into her room, Ava sat down on her bed and turned on the news. What she saw made her jump a little.
'Breaking news: Spider-man missing after fight with unidentified combatant. More on this at 11.'
"Oh my god, I have to tell Fury." Ava suited up and went downstairs to tell the others.
"Guys Peter's in trouble, I saw it on the news. We need to go." She ordered them.
"Who died and made her team leader?" Sam wondered out loud.
"Maybe Peter if we don't find out what happened, now MOVE." Ava was angry now, she was worried about what could've happened to her friend.
The team made their way to Central Park where Spider-man had fought his alternate self. S.H.I.E.L.D. was already on scene investigating. When the team showed up they made their way over to Director Fury.
"What happened here sir?" Powerman asked, although he doubted he would get a definite answer.
"Not sure as of right now. All we know is Spider-man fought someone here, they escaped, and now the webhead's gone." Fury responded.
"Did anyone get a good look at who it was?" Ava was hoping somebody had some idea what it was that they were up against.
"Not that we know, reports said he was in a black suit and in his early to mid-30s based on height." Fury informed the team. "The only evidence we found here was some of Spider-man's blood as well as some webs, also Spider-man's."
"I don't think so sir." White Tiger sniffed the webs, her tiger amulet gave her heightened senses and she smelled a difference. "The webs are definitely Spider-man's, but these smell different somehow…"
"So you're saying someone else is shooting webs around here?" Nova theorized.
"Could it have been Venom?" Iron Fist suggested.
"The symbiote is somewhere in space remember? Spider-man saw to that." Fury reminded him.
"Whatever it is, it's not good." Tiger said ominously.
Peter...where are you? Tiger was a bit scared. She never got the chance to tell Peter how she really felt, and now he was missing. At this point Ava feared the worst.
"We'll keep investigating here, the four of you should go home and see if Parker turns up." Fury told the teen heroes.
"Yes sir." The four of them replied.
On a rooftop nearby, far away from the action, a dark figure watched the masses of agents scouring the crater.
"So it seems my counterpart has gone to my world, should be interesting to see how this plays out. Maybe I'll have some fun here while I wait." The figure said to himself.
He chuckled to himself and left, disappearing into the darkness.
