spider-man II.

"even after all of this i will choose you again and again" mr. den

the final battle at the statue of liberty had left its mark. the new york skyline, though still majestic, seemed to carry the weight of the struggle that had just concluded.

walker stood on a nearby rooftop, the cool evening air brushing against his face as he looked down at the remnants of the battle. the city lights flickered in the distance, and the battered liberty stood as a reminder of the sacrifices made. the villains had been sent back to their respective universes, and the immediate threat had been neutralized, but the cost was apparent.

doctor strange appeared beside walker, his cloak billowing slightly in the breeze. his face was a mixture of fatigue and determination, reflecting the gravity of their actions. "it's done," strange said, his voice carrying a note of finality. "the multiverse is stabilized, and the threats are contained. but there's one more thing we need to address."

walker nodded, his heart heavy with the weight of what was to come. he knew that the decision to erase the memories of his friends was imminent, and the knowledge brought a bittersweet edge to his relief. he glanced over his shoulder to where y/n and aryan were waiting with anxious expressions. they had seen the chaos and the heroism, but now they were about to face the ultimate consequence.

they been waiting in the shadows, trying to process the magnitude of what had just happened. as walker approached them, he could see the confusion and the pain in their eyes, the lingering questions that had no easy answers.

y/n stepped forward, her gaze steady despite the turmoil of emotions swirling within her. "walker, what's going to happen now?" she asked, her voice tinged with worry.

he took a deep breath, the weight of his decision pressing heavily on him. "there's something i need to do, something to protect you both from the dangers that come with knowing who i am."

aryan's face was a mixture of concern and disbelief. "you mean, we're going to forget everything?"

walker nodded, his throat tightening. "it's the only way to keep you safe. if you don't remember who i am, you won't be in danger from all the enemies that know about me. it's the only way."

y/n's eyes filled with tears. "but walker, we've been through so much together. how can we just forget all of it?"

walkers heart ached at her words. he reached out, gently placing his hand on her cheek. "i know it's hard. it's tearing me apart to do this. but i need you to trust me. i promise you, this isn't the end. we will find our way back to each other. no matter what happens, i won't give up on us."

aryan looked between walker and y/n, his own eyes glistening. "you're really sure about this?"

he nodded, trying to steady his voice. "i'm sure. i believe that our bond is strong enough to withstand this. we've been through so much, and i believe we can find each other again, even if it takes time."

y/n wiped her tears away, managing a shaky smile. "i don't want to forget you. i want to hold onto our memories, but if this is what it takes i want you to be safe too."

walker felt a pang of sorrow and gratitude. "thank you y/n/n. it means more to me than you know."

doctor strange, having observed the emotional exchange, stepped forward. "the spell is prepared. it's time."

walker took a final, lingering look at y/n and and aryan, memorizing the expressions on their faces. he wanted to hold onto this moment, to etch it into his memory before it all changed. the gravity of the decision weighed heavily on him, but he was resolute in his purpose.

as strange began the incantation, a swirl of magical energy enveloped the area. the light was bright and all-encompassing, and walker felt its warmth as it began its work. the spell would erase the memories of walker from y/n and aryan's minds, a necessary sacrifice to ensure their safety.

walker turned to y/n and aryan, his heart full of unspoken promises. "i'll always cherish our time together. no matter what happens, i want you to know that i believe in us. i know we'll find our way back to each other someday."

y/n's voice was barely audible over the hum of the spell's energy. "we'll miss you, walker. i hope we can find each other again."

aryan nodded, his expression one of mixed sadness and hope. "take care, man. we'll remember you in our own way, even if we can't remember you directly."

as the spell's light grew brighter, walker felt a deep sense of finality. he wanted to hold onto every last fragment of their shared memories, but he knew that it was time to let go. the light washed over him, and the world seemed to blur as the spell took effect.

when the light finally faded, walker found himself standing alone on the rooftop, the city lights twinkling in the distance. y/n and aryan were no longer in sight, their memories of him erased, their lives moving forward without the shadow of his identity.

walker took a deep breath, his heart heavy but resolute. as he descended from the rooftop and stepped into the night. walker carried with him the belief that, despite the pain of separation, their bond was strong enough to endure. the path ahead was uncertain, but he held onto the hope that fate would guide them back to each other. no matter what challenges laid ahead.
