4 The Team Assembling

Very few people can get to claim that they can spam the wisdom of Solomon without been struck by lightning for lying so blatantly. But Peter was one if not the only one who can get to do that. Using that wisdom and his knowledge as a total weeb, finding the most overpowered way to use his power of Zeus was easy!

People like Killua gave him the idea to make a spell that made his living lightning cover him and make him go to half the speed of light with just one step! That's now even overpowered. Enel gave him the idea to produce lightning in such a way one may confuse it to be raining nothing but lightning and producing a kamahameha beam of nothing but pure lightning thanks to Goku. Watching a cartoon of Superman and Shazam vs Black Adam made him learn about just straight out disassembling atoms using the electricity in the molecules. That's not even all of it.

He then went ahead and started using the power to create weapons and learn how to use them. The best he could use surprisingly was a Warhammer. The giant weapon fit very well with his inner self and the second weapon he could use quite well was a spear which he attributed to Achilles. One his hours that he wasn't training, he was out there chasing criminals and bringing them to the police with either a broken hand or leg. The most violent ones usually arrive with a broken spine which he would never admit was caused by him.

It was such a night that Tony approached him. Some bank robbers were getting away in their car while shooting at the cops so he decided to help. Taking to the sky using from the rooftop he was seated on, he followed them, taking his time because the cops were becoming jerks towards him lately, especially a blonde Sergeant who shall not be named.

When he saw one of them take out an RPG, he flew in to help, floating in front of the targeted car, letting RPG hit his chest, the blinding explosion hid his smirk. He was sure the cops inside the car he just saved were having mixed reactions due to this so he flew after the robbers. He ripped the roof off of the car and floated in, sitting on the rear passenger seat between two robbers.

"I need to see your bank receipt, gentlemen," he said calmly while the robbers were having a nervous breakdown.

"We ain't giving you shit! Pop him!" the driver yelled and the other three complied by aiming their guns at him and opening fire. What happened next was beyond any of the five's expectations. The bullets bounced off his skin and suit and lodged themselves back to their respective shooters, killing them instantaneously!

"I did not expect that," Shazam said in surprise while the driver was about to shit himself. He quickly stepped on the brakes before he ran out of the car...towards the police cars.

"Take me in! Please, take me in. I will cooperate, I will even give you any name you want just get me away from that monster!" the driver wailed as he went on his knees and put his hands behind his head. Shazam was too taken in by the fact that three guys just died in front of him to comment in this ridiculous scene. The courage of Achilles played its role here by helping him keep his lunch. He rose to the sky and left with a Sonic boom, trying to put the picture of the three bodies behind him but his photographic memory let him down for once. He stopped when he was on top of a sky scrapper, the air up there slightly disgusting than the one down on the street level so he could clear up his mind.

"What got you down?" he heard a familiar voice say from behind. He did not need to turn around to know it was Tony.

"Are you following me?" he asked.

"Dude, you are literary sitting on my roof!" Tony said, making Shazam do a double check.

"So I am, sorry," Shazam said, awkwardly.

"No need, I was actually going to find you. But you seem to be in some sort of debate with yourself," Tony said, making Shazam nod in affirmation.

"I just indirectly took three lives today. They shot at me at close blank and the bullets ricochetted back to them. I wish I would say it was karma but I feel terrible about it," Shazam answered.

"I indirectly took the lives of thousands and I am peachy. The secret is, do not make the same mistake as the one you just did. Otherwise it would seem that you like taking lives," Tony advised him.

"Thanks for pep talk, but it will take more than that to make me not think about the three lives," Shazam scoffed.

"How about I give you something else to think about. Remember the team I was gathering?" Shazam was taken back, making him think to the date he was currently in.

"Super secret team you were going to draft me in?" Shazam asked, hoping it was Loki and not some AU bullshit.

"That's right. We have officially been called to duty," Tony beamed proudly.

"Are there more to the team?"

"I don't know the specifics but I know our first target. He is currently in Germany, Berlin," Tony said, making Shazam even more excited.

"Who is he?"

"He calls himself a god or something. He stole something from one of our allies, we are going to fight back and hopefully recover it before he does something with it,"

"What is it he stole? Some nuke?"

"Worse, something that can make a bomb more powerful than a nuke if I am correct,"

"That's powerful! How comes the government hasn't made a weapon then?"

"From their secret files, they were about to do so when the object reacted. The man we are after just appeared in the facility and took it, leaving behind rubble," Shazam nodded, secretly glad it was some sort of AU from the information Tony gave him.

"When do we go?"

"Was about to just tell you of the whole deal before heading it. If you feel ready to beat some wannabe god's ass then you can tag along,"

"I wouldn't miss it for the world," Shazam said and took off befor Tony, making sure to go super sonic when he was few hundred feet away from Tony just to antagonize him.
