Chapter 130

"Are you really Peter Parker? I mean that you look so different from our Peter. Are you an albino? But even an albino doesn't have such features. By the way, are you sorcerer or do you know them since you found the New York Sanctum." The boy of Asian descent asked me while rambling. He seemed to be a bit of a geek.

Because of the web research, I recognised who he has. Ned Leeds, this world's Peter Parker's best friend.

When I had first seen his picture, I couldn't believe that he was actually Ned Leeds of this world. After all, they couldn't be any more different. The Ned Leeds of my world was a bully and a complete American while this Ned was a geek as well as an Asian-American.

"Calm down, Ned. Don't pester him too much. After all, they have arrived from another world. It must be quite difficult for them to adjust." The girl said to Ned. I recognised her as this world's Peter's girlfriend, Michelle Jones.

"May I ask who you are, Miss?" Dr. Strange asked Emma politely.

"I am Emma Frost, Peter's girlfriend." Emma said, calling herself my girlfriend which was a little far-fetched considering that we had not actually confirmed our relationship yet. However, I was not going to call her out for such a small matter.

As Emma revealed her identity, see also deactivated the illusion spell, revealing her true appearance. I could see that everyone's eyes had widened because of her beauty.

"What's up with this couple, MJ? Each one of them can topple the entire filming industry if they ever try to be an actor." Ned whispered to Michelle, surprisingly calling her MJ.

"You are called MJ too?" I couldn't help but ask since she didn't look the slightest bit like my MJ.

"Yes, I am MJ, Michelle Jones. May I ask why?" MJ asked.

"Actually, there is also a MJ I know who is completely different from you. She is Mary Jane, a beautiful redhead who leads a band." I explained.

"We would have time for small talk later. I need to ask both of you a few things first. Peter, I believe that you are also Spider-Man." Dr. Strange asked.

"Actually, I am not." I said, generating a few red sparks between my fingers to show that I had different powers.

"Then, how did you arrive in this dimension? Dr. Strange, weren't the requirements that one needed to know that Peter Parker was Spider-Man to arrive in this world?" This world's Peter asked Dr. Strange with a puzzled look.

"Requirements? Does our arrival in this world have anything to do with you?" Emma asked in a sharp tone since she was still pretty irritated that our date had been ruined.

"Actually, Peter here had asked me to perform a ritual which would remove the fact that Peter Parker is Spider-Man from everyone's memory. The ritual would have succeeded if it was not for the fact that Peter continuously interferred in the ritual, causing it to go haywire.

Now, the result is that instead of making people forget that Peter Parker is Spider-Man, people who know this fact are arriving from all over the multiverse."

Dr. Strange explained the whole matter while looking at this world's Peter with a reproaching look since it was because of him that this whole matter had occurred.

"I am really sorry for what happened." Peter apologized with a sheepish look.

"Now, would you please tell me why you know that Peter Parker is Spider-Man when you are actually not a Spider-Man?" Dr. Strange asked.

"Actually, this is not our first contact with the multiverse. A few weeks ago, the Spider-Man or should I say the Spider-Woman of our world had been sent to another world where she met many other Spider-Men. Among them were many Peter Parkers. That is why we know the fact that there is a Peter Parker in the multiverse who is Spider-Man."

I explained while withholding the information about spider Supreme for now since it didn't seem necessary. Not to mention that it was very likely that Dr. Strange would start hounding me for information regarding Spider Supreme like Ancient One did.

"Can you please tell us how will you send us back and when?" Emma demanded.

"Actually, Peter…. Uh! What shall I call you since there are two Peters?" Dr. Strange asked me politely.

"Just call me Albion. That is the codename I use in my world." I replied.

"Well, Albion. The fact is that the ritual can be reversed any moment we want, allowing you return to your dimension." Dr. Strange said something we had never expected.

"Then, why are you not doing it already?" Emma asked.

"I think that it would be better to show it to you than to explain it." Dr. Strange said as he gestured for us to follow him.

He took us to the basement of the Sanctum where several people were caged in enchanted prisons.

"Mr. Osborn!" I said as I realised that one of the caged people was surprisingly Norman Osborn.

"You know me?" Mr. Osborn said to me with a puzzled look. It was very likely that he was not the Mr. Osborn I knew since he looked quite nervous and frightened.

"It seems that you already know one of them. As you can see, you are not the only ones to arrive in this world." Dr. Strange explained.

Aside from Mr. Osborn, there was a man with several mechanical arms on his back, a black man who had electric sparks emitting from him and the last man seemed to be made entirely of sand.

"They are Otto Octavious aka Dr. Octopus, Max Dillon aka Electro and Flint Marko aka Sandman. You already know Norman Osborn." Dr. Strange introduced all of them.

"What's the problem with them? If you can send all of us back, you should just do it." Emma said, eager to return to our home dimension.

"The problem is that Dr. Octopus, Electro and Norman Osborn are going to die in a fight with their world's Spider-Man the moment they return to the own worlds. I want to save them." Peter said, revealing why they had not reversed the ritual till now.

"I don't know about the rest of them but how did you end up like this, Mr. Osborn?" I asked, worried about the fate of Mr. Osborn of my own world.

"I… I don't want to talk about it." Mr. Osborn said in a frightened tone, clearly not wanting to say anything.

"According to Flint Marko who is from the same world but several years in the future, Norman Osborn took an untested serum which gave birth to a split personality. He became the monster called Green Goblin who wore a green suit and flew on an armed glider full of bombs. He died in a battle against Spider-Man, impailed on his own glider." Dr. Strange revealed what he had learnt about this Norman Osborn's fate.

"Are all of them criminals?" Emma suddenly asked.

"Umm… Yes!" Peter answered hesitantly.

"Then, I believe that you should let all have them die. They clearly deserve it. Perhaps maybe Mr. Osborn. There is no need to care for the criminals." Emma said, revealing her stance on the matter.

"I believe that we should give them a chance, Emma." I said to Emma.

"Is it because of Mr. Osborn?" She asked.

"No, it's not." I replied.

"Then why?" Emma asked, not able to understand why I wanted to save these criminals.

"Because I too would have died if I had not been saved by Spider Supreme."
