Soon enough, everyone in the street took out their phones and started taking pictures and recording the huge spaceships.
Pacing over to Jessica, Loki grabbed her by the arm and pulled her toward the door.
“What?” She asks, not budging a single inch.
“Get inside.” Loki says as he points to the door. “Even with your strength, you can’t fight an entire Kree army.”
Loki didn’t fully understand why he cared so much about her wellbeing, but he would do his best to keep her safe.
Even without his powers.
“What do you mean?” Jessica laughed at his behavior. “The fight already ended. The Avengers won. I’m pretty sure this is them bringing the ships back. How do you not know this?”
“What?” Loki asks in confusion.
Across the street, a store with TVs in its window all changed at the same time. The image of Spider-Man appeared with a similar setting as Ronan behind him showing. Except this time it was the New York City Skyline.
“...” Loki frowned in annoyance as soon as he saw Peter appear on the TV. ‘Insufferable mortal...’
“Hello, everyone. It’s your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man here.” Peter says with a wave. “As you can see, I’ve brought the remaining Kree ships to Earth as I said I would. They’re now Avengers property. Cool, Right?”
Loki couldn’t help but roll his eyes as he followed Jessica and everyone else in the vicinity across the street to get a better look.
“I thought that I would update you on some recent happenings and make an announcement while I’m at it.” Peter says as he leans against the window behind him. “First, after my last press conference, another army of Aliens called the Chitauri arrived and were swiftly dealt with by our new ship's firepower. They were apparently allied with the Kree, who we took these nice ships from.”
Peter pats the metal wall beside him as he mentions the Kree ships.
“Some of you may have put two and two together upon hearing that. Yes, the stuff that fell from the sky recently was the scrap of the destroyed Chitauri ships, which leads me to the announcement that I was talking about.” Peter says as he starts to get a bit more serious. “I’m afraid that we’ll have to confiscate all alien scraps and tech that have fallen to Earth. It’s far too dangerous to be left in humanity's idle hands.”
Instantly, those that had something to gain from the alien scraps went into an uproar. Whether it was CEOs, governments, or the grunts that collected everything for a price, they were all angered.
‘Alien tech?’ Loki thought with an interested smirk.

Drinking his morning coffee, Adrian Toomes was watching TV before it was time to head out to work, though his morning was ruined by the announcement made by Spider-Man.
He stared at the TV in a daze for a moment before rage filled his mind. After all, this clean-up job was a godsend for his failing business. Without it, his business will go right back down the drain.
“Now, I know many people wouldn’t like this, so I’ll give you all a bit of an incentive.” Spider-Man says, drawing Adrian's attention right back to the TV. “Anyone who delivers Chitauri ship scraps to Avengers tower will be paid $1,000 per pound, though, on the other hand, anyone caught harboring any of these scraps will be heavily punished. This is a message to everyone, governments, companies, organizations, and citizens alike.”
“Holy sh*t!” Adrian exclaimed as his grip loosened and his coffee mug fell to the floor.
*shatter*
‘$1,000 a pound is more than 500 times the price of normal scrap metal...’ Adrian calculated in shock.
“Dad, are you okay?!” Liz comes running into the kitchen worriedly.
“Yeah, I have to get to work!” Adrian exclaims as he grabs his car keys and rushes out of the door.
If he wasn’t quick, someone else would take all of the scraps. After all, everyone would be on the hunt for the tiniest amount of Alien just to make a quick buck.
“?” Liz stood in confusion as her father ran off.

“Also, any civilians that suffered property damage from the falling scraps can submit proof to Avengers Tower and we’ll compensate you for your loses,” Peter says and pauses to think for a moment. ”I haven’t heard of any deaths, but if a family member was killed or you were injured, contact us and we’ll be happy to help.”
Although he didn’t feel responsible, as they stopped an entire invasion from causing way more damage and deaths, Peter still didn’t mind lending a hand.
He felt a little bad for letting the aftermath of their battle affect the people of earth, so Peter would use Tony’s money to help them out.
‘I’m such a kind man...’ Peter thought as he wiped an imaginary tear from his cheek.
“Anyway, this concludes your annual alien invasion update. Happy scrap hunting everyone.” Peter says with a wave as Jarvis ends the broadcast, returning everyone’s TVs back to normal. “Alright, let’s go park these bad boys.”
“Yes, sir.” Jarvis replies as the Fleet above New York City shoots off toward the west.
Only minutes after they flew away from New York, Peter's phone started ringing.
“Yo.” Peter answers.
“You just had to show off, didn’t you?” Fury’s annoyed voice says from the other end.
“Well, I have a fleet of alien warships. How can I not parade them around a little?” Peter asks with a smirk.
“Sigh, your stance on the scraps is going to make us a lot of enemies.” Fury changes the subject. “I can already tell you that the World Security Council isn’t happy.”
“I’m sure they aren’t.” Peter says with a laugh. “They lost their power cube thing and now they’re risking the wrath of the strongest group of people in the world by harboring scraps.”
“This isn’t a laughing matter.” Fury says with a disgruntled tone.
“You’re right, but that doesn’t change the facts. Besides, who’s going to do anything about it? We have a fleet of advanced alien warships and a congregation of Earth's mightiest heroes. I doubt they’ll risk anything over some scraps. Especially after we just saved the planet from two separate alien invasions.”
“I disagree.” Fury says resolutely.
“How so?” Peter asks.
“I’ve noticed a lot of off-the-books missions lately. Missions that I haven’t signed off on.” Fury reveals.
“So, Shield is up to something, huh.” Peter says as he instantly thought of Hydra. “Speaking of your leaky ship, have you found any leads to the cancer that has infected your ranks?”
“Why is it that whenever we talk about Shield, it feels like you know something that I don’t?” Fury asks with a no-nonsense tone.
“It’s because I do.” Peter says as he hangs up the phone. ‘That should annoy the hell out of him.’
During what little free time he has, Peter has collected a small amount of evidence on the high-level members of Hydra that have infected Shield.
It wasn’t much, as they didn’t have much of a trail to follow. The ghost laptop may be overpowered when it comes to hacking, but if there’s nothing to find, then it doesn’t matter.
Though it was enough to show their off the book's actions, which were either done to hurt Shield or help those in Hydra.
‘I should probably deal with Shield before they become a problem.’ Peter thought, which is why he started dropping hints to Fury once again. ‘Then we can absorb the remaining Shield agents into the Avengers.’
While Peter was planning the early downfall of Hydra, Jarvis landed the twenty warships in a clearing in the Mojave desert.
“I should probably hide them...” Peter said as he cast a wide range invisibility enchantment on the whole area.
Immediately, the scene of giant towering spaceships was replaced with empty desert land.
‘That should do for now...’ Peter thought.
An enchantment of this level wouldn’t fool any master of the Mystic Arts, but it would do perfectly fine against everyone else which is all he needed at the moment.
Before leaving to the Avengers Tower, where he would have to manage the mass amounts of incoming scrappers, Peter gave Jarvis an order.
“Jarvis, compile all useful information from the Kree databanks and move it over to the Tower, but make sure that only council members can access it.”
“Yes, sir.”
This victory over Thanos’ army is the Earths first real encounter with aliens, so Peter was hoping to get some information for the next encounter. Planets, peoples, empires, technology, etc.
Especially information that wasn’t shown in the movies, as that’s an area that Peter lacks in immensely.
