After the tragic event with Ned's lola, the doctors said they're accepting visitors in the morning, so The Peters, MJ, Ned, and the blond guy who introduced himself as Eddie Brock. in the meantime, continue with their current objective. They all head inside the labotory of Peter and his friend's high school. Totally not breaking in at all, nor did they knock the security guard unconscious on their way in, nope, not at all.

 Young Peter empties the sack of broken cures on an empty table. "Okay, so... Connors, Marko, and uh..." Peter takes a moment to think about as he puts the devices, forming them into a row, while Middle Peter puts on a lab coat. "Look I think I can repair the devices for Dillion and Marko, but the others..."

"Well, I got Connors. I've already cured him once, so no big deal." Middle Peter casually tells them, taking Connor's cure. He then notices the other two giving him surprised looks. "What? It's no big deal."

"Great." Older Peter shrugs, thinking sooner is better than later.

"Yeah... That's great." Younger Peter says with a slight stutter, glancing at his older counterpart. 

"Cool, I'll also help with your friend, Y/N. I've met a Mark Allen who had a similar condition and I think I can up with something." Middle Peter mentions. With that, Middle Peter goes to repeat his secret Anti-Lizard recipe, immediately changing direction once he realizes he's going the wrong way.

"I think I can make an anti-serum for Doctor Osborn." Older Peter states to his much younger version. "Been thinking about it for a long time." Younger Peter doesn't respond, just stares at the broken cure with a hint of vengeance., which obviously gets noticed by Older Peter. "Gotta cure all of them, right?"

Young Peter quickly snaps out of it, looking back at him. "Right."

"Can't really make a cure for Eddie's...suit." Older Peter continues. "But I know of a way to burn the suit permanently so it can't bond with anyone."

"No, no, no, man, you don't need to do that." Eddie objects, not at all down with the idea of losing his powers.

"Eddie, this thing is controlling you, you're not controlling it-"

"But the voice is gone!" Eddie abruptly argues. "Alright? I'm telling you, I'm fine!"

"Eddie..." Older Peter persists, giving him a pleading look. Eddie eventually, and reluctantly sighs.

 He says nothing but walks away, considering how he would continue his life without his suit. Older Peter stares at the back of his head sympathetically, guilty about what he's done to the man's life.

Younger Peter watches as he walks away, before staring at Eddie, thinking about how Eddie and his suit sounds familiar to The Goblin's situation. He quickly turns away as Peter notices MJ staring at him. "What?" He asks her.

"It's just... three yous." She answers, gesturing at all three of them. Peter chuckles, it's like having two brothers.

   Everyone now gets to work, The two Peters from alternate dimensions put on gloves and goggles as they take the required ingredients for their respective cures

Eddie and Ned also put on goggles and gloves, hoping they can help as well. "So, are you your Peter's best friend?" Ned asks Eddie, who gives out a bitter laugh in response.

"Um... No." Eddie answers, shaking his head. "We were more like rivals where we worked. And it.... got a little personal at one point." He then tells Ned, not specifying any further.

"Were you trying to kill him?" Ned then queries. Eddie looks at him shocked by saying that out loud.

"Yeah, yeah I did." He confirms. "Me and Peter... got into a bit of a dust-up. I ended up losing my job, and my girl..." He starts. "Then this black goo... sort of... landed on top of me and used the anger I had for Peter to get revenge on him."

"What changed?" Ned then asks, curiously.

Eddie doesn't respond yet, taking a moment to find a way to explain it. "After I was brought here, I.... I don't know, all that increased anger I had was gone, I used to hear it whisper in my head, reminding me of how I lost everything... now silence." He tells Ned. "I have no idea why."

"Huh..." Ned mumbles as they both then make their way over to where the Peters are working. "Hey, have you guys thought of a way to fix Y/N, yet?"

"Yeah, this anti-alloy should include everything to turn Y/N's body back to normal." Middle Peter answers, gesturing towards the container on the table. "It's just that...  it has to be poured inside his mouth." He then says. Ned at first think he's joking, but the Peter's face says otherwise.

"Great... and he doesn't want to be cured, so that make things even more difficult." Ned mutters. Silence then takes over for a couple minutes before another thought crosses Ned's mind. He turns to the Older Peter. "Umm... so, do you have a best friend too?" He questions him.

The Middle Peter also turns to him, as Older Peter doesn't even glance as he answers the question. "I did." He responds, pausing his work for a moment.

"You... 'did'?" Ned queries. Eddie realizes who Peter's talking about and looks down, knowing he was responsible for what happened.

"He died in my arms..." Older Peter glances at Eddie for a split second. "After trying to kill me. It was heartbreaking." He says as he continues his work. Eddie looks at him shocked but doesn't say anything.

"Dude..." Middle Peter blurts out. Ned and Eddie turn to him and his expression says it all. He also went through the same thing.

Eddie closes his eyes for a moment and quietly begins singing a similar song to himself in order to cheer himself up. 

Ned plods away, considering the fact that two Peter Parkers had their best friend turn bad guy, and that Y/N went rouge. "Hey." Ned hears his Peter call to him. "Will you, uh.. run a diagnostic?"

"Yeah..." He mumbles at best, as he types on the keyboard before wearyingly walking away, much to the confusion of younger Peter.

But he doesn't really have time to think about it as another person rolls up next to him on their chair. "Hey, you okay?" MJ checks on him.

"Uh... Yeah, I'm fine." Peter answers, turning his full attention to her. "Are you okay?" He then asks in return.

"Mm-hm."  MJ hums. Peter looks at her with a bleak expression. 

"You don't deserve this..." Peter depressingly says with a shake of his head. "I brought you a life of-"

"Peter no. No, no, no, no. No. Look at me." MJ grabs his face, interrupting him. "I'm here. I'm not going anywhere. We're gonna get through this, and we're gonna get through it together. Okay?"

Peter nods, a pained but small smile develops on his face. "Okay."

"Kay...." MJ whispers. They stare at each other for a moment before touching foreheads for a blissful moment.

Unknowing to them, Middle Peter unwilling looks at both of them with a bittersweet feeling. Older Peter next to him easily takes notice of this. "Do you have someone?" He asks him.

Middle Peter snaps out of it and scoffs, continuing on working on his cure. "No. I got no time for, uh... Peter Parker stuff, y'know?" He answers, and Older Peter understandingly hums. "Do you?"

"Um, that's a little... complicated." Older Peter reluctantly tells him, wishing he had a better answer.

"No, I understand." Middle Peter lets him know. "I guess it's just not in the cards for guys like us."

Older Peter looks at him with sympathy for a second. "Well... I wouldn't give up. It took a while, but we made it work." He gives his younger bro a slice of encouragement.

Middle Peter then looks at him with a small bit of hope. "Yeah?"

"Yeah, me and... MJ." Older Peter maunders. Middle Peter blinks at him, causing him to realize he needs to retract his words. "My MJ.... which uh.... It gets confusing, huh?"

Middle Peter laughs at him. "Yeah, it does."

"Peter!" Ned apruptly calls.

"Yeah?" All Peters stand up and reply. "Oh, sorry, you mean...?" They then all point at each other as if trying to figure out who the imposter is. "Or..."

"Peter, Peter." Ned says next, not being any more specific. 

"We're all called Peter, Ned." Younger Peter reminds him.

"Yeah."

"Peter... Parker?" Ned tries again.

"Same thing." Younger Peter also points out.

"We're all Peter Parker..."

Ned lets out a sigh of frustration, before pointing at the laptop. "The computer!" He beckons them. 

Young Peter quickly stands up and dashes over to the laptop. "I'm ready!" He publicizes as he brings out a couple of folders.

"Yeah, me too." He also announces as everyone groups around the laptop. "Okay, so... Now, all we gotta do is lure these guys someplace, right? Try to cure them, while they try to... kill us, and then, send them home." He summarizes, handing Young Peter Connor's cure.

"With a magic box." Old Peter chimes in.

"Well, that's the plan." Young Peter remarks with a chuckle.

"Alien falling from the sky is starting to sound really normal right now..." Eddie chimes in as he his black suit covers him.

"Definitely agree with you there..." Middle Peter says, he then turns to Old Peter. " So are you gonna go into battle dressed as a cool youth pastor, or do you got your suit?"

Old Peter doesn't say anything, he just pulls down the collar of his shirt, showing off his Spider-Man suit. Middle Peter smiles. "Good." He says, secretly mentally slapping himself for not thinking that sooner.

Suddenly however, the door of the lab opens and everyone tenses up, the Spider-Men do a battle pose, and Eddie's suit erupts as the door fully opens and out comes.... 

A janitor...

An awkward silence erupts as the Spider-Man slowly get out of their fighting stance as they all stare at each other. The janitor takes a moment before pointing at them in recognition. 

"Haven't I seen you all somewhere before?"

_____________________________________

(A/N) Yup, short chapter again. Like I mentioned, I'm losing motivation, also it's kinda hard to write more stuff in these parts when I already concluded the debt sub-plot earlier, but thankfully we can get to the awesome fight at the construction site. I'll be able to finish this thing before it goes dead. (Boy would that be frustrating)

It might be delayed though, but I promise next chapter will be much longer, later!
