:Marvel Universe:

-Several Minutes Earlier-

"Motherfucker! What the hell is that?!" Inside a hidden base, a tall African American man couldn't help but shout as he witnessed a giant ship appear above the desert outside Puente Antiguo.

His name was Nick Fury, informally known as the "Angry One-eyed Pirate." When he's not busy scheming behind people's backs, he is diligently working as the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The man doesn't exactly enjoy his job, but he knows of its importance and is duty-bound to protect the United States of America from any and all threats. So when he was busy overlooking another mission in NYC, he was contacted by Phil, one of his most trusted agents.

He was informed that they had hit a snag while investigating the strange hammer. Of course, he was not deterred by this news as it came with the territory.

However, it is what happened next that left him stunned.

Moments after a man tried to retrieve the hammer, a black Volkswagen Jetta appeared seemingly out of thin air.

This, unfortunately, wasn't the end of it, as before they knew it, the Jetta quickly made a break for it.

Fortunately, the chase was relatively short-lived, but during the said chase, a massive golden starship materialized in the sky. It hovered over them like a majestic celestial guardian, casting a radiant glow that illuminated the surrounding desert landscape.

His first thought was the Kree, but the ship shown on screen looked like nothing they had ever used in the past.

Despite his extensive knowledge, Nick had no clue where the ship came from, leaving him quite perplexed as he pondered the reason for its appearance.

However, he wasn't able to ponder for long.

Shortly after its emergence, an onslaught of calls and messages from his superiors began, and almost immediately, he started to have a migraine.

"Ah, shit...here we go again." Nick sighed before handing out orders. He needed to get a handle on this situation and fast before it blew up anymore.

•^•°^°•^•°^°•^°

:Marvel Universe:

After blocking the Jetta, Clint requested for the driver and whoever else was inside to step out of the vehicle. Things were looking well for them until it wasn't.

*Thud Thud..Ting!*

Abruptly, without warning, objects resembling grenades descended from the sky, landing with precision on the damp sand surrounding the vehicle.

"Shit—"

*BOOM*

With little time to spare, Clint and his fellow agents swiftly sought refuge just moments before the grenade erupted.

Thankfully, they were not ordinary grenades but rather smoke grenades. Regrettably, the vehicle became obscured from their view as the smoke enveloped everything around them.

But that wasn't the end of it.

"Ahh!" Suddenly, one of their comrades let out a blood-curdling scream before falling into an eerie silence.

There was a hidden assailant!

And based on the sounds Clint heard, it seemed they had no trouble navigating through the dense smoke.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!*

What was once deemed a routine operation had swiftly transformed into a chaotic warzone.

With only a few agents on the scene, Clint gave only the most sensible order.

"Everyone, retreat!" Clint bellowed, gripping his bow tightly. The rapid decisions made in the heat of the moment left them without a plan, and without the proper gear, it was suicide to stay in the smoke.

Upon hearing Clint's command, the remaining agents swiftly began to retreat, maintaining a vigilant stance as they moved backward.

While some were lucky on their escape, others were not.

*Bam*

Out of the blue, Clint was attacked!

With his heightened senses, he barely managed to block the attack with his bow, nearly dropping it.

"Damn..." He muttered. The force behind the attack made him assume his assailant was a man.

"Looks like this isn't going to be easy with you."

However, that idea was shattered as he heard a woman's voice.

"Who are you?!" He shouted, vaguely catching a glimpse of a green-haired woman.

"Wouldn't you like to know?~" The woman cheekily answered before continuing her assault.

°^°•^•°^°•^°

:Marvel Universe:

Inside the Jetta, a different kind of attack was happening.

'What the hell is going on?!' Emil thought. One moment he was ready to step out of the car, but then next, he was ready to lock the door.

It was a miracle they hadn't been hit by stray gunfire.

*Click*

"Did you just lock the door?" Gwen looked at him oddly.

"I did." He nodded with a wry smile. "It sounds dumb now that you said it. I'm hopeless."

"Bark..." Lambert nudged his shoulder.

Emil frowned, "Don't try to console me, Lambert."

"Bark!" Lambert, however, wouldn't budge. He wasn't going to let his master berate himself in his presence.

He was a gentleman, after all.

"Ok, fine, I forgive myself. I'm not hopeless, happy?" Emil sighed, eventually yielding to his dog's wishes.

Lambert nodded with satisfaction, pleased that he had successfully done his job.

Gwen rolled her eyes at the scene but eventually couldn't help but smile seeing the exchange between the two.

Although she hadn't known him for that long, she was actually sort of relaxed in his presence. He somehow reminded her of a dorky friend.

'...Strange how I can't remember his name...weren't we really clo—'

"Ah!" Suddenly an intense headache struck her, causing her to groan in agony.

Fortunately, it only lasted a moment.

"Are you okay?" Emil asked, his voice filled with concern.

"Mm..." She nodded as she rubbed her head in an attempt to alleviate the pain. "It's nothing. But besides that, what are we going to do? Are we still surrendering?"

"I..."

Logically speaking, it was best that they stayed put as there is no telling what could happen next. Whatever is out there is taking down their attackers, and there's no way to tell if they are friendly or not.

If push came to shove, Emil knew he could defend them, but he wasn't entirely certain if he was bulletproof, nor did he have any desire to find out.

However, it is also logical to escape.

And then he realized something.

'Wait...could we just go back the way we came?' He wondered.

It was just a passing thought, but as soon as it entered his mind, he couldn't help but wonder if it was actually possible to achieve.

If, by some chance, it turned out to be true, he knew he would never forgive himself for not testing it earlier.

"Hey, Gwen..." Emil turned to her. "Could you pet Lambert again?"

Gwen's brow furrowed in confusion as she looked at him, "Pet him, why would I...Oh, You think that would work?"

He shrugged, "Can't hurt to try, right?"

Recognizing the sound logic behind the situation, Gwen turned to Lambert without uttering a word before politely saying, "Excuse me."

The furry gentleman blinked his eyes in response, eventually nodding his head to indicate his understanding.

There was a slight hesitation, but eventually, Gwen reached out to touch Lambert.

However, just moments before she could touch him, Lambert suddenly flinched and stepped back, his ears perking up as if he sensed something.

*Bam!*

Seconds later, something slammed against Emil's window with a loud thud, causing both Gwen and Lambert to jump in surprise.

"What was that-Oh, my god..." Suddenly, Emil's eyes grew wide with shock, rendering him unable to utter another word.

It was a moon, a full one, to be exact.

:Main Universe:

Something strange was going on, as in with a specific Liberate account named Arg0.

Nearly half an hour ago, their first-ever stream went live, showing off incredible video quality.

The first several viewers assumed it to be a movie trailer of some sort. What started as a regular drive with an incredibly hot woman became a high-speed chase.

It was incredible.

So much so that people started an investigation, hoping to learn more about it.

And what did they learn?

Absolutely nothing.

No matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find anything about a movie, and if they did find something similar, it was just that, similar.

With their curiosity peaked, they continued to watch the stream hoping for a name or a title screen.

Unfortunately, no such thing happened.

And even worse, the stream was reported!

Who would do such a thing?!

Almost immediately, they complained to the Librate support staff, hoping for the block to be removed.

They wanted to know what would happen next!

Hundreds of comments poured into the Liberate help bot, and after a grueling 30 minutes, the stream was unblocked.

They expected to continue where they left off, but their eyes were graced with something entirely different.

∆Hellfair2 - Omagawd

∆IMHORNE2 - My god...is that real?!

∆Sauceman1 - For once, I'm asking for the SAUCE. There is no way someone like that isn't known!

∆HolyMan32 - I have seen the light, and it is beautiful... (҂ ꒦ິヮ꒦ິ)

Asloja has donated $1000

∆Can we please have her details?! PLEASE, IT'S FOR A FRIEND!!

∆1y_the_first - Good gracious ass is bodacious...

∆1y_the_first - I'll show myself out.

While the stream chat was going wild, the Star Raider server chat was having its own conversation.

∆HaruHaru - Any update on the boss?

∆LunaSea - So far, no. The last time I spoke to him, he said he was on the road. So, he's probably still driving.

∆CrazyZeus - I'm sure he's fine. He's a grown-ass man.

∆HaruHaru - There's nothing wrong with being worried!

∆EzoBladeK - Not initially, but you've been asking since he left. What are you, his mom?

∆GuardianDog - Ohh! Got em!

∆HarHaru - One of these days, I'm going find you and kick your ass. [Angry.Gif]

∆GuardianDog - Me? But I didn't do anything!

∆CrazyZeus - Damn, not even the elderly are safe from her wrath. [Shame.gif]

∆GuardianDog - Hey! I'm not old! I'm still in my early 40's!

∆EzobladeK - Just accept the facts. [Pathetic.jpg]

∆LunaSea - Alright, that's enough.

∆GuardianDog - Thank you, Luna. [Cry.gif]

∆CrazyZeus: Yeah, I'm sorry you're not old. Just youth challenged.

∆EzoBladeK- Hahaha!

∆CrazyZeus has been muted for 1hr

∆EzoBladeK has been muted for 1hr

∆HarHaru - Hah! Serves them right!

∆HarHaru has been muted for 1hr

∆Loveless - Why did you mute Haru too?

∆LunaSea - ...My hand slipped.

°^°•^•°^°•^°

:Marvel Universe:

How would one react if they suddenly got mooned by a woman, but in a good way?

No idea?

Emil felt the same way as he witnessed their ass slam against his window.

And it even cracked it!

'Jesus...I really am screwed if I somehow get this car back...'

Upon further inspection, he noticed that the owner of the ass was currently fighting someone, or at least that's what he assumed from where he was sitting.

'Perhaps she was the attacker, as that is definitely not military approved...' Emil wasn't intentionally disrespectful. Still, he found it difficult to divert his gaze from the woman's curvy rear end.

Unfortunately, someone took offense to this.

*Smack*

He was slapped.

"Ouch! What did you do that for?!" Emil exclaimed, cradling his cheek in pain as he glanced at the perpetrator.

"You seemed quite captivated by her," Gwen remarked, her expression turning into a frown.

"Uh..." He was speechless. For a moment, he thought he was dealing with a jealous girlfriend, but that was impossible....

They've only met less than an hour ago!

Emil's eyes briefly shifted towards Lambert, who quickly averted his gaze, pretending to be engrossed in something else, clearly attempting to avoid getting involved.

'Betrayer! You're supposed to defend your master!' Though he couldn't help but feel a sense of disbelief, deep down, he silently acknowledged Lambert's actions.

He wouldn't want to get involved, either.

In the midst of this seemingly comical situation, unbeknownst to them, a peculiar little spider materialized out of thin air and hopped into the car's exhaust pipe.

It was as if it was waiting just for this moment to hitch a ride.

If one were observant enough, one would notice that the spider's appearance was distorting, similar to how Gwen did only moments ago.

°^°•^•°^°•^°

:Main Universe:

In the depths of the cosmic abyss, a woman with striking black and platinum blonde hair was engrossed in her work, typing away on a sophisticated computer system.

"Damn, it...why did they have to involve him. He's supposed to have a happy life, not one with more problems." The woman scowled.

"I should have known...but I already used so much of the leyline to give him this chance."

*Beep Beep*

Suddenly, the woman's focus shifted as her attention was captured by the holographic screen in front of her, causing a smile to illuminate her face.

"Well, look who is back. You should have taken longer."

Shortly after, the irritated voice of a man resonated through the air.

"Shut up, Mona. I really don't need your sass at the moment. I just need answers. What the hell happened?! Why couldn't I contact you?"

"I'll explain it to you...what do you think about the multiverse theory?"

"Please don't tell me what I think you're telling me." The man groaned.

"Yeah...also, I tried to stop your stream b—"

"I'VE BEEN STREAMING THIS WHOLE TIME?!"

(A/N: This is the end of the prologue. Things will focus back on streaming now. I wanted to do this sort of thing earlier so MC isn't precisely blindsided in the future. I'm pretty sure some people will have some questions. However, most I can't give out without ruining the mystery. BUT I will say if you want to know what's going on with Gwen, then you'll have to dive deep into Spiderman lore. Anyways I'm out! Love you guys.)
