well here we are the final chapter again thank you everybody for the support throughout this story it means a lot especially through a fic this long so thank you.

I know there's a fair handful of people who didn't like the time line alteration concept but it sort of plays a role in the second half ( the story is done in 2 parts because i'm pretty sure doing more then 50 chapters would kill me also again story arc) sorry for any inconvenience.

Midtown high was decorated with banners and congratulatory streamers as the graduating classes stood on the podium camera flashes reflecting off their faces.

"ladies and gentlemen I present to you the midtown graduates of 2014" principal Coulson proudly boasted into the microphone, the crowd erupted into a thunderous applause as the students threw their caps into the air.

"Can you guys believe it we graduated?" Sam cheered throwing his hands in the air "good-bye history, science and every other bull crap subject!"

("Can you guys believe Sam actually graduated? Me neither")

"So what's next for us?" Luke asked resting his arms over Sam and Danny's shoulders, "I mean come on we're the dream team we can't just split up" he said glancing around the circle of his friends/teammates all of whom were wearing the same unsure expression. They didn't know what they were going to do now that high school was over Fury only brought those together as learning experience but that learning period was now over.

"I wouldn't mind coming back…as crowded as New York is, it's kept us on our toes and helped us all grow as individuals and a family" Danny replied.

"D's right this can't be the end of the Nova corp" Sam added

"We were never the Nova Corp!" the others laughed, "kill joys" Sam muttered.

Ava looked through the sea of people scanning for Peter he was over with Aunt May, Ben and Coulson locked in a proud hug from his teary eyed aunt before making his way over to them.

"I would love to come back…after four years and two living arrangements it kind of feels like home" Ava said finally voicing her opinion to the group,

"Well duh your prince charming is here" Sam sarcastically quipped, "Ow!" he yelped. Danny caught a glimpse of Ava's hand swiftly sliding back under her robes with a sinister smile hiding behind her lightly crimsoning cheeks.

"Least Ava got a prince Sam it would take some serious genie juice to make a frog like you handsome"

The team turned round to Peter and Ben who were smiling like a couple of kids in a candy shop "so what's everybody's plan for the future?" Peter asked looking at the lost faces of his friends

"My folks are SHIELD scientist and the tri-carrier is mainly stationed over Manhattan so guess I'm staying" Luke replied.

"I have an obligation to the people of Kun Lun so I must return to them" Danny said.

"Guess I'll go back to the guardians and keep saving the universe" Sam boasted puffing his chest out with pride.

Peter turned to Ava but she wouldn't look back at him "Ava?" he prodded,

"…guess I'll go home resume the duty as white Tiger and protect the jade amulet…unless somebody has another offer" she hinted shooting Peter a quick glance.

Peter & Ben continued to smile even hearing the hesitation in their friend's voices "so this is it, you guys are just going off to do your own thing?" Ben asked.

"What else is there for us to do Ben?" Sam interjected,

"Well providing Sam can manage to maintain a steady grade why not come back next fall and help Fury train his new initiative teams? I mean who better to train the new kids than the original pilot project team? How about it guys go home see your family and friends for a few months and come back…do it all again?" Peter chuckled.

The others looked at him and knew he was serious about this, but the funny thing was it wasn't the web heads worst idea coming back seemed like a good plan they wouldn't have to separate just yet. And as a team they helped each other become better neither of them felt like they had reached their true potential yet "come on guys what do you say?" Peter pleaded.

He watched the others shift and mentally debate his offer much to his dismay, he was hoping for more eager responses. After 4 years together he didn't think they'd want to split up that easily, the team remained silent for another few minutes until Sam spoke up first, "can I be team leader?" he chuckled,

Peter snickered amused at Sam "recruit enough upstarts Sam and you'll have your own team as will the rest of you…we get to sit at the big kids table" he replied.

"I'm in!" Sam cheered,

"Guys?"

Luke smiled "can I get the costume I wore in Latveria?" he leisurely laughed,

"Wait Latveria? When did this happen?" Ava interjected cutting both Peter and Luke off,

"Meh it's in the past" Peter quickly retorted.

Ava went to retort but Luke cut her off in an attempt to void the topic of Latveria "so can I?" he asked.

"Yeah it's yours" Peter laughed, "Danny?"

"The content man can live with his choice but the happy man seeks more choices" he said, leaving the others to blankly stare at him

"….. So yes?"

Danny humbly bowed his head "dude I am so coming back"

"Ava?"

Ava twitted her thumbs for a brief moment before smiling up at Peter "convince me" she replied smartly with a massive smug grin,

But she wasn't prepared for his nonchalant response "well we've never had an argument that I've won so best of luck with your future endeavours" he said taking a step in the opposite direction, "seriously! Could you really walk away from me that easily?" Ava snapped. Peter swung back around wrapping his arms around her waist lifting her up "of course not hell that single step nearly killed me" he laughed.

"But seriously will you come back?" he asked,

Ava shot him a quick smile "of course I will...if you say please" she laughed.

("She's really determined to get the last word in isn't she? Well I invented this game!")

"Well in that case please come back…we'll need a peacekeeper"

"Say it right Parker" Ava ordered.

Luke turned to Danny and Sam rubbing his eyes "they really should just get married and put this petty arguing to bed" he groaned,

"Don't encourage them to put things to "bed" Sam panicked "they're likely to just skip the bed and do it on the lawn"

Ava rounded on Sam with her hands on her hips "we can hear you!" she snapped, Sam raised his hands in surrender and backed away "coming May!" he yelled as he turned and ran. While Ava turned back to Peter "but they have a point this is the last time we'll see each other for a while…so say please Parker!"

"Ha-ha I'm going to miss you Ava" he chuckled,

"Awe damn it!" Ava sighed "you lousy charmer" she mumbled yanking Peter closer to her "next time your saying please" she finished kissing him to shut him up.


The team was gathered on the tri-carrier flight deck with their bags and belongings in tow awaiting their individual rides home, Danny was the first to leave as his elders arrived he fist bumped Sam, Peter and Luke and gave Ava a hug "farewell my friends I shall see you in 4 months' time" he said bowing before parting.

Next came Sam's ride piloted by rocket raccoon "hey kid let's get going before Star lord finds that annoying tape!" Raccoon urged hurriedly waving Sam into the ship, Sam turned the others and picked up his stuff "see you guys soon I guess" Sam sighed likewise fist bumping Peter and Luke and hugging Ava good bye. Despite his best attempt Sam couldn't contain his tears "Parker I'm so calling dips on team leader when I see you again!" he called back. No sooner did the doors close did music start blaring from the ship cockpit "CHERRYBOMB!"

"AAAAWE MAN PLEASE SHUT THAT CRAP OFF!" came Sam and Rockets cries of protest.

Ava turned to Peter taking notice of the bag in his hand "you know part of me really hopes that bag means you're coming with me" she whispered softly tugging on the hem of his coat, Peter coyly smiled at her he did want to go with her but he made an agreement to madam Web for Ava's life and safety he would follow her guidance through his trials and one was compensating for his lost spider sense by finding the master named Shang-Chi.

"believe me Ava I want to but I have something I need to do" he sighed as Ava's jet touched down and she picked up her bags "take care of yourselves boys" she said hugging Luke good-bye. Peter walked her to the boarding ramp "promise you'll call when you can?" she asked avoiding Peter's eyes, as much as being emotional annoyed her she couldn't help it, she loved Peter and the tiger was in complete agreement Peter was her mate which meant being honest with herself and Peter.

"Promise every chance I get" he replied, they stopped at the foot of the ramp "just be careful Peter"

"I'm always careful Ava, I'll see you when you get back….I'll be waiting right here" Peter finished.

Ava walked up the ramp as the door began to close Peter and Luke shrunk in the closing gap "bye Ava" they chorused.

Finally came Peter's jet as Ben and a very eagerly overwhelmed M.j made their way to his side "try to keep the city in one piece guys" he laughed.

"Rest assured web head the cities safe" Luke replied.

"Good luck Peter hope these trials are worth it…that old bat is nuts" Ben laughed.

"Keep Aunt May safe" Peter said.

"Be safe bro" Ben said,

"M.j keep him in line will you?" Peter added, M.j smiled through her veil tears she was saying good bye to her first love, oldest and best friend "bye Pete, you come back you got it? No matter what you come back" she sniffled.

"Bye M.j….Ben"

"Peter"

M.j watched as the two brothers parted and Peter entered his jet "you didn't say good bye?" M.j whimpered.

"Never do" the brothers chorused as the ramp closed and the jet blasted off.

"Reason why?" M.j asked as Ben and Luke turned back to the hanger bay doors,

"Simple when people say good bye it leaves the impression that they'll never see each other again"

"Riley! I have a mission for you!" Fury bellowed, "Shields been monitoring other children with special abilities for some time…initially we wanted Spider-man to head up recruitment but he's preoccupied for the next few months, how about it son think you could handle this?" Fury asked.

Ben stared at the screen with faces and names cloak and dagger, Amadeus Cho and Vulture "I think I can manage" Ben replied.
