I slowly backed away, I didn't like the fact I was just a few steps away from landing in another world with no way to get back. A stumble and I would be lost, forever.
"Peter, are you okay?" Reed asked.
"Fine, just...don't want to risk it you know," I gulped, "one wrong move and I'm trapped in another world."
"Relax, Reed said it's fine, you can't accidently walk into another dimension Peter," Johnny waved off his worries.
"Technically I said I blocked the way too that dimension, but one can still receive things from the other side, nothing solid off course, just stary forms of energy," Reed clarified.
"R-right," I gulped.
"Now, let's begin, I'm going to calibrate the machine to detect any energy signatures that travels from the portal, Johnny can you hand me that-"
The alarms blared alive. The entire building went into security mode.
"What's going on?!" I asked.
"The scanner's picked up something coming right for us!" Sue yelled as she went to a monitor and began typing away.
"Wait what?! What's coming at us?!" Johnny asked.
"This," Sue pulled up an image of the New York skyline. I narrowed my eyes at a flew glowing figures flying towards us, suddenly the image zoomed in revealing the lights to be robots dressed similar to everyone's favorite crazy dictator.
"Doom, he's coming," I narrowed my eyes, "oh fuck, he's coming for the portal!"
"Maybe," Reed began typing into the counsel attached to the portal, "I'm trying to shut it down from here but it won't take my clearance code! Sue!"
"On it!" she yelled back as she began hacking into her own servers, "something' wrong it's-shit! He's inside and he's not letting us shut the portal off!"
"Can't we just pull the plug?!" I asked.
"No, it required too much energy to run so I put into a separate energy source that was all digital," Reed cursed himself.
"What can we do?" Ben asked.
"It's simple," Johnny stepped up grinning as he turned on his flames, "we kick his ass!"
"Johnny's right," Sue nodded.
"He is?" Ben and I asked in surprise.
"I am?" Johnny blinked.
"Ben, Peter, Johnny, go outside and hold him off for as long as you can," Reed told us, "we'll try and stop this portal, I'll break it apart with my bare hands if I have too! Go!"
"Right," Ben nodded as he ran out of the lab.
I pulled off my shirt and pants revealing my suit underneath. I took out my mask and placed it on my face, the mask exploded outwards, hugging my face before snapping in place to form a helmet. I slipped on my gauntlets and slammed my fist on my chest pieces activating the suit as black webs crawled down it.
I reached the nearest window and jumped out, throwing a web line out to swing across the streets towards the fast approaching squad of robots.
"Spider!" Johnny flew next to me, "you web them up I'll burn them down!"
"Deal!" I yelled back as we charged into the squad of robots.
I swung up into the air I shot out two compressed web shots that exploded into a ball of webs the moment it hit a Doom Bot.
Johnny then sent out twin blasts of fire burning them. Two down, around 40 go to.
"Terminate with extreme prejudice," came the robotic voice of all the Doom Bots as they began firing at us with green lasers. My spider senses with tingling, I maneuvered out of the way quickly to avoid getting killed, landing on the back on one Doom Bot.
"Heya big guy!" I yelled placing one hand on the back of his head and one on his chest, "bye big guy!" I jerked my fingers forward to activate the repulsors in my palms, blasting two holes into the robot's body.
I jumped off and landed on another one, one by one I destroyed them. Just then two Doom Bots came at from from either side, grabbing me into a their arms before they took me up into the air.
'Shit!' I realised, they were trying to drop me from a large height! Seeing no choice I pressed a palm on the chest of each robot and sent out a repulsor beam strong enough to rip them to shreds.
I ended up free falling back down, but I landed on yet another Doom Bot that then tried to strangle me.
"These things are everywhere!" Johnny yelled and he blasted a another bot away before suddenly one snuck up behind him and blasted him in the back. Johnny's flames disappeared as he fell to the ground.
"Johnny!" I roared. I turned to the Doom Bot and punched him in the chest, ripping out whatever power core it had. I then jumped away and swung down, shooting of web lies between the building's below to create a giant web net.
Johnny landed on it and I quickly followed. I crawled to him and checked his heartbeat, stable, if a little cranky. I turned up, the Doom bots were ignoring us, instead heading straight to the Baxter building.
I didn't want to leave Johnny like this but I had to. I jumped off the web and landed on a roof. I shot out a web line at a robot and pulled him down, smashing him onto the building's roof.
I slowly got up, not in the least bit concerned for any damaged parts. It looked at me and turned away ignoring me. Fucking sassy robot!
It tried to fly away but jumped on it before it could, grabbing it by the head before pulling it as hard as I could. I could hear the groan of mechanical parts trying to stay together before suddenly something gave way and the head came flying off.
I tossed the head to the side and looked up at to see the robot's surrounding the Baxter building's top floors. They all spread themselves equidistantly around the building and then spread their arms out. A green pulse of energy came seeping out of their bodies covering the building in an energy field.
