Whilst Peter was beating the sh*t out of Galactus, Ben awoke in the dim confines of the Spider-Society's prison. Confusion clouded his senses until the memories of his ill-fated infiltration flooded back, a futile attempt to outwit the Spider-People that led him to this chilling cell.
'Wait! Wasn't he here" Ben recalled seeing someone in particular before passing out
Turning his head, Ben's eyes widened as he saw a familiar elderly man in a tattered Spider-Suit. He sat on the floor, his back against the wall as he flipped through an old book.
Recognition dawned on Ben's face, and he muttered, "Uncle Ben? I-Is that really you?" Hope and disbelief mingled in his voice. After all, he vividly remembers the death of his Uncle Ben, so seeing him again is both a heartbreaking and warming experience.
The old man, seemingly irritated by the address, retorted sharply, "Stop calling me that. I'm not your Uncle... We are not related" He emphasized, making it very clear.
Ben frowned, realizing that this Uncle Ben wasn't as kind and welcoming as the one he remembers.
As Ben contemplated the strange circumstances, a sudden beeping noise echoed through the prison. Every cell door swung open, and a robotic voice announced a one-hour cafeteria break.
Silently, Uncle Ben rose to his feet, walking out of the cell, though he paused for a moment and reluctantly gave Ben a quick warning. "Keep quiet and avoid provoking anyone, especially the more spidery-looking inmates. Unless, of course, you're okay with becoming monster food." He said before walking off.

Rising out of bed, Ben rushed to follow his roommate, though he froze as soon as he stepped out, observing the peculiar procession of spider-people and creatures. Although many of the Spider-People seemed normal, the creatures, like the giant spider and the humanoid Spider-Man sent shivers down his spine.
[Insert picture of a Giant Hairy Spider-Man here] (A/N: Man-Spider might work, but I'm thinking something more spider-like than him. Less humanoid, I mean.)
Especially the giant spider, which evoked a mixture of fear and disgust within him. "What the hell is this place" He muttered, but before he could think too much, he noticed Uncle Ben getting further and further away from him. "Hey! Wait up!"
Following Uncle Ben's brisk pace, the two of them arrived at the cafeteria, Ben's eyes widened at the surreal sight of various spider-people enjoying their meals. Even the more monstrous looking inmates had their own area and food to eat, which was hard to look at to say the least.
Ben hesitated, unsure of how to navigate this bizarre gathering. Uncle Ben, on the other hand, already grabbed his food and sat alone at a corner table, completely ignoring everyone around him, including his new roommate.
With nowhere else to go, Ben didn't even bother grabbing any food and followed after his cellmate, causing Uncle Ben to grumble, "If you're going to sit here, I expect you to keep quiet and leave me alone. Don't attract any unnecessary attention either..."
Ben didn't reply immediately, as he was too busy looking around the cafeteria, feeling completely out of place.
"Help!" Ben's voice snapped the elder Spider-Man out of his haunting recollections.
Acting swiftly, Uncle Ben rushed forward, his aged muscles fueled by a surge of determination. With impeccable timing, he delivered a powerful kick, sending the giant spider reeling away from Ben, narrowly preventing a gruesome fate.
Without a moment's hesitation, Uncle Ben pressed on, closing the gap between him and the monstrous arachnid. In a display of remarkable agility and strength, he executed an uppercut, sending the creature up into the air.
Seizing the opportunity, he kicked off the ground, following after the spider before grabbing his head mid-air, and twisting it with a swift, forceful motion.
A sickening crunch echoed through the narrow corridor as the spiders head was maliciously spun. The spider's body screeched and flailed, its limbs thrashing in a chaotic dance. Yet, Uncle Ben's relentless assault continued, undeterred by the creature's futile resistance.
With a quick tug, the spider's head was torn from its body, landing on the floor with a visceral thud. The lifeless body convulsed for a few moments, its death throes dissipating as the hallway fell silent.
Uncle Ben peered down at the defeated creature, a stoic expression masking the complexity of emotions buried beneath. ""
Landing beside Ben, the older Spider-Man clapped his hands together, cleaning off any blood or hair. "Ugh Disgusting"
"Uhh Thanks for saving me" Ben reluctantly thanked his Uncles lookalike, slightly shocked by what he just witnessed. 'He may be an a*shole, but he's still got some Uncle Ben left in him'
As the older Spider-Man turned his gaze toward Ben, a noticeable frown lingered on his weathered face. 'He really does look just like him'
Unable to contain his impatience, Peter retrieved his six rings, each housing a glimmering infinity stone. With deliberate precision, he slid them onto his fingers, one by one, the power of the universe converging at his fingertips.
As he snapped his fingers, an instantaneous surge of energy enveloped both him and the fallen Galactus, mending their battered bodies to pristine condition. If anyone were to witness them now, they would never guess the intensity of the battle that had just unfolded.
Seconds later, Galactus stirred, groggily regaining consciousness, his once-shattered armor now seamlessly restored. Confusion clouded his eyes as he surveyed the area. However, his gaze soon landed on Peter, whose victorious smirk held a smug air to it.
"I... I lost..." Galactus muttered, disbelief coloring his words.
Peter's smirk widened, a victorious glint in his eyes. "Yup, and now it's time to pay up."
Galactus felt a chill down his spine, a realization settling in. It was as if he had made a deal with the devil himself, and now the time has come to pay his dues
