1st P.O.V Beth
I may or may have not edited Tom's conversation with the others, and had Tom and Robert forget about the Arc Reactor. They don't need to know this yet, soon, but not now.
"Fury, why can't we get them out now?!! They are in danger of remembering everything all at once! Just the other day, Loki was sitting with me in the cafe, and he started to hum the lullaby and his eyes flashed green! We need to pull them out!". Pacing my living room as I yell at Fury, what a great start to my day.
"We can't Osipherus, it's too risky, they need to be in there as long as they can, so they can recover everything....plus..", he says hesitantly, like he's not sure about what he's about to say. "We have good reason to believe that he's come back....",
My reaction is immediate, "MOTHER FUCKER!", I scream as I feel my blood chill.
"My thoughts exactly, it is only a rumor at the moment, but I would prefer for him to stay that way. So they need to stay as long as possible-''.
"No, they have to get out, I need to pull them out now before Infinity War, or else they'll get trapped, we KNOW this Fury!. If anything I should get them out now to protect everyone!". "Osipherus, I need you to calm down, he's not looking for them, he doesn't know....". "What? How do you know that?". "Because he's not on Earth, which is where they were all last seen. Rumor is that he's searching for an Arc Angel..".
"Okay...okay", I say calming my breathing. "He's not looking for any of them, so we're okay, please keep it that way Fury...I don't need another heart attack".
"I'll try, Good Luck Osipherus, I'll keep in touch".
The line went dead and I collapsed on my couch, Well, that went well, good to know that the world's largest killer doesn't know about this....
My phone started to vibrate, and the caller I.D showed Itsy Bitsy, Tom never calls, he only texts.
"Hey bud, what's up?", I ask softly, and I hear crying on the other end of the line. "Tom? Would you like for me to come over so we can talk?", I sat up ready to go in case. It's always better to be able to actually comfort someone instead of talking over the phone.
I hear a slight murmur of a yes please, and I'm already out the door. "It's okay Tom, I'm right here, and I'm coming as fast as I can, so just hang tight". His breathing had gotten to a more stable point by the time I pulled up to his house. I speed walk through the door, and try to find him. It's a huge house, but I can hear him in a bedroom off to the left. I hang up as I enter the room, and he jumps from the bed and runs to me. He crashes into me with a hug, causing me to only take a small step back. "My-My Dad died today....he's gone..", he sinks to his knees and I drop with him. "It's okay, just let it out, i'm right here", I say, trying my best to soothe and calm him down. It's all okay little spider, I promise it'll all be okay. "Do you want me to call your Mom? I'm sure she would come?".
He shakes his head slightly, more tears cascading down his face. He sobbed into my shoulder and held my neck and I rocked him slowly. My mind drifted, and soon I was singing softly what usually calmed him
These fancy things will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Dread filled my stomach as I felt his tears turn to gold...Shit, what have I done........that was the first song I could think of? Fuck this is bad.
My heart stopped when Tom continued to sing the chorus.....
Because
When the sun shines, we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella,
He started to drift off to sleep with a small smile on his face...If i erase this, i'll be stripping away the sense of comfort and security he's used to having.......I decided to let him keep the feeling, but the lullaby needed to leave...
My gold wave tendrils wrapped around his mind, but there was still a smile on his face when it disappeared. I picked him up bridal style and laid him on his bed. He curled up into himself and asked for MJ.
I froze in place, contemplating what to do... I sat down next to him and ran my hand through his curls. My other hand was dialing Fury.
"Nick, can you send MJ driving the Zendaya illusion? Tell her it's for Tom Holland, not Peter. He thinks he lost both parents...and his emotions are bleeding...bad....he started crying normally". "Say no more, I'll send her over right now".
I hang up and continue to run my hands through Pe-Tom's hair. I hear the door open and close softly, and slow footsteps. My hand glows purple as a long, ornate dagger appears in my hand. I raise it as the door opens, and I almost let it fly. "MJ!! I thought we talked about this! The signal so I don't kill you for getting too close to Peter?!".
"Well, I'm sorry scary Angel, but you had asked for me here, so I don't know what you expect of me..". I sigh, disappearing the dagger, "You know what, it's fine, just keep him safe and if he starts acting weird, call me, okay?". "Like Tom weird or Peter weird?". "Peter weird, I'm worried that he's breaking the barriers to fast..".
"When's the premiere?", "Nine months away, they're working on CGI right now, so I don't have to worry about the acting. I'll just have to keep on my toes as we get closer", I say with a tinge of sadness. She looks at me with knowing eyes, holding my hand tenderly.
"It'll work, you've already gotten almost everyone, you just need to wait a little longer". I smile softly, "Well, I'll just be going, let me know if anything happens''.
"Don't worry, i'll keep an eye on the loser". I chuckle slightly, "you mean your loser, MJ''. She shrugs, but she sits on the bed and holds Tom's hand as he sleeps.
I walk out, and to my car, I can feel the gold dripping down my face and I rested my head on the steering wheel and sobbed.
And I'm back beaches....lucky for you guys, I will be releasing three parts, then leaving you to suffer while I suffer my ACT
I'm sorry, but at least you'll get three parts instead of one, I was feeling the writer in me during welding. And i'm one of two girls in the class, so the teacher doesn't care what we do.
Love you my spiderlings
