The relentless battle raged on as Uncle Ben, Ben, and Spider-Punk faced the overwhelming numbers of the Spider-Society.
With each passing moment, Ben felt the strain on his body intensify, wounds accumulating from the ceaseless onslaught. Despite his valiant efforts, the tide of spider-themed combatants seemed never-ending.
Spider-Punk, once the perfect partner for Uncle Ben, found himself struggling in the chaotic melee. The inability to synchronize with Uncle Ben, who was now consumed by a relentless pursuit of Miguel, left Spider-Punk vulnerable to the relentless attacks from the Spider-Society members.
The duo’s dynamic, once a dance of precision and power, now faltered under the weight of Uncle Ben’s single-minded determination.
Ever since Uncle Ben’s brutal encounter with the black suited Spider-Man, whose leg he snapped in half, a disturbing transformation had taken place. It was as if a switch had been flipped, unleashing a monstrous side of Uncle Ben that cared not for consequences or restraint. His focus, sharp as a blade, fixated solely on the goal of reaching Miguel.
Uncle Ben’s fighting style mirrored his newfound ruthlessness. Each opponent in his path was systematically dismantled, limbs twisted, and bodies battered.
While he refrained from killing, as the menacing warnings he issued earlier were just a means to thin the herd of enemies while also instilling fear, that didn’t mean he wouldn’t maim them for getting in his way.
After all, in his eyes, these ‘heroes’ are protecting a child killer.
And this style of ruthless fighting was certainly successful in its own way, leading many to hesitate which created openings for Uncle Ben to exploit, leaving broken and bloodied Spider-People in his wake.
As the skirmish unfolded, Uncle Ben assumed the role of a gladiator, his relentless attacks leaving a huge impression on everyone present. Fear rippled through the once-confident society members, now questioning their decision to involve themselves with this in the face of Uncle Ben’s unbridled aggression.
Uncle Ben, on the verge of breaking another Spider-Person’s leg, prepared for the final, crippling blow when sudden two crimson blurs shot out of the crowd. “?”
A timely intervention, one figure kicked his foot away, altering the trajectory and saving the targeted leg, while the other delivered a powerful punch to Uncle Ben’s face, sending him staggering backward.
Catching his balance, Uncle Ben wiped the blood from his lip, his eyes narrowing as he recognized the newcomers.
Jessica Drew, the Vice Leader of the Spider-Society, and Ben Reilly, otherwise known as Scarlet Spider-Man.
Jessica Drew, a beautiful woman, commanded attention on the chaotic battleground. Her sleek black and red spider suit accentuated her thick, yet athletic build, while yellow-tinted goggles perched on her mask framed her determined gaze.

Scarlet Spider-Man stood beside her in his dark red spider suit, complemented by a sleeveless, hooded blue jacket. He eyed uncle Ben in silence, a conflicted frown marring his masked face.

The duo, familiar faces from his past, now stood between him and the Spider-Society, their expressions determined.
“That’s enough!” Jessica Drew’s stern voice cut through the chaos, her crimson costume contrasting sharply with the surrounding chaos.
Uncle Ben’s gaze shifted between the two, a momentary pause in his relentless pursuit. The air crackled with tension as Jessica Drew stepped forward, her eyes locked onto Uncle Ben’s, “We won’t let you harm anyone else. Stand down, or we’ll have to stop you again.”
Ignoring Jessica’s stern warning, Uncle Ben turned to Scarlet Spider-Man, a venomous sneer on his face. “Well, well, if it isn’t the traitor. How’s life been treating you since you stabbed me in the back?” The bitterness in Uncle Ben’s voice echoed through the chaotic battleground.
Scarlet Spider-Man, standing stoically, felt the weight of Uncle Ben’s accusation. The conflict on his masked face only intensified under his former teachers harsh gaze.
Back when he was still a member of the Spider-Society, patiently waiting and plotting Miguel’s death, Uncle Ben decided to take a sort of apprentice.
And that apprentice was a younger Ben Reilly, the man who now stood before him.
Driven by a misguided sense of trust, he had taken the now-named Scarlet Spider-Man under his wing, mentoring him within the ranks of the Spider-Society. The older Spider-Man taught him everything he could, seeing him as a sort of surrogate son.
Until one day, in a moment of vulnerability and trust, Uncle Ben shared his personal vendetta against Miguel O’Hara, the leader of the Spider-Society. Even going so far as to reveal intricate details of his assassination plan.
But it wasn’t to ask for help or try to recruit his young apprentice.
No, it was to warn him to stay out of the Society on a certain date, as that would be the day all hell broke loose, the day he would kill Miguel.
He just didn’t want to get his student wrapped up in his mess
Of course, since Miguel is still very much alive and Uncle Ben was just a prisoner not too long ago, things didn’t go exactly as planned.
Uncle Ben’s unwavering trust proved to be his downfall.
As he prepared to finally execute his well thought out plan, he surprisingly fell into a carefully laid trap, his hopes shattered. In the absence of Miguel, he faced capture and imprisonment, left to wonder why his grand plan had crumbled.
The truth, a bitter revelation that Uncle Ben only discovered in the cold confines of captivity, when Miguel came to see him and brag, was that Scarlet Spider-Man had turned traitor. He had leaked every detail of Uncle Ben’s plan to Miguel, dismantling the foundation of trust that had been painstakingly built between them.
Now, Uncle Ben confronted Scarlet Spider-Man with a mix of anger and disappointment. The echoes of his past betrayal reverberated in the tense air between them.
Scarlet Spider-Man, the weight of his actions hanging heavy, met Uncle Ben’s accusatory gaze. The mask hid the turmoil within, a conflict that mirrored the internal struggle between loyalty and betrayal.
As the battleground fell into a tense silence, Uncle Ben’s voice cut through, a potent mix of disdain and frustration. “You know, when you’re thrown into prison, you suddenly get a lot of time to think and figure stuff out. But there’s just one thing that I could never find an answer to” He says, eyeing his former student questioningly. “Why? Why did you betray me?”
The question hung in the air as everyone paused, the battlefield descending into a frozen standstill.
Scarlet Spider-Man’s masked face remained stoic, deflecting Uncle Ben’s probing question with a simple response, “It doesn’t matter now, does it?”
Uncle Ben frowned, a mixture of disappointment and acknowledgment in his eyes. “I suppose not. What’s done is done after all”
Cracking his knuckles, Uncle Ben’s focus shifted from emotional confrontation to physical. “I hope you’ve been keeping up with your training because I’ve had nothing but time on my hands”
As tension escalated, Jessica Drew attempted to defuse the situation. “Surrender now, Old Man. We can find another way to resolve this. Not everything has to be solved with violence and murder”
Uncle Ben, however, remained unmoved, ready for a showdown. “Not this time, Jessica. I’ve come too far and waited long enough…”
Jessica signaled to the surrounding Spider-Society members. “Focus on the other two. We’ll handle him ourselves.” She said, gesturing to Uncle Ben. The debut release happened at N0v3lBiin.
The battleground brimmed with anticipation as combatants readied for the impending clash. But just as the confrontation was about to erupt, a star-shaped portal manifested between the two factions, catching everyone off guard.
Stepping through the portal, Peter, Tobey, Gwen, and Miles found themselves in the midst of what appeared to be a chaotic battle based on all of the damage and injured people surrounding them.
Surveying the scene, Peter mused, “Well, this saves us a lot of time…” He said, spotting Ben, who was looking at him with wide, hopeful eyes. “Yo, how’s it going Ben? Did you lose a little weight? You were much rounder the last time I saw you”
Completely ignoring the fact that Peter just called him fat, Ben’s eyes widened with relief and joy as he rushed over, trapping Peter in a spontaneous hug, “Peter! You have no idea how happy I am to see you right now!”
For Ben, who had faced overwhelming odds and imprisonment up until now, Peter’s arrival seemed like the answer to all his prayers, a beacon of hope to wrap all of this up so he can finally head home.
The smile on Ben’s face reflected newfound confidence, which confused everyone, especially the Society Members, as they still had the numerical advantage.
Even Uncle Ben and Spider-Punk were wondering what made Ben so confident and relaxed now. Although the odds were a bit better with these reinforcements, they were still outnumbered ten to one.
As the unexpected arrivals processed the situation, the battleground, once a tense arena of conflict, now brimmed with uncertainty.
Frozen in place for a moment, Jessica Drew’s eyes widened with fear as she recognized Peter. ‘I need to contact Miguel before it’s too late’ She thought, quickly tapping a few buttons on her watch as she tried to sneak away, ducking her head behind a crowd of nearby spider-people.
“Ahem!” Peter cleared his throat, unleashing a sliver of his newfound power, which expanded outward, dropping a veil of suffocating gravity over everyone in the area. “I didn’t say anyone could leave” He said, his gaze falling on Jessica, who stopped in her tracks, unable to move her body a single inch.
