Ultimate Fallout pt. 5

"Stall. Don't let them know how bad off you are. Don't let them know you're about to fall on your face." Peter, who was unmasked, thinks as he does his best to stand without falling over.

"Okay, here's how it's going to go...Shield and the other super heroes are right behind me. I'm talking all of them...Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, the giant guy, the purple arrow dude, and that guy with the thing that, uh, blinks..." Peter says doing his best to try and remember but it was escaping him out of pain. "If you guys just, y'know, surrender, I'll make sure they know. I'll make sure you-"

"Bullshit." Electro calls out tauntingly.

"Excuse me?" Peter asks.

"He's hurt." Electro adds.

"You're right. Look at him. He's a mess." Kraven agrees.

"Ha! You're right." Sandman chuckles. "Get him!"

They all lunged and moved towards him, Peter dodged to the side kicking his body weight into the nearest fire hydrant. The water shot up out of the ground intensely, he aimed it towards the small group of villains. Electro and Sandman got knocked back but Kraven stood through it all. Peter webbed Electro's chest ripping him toward him before landing a punch to his jaw. As Electro fell backwards unconscious, Peter kneeled down slowly, trying not to move around to much.

"Ow. That was about all I have in me." Peter grunted in pain, a clicking noise and a flash sounded off in front of him. He looked up to find a crowd of people standing around and watching. "Uh, hi. Could someone- call 911? I'm not doing so good here. I've kinda...sorta been shot."

"Spider-Man behind you!" A few of the civilians yelled as Sandman rammed his hand into Peter creating a large cloud around him.

"Spider-Sense is blaring. I️ know, I'm in trouble, thank you. Can't see what now?"Peter webbed himself out of it swinging roughly into a nearby car, flipping off of it and into the grass.

"Hey catch!" The Vulture called out from the air behind him.

"Shit. I️ forgot he does that. Grenades hidden in the suit that's practically cheating." Peter sighs, as three circular bombs were thrown his way. "Everyone run! Go!"

Peter motioned for the crowd to run but they only moved a few feet, he did his best to web the bombs up to keep the damage contained. The explosion was bigger than he expected and threw him backwards a few feet, landing face down in the grass. He barely managed to get on his feet before he was thrown backwards by a hit from Sandman. Peter few head first into a nearby mailbox, leaning up against the car parked beside it.

"Okay...Okay...That's it...That's all I got. Where the hell are the police? The X-Men?
Anybody...The Teen Ti-" Peter groans in pain.

"Peter?" A woman says breaking him from his thought, as she approached him carefully. "You're Peter Parker, right? You're May's boy. Come with me if you want to-"

She interrupted herself staring up wide eyed at Sandman as he approached Peter from behind, menacingly. Peter turned around quickly, as a bright blast shot through Sandman sending a storm of dust all around them. Electro and Vulture were revealed as the sand died down.

"What did you do?" Vulture shouts at Electro.

"There's only so much crap I'm going to take from a 13-year-old kid who doesn't know he died ten minutes ago. If Osborn is down for the count...then this one is mine." Electro says demandingly.

"That was not cool, Electro." Sandman grunts.

"Grow a pair. You're fine." Electro retorts, rolling his eyes.

"So take the shot." Vulture says annoyed.

"I want to see his face when it happens. I want to see it!" Electro says in his usual maniac tone.

Peter sighs still leaning on the car, looking up at them all. "Electro I always meant to tell you...you were my greatest adversary and it was an honor to battle you. Oh wait...that wasn't you. I barely gave you a seconds thought."

"How you enjoyed that-ahhhhh!" Electro yells as two gun shots hit him directly in the chest, making him burst into light before falling to the ground unconsciously.

Peter looked to see who the culprit of the act was finding May standing in the middle of the road holding a gun out that was still smoking. MJ was standing slightly behind her watching in amazement. They had returned after getting a call from a neighbor that Peter was dying.

"Aunt May?" Peter got up limping over to them, holding his side.

"Oh my God. That was...the definition of-of-of awesome." Mary Jane says shocked.

"I-" May say quietly, quickly dropping the gun.

"It's okay." Peter says softly putting his hand on her shoulder.

"What did I just do?" May says, shaking lightly.

"It's okay. I got it." Peter says gently, hugging her tightly. He used her to support his weight, finding it harder and harder to do it on his own.

"Oh my God. Johnny? Rachael?" Mary Jane says running over to a unconscious Johnny Storm first. May let Peter go so he could stand on his own.

"Are they still al- Ow-" Peter says his legs giving in, falling into May, who quickly did her best to catch him.

"Peter! What happened to you?" May asks concerned.

"Well, I know I'm probably going to get grounded for this, but I've kinda sorta been shot.

"Please somebody call an ambulance!" May shouts, almost in tears.

"We called everybody." A woman says from the crowd.

"They're okay!" MJ calls out, checking Rachael's pulse. "Rachael's breathing. She's got a pulse. Both her and Johnny are okay. I think."

"Is anybody here a doctor?" May shouts.

"I'm so sorry, May." Peter cries in pain.

"What are you apologizing for?" May asks.

"I know this... isn't the life you...wanted." Peter says inhaling sharply.

"You idiot...You're my boy, my son, this is all I could have asked for." May says softly stroking his hair.

A shadow fell on her and she looked up quickly, finding the Goblin standing over them. His eyes were glowing red and smoking with anger.
