CHAPTER 3:SLAPBACK TIME

PETER POV

I am now lifting a dumbell that I created with one of my aliens as it now is the same weight as a car as my muscle now is being strained but soon it disappears as I am now shirtless.

After reaching a thousand counts, I lift the dumbbell as the hanger can support the weight as I was for breath as I am doing my daily routine by working my ass off to get this body back into a peak human body shape.

Or maybe surpass it.

It is now only 2 days before I had to go check in into my workplace as I used all these past days figuring out how to make my body stronger and of course take a look at all my alien arsenal.

And let me tell you, it contains all the alien from the Ben 10 universe, even some that Ben Tennyson did not have as I already counted I have about 85 transformations in this Ultimatrix as I barely practice a little amount for these aliens.

Of course, there is a voice message left for me by the ROB who sent me here. As for him saying my transformation is stronger in this universe, well I never had a chance to prove it since I never encounter a supervillain yet.

*Gulp*

I drink a glass of mineral water as I am wiling the sweats on my body after running on a treadmill for an hour at the max speed, do almost 1000 push-ups, sit-ups, curl-ups and lastly weightlifting. These are all the beginner plan for my workout.

Opened the refrigerator, I decided to directly drink the egg by departing the yolk and drink it as Steve Rogers does in Avengers: Earth Mightiest Hour. It did not taste that bad or good but after eating a banana, I feel better.

Taking off my workout attire as I throw them to my washing machine which I acted to start its work to clean up my cloth, I walk to my bathroom while naked as I enjoy the warm feeling of the water hitting my body.

Spending about half an hour in the bathroom, I walk out while wiping my wet body as I go to my room that now is decorated like a gaming room as I open my wardrobe, and pick my attire for the day which is a simple black shirt and long light blue paint.

I then approach the mirror to take a look at my face which look like a male who is in his 20s as I comb my hair to make it goes to my right side. Putting down the comb, I go toward my living room as I open my Smart TV to see today news though I feel annoyed and groan seeing who is on the Television right now.

J.Jonah Jameson, the person who hated me the most. Well. the feeling is mutual you damn old man. When will you die already after you smoke a cigar in like every time Peter Parker met you in your office? Just drop dead already. With you dead, my ear will feel peaceful after not hearing your stupid rambling that did not make any sense at all.

Why the fuck is he still able to talk on the television? Just ban him already. Surely some people think the same as me.

Stretching both my arm while cracking my neck, I turn into another channel since I never want to to hear his words. There are other announcers who I rather hear than that damn old man.

As I stumbled upon New York News channel as it now shows me in my alien forms defeating Shocker and Doughboy.

" I am Amanda Brit from the New York Channel News. A few days ago, the city is being hit by an attack from Shocker and Doughboy with the new Spider-man proceed to engage fight with them but he is being knocked out. Just when the villains about to deliver the finishing blow toward the spider-themed hero, a creature that oddly looks like a red manta ray appears, blasting away the Shocker."

The channel then shows a clip of me shooting my eyebeam toward Shocker.

"And he then fights with Doughboy who is giving him a quite hard time until he got surrounded. But the next thing that happens is a fire torrent that scatters apart, Doughboy as a first creature is the next one to appear that seemed to use his pyrokinesis to pressure the villain as it then changes into a werewolf that releases a howl that defeated the villain."

And that statement is being reported in every channel news knowing New York now has a shapeshifter which worries them.

"Hmm. Right now, I am probably under the radar of those heroes. And maybe will meet them sooner when I kicked Miles's but that day easily."

Shutting down the television, I go to my room to wear a white singlet with long black pant and complete it by wearing sort shoes as I decide to run around the city.

*Huff**Huff**Huff**Huff*

I am now gasping for breath as I just run around Washington DC for about 30 or is it 40 laps without stopping.

Usually, this kind of feat will make world Record but with the existence of many super being on this planet, I guess it does not matter for me to be listed in Guinness World Record.

My leg new feels like jelly with me now is on my knee, trying to regain my breath as I am now admiring the view of this place.

"This is one good view," I mutter as I decide to search for a drink vending machine for myself to drink a bottle of mineral water.

Spotting one just under a tree a few feet meter away from me, I take out my wallet and enter the money as I choose for a bottle of mineral water.

Grabbing the bottle, I take a gulp and take my time to drink it as I am now sitting under a tree, enjoying the breeze that hit my face.

*BOOM*

An explosion sounded like it comes from the city as I sigh knowing my relax time has been cut off.

"Hero Time." Walking behind the tree, I activate my Ultimatrix as I scroll past some alien I have used these past days.

"Time to give him a try. Hope the citizen will bear with him." I smack my hand onto the watch has a green flash occurs on my body as my skin tuned into the green with my face has turned into completely green skin with 4 bulging eyes appeared from it as I sprouted some new limbs om my lower part of my body with wings now has grown on my back.

"Stinkfly!" I announced as I immediately take flight as I headed to the city as I see 2 men who seem to have enhanced strength with them now seems to be sprouting frame from their mouth.

"Extremis?" I mutter seeing this men ability to remember the antagonist of Iron Man 3.

But these guys seem to use their ability without worry as they already make all the police officers retreat.

Some bullet hit their body and pierce them, but they seem ignored that made me know this guy has a healing factor too.

I dived down toward them as I use my stinger to stab one on its neck as I spin my body sending the bleeding Extremis human to crash to a car as the other one quickly rushes to me, to choke me but my mouth already spit green goo on his face as I dodge to the right and swept his leg off the ground with my stinger.

Okay. Time to become something more humanoid.

My hand slap the Ultimatrix symbol as I grow into a humanoid body with orange fur envelop my body as my face now morphs into more tiger-like as 2 black claws sprouted out from my knuckle as Wolverine does with me wearing a wrestler costume that coloured in green with white as the Ultimatrix symbol is on my chest.

"Rath!" I roared toward the Extremis people who get thrown a few steps backwards due to my roar as it also cracks windows nearby.

"Let me tell you something Extremis people, Rath will wreck you both like blowing off some candle," I said as I leisurely pick up a car as I leap as I smash the car toward the left as he evades but I swing it one more as he released a fire breath that makes the car exploded.

I ignored the explosion on my face as I rush forward, as my movement catch him off guard as I grab his face, slamming his face toward the road without hesitation as both of his ears are bleeding with his backhead is the same.

Another one manages to land a punch on my cheek but that did not even make me hurt but now I feel hot as his hand now is on fire but I already deliver an uppercut that breaks his jaw.

"Gurghh!" His body land on the ground as their injuries are now regenerating back making me snort.

"You heal back from my beating? Good. Rath now can wreck you without holding back." I leap on a building as then jump toward the Extremis people near me.

"Crusher Drive!" I land on his stomach with my elbow hit his body very hard breaking his rib and make him spit out blood from his mouth as some of them hit my face making me growl as I stab his collar bone.

"Rarghh!" I slash apart leaving him with his collar bone bleeding profusely as he stares in the sale of what I just have done as my eyes now are locked toward another one who flinches when he notices my eyes now are on him.

"Fuck!" He cursed as he quickly runs leaving his friend or partner alone here as he probably feels intimidated by my eyes.

"You think you can run away from Rath? Rath can catch you easily at any time. Time to see if you can run away from your almost dead friend. " I pick up the bleeding man as I said my body and throw him toward the other Extremis people as he avoids it.

The person I threw now has laid on a car as I lung toward the second Extremis man as my hand grab his throat with me grin maliciously seeing his eyes now has fear in them.

"Head Smasher!" I land down using his head as my landing place as his nose is bleeding, the same goes for his head as his mouth now has a mouth as I pick him up and then smash his head to the ground 3 times.

"This is a reminder for you scums, do not run away from Rath or Rath will make you never able to run away from Rath anymore," I told the unconscious Extremis men as I released a sigh knowing they probably did not hear that.

Many pedestrians now are starting to take pictures of my action.

"That is right pedestrians. From now on, Rath will finish off the villains so you guys can spend more time with your family." I exclaim proudly as I feel cringe saying that but then my ear heard something land on my back and a minute later a web covers my face.

"Great. Spider-boy." I mutter as I rip off the web and use my palm to block a kick from Miles who then use his venom blast to taser me but I already take a step backwards as his attack failed.

I kick his chest backwards making him grunt but then he shot web toward the tree on the right and left as I coach down knowing what he plans to do.

After all, it is one of many movements from Peter Parker to make himself launch like a rocket to catch his enemy off guard.

"Huuppp!" Miles launch himself toward me but I already had a motorcycle in my hand as Miles lens widens seeing this.

"Oh shit." He cursed as I grin widely knowing he already knows what to do with him.

"SPIDER HOMERUN!" I hit Miles with the bike sending him only a few meters away as I look at the bike who has a dent on it as I drop it.

"Let me tell you something Spider Junior who is not cool as the Original Spider-man, Rath will beat you like the Extremis people to the point no one recognises you. So you better listen to Rath what just told you." I threaten him as I turn my back and leap on a building.

"Hmm. Where should Rath-" A kick land on my back as I growl in announce as I glare at Miles.

"Yeah, say all you want Tiger man but this Spider will kick your butt very badly and make a zoo for you to live in," Miles told me as I rush toward him as I delivered a right hook to his face but that is a feint as Miles for it as I once again kick him on his stomach but this time with extra power behind it as the little spider landed on a car as I tower over him.

"You are not a match for Rath." I jump toward him as Miles jump from the car but I use my feet and leap toward him and swept his leg but he dodges it as I thrust my claw toward his collar but this guy is nimble enough to dodge it.

"Hands off Kitty." He said to me as it only fuels me with anger.

"I am no Kitty. I am Rath!" As anger rises, my movement start to become faster as Miles now is always defending from my claws and kick as he tries his best to counter-attack but it ended when I open my mouth to bite him as both my claws make way toward his stomach as the right one stab into his suit.

"Get away from me!" He tried to use his venom blast to blast me away but I already throw him toward a truck that has an oil trail as I approach the trail.

"Here is why you never mess with Rath." I scratch the road with my claw creating spak for a second as the oil trails are out the fire as it approaches the truck that has Miles laid his body as it then exploded.

*BOOOM*

Miles body gets thrown to the road with his suit is now torn apart as I can see his right lense is gone as I pick him up as bring him closer toward me.

"Guess you are not good enough like Peter Parker does when he is the Spider-man," I mutter to him in a low tone as Miles flinch hearing this as he is about to open his mouth to say something but I headbutt him, knocking him out as the cops now are about to arrive at this place.

"Time to go." I then leap over a building leaving an injured former junior of mine as seconds after I disappear, a heroine appear.

"Miles." She said in a soft tone as she picks up the spiderling and checks him up.

"Silk to Avengers. Require medical attention. Spider-man here is badly injured." Silk said through his ear-com.

"Quinjet is on its way to pick him up." Jarvis, the AI belong to Tony Stark inform her.

"Wonder who did this, you Miles." Silk thought in her head as then a teenager approaches them.

"Damn. Rath beat up this new Spider-man." He said as Silk stares at him.

"Rath? Is it perhaps the person who causes this to him?" She asks him as he nods his head.

"Yeah. I mean look at this video. He wrecks this Spider here." The teenager shows the video of Rath brutality against the Extremis men and Spider-man.

Silk from seeing this as she sees how Rath completely outmatched Miles despite the alien brawler way of fighting.

Soon, the Quinjet arrives as she boards it by putting Miles on the bed as she sees another Spider-Woman, who goes by the name Jessica and Shadowcat, a mutant who goes by the name Kitty Pride.

"Whoa. That is one nasty fight Miles involved in. Who did this to him?" Kitty asks Silk.

"Someone goes by the name Rath." Silk said as she types something on the computer as many images and videos of Rath appears on the screen.

"His way of fighting, remind me of Wolverine," Jessica commented as they all now see how Rath just makes the truck exploded as Miles get hit by it.

"No wonder our Spidey is injured like this," Jessica added as they see Rath seems to mutter something toward Miles before goes away.

"I wonder what he just said to Miles to make him flinch like that?" Silk voiced out as all the heroines did not have any ideas.

"We can ask Miles after they get treated," Kitty said as they all have arrived at the Avengers towers.

...

Meanwhile, Peter now is in his living room, playing Fortnite while slurping a grape flavoured smoothie.

"Yup. We are going to get a victory here boys." He mutters as he plays the game until 1 a.m.

Days passed as Peter keep flung the same routine of building strength for his body and keep fiddling with his Ultimatrix.

"So now I am one of yours?" He now is with Mike as he now wears a suit as both male now is doing their job after Peter being introduced to all the thing as Secret Service Agent.

Luckily, his brain still functions normally to remember many things in a short time.

"Yes. And bad luck for you since we need to guard a Senator who will be going to Manhattan for a personal business. You did not need to ride in one of our vehicles. Just go alien to scout is from the sky." He told me as I nodded my head.

"And for your team, it will be delayed but you will get to know them sooner," Mike said to me as I see many armoured vehicles.

"Remember. Anything coming in our way, inform us immediately and if it was any superhuman being, you know shat to do." Mike reminded me.

"Sir, yes sir." I salute him as Mike snort seeing this as all the vehicles move with a limousine is on the centre as I activate my Ultimatrix.

A flash of green occurs as I am now Jetray.

I immediately take a flight and maintained a position above the limousine as my eyes now are scouting everywhere possible of any sing of enemies.

And the journey is smooth as we arrive at Manhattan as we now arrive at a building which I know is one of the Senator living places as I land on a building, opposite to it as my eyes still scouring the place.

Until a fire truck hit one of the armoured cars as I immediately dived down to scoop up 3 agents as the dire truck exploded as I shield them with my wings, wincing in pain as many vehicles part hit my body.

Out of nowhere, a helicopter appears as it shoots a missile toward the limousine. My eyes glow green as I released my eye beam that destroys the missile.

My eyes then move toward the helicopter as I shoot toward the pilot as the helicopter now has lost its controller and crash toward the road.

But the battle still did not end at a bus stop as all the agent has taken out their guns and rifles as they pointed their weapons toward the bus.

"Please be supervillains Please be a supervillain." I chanted in my mind as I crave for some action as the door of the bus open as a black bald man, walk out as his eyes are closed.

"Sir, stand down before we shoot you," Mike said but the bald man opens his eyes as then his entire body get envelop in Rock as he then runs toward us.

"Open fire!" They all shot toward the incoming humanoid stone dude who just brushes off the bullet as I shot a neuroshock beam toward his chest that seems able to hold him back.

Some of the agents who see this throw grenade around him as they exploded making the stone side have a crack on his body as the face part now revealed his eyes as the rock assembled itself back.

Another bus appears but this time, they have some heavy weapons on them.

"I handle this rock guy!" I said toward Mike who nods his head and starts to bark orders of protecting the Senator as the sound of guns and rifles with other weapons sounded in this alley as police start to set up a perimeter in this area to avoid the citizens get harm.

"Rarghhh!" The Rock dude starts to throw many wild punches that I avoid as I use my tail to blast his any time, making his body crack a little bit as he then jumped toward me but my tail blast him back toward the road.

"Look here, Stoney, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. And if you want my recommendation, please choose the hard way. I've been itching to beat some sense into people like you." I told him as his rock hand extend themselves toward me as I avoid it with me destroy the extended stone arms but then it regenerates as I take notice how this stone guy now has grown inches taller.

"Okay. Time to tag Jetray with someone else." My hand slap the Ultimatrix as I grow shorter with green armour skin covers my entire body as I am wearing a white and a black stripe attire in my body with the Ultimatrix is at the centre of my body.

"Slapback? Huh, this guy, I had him huh? I am expecting to change into my heavy hitter but well, his guy will do." I said as I make use of my small body to dodge a hit from Stoney as I roll through his peg and decide to kick his butt that only moves him a little forward as he turns behind with him now raises both of his fists.

"Crap basket," I mutter as my body shines as we split into two but still get thrown backwards.

"Now I remember this guy ability." My clone and I stare at each other as we both nod our head, knowing what we had to do.

"Come here, Stone guy. " My clone teases him as the Stone guy wishes to him and delivers a punch toward my come who just stand there, bracing himself for the punch.

*CLANG!*

The sound of something being hit by a very hard thing sounded as my clone is perfectly fine as he grins seeing Stone guy has his fist break as he retracts back his fist as I quickly leap toward his head, delivering a pick on his face followed by my clone who backhands his nose.

We both then punch his knees as the stone part on his knee get crack as he swings wildly his arm to throw us away but with me and my clone weight that is now heavier than normals we did not budge as I uppercut him as my come then use my head for him to jump over the Stone guy, and smack him down toward the road with a hammer punch.

We both then curl ourselves into the sphere as we both rolled toward the Stone guy, hitting his body as his chest crack revealing his human form as we continue to roll toward him destroying all the stone layers of his body as the Stone guy now is on his knee with his nose and right eye is bleeding as the only stone layers left on his body is on his back and his left knee.

"Want to do the same as Rath did to that little Spider?" I ask my clone who has that evil smirk on his face as I now have uncurled myself from being from a curl as I rip off a pole as my clone bounce his curl form toward me as I hit him with the pole with all my strength as my clone hit the stone guy directly on his chest as he spits out blood from his mouth as he crashes to a tree that gets split into half.

My clone approaches me as he now is in his humanoid form as we high five.

"Win for the Best Hero." We cheered as we laugh but then we stop laughing noticing how the other side is still busy as we both turn into balls, and start rolling toward the armed guys.

Many bullets hit us but all of them did not injure us at all as our ball from his some of them as one tried to stab me but his knife get destroyed as I incur and delivers a playmaker that knocks his teeth out.

I pick up the guy and throw him toward another guy like my other call start to bounce himself to hit many armed robbers.

One throws a grenade toward me as it exploded but I ignored it and headbutt him as 2 other shot flamethrower at me but my durability and heat resistance played their role as I jump toward them with smashing their head together.

My clone approaches me as I kick him with all my strength making him hit a squad of these armed bad guys as he uncurls himself as we see all the arm men have been knocked out.

"Sweet. Victory for us once more." We then high five.

.....

"Simply to say, your first mission goes well. Keep doing the good work." Mike told me as his car drive away from my penthouse as he and the other agents clean up all the mess I created when I am in my alien form.

"Another great day passes for me," I said as I enter my living place to have a relaxing time for myself.

Cleaning myself and making omelette rice for myself, I open the television which allows the brutality action of me when I am Rath as all the news commented various things like about my action.

Some express their disgusts seeing my way of handling the criminals, some agree and even some start to express their safety when I am near them.

"Whatever. In the end, I rescued the day." I mutter and finish eating my omelette rice.

I then go toward my sink and wash the plate. Finish doing that, I grab a glass that is filled with fresh orange, I gulp it down in seconds as I release a burp from my mouth.

The next thing I do is laid myself on my sofa while looking at the Ultimatrix as I had a mischievous idea.

Twisting the face of the watch, it popped up as it shows me Heatblast as I spin through many alien as I find the alien I wanted.

"Well, at least my starting alien has this guy." I pressed it down softly as my body shrink smaller with my skin turn grey with my attire now in green and black stripes with the Ultimatrix symbol is on my chest.

"Grey Matter!" I announce as my brain now is comprehending something as many ideas, plans and thought formed in my head as a devilish smirk appears on my face as my hand approaches the Ultimatrix.

...

AVENGERS TOWER, a place where the mightiest Heroes of the Earth, Avengers reside a little number of them now are listening to the stories of Miles who just has his wounded get healed after what Rath did to him.

"So basically, 2 humanoid animal looking alien pretty much kick your ass these past days." Luke Cage, Powerman, a black man whose body is comparable to Dwayne Johnson but bulletproof simplified of what Miles told him.

"Hey! They did not kick my ass badly okay?" Miles tell him.

"From your stories, they do." Danny Rand, Iron Fist said.

"But still, didn't you find guys this weird?" Kaine, Scarlet Spider suddenly said.

"What is weird?" Amadeus Cho voiced out.

"These creatures, they popped almost the same time," Jessica said as they all start to pay attention to their pictures.

"The symbol on their chest." Sam Wilson, Red Falcon mutters.

"They are the same," Hawkeye added as Jarvis start to shows each picture.

"And look here, this alien tap the symbol to change into another creature." The Thing voiced out as he and his team, Fantastic Four is at that place since Reed has something to discuss with Tony Stark.

"A shapeshifter perhaps?" Invisible Woman, or her name, Sue Storm said.

"Or a Skrull. I bet it is one of them." Johnny Storm said while munching some chips.

Then, they see the video of Rath's fight against Miles who is having his time beating the junior spiderling.

"Kid. You and I need to spar or you will get your butt kick again by this weretiger." Wolverine said making Miles just nod his head while mentally groaning in his head knowing how painful will it be to spar with Logan.

Then they see how Rath seems to say something to Miles which make him flinch before knocking him out with a headbutt.

"At that time, you flinch, why?" Silk who has that question in her head asks Miles who bit his lip hearing it.

"H-he just says about something that makes me feel surprised," Miles answered.

"And what is that something Miles?" Kitty asks Miles who stares at all the occupants.

"H-he said how I am not good like Peter Parker does when he is the Spider-man." Miles mutter as every person in the room frown, look down in shame and did not care upon hearing that.

"I see," Kaine said as he now adopts a blank expression as he slowly walk out with some of them following his footsteps.

For whoever follows him know what they have done to Peter Parker, the guy they have abandoned and sinned after they realised the truth.
