"Oh my God, don't let him hit that pole, British Spiderman, what are you doing? Why did you kick me?!"
"I didn't! Spiderwoman did it!"
"Oh, really? Who was that? Stop pulling my cape, Spiderman! You're settling a personal score!"
"It was you who kicked me first, you're just getting back at me for eating your cake. Don't think I don't know! Gwen also took a bite, but you don't seem upset with her. You're the most biased Spiderman here!"
"What do you mean your cake? Aunt May made the cake and it should be mine. I am Spiderman too! Besides, I only had a small bite, Spider-Man 2099 ate the entire piece!"
"You guys are framing me! I'm on a diet, why would I steal the cake? To be honest, you just want revenge because she broke your remote. She very well knew you were there, but she kicked it anyway. I saw it all!"
"You're the one framing me..."
"I didn't break your remote!"
"The cake should have been mine anyway..."
"Whose Spider Silk! It's tangled with mine! It's in a deadlock..."
"Quick! Get out of the way!!!"
"Oh… bam!"
It turns out that a chatterbox plus a chatterbox is much more than simply one plus one. One Spiderman is a chatterbox, but in this room, there are a whole nine Spidermans.
Ten minutes later, Shiller couldn't hear anything at all. All he heard was cake, remote, cape, who kicked whom, who punched whom, whose Spider Silk got tangled with whom's, who broke whose Spider Silk and who tripped over whom…
Shiller, holding the Umbrella Knife, suddenly stopped. He stood in his spot and yelled, "STOP!!!!!!!"
Instantly, all the Spidermans stopped, then all stared at him.
"You, yeah you, you ate his cake, apologize to him now. And you, you also took a bite when he was stealing the cake, apologize as well!"
"You took her remote, apologize to her. You took the remote he stole and broke it, apologize to her too!"
"And you, to get back at him for stealing the cake, you kicked him, apologize to him. As for you, when you flew by, you punched him out of revenge for breaking your remote, apologize to him!"
"You shot the Spider Silk first, he shot it after… Don't shake your head, I saw it all! Your Spider Silk was stuck to the pole on the right, his to the one on the left. If you hadn't swung left, your Spider Silks wouldn't have gotten tangled. You apologize first!"
"You broke her Spider Silk which caused her to fall and hit him, apologize to him now! And you, don't laugh! After being knocked over, you tripped her, apologize to her!"
"And you, what are you laughing at? Feeling smug? Thinking you're the only one who didn't make a mistake? When you swung by, why did you have to gesture at his head? And you, you were just making a face, I saw it!"
Five minutes later, the nine Spidermans were all standing in a line in a defeated manner. Amazing Spiderman nudged Spiderwoman next to him and said, "I have a feeling, without asking, that this guy must be Peter's teacher, just like the one we had in high school..."
"Snap!", Shiller tapped the ground with his umbrella and Amazing Spiderman immediately stood upright. Shiller turned to Spider Silk and asked, "Do you know what time it was when you called me?"
"I..." Spider Silk stuttered, looking up at the hall lights she said, "I...I am not quite familiar with the time rules of Parallel Universes, so... it was completely random..."
Shiller glanced at his watch and said, "At the time you called me, it was 9:20 at night where I was. That's my rest time. You not only made one call but two."
Spider Silk's eyes widened, "Oh, no…the thing is…I really didn't know, I truly apologize, we have a time difference!"
The sincere attitude momentarily stumped Shiller, however, he quickly pulled himself together. No matter which world's Spiderman they are, they are typically law-abiding and kind. Even if they might have a dark past, once they have joined the Spiderman team, they are usually reformed.
At this point, Ultimate Spider-Man Miles came forward, "Seriously, man? Just because Spider Silk called you a little late, you decided to take action? Moreover, that time doesn't count as late, does it?"
"Is that so? So, what time do you consider to be late?" Shiller asked.
"At least around three or four in the morning, right? I usually go to bed after midnight...wait! Your knife!…Alright, alright, I'll sleep early from now on..."
Miles backed off, and Shiller looked at the line of Spidermans: Amazing Spiderman, Ultimate Spider-Man, Kaine Spiderman, Spider-Man 2099, British Spiderman, Spider-Girl, Spiderwoman, Gwen Spider, and Spider Silk.
When the nine Spidermans stand together, they were not completely different but rather similar. As their spider-like eyes all focused on Shiller, he felt a headache coming on.
"Alright then, who's the next Spiderman to introduce themselves?" Shiller asked.
"Hey, wait, are you trying to be our leader? But…" Amazing Spiderman started to say.
Suddenly, he saw that Shiller had produced a skull. Amazing Spiderman took a step back, "Oh my God, is that a skull? Whose skull is that?"
"I'm not trying to be your leader..." Shiller said with a smirk, "This is a member of the Morlun Family."
It was the skull of a Morlun family member that Helen had intentionally not digested as a memento after consuming the corpse. All nine Spidermans swallowed hard. Amazing Spiderman made an 'OK' gesture and said, "Alright, boss."
"You, yes you, introduce yourself," Shiller pointed his umbrella at Amazing Spiderman, whose eyes immediately drooped. He walked somberly over to Shiller, saying,
"Alright, my name is Peter Parker, code name Spiderman. I'm working as a researcher in a New York institute at the moment. Just to clarify, Mary Jane and I are just good friends. We are not a couple..."
As he spoke, he looked at the line of Spidermans, Spider-Girl crossed her arms, snorted, and said,
"Well, my dad's name is Peter Parker and my mom's name is Mary Jane."
Amazing Spiderman shivered, he had a bad feeling about this. He turned his head and saw Gwen Spider squinting her eyes, her death stare directed at him.
