3 The Timeline

As Aunt May left the room, I stood and walked toward the window. As I looked out the window, I saw that the outside world looked normal and bustling as it did in my world. The people walking on the streets talking, laughing, and going on with their daily lives have no fucking idea what will happen to them in the upcoming years.

I wouldn't have believed it if I was told that this could ever happen and even if it did, I would still think that I am in a dream. But right now I was starting to believe everything only because I felt I have lived the life of Jared Parker. I have lived through the turmoil Jared felt of suddenly losing his parents...of him making the decision never to cry again and never to show his weak side to anyone.

I didn't have younger siblings in my previous life but how much trouble could they even be to handle? As I was contemplating how to do things further and how I should start acting like the original Jared to avoid any kind of suspicion, I heard the sound of the door closing in the hall and then some.

"Aunt May...I am home."

"Oh Good...I just told Jared that you would be coming."

"How is he by the way? I don't remember him ever getting this sick."

"Why don't you ask him yourself? He is in his room."

As I heard that, I heard the hallway floor creak and then a knock on the door "You alive?"

'Heh...only if he knew that his brother is really dead' I thought and quickly sat back on the bed "Yeah...get in"

As the door opened, Peter walked into the room. I wasn't surprised to see a younger Tom Holland walk in. Yes, I know his real name...he is famous enough.

"You really are short." I blurted out as I saw him walk toward the bed.

"What?" he said as he looked up from his phone. He shoved it in his pocket and put down his backpack on the ground.

He looked at me but it had a little bit of an awkwardness in his gaze. 'Did he recognize me?' I thought but then I realized that the brothers hadn't spent much time together in the past few years.

"Don't listen to anything Aunt May says. My fever is already gone and I feel just fine." I said trying to just get to the point to which Peter nodded and said "Aunt May's chicken soup will have you back on your feet in no time." Peter hesitated for a few seconds after that and said "Jared there is something I want to talk to you about."

"Sure what is it?" I asked. 'Is he starting to feel funny in certain places at this late age? Is he that much of a nerd?' I thought but then me and Peter heard Aunt May shout all the way from the Kitchen.

"Get in here both of you. The soup's ready."

Peter looked at me and said "It's actually nothing important. Let's go" and we both left the room and entered the kitchen. On the way I saw a few photos of me along with Peter and Aunt May but most were too old. And then a picture of me along with my Parents and Peter in Mary Parker or mother's arms.

As I entered the Kitchen I saw that there was a small dining table in the middle and a TV on the wall.

Aunt May turned around with two soup bowls in her hand and said "Peter turn on the Tv. I didn't have the time to watch the news since afternoon." Peter turned on the tv and while switching the news channel he sat into one of the chairs.

I was way more hungry right now compared to my curiosity of this world so I just focused my full attention on the hot chicken soup in front of me. As I was drinking it, a piece of news fell on my ears.

'AFTER THE DEATH OF IVAN VANKO, THE FBI HAS TURNED THEIR ATTENTION TO JUSTIN HAMMER AND HAMMER INDUSTRIES. THERE IS STILL SOME OPPOSITION TO TONY STARK'S HEROISM DUE TO THE TECHNOLOGY HE HOLDS BUT THE SUPPORT IRON MAN HAS RECEIVED IS IMMENSE.'

As I heard this, I looked up at the tv and saw Justin Hammer walking with his legal team evading the cameras of Paparazzi and the questions asked by reporters. On the other side of the screen was the photo of Tony Stark in his Iron Man suit.

"He is so handsome" Aunt May said staring at Tony Stark's face while Peter blurted "That suit looks so cool"

I glanced at them both being entranced by the same man and turned my focus back at the soup. It was really good...Peter wasn't lying when he said that the soup would have me back on my feet.

But then I realized something...Ivan Vanko is dead...that means the end of Iron Man 2 plot...I live in Queens. Oh Fuck...the next big thing according to the MCU timeline is the Avengers. And this means the Chituari army will invade New York.

I looked at Aunt May and asked "Aunt May how far is the Stark Tower from here?"

Aunt May and Peter both looked back at me.

"I think maybe close to an hour. But why do you want to go there?" Aunt May asked.

"Nothing much just wanted to see what this genius is building." I replied.

"Jared I don't think it would be of any use going there now. As far as I have read the recent posts made on Reddit, the tower is far from being ready and it will take at least 8 months to get it ready for Tony Stark to live there." Peter said excitedly. I didn't want to hear more of that nerdy stuff so I just nodded with a smile. This was enough of an acknowledgment for Peter because his head turned back to the Tv.

This means that some of the Chituari army has a chance of getting here and since I am already existing in this world, the chances of the MCU events changing are high. Every breath I take in this universe is having changes and due to the butterfly effect, these small changes can lead to bigger ones faster than I know.

'Holy Shit...am I a nerd too?' I thought but decided to stop overthinking and actually do something.

I finished the soup and said "Aunt May...I am going out for a while..will be back by dinner." I went back to my room, changed my room, and took my phone which was the ancient iPhone 4s.

As I left the house, I decided to just roam around the neighborhood for a while and become familiar with the place. I did pass by a few people who recognized me and their names and Jared's opinion about them would also quickly flash in my mind as I see their faces.

'There is not much to see here. Didn't Aunt May say something about going to the beach? Maybe I should go there.' Using the maps app I found my way to the beach. As I reached there, I saw a few families having a little picnic there while a bunch of teenagers playing volleyball.

I looked at everyone's of their faces but none of them stood out as any of Jared's acquaintances. Due to the hot weather, I decided to go and dip my legs in the water as well. I rolled up my tracks and headed toward the water. A few kids were playing with their parents in the water. Ignoring all the noise of those broken condoms, I dipped my legs into the water and instantly felt a little different about it. I immediately stepped back and looked down thinking that maybe I stepped on something but there was nothing like that.

I stepped back in and got the same feeling. Seeing that nothing happened, I decided to ignore the feeling and took a few more steps in the water. The feeling increased but instead of making me awkward or uncomfortable, it felt more soothing. I walked a few more steps in the water and now the water had reached knee length.

As I was about to feel the same sensation again, I saw a wave coming at me. The wave wasn't big or anything but it would be enough to wet my tracks. Walking from here to the house on a wet track was going to be embarrassing.

"Fuck man...can't you go from the side without disturbing the water around me?" I muttered as I was going to take a step back in the water. But before I could do that, the wave in front of me split and went from both my sides leaving the water around me unmoved.

I couldn't help but touch the water around my feet and noticed that it was extremely stable as if I am standing in a swimming pool without moving for the past few minutes.

'HOLY SHIT' I screamed in my mind.
