Before leaving the council room, Peter and everyone decided that the Avengers weren't ready to deal with someone of Hulk's caliber.

He might as well be the living personification of rage-given form in this universe, so people like Sabertooth, Nightcrawler, Wolverine, and Mystique would never stand a chance.

Sorry, but it's just the truth.

Even if they were to fight well in the beginning, the Hulk will only grow stronger with time. Anger and rage fuel his strength constantly after all.

The anger from a drawn-out fight would be more than enough for the Hulk to beat them, which is why Peter and everyone else decided that the Avengers Council and a select few others will be the only people involved in this mission.

The Avenger's first mission, that is.

Iron Man, Magneto, Professor X, Storm, Nightcrawler, and last but certainly not least, Spider-Man.

Obviously, Fury wouldn't be anywhere near this. He may be an amazing spy or secret agent, but he would have even less of a chance than the Avengers they're leaving out of the mission.

Storm was an easy pick for the team as she's an Omega-level meta-human and could simply attack from a distance using her flight ability and lightning.

Nightcrawler isn't nearly strong enough to deal with the Hulk, but he has a very valuable ability, teleportation. He won't get involved with any of the fighting, should it ever come to that, and simply use his teleportation to assist the team when needed.

The rest were chosen because they're strong enough to deal with this. It was that simple.

Well, all except for Tony.

Most of the council didn't think that Tony's suit would hold up against the Hulk, but he managed to convince everyone that he had something planned for this. After all, Tony knew about the Hulk for a while now, so he has had time to cook something up for the green giant.

Tony refused to say anything about it when they asked, but Peter thought it was probably the big Hulkbuster suit. Though, he didn't know that for sure.

The world has changed with his influence so Peter try's not to expect anything anymore. Not to mention the inclusion of the X-men, which didn't even exist in the MCU.

Peter just has to be prepared for anything and remain watchful for things that may stay the same. He hoped that a lot would stay the same but rarely is anyone that lucky.

After the game plan was formulated and the council meeting was finished, Peter returned home to spend some time with his Aunt May before heading out that night to patrol the streets.

His crime-fighting schedule has lessened greatly due to the cell of Hand ninja in the city, but Peter still likes to get out of the house for a few times a week and swing around saving people.

A few days after Peter gave Scythe the flash drive, he was messaged with the exact location of Bruce Banner.

He was already in Virginia and would soon arrive at Culver University, where Betty Ross works as a scientist and Professor.

'Damn, the guy moves fast...' Peter thought.

Barely an hour after Peter was informed of this by the Hand, Natasha texted everyone about the same exact thing.

Natasha- He's here.

-Culver Campus, Virginia-

Outside of a pizza shop on the outskirts of campus, an elderly man waved off a group of children as he begins to close up for the night. As he's locking up, a disheveled man appears in his view scaring him half to death.

"W-what?" He jumps and freezes as a look of recognition forms on his face. "Bruce?"

"Stan, I give you my word, whatever you've heard about me, it's not true." Banner says as he holds his hands up on the other side of the glass door.

"Oh, I know. I always knew. I mean, you and Betty used to live up above me. Have you seen her?" Stan says as he opens the door and pulls Bruce inside, hoping that no one saw him.

"No. She doesn't know that I'm here. She's with somebody?" Banner asks as the old man locks the door and puts down the blinds one by one.

"Yeah, he's a head shrink." Stan replies.

"I see..." Bruce mutters dejectedly. "Hopefully she's happy."

"What can I do to help?" The man asks, ready to help in any way he can.

"I could use a bed for a few nights." Banner answers hopefully, eager to sleep in a nice warm bed.

"You can have your old apartment upstairs." Stan agrees easily.

"That'd be great. Thank you."

Sadly, none of the old man's work with the blinds mattered, as Banner has been followed by two separate groups for a while now.

Neither knew the other was there, but both were there on orders from the same person, Peter.
