"What's her problem?" Hulk asked, staring at Sarah. "She was...sexually assaulted by one of Moon's clones." Peter said to him. "My child...by someone wearing my face." He closed his eyes. Hulk closed his fists. "Changing targets then. I got a clone and his creator to pull apart." He looked at Blink. "Can't your Tallus tell us anything about him?" "It isn't chiming in. He isn't active right now. "But we know he has ties to the bad Cybertronian element." Blink looked at him. "The insurrectionist, Shockwave." "Take me to New York...I'll find what I need to go kill this motherfucker." Hulk told her. "He has a city sized Dinosaur at his beck and call." Sabretooth said. "Your point? Certainly Creed, you've met strong versions of me. Did you know...one time I was called Worldbreaker? Because I literally could break a planet in two. Might not be the me talking, but it is in me." Hulk stared at him. "I can take some wind up dinosaur...because...I don't have any limits." "Neither do I...and we can't have you going off on a murderous manhunt." Chris got in his way. "Outta my way Tights." He tried to push Chris, but he didn't move. For about two minutes it seemed the stood, locked in place, but for those who know better...they could tell it was two men testing the limits of their strength. Hulk eventually lifted his arm. "Fine...what is your plan Einstein?" "Glad you asked." He got on a comm. "Chris to home base. Ask Uncle Bruce to meet us at America Burger near the Planet." He looked at him. "Want lunch? I'll pay." "You are going top lunch with Batman...and am paying." Peter paused. "Can I come?" Spider-Bot sighed. "I am...going to talk patrol...away from you." He walked away from his leader. Spider-Gwen looked at Spider-Bot. "Bot? Can Sarah come with us?" asked Gwen. Sarah just looked at Spider-Bot. She seemed a bit intimidated by him as well. Peter stood far from them and turned, closing his eyes, feeling shame for not being there for Sarah. It still hurt him that her current situation was all thanks to him letting the suit control his life.

"I will ensure the safety of her with my life. No symbiote can beat me. I am made partially to counter them." Spider-Bot said to Spider-Gwen. "I swear on my Father's grave."
"Right...Peter is dead in his world. Damn Mad Max scenario." Ben said.

"Right...Peter is dead in his world. Damn Mad Max scenario." Ben said. Gwen looked at Sarah. "Easy, Sarah... he won't hurt you. You can let go of me now." said Gwen. Sarah shook her head like a frightened child and hugged her mother even more tightly. "Sorry... she is kinda afraid of anyone related to Peter that isn't me, Gwanda or Joyce." said Gwen. "I should be the dead Peter." thought Peter after he heard Ben's words. He then walked out. Once Sarah saw Peter walk out, she relaxed a bit, but still felt uneasy with Spider-Bot and the others.

Ben followed. "No, the world would be worse if you were dead, and don't BS me. I have been Emo Peter...clone, but still Emo Peter." He put his hand on his shoulder. "Seriously...it will take time. It isn't any of our fault's Peter...it's Osborn, it's Moon, it's that freak Kasady wannabe. You're no more at fault for her wrongdoings than you were my life before we met. Sure if you knew, you would have helped. That is enough for me, and in time...she will see that. But there is no magic hand wave here."
He looked at him. "I can't be the voice that Aunt May was Peter...but if you try with me, I can be something close. I want to be there for you. Let's see what Kent and Banner cook up, and end this guy. If we can get like...freaking Superman on our side, maybe these Decepticons he ran to can get a taste of their own medicine?"
-------
Understandable...I will work with her." Spider-Bot nodded.

Peter looked at Ben and put his hand on top of his. "Thanks, Ben..." said Peter. "But it still hurts to know that my daughter is afraid of me thanks to them. I just... I feel like I totally failed as a father... and it makes me afraid for Joyce's safety." --- Sarah looked at her mother. "He's a good lad. Just try and hang out with him... maybe he'll be able to make you see that your oul' fella isn't a bad guy after all." said Gwen. Sarah nodded slowly and then walked a bit nervously towards Spider-Bot.

"The feeling is good, the reasoning dumb. You didn't know...and that...we can damn sure avenge, to quote a pretty boy in a tin can we know." Ben took off his mask. "Change the meaning of this face. We owe it to the sideshow of uses out there...and those we lost. What would Warp say to us if we let a few bad clones get the best of us?" Ben said, recalling the clone Arachnarok so callously murdered. "He would be pissed and tell us old timers to wisen up."
-----
"I...would be your brother...of a sort. Family is important to me. I lost so much of it...I would not harm what remains. If this the world as it will be from here on out...we are all in this together. I..." Spider-Bot looked at Gwen. "I will break the code this one time. Spider Carnage must be destroyed. That is a mockery, an animal wearing the face of a good man."
"No, you leave the grimdark shit to Uncle Wade. Peter wants you to have a happy life away from that mess. You do that...and I will accept it as payment...for a hit job on him." Deadpool spoke up. "No one does a Parker bad and gets away with it. Not while I am alive...and since I am effectively immortal, it is a hell of a whoopsie on Moon's part." He looked at Sarah. "I will take him out. I promise...as a father myself, and as the first host of Venom from planet Earth, I will end that fake and his knock off symbiote."
"AHEM!!"
Deadpool turned to a manifested Amok. "You are an homage Junior. Eddie would be proud. Face it, even Cletus would look at this guy and sashimi him."
"Race you to him Deadpool. If we get him first..." Amok raised a fist. "We possess the genes of a Flash. The Speed Force is within us. You have a heck of a race on your hands."
"Kid, you off this turkey...I will pimp your home out with a hell of a TV and such." Deadpool said.
"Nah...we are good. We just can't abide this shit." Amok turned. "We are like our source...a Lethal Protector of innocents." He then retracted and showed of his arm. "And we relate to torture. Jackal was no fun time." Gregory said showing the burns. "I'm not comparing my external scars to your internal scars Miss. I just want you to know...I get it."
"We get it." Amok himself spoke. "No one...should be scared of people...for that kind of reason. Someone like you...should be happy."
Gregory smiled. "Darn Right Amok."

"You're right... he would tell us to keep going... even if it is hard." said Peter. He looked at Ben and smiled. "Thanks for the support... brother." said Peter. "I can always count on you to bring in the inspiration." --- Sarah looked at them. She couldn't believe that they had so much loyalty to Peter. She then shyly grabbed Spider-Bot's hand. "B-brother?" said Sarah nervously. She then looked at the Symbiote clones. "So... you too?" asked Sarah.

"Hey...I owe you for all that I'm the Real Peter shit." Ben laughed at the thought.
--------
Spider-Bot squeezed. "I might have had one like you...if it wasn't for the war. Because of Knull."
"Torture, testing, attempts to bring me to heel. Cyber-Spider broke a few ribs after we tried to escape once. And Arachnarok...fucking Arachnarok." Gregory said.
"He was...something." Furor spoke up. "To say nothing of the one that joined him...Spider-Venom. A literal hybrid of Eddie and Peter. Brown nosing putz." He punched a wall. "I could break his neck for selling us out. That attempt...he bought his safety with our suffering."

"That's true... still, it's kinda weird that we had to go through that... but it really brought us closer." said Peter. --- Sarah looked at them sadly, feeling for them. "I... I'm really sorry about that." said Sarah. Meanwhile, a diminutive bug lands on Joyce's neck. It stings her neck. A device goes into her. The bug then flies away. "Soon, Peter Parker will be history... killed by his own girl." uttered Bombshell as he flew away. He then started giving Joyce mental commands. "Now, human... go to the kitchen and take the sharpest knife you can find."

"Yeah...I mean that and punching Kaine...Jackal....goddamn Judas Traveller." Ben said as he recalled those days.
-------------
"Yeah i know...sucks to share the same genes as that loser." Amok laughed.
Furor smiled.
Joyce broke off and walked away quietly, heading tot he kitchen.

That's the kind of fun I have when I wear it... but then, I remember what happened to Gwen... and doubts rise again." said Peter. --- Sarah chuckled a bit, being amused by their remarks. "Good... now, get the knife and put it somewhere that doesn't attract attention." said Bombshell in Joyce's mind. "After that, go to your lover boy and tell him that you want to speak to him privately."

"Gwen happened because of Peter Parker. You forget it's the people who see you as you and not Spidey that hurt you the most. Case in point...us clones. That happened because you were the face behind the mask. Before he knew you were Spidey...I think he intended to do some Chameleonesque crap with my predecessor. But then...his top student sat up." Ben looked at Peter.
"I mean you don't see Looter beating up Flash because he knows you and knows he is Spidey's biggest fan. Or Electro.. But the Goblin and Miles stuff...that isn't Spider-Man's fight. That is Peter vs Miles vs Norman vs Eddie...at times. You could quit, movie to Tallahassee and change your name to Irving Forbush...doesn't create a magic bubble that would keep Norman from kidnapping Betty or MJ to hurt you. Because...it's never been about the mask. It's you." Ben looked him in the eye. "Because you never broke...and they hate you for it...at least...you never STAY broken. That is why you can't stop being Spider-Man. That is the only part of the mask they care about. You quitting will validate them...and then they look to top that. Spider-Man is the line that says no further...and you are on the other side to block them. It is the only way you CAN stop more Gwen's...and yet...sometimes we will fail. All of us will fail at some point. No one is perfect. But if we are there, in the suit...fighting...there is the chance that that time won't BE the time. That is the responsibility Ben instilled on you...on us...and yet the burden is also knowing...that even he failed once. That the death might be us ourselves."
"He stopped Jessica's Dad from getting his way, from hurting Aunt May...even though he saw the gun. Even though he knew what it could mean. But what if he sat back? Like you did with him robbing the Wrestling guy? Not...not rubbing that in. Just...context. We have to not be afraid of the risks, but we have to be adult enough to know...even we can't save them all...but we can do our best...what we can for who we can. Otherwise...we do less than that brave man who is up there, holding May in his arms again, watching us. I never got to meet him, but i have his name now...both their names. I won't falter...I'm a Parker...a Reilly...a Spider-Man." He looked at Peter. "So that is why...quitting isn't an option. Not while they are free to hit Peter. Because that is who they see when they look at Spider-Man."
"God damn...when did you get to be so smart Ben?" Ben turned to see Older Peter. "Sorry, just...I...wanted to see how young me was doing. I...been here before with May." He was holding two coffee's. "I'd offer you mine but it is half drunk Ben."
"It's fine. Kinda need the break from coffee." Ben smiled.
"But what he says...it's true. Norman...up until the end...kept hitting me with all he had...because I am the son who denied him. It's not the tights. He doesn't care. Spider-Man is like his human side...a mask to him. He wants Peter to suffer." Peter walked up. "Dare I assume you also do cream and two sugars in this reality?"
----------
"Trust us. If we could not trust in Parker...we would not be here. It's like...the parts of us that are similar mentally to Eddie and Venom...trust him. Maybe it is because we lack his insane bias?" Amok pondered.
"An unbiased Brock...I'll be damned." Spider-Bot looked at them.
"So Knull...who is that?" Furor asked.
"Your God. The Progenitor of the Symbiotes. The guy who decapitated a Celestial and made Knowwhere, the hangout of us." Sasha-Vell interjected. "Sorry...kinda bored. Wasn't trying to snoop."
"Your base is the head of..." Spider-Bot tilted his head. "Curious."
-------
"No..." Joyce strained as she tried to resist.

"Well... you do have a point. I always thought the suit made me much more arrogant and cocky... Gwen wanted me to leave it... after her father died, she wanted to run away with me so no one would bother us ever again... but I... I just couldn't... I felt like the suit beckoned me to keep wearing it... however, it all went so wrong." said Peter while glancing at Ben. "Still, I now know that I have to use it to protect people... like Uncle Ben would have wished." He sighed a bit. "I guess I was never able to put the halves together. I always felt that Spider-Man wasn't me... that it was a curse thrust upon me for not preventing my Uncle's death. But sometimes, I don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse. Maybe I'll never find that out... but that won't stop me now... I'll turn my life around... I'll have a family with Joyce and I will do my best to win back Sarah's trust... even if Spider-Carnage gets in my way." --- "Well, that's kind of comforting... but just... seeing his face... it brings all those awful memories back." said Sarah. Henry looked at Carol, who was resting. "You okay, mom?" asked Henry. "I... I think so..." said Carol nervously. "I just... uuuhhh... my head is spinning." --- "Do it... you can't resist me. Kill your lover... he's a danger to you and the child you are bearing from him now. Yes... my cerebro-shell can read your thoughts. You must protect your baby." said Bombshell in Joyce's mind.

"Did she want you to remove that mask, or the mask of pride? Maybe she was trying to get you to think about what you were becoming...because that might help you get past the pain. Make you question yourself. But then the Parker guilt kicked in." Older Peter leaned back. "Trust me...quitting ends badly every time. If Venom doesn't slip back into old habits, or Norman comes knocking...it's Johnny knee deep in Skrulls, Prowler gets framed for a crime he did not commit or...someone we know getting hurt that we know an active Spidey would have stopped."
"Sounds about right. I mean yeah breaks, but retirement...didn't May Parker's one legged future Pete have a problem not staying out of the tights in spite of being down a foot to stick to walks with?" He paused. "Why didn't Reed make it so it could?"
----------
Amok turned, morphing his face into Chris Evans. "Never trust a face. These days people can look like anyone." He retracted the symbiote to reveal Gregory again. "Trust the man behind the face. That is the truth."
-----------
"You know...this is merely...a psynaptic...override. You can't...change my heart." Joyce struggled. "I...why are you doing this?"

I blame myself constantly for the deaths of Uncle Ben and Gwen... even though it wasn't me directly. I guess I have a hard time forgiving myself..." said Peter. --- "I... I'll try..." said Sarah. "It'll be hard, but I'll most certainly try." --- "Because I have to get rid of Parker. He could get in the way of our plans for the future. And we were thinking about who would be the one he would trust the most... and our ally immediately thought about you... plus, it's gonna be fun to see you kill him while trying to uselessly stop yourself." said Bombshell in Joyce's mind before laughing. "Now go... do as I told you."
