"So this is purple?"

"Are you seriously telling me there is no such thing as color in your universe?"

"no, everything is different shades of black and white. This is orange right?"

"No", me and Ham said at the same time. Guy has been trying to learn colors for the whole time me and Gwen have been on the roof.

Looking past him I saw Penny roll in on her shoes. How old is this kid again? Then with a smile she struck a pose with the finished flash drive and a huge smile. Some ones proud of their work. Peter grabbed it and hung it around his neck.

"Has anyone heard from miles?", Gwen asked

"Look he's just clearing his head, I know the kid. He's got what it takes", Peter covered for him. No one except me was buying it. Feeling agitated I shot everyone a glare, getting one back.

"Anyone want round 2?"

"No more fighting Jack!", Gwen scolded. I just slumped on the couch with my arms crossed. There goes that.

"I bet he's going to come back through that door, recharged and ready to fight", Peter said hopeful. Right when he said that Miles came running in but I could tell something was wrong. Standing up I walked up to Gwen and Peter.

"My uncle!", Miles said distraught.

"Hey, where you been?", Peter said, not realizing the state Miles was in.

"My Uncle Aaron, he's the prowler!!". Hearing that name I had a flashback to the man this universe's Peter was fighting at the prowler. Seeing him fight he was definitely skilled in hand to hand and had some advanced technology on his side. He's got to be one of Fisk's top goons.

"Slow down, Miles", Peter said, trying to help calm him down.

"He works for Kingpin. He tried to kill me!". Ok not sure how to comfort someone especially someone who just had their uncle try to kill them.

"This is a pretty hard-core origin story", Noir commented. I wanted to say something about not being right thing to say but he wasn't wrong. Thankfully Penny hit him in his arm as a response.

"It's okay. We're going to figure it out", Peter said, continuing to help Miles calm down.

"Were you followed?", Gwen asked. While they asked Miles questions and tried to calm him down I walked toward the window to see if someone did follow him. Before I could look my spider sense along with everyone's went off as we heard the doorbell go off? Before anyone could answer a tentacle came bursting through destroying the door and almost hitting May.

"Cute plate. Real homey", Liv said walking into the room or carried? not sure what to say since she's using her arms for it.

"Listen here Bitch, I'm going to rip each of those arms off and beat you with each of them. Then when I'm done I'm going to throw you off the top of this house multiple times. No one hurts Aunt May, and that goes for any version of her", I said glaring at Live. I just got a smirk in return.

"I guess I was followed", Miles said, who thankfully pulled his mask down. Peter was smart enough to stand in front of Miles.

"Don't worry Miles, it's not your fault. Get out of here!". He ran for the backdoor but one of Fisk's goons was waiting there walking into the room along with a man that resembled a scorpion. Great, we're surrounded.

"Let me guess, your scorpion? well we're the spider gang". I really wanted to punch Peter for that very poor joke.

"Would you mind taking this outside?", May asked nicely.

"We don't pick the ballroom, we just dance"

"You're all going to a hospital after this", I said while cracking my knuckles. I'm going to enjoy this after they almost hurt May.

Liv went straight for Peter seeing the flash drive hanging from his neck. Shoving him to the side I caught her arm before pulling her toward me but I had to lean back to dodge one of her arms. Jumping up I stuck to the ceiling dodging another before flying at her with a sidekick which she blocked with one of her arms, got those are annoying. Sticking to the ceiling again she sent two of her arms at me making me have to drop from the ceiling to dodge them. Touching the ground I grabbed a table throwing it at Live which she smashed to pieces by sending one of her arms straight through it and grabbed me by my chest slamming me into a wall. Taking a moment I realized the flash drive was coming right at me. Quickly grabbing it I saw miles was open so I threw it toward him just before I was slammed by an arm flying out the window.

"Aunt May is not going to be happy", I said while laying in the grass. Taking a breather Penny and her robot went out the same window making the hole bigger and flew right over me into a car. Really hope that wasn't May's.

Everyone else quickly took their own respective fights outside but I couldn't see miles. The others can handle themselves. I need to find miles. Inside I heard the sound of someone smashing parts of the house. Shit, running toward the house to help I stopped though seeing the prowler bust through the roof. Oh no, he'll kill him! Not wasting a moment I ran toward the house quickly climbing the front. Jumping onto the Roof I saw the Prowler have miles by the throat. Turning around he saw me, I took a step forward but I saw the grip on miles throat tighten making me stop.

"Let him go and I swear I won't break as many bones"

"Not smart to threaten the man holding a child hostage", he said. I gritted my teeth in response. As long as he has miles I can't do anything or he might break his neck.

"It's over", he said looking at miles. He looked like he was about to kill him but Miles took his mask off showing his uncle who he was. He took his mask looking at miles, surprised and frightened. I relaxed knowing by his reaction he wouldn't kill miles. Soon he let miles go after putting his mask back down and backing off. Thank god, I was worried there for a moment. Then suddenly I heard the woman speak in my head.

Choose Jack Parker

BANG!

Like that everything moved in slow motion. Mile's uncle tensed up with Miles having a surprised look on his face as his uncle slowly fell backwards. Miles ran to his Uncle as my eyes followed where the sound of the gun came from to see Kingpin with a smoking gun. Seeing Mile's uncle on the ground as he held his uncle made something snap inside me. Watching it made me think about what happened to my parents and how they were killed by a man with a gun. How helpless they must have felt with no one to come save them. All I felt in that single moment was anger, anger I've never felt before to a point I was enraged. My focus shifted to kingpin getting into a car leaving but all I really saw was one thing, RED!

Jack stood up straight as his body was tense but shaking full of not anger, but rage! Like a cheetah taking off he ran across the rooftops straight after Fisk's car. Every time he jumped from house to house roofing tiles were broken under his feet. If one was to see his face he would seem focused not even showing a smirk or a smile or any emotion but if one was to look into his eyes you would see the anger coursing through his body. Looking to his right he saw kingpin's car driving down the road. Without hesitation he jumped into the air landing on top causing the Car to swerve.

Inside Fisk looked up confused before a hand bust through grabbing him by his shirt. Before Jack could pull him out one of his bodyguards pulled out his sidearm and shot through the roof. Thanks to Jack's spider sense he was able to let go and move to the side to dodge the bullets. Shifting his focus he jumped to the back of the car leading to the guard to turn in his seat to fire shots at him. Jack jumped into the air dodging the bullets but now landing on the car hood. The guard in the passenger seat started firing once seeing him leading to jack roll to the side. Due to the sudden movement only one hand was keeping him on the side of the car.

Pushing off the ground a car nearly hit him as he now ended up sticking to the side of the car. Staying low he crawled to the back seat before busting his hand through the door grabbing the guard in the rear passenger seat then pulling back taking the door off and throwing the guard out with it. Looking in, Fisk had his gun raised firing a round but Jack swung his body to the side dodging the bullet. Above him the window was rolled down before an arm carrying a 1911 was poked out. Taking a moment Jack grabbed the arm yanking on it pulling him through the window smashing him into the road.

With both guards dealt with, Jack swung himself in with a drop kick hitting Fisk in the face. Fisk retaliated with a swing of his massive arm which Jack dodged with it barely hitting him. While bending low dodging another swing he kicked Fisk in the face making him slam into the back making the car swerve again. Taking the moment Jack got in front of Fisk throwing two quick hooks into Fisk's face before his spider sense went off. Moving quickly to the side he was wasn't quick enough to dodge the bullet coming at him grazing his arm giving Fisk enough time to grab Jack and throw him out the car.

Flying through the air Jack slammed into the front of a car. With the window cracked and part of the hood caved in he groaned in pain. Rolling to his side he watched Fisk's car drive away. Rolling off he struggled to his feet watching Fisk get away.

"fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCK!!!", I yelled before kicking the side of the car leaving a dent. The alarm started going off so I better get out of here.

Walking away the pain started kicking in, making me hold my back. I tried walking back to the house but the pain was too much. So I sat down against a wall trying to get used to the pain. While sitting here I looked where Fisk got away. In a moment of anger I slammed my fist onto the ground next to me. How could I let him get away? How could I let that killer get away with killing another? He's killed Peter and Miles's Uncle and most likely many more just to be able to travel between universes. Feeling something wet hit my head I looked up to see dark clouds and thunder before it started to pour, great.

Choose Jack parker

"What the hell are you on about? can't let a guy get a breather". I am not in the mood to deal with her bullshit right now. Not after that ordeal.

Choose Jack Parker, a choice must be made

"SHUT UP!!! ever since I got here you've mentioned me learning what I was destined for so tell me. No more riddles, no more hidden meanings, no...more...BULLSHIT! What am I supposed to do huh!? What is my supposed destiny!? ANSWER ME!!!". Sitting there all I got was silence. Why am I not surprised? Letting out a long sigh I rested my head against the wall feeling relief from the rain.

"That's what I thought", I said out loud before getting up, still in pain. Then I made my way back to Aunt May's.

It took me a while but I was able to get back without any more trouble. Standing in front of the house it was in shambles. It is surprising that it's still standing with the amount of damage it's taken. Walking up I walked into the house seeing it empty. I wonder where the other went? Walking over I flipped the couch up with my foot before taking a seat not caring if the rain was getting me wet still. Laying my head back I rested my eyes for a bit.

"Jack! are you ok? are you hurt?". Opening my eyes I saw it was Gwen. Sitting up I let out a groan of pain earning a worried look.

"I'm fine, just need to catch my breath after landing on a car"

"Need an aspirin?". I couldn't help but laugh. Going to need something more than that to help with this.

"I'll be fine, where's the others?"

"We tracked down Miles to talk to him and even after all of that he still wants to help, but he's not ready. They sent me back here to see if maybe you were here, guess they were right. We're going to head to Fisk tower to shut down the collider and get us home. Let's go", Gwen said, holding her hand out. Looking at it I pushed it to the side before standing up.

"What am I doing Gwen?"

"What do you mean?"

"I can't do this. Every time I've tried to do something right it's just blown up in my face. I'm not meant to be a hero Gwen. You should all just go without me. Apparently I don't have my cells deteriorating so I'll be fine. Get home, go back to your dad and keep your New York safe", I said walking away.

"What about your home? your aunt may? can you really leave her like that?"

"No one will miss me except her, it'll hurt hurting her like that but I can live with it. I'm use to disappointing people"

"So that's it? you're done!?!"

"Yep, this is where the life of Jack Parker ends. Stuck in another universe forever the misfit. Fitting for me", I said looking outside watching the rain fall.

"Jack, I can see the good in you, but why can't you! But it seems no matter how many times it's shown to you you won't acknowledge it! You can do good, you can be better, you just need to believe in yourself", Gwen said her anger dying down. I just stood there deciding to not say anything else. I've said my peace. Gwen tried to grab my arm but I moved away from her. Retracting her arm she held it close to her chest before turning away.

"your a good person Jack, even if you can't see it", she said before swinging away. Watching her swing away I turned around deciding to get out of the rain in the spider cave.

Taking the elevator down I sat at the chair in front of the computer. Leaning forward I held my head in my hands feeling lost. Leaning back I looked at the cave taking in what Peter made during his career. Even looking at his suits before my sights fell upon the case that was closed. Standing up I walked up to the case curious what the suit behind it looked like.

A choice must be made Jack parker. A choice of who you want to become, if you want to become him. Just close your eyes and reflect. reflect on your time here and what you have seen on the path Miles Morales took. Then you will find your answer.

Deciding not to fight it I closed my eyes thinking about what I've seen while here and my life. I thought about everything before I got here. My parents and their death, me spray painting across New York, my pranks angering everyone, Aunt May, and everything else with my time in my dimension. Then I started thinking about my time here. I met the Peter Parker of this universe remembering the kindness and help he gave me willing to put his life on the line to send me back, and his death. Me meeting Miles and watching his own path of becoming the new Spider-man of this universe. Meeting Gwen and how nice it's felt to open up to someone who seemed like they understood me and how at peace I felt with her. Then I remembered recent events, the death of Miles's uncle and my rampage.

Then I stopped there thinking of everything that miles had gone through and how he kept pushing forward. Even after his uncle was killed and learned he was an assassin he still wanted to help and do the right thing and how I encouraged him to believe in himself when others didn't. Maybe I did teach him something. Then suddenly a memory flashed through my head of something my mother used to say to me when I was a kid. Opening my eyes the memory flashed in front of me.

"Remember Jack, no matter what we face in our lives we can always do good. Even at our lowest point we still can when it seems the world is against us. You may not always do the right thing, so all you can do is do your very best at being and doing better when you do"

What do you choose Jack Parker?

"I'll never be a hero, but at the same time I won't know unless I try but I'll do it my way. I've seen what the world is like. It'll take and take unless you let it. I'm done letting it take whatever it wants. If the world wants to turn on me then fine, I'll turn on the world and defend the people under its cruel thumb. I'll make sure the world can't hurt any innocent people, even if that means I have to do things others will demonize me for", I said pressing the button opening the capsule. It hissed as it slowly opened.

"I'm not a Spider-man. I'm something different, something darker. So I won't take the name because I don't deserve it because I'll just drag it through the mud. So I'll take the title my world gave me. I'm the spook, a hero in the dark", I said as the capsule opened up showing a suit that represented a darker time for Peter. For me though, it's a baptism where I'll be reborn as something new.

You've chosen wisely Jack Parker, or I should I call you the spook? the rest from here is beyond my sight for the time being. Good luck Jack Parker, and give them hell.

"I was planning on it"

New York, Fisk Tower

https://youtu.be/T8BI2fKzdys

Rain continued to come down onto New York. On top of Fisk Tower two guards were stationed wearing rain jackets and fitted with Kevlar vests and fully automatic assault rifles guarding an elevator. One guard reaches into his jacket grabbing a cigarette lighting it but as he turned to his right his friend was gone. Before he could raise his gun he was lifted into the air with a yell following it before it suddely stopped. A dark figure dropped down pressing a button making the elevator open. On another part of the roof a breaker box was seen demolished with small sparks coming off it.

On another floor a hallway of guards all armed are wondering what happened to the power. Their confusion was stopped hearing a ding from an elevator. All of them were quick to raise their weapons aimed at the elevator. It slowly opened and as it did a dark figure ran out grabbing one of the guards by his face smashing it into the ground. Then all hell broke loose.

The figure moved through the dark hallway after dodging a hail of bullets. Sliding to the ground he tripped the man but kicked him in the chest before he hit the ground launching him into another guard taking them out. Jumping into the air he stuck to the ceiling dodging another hail of bullets before jumping into the air slamming two guards heads into the ground as he came down. Dodging another gun shot he rolled across the ground before performing a double hand spring into a kick landing on a guards chin launching him into the air. Not wasting a moment the figure dodged to the side before grabbing a barrel of a gun wiping it up into the guards nose before throwing it to the side. With the guard unarmed he grabbed him by his vest punching him maliciously while pushing him back before finishing with an uppercut launching him onto his back.

The dark figure stood up straight catching his breath. Look around he saw all the guards were dealt with. Hearing a grunt he kicked up one of the guns before throwing it at the guards head knocking him out. Seeing now they were all dealt with he walked down the hall toward Fisk's office. His most noticeable features being his glowing white eyes and white spider symbol.
