As the sharp blade pierced his chest, a gasp escaped his lips, but his eyes remained focused on Tony, filled with love and determination. The pain was unimaginable, but Peter's resolve remained unbroken.Tony watched in horror as Peter fell to the ground, his life slowly slipping away. Time seemed to stand still as he rushed to Peter's side, desperately trying to provide some comfort, though he knew it was too late.In Peter's final moments, he mustered a weak smile, his words feeble but filled with love and gratitude. "I did it... for you, Tony. You're my hero," he whispered, before taking his last breath.Tony felt a crushing weight of guilt and sorrow settle in his heart. He had lost his young protégé, the son he never had. The sacrifice that Peter had made would haunt Tony forever, a reminder of the cost of heroism and the devastating price they sometimes had to pay.The world mourned the loss of the bright, young hero who had given everything for the ones he loved.
