Tom, Tobey, and Andrew looked at each other, confused by what they've been given. "What's this?" Tom asked.

"It's a way for all of us Spider-People to stay connected across the multiverse," Peter explained. "I created it during my last visit to another universe, and it already has some members."

He instructed them to open the chat on the three phones, revealing an active chat room.

Spider-Pig: Did everyone else get that notification? ?

Gwen: Yeah, did Peter add more members to the chat?

Miles: It's crazy that he has time to find new members, but can't find the time to talk to us ?

Ben: Right! He doesn't even know about me and MJ's engagement ?

Peni: Isn't it just your ex-wife?

Noir: Yeah, you've already married that dame once before. Just let us know when you're divorced again ?

Ben: …

"These are the members already in the chat," Peter continued, ignoring their conversation altogether. "They're all from different universes, just like us. With the group chat, we can share information and be there for each other whenever we need help or support."

Tobey raised an eyebrow, impressed by the idea. "So, we're part of a superhero support group?"

"Essentially, yes," Peter nodded with a grin. "But I like to think of it as more of a discord channel, where we call all keep in touch."

Andrew seemed intrigued but also a bit hesitant. "What if we accidentally reveal something that alters the course of someone's universe?"

Peter shook his head. "That's the point. I made this chat so you guys can be better equipped to overcome any obstacles." He explained matter of factly. "Need information on a villain or help with some tech, or possibly some romantic advice? Ask the chat and we can help. Though based on what we just witnessed, they may also tease you a bit along the way."

"Isn't that dangerous?" Andrew asked. "Shouldn't we try not to alter our destiny's or whatever?"

"Dude…" Peter sighed in exasperation. "You've been watching too many sci-fi movies. This is the real world. Getting some info or advice from a chat room isn't going to bring about the end of time and space..."

Tom smiled, admiring his new phone. "This is actually pretty cool. I'd like to be a part of it."

"Me too," Tobey chimed in, sharing Tom's sentiment.

Andrew, convinced, nodded in agreement. "Alright, count me in."

"Welcome to the team," Peter said with a smile as they familiarized themselves with the chat app. "Feel free to introduce yourselves to the other members later. After all, we have to-"

Tony cut in, interrupting Peter mid-sentence. "Do we get one of those as well? If not, how much do I have to pay to get one?" He asked, excited at the possibility of studying messages that travel through the multiverse.

And he wasn't the only one that wanted their own phone. Almost everyone in the room, stared at Tom, Tobey, and Andrew and their phones with envious gazes.

"No." Peter flat out refused. "Sorry, but this is kind of a Spider-People only sort of thing."

The three Spider-Men glanced at each other, feeling a bit smug after hearing that, as if they were VIP's or something. They were now part of a unique community, connected with their counterparts all across the multiverse.

Ignoring the depressed and almost hostile feeling that suddenly filled the room, Peter brought everyone back on track. "Alright, let's finish these rituals and get everyone back to where they belong..."

…

..

.

The Avengers Tower was abuzz with anticipation as Peter prepared to perform the intricate rituals that currently filled the room. The whole place was bathed in the eerie glow of Eldritch energy, as Peter stood at the center, his very being pulsating with power. Lily watched her father with wide eyes, her heart filled with both excitement and admiration.

"Alright, everyone," Peter called out, gathering the attention of the group. "This is the first part of the spell. I'm going to create the clones now, and then we'll proceed with the second part to bind their astral forms. Stay back, and don't, under any circumstances, interrupt the ritual." He added, a very serious look on his face.

They all nodded in understanding, knowing the importance of precision in magical workings. They watched in awe as Peter began the spell, his hands tracing complex patterns in the air. The room seemed to tremble with energy as the symbols took shape, glowing with otherworldly power.

The components laid out around the room glowed in response, each contributing to the spell's power. Lily's eyes sparkled as she observed the magical display, and even the cured villains watched in fascination, curious about the sorcery they had never witnessed before.

As the symbols began to take form, a soft hum filled the air, and the atmosphere became charged with raw energy. It was as if the very fabric of reality was bending to Peter's will. The symbols coalesced into two coffin-shaped shadows, and from within them, two ethereal figures started to emerge.

The figures slowly took shape, form bones to muscles, tendons, nerves, skin, and hair, they materializing into the exact replicas of Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff. They were perfect duplicates, down to the finest detail, bearing the same appearances, clothes as their originals.

(A/N: Gotta keep it PG for Lily.)

"Whoa..." Lily gasped, her excitement bubbling over. "Dad, you did it! You created them!"

Peter smiled at his daughter's enthusiasm. "Your dad's cool, huh?" he replied proudly before preparing for the next ritual. "Now, I need Tony and Natasha to come forward."

Tony and Natasha hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to expect. They looked at each other, silently seeking reassurance. Finally, they stepped forward, drawn toward Peter and the two identical clones.

"Now, you both need to take a deep breath and relax," Peter instructed. "I'm going to pull your astral forms from your bodies, but don't worry, you won't feel any pain."

He reached out with his hands, carefully manipulating the Eldritch energy surrounding Tony and Natasha. He focused his willpower on their astral forms, coaxing them to separate from their physical bodies.

Tony and Natasha gasped in shock as they felt a strange sensation wash over them. It was as if they were floating, weightless and intangible. They looked down and saw their own physical bodies below, lying unconscious on the floor.

"Oh my... We're souls?" Natasha said, her voice filled with wonder.

Peter nodded with a smile. "Exactly. Now, stay calm and trust me. I'm going to bind your astral forms to your original bodies."

With practiced precision, Peter initiated the second part of the ritual. "Galthronyx lumenya thurindal, Klaatu barada nikto, Kocoum tonan, Klaatu verata nikto, Z?rán mìngti?n, biàn x?ngliè, Kalimát fáti?á, Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo, Ankalimon suishentori, Yagami Raito, Híril nín, lû govaded, Koronare boromene amiles." He chanted ancient incantations, drawing runes in the air and intertwining their energies with the astral forms of Tony and Natasha.

The glowing symbols spiraled around them, connecting them to their original, physical bodies below. As the ritual reached its climax, the runes glowed brighter and brighter, until they emitted a blinding burst of light that enveloped Tony and Natasha. The light seemed to merge with their astral forms, drawing them down into their respective clone bodies.

In an instant, the light subsided, leaving Tony and Natasha gasping for breath as they opened their eyes and took in their surroundings. They were now in very familiar, yet unfamiliar vessels. But they could feel a sort of pull, magnetizing them toward their original bodies, which laid sprawled on the floor at Peter's feet.

"That was incredible..." Tony exclaimed, still reeling from the experience.

Natasha looked at Peter with a healthy bit of fear and wariness in her eyes. "That was..." She had no words to describe it.

With the rituals completed and the clones successfully integrated with Tony and Natasha's astral forms, Peter took a step back, feeling a surge of satisfaction and a bit of exhaustion. He wiped the sweat from his brow, looking at his handiwork with a mix of relief and pride.

Lily approached her father with a grin, full of admiration. "You did it, Dad! That was so awesome!"

Peter chuckled, ruffling his daughter's hair affectionately. "Thanks, It was my most challenging spell yet."

After moving Tony and Natasha got used to their temporary bodies, it was finally time to head home…

"Alright, that's it, I guess…" Peter announced in a somber tone, as he activated his storage necklace, pulling out the large cube he stole from Doctor Strange. "The spell is done, and everything is ready. Now, we need to proceed with the next part of the plan, which is sending everyone back to their respective universes and timelines."

"Wait!" Lily exclaimed as she held her new slime pet tightly. "What about Venom?"

Peter's eyes widened. "Oh, I almost forgot about that." He muttered.

Peter had been so engrossed in the rituals that he forgot about Venom. He almost activated the cube without thinking, which would have sent The poor blob back to his universe.

Tony and Natasha's original bodies are safe since the cube will only target their souls, which are currently inside the clones, but everyone else would've been sent right back to their home universe.

"Hmm…" Peter hummed in thought as he wondered what to do about the little slime ball.

After a moment of thought, he could only come up with a single solution on such short notice. Venom would have to attach to whichever host he wants to go with them, or else he'll go right back to Tobey's universe. The shared connection should bypass the cubes spell. He would basically be hitching a ride in someone else's body.

Peter quickly explained. "…I guess, you'll have to attach to a host-"

Lily instantly jumped, her arms tightly wrapped around the black blob. "Can I be Venoms host?!" She exclaimed eagerly.

As the room fell into a momentary silence, Peter stared at his daughter. His heart raced with concern, but before he could utter a word, Venom spoke, a sharp teeth mouth forming on the slime.

"I accept your offer," Venom declared, his tone deep and otherworldly.

Lily squealed in excitement, her eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and thrill. She had spent a lot of time with Venom, and was more than delighted with his acceptance.

"Lily, wait!" Peter called out, feeling a wave of apprehension washing over him.

But it was too late. Before he could say anything more, Venom surged forward and engulfed Lily in his black, swirling mass. The symbiote seemed to wrap around her like a cocoon, covering her entire body.
