Chapter Forty-Four "Homecoming, Part II"

Sixteen Days Remain (Equestria)

Peter stood by the window, the breeze of the outside world brushing through his mane. The entire world knew his secret, yet he couldn't be happier. He wore his costume but left his mask on the nightstand. Twilight found her way next to his side, and the pair shared a loving smile before holding hooves. The night they shared was wondrous, the emotional and physical solidifying of their relationship. Peter's gaze fell to the ground, a saddened expression filling his eyes. He didn't want to leave, not when everything was as perfect as it felt, but he had a matter to attend to.

Twilight, as if reading his mind, used her magic and levitated his backpack to their position. "You shouldn't keep Spitfire waiting too long," she giggled. Peter nodded, firing a strand of webbing across the room to retrieve his mask. Twilight smiled warmly at the stallion, her long mane pulled back into a ponytail. He reached over by the window where a vase rested, pulling out a small flower, and with the utmost care, Peter slid it into Twilight's mane next to her ear. Her cheeks grew hot. "Peter, do you remember the promise we made to each other last night?"

Peter placed his hoof over the mare's shoulder. "I'll never leave you behind."

A blush filled the cheeks of both ponies before their lips met for a passionate kiss. They remained as such, savoring each other's taste. Twilight moaned inside of Peter's mouth as his tongue explored the sanctions, touching the most sensitive areas with gentle precision. She melted into the act of affection, bending to her lover's will, but they eventually parted, only due to their need for oxygen. Peter's lips curled into a wide smile as Twilight's face flushed immensely. He offered her his hoof, and with a soft nod she accepted the gesture, not taking her violet irises away from his hazel eyes.

Peter grinned. "No matter what happens..."

Twilight giggled. "...we'll see everything through together."

Within the dark room, Madame Web sat with her hands clutching at the arms of her chair. Despite her blindness, she stared intently at the orb that hovered inches from her face. Peter's image appeared, but the screen grew black, growing fuzzy as the vision progressed. Everything within the orb grew distorted, causing the memory to shatter. Madame Web cursed under her breath, irritation evident in her voice. She extended her hand, creating another orb to form in her palm, but the second Spider-Man's image appeared, the same thing occurred, leaving the woman to groan desolately.

"I can no longer see the date of Spider-Man's death," Cassandra leaned forward in her seat, cupping her hands over her mouth. "Peter is losing connection to the Web. Why?"

Spike soared across the sky, piercing though every cloud in his path, and Twilight and Spider-Man sat on a custom-made saddle on the dragon's back, a means created by the girl to provide comfort as well as prevent impalement on his body's razor-sharp spikes. The temperature at their high altitude was understandably low, worsened by the wind chill brought about by flying at a fast speed. Twilight shuddered lightly, her body feeling the effects of the lowered temperature, but she smiled inwardly, grateful that Peter reminded her to bring her Spandex, which provided great comfort against the chill of the wind.

Spider-Man, as if sensing Twilight's discomfort, edged closer and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You doing okay?"

Twilight's shivers lessened as Peter's warmth spread over her. "I'm fine. Thanks."

Pulling her back against his chest, Spider-Man tightened his grip. "I know we made a promise, but you don't have to do this."

Turning her head to the side, Twilight gave Peter a glare out of the corner of her eye. "Don't try to talk me out of this, Peter. I'm sticking with you no matter what." She directed her gaze forward before her eyes flashed, glowing with a violet light. Once it faded, Twilight pointed to the side. "We're really close! Drop altitude and take us through that cloud, Spike!"
