Yeah, I thought about the updating chapters thing, and that was meant for refurbishing the older chapters. I decided to NOT do that due to the unwanted spamming it would cause, so I'll update all of it in one big chunk whenever I finish it all. Also explains why this chapter took months to finish because I forgot about it. My bad!
As far as my latest absence…Work bullshit and 10-hour work shifts became the norm for me since my last update.
Other than that, enjoy.
Another successful mission. Not only has this set back The Shield's for an unknown amount of time, but permanent communications with Dr. Otto Octavious have been established. Although unexpected appearances from the likes of The Hulk, the other heroes that fell through the portal, and whatever entity closed the ripple in space and time, this mission achieved its ultimate goal. Wolfram was only a decoy; a pawn in the grand scheme of things.
All in the day's work for The Taskmaster.
It's a shame that the heroes weren't crushed by Wolfram but that was more of a bonus goal.
Taskmaster took off his mask and let down his hood to take a deep breath outside. He was on a single-boat evacuation that he stole right as the lockdown ended. His original plan was to use the boat he and Wolfram took here, but time was suddenly against him so this would have to do.
The man under the alias 'Taskmaster' rubbed his exhausted eyes and looked ahead. Nothing but water was all that stood between him and land. For the first time in a long while, he was alone. Alone with his thoughts. Normally this would be the time to remember purpose, and reason, and justify why a person like him would do such evil acts.
But that would be a waste of time. It's not because the man is iron-willed in his goals, but because he has no real goals outside of contracts. This is all he knew, and this was all he could do. This memory thing, this curse. It only allowed things related to fighting and survival to be retained, but people, places, and things normal people would cherish can't be remembered. They're tossed away like trash when his 'memory' is overfilled and needs to make space for the next skill. A few people can be remembered like Spider-Man, but soon, he'll fade away too.
They always do.
All in the day's work for The Taskmaster.
Hiding the unconscious body underneath a shelf inside the Janitor's office, Felicia Hardy set about making her way toward the office of the head doctor. Felicia was not a stranger to being in intense situations without her gadgets and suit, but this place was vastly different from what she remembered. This technology looks hyper-advanced as if it was built by Tony Stark except that it wasn't. Everything is in Japanese and mutants are walking around as if they've always been accepted into society. Normally Felicia would go with sweet-talking her way out of situations but her Japanese is rusty so her next best option is doing what she does best.
Sneakily exiting the room, Felicia continues down the hall and tries her best to not be spotted. Felicia didn't want to knock out the doctor, but he was very persistent about getting her back to her room. Hiding behind a wall, Felicia waits for the sound of footprints to disappear before quickly jumping out and seeing a nearby map of the building.
"Let's see…" Felicia mumbles as she examines her guide. The main office wasn't too far it's just down the left past the dining hall and the….hotel rooms. Felicia blinked several times and reread the map to make sure she was correct, and indeed, she was. This wasn't a hospital…this is a hybrid of sorts. A fully functional hospital inside of a hotel? What kind of place is this?
Hearing more footsteps coming from behind her, Felicia sprints towards her left. It doesn't matter where she is, Felicia needs to grab her gear and get out before she's caught. Fighting against normal people is one thing, but mutants are a whole other situation. As she ran, Felicia crouched and kept the same speed to avoid being seen through the windows with her nose catching a whiff of the food in the dining hall. Oh, it smells so good but Felicia had to focus on her mission.
Felicia stopped just as she was about to run into the dining hall area. The space was the most it could be with no real hiding spots. Luckily for Felicia, a huge crowd was here and no one was paying attention to her. Stealth 101, blend into the crowd. Felicia walked into the crowd and didn't stray from her path. This mission was easier than she thought it would be but Felicia's guard remained up.
Glancing to her left, Felicia stopped in her tracks and stared past the crowd as they walked around her in confusion. She could only see the back of the heads, but one of the people sitting at the table eating with a green-haired kid….Felicia was reminded of Spider-Man. It has been over a year since Spider disappeared, and Felicia missed the dork greatly. At first, Felicia assumed he left to handle business elsewhere or handle a personal matter, but after a few months, Felicia began to worry, especially when the two X-Men came to New York to fill in for Spider's absence. So much was Felicia worried for Spider's sake that she began a whole escapade left and right with Spider's protege to find out what happened to him but the partnership didn't last long. More time passed and when Felicia found out about the Spider-Crew invading Doctor Octopus's lair, Felicia carefully followed them before being knocked out somehow.
Felicia snapped out of her trance when the green-haired kid probably felt someone staring at him and looked in her direction. Eye contact was made briefly before Felicia kept walking toward her goal.
No way was that Spider. Why would he come to Japan and not tell anyone or at least send a letter? Sure he's disappeared without a trace before but never for a full year. Wherever he is, Felicia is sure he's alright, Spider has a knack for surviving the impossible, something that only makes him more compelling than most.
Soon arriving at her goal, Felicia took note of the office. There were no windows; however, there was a scanner next to the door. Damn! And Felicia was so close too! Letting out a sigh of frustration, Felicia was about to go find the head doctor when a young female voice spoke behind her.
"Are you looking for the doctor?"
Felicia turned her head to see a woman around her height wearing a white blouse, a belt buckle, a skirt, leggings, and long black boots with a long black ponytail tied into a spiky ponytail with one large strand hanging off the right side of her face.
Yaoyorozu was curious and slightly concerned about this patient being this far from the hospital portion of the hotel. Why the head doctor's office is outside of the hospital Yaoyorozu will never know, but then again, the master security room was on level 200 so why should this be any different?
Felicia noted how this girl wasn't a nurse but she looked very mature and knowledgeable in how she presented herself.
"Y..yes." Felicia replied with a fake cry, "Could you…he…hel….help?" Felicia tried to recall the correct words but her Japanese was still rusty after not using it for so long.
Sensing her American accent, Yaoyorozu decided to speak plain English, "I can speak English too."
Felicia sighed in relief, "Oh thank goodness, my Japanese is rusty."
Yaoyorozu smiled, "It's no problem, and yes, I can help you find the doctor. May I ask for your name?"
Not wanting to give up her real name, Felicia said whatever came first, "Mary Jane. How about yours?"
"Yaoyorozu." Momo giggled as 'Jane's' face fell into a slight panic, "Just call me Momo, I don't mind."
"Okay…Momo," Felicia could easily pronounce 'Yaoyorozu,' but she had to keep the image as real as possible. "Where do you think the doctor would be if not here?"
Yaoyorozu thought for a moment. If the doctor isn't present at the medical bay they could be anywhere. Maybe they were having breakfast, talking with David Shield, using the bathroom, etc. Thinking this was a lost cause, Yaoyorozu decided on the next best option. "How about we take you to a nurse? Trying to find a doctor in this area is like finding a needle in a haystack. It's on the other side of the hallway, however." Yaoyorozu explained and pointed to the area that Felicia had just come from.
Felicia predicted this could happen but had to keep the roleplay of being a lost American up, "Okay. Thank you." Felicia didn't like this as the whole point of her mission was to hunt the doctor down and take his credentials to unlock the door with her gear. Now she's being forced to follow Momo back to where she started! Without another word, Yaoyorozu led Felicia back toward the crowd.
Deku blinked and shook off the stranger's stare. What was all that about? One moment Deku was enjoying his scrambled eggs when suddenly his entire body was screaming at him to look behind him as if he was in danger of sorts.
Looking back at his food, Deku was given a confused look by Dr. Banner, "Is everything okay, Midoriya?" Dr. Banner asked.
"Y-yeah," Deku said with a slight pause, "Just got the feeling someone was staring at me, and I was right, it was a young woman with silver hair about our age." Deku and Dr. Banner turned their heads to Peter when his fork fell from his plate and suddenly stood up.
"Where did she go?!" Peter asked, believing it was Felicia.
Deku pointed toward the direction the girl went as Peter suddenly took off, "Peter, wait!" Deku shouted and immediately followed as did Miles and a now concerned Asui. Uraraka was tempted to go but remained seated knowing she couldn't keep pace with crutches in that crowd. Dr. Banner sighed and went back to eating. Dr. Banner wasn't in the mood to do a mission and was hungry. Plus if things suddenly became hectic then his whole image as being an innocent doctor would go out the window. Not to mention he could see Uraraka's frustrations and felt it was best to be by her side.
Running through the crowd and frantically eyeballing everyone, Peter desperately tried to find his off-and-on friend as the others followed him. If Felicia manages to escape this facility there is no telling what will happen to her.
In a brief moment, Peter ran into Yaoyorozu and quickly spoke, "Did you happen to see a silver-haired woman?"
"Yes, I did," Yaoyorozu said, "She is right…" Yaoyorozu paused as the woman she was just guiding was gone. "Here…" Yaoyorozu then shouted above the crowd, "Mary Jane!"
"Oh you so would, Felicia!" Peter irately said as he noticed some people were being pushed a bit deeper into the crowd. "Felicia!"
"Oh, the chase is on!" Felicia thought to herself as goosebumps came over her, "Just like old times, Spider." Felicia said as she quickly broke through the remaining people and dashed off back down the corridor when she was suddenly gripped into the arms of a familiar face.
"Going somewhere, kitty," Gwen teased as she bear-hugged Felicia with her arms trapped by her sides. "It's rude to be running through people you know."
"You just had to ruin the fun, didn't you?" Felicia growled as Gwen Stacy smiled lightly. Felicia looked up and down at Gwen then smiled back, "And where did you get that outfit?"
"If you had stayed in your room, they would have brought you any clothes you'd like," Gwen replied as she was dressed in a white shirt that read 'X Japan', an opened small black leather jacket over it with a dark blue plaid skirt with black leggings that reached down to her black leather shoes.
"Felicia!" Peter shouted as Felicia's attention turned to Peter and the rest of the boys.
Gwen released Felicia as Felicia put up her usual flirtatious bravado right as the boys stopped in front of her, "I could hear you shout my name from the other side of the room. Did you miss me that much?"
"That's the one who was staring at me!" Deku explained quickly as Felicia let out a small laugh.
"I wasn't looking at you, but now that I see you," Felicia sized up Deku as Deku immediately became flustered, "You're not a bad sight."
"I…Uh…I-I-I-I-I-" Deku began to sputter as a girl directly told him he was attractive. There are a few things Deku has, and taking compliments from a girl is not one of them!
Miles rolled his eyes and smacked Deku's back to get him to focus again, "Calm down, Midoriya. Felicia is a huge tease. You'll get used to it."
"The shy one's never get used to it, isn't that right, Petey?" Felicia teased as Peter grunted with flushed cheeks.
"Petey huh? That's a bad name." Asui spoke as she and a confused yet somewhat irritated Yaoyorozu finally caught up. "Peter, who is this?"
Before Peter could say anything, Felicia introduced herself, "My name is Felicia Hardy. I'm a good friend of Petey over here." Felicia put high emphasis on the word 'good,' and noticing the questioning look from Asui, Felicia looked over to Yaoyorozu, "I apologize for the lies, but I wasn't ready to see Peter yet. Not like this at least." Felicia half-heartedly said.
Yaoyorozu sighed and took it, "It's fine. At least I know your real name."
"What are you doing anyways, Felicia?" Peter asked as he wanted to cut to the chase.
"I wanted to retrieve my gear," Felicia answered with a miffed tone, "To be in a new world without my stuff doesn't make me feel protected even if all of you were by my side, Spider-Team."
Peter understood the feeling about being in a foreign place without his suit or web shooters but still wasn't happy that Felicia's first instinct was to do her usual shtick. Then again, what should he have expected?
Asui, now curious just who this Felicia character is, decided to question the girl's motives, "What would you do after you nabbed your supplies?"
Felicia smiled wryly, "Explore the world, steal a few things, sweet talk a few men into giving me what I want. The usual line of work but with a fresh start."
Asui bit her tongue as Miles had a perplexed expression, "Where were you when Gwen, Peni, and I were sucked into the portal? You refused to help us and to see you here means you were near the portal."
Felicia grew serious, "While you and the others were busy dealing with Doctor Octopus, I was going to sneak around and gather any intel on where Peter might have gone." Felicia then gave Peter a sad look, "After a few months of searching, I thought you just abandoned us one day. That you just quit. Stupid thought, I know, but I wouldn't have blamed you. For all the things you have done for New York just to get labeled a menace by the biggest news company and have half of New York hate you, I would have walked away too. But when I saw the X-Men and Bruce get zapped away by Doc Ock…" Felicia's face hardened with determination, "I knew you were alive somewhere. I just needed to find out how to get to you and bring you home."
Everyone, minus Miles and Gwen, was stunned, especially Peter and Asui. For Peter, it was to see how deeply Felicia cares for him. The two have an interesting relationship but Peter never took Felicia as one who would spend time looking for him seeing as Felicia has her own set of personal issues to resolve as well as Felicia herself not wanting to overexpose herself to his rogue's gallery. It touched Peter to know how much Felicia did care and even caused him to flush a deep red.
As for Asui, this was admirable but also caused her to be…jealous. It was admirable that Peter had a selection of friends who would go to great lengths to help him even if they believed he was gone. Yet it was infuriating to see the look Felicia had. She knows those eyes because Asui has them too, and to see Peter's reaction only made the assumptions about these two grow ever more prominent in her head. If it's true, then why did Peter lie to her? Was there something between these two before Peter arrived? Asui doesn't know and right now isn't the time to think these thoughts.
"Thank you, Felicia," Peter spoke with the utmost sincerity, "I'm sorry I never came back. I'm sorry to you two as well," Peter glanced between Gwen and Miles, "If I could go home, I would have. I would have done it in a heartbeat, but I wasn't able to go home. Even now, I still can't….well…we can't." Miles, Gwen, and Felicia grimace. They knew it was true considering Peter is still in this world. "But I promise that one day we will go home. We will be able to return to our families and friends and go back to our normal lives. If we can come here then there is no reason for us to go back."
Deku, Asui, and Yaoyorozu were cut by those words. Whether Peter meant to hurt them or not didn't matter. Go back home? Normal lives? It's like Peter dismissed the three and their world by his promise. The three figured Peter was saying this to put his old friends at ease, but if he does go back home….will he stay there and remain there forever?
A question long thought gone had re-emerged in the trio's head: Would Peter choose his world over theirs if given the chance?
After getting Felicia's suit, gear, and proper clothing, and finally eating a steamy hot meal, everyone was called to a private room to discuss departure times and introduce the newcomers.
While Miles, Peni, and Gwen kept their introductions simple, Felicia couldn't help but add her usual erotic aura with her words and body language. Making the boys blush was fun but also useful in exposing the perverts, and the purple-balled one was just that. A new toy to play with.
Putting herself in charge, Midnight told everyone they were leaving the island in an hour and a half so everyone had to get ready and be back before the departure time. Anyone who wasn't here by the scheduled time will face punishment back at the school decided by their teacher, Aizawa. As for the newcomers, they would have to follow David Shield so he may create their new identities in this world to avoid being classified as aliens and being put on a wanted list by the world's government.
Once the allotted time passed, everyone was present in the room and waiting. It was announced that Miles, Gwen, Felicia, and Peni would be riding on a separate jet with Dr. Banner overseeing them. This slightly upset Uraraka but was comforted by Asui who agreed to keep her company on the way home.
Before Midnight could speak, Jiro, with concern, asked, "What about Kaminari?"
The room's atmosphere turned into ice. Throughout the day everyone had made a visit or two to Kaminari's room and asked for updates, all of which were the same: He is stable but Kaminari has shown no signs of awakening.
"He will be transported by a medical helicopter with me watching over him," Midnight explained and glanced around the room, "I know you're all worried kids, we are too, but everyone is doing the best they can for Kaminari. We have to wait for him to wake up no matter how long it takes." Midnight took a breath and remembered she was supposed to have a meeting on the helicopter about Kaminari's status as a UA student moving forward. Honestly, it made Midnight sick to her stomach about the possibility of 'medical discharge' being thrown around after Kaminari put his life on the line to save Jiro. The student shows an act of real heroism and his reward after awakening is being tossed away like dirt. It wasn't fair, but Midnight has no power to keep him in 1-A nor does Aizawa. Damn, this hero commission and their rules!
Midnight surveyed the students. They all looked sad but hopeful. This wasn't right; this wasn't how their vacation was supposed to go. And to think it's only a few of them that know Kaminari's condition and not the whole class. Class 1-A was meant for the best of the best in terms of students, yet this class was already being tested as if they were pro heroes already. Not to mention the constant rumors and spats being thrown their way by the other U.A. classes behind their backs outside of Neito Monoma from Class 1-B.
Getting a grip on herself, Midnight cleared her throat and firmly spoke, "Are there any questions?" With no one raising their hands, Midnight smiled and gestured towards the door, "Alright students, go to your assigned jets and get seated. I'll see you all soon." And with that, everyone dispersed into sections and began to chatter amongst themselves with the group that they were assigned for the trip back home.
Peter, Deku, Larua, and Eri all stood in front of the jet as Deku looked around in search of his mentor. "I haven't seen All Might all day. I wonder where he is." Deku asked aloud with his answer coming to him momentarily.
Coming out of the gates came All Might, David, and Melissa Shield with The Shields carrying briefcases and David hauling a crate.
With a sad smile, David turned to his former comrade, "It was nice seeing you again, Toshinori. Aside from the attack, I had a great time catching up with you."
All Might smiled back, "I couldn't agree more, David. I feel like I missed a lifetime of events since the last time I saw you and Melissa in person." All Might extend his hand as David shook it before the two pulled each other into a quick hug. Once separated, All Might glanced over to Melissa and hugged her, "You were really brave, Melissa. If you wanted to become a hero, you would be one with that heart of gold. I am very proud of you, and I know you'll become a great inventor just like your father." All Might praised and released the hug.
Melissa, a bit teary-eyed, smiled brightly and wiped away her tears, "Thank you, Uncle Might! I'll do my best to supply the best support items for Deku, Spider-Man, and all the future heroes of U.A. High School! I mean I have to supply them for the US first, but I'll ensure Class 1-A gets some neat gadgets!" Melissa smiled and turned to Deku, "You still have that Full Gauntlet?"
Deku rolled up his sleeves and revealed the red band underneath, "I do."
"Well I'll trade you for something better," Melissa smiled as her dad and she walked towards the four. Melissa opened her briefcase and revealed a brand new Full Gauntlet, "I made two of the bands, and since yours is already worn, I figured I just hand over this mint one." Deku smiled and began to replace the old band with the new one as David popped open his briefcase to reveal a brand new item to Peter.
Peter looked inside and revealed to him a red and blue forearm armor piece, "This will be very useful to you, Spider-Man." David said with a wink. "When you equip this device, you'll be able to hack devices, decrypt codes, and call for aid using a private signal. This device was made for stealth usage and can withstand EMPs. It will also ignore most electronic interferences. I call it: The Divine Tool." Peter gently took the device and glanced over it. "Inside you'll find the blueprint for repairs and how to upgrade it. I was barely able to create this due to a lack of an unnamed element used specifically for this device. You won't be able to create another."
Peter smiled, "That's a challenge I'm willing to take. Thank you, David."
David handed Peter the briefcase as well as, surprisingly, the crate, "This is full of gadgets and blueprints for U.A.'s support class. After experiencing firsthand how dangerous these villains are becoming, UA will need all the help it will get. Normally I would send the items, but due to my contract with the US Government, I'll have to 'gift' the items instead to avoid legal troubles." David chuckled.
"Oh Hatsume will be happy to hear this," Peter said as the crate was taken by a worker and hauled immediately into the cargo section of the jet.
The U.A Alumni took several steps back as David and Melissa wiped away more tears that were forming in their eyes. "Thank you! All of you!" Melissa shouted as the students smiled with Eri and All Might looking at Deku, Peter, and Laura.
"Have a safe trip home and good luck!" David shouted as the U.A Alumni waved and said their goodbyes as they boarded the jet for the ride home.
It was a rather quiet trip back. Everyone tended to themselves with some small talk here and there, but it was mainly peaceful on the way back.
Peter was inspecting the Divine Tool and making up ideas on how to utilize it to its fullest potential while also brainstorming upgrades for it. Deku, meanwhile, was aiding Peter in coming up with upgrades. Deku had his notebook out and was writing up ideas and shared a few with Peter when he believed them to be beneficial.
Meanwhile, All Might, Laura, and Eri were sleeping. All Might was sleeping in his private seat whilst Laura was asleep in the back with Eri curled up in Laura's chest resting as well. With how everything went on I-Island, it was nice to be going back home despite the dangers that are returning in The League of Villains and Shie Hassaikai. These two groups will prove to be a problem time and time again, but like how all fights have gone recently, the young heroes believe they will prevail over them as that is what heroes do.
However, what the heroes are not aware of is what happens during their time away. And just how 'welcoming' villains can be when the heroes make their return.
The plane carrying All Might and the younger generation of heroes landed calmly on the runway and came to full stop moments later. With a clear signal to exit, All Might and the rest of the heroes gathered their belongings and began to walk out in a single line with All Might leading and Peter being the last.
Just as Peter took his first steps onto the stairs, his Spider-Senses flared up as he looked to his left and saw a missile heading right toward them! With little time to act, Peter used all of his strength to push everyone off, scattering them all onto the floor. Ignoring everyone's complaints, and Laura's cursing, Peter used his web slingers to pull himself back into the plane and shot another two webs to launch himself into the cockpit. As Peter grabbed the startled pilot, Peter saw a glimpse of the rocket just a few seconds away. Using his web shooters once more, Peter catapulted himself back-first through the window of the plane and held onto the pilot in his sternum as they both fell out of the plane just as the rocket made contact and destroyed the plane in a fiery explosion.
Quick on his feet, Deku grabbed Laura, who was hanging onto Eri, and All Might by their collars, and jumped several feet away from the explosion to get to a safe distance. Peter, on the other hand, used himself as a human shield to cover the pilot from the debris and flames. Peter wailed in agony as his back was scorched and cut up by the fire and metal that was flying everywhere. Knowing he was in a life-or-death situation, Peter willed himself to shoot one more web at a nearby building and flung himself and the pilot to safety. Peter stood up and watched the plane set off a second explosion, this one being bigger than the last with the plane's fuel tank now combusting.
"PETER!" Deku shouted as he darted around the plane to make sure his friend was okay.
"Midoriya! Peter!" All Might shouted as he stood up and ran towards the two as emergency responders arrived to evacuate everyone with sirens blaring everywhere.
Laura, tightly gripping a frightened and near-crying Eri, watched the plane burn as she lashed out internally. The League were waiting for them to arrive and hoped to wipe out everyone! This had to be the League because the Shie Hassaikai wouldn't risk getting Eri killed given how dead set they were on taking her when they invaded Peter's apartment.
Laura knew this was an attempt to kill everyone, but if that failed, it was also a message from the League. They knew where they were and none of them were safe.
All for One watched through the eyes of a scout Nomu, one camouflaged in the trees, with a grin. Although the missile failed to kill anyone, the message remained the same. The heroes, no matter where they were or went, were not safe.
Telepathically telling the Nomu to return home, All for One deactivated his quirk right as his danger sense went off. All for One turned his head to the side as a man in the shadows stood in his lair.
"The Lizard failed to perform, Doctor. Taskmaster had to retreat after everything went off course." All for One criticized his partner.
"Blame that fool for taking the quirk amplifier and using it on himself," Dr. Octavious said with an angry tone and expression, "He failed to follow the plan and have Taskmaster bring it to me for duplications. If anyone is to blame, it is you for hiring such an idiot to take charge of an important mission!"
All for One's face fell into fury, "You speak out of turn, Doctor! Mind your tongue or I'll-"
"You'll what?" Dr. Octavious cut off All for One with his tentacles getting ready for a fight, "Must I remind you that I am the one that gave you back your power! I am the one that built your life support and the cybernetics that grant you the ability to use your quirk once more!" Dr. Octavious then pulled out a remote and pressed a button. With a loud hiss, All for One began to struggle to breathe and hacked into his mask. In fury, All for One lashed his hands out toward Dr. Octavious in an attempt to utilize his Rivet Stab to send his black tendrils toward the Doctor.
In response, Dr. Octavious used his tendrils to grab All for One by the neck and slammed him into the floor before sending him into a wall. Without letting up, Dr. Octavious sent All for One into the ceiling and let him fall towards the floor before pinning him to the ground with his limbs held down by the robotic tendrils.
Dr. Octavious lowered himself toward All for One with a cocky smile, "Have you been reminded?"
All for One did not speak nor nod his head in response. He'd soon rather die than submit to this man!
"Your ego will get you killed, All for One," Dr. Octavious spoke and released All for One, "I would have killed you so long ago if you weren't so useful with those quirks of yours, and your knowledge of this world is unmatched. Your usefulness outweighs the trouble you bring me." Dr. Octavious suddenly plunged one tentacle into All for One's side as All for One let out a pained groan. "That's for meddling with my technology; I know you've had that excuse of a scientist researching ways to remove my hold on you. And I know you've tried using some quirks as well. I still promise to uphold my end of the bargain by bringing you more villains to enroll in your League of Villains, but only if you aid me in killing Spider-Man and his friends from my dimension. And of course our original deal, but I don't need to remind you of that."
Dr. Octavious removed his tentacle from All for One as he walked back to the opened portal behind him. "Just remember who is in charge, All for One. That is all I ask from you." Dr. Octavious pressed the button once more as All for One sucked in a huge breath of air and coughed wildly from a lack of oxygen with a recovering quirk activating to heal his wounds. Without looking back, Dr. Octavious entered the portal to leave All for One alone to tend to himself.
