Chương 183: Trick 182: Spider-Baby Appears!
As Ace was talking, Peter's friends; MJ and Ned walked in with Peter who then left again after introducing Ace.
Not only that but 2 more people appeared in the cages.
Ace looked at them, smiling "Hello! Welcome to our Universe…" he looked over at a black man and a man made of sand, adding "I assume you two know my two friends here." The black man said "Yeah! The Lizard dude, Dr Curt Connors." the Sand man said "Doc Ock."
Octavius and Connors looked over as Ace explained "The Sand guy is from your Universe, Doctor Octavius. This Black fellow is from yours, Doctor Connors." Connors asked "Max? Is that you? Last time I saw you, you had a gap in your teeth and a comb-over."
Max frowned and said "I'm not the one who's a lizard right now."
Ace waved his hands and smiled, saying "Please, sit down. My associate is working on sending you all back. For now, if you could introduce yourselves, explain how you received your powers, where you worked, etc."
Max pointed at the coffee and shouted "Oh shit! This magic or sum?!" The sand man asked "Who are you?" Ace smiled "Ace, a Magician. Now if you'd please…" before he could continue, MJ ran over with a phone saying "Peter wants to talk to you."
Ace turned to her and sighed, "What does he want now…" before taking the phone from her, saying "City Morgue." Peter said "Mr. Wizard Sir, are those guys there?" Ace nodded, "Yeah, they're here. There's a few other ones, could be more trickling through unless Strange contained the spell that dragged them here… By my count there is 4 left, though there could be more hiding."
He looked around and added, "I can sense different Inter-Universal energy in 4 locations, however 3 of them are in the same place the other is far off." Max pointed at Ace, asking "Did he just say Inter-Universal energy?!"
Octavius sipped on a tea, replying "Get used to it…" Ned looked around asking "So you're all from different places? Were you born as Sand? Like Sentient Sand?" The Sand guy ignored him and Ace said "Yeah, yeah, okay… Alright, mhm… Yes. Enough, kid. I GET IT!"
Ace shouted at the phone, "This is your fault, kid! Damn what do you mean 'I can't do this alone'!? You've been to space fighting aliens and you can't handle a few Multiversal travelers that were dragged here unwillingly!? Are you Spider-MAN or Spider-BABY?! Figure it out!" before hanging up.
He cursed, "Stupid kid…" before tossing the phone to MJ, muttering "Maybe we can trade Spidermen…" MJ looked at him warily and backed away slowly "Okay… Crazy Wizard, got it…"
Ace rolled his eyes and turned back to the 4 people, saying "How about it? Wanna trade?" they ignored him and he rolled his eyes again, adding "Whatever, tough crowd. Names and Occupations, please."
Time passed and a few hours went by as Ace took down Max Dillon and Flint Marko's information, recording it and sending his findings to Steve. He also told them about his own Universe to pass the time.
Turns out, Max and Flint knew Harry Osborn, but Harry Osborn died in Sand Man's universe. In addition, in Max's universe, Harry Osborn was alive and well. But Sand man had more to say.
Ace received profiles and names of some other people, Alexei Sytsevich or the Rhino as he was called, Adrian Toomes or the Vulture, MacDonald Gargan or the Scorpion, and Eddie Brock or Venom.
Ace had a strange look, there was Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Scorpion, Lizard, and Rhino? All Villains of Spiderman? Really strange…
Suddenly, Peter came back with an old guy.
The Old man was stunned and walked over, asking "Octavius?" everyone looked at him and Octavius said in shock "Osborn?!" Ace looked over and raised a brow, asking "Norman Osborn?"
Norman looked at Ace, asking "Hello, who are you?" Ace smiled "Ace, Wizard. How are you?" Norman replied honestly, "Confused…" Ace nodded and said "I bet! Please have a seat." as Norman was teleported into a cell, sitting down with the same amenities as the rest.
Max laid on the chair sideways with a plate of cookies on his chest, laughing "What's up, old man? What universe are you from?" Norman looked around in confusion asking "Universe? Is that why Oscorp doesn't exist here?"
Octavius snorted "You've realized it now? You're lucky, you're supposed to be dead." Norman was shocked and asked "What?!" Ace nodded and explained "Supposedly, you're dead in your universe. Very curious."
Peter walked over and asked "Mr Wizard Sir, what are we gonna do now?" Ace shrugged and Norman shouted "That's impossible! I'm not dead-" before frowning in thought.
Flint suddenly spoke "Actually, you're both dead." Everyone looked at him as he continued "Green Goblin, impaled on the glider he flew around on…" he turned to Octavius, adding "And you, Doc Ock, drowned in the river along with your machine. Both fighting Spiderman."
Octavius shouted "That's nonsense! Spider-Man was trying to stop my fusion reactor, so I stopped him." he grabbed the air and grit his teeth, "I had him by the throat, and then I…" he paused and a confused look appeared on his face as he muttered "And then I was here…"
Ace frowned and Max laughed, sitting up as he dusted his hands of crumbs, "Ah, please! Let me tell you somethin'! I was whuppin' Spider-Man's ass. He'll tell you. And then he caused an overload." as he gestured with a smirk, "I was stuck in the grid, absorbing data. I was about to turn into Pure Energy, and then… and then I…"
He blinked and raised his brows, saying "Oh shit. I was about to die."
Connors looked over and asked nervously "Max, do you know? Do I die?"
Ace frowned and said "Please, calm down. You're alive now… however…" Octavius said angrily "However, when we return we'll perish?!" Ace held his hand out, saying "Please. I think I have an explanation for these events. You see, the Mutltiverse doesn't exist all at the same time. What I mean is- every universe may or may not be at different points in time. You could end up in the future or past or on the same day. Therefore I believe for you all to be here at the same time, you're all from different Universes…"
He frowned and added, "However the others you recognize are from a very similar universe to yourself. Like for example, there's a me that has experienced this all already far off in the future or a me from the past that has yet to experience this. You're all picked from our point in time which happens to coincide with all your deaths."
Octavius snorted "You're talking about an impossibly miniscule possibility! What you described is much less likely to occur than getting hit by 6 Meteorites and struck by lightning while falling into a sinkhole during an earthquake at the same time. The odds of such a thing occurring are astronomical, so tiny to the point it wouldn't be an accident or coincidence."
Ace shrugged and replied "And yet it happened, so you tell me. Who is pulling the strings, because I'm not powerful enough to cross the Multiverse myself. As for pulling people at specific points in time before they die all at the same time, there's only a few people I know who could do this and they wouldn't care about any of you or even life for that matter."
Octavius frowned and Connors asked "There's such a thing?" Peter looked at Ace and asked in shock "People can do that?!" Ace sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, explaining "The 'people' who can do this… let's forget about them for a minute. They're not important, what you should know is they can eradicate Galaxies with a wave of their hand."
Peter was stunned and Octavius laughed "What a farce!" Ace looked at him and grinned "Doctor Octavius, you were pulled into a different universe and you refuse to believe such power exists? Think about this for a moment, how did multiple Universes come to be? Why is there more than one? How could there be more than one? If there is more than one, someone must've created another, and if they created another then they should be watching it, right?"
Octavius paused and frowned, "There is no God, you are deluding yourself." Ace rolled his eyes and retorted "God is a Title of Power, not a level of being." Octavius opened his mouth and froze before his eyes widened slightly, muttering "Oh god…"
Ace turned to Norman, smiling "At any rate, Mr Osborn, if you could answer a few questions…"
