Chapter Text
This chapter is to explain the background of the universe this story takes place in. Feel free to skip to chapter two if you don’t think you need background, I won’t be offended. *author sniffles in the corner*
Tony had bought the Stark Tower back, so now it was equal parts for the Avengers and the company. Tony and Pepper are married and still have Morgan. Aunt May was not blipped away, and was instead killed in a mugging a year prior to the Avenger’s bringing everyone back. Natasha didn’t die. Groot (wasn’t blipped) and Rocket went to Vormir, and Groot sacrificed himself. Rocket still has a twig in honor of him.
Loki has promised to stop dying (he broke his promise after he pranked Thor by getting hit by a car). Yes Loki is alive, I love Loki and he didn’t deserve to die. >:(
Now enjoy this little battle scene I wrote, because I have been thinking about it in too much detail to not include it :)
Dr. Banner snapped. He brought everyone back. Everyone who had been gone for the five years of the Blip came back.
Thanos didn’t like that. He used Nebula as a means to transport him and his army to the future, for the sole purpose of killing everyone. Not half of everyone like before, but everyone. And the war began again.
Much like the battle on Titan, it looked as though the few avengers would inevitably lose. Until the portals opened. Portal after portal, warriors flooded onto the battlefield, all would fight and die to protect the world from Thanos. And that is just what they did.
Peter swung through the air, killing aliens with the help of Karen. In some turn of events, he ended up with the gauntlet. His instincts screamed at him to keep swinging. Peter avoided enemies, defended the glove with the infinity stones, and even got to ride a pegasus!
Some of the women warriors took the gauntlet out of his hands. It was their turn to defend.
But Thanos got the gauntlet back. He raised his hand, preparing to snap. “I am,” he took a dramatic pause, "inevitable."
Snap.
Snap snap.
Thanos looked at his hand. It held no infinity stones. Thanos’ gaze lingered on Tony Stark, billionaire playboy philanthropist. Tony had the stones.
Peter’s Spidey Sense warned him. Every hair on his body stood on end. He saw Tony. Tony was about to snap.
“And I,” Tony wheezed, “am Ironman–”
Tony cried out in anguish. Thanos, in three steps, took his hand off with a clean swipe of a sword. Tony’s nano-suit was already working to cut off circulation and fix the missing hand. Thanos paid no mind to the handicapped hero. He lifted the hand into the air, and pried the stones from the nano-gauntlet.
Peter acted on instinct. He flung himself through the air and webbed the stones out of Thanos’ grimy palm. He slapped them on the backside of his hand. “Karen,” Peter yelled, but Karen seemed to understand. She accepted the stones and made her own nano-gauntlet.
“Peter– are you sure you wish to continue? There is little chance of survival–” Karen’s voice was calm yet worried at the same time. Her words were halting, as if she was stuttering.
Peter didn’t respond to the AI. He dodged Thanos and landed near Tony.
“Is this the better you were looking for?” Peter asked Tony, mask down so that his mentor could see his face.
Snap.
Energy coursed through Peter’s left hand as the infinity stones obeyed his command. Thanos’ army was turned to dust. But that wasn’t all Peter had done. He brought back everyone. The Asguardians. Anyone who had lost their life from any form of accident that occurred because of the original snap. Vision. Everyone.
Peter found himself in shallow water. An infinite expanse of orange, hazy water. He turned around and saw May. Aunt May. She was standing under a sort of torii. Her gaze was loving. She embraced Peter.
“You did it, baby,” she hugged him tighter.
“I did, May, I know I did,” Peter responded.
May held him at arms length away.
“But you didn’t bring me back.”
Peter paused. “What?” he asked quietly.
May didn’t respond. Peter was back on the battlefield. He saw Thanos take a seat, and then crumble into dust. His body felt like it was being ripped apart and stitched back together, thanks to his healing factor. It was like Titan all over again. The horrible sensation of death, not quite catching up.
Tony, ignoring his own injuries, scrambled over to Peter. He cradled the teen in his arms, whispering “I’ve got you, you’ll be OK, it’s all over now.”
Pepper landed a few feet away. Wanda did too. Thor, Captain America, Ant Man, Hawkeye, Black Panther, and every fighter on the battlefield paused. They had seen the blinding white light of the stones. They watched the army crumble. And now, they all turned their gaze upon the child who had won the war.

Ok now back to summary mode. Peter was alive thanks to his healing factor. Tony and Pepper brought him back to the Tower for medical treatment (since that’s what every other fic does). Tony got a prosthetic hand, made of vibranium and courtesy of the Wakandans. Peter was in a coma for three weeks as his healing factor fixed him.
Once he woke up, his left arm was basically useless, and it would take a while of physical therapy to fix his arm. (Yay Doctor Strange for helping with moral support!). Ned and MJ both knew about him being Spiderman, and so do the Avengers.
Peter found out about Aunt May, was heartbroken, but moved on and didn’t tell anyone how he felt (classic Peter). Tony and Pepper wouldn’t let him live alone in a dingy apartment, so they adopted him (the press does not know), and now Peter lives at the Tower with the rest of the Avengers, plus at the Stark log cabin. The Avengers are all friends. Civil War is just a suggestion. Same with any movie that came after Engame, really.
Morgan identifies Peter as her older brother, and Tony and Pepper have gotten used to calling him their son. MJ and Peter are dating <3 Why? Because I said so.
Now it’s time to get to the common tropes that everyone knows and loves (why else would you be here if you didn’t??). Have fun reading my first fic!! :D
