Standing at a podium in a room filled with cameras and microphones, which were all pointed in his direction by various members of the press, Peter started explaining the latest mission that the Avengers undertook.
"Hello, everyone." Peter says as he waves, his image being broadcast across the world.
Before locking up the Kree that helped spread misinformation for them, Peter had them shut down the replaying message that looped all over Earth. If he didn't, then this whole press conference would be blocked, making the whole thing pointless.
"I'm going to get straight to the point and then leave to deal with other things, so listen up." Peter says as he was too tired to deal with the questions of hungry reporters. "The alien army that was threatening our planet through our TVs and radios has been dealt with. They were in orbit around our planet, waiting to invade. We, the Avengers, acted quickly and launched an attack before they could enter Earth's atmosphere, as that would keep all of you away from the fighting..."
The world was shocked, as most people didn't actually believe in an alien invasion. They thought it was some sort of hoax orchestrated by some hacker or something.
Even hearing the words from Spider-Mans mouth didn't sway many of them, as it was just too outlandish of a tale.
Peter went into a little more detail and explained about the Kree and Ronan the Accuser, though he didn't say much more before walking off stage.
"That's it for now. When we have more information, either I or Tony will call another one of these." Peter says as he waves and walks off. 'I can hear my bed calling for me...'
"Wait!" One of the more loud mouth reporters yells as they step in front of the crowd. "You really expect us to just believe all of this without a single shred of proof?"
This seemed to insight the other reporters and journalists in the crowd, as they all started shouting their own questions.
'I said no questions, didn't I?' Peter thought in annoyance as he sighed and walked back to the podium and glared at the crowd under his mask. "Quiet."
Peter didn't raise his voice, but the annoyed tone along with the dangerous feeling he was radiating at the moment seemed to scare the crowd into silence.
"Tony is currently doing his best to figure out how to fly the Kree ships that we commandeered..." Peter says with complete confidence.

In space.
Sparks go flying as Tony sat in the middle of hundreds of alien wires from the destroyed control panels of the flagship. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
"Hmm, not that one either..." Tony mutters to himself as the lights on the ship suddenly shut down, leaving him in darkness. "That's not good."

"...I'm sure that many of you will see them when we bring them down to Earth. As for other forms of proof, we have many survivors from the battle that are currently detained and undergoing interrogation as we speak. Maybe we'll release some recordings from these interrogations later." Peter says with a shrug, shutting down the doubters for the moment. "Now, I have to get back to the Tower. See yah."
This time, the crowd was silent as Peter walked off stage, leaving them with the idea that Aliens actually may have planned on attacking them.
Watching from the cameras, Natasha and Clint couldn't help but gape at what the Kree said.
"Can an alien even be racist?" Natasha asks with a thoughtful look.
"Probably, but I think he was throwing that insult at all humans, not just well... you know." Clint replies as they go back to watching the monitor.
Seeing that the man before him found his outburst funny, the Kree continues to thrash against his restraints for a moment before finally giving up.
*heavy breathing*
"You think... it's over, don't you?" The Kree says as he catches his breath. "You think... your planet safe?"
"..." Fury doesn't answer and waits for him to explain.
"We were only the first to arrive." The Kree says with a triumphant smile. "When Thanos' army descends on this pitiful planet, you apes wont stand a chance."
"Who's Thanos?" Fury asks but the smug Kree refused to speak any further.

A golden portal opens in the dark Flagship's control room, illuminating the destruction that Tony inflicted on the poor ship.
"What the..." Peter mutters as he steps through.
A few seconds after he stepped through, the lights suddenly flicker back on, lighting up the whole place.
"Yes!" Tony yells as his head pops up from below the floor. "Let there be light!"
"I see that you've trashed the place..." Peter reveals himself as his portal closes behind him.
"Oh, Peter! Where have you been?" Tony uses Peter's real name, as no one else was around.
"I had a press conference to calm the masses and took a quick power nap." Peter reveals as he looks around the destroyed room. "Otherwise I may have snapped upon seeing this mess."
"Well, I have to connect Jarvis somehow..." Tony says with a shrug.
"Right..." Peter says as the speakers in the ship go off.
"jotlhmeH mughwI' ghaH jatlh Hol, qI' Hol, pagh Hoch ghItlh, ghob'e' wa'DIch SoH. vaj 'ej ghItlh 'ay', jatlh 'ay' qI' 'ay' agh' 'ej ghob'e' DaSov. mughmeH Segh Hoch ghob'e'!" A weird angry-sounding alien language plays through the ship's control room.
"Where is that coming from?" Peter asks as Tony looks at the mess around the room.
"I have no idea."
