Many of the heroes were still reeling from what had just occurred, but were drawn out of their thoughts by the sound of a voice on the big screen.

J. Jonah Jameson: Tragedy. What else can I call it? What more need be said? The damage... The destruction... You saw it with your own eyes. When will people wake up, and realize that everywhere Spider-Man goes... chaos and calamity ensue. Everything Spider-Man touches comes to ruin. And we, the innocents, are left to pick up the pieces.

Many cries of outrage were heard throughout the theatre, along with a few threats from the former spies.

[As cold November rain pours down his face, blending with the tears, Peter watches Jameson's report on a billboard. He slowly comes to a realization that JJJ may have a point.]

J. Jonah Jameson: J. Jonah Jameson, reporting. Good night. And God help us all.

"He blames himself," Bruce murmured, coming to the horrible realisation.

[Cut to Ned and MJ in Ned's apartment as Ned's grandmother, Lola, serves them dinner. They all watch the news in terror in despair.]

News Reporter: ...and we can confirm at least one person has been killed.

MJ: Still nothing?

Ned Leeds: No.

MJ: I'm gonna press it.

Ned Leeds: What? No!

MJ: Peter told me to wait, but... I'm gonna do it.

Ned Leeds: I just wish... I just wish that we could see him. [He makes a gesture with Dr Strange's ring, creating some sparkles in the air.]

Strange's and Wong's eyes widened, he had magic?

MJ: Ned?

Ned Leeds: Yeah?

MJ: Do that again.

Ned Leeds: Yeah. I just wish we could see him. Okay... I just wish we could see Peter.

[He creates a whole portal at which end appears a figure wearing a Spider-Man costume.]

The theatre was so silent you could hear a pin drop.

Ned's Grandmother: Salamangkero!

Ned Leeds: You're right. I am magic.

MJ: Is that him?

Ned Leeds: Yeah, yeah. It has to be.

MJ: Peter. Peter!

Ned Leeds: Hey, Peter!

MJ: Peter!

[The lanky yet muscled stranger runs towards the portal. We cut back to MJ and Ned, growing worried. The suited figure jumps through the portal to reveal -- THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Ned's Lola screams, standing in the doorway.]

Webb Peter: Hi. Hi!

"That's not Peter," Tony said suddenly, startling several people.

[She throws a pillow at the variant Spidey, hitting him square in the chest.]

Webb Peter: No, no, no. It's okay, it's okay. I'm a nice guy.

[Despite the hero's protests, she runs off. The second Spider-Man takes his mask off, revealing the face of Andrew Garfield. At this point, the hype thrusters of many a film fan detonated. He holds his hands out in front of him, getting his bearings]
