It is truly amazing how people can look upon the same sight and get wildly different conclusions.

His earliest memory was him and his brother, atop their dead mother. They were suckling, with uim keept a firm grip on the tinier baby. He then sensed people approaching them; strong people. People with things that he felt were rightfully his. But there were so many….and he was hungry; leaving the womb had been exhausting.

So for now? He stopped his first meal and yet his brother have a bigger share than usual as he observed.

SPIDER

The Foot took this as a sign: The babies' mother, a drunkard, had wandered onto their ancestral home-ground. They hadn't expected a twin, but they'd happily take it as well. With that, they reached for him, only to pause at his glare.

"…Okay, that baby just SCREAMS evil." Rocky said aloud for everyone. Adam, Aisha and Kat nodded in agreement.

"Mistress? Is this truly necessary?" Kat asked.

Normally, she would be all for helping an orphaned child. Heck, she spied the other baby; tiny and hungrily suckling as if this was the first time it was allowed to take what it needed/wanted; the poor thing looked boarderline premature. But its twin? He reminded her of Pazuzu from the original Exorcist movie.

In other words: Kat felt she should NOT allow the baby to be in the Foot. A sentiment Rocky, Adam and Aisha felt.

Being an older brother himself, Adam felt a need to help the twin children…but something about the bigger one made himk pause and remember Rocky's question. And then he thought of his sister living in a world with such a potential threat.

Before anyone could do otherwise, the baby suddenly leapt upwards as spear like bones burst from his arms and legs, giving him a landing…on a Hand ninja's head, caving it in. The infant then leapt for Bebop and placed his hand on him, expecting something….that never came.

Unimpressed, it leapt onto Rocksteady…same response. It spied the human fly scientist and glared at him as if saying:

'You better have what I'm looking for.'

"Already so quick and vicious…" Karai noted delightfully, quickly killing a lead Hand ninja who was about to speak against such actions.

"That's my cue to leaaaa….!" Stockman started, only for a bright flash and several Putties to appear, surrounding Rito.

"I'll be taking that future little mon….Holy moly that kid is creepy." Rito began only for his own eyes to meet the child. And for the first time since his dad's training; he felt something akin to fear.

Said baby now leapt at Rito and touched his hand. Unlike with the bumbling mutant duo? This time something DID happen:

"W-what the…?!"

Rito felt his energy being drained and flowing into the baby, who smiled sadistically. The Putties raced to aid their master…but were soon dead on the ground.

All the while? Karai smiled, visions of the Foot Clan becoming even greater than under her father filling her head….

Just then, several other players entered the area: Spider-Man, the Morphing and Hero Rangers, X-Factor, those accursed Turtles, the Defenders and Alita…along with a second Yellow Sabertooth Ranger and a…Spider-Girl? The baby turned his attention to the newest arrivals, making them freeze as well. He then spied and focused on Dani, who he jumped onto. Rahne was quick to punt him off and spied her girlfriend shivering

"He…he…he tried to…"

No one had time to react, as the familiar signs of illusions grew just in time for Roberto to feel his powers draining…as the baby suddenly lit aflame and began to fly.

"IS HE STEALING MUTATIONS?!" Luke gasped.

"That's his Quirk! ALL FOR ONE!" The Blue Hero Ranger explained. "He can steal, merge and give Quirks!"

"Not true! We're okay!" Bebop added

"Probably you're weren't born with a power, ribbit."

Hearing that? Aisha and Adam's minds were made up: They were NOT letting this bnaby touch Rocky…who it then lacthed ontop before Kat blasted him away

Rocky collapsed into Adam's arms and then realized…

"I…I'm…I'm not as hungry anymore…And…" He became worried. "Not as strong! That baby really DID steal my powers!"

While the Foot Quadro were now close to leaving, hearing and seeing all this gave Baxteer Stockman some ideas:

'I bet Alex Waybright and or Bastion would be interested in this kid…'

While he had been scheming, Karai ordered her Foot Ninja and the remaining Hand ninja to inject themselves with Mutagen, resulting in a myriad of monstrous new appearances…but the baby didn't care; now knowing people had to be BORN with what he desired.

"Petey... I think we bit off more than we can chew." Trini said as well over 200 hundred Ninjas and Mutants corner the group.

"They have a T-rex. Why do they have a god damned T-rex?!" Zack and Roberto asked together.

"BECAUSE THE LATEST STRAIN OF MUTAGEN IS BULL…!" Dontello cried out, Alita and the defenders racing forward as the swarm of enemies get closer…

"They're ruining my image!" Jason glared.

"Babe! Not the time!" Kimberly shrieked as she readied to fight.

Suddenly, a blue, yellow and red blur appeared out of nowhere.

"Anyone miss me?" Sonic asked as Peter smiled.

"Oh you guys are toast!" Zack and Billy hollered together as Izuku nodded.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Tsuyu squealed under her Green Ranger mask, pointing to the latest trio as she pulled on Himiko's arm. "THEY! HERE! IN FLESH! SO COOOL!"

"Hedgehog. Who are these warriors?" The red echidna asked as Sonic rolled his eyes.

"THERE ARE MORE OF HIM?!" Kim asked as the fox with two tails shot a boomerang at a few of the ninjas as the red echidna slammed a few of the mutants into the wall as Bebop battled him.

"That's what I'm talking about!" Peter said as all hell began to break loose.

And throughout it all? The flying and flaming baby watched from above, eagerly trying to find the most useful or powerful ability to steal.

SPIDER

"Guys, I don't have any superpowers or any fancy gadgets. A little help?" April said as the two tailed fox handed her a blaster and a boomerang.

"Here!" The fox said

"Thanks... Little weird orange fox thing!" April said as the fox flew into a few Ninjas.

"And where have you been?" Jason asked.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you!" Sonic said as Jason punched a Ninja through the roof.

"Forgive me, fellow warriors. I, Knuckles, am to blame."

"Well, that and Robotnik and G.U.N." Tails noted.

"Jase, mutant 12 o clock!" Billy said.

"MUTATE!" The New Mutants corrected.

"Sorry!"

Meanwhile, Karai had found herself fighting the Blue Hero Ranger, who seemed particularly angry with her.

"You could do so much with your skills and you decide to help people? Secure the legacy of a monster like the Shredder?"

"Bold to speak of legacy when you are a Ranger." Karai noted

"Only MY family has been fighting evil on par with Thanos and worse for generations while you peddle drugs, steal from the weak and cause mayhem! Also, I'm Quirkless." Izuku recounted, startling the kunochi as she realized: …She was fighting someone just like her….

Suddenly, a streak of flame made the two leap back as the baby All for One glared at Karai; he wasn't sure why…but the blue ranger reminded him of his brother for some reason…And he did NOT apprieacte those who harmed his possessions.

Billy meanwhile, had caught Stockman with some help from Tails…and was thoroughly disappointed.

Just then, something burst from the ground: A robot with a katana along its back, decorated with the symbols of a bear, falcon, frog, crane and wolf.

All activity ceased as they turned to the newcomer, who simply stated:

"I am Ninjor."

Ninjor, surveying the area, spied All for One.

"….By Kami, I've not sensed something so evil since Nobunaga and the Oni."

"SEE?!" Rocky pointed out. "If the somehow ancient robot says the kid is bad news…!"

"…He's my grandfather." Izuku said.

"….Can't say I see any resemblance." Adam said.

Suddenly the sky crackled and odd noises filled the air.

"Oh, NOW what?!" Virtually everyone asked. The only upside? Whatever was happening was NOT All for One's doing.

Suddenly a portal appeared over Peter and sucked him upwards, along with Trini, Minh and Mayday.

SP-PR

Mayday had quickly cushioned Minh as they began to fall, embracing for whatever impact would come…Then she felt two more pairs of arms engulf her in an embrace.

She teared up under her mask as she realized what was happening: Peter and Trini were cushioning their future daughters on pure instinct.

The landing was actually not too bad. What was were the first things they heard:

"THIS JUST IN…SPIDER-MAN HAS JUST BEEN KILLED."

That rose so many questions. Where were they? When were they?!

"…Why am I blonde?!" Peter asked.

No more long waits, now! I MEAN IT!

"Anybody want a peanut?"

DANG NABBIT BRAIN., STOP BEING FUNNY AND LET ME FOCUS!

Sorry.

Sorry. Sorry for taking so long: This arc. it seems, was TOO ambitious on my part: the two (budding three) Ranger teams, the TMNT, Team Sonic, the New Mutants AND the Defenders? Maybe not of Endgame level, but still rather ambitious.

If I finally do get it sorted out, I'll post a one-shot detailing it.

So in lieu of a truly epic battle, a lot of this chapter instead focused on All for One, showcasing how even as a newborn, he was twisted. This is also to help set up down the line that, yes, this guy will become one of the most successful supervillains of all time.

Hopefully I did that some justice.

And in case anyone is wondering (it will be shown later on), since I cut off the battle to go into the NEXT arc? A surprise flood swept baby All For One, his brother and their mother's body away, with the heroes deciding to at least push the Foot, Hand and Rito away from pursuing them.

Also, Rocky is now 'normal', his hunger based mutation absorbed by All for One.

Ultimately, the Hero Rangers have NOT quite prevented All for One's eventual rise…but the additional faces involved at his birth WILL result in him being different in 'My RangerAcademua; than he is in MHA canon; a wee bit more affable.

Also managed a name drop for some of the villains in 'Calamity Factor'; the new head of the 'Friends of Humanity' Alex Waybright and Bastion himself…with Stockman possibly getting a bigger role in that story as well.

Finally, I am about to post a rough guide and timeline for all the stories in this project, both out and in development.

For now? we begin the first 'Spider-Verse' arc, which in turn starts something justimtaylor has been looking forward to for quite some time: something I like to call 'the Multiverse Saga'; where a LOT of the other series we've had ideas for crossing over with come into play

See you soon!
