"Because those beasts that turned you into such beasts didn't teach you how to stop!" Peter retorted almost growling, "It's them who are wrong! Not you!"
Tyrone raised his head and looked at Peter with a desperate and self-deprecating look. "Why do you have to excuse me? Don't I deserve to die in your eyes?"
Peter's voice trembled violently. "Because... if you are a monster, then this world... there will no longer be a place for people like us. Tyrone, I am not saying that you are innocent, but... you should at least get a chance to atone for your sins!"
Tyrone looked at him, a warm smile appeared in his desperate eyes, "You are such a good person... It's a pity that in another world, we might be friends."
The sense of crisis hit Peter's heart instantly!
"Be careful!"
Peter pulled Tandy and retreated several meters. A giant claw of shadow that covered the sky scraped the tip of their noses and smashed down, shattering the ground.
"Tandy, hold me tight!" Peter threw out Wand of Watoomb again, with the light of Tandy attached, cutting off the approaching black air in the air.
Tyrone, who was standing not far away, shouted with all his strength, "Girl! You can do it! Your power... is the same as mine, but it is my nemesis! Please... stop me before I kill more people!!"
"No! Tyrone! There is still help! Let me help you!" Peter shouted loudly.
However, the entire dimension suddenly became violently turbulent. The huge darkness turned into a giant hand that covered the sky, and instantly grasped Peter and Tandy in the palm of their hands and pulled them up in the air.
"Please... I don't want to die a monster..."
Tyrone's last voice echoed in the void. The next moment, the giant hand violently threw the two of them towards the crack in the sky!
White light suddenly appeared.
The dazzling sunlight fell on their faces, and the two fell out of the tumbling Cloak and fell on the grass of Central Park in embarrassment.
Peter turned over and stood up. Not far away, Tyrone's body had been completely occupied by black energy that was so rich that it was virtually invisible.
"Light! Food! I want to eat!"
The violent black shadow let out an inhuman roar and rushed towards the two of them!
Peter jumped up in the air and tore at the black air with his sharp claws, but without the blessing of Tandy's light, the claw blade directly penetrated the shadow. Tyrone, who was running wild, grabbed Peter's throat with his backhand and violently threw him away!
Boom!
Peter hit a big tree hard, sawdust flying, and the whole person fell to the ground as if losing all strength.
He raised his head with difficulty and saw the violent black tide rushing towards Tandy who was lying on the ground.
"No!!" Peter's eyes were about to burst.
But just a second before the darkness was about to swallow Tandy, the panic in Tandy's eyes suddenly faded away completely.
Instead, there was iron will, hysterical anger, and... deep sadness.
The dazzling holy light burst out from her body!
Several daggers condensed from pure light shot out of the air, with a sharp roaring sound, and penetrated Tyrone's chest!
The black air dissipated instantly like a tide.
Tyrone was shaken, staggered back two steps, fell heavily on his back, and a mouthful of black-red blood spurted out.
"No..."
Peter let out a painful whimper, rushed to his side and hugged his head on his knees. "Hold on! Brother, hold on! I will find a way to stabilize your injury!"
Peter was just about to draw the stagnation circle when a bloody hand suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly.
"Don't... don't bother..." Tyrone coughed violently, blood stained Cloak, "This... is good... I finally... don't have to be a monster anymore..."
He turned his head with difficulty and looked at Tandy who was walking forward. The corner of his mouth raised the most frank smile from beginning to end, "Thank you... thank you. What is your name?"
The girl who was shy and stuttered in daily conversations, but her voice was as hard as iron at this moment. "Tandy. Tandy·Boun."
She squatted down and gently held Tyrone's cold hand. "I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..."
"No... you saved me..." Tyrone's smile became brighter, "In this way... I will be free... Tandy Bowen... I am so happy. The last scene I saw in this world... is such a beautiful thing..."
Before he finished speaking, Tyrone's hand slipped down weakly.
The black air completely dissipated, and the strange Cloak turned back into an ordinary and worn white sheet.
Tandy lowered his head and tears fell quietly.
And Peter stared blankly at the lifeless boy on his knees, and he was instantly overwhelmed by huge fear and despair.
All of this... is his fault.
If he had not come forward to save Tandy that night, Tandy would not have moved to his house and would not have been involved in the extraordinary world in advance. She would have continued to wander and then met Tyrone. They would have been arrested together, Awaken together and become each other's only salvation and reliance in this cruel world. The light of Tandy will suppress the hunger of Tyrone, and Tyrone will protect the safety of Tandy.
But just because of his clever intervention, he saved one person, but destroyed another, and even indirectly killed fifteen other innocent lives!
Why is this happening?
He changed the fate of Tandy, but pushed Tyrone into Hell.
"Peter?" Tandy called softly, "Are you okay?"
Peter raised his head and looked at the trembling girl in front of him.
He knew that he had no right to blame her. She had just killed a person who had a chance to be saved, but she had no choice at the time. She was not a superhero, she was just a frightened child.
"I'm fine, Tandy..." Peter took a deep breath and covered Tyrone's face with a sheet, "I'm sorry... we couldn't save him."
"What should we do now?" she asked blankly.
Peter looked at her. The memory of "Cloak and Dagger" kept flashing back in his mind. In the comics, they were a pair of life-and-death partners who worked together to fight drugs and crime. They were a legendary combination of heroes.
But now, there is only one left.
"First, I need to handle Tyrone properly." Peter reached out and closed Tyrone's eyes, "Then... you need to learn to control your own power. Sassy, call the police."
Tandy was stunned for a moment. "Who are you talking to?"
"My AI assistant is called Sassy."
The call was quickly connected, and the operator's voice came. "911 Emergency Center, what's the emergency?"
"I am Spider-Man." Peter said in a deep voice, "Central Park A serious accident occurred. An African-American United States boy died and a white girl was injured. Please send an ambulance and police car over immediately."
The operator's tone suddenly became extremely harsh. "Sir, this is an emergency line! If you are playing a prank, please stop!"
