——————————————

By the time they exited the pizza shop, Betty's boyfriend was nowhere to be seen. She peaked around for him but soon gave up as she knew that the Avengers had kidnapped him.

"Did you drive here?" Peter asked as he gestured to the only car parked outside the shop.

"Y-Yeah, that's mine." She stutters, still shaken up by how quickly Leonard disappeared.

"Good, let's take your car then."

Shaking off her piling emotions, Betty unlocked the car and they soon drove off. The whole car was silent as they made their way out of town and toward Betty's house.

Betty was dealing with the return of a man she loved even to this day and the abduction of her current lover. On top of all of that, her father may not be the man she thought he was.

It's safe to say that she's having a very emotionally conflicting day.

Banner sat in the passenger seat, staring at Betty as she drove the car. He loved this woman and he never forget that love even through the five years that he spent running and hiding from the US government.

Sadly, she was already with another man, which is a bit crushing but it's been 5 years so he can't blame her. Though that doesn't stop the grudge that was forming toward her new lover. After all, he ratted Bruce out to his most hated enemy.

Peter, on the other hand, sat in the backseat quietly listening to Fury on the radio.

"My people in General Ross' circle say that he's currently in New York. His men are gearing up and a plane is being readied for his departure. It will take about 5 hours for him to get here. Give or take." Fury informs everyone.

Based on that time frame, Ross and his army would arrive by the morning.

"Should we send Banner away and stick around to capture the General? I see no reason to allow him free reign anymore." Charles says over the comms next.

Hearing Charles' question, Peter remained silent for a moment.

When it came to Iron Man, Peter allowed Tony to deal with Iron Monger, as it was his debut as a superhero in a way. Tony needed that first bad guy to beat in order to become who he was meant to be.

In this case, the bad guy is a monster that is stronger than the base-level Hulk. The Hulk would have to get pretty angry to beat the powerhouse that is Abomination.

Emil Blonsky would become a terrifying creature, but to Peter's knowledge that hasn't happened yet. He only gains that level of power after this run-in with Banner in Virginia, which means that Peter may have a chance to stop the Abomination before it's made.

'Maybe I should step in this time?' Peter thought.

"Do we have all of the evidence to justify his detainment?" Peter holds his earpiece and speaks, catching the attention of the two in the front seats.

"I have all kinds of damning evidence on Ross going all the back to the 70s to his recent excursion to Brazil." Fury replies.

"Hmm, once we get the data Banner needs, we'll send him to the Avengers Tower and stick around to greet our guests in the morning. Fury, can you get transport ready for our green friend?" Peter says over the comms.

"Will do." Fury reply's curtly, knowing that Peter wants to hide his portal ability from Banner for the time being.

"Are you staying to capture my father?" Betty asks, torn between whether she believes everything she has heard about her father today.

"Yes, he won't be harmed. I promise." Peter tries to comfort her. "He needs to stand trial for his actions, so if you don't believe what we've told you today, then your father can be proven innocent in court."

"..." Betty goes quiet for a moment as her hands grip the steering wheel tightly. "It's not that I don't believe you... It's just hard to think of my father like that."

"..."

-One Hour Later-

After getting a hard drive with all of the data from Betty's house, which ended up being more of a mansion, they returned to the car and headed to a nearby airstrip.

Seeing as Betty was a bit of a wild card, Peter discreetly texted Tony to monitor her phone. Family is important so Peter wasn't sure if she would tip off her father or not.

Thankfully, Betty seemed to be conflicted and that seemed to keep her from making a decision one way or another.

Fury seems to always have a Quinjet close by for personal use, as that's what was waiting for them at the airstrip. Banner would be riding to New York in style.

"I've never seen that before." Betty comments as she's been around the military all her life, yet this jet was something new to her.

"Yeah, it belongs to a friend." Peter says as they park the car and step out.

"Maybe you should come with me, Betty." Banner says as he glances at the jet. "I don't think it's going to be safe here in the morning."

Usually, Banner would push her away, afraid of hurting Betty as the Hulk, but he was currently leaving what may become a war zone.

"..." Betty looks between the jet and Banner before walking forward and embracing her long-lost lover in a tight hug, surprising the man. "I'm sorry, Bruce, but I need to see if my dad is really the man you told me about. I can't just..."

*Chop*

Before Betty could finish what she was saying, Peter karate chopped her in the neck from behind. Instantly, Betty lost consciousness as her whole body went limp.

Thankfully, Banner already had her in his arms, so he supported her before she could collapse onto the cold hard ground.

"What! Why?!" Banner reacted with surprise but slowly anger started to show on his face as he cradled Betty's body.

"She'll be going with you." Peter replies calmly. "She can speak to her father in a safer setting. Not just for her safety but everyone else's as well. I have a feeling that you would get very angry should anything happen to her."

Banner couldn't find a single word to argue back with and soon his anger washed away. He didn't want her staying as well and this solved that problem. Betty would be angry with them when she wakes up, but that can be handled at that time.

"You're right." Banner admits as he looks down at the woman in his arms. "Though you could have been gentler."

"Maybe, now get on the jet. I'll see you at the tower when we're finished here." Peter says and shoos him away.

"I think you're forgetting something..." Banner says as he gestures toward the hard drive in Peter's hand.

"No, I don't think that I did." Peter answers simply, not willing to hand over the data just yet. "You, Bruce, are a man that thinks he's a lone wolf. I have not a single doubt in my mind that you'll go back into hiding upon landing."

Turning around, Peter gets in Betty's car and rolls down the window, holding up the hard drive for Banner to see.

"This will be your incentive to stick around." Peter says as he starts the car. "See you in New York, Bruce."

As Peter drives off, Banner couldn't help but curse Spider-Mans name. The guy had him pegged perfectly though. He planned to get the data and slip away into hiding. Preferably to a less populated area, where he would contact his good friend Mr. Blue for help.

Sadly for him, Peter already knew Banner's character from the movies and wouldn't let that happen.

——————————————

While General Ross was rushing to Virginia on a military plane, Blonsky and Dr. Sterns were in a lab unpacking supplies.

"What's that?" Blonsky asked curiously as he watched Dr. Sterns organize his things.

General Ross had this lab made in New York City after the incident that created the Hulk 5 years ago. Many scientists still work on the Super Soldier Serum here to this very day, but none have come as close to completing it as Banner had.

"This-" Sterns holds up a vial of what appeared to be blood. "-is a blood sample from Banner. I had him send me this a year ago. It took months of persuasion to get him to mail this tiny amount to me."

As Sterns places the sample into a glass fridge for storage, Blonsky watched his every movement, never taking his eyes off of the sample.
