CHAPTER TWELVE

Wade Wilson. Peter Parker. Jessica Drew. Kamala Kahn.

These are the names I gave to Steve to recruit. Little did I know he'd want me to be the one to find half of them. I told him that Carol would be best suited for Kamala and Jessica, since she's going by the name Ms. Marvel now and Jessica is basically Carol's best friend, but Steve says that Carol has sided with Tony, so Steve himself is going to recruit the teenage Inhuman and Bucky is going after Jessica. The new Ms. Marvel is an Avengers fangirl, and Bucky has something in common with the Spider-Woman. They both had horrible experiences with HYDRA.

I'm getting the pleasure of finding Peter and Wade. Who the hell knows where Deadpool is, but I know exactly where to find Spider-Man.

I find him helping his Aunt May outside her apartment building. He's helping her carry his boxes, and Steve's intelligence suggests that he and Mary Jane Watson are moving in together after a long engagement. They are to be wed this coming Saturday, and I hate to even think of asking him for help.

He's grown up now, around twenty-five, only a year younger than me. He went to Empire State University, where he met Mary Jane and they confided in each other over the recent loss of Gwen and Mary Jane's horrible family. Companionship turned into friendship, and friendship turned into love. They've been together for nearly three years.

Once May Parker leaves to go back into the house, and Peter closes the trunk to his car, I start my walk up to the Spider-Man, attempting to keep my cool.

It's just Spider-Man. No big deal.

He turns to me and smiles shyly, glancing away quickly. Peter always was shy and anti-social. "Excuse me," I start out. "Would you mind helping me?"

Peter turns to me and manages a smile. "Sure. How can I help?"

I smile. "My car is not starting. I hate to ask, but could you..." I motion towards the old Nissan that Steve told me to take. I told him that waltzing up to Peter's front door and demanding he help us wasn't the way to get him on our side. The best way to get Peter to listen is to get him to think someone needs his help, and a pregnant woman with a broken car in the middle of New York is perfect to get him to open up.
