SPIDOC entered the palace, all around them was a room composed of pinkish jewels. Around them were more guys in suits working with...bug people. "Welcome to the Crystal Palace. There is a fancier name but I am not Reed Richards. I can speak like a normal person and still show off my brains." He said as he floated towards a hallway. "Come with me, I need to introduce you to the Exiles before I suit you up. It would be good of you to meet who runs the joint."
As they traveled they would notice the bugs looking at Carl and chatting. "Do not mind them. They are aware of who you are, wondering if they messed up your timeline. Short answer is no. Long answer, your reality was a rare visitation where they did not mess with anything of note."
They soon came to a room occupied by two women. One a pink skinned elf like girl in green, the other an Atlantean. "Oh crap, Namora stayed." SPIDOC turned. "Watch your mouth around her. She is...kind of Namor, kind of his sister. Long story. Basically what is he was pureblood...and a woman. Kind of a bitch..."
"Who can hear you."
SPIDOC gulped. "HEEEEEY...Namora. Hello."
"Nice save SPIDOC. Down Namora...you are kind of bitchy, he's not wrong." Blink turned. "Talked Carl into joining huh?"
"I told you I could." SPIDOC flew towards them. "This is Blink, the leader of the Exiles and the boss around here. The 40 year old Me is her contemporary. And I introduced Namora. Did I mention she wiped out humankind and made her Earth a mutant utopia?"
"It was a war, us or them and they started it. I ended it." Namora scoffed.
"Guys...stop." Blink said.

"Nice to meet you both." said Carl as he bowed his head. "And yes... SPIDOC is quite convincing. He managed to talk me into joining this outfit. If I can be of any service, just name it." He then looked around with awe. He had never seen a place like this. "Wow... this place is impressive. I've never seen anything like this." said Carl as he looked around. "You guys have almost everything here."

"Outfit is a fitting term...get it?" SPIDOC said as he reached out mentally. "I made a suit, planning on winning you over with that if need be. One based, admittedly, on a common design Tony works with...but one I made less him and more our. Well three really. I will let you pick." Three images popped onto the screens. "Each one does different things. Pick the one you want and I will explain it, or ones. Just...not much of a time waster. Sorry...action is my reward for this...so to speak." SPIDOC snickered.

Carl looked at the three suits. "Hmmmmm... these three suits look pretty great." said Carl as he looked at the suits. He then pointed at the one he liked most. "I liked this last one." said Carl, picking the third suit. "I like the extra black it has, and I like the look of the eyes." He then looked at SPIDOC. "Still, I'm kinda curious as to what these other two do." said Carl.

"I aim to offer them to Jameson and Peter Parker, so wait to see what they do with them." SPIDOC said to them. "Anything to get my over the Hill Counterpart to take off those damn sweatpants. He makes us look bad."
Blink laughed. "Sorry, but your honesty is funny."
"Anyways...your pick is the classic look updated to be more of a lightweight armor. While none of my work matches the alien technology of Takuya's, it is enough to stop common knives and small arms fire. Optics come with night vision and telescopic lenses. You can summon a drone I was forced to name Spider-Bro...a reminder not to ask said older Me for names ever again...that can track and contain foes with a built in web shooter, energy stun shots, or even a sonic emitter for symbiotes. Your lenses can allow you to see through it's eyes if you do not set it to automated back up mode." SPIDOC turned. "It also gives you moves and power levels akin to your base self, once we give you your powers back, your physical feats will be doubled."

"It also gives you moves and power levels akin to your base self, once we give you your powers back, your physical feats will be doubled." "Holy fuckin' shit!!! Now that sounds pretty rad." said Carl. "A drone, a bulletproof armor, power booster and night vision and telescopic optics..." Carl was amazed. "Goddamn... this really makes my previous suit feel like a childish Halloween costume." said Carl. "I must admit, Spider-Bro is a corny name, but it fits the drone's purpose well." He then thinks about something. "You know... Peter always uses that electronic beeper thingy he built in order to follow crooks with his spider-tracer... and even though it's a good idea, I think I could implement it into the suit..." said Carl. "Maybe as a visual GPS that appears in the optics whenever you are tracking someone. Or-" Suddenly, something falls out of Carl's pocket. It was an engagement ring. He looks at it and grabs it. He remembers Judy, the girl who helped him cope with his grief over losing Julie Masters. This was a grim reminder that he would never be able to have a woman again. He just felt so helpless. He then looks at SPIDOC and the others, losing his confidence once again. "I... I... I'm sorry... I... I just have a lot to think about." said Carl sadly. He didn't understand how Peter managed to stay alive after Gwen's death. Carl had become suicidal after he lost Julie, and once again, when he and Judy were separated. Why did he still feel so empty and worthless on the inside? The capture of Carol Danvers had also started bothering him. He seemed to have developed some feelings for her as well during their time together at Ravencroft, but her heart seemed to belong to Mar-Vell, and that gave Carl an even bigger sense of loneliness and abandonment.

"Fuck fuck fuck FUCK!!!" Blink said as she saw the ship. "Ok Namora, get to New York. SPIDOC, get Takuya back to The Marveller now. I have to get Longshot." Blink then began to check for him. "Where are you Longshot?"

"Where are you Longshot?" Carl was sadly walking around the hall when he saw a report of the destruction of Colorado. Suddenly, he clutched his head. "Goddamn... this is too much." thought Carl. "But no... I don't want my powers back... I'm finally free of them... but what happens if all my friends die and I am powerless to do anything?" He was conflicted. He didn't know what to do.

Carl then angrily walked back and grabbed a time-dilation portal.
"Fuck it... I'm gonna help... powers or no powers." said Carl with anger.
He then walked through the portal and went to the Sky Ship.
(Carl's part continued in "The Battle for New York")
