Back in Ponyville, Twilight had shown Peter her castle where she lives. "This used to be a Library in the shape of a tree, after a battle with a monter named Tirek, it became this big, beautiful castle that I call my new home."
"This thing's giant!" Peter said. "Also what's this about a monster?"
"I have my fair share of enemies, like I said, more than just ponies in this world, and not all other creatures are friendly, though a good portion of them are," Twilight explained.
"Well we both have our enemies, I can't go a day without running into the likes of Green Goblin, Doc Ock or Hydro Man," Peter explained.
"Life of a Superhero I'm guessing," Twilight said.
"Pretty much," Peter said. "You're so lucky you live in a cool looking castle, um do you live alone?"
"No, I have my assistant Spike, he's a Baby Dragon," Twilight said.
"You have a Dragon living here? Even cooler," Peter said.
"I also have my friend Starlight Glimmer, how we met was kind of interesting, but it's best if she told you since it's very personal for her," Twilight said. "Where exactly do you live?"
"Just a small apartment, it's not much, but it's my home," Peter said. "Plus I didn't want to move too far away from my Aunt's house."
"That's sweet, I take it you're close with your aunt," Twilight said.
"Well yeah, she actually raised me from birth," Peter said. "I never got to know my parents, so my Aunt and Uncle took me in and raised me to be an adult."
"Oh, sorry about your parents, do you know what happened?" Twilight asked.
"I was too young to remember, my Aunt and Uncle were my mom and dad for all my life, so I never really felt like I missed out," Peter said.
"Makes me feel lucky to have my parents, I still see them on occasion, they live back where that portal was made, I moved here a few years ago to make friends," Twilight said. "I was quite the bookworm and almost refused to make friends, thinking they were pointless."
"That's harsh, glad you changed your mind, big change if you're a Princess," Peter said. "I didn't have a lot of friends growing up, I was kind of nerdy so most kids avoided me."
"That's so mean," Twilight said. "You seem so nice."
"That's city life, does this world have cities?" Peter asked.
"Actually yes, the closest one is Manehattan," Twilight said.
"So I take it-wait, did you say 'Manehattan'?" Peter asked.
"Yeah why?" Twilight asked, getting an odd stare from Peter.
"Nevermind," that was unusual for Peter to hear. "Anyway do you have any other relatives?"
"Just my brother, his wife and my niece, they live and rule over The Crystal Empire," Twilight said.
"Crystal Empire huh? Reminds me of another hero, though different than my world," Peter said.
"Different? How?" Twilight asked.
"That's a long explaination, I'll be glad to tell you soon," Peter said. "Anywhere else you'd like to show me?"
Before Twilight could answer, she heard some excited shouts nearby, "Wow, you're amazing!"
"That sounds like Thunderlane," Twilight said.
"That's so cool! Wish I could do that!"
"And that was Rumble," Twilight said, then had an idea. "Come, let's go say 'hello' to them!"
Peter then followed Twilight to the location. There they can see Gwen showing off some web swinging tricks to Thunderlane, his brother Rumble, the twins Flitter and Cloudchaser, as well as The Cutie Mark Crusaders, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.
Gwen landed after performing a complicated trick, "Pretty nice, I've been practicing that one for weeks."
"It was beautiful!" Rumble said. "You're really talented Miss."
"Call me 'Gwen', and thanks," Gwen said. "What about you four? You said you do ariel tricks yourselves."
"Yeah, we have our own little thing we do together," Cloudchaser said. "It's pretty damn awesome too, if I say so myself."
"I'll hold you to that," Gwen said, then noticed Peter and Twilight. "Hey, come to watch the show?"
Everypony else turned to the two, Peter getting the attention of the twins and the foals.
"Wow, another human?" Rumble asked. "Do you have powers too?"
"Yeah, same as Gwen's," Peter said. "My name's Peter, nice to see you."
"I'm Rumble, and if you have the same powers as Gwen, can you do the tricks she was doing?" Rumble asked.
Peter sheepishly rubbed his head, "Well...I really don't like to show off."
"That's his way of saying he can't," Gwen teased, much to Peter's annoyance.
"I so can!" Peter insisted.
Twilght giggled at Peter's response, "Alright, let's try to get along here, this isn't a competition."
"It can be, if we get The Wonderbolts to start up a show," Rumble said. "So you two have the same powers, and you dress almost the same, are you two in a team together?"
"Well I dressed like this before the team, but yeah," Gwen said.
"Are you two also dating?" Flitter asked, getting a surprised reaction from Peter.
"How did teaming together lead to a question like that?" Peter asked.
"Thats' how my brother got with his marefriend," Rumble said. "They teamed up, now they love each other."
Twilight briefly cringed at hearing that, which Thunderlane noticed, "Let's not ask anymore, it can be embarrassing to talk about."
"It is," Gwen said. "But yeah, he's madly in love with me."
"Hey don't make it sound one-sided!" Peter said. "Not that we're officially a 'couple' persay, I'm still trying to figure things out."
"You mean with Laura?" Gwen asked. "Still can't pick between us, yet we'll gladly let you have both of us."
Peter groaned in annoyance, "See I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, and I really hope you are."
"Why? It's an awesome idea, really works too," Rumble said, bringing Sweetie Belle in with one hoof, Scootaloo with another and Apple Bloom with his wing. "I know from experience."
"He doesn't share!" another colt's voice shouted.
"Go away Tender Taps!" Rumble shouted, then groaned. "Pain in the flank."
Peter turned to the colt far off, "Love's not easy kid!"
"Tell me about it," Tender Taps said, then left.
"I've had romance troubles too, not the most pleasant thing," Twilight said.
"Then let's focus on Friendship," Peter said, then knelt down to Rumble and the foals. "So, it seems like you have a tight knit group of friends."
"We sure do," Apple Bloom said. "We were bounded together by Cutie Marks."
"What's a Cutie Mark?" Peter asked.
"The mark on our flanks," Flitter said, pointing to it. "It shows what we can do."
"Want a closer look?" Cloudchaser asked, moving her flank close to Peter, causing him to freak out.
"Whoa, not often a girl shows me her butt so willingly," Peter said.
"Um, I'm showing you my flank," Cloudchaser said, then grinned a bit. "But if you're curious enough, maybe I'll let you touch my mark too."
Peter took some awkward steps back, "Appreciate the offer, but I'd rather not."
Thunderlane groaned, "Can you not do that in front of my brother, he's still a little boy."
"I'm fourteen, and only for a couple more months too!" Rumble shouted. "I'm old enough to do 'things' with mares."
"I know that quite well," Thunderlane said, narrowing his eyes at Rumble. "That doesn't mean you should treat it like nothing."
"He's got a point," Gwen said. "I mean, I'm in my mid-20s and even I don't take it lightly."
"I find that hard to believe," Peter muttered, though still got a hard punch from Gwen.
"I heard that!" the spider girl shouted at the poor boy.
"Ow, jerk!" Peter said, rubbing his arm.
"Wow, that sounded rough," Gwen said.
"We have super strength, so yeah, it kinda hurts," Peter said.
Gwen knelt down to Rumble, "Mind what your brother says, even if you're at age, it's still a big responsibility."
"Sure thing Gwen," Rumble said. "Besides these girls keep me in line pretty well."
"We take good care of him," Apple Bloom said. "Especially since he's a year younger than us, so a year less mature."
"H-hey!" Rumble said.
"That and girls usually are more mature," Gwen said with a playful wink.
"What's that supposed to mean!?" Rumble, Thunderlane and Peter simutaniously shouted.
Twilight giggled a bit, then got Peter's attention, "Come with me into my castle, I'm sure there's some nice books you might like."
"Sounds fun," Peter said, following Twilight into her castle, though ran into two others that became curious by the sight of Peter.
"Um, Twilight, who's he?" Spike asked.
"More like what is he?" Starlight asked.
Twilight turned to Peter, "Meet my friends, Spike and Starlight." She turned to the two, "Spike, Starlight, meet Peter."
"Hello..." Peter said, waving a bit awkwardly to the two who matched the wave.
Off with Johnny and Rainbow Dash, the two were still flying over the city, flying past all the sky scrapers.
"There's the building Peter works at," Johnny said, pointing to The Daily Bugle.
"Cool," Rainbow said, then pointed ahead. "What building is that? Looks fancy"
Johnny looked where she was pointing, "That's Avengers Tower, home of the the strongest Superhero Team in this world, aside from the Fantastic Four, they're The Mighty Avengers."
"Wow, sounds awesome," Rainbow Dash said.
"Let's fly by!" Johnny said, gesturing Rainbow Dash to fly close to him. They flew past the building, getting the attention of one of The Avengers, Tony Stark. "Yo Stark!"
Tony looked out the window, not believing what he was seeing. "Am I going nuts? Why do I see Johnny Storm with a Rainbow pony?"
Johnny turned to Rainbow Dash, "That's Tony Stark, better known as Iron Man. Once he puts on his suit, he starts kicking bad guy ass."
"Does he kick ass better than you?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Please, no one does that better than me," Johnny insisted, then waved bye to Stark and Avengers tower. "See you around rich boy!"
"Later Iron Man!" Rainbow Dash said, flying off as well.
Tony looked down at the coffee he was holding, "Did Pepper put something in this?"
Both Johnny and Rainbow Dash continued to fly over, doing their best to stay out of sight for the most part, not wanting to alert the people in town.
"There's so much to see in this world, too bad you can't stay long," Johnny said.
"For now, I'm sure that friend of yours and Sunset Shimmer will make another portal," Rainbow Dash said.
"That friend is actually my Brother-in-law Reed, he and my sister Susan have been married for some time," Johnny said. "They both really love science."
"So they're eggheads?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Yeah, pretty much," Johnny said.
"Wow, just like Twilight," Rainbow Dash said.
"Well I guess we need eggheads, they create cool moments like this," Johnny said. "Race you the edge of town and back."
"Oh you're on!" Rainbow Dash said, the two flying into the distance, just past Pinkie and Deadpool's balloon.
"Wow, they're fast!" Pinkie said.
"Too fast, they need to enjoy these moments," Deadpool said. "A chance to relax with friends."
"You got a point," Pinkie said. "Where are your friends?"
"Hm, maybe I should call them up," Deadpool said, grabbing his phone and dialing a number. "Yo, Cable! It's me, Deadpool! You wanna meet this new friend of mine? She's really cool! She likes parties and she's got pink hair!...No I'm not imagining her! She's real!...Oh come on, have you seen the freaks in this world! How is Pink hair weird!? I know you've seen someone with Pink hair!...Look she's real, I'm telling you, she's a real life talking pony!...Hello? Cable? Helloooooo!" Deadpool hung up, "Guess he's busy, I'll talk to him later in person, I can tell he really enjoys my company, we even train a lot together. His favorite thing to do is pretend I'm the enemy and uses me for target practice, he really gets into it, like if he wants to completely annihalaite me."
Pinkie blinked for a few seconds, then immediately smiled, "Sounds fun!"
"It is!" Deadpool said. "Well let's continue enjoying this flight."
"With cake!" Pinkie shouted, holding up a tray of plates.
"I swear I love you!" Deadpool said, grabbing some. "Um, as a friend at least."
"I'm good with that," Pinkie said, munching on her cake.
Back with the linked portals, everyone was sitting together, as Eddie explained his prior experiences. "The suit just took over, started turning me into a monster. I used to hate Spider-Man, I wanted nothing more than to hurt him. Over time I realized, he was never the bad guy, I was the one at fault, I let my anger amd hatred take over my judgement. Thanks to Spider-Man, and this whole group, I was able to move past my hatred, and become the hero I knew I could be. That's my story, of how Venom put aside his villain past, and became a being worthy of heroics."
The ponies in the area seemed touched by Eddie's story, especially Sunset, Lightning Dust and Trixie.
"That's so great that you got past all of that hatred," Sunset said. "I know what it's like, even I've been subjected to that myself."
"Yeah, same here," Lightning Dust said. "I held a grudge for so long over being booted from The Wonderbolts, but thanks to my friends, and especially Trixie, I was able to move past all that and become better."
"Yes, grudges are meaningless, but Friendship is true," Trixie said.
"Glad I can find others who relate," Eddie said.
"You should talk to Princess Luna, she might find your story interesting as well," Rarity said.
Reed looked at the time and noticed the portal acting weird. "No, the portal, it's going to be closing soon."
"But I finally started tolerating this world," Laura said, who had been sitting close to Fluttershy. "It can't close now."
"Now let's not worry, I should be able to make another portal soon with Sunset Shimmer's assistance," Reed said. "It might take a while but this won't be the last time we're here."
"I do hope not, I've only known you all a few hours but you're lovely company," Rarity said.
"I kinda wanted to see that Apple farm," Remy said.
"We'll have time, someday," Reed said. "For now, let us prepare our good-byes."
Not too long later, Johnny, Rainbow Dash, Deadpool and Pinkie Pie also returned, then Twilight and Thunderlane returned with Peter and Gwen.
"Are you sure you're ok with me borrowing this book?" Peter asked. "I don't know when I'll be back, or if I'll be back at all."
"You seemed so interested, I can't let you leave without finishing it," Twilight said. "Plus I'm sure you'll be back, but if not, then consider it a reminder of me."
"Like I can forget a pretty face like yours," Peter said, getting a blush from Twilight.
"You're too kind," Twilight said. "You're pretty handsome yourself."
Laura growled a bit at hearing that, making Peter feel nervous. "Thanks Twilight."
Thunderlane flew over to Johnny, "You didn't try anything funny with my mare, did you?"
Johnny put his hands up defensively, "I did nothing dude, just a friendly race, that I won."
"You won!?" Rainbow Dash asked. "You're delusional Torch!"
"Accept loss with grace Dash," Johnny said.
"Tch, grace, sure," Rainbow Dash said. "Keep telling yourself that you won, maybe you'll actually buy into it."
Thunderlane seemd a bit relieved, much to the humor of Gwen. He turned to the Spider hero beside him, "Thanks for showing my brother those tricks."
"He's really cute, I hope I can see him and you again someday," Gwen said.
"I hope so too," Thunderlane said.
The two shared a quick hug before seperating to their side of the portal.
Logan knelt down beside Fluttershy, "Thanks for helping with Laura, good thing yer good with animals."
"It's not really my talent that helped, just some kindness, which she seems to really need," Fluttershy said.
"I ain't too good with that, kinda bummed you won't be around fer a while," Logan said.
Fluttershy placed her hoof on his shoulder, looking him straight in the eye, "You're much more capable than you think, believe in yourself Logan."
Logan nodded and once again thanked her before going back to his side of the portal.
Soon both sides were ready to depart.
"Bye Applejack, I hope to see your farm next time," Remy said with a small wave.
"Ah hope so too, mah family would like that too," Applejack said, with a tip of her hat.
"Oh, I forgot to tell that big rock guy about my family's farm!" Pinkie said, then shrugged it off. "Next time."
"Bye Pinkie, next time I'll come to Sugarcube Corner!" Deadpool said, waving at his friend.
"Oh, bye Wade! Yeah it'll be fun!" Pinkie said, waving bye.
"Bye Rarity, good luck on your clothes," Bobby said, doing a thumbs up.
"Next time I'll make something for you, it'll be a fun challenge," Rarity said with a nod.
"Bye Trixie, Lightning Dust, we should really talk more next time," Felicia said waved.
"It would be a pleasure," Trixie said with a bow.
"Yeah, we'll take you on a tour of our own," Lightning offered.
"Bye Thunderlane, tell Rumble I'll miss him," Gwen said with her own wave.
"He'll miss you too, so will I," Thunderlane said, sadly waving with his wing.
"Thanks for listening to my story," Venom said. "It meant a lot."
"We're happy to be an audience," Sunset said.
"See you later Rainbow Dash," Johnny said with a quick wave of his hand.
"Totally, next time you gotta take me inside Avengers Tower, then I'll take you to meet The Wonderbolts," Rainbow Dash said.
"It's a date," Johnny said.
"Hey!" Thunderlane shouted, looking really displeased.
Johnny smiled sheepishly, "Wrong choice of words."
Rainbow Dash chuckled as well, then flew over to kiss Thunderlane's cheek. "Relax will you?"
Thunderlane felt some relief.
"Bye Fluttershy, you were the least annoying here," Laura said.
"Laura!" Logan shouted, then tried to calm himself. "Um Laura, please mind the feelings of everyone else here."
Laura groaned, "Fine...I guess."
Fluttershy waved bye, "Bye Logan, bye Laura, I'll see you again soon."
Peter clutched the book Twilight gave him, "Bye Twilight, it was nice talking to you, Spike and Starlight."
"I wish they could have come, but they have so much to do," Twilight said. "I'll miss you though Peter, I hope to see you again, then we can really become friends."
"I already consider you one," Peter said with a smile.
Twilight looked relieved, "Good, me too."
Reed waved at the group, "Til next time, Sunset Shimmer."
Sunset nodded, "Til next time, Reed Richards."
Both portals closed, leaving the new friends seperated, but only for now. Perhaps they'll reunite again someday.
Always wanted to make a crossover like this. Might do more, this was just an experimentation so to say. If I come up with another idea, then expect another story.
