Peter Parker/ Avengers Oneshots

Infinity War on Earth

This one is basically Infinity War, but if Peter was on Earth, not in space with Tony. Only difference is MJ is good friends with them now, and knows Peter is Spider-Man. Also, Ned doesn't have a father; I don't know what happened, but he just doesn't, for this one.

Peter was not happy that Tony had sent him home, but there wasn't much he could do about it. So, he focused on helping out wherever he could. He'd helped clean up some of the mess the flying donut had caused, helped take care of the few people that got injured. Right now, he, Ned, and MJ were all at Ned's house. Peter and Ned were building LEGOS; MJ was reading a book.

"I'm really worried about him," Peter was telling Ned. "What if something goes wrong? What if he gets hurt, or killed?"

"Relax, Peter," Ned said. "He's Iron Man. He'll be fine."

"I don't know," Peter said worriedly. "I just... my Spidey-sense has been going off all day. I feel like... I feel like something's wrong."

"It'll be fine," MJ said dismissively. "You're on edge right now, which is completely understandable. Just watch. Tony Stark will come back with that wizard dude, and everything will be fine."

"I guess," Peter sighed.

Everything was fine, for about two hours. Peter, Ned, and MJ had walked down to Delmar's, and were sitting in the store talking when Peter suddenly sat bolt upright, his eyes darting around, looking panicked.

"Something's happening," he said, his voice low. "Something's really wrong."

He lurched to his feet, hurrying out of the store. Ned and MJ exchanged worried looks, following.

They burst back into Ned's kitchen, just in time to see his mother and sister look up, terror in their eyes, as they crumbled into dust.

"Mom! Caitlyn" Ned exclaimed. "Peter, what's happening? What's going on? Where's my mom? Where's Caitlyn?"

MJ's eyes had gone wide, looking terrified. Peter looked sick.

"I don't know, I don't..."

Peter stopped talking abruptly. Ned, who had been staring at the spot where his mother disappeared, whirled around. Peter was staring at his hand, which was slowly crumbling.

"No," Ned said, shaking his head. "No, no no no..."

Peter looked up at them. "I don't feel so good. I don't- I don't know what's happening- I don't-"

Peter tried to take a step forward but lost his balance and fell. Ned and MJ caught him, and he latched onto them.

"No, no, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go!" Peter whimpered. "I don't wanna go!"

"You're going to be alright," MJ said, trying to ignore the tears that were coming into her eyes. "You're fine."

Ned and MJ laid Peter gently onto the ground. Peter looked up at them, tears in his own eyes. "I'm sorry," he whispered. "Tell-tell May, and Mr. Stark-"

Peter never got to finish, as he crumbled into dust.

Ned and MJ sat in silence for a moment, tears falling down both of their faces. Ned suddenly pulled out his phone.

"We gotta tell May," he said slowly. "We gotta... we gotta find out if she's okay."

MJ nodded. "Okay. I'm going to... I've got to go find my parents, see if they're okay. Are you... are you going to be okay?"

Ned shook his head. "No," he said. "But you can go. I'll go... if May's still here, I'll go to her, and we'll... we'll figure something out."

MJ nodded. "Okay. I'm just... I'm gonna go. I'll... I'll come back, once I know if- I'll meet you at Peter's apartment, okay, even if May's not there. I'll meet you there."

Ned nodded, and MJ left.

Ned took a deep breath, pressed May's contact number, and held the phone to his ear, praying she'd pick up.

She did, on the second ring.

"Ned?" she asked. "What's going on? Where's Peter? Are you guys okay? People are just... people are just turning to dust, all over the place, they're just gone... where's Peter?"

"May..." Ned hesitated.

"No, oh my God, no..." May said. "No, Ned, please, don't tell me he-"

"He did." Ned closed his eyes, a few more tears leaking out. "I'm... I'm sorry."

"Were you- were you with him?" May asked, her voice thick with tears.

"Yeah," Ned's voice broke. "MJ and I both were."

"Ned, oh my God, I'm so sorry, I can't imagine having to watch that. Where's... where's your mom, or sister? Can I talk to your mom?" May asked.

Ned shook his head, even thougn he knew May couldn't see him. "No. They're both... they're both gone, too."

"Ned, honey," May said. "I'm at... I'm at my apartment, why don't you come over, and we'll figure out what to do."

"Okay," Ned breathed. "MJ said... MJ said she was going to go see if her family was okay, and then meet me at your apartment, actually. I hope... I hope that's okay."

"Of course that's okay," May said immediately. "Just... I'll see you in a few, okay? We'll... we'll figure this out."

"Okay," Ned nodded. "I'll... I'll come over, then."

He ended the call, stood, and left the house, avoiding looking at the places where his mother, sister, and best friend had turned to dust. He walked blindly, on autopilot, towards May's apartment, wondering how the hell the world was going to recover from this one.

Well, that is so terribly written I'm cringing at myself, but it's fine, because I still made myself sad. Sorry, but I hope it made you sad, too.
