Just what the hell was that portal? Even with my body I was feeling disoriented.

I shook my head so as to gain my bearings and then searched for Emma who was fortunately right next to me.

“Emma, you alright!” I asked Emma who was clearly a lot more disoriented compared to me.

“Give me a minute!” Emma replied as she hugged her head with her hands and tried to focus.

While Emma slowly gained her bearings, I focused on my surroundings. It was clearly some sort of an alley.

“What the hell just happened?” Emma asked once she finally got her bearings.

“Don't know? Some kind of portal suddenly appeared and sucked us in. I was able to resist but jumped in after seeing that you had been sucked by that portal.” I answered.

“Thanks, Peter!” Emma thanked me for jumping after her.

“You don't need to thank me, Emma. There was no way I could have left you in an unknown place alone.” I replied.

“Shall we check what is outside?” Emma said as she stood up and clasped my hand. Both of us then steeled ourselves and moved towards the exit of the alley.

“Huh! It's still Paris.” I said upon seeing the city which was clearly Paris but seemed to be a little bit more advanced.

“Peter, look at this!” Emma suddenly pointed me towards a news billboard. What was written on that billboard literally shocked me.

“Peter Parker aka Spider-Man, Murderer or Hero?”

The news accused Peter Parker aka Spider-Man as the murderer of someone named Mysterio.

“Well, we are clearly not in our world anymore.” I said as I realised that what had happened with Gwen had now happened to both of us.

**************************************

“This is clearly unbelievable. We are in a parallel world.” Emma said as both of us sat on a bench in a nearby park. After all, the realisation that we were in a different dimension was quite overwhelming.

“So, what shall we do now?” I asked Emma after a few minutes.

“I think that we should get information about this world first. Especially on this world’s Peter Parker. He will definitely help us if he is anything like you.” Emma suggested after some serious thinking.

“Let's see what can be find about this world’s Peter Parker.” I said as I took out my phone.

As I activated it, I could see that my accounts were not syncing with the web, yet another proof that this was not our world. Fortunately, I could still do web search.

“What the hell is going on in this world?” I blurted out as I saw the information I found.

“Spider-Man first appeared on Tony Stark's side in the Avengers Civil War. He later participated in the battle against Thanos but died like the half of the world in the Blip!

Peter Parker returned 5 years later like everyone else and continued as Spider-Man. It is rumoured that he is the successor of Tony Stark after his death.

He is currently in a controversy where he killed a so called dimensional traveler and Hero named Mysterio. However, this story is said to be false by SHIELD and they say that Mysterio aka Quinten Beck wa s actually just a fraud who was once rejected by Tony Stark.”

“This is a lot of information to take in especially when most of it is so unbelievable.” Emma said as we digested the information.

“Let's start with the most unbelievable event, the Blip.” I said as I searched about it.

“Is this even possible? A purple humanoid alien called Thanos, the Mad Titan went on a crusade throughout the universe to gather extremely powerful stones called Infinity Stones which gave him enough power to kill half of the entire universe. And that idiot did it because he believed that there are not enough resources for the entire population. As such, he believed that he had to kill half of the entire universe’s population to save the universe.”

I think that I would go mad with this much unbelievable information. There were apparently six Infinity Stones in this world which made someone literally godlike if he gathered them all. And some idiotic alien used it to kill half of the entire universe and even destroyed the Infinity Stones so that no one could reverse it.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

“This whole story seems impossible but we have already seen the two of them, Peter. The Tessaract and the Loki's staff, they contained the Space Stone and the Mind Stone respectively.” Emma said as she linked the Tessaract and the Loki's staff with the information available about the Infinity Stones.

“Yeah! There were two Infinity Stones on our Earth at that time. That must be the reason why Thanos sent such a massive Chitauri army. He wanted the Space Stone in the Tessaract along with the Mind Stone he had sent with Loki at any cost.”

“Looks like this is the alien telekinetic who led the Chitauri army.” Emma said as she pointed at one of Thanos' subordinates.

Ebony Maw, an extremely powerful alien telekinetic who had arrived on this Earth on the behalf of Thanos to obtain the Time Stone from Dr. Strange, this world’s Spider Supreme.

“Speaking of which, I didn't know that Kamar Taj actually has an Infinity Stone.” Emma said as she read why Ebony Maw had attacked.

“It is one of the biggest secrets of Kamar Taj. Even I know about this fact only because Ancient One had to check something related to me because of Spider Supreme's intervention in our world.” I replied.

“But what is this about the Blip being reversed?” I search and my mind was blown once again.

“Tony Stark discovered time travel! And the Avengers recovered the already destroyed Infinity Stones with the help of time travel allowing them to reverse the Blip.

But the Thanos from the past learnt of this operation and stole a time travel device. He then came to the present by time travelling with his entire army. There was a fierce battle which ended when Tony Stark used the Infinity Stones to kill Thanos and his army which also lead to his death.”

“This world is getting weirder and weirder the more I try to find about it.” I said as I rubbed my head, a little overwhelmed from this massive and unbelievable information's overload.

“I believe that we should research everything that is available on the web. Even if it is a parallel world, the information can still prove useful.” Emma said as she took out her own phone and started searching on the web.

After an hour……

“So, what have you found, Emma?” I asked once I completed searching everything I could find on the web.

“I think we should start from the beginning. There was also a Battle of New York in this world, albeit much less intense when compared to ours. But what shocked me the most was that there are no mutants in this world.” Emma said, revealing the major difference between our worlds.

“Indeed, there are none. Whatever superhumans I found have obtained their powers from other sources.” I nodded in affirmation.

“Moving on, we have the next major event. HYDRA tried to take over SHIELD using the Project Insight through which they were going to destroy the Avengers as well as anyone who stood in their way.

Fortunately, Captain America and Agent Natasha stopped their plan. However, they had to publicly release SHIELD’s secret files to reveal the existence of HYDRA. Something which would have great ramifications in the Avengers Civil War.”

“Since we already know about HYDRA spies in our world thanks to Mystique, it would not be hard to convince SHIELD to take action against them. As this world is quite similar to our own, it is likely that what HYDRA’s spies and their plan would likely be similar in our own world. As such, we should download all the information about the HYDRA. It will definitely prove useful.”

I said, planning how the information from this world could be used in our own. After all, there was no way I was going to let HYDRA take over SHIELD when I already knew about their plan.

“The next major event is that Tony Stark of this world created a super advanced AI named Ultron which actually turned against him. The subjugation of Ultron had led to a lot of damage to both life and property. Something which would be used again the Avengers in an attempt to put them under government control.” Emma continued.

“It would be easy to convince Mr. Stark do not create Ultron but we definitely can't let the Avengers Civil War happen. The Avengers can't turn against each other especially with Thanos at our door.” I said, thinking already how to prevent something like the Avengers Civil War from happening.

“The last major event after the Avengers Civil War was Thanos’ assault which we have already searched for before. What do you think should be our next course of plan, Peter?” Emma asked.

“I think that this world’s Spider-Man is actually innocent. He already has quite a track record fighting with the Avengers. Moreover, everything I have found about Mysterio clearly seems to be scripted. The Elementals do not even exist, as per the records of Kamar Taj. Besides, SHIELD has already stated that Mysterio’s death happened during their mission.

As such, it would be beneficial for us to contact this world’s Peter Parker. But I think that it would be better for us to first meet the Sorcerers of Kamar Taj. If anyone has any idea why we appeared in this world, it would be them.”

“Indeed, Kamar Taj should be the first place for us to start.” Emma said, agreeing with my opinion.

“By the way, do you think that we should try to obtain this world’s technology?” Emma asked.

“We should first ascertain how we came to this world. Once everything is clear, I would attempt to obtain this world's technology if an opportunity arrives.” I answered.

“Now, shall we depart?” I asked Emma who merely clasped my hand with a smile.

********************************

“Why has no one come to greet us yet?” I said as both of us stood in the lobby of the New York Sanctum.

The Sanctum Sanctorum’s security depended entirely on magical enchantments but whoever was in charge should have the knowledge of our visit by now.

Thankfully, our wait was not for long as Dr. Strange appeared from the inside of the Sanctum with three others, one of whom I recognised to be this world’s Peter Parker. The others were a girl with black hair and a boy of Asian descent.

“May I ask who you are and why you are here?” Dr. Strange asked politely.

“Doesn't he look a little like you, Peter?” The boy of Asian descent asked this world’s Peter since my illusion spell was still on.

“Greetings, I am Peter Parker.” I said as I removed the illusion spell, revealing my true appearance.
