(Peter: POV)
As the police that had arrived with Yuri and Coulson spread out around the area, some of whom I suspected were likely SHIELD and in turn Hydra agents, I stayed right next to Electro.
Just to make sure all my efforts in subduing him just now didn't go to waste.
Since my shit luck would definitely cause that to happen.
Hence my cautiousness.
Moving on.
As Yuri and Coulson reached me I looked at her first. "Lieutenant Watanabe." I said.
"Spider-Man." Yuri replied. "As always, good work."
"Thanks." I replied. Before returning my gaze to Coulson.
One of my favorite MCU characters.
Especially given his actions in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
One of the best movie related television series to ever grace the screen in my opinion.
"And who might you be sir?" I asked him.
"Special agent Phil Coulson." He replied. Extending a hand in my direction.
One which I grasped and then shook. "Nice to meet you special agent Coulson. So, mind telling me why the Men In Black are here tonight?"
"Because the man currently unconscious on the ground behind you just single-handidly caused mass chaos in one of the oldest cities in the United States." Coulson replied.
"And?" I questioned. "I mean this is New York City. Something like this happens every other week. Just ask the Fantastic Four."
"Touche." Coulson replied. "Though my point still stands."
"Then I guess that means you're here to take Max into government custody?" I asked.
"No, actually." Coulson replied. "My orders were to bring in some agents to provide support to local authorities to make sure Mr. Dillon arrives to prison with any issues. But my main mission to come here and establish contact with you. As well as ask if you're open to a meeting."
"Depends on who I'll be meeting with." I replied. "Want to give me a hint?"
"Unfortunately I can't." Coulson replied. "And if you don't agree to the meeting then you won't get any details at all."
"I see." I replied. "Can I have some time to think about it?"
"Of course." Coulson replied. He then removed a card from his pocket and handed it to me. "If you want to agree to the meeting just call the number on that card."
"Will do." I replied.
Coulson and I then stopped the chatter and focused all our attention on dealing with Max.
From making sure he safely reached prison, to also making sure he was safely contained.
Once this was done I split off from the authorities and found a quiet rooftop where I quickly used the HUD of my suit to analyze the card Coulson gave me to make sure it didn't have any hidden surprises.
When I got confirmation there were none I stored the card in my suit, then had Spinner and the Spider-Bots make sure I wasn't being tailed by SHIELD, or anyone else for that matter.
Then once I again got the all clear I contacted Gwen and we met up on a rooftop.
The second after we did she walked up to me and pulled me into a hug.
Feeling her shaking I gently wrapped my arms around her.
"Looks like you beat Electro." She stated.
"I did." I replied. "Now then, what happened?" I asked.
For I could instantly tell Gwen wasn't acting like herself.
Upon hearing my question she looked up at me.
"There was a man. He had a pacemaker but it malfunctioned. I worked to get him to the hospital, but...I couldn't get him there in time." Gwen revealed.
Leading me to embrace her just a bit more tightly.
"Ghost-Spider, it wasn't your fault." I said. "It just happened. I'm sorry but that's the truth. You did all you could and it wasn't enough. But that's the risk we take and burden we bare when we wear these masks."
"I know that... it's just..." Gwen trailed off.
"I know. Believe me, I do." I replied.
"Spider-Man... I've decided. I want to take up that offer we were given." Gwen spoke.
Referring to the Ancient One offer to instruct us in magic.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yes." Gwen replied instantly. "Because tonight showed me I'm truly lacking. That's why I want to get stronger. So next time I can make a difference."
"And that my dear Ghost-Spider is why you are a good hero." I told her.
"Well, you're not too bad yourself." Gwen replied.
"Why thank you." I said. "But on a more serious note, we have to be careful. Because I want power too, but you know the old saying absolute power corrupts. So let's make sure that doesn't happen to us."
"Of course." Gwen replied.
"Good. Also on another note I got another offer earlier. But let's talk about that later."
"Okay." Gwen agreed.
Once she did the two of us then broke our hug and then sprung back into action.
Doing all we could to help in the aftermath of Dillon's actions.
Until eventually we both knew we had to stop and return home.
Which is exactly what we did.
May basically tackling me to the ground the second I walled through the door like always.
But that's just her, so I let it be.
Moving on.
Getting up the next morning I took a day of rest.
Given school had been cancelled due to last night's events.
Then the following day, when everything went relatively back to normal, I met back up with Gwen at the Web and told her about the request I got from Coulson for a meeting.
One she agreed I should take.
So with that I called Coulson and arranged the meeting.
Then in no time at all the day of it came.

Landing atop the roof of an abandoned building I folded my arms behind my head.
Waiting for the figures in the shadows to step out, since I had already clocked them using my HUD.
A few seconds later they did.
The figures being my man Coulson, surprisingly Melinda May, and finally none other than the current director of S.H.I.E.L.D. himself Nicholas "motherfucker" Fury.

"Coulson." I replied to the man.
I then turned my attention to May and Fury. "Ms. government agent, modern day black pirate. Nice to meet you both." I said.
Smiling under my mask as Fury looked at me with wide eyes when I spoke to him.
"Motherfucker, what?!" He shouted.
His words music to my ears.
Never change Fury, never change.
