Peter and May sat side by side in the spider cave, surrounded by the glow of holographic displays and the hum of high-tech equipment.

The weight of their mission and the memory of the fallen Peter Parker hung in the air, but they found solace in their shared determination.

The holographic image of Wilson Fisk loomed before them, his face frozen in a permanent scowl.

Peter's eyes scanned the information displayed on the computer screen, absorbing every detail. "Alchemax... a research company," he murmured, his voice filled with curiosity. "Based in Hudson Valley, New York. Looks like they're working on some top-secret project for Fisk."

May nodded, her brows furrowing with concern. "But beyond that, we don't have much information about Alchemax or its employees."

Peter glanced at May, his voice filled with conviction. "May, I think it's time we pay a visit to Alchemax. We need to find out what they're hiding and how it connects to the Kingpin. It might lead us to the answers we're looking for."

Of course, he already knew all of these answers as he saw the movie, but he couldn't exactly say that.

May looked torn, her eyes flickering with a mix of curiosity and concern. "Peter, I want to help, but I don't want to get in your way. I'm not the hero my Peter was."

Peter turned to her, his eyes filled with warmth and understanding. "Aunt May, you're family. Even in a parallel universe. And family sticks together, especially in times like these. Besides, you know this world better than I do. Your knowledge could be invaluable."

Although that's partially true, Peter could easily maneuver around this universe on his own.

The real reason why he's offering her this chance is simple. Her son just died.

May just lost the only living relative left and it was someone she raised since he was a child, so Peter knew, at the very least, that she wanted to be involved in finding his killer and bringing him up justice.

Looking at her for a moment, Peter wondered. 'Maybe she would want revenge?' He thought.

And if she wanted that, then he would happily facilitate it for her.

After all, what's family for if not to exact bloody vengeance on your enemies?

A mixture of emotions played across May's face. She looked down for a moment, contemplating her options.

Finally, May looked up and nodded. "Alright, Peter. If you think I can be of help, then I'll go with you. I want to find out who..." Yet again, she couldn't finish that sentence. '...who killed my Peter.'

Peter smiled warmly as he pulled her into a hug. "Don't worry, we'll find them..."

They stood up from the computer station and made their way back to the elevator. As they stepped inside, the doors closed, enveloping them in darkness. The elevator ascended with a low hum, taking them back up to the surface.

As the doors opened once again, they stepped out of the familiar backyard shed. The evening breeze whispered through the trees, carrying a sense of anticipation.

Peter's smirk widened as he used his expertise in magic to manipulate the situation.

As his hand clasped around Spider-Pig's, a subtle surge of energy flowed through his fingertips, channeling his mystical abilities into the interaction.

Unbeknownst to Spider-Pig, Peter's touch triggered a carefully woven spell. In an instant, the small electric device concealed in Spider-Pig's hand was flipped, reversed, and its purpose redirected.

The shocking prank was about to take an unexpected turn.

"Nice to meet you too, Spider-Pig," Peter replied, his voice laced with playful amusement.

As their hands connected, a burst of electric energy surged through Spider-Pig. His eyes widened, and a comically exaggerated yelp escaped his snout as visible strands lightning crackled around his body.

"It smells like bacon..." Aunt May commented as she sniffed the air.

"Whoa! Wha... what just happened?" Spider-Pig exclaimed, stars floating around his head as he wobbled on his feet.

Peter couldn't contain his laughter any longer, the sound bubbling forth as he released his grip on Spider-Pig's hand. "Magic." He stated cryptically.

Aunt May joined in on the laughter, her eyes sparkling with mirth. "Well, I must say, that was quite shocking...'

Peter rolled his eyes at May's horrible pun. 'Even in this universe her jokes are cringe...'

Spider-Pig took a moment to compose himself, adjusting his Spider-Man mask, he grinned up at Peter and May.

"Sorry about that, folks. Sometimes I forget that I'm not the only one with tricks up my sleeve," Spider-Pig chuckled, his voice a jovial blend of enthusiasm and cartoonish charm.

Peter and May exchanged amused glances before Peter spoke up, curiosity evident in his voice. "So, Spider-Pig, you're from a cartoon universe, right? Like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck?"

Spider-Pig nodded, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "You got it, buddy! I hail from a surreal and wacky realm. Picture a world where everything's a little bit zanier, a little more exaggerated, and a whole lot more fun! We've got talking animals, whimsical gags, and villains with wild and wacky schemes."

May listened attentively, her curiosity piqued. "It sounds... different, to say the least. How did you end up here?"

Spider-Pig scratched his chin, the cartoonish motion accentuating his playful demeanor. "Well, Aunt May, I was just doing my usual hero gig back in my dimension when all of a sudden, a swirling vortex whisked me away. Next thing I know, I'm crash-landing here."

Peter nodded as his words matched his knowledge from the Spider-Verse movie. "Looks like the multiverse is full of surprises, huh? But we're glad you're here, Spider-Pig. We could use some backup, if you're up for it?"

Spider-Pig beamed, a cartoon mallet appearing in his hands. "That's what I'm here for, my web-slinging compadre! I may bring the laughs, but I pack a mean punch too."

May smiled warmly, her eyes filled with appreciation. "Thank you, Spider-Pig. We appreciate your willingness to help. You know, my Peter... the one from this universe... he... he passed away. It means a lot to have someone like you helping out."

Spider-Pig's expression softened, his eyes conveying a mixture of sympathy and understanding. "I'm sorry to hear that, Aunt May. Losing a hero like him must be tough. But don't you worry, we're going to find out who did this and make sure justice is served."

Peter placed a comforting hand on May's shoulder, offering her silent support. "Alright, let's head out. It's almost morning..." He said as the sky slowly began to brighten.

May nodded, her determination renewed. "Right, let's not waste any more time then. We've got answers to find and justice to serve..." Her eyes narrowed dangerously.
