Y/N leaves the house while Nat, Yelena and Wanda share a look.
"You heard the way he said that, Midnight too?"
"We should be careful."
They all nod before following Y/N onto the Quinjet and flying back to the compound. Meanwhile with Peter, he sits on Midtown's rooftop, broken and miserable. Ned and MJ walk up to him and embrace him as he cries into their shoulders.
"Peter, there's...there's some people here....who..."
MJ and Ned slowly let go of Peter. He gets up and notices Webb and Raimi Peters at the top of the school's tower. They jump down to his level.
"Hey. Wait, wait, whoa."
"Sorry....about May," Raimi Peter says as he holds up his hand.
"Yeah. Sorry. I got some understanding of..."
"No, please don't tell me that you know what I'm going through."
"Okay," Webb Peter sighs.
"She's gone...and it's all my fault. She died for nothing. So I'm gonna do what I should've done in the first place."
Peter reaches for the box.
"Peter..."
"Please, don't. You don't belong here. Either of you, so I'm sending you home. Those other guys are from your worlds, right? So you deal with it. If they die, if you kill them...That's on you. It's not my problem. I don't care anymore. I'm done. I'm really sorry that I dragged you into this. But you have to go home now. Good luck."
Peter reaches for the spell box, but MJ moves it away from him, wordlessly encouraging Peter to hear his counterparts out.
"My uncle Ben was killed. It was my fault."
"I lost...I lost Gwen. My, uh...She was my MJ. I couldn't save her. I'm never gonna be able to forgive myself for that. But I carried on. Tried to, uh...tried to keep going, tried to keep being the...that friendly neighbourhood Spiderman, because I know that's what she would have wanted. But...at some point, I just...I stopped pulling my punches. I got rageful. I got bitter. I just don't want you, to end up like...like me."
"The night...Ben died, I hunted down the man who I thought did it. I wanted him dead. I got what I wanted. It didn't make it better. It took me a long time to...learn to get through that darkness."
"I wanna kill him. I wanna tear him apart. I can still hear her voice in my head..."
He briefly breaks down, the composes himself.
"Even after she was hurt, she said to me that we did the right thing. She told me that with great power..."
Raimi Peter's eyes widen as he recognises those words.
"...comes great responsibility."
Peter looks up at Raimi Peter, who looks over to Webb Peter who nods slightly, teary-eyed.
"Wait, what? How do you know that?"
"Uncle Ben said it."
"The day he died. Maybe she didn't die for nothing Peter."
"Itsy bitsy spiders, grieve their family's deaths. Along came midnight and ate them while they wept."
They all feel their spider sense tingle before a thud follows showing the form of some alien.
"Who the hell are you?"
Webb Peter steps up.
"Ah Peter, we meet again."
