Marvel Zombies Resurrection: Seeking a Bright Future

Our Family, Our Connection

"Go back!" Peter could hear Franklin's voice as he and the two kids were in the Fantasti-Car, escaping from the apocalyptic event that had hit Earth without any warning at all. Peter just shook his head, denying the wishes of his nephew in all but blood. He had promised Susan that he would protect them at all cost, and he was going to do so no questions asked. He was driving while Valeria and Franklin were in the back seats of the flying car. Peter really wanted to make their wish come true, but he couldn't risk them... not now. "Please! Uncle Peter... Our family is back there somewhere!"

"You don't think I don't know that?!" Peter snapped, something that he really didn't want to do at this moment. He was worried sick for everyone that went on the mission. He had already seen Thor as an undead flying around and infecting other heroes, villains and civilians. And Peter didn't want to think the worst, but there is a high chance that the members of the Fantastic Four were also infected. "I promised your mother that I would protect you and Valeria, Franklin!" Peter noticed how the young teen lowered his head a bit, which made Peter frown a bit. He hated seeing Franklin in such a way. And he was also worried about Valeria, she hadn't said a single word in a while now. "Just let me get you two to safety. I'll go back and see if I can find your family, alright?"

"Alright, Uncle Pe-"

"Uncle Peter! Look out!" Peter snapped his head to the side, immediately seeing Adrian Toomes, as an undead. The sight of one of his oldest villains turning into such a state, made Peter sad. Adrian didn't deserve this outcome in life. He and the rest of his villains deserved better. Peter could hear the slight screeching that Vulture was making, which made Peter immediately react by turning the wheel of the Fantasti-Car. But it was too late as Vulture impacted the Fantasti-Car, damaging it slightly.

"Damn it!" Peter cursed a bit as he tried to regain control of the now damaged flying car. It took him a bit because he also had to watch for Franklin and Valeria, which were still inside of the Fantasti-Car. He sighed a bit before regaining control and heading straight to the safe haven that he knew that most undead wouldn't think of. It had been a precaution made by him and Stephen Strange. "We're okay! We're just a little banged-"

"Uncle Peter, look! It's Uncle Johnny!" Peter sighed in relief as he saw the streams of flames heading towards his direction. It was a miracle if you got his opinion on the matter. From what Peter could see, Johnny looked as normal as he could look, though it didn't help Peter feel quite assured yet. There was something wrong and Peter knew it deep in his heart. He just hoped that Johnny may be able to share some insight on the matter and help them get away from all of this.

"Thank god..." Peter said, but still kept a close eye on Johnny. Something was wrong, something really wrong. None of the metahumans that were undead were following him. And while he knew that Johnny was quite fast, he knew that others were faster than even he was. "Okay, kids. You're about to be in much safer-" It was then that Peter heard a familiar screeching coming from Johnny. A screeching that he could hear all around him because of the undead. His Spider-Senses flared up, warning him of impending danger to his person. And it was then that Peter realized Johnny was long gone. "Oh god... Kids hold-"

And in a matter of seconds, everything went from bad to worse. Peter felt heat on his face, burning the flesh of his skin as he was shot down from the Fantasti-Car. He didn't know what was happening right now. His eyes were blurry, almost closing because of the hit. But then he remembered his actual mission, the mission he had been entrusted by Susan Storm. He had to protect Franklin and Valeria at all costs! So he opened his eyes and regained his senses.

"Fuck!" Peter cursed as he saw the Fantasti-Car impaled on a nearby building. He had to act fast! He couldn't risk the kids also being infected, he would never forgive himself if he allowed such a thing. He would prefer to die before allowing such a thing to happen. So he swung as fast as he could, nearing the building. "Franklin! Valeria!" Peter was shouting without a care in the world. It didn't matter to him if the undead could hear him, all that he cared about was about the kids in his care. So when he made it inside the building and all he could see was debris all around him but no sign of the kids, which made him worried sick about them. "Franklin! Val-"
