Peter put his glasses on, and asked, "What does E.D.I.T.H. Stand for?"

"E.D.I.T.H. Stands for Even Dead I'm The Hero."

Peter chuckled, and then he was sad again, he took off his glasses and looked at the picture of him and Tony on his nightstand "I want to start something myself, a new group, because I don't need you anymore. You taught me everything I needed, now I can teach others." Peter said. And he knew where to begin, Avengers Compound.

As he arrived, he saw Bruce pained by his presence, "Not more teenagers." He sighed.

"Sorry, Tony said I was allowed to use his tech now."

"Tony's dead." Peter took out his glasses. "Oh, I see." Bruce led him to where Tony would work, on his way, he saw Eli. "Who's that?" Peter asked.

"A teenage super soldier, we found out today."

Peter thought, he could be a part of the team. Peter went into the room, and looked around him, what he needed first, was a new suit. As he designed it, Eli walked in. "Hey." Peter noticed him.

"What are you doing?" Eli asked.

"I'm designing something. What's your name?"

"Eli."

"Eli, you're a super soldier, right?" Peter didn't want him to think it was already made up.

"Yeah."

"I want to start a team for teenage superheroes, what do you think?"

"As in, I could do something with this?"

"Yeah."

"And who are you to start a superhero team?"

Peter put his logo for his suit up on the screen.

"Oh, I see." Eli smiled.

Teddy walked through the compound, and saw two people looking at him. "Hi?" He asked.

"Teddy, you're allowed to be in your skrull form, you know that, right?" Carol told him.

"Most people find my skrull form disturbing, so, I'll just stay like this."

"Okay."

"Why are they looking at me like that?" Teddy asked.

"They apparently met you in another reality."

"What?"

"Not that important, don't worry."

"Oh. Okay." He kept walking through the halls and saw Eli and Peter laughing and talking.

"Hey, Peter." Teddy went into the room.

"Hey. Oh, Teddy, I want to ask you something."

"What is it?"

"I am sort of making a new team, of superheroes, and I was wondering, can you do anything special?"

"Well," Teddy changed into his natural, green self.

"Cool." Eli said.

Teddy changed back, and smiled.

"Do you wanna join?" Peter asked.

"Sure." He smiled.

"What about names?" Eli asked.

America walked into the room. "In a different universe were you called Hulkling."

"Me?" Teddy asked and America nodded. "I like that name, it's like the Hulk."

"Yeah, you do change into a green guy as well."

"What's your name, then?" Eli asked.

"I'm Miss America."

"Cool."

"Because I've genetically got the Super Soldier serum in my blood, I want to take over my grandfather's title, I want to be the Patriot."

"Now that we're talking, America, do you want to join our team?" Peter asked.

"What team?"

"Our team of teenage superheroes. I'm calling it the Young Avengers initiative."

"Sure, Yeah, of course. I don't really need one of those suits, though, I can handle it perfectly without."

"Okay, Cool."

"Hey! I'm here as well!" Loki appeared in the room.

"He does that." America sighed.

"I want to join."

"No, you're not a superhero."

"Yeah I am."

"You tried killing me."

"That's because you didn't want to help me kill someone else."

"Not really helping." Peter murmured.

"I can do a lot of things, okay? I mean, look." He disappeared, and reappeared as five of him.

"Nice, we still don't want you." America said.

"Peter?" Loki looked at him.

"What America said..."

"Shit." He became one again, "Anyway, I'll be taking a room so I can annoy the Avengers, bye."
