[3rd person POV]
Peter and Mary Jane witnessed the destruction caused by Abomination. Everyone was running away in fear except him. His body froze as memories of that fateful day flashed in front of his eyes. The stench of his burning flesh, the smoke filling his lungs, the excruciating pain he endured. Everything came back to haunt him.
His breathing became ragged. His legs trembled. His heartbeat accelerated. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. His mind screamed only one word 'Flee'. Peter was scared. Terrified. Paralyzed. He couldn't move. It was his instinct to run away and escape from danger. But isn't this his chance to take his revenge?
He wanted to live as a selfish hero and promised to take revenge on those responsible for his death in his past life, but somewhere in his heart, he knew things might not be the same since this was an alternate reality, but still decided to punish this reality's versions of his tormentors. Then try his luck in magic and go back to his own reality to take revenge. Everything was going according to his plan, he got power, fought a little, and got girls, but never in his wildest dreams he ever imagined he would encounter Abomination this early.
This monster was responsible for everything. And now he was facing the same monster in an alternate universe. And that too this early. But he has power now, so why does his body refuse to move and his mind screaming to run away? Is it fear? Is he scared? No. Peter Parker wasn't scared of Abomination. He was terrified. His instinct was telling him to run away and save himself. To leave these random strangers and run for his life.
His Spider Sense blared like crazy warning him of impending danger. And yet, he couldn't move. Fear. He was afraid. Afraid of dying again.
"Peter... Peter..." MJ called his name repeatedly snapping him out of his trance. "Peter, come on. We need to run." She pulled him, trying to get away from there.
"...Mary Jane..." He mumbled in a low voice. He felt a little disoriented.
"Peter, snap out of it. We gotta run. Now!" She urged him.
Before his eyes he saw the same old Volkswagen van burning on the other side of the road, the one that crushed his body, breaking his spinal cord and paralyzing him permanently. His eyes widened in fear. He grabbed her hand and ran away from there. He ran as fast as he could. Faster than ever. Peter ran like a madman without caring about anything. His Spider-Sense warned him of incoming debris. He pulled MJ in his arms and jumped away from the falling debris.
'So, this is fear,' He thought to himself as he ran as fast as he could with MJ in his arms, 'And this intense crawling feeling on my body is Spider-Sense at its max.' He dodged debris after debris using his Spider-Sense. 'It's intensifying according to my emotions. Interesting...' He grinned while sweating buckets. He was still afraid, no doubt about that, but for some reason, he wanted to fight back, maybe he wanted to break through that wall of fear and face him, maybe this was his way of saying, 'I will smash you motherfucker, watch me,' and maybe, this was his chance to grow as a man. To face his fears, to beat back his doubts, and to kick the fear out of his ass.
Another boom occurred close to him. He looked back and that old Volkswagen van was high in the sky, above him. The familiar scenario from his past life occurred. He was near the mall.
'No,' was his only response, 'not again'.
He swiftly dodged it, thanks to his enhanced speed, and made a sharp left towards the Central Park. He put MJ down, "You alright?" He asked with a worried look on his face, examining her body for any signs of injury.
"I am fine... I am okay..." She replied gasping for air.
The cops were all over the place, evacuating the civilians and some were shooting at the giant. The heroes were nowhere to be seen. Then another explosion occurred just a few meters away from Central Park. A hulking red giant fell from the sky creating a deep crater on impact, followed by Green Hulk, who landed on him, creating even more destructive shockwaves. Green Hulk growled like an animal and smashed the red giant's face with his right fist.
'One thing after another. Give me a break,' Peter thought.
"GO!" Peter yelled as he pulled MJ's hand and they started running again, but now their destination was the Police Line, well if there were any. As they got closer, the siren wails of the police cruisers got louder and they finally saw the barricade, a dozen cops with guns and shotguns surrounded in a crescent formation, while an injured officer helped her colleague put up the barricades around a nearby vehicle.
"GO! GO! GET AWAY FROM HERE!" The policemen yelled as they opened fire with their guns and shotguns. "Get back! Go back now." They fired shot after shot, but it was pointless. Their shots weren't doing anything to them, their shots were ineffective, which led to their ammo being drained out fast.
Peter left MJ's hand as they reached a safer distance and disappeared among the crowd, before she could utter a single word, "Pete! Where... Where did he go?" Her eyebrows creased as she scanned her surroundings.

[Back to Abomination]
The Thing, Susan Storm, and Colossus arrived at the scene.
The Thing and Colossus punched Abomination left and right in rapid succession. Throwing kicks and punches, the pair attacked Abomination from left and right as Sue Storm focused on evacuating the remaining civilians. She was shielding them and preventing any damage from their fights while slowly pushing people back.
"Is this all you got?" Abomination taunted his opponents. "Some ants and a mouse?"
Abomination slammed his palms together. The force generated between his palms created an explosive effect and launched the Thing and Colossus away from him, they rolled around a few feet away, smashing through some pavement and breaking the tarmac, eventually they got back on their feet as the Thing ran straight and smashed his shoulder against Abomination's knee. The ground beneath him cracked and the force caused Abomination to stumble back.
The Thing smashed his hard rock-like fists on Abomination's thigh and calf, but a hard kick in his chest stopped his assault and threw him back several meters, which then got followed by the steel punch from Colossus, on the same place The Thing attacked previously. This time the brute stood his ground, showing no signs of being affected by any of their previous attacks. He let out a throaty laugh, his lungs rumbling deeply with every mocking sound.
"HAHAHAHA! MERE BUGS! BRING ME HULK!" His voice boomed through the streets, followed by a scream of intense pain, "GAAAHHHH!" Something has pierced through his thick armored green scales, almost reaching his spinal cord. He quickly jumped up in the air and tried to slam to the ground on his back to crush the one who attacked him.
[Baaam!] An explosion rang loudly when he slammed his body against the ground.
The Thing and Colossus were surprised by this sudden development, when the air cleared, they saw a glimpse of him, a young man standing on top of the ruined building. Two long claws were sticking out of his wrists. The claws gleamed in the sunlight as it was covered in blood, fresh from his attack on Abomination. His face was covered with a dust mask and a hoodie was covering his head, making it almost impossible to identify him.
"Who is that?" Colossus asked The Thing.
"Uh... no clue," The Thing said confused.
Sue on the other hand had evacuated the area and was now ready to join the fight, but she was also surprised to hear the agonizing cry of Abomination, writhing in pain. His regenerative ability soon kicked in, healing the wound in his back. He gritted his teeth and leaped from the ground, roaring furiously. His target was the boy, standing on top of that falling building looking down on him with a mocking gaze.
"RAWRRRRR!" A massive punch with all his brute strength, aimed to pulverize that boy's bones into mush, along with his flesh. The hit landed perfectly on his target, but that masked boy dodged it with ease and threw a web on his face, pulling himself on his face. His right claw aimed at his left eye. "RAWWRRR!!"
The boy jumped down on the ground. A giant eyeball was thrown on the ground beside his feet, where he landed. The Abomination was crying out in pain. His left eye was gouged out of its socket. He was groaning and trying to find the boy with his right eye. He crushed it with his feet. He looked up in the sky and saw a hulk buster, flying towards their location.
He looked back at the baffled heroes, "Now you owe me one." He then threw a web at the nearby building and pulled himself onto the rooftop before disappearing from their sight.
"This is just a little trailer. I will break you slowly and you will feel what a real nightmare looks like you motherfucking giant..." He jumped into the nearby alley and looked around, "Ok, time to go," He removed his mask and hoodie and made his way toward the safe barricade. "Ah! MJ must be worried. Need to come up with an excuse..."
