First, Speed Demon has a ball. In a flash, he runs up behind the imam, and runs his arm through his chest, impaling him.

All around, the Muslims gasp. The imam doesn't resist, has he breathes his last breath, and the light leaves his eyes.

Inside Rhino, his pilot chuckles. His voice is a Turkic/Slavic bastard...as is his being.

Shocker sneaks up behind Kamala's mother, and sticks her in the ass with his electrified prosthetic. She screams in shock. He laughs, and spontaneously strikes another Kurdish woman in the ass. Like a gnat gliding through the air, Peter can't tell if they're enjoying this...

Boomerang throws one of his boomerangs. A man ducks to avoid it. It comes back around, and impales him in the chest. He gasps, and coughs blood, before falling over.

"Please don't hurt us," a man shouts. "What do you want?!"

"We want a Turkish planet," Hydro-Man says, erecting many tentacles made of water. "And you're not Turkish."

He sticks his tentacles down several peoples' throats, and drowns them. Some of them cough up parts of him as they die.

At the size of a gnat, Spider-Man I imagines a solution, with KAREN's help. He glides around, improvising it.

Rhino raises his mecha's foot, and uses it to squash a Kurdish boy like a bug. The crowd gasps as he does.

"Kurds," Rhino grumbles. "Their men grow too slow."

Speed Demon chuckles. "Our empire is rising. You stand in our way. So," he accelerates his body, "you will all forgive us when we slaughter you all in the name of Turkey, the Sultan, and Turkish patriotism!"

Speed Demon accelerates himself; this is a mistake. Spider-Man I has foreseen this.

Shocker involuntarily hits Hydro-Man with his prosthetic. Hydro-Man becomes electrified, and sends tentacles of power all over the room. One of them hits Rhino in the head. Rhino moans, and stomps about the place.

As Rhino stomps, he inadvertently builds many holes in the walls. Through these, the Kurds flee and escape.

Boomerang prepares to throw a boomerang. Rhino runs into him, and he throws it too early. Speed Demon runs, and tries to seal off the Kurds' escape. The boomerang lands right where Spider-Man I means for it to; it impales Speed Demon through the chest.

Speed Demon groans, and pulls the boomerang out. It won't take him long to heal.

Spider-Man II broadsides him, and wraps him in a net of webs. He hits him in the nose with some gas-webbing, which turns into a gas near his airway, and causes him to pass out.

All around, the Sultan Syndicate flees. Neither Spider-Man can tell if they plan to return for their captured teammate.

"Wow," Spider-Man II muses, looking around. "What happened here?"

New York's finest arrive, and take Speed Demon away. They don't realize how much danger they're putting themselves in by taking him.

Thankfully, they may not have to find out. There might be a certain someone in Symkaria, or worse yet, OsCorp, who'd LOVE to have Speed Demon extradited into their care...
