Chapter 129

I shrugged, "I had a working model to dismantle and learn from. Wasn't that hard."

"Oh really? And where exactly did you get it?"

"The Stark expo," I replied sitting down on the jet's seats, "when the Hammer drones were busy attacking my friends I took a few of them down and stripped them of anything useful."

"You built that off of Hammer tech? How hasn't it exploded yet?"

I rolled my eyes, though Tony couldn't see it. "I made some improvements. It won't explode if that's what you think will happen. The Palladium should last three times longer, won't need a replacement for some time now."

"How did you-" Tony stopped as suddenly thunder rumbled outside.

Cap noticed Loki covering in fear, "what's the matter? Afraid of a little lightning?"

"No, but I'm not fond of what comes next," Loki replied as suddenly there was a thud on the jet roof.

"Tony, helmet," I told him as I powered up my repulsors, I knew what was coming, but I had to be seen doing something.

Tony opened the jet door. "What are you doing?!" Steve cried out.

But just then a tall blond man with grey and silver armour stepped in with a giant hammer in one hand and a blood red cloak tied around his neck.

"Hey blondie, love the cape," I sent out two repulsor beams sending him flying right back outside. I blinked, hun, I totally expected him to dodge that. I turned to Tony and Steve, "that was easy."

"ARGH!" Thor came flying back in. My spider sense went' full on crazy but I couldn't dodge it. He punched me in the gut so hard I went flying into the cockpit cracking the windshield. I think a rib was broke, maybe bruised.

"Spider!" Nat cried out as she quickly pulled me down from the window.

"Spider!" Iron man cried out. I saw through narrowed eyes filled with pain Thor releasing Loki and flying out.

"Are you okay son?" Steve asked as he quickly came up and helped me get off the jet's control panel.

"I-I'm fine," I coughed out, "it's just a scratch."

"That bastard!" Iron man roared a he took off.

"Stark! Wait!" Steve growled before turning to Natasha, "can you take care of him?"

Nat nodded, "yes, but you don't want to take these guys on Cap. They come from legends Cap. They're basically Gods."

"There's only one God ma'am," Steve put on a parachute, "and I'm pretty sure he doesn't dress like that." He jumped out of the plane.

"Damn, they get to have all the fun," I groaned out, slowly getting back on my feet. Before suddenly feeling woozy. My head started spin, "Nat, I think Thor hit a little harder than I thought."

"Spider? Spider?!"

I fell forwards and fell unconscious, Nat crying out my name was the last thing I heard.

Some time later:

I woke up in a hospital bed with my helmet removed and my costume opened up to reveal a bandaged chest.

I groaned and got up, how long was I out.

"Careful Peter," I heard someone call out. I looked and saw a beaten and bruised Natasha sitting between my bed and another's this one with an unconscious Hawkeye. I blinked, oh no, I slept through so much!

"What happened," I asked immediately.

Nat sighed and explained.

The plot went by the same way, with a few minor differences. Tony was pissed Thor had knocked me out cold, while the asgardian did apologize, Tony really wasn't hearing it. Then everything basically went by the same way. Loki escaped, SHIELD was dead in the air, and the Avengers were broken.

I sighed, I hoped I could have prevented some of this from happening, I wished...I wished I could have changed it. But now...the Avengers were needed, they had to be born.

I got off the bed and pulled off all the wires and cords on me. Nat looked up, "you need to rest."

"Loki's out there ready to unleash an army," I put on my suit, my glowing black spider webs coming alive, "I don't intend to sit around doing nothing."

"You were attacked by a God, you can rest Peter, let-"

"-Don't you dare fucking finish that sentence," I growled, "I'm not some child to be swaddled Natasha, I may not be a trained killer like you, but I ain't a coward." I put on my mask and walked out.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

I looked over my shoulder, "right now there are two very broken men that could potentially save the world. I'm going to kick their asses. Make sure your buddy's alright."

I walked away towards the place where I knew Tony and Steve would be. The Hulk's giant prison, that Loki had tricked Thor into. It was empty now. I walked in and saw Tony and Steve looking somber.

"Well isn't this just the saddest gathering of old men," I quipped.

They both immediately turned to me and stared in surprise.

"Spider! You're awake!" Steve smiled, "how are you feeling?"

I patted myself, "a bit bruised. Thor really packs a punch."

"He's sorry about that," Steve tried to apologize.

"Sorry's not going to cut it," Tony growled.

I turned, there was blood on the walls. I looked at, "is that where he died?"

Tony couldn't bring himself to look, he just nodded. Steve sighed, "was he married?"

"No….there was ah, a... cialist I think," Tony spoke.

"I'm sorry….he seemed like a good man," Steve replied.

"He was an idiot."

"Why? For believing?"

"For taking on Loki alone."

"He was doing his job."

"He was out of his league," Tony looked down at the cell hanger and glared, "he should have waited."

"Sometimes there isn't a way out Tony."

"Right, forgot that point."

"Is this the first time you lost a soldier?"

"We are not soldiers!"

"Yes, we are," I called out. They turned to look at me. I looked at them, "but we aren't Fury's soldiers. No, we fall under a different banner," I knew what had to be done. Tony was too angry, not like in the movie. He needed to be talked to, to let him understand.
