Chapter 7: From Deceit to Love (FFH)

(A/N Beck does have some powers to deflect incoming projectiles, but he doesn't have any powers to create holograms, that's why he wants E.D.I.T.H.)

"Maybe if you were better... Tony would still live..." Beck said.

Peter was on the ground looking down from the damaged Iron Man suit. He stood up.

"No." He said. Beck was suprised, that did not go according to his plan. "Tony sacrifised himself to save half universe... you are not worthy of speaking his name Imposter." Peter said with full confidence. "Come on then, finish me, let this be over."

Beck was staggered, but nevertheless he used the drones and knocked him back on some train tracks and the next Peter knew he was hit by a train and fell unconsious. He woke up in a field full of flowers, in pain. Now that Beck had control of the drones, he had become too powerful.

Peter needed help, and he knew where to ask for it...The Lin Quei and The Shirai Ryu. First he went to Japan, to Grandmaster Hanzo Hasashi, aka Scorpion to ask for his help. Grandmaster Hasashi, aware of the situation, agreed to help him defeat Beck. They both travel to Arctika to ask Grandmaster Kuai Liang for aid, but they knew he would be harder to convince, since his mistrust in the sorcerer Shang Tsung.

"Are you certain he is not Shang Tsung's minion? This could be his trick." Sub-Zero asked.

"Unlike his mentor, his soul is constructed of nothing but honor. But not even that sorcerer could match the deceit Quentin Beck is spreading. We need your help in defeating Mysterio." Scorpion said. Sub-Zero paused for a moment.

"Very well, Grandmaster Hasashi, I shall aid you against Beck." Sub-Zero said. After tracing Beck to London, they prepared for their battle.

Somewhere in London...

"MJ, I'm worried about Peter, he doesn't answer to calls or to text messages." Ned said.

"Listen, Mysterio is a fraud, the monsters we saw, they were holograms. That guy once worked at SI and wants to have revenge on Stark for dissmissing him. He aims for Peter." MJ whispered. "I don't know where he is."

Meanwhile on a roof nearby the London Bridge, a portal opened. Peter, Sub Zero and Scorpion came out of it.

"What is our plan, sorcerer?" Kuai Liang asked.

"The hologram will appear soon, but don't be fooled, it is lethal. I trust that you protect the people, and my friends." Peter explained.

"What are you going to do?" Hanzo asked.

Peter looked back at the bridge. He felt Beck's presence.

"Teach a lesson." Peter answered and all of them went to the bridge. He summoned his Kensei armor.

The decathlon team was taking photos of the bridge and Flash was doing a live on instagram. Then suddenly all the elementals came out of the river, combined to eachother. The Lin Quei and Shirai Ryu did all they could to hold the hologram, while Peter focused on Beck. He flew through the bottom glass and punched Beck in the face, breaking his orb. He stuck to the roof and held him up.

"Enough of your deceit, Beck!" Peter said.

"Yea you know this isn't perfect, but I have my contingencies, Edith." Beck said.

Suddenly a drone blasted Peter off the wall, he managed to hold himself steady and took his sword.

"Just give me the glasses Beck." Peter ordered.

"You want these? Come and get them!" Beck said.

Drones started lining up in front of him, projecting holograms so he can't see properly. Suddenly a mysterious voice called out to him.

"Earthrealms Jinsei flows within you. Let it fuel your fire." The voice said.

Peter took a deep breath. Then he lauched ahead, dodging bullets and destroying drones. He slowly moved to Beck. As a protocol to protect the user, Edith ceased fire. Beck was scared, afraid for his life he ordered her to open fire. Peter continiued to swing his sword cutting through the drones. One of them shot Beck. After defeating all the drones, Peter approached the wounded Beck who leaned on a wall.

"You lied to me Beck. I trusted you... once even he did... yet now you betray not only me, but also Stark." Peter said.

"I know... and thats the most disappointing part... You're a good person, Peter. Stark was right..." Beck said, handing Peter the glasses. "You do deserve them."

Peter still felt deceit. He ducked down. A shot was fired. Then he stabbed Beck, and took the glasses from him.

"You can't trick me anymore." Peter said.

With Mysterio defeated and his drones now under control, The Lin Quei and Shirai Ryu returned to their temples, only the grandmasters stayed.

"Is Mysterio defeated?" Kuai Liang asked.

Peter just pulled the glasses and showed it to him. He looked away to see MJ running to them. They hugged eachother like it was the end of the world.

"Thank god youre alright." Peter said.

"What happened here... and where's Beck?" MJ asked.

"He met his own bullet." Peter pulled a one-liner. "Listen I... I'm sorry for the last time, I didn't want to-" MJ pulled Peter for a kiss.

Peter's POV

This is too amazing to be reality, though I know I'm not dreaming. I've never though that I would be in love... with these powers. Even if I did, I didn't think It would be MJ once again.

Reader's POV

"I congratulate you on finding the other half of your soul, sorcerer." Scorpion informed.

"Thank you for aiding me in defeating Mysterio." Peter bowed. The grandmasters bowed in return. With that they left back to their temples.

"Well... I should probably get back to the class until they suspect something." MJ said. After that the whole class went back to New York and since Peter lived with Pepper, she came to pick them up and saw Peter and MJ holding hands. Morgan was present to and as they walked out of the airport building she ran to her "brother" and hugged him as tightly as her 6 yo hands could.

"Hey, Morgan, how are you doin'?" Peter asked her 'little sister'.

"Great!" She said.

"I see you found a friend." Pepper looked at him #SMUGFACE

"Not just a friend..." Peter said.
