"Great, guess I wasn't the only one to be pulled here", I said walking into the street and pulling my hood down. Once I was in a brighter area I saw the spider ma...woman's eyes go wide.

"Jack!". How does she know my name? Standing up straight she pulled her hood back and took her mask off to show someone I did not expect to see.

"It's me, Gwen!"

"Oh god the last person I would want to see during all of this no matter what universe they come from"

"Oh god the last person I would want to see during all of this no matter what universe they come from". Letting out an annoyed grunt I pulled up my hood beginning to walk down the road. My anger now changed to annoyed. So I guess I did get my anger out in some way.

"wait, don't you recognize me?", Gwen said, chasing me. She was now walking next to me.

"Oh trust me I'm very aware of who you are. Which in my universe is a colossal pain in my ass which I'm sure you are in yours"

"Wait, other universe? Is that why everything looks different here?"

"Yep, welcome to the club. Now go solve it your own way, I already have my own", I said, speeding up my pace.

"Why are you so distant and rude? aren't we friends in your universe?"

"*gags* Please don't say that. I actually almost threw up in my mouth. The thought of me and you being "friends" is sickening. Now if you'll excuse me I need to brood about the fact you're here", I said trying to walk away from her but she stood in front of me stopping me. My lord she is starting to already act like my Gwen, pissing me off.

"Move or I'll do it for you"

"I just need a moment to ask you what's going on", she pleaded. I walked up to her staring down at her.

"Not my problem", I said before walking past her. I also made sure to shove into her shoulder. Hopefully she gets the message.

"There's no way you could be Jack. He's a kind and caring guy nothing like you", She said, getting angry at me. Seems she's getting one message.

"Sorry to disappoint sweet heart. I'm not your Jack so scram", I said while flipping her off without looking. Thankfully she stopped following me.

Need to head back to May's. Hopefully Peter found some way to send me home and for other universe Gwen. Guess she'll have to find her own way back. Shame, maybe if she showed up when I showed up she could have ran into Peter. Oh how very unlucky of her. Thankfully I'm good at retracing my steps so getting back didn't take too long. Walking in I found Aunt May talking to Peter, breaking up their conversation.

"Your back, are you doing ok?", Peter asked. I thought about telling him about Gwen but then quickly changed my mind. All that matters is I get back. She'll be fine.

"So you have a way to get me home yet?", I asked not expecting him to have a way. Then again today has been full of surprises.

"I actually do. I just needed to finish downloading a software that'll shut down the collider using this Goober", he said holding up a flash drive. Did he just call that thing a goober?
