" Wade please," Peter begs. His mask had been pulled off to expose the younger man's red and tearful face.

" Why Peter? Why did you do this?" Wade asks, tears falling from his own eyes to be caught in the fabric of his mask where he straddled the young Hero so he couldn't move.

" I didn't. I didn't do any of that I swear. Wade, you have to believe me. They are lying to you. You know I would never do that. I was helping him." Peter cries and manages to get one of his arms free. He reaches out towards his lover but the Mercenary moves out of his reach before forcing the arm back into its place, pinned under his leg.

Wade shakes his head. " No Peter. They told me what you've done. I've seen it, I was right there! Why do you continue to lie to me! Why do you keep trying? I saw you."

Peter shakes his head frantically. " N-no. No you know I never did that. I would never do that. You don't understand." He says trying once again to struggle away without luck.

" They where children Peter," Wade whispers as he reaches his hand towards his own leg.

" What children? I don't understand-" Peter stops, his Hazel eyes following Wade's hand before looking back up at the Deadpool mask with look fear from where he lays pinned under the larger man. " Wade, please! I-"

The Hero's plea is cut short by the ring of a loud gunshot echoing through the air.

Wade stares down at Peter. A bullet wound making the boy's face bloody as the crimson liquid streams out of the new hole in the Spider's head.

" Why Peter?" Wade asks again. " After six years it had to come to this. I thought you loved me. I thought you loved being a hero for your city." He cries, consumed by sadness, guilt, and confusion.

"Why?"

[   Days Earlier   ]

" He's been involved in the experimentation of a new enhancement  on humans. "

" What do you mean?" Wade asks warily.

" Young Parker hasn't worked for Stark industries for over Three years now Mr. Wilson. This is a new organization under the name of Cypress. Much like the Weapon X program. They specialize mainly on the enhancement of humans by working on children." The client says pulling up images on a screen in the dark room.

The screen flashed with multiple images of children screaming in pain as their skin appeared to be burning from the inside out from whatever was inside them glowing with an Erie blue hue.

Wade swallows. ' No. Peter wouldn't do this. He's Spider-Man. He's Peter Parker. He works in a lab owned by Tony Stark. He is young and fresh out of college. He's part of the Avengers. Peter would never do this, these pictures could be from any number of places. Maybe from some other lab that worked on making multiple human torches because apparently, Jonny Storm wasn't enough. '

Deadpool is pulled away from his thoughts as a video starts to play. This time the subject is a teenage boy, maybe fourteen years old strapped to a medical bed. The boy had noticeably light blonde hair. Platinum blonde with odd violet eyes.

Two men walk into the screen where the un-conscience boy lay. One dressed in an expensive suit, hair styled back with glasses, facing away from the camera. The other a young brunette in a white lab coat.

There was no doubt who the soft, disheveled brown hair belonged to. Wade had run his fingers through it thousands of times.

Peter turned to the camera could see his face directly as he started to speak to the man.

" Plasma infusion was a success. Vitals are returning to normal and he shows no signs of rejecting the dosage. This is our most successful test. I'm working on examining more results as to explain why the slight difference worked. I think it has to do with the fact that he has a foreign type of DNA with unknown proteins." Peter pauses, looking at the man who must have spoken. " He's not a mutant no,  he is claimed to be another race altogether and the evidence adds up to make this statement true. He looks human on the outside but inside he is truly amazing. "

Peter continues to speak to the man. Going into fine detail about the boy's anatomy.

[ How would they know something like that without having to-]

" I'm sure you of all people can imagine what the young boy had to go through for such information to be obtained"

( -cut him open )

Wade shivers involuntarily as his memories are forced to resurface, momentarily making him relive through the experimentation done by the Weapon X program. The people, the tools, the death, the pain, the dead pool...

" We need you to take young Parker out. He is the lead scientist in the experiments."

' No this isn't Peter. I would know if he was doing this. I would notice if there was something wrong, something different. He doesn't look at things with that cruel look of a crazed scientist. He looks at things with observation and curiosity.'

" I don't believe your evidence. It's a video that could be anything. Maybe he really is doing this for reasons I yet don't understand. Any of this could be edited in some way. The only thing you have against him his what comes out of your mouth and I'm sure that's not worth a shit." Wade snarls.

" It's proof you want?"

________________________________________________________________________________

The following day after Peter left for work but not before pecking Wade on the cheek good-bye Wade returned to the possible client, or a possible murder victim for so called proof against his lover.

Despite his earlier confidence in Peter's innocence, he couldn't ignore how nervous he was. The night before he had pressed Peter for questions related to what the boy was doing at work but would receive a confused smile and half answers when questions coming onto the topic of the experimentation was brought up.

Wade knew the man was lying about Peter. It was the only logical thought possible.

Sadly logical thoughts were thrown out the window when he was led to watch Peter. Logic is useless when your mind is being played with like a toy. Deadpool was in a trance that's twisted what he's seeing, making him only see what he most feared.

Wade missed all the small details of what he was watching to prove to him he was only just a pawn in a mind game. Too occupied watching Peter emotionlessly cut into someone to see their internal anatomy as they screamed into a muzzle to notice how Peter's eyes weren't quite the right color, or that he was missing that nick on his ear he received in a fight months ago so it looked like he was the owner of a stork bite.

Because of this, that is how Deadpool decided we could indeed need to rid the world of such an evil. Even if it would kill him having to live with such a pain for eternity.

________________________________________________________________________________

Deadpool decided he would Kill Spider-Man instead. So that maybe he wouldn't have to see is love when he killed the monster under the suit. It would be done quietly and private.....

It would have worked fine if Peter hadn't sensed Wade pull out the gun. It would have worked if Peter Hadn't turned around to so innocently ask what he was doing.

Peter had his mask in his hands when he turned to look back at Wade who had been uncharacteristically quiet. Big doe eyes looked back at his lover before down at the gun pointed at him.

" Wade, what are you doing?" Peter asks again much more nervous.

It killed Wade to see Peter's confused and innocent look when he truly knew what kind of monster he was.

Spidey dodged the first bullet as it whizzed by but instead was easily knocked down and pinned by the larger man, first gun clattering to the ground somewhere.

" Wade!" Peter shouts in alarm as he tries to push the man off.

Deadpool ignores Peter's call as he grabs the smaller's small wrists and pins them under his own legs for where he straddles the Spider.

" This isn't funny Wade. Please stop. "

" I'm not being funny Peter," Wade says

Peter stiffens under him. " What are you doing?"

" You tortured those people. How could you do that? I thought you where a Hero Peter. You where New York's Hero. You were my Hero. And then you turned around and spit in our faces as we looked up to you. But of all things, you could have done it had to be the torture, the experimenting?"

" No! What are you talking about?" Peter yells trying to thrash again as tears started to form as he starts to panic.

You know what happens next...

It was the hardest thing Wade had ever done.

________________________________________________________________________________

[  Two days after   ]

" Mr. Wilson. I'm here to talk to you about the Death of Peter Parker," Steven Rodgers says quietly as he walks into the small room.

Wade doesn't look up from the cold surface of the table In front of him.

" Wade I'm truly sorry for your loss. Peter was a great kid. I need your help to see if we can figure out what exactly happened to him. We aren't sure for the reason of his murder.

Wade had made sure to cover himself well. He knew how to commit this crime without getting caught even by the highest intelligent surveillance when he wanted to. It was part of his job after all.

( Peter was the only one who ever truly loved us. Why is he gone? Why did we do this?)

" Was Peter acting oddly or out of character at all before his death?"

" No?"

" Were you aware of any bounties for him?"

" There have always been many bounties for Spider-Man,"

" Yes but we're looking for anything against Peter. Not Spider-Man." Steve says from his spot across the table.

[ Peter is Spider-Man. Why do people never seem to understand that without the broken and beautiful person under the mask there is no Hero. You'd think a fellow Hero would know that much.]

" There was one," Wade says.

The solider is about to say something when someone barges into the room.

" Sir there is a breach in containment!" A particular blonde teen says. Details catch Wade's trained eyes. The hair is a large sign as it seems to reflect the light to make it look almost white. The boy's eyes are a mix of many hues of deep purples with an oddly slitted pupil. He sees patches of the teen's skin seems to noticeable morph as he stands there, turning into thick scales. That's when he notices the huge scaled bat wings connected to the boys back.

'Dear God is that what Peter was turning him into?' Wade mentally questions, the sight of the kid feeling like a knife being twisted into his sternum.

" Vaughn!" Someone snaps pulling the teen away from the door.

" I'm sorry sir." A russet-haired girl about Peter's height says taking the place of the younger teen. Her large wings blocking the view of the other, their dark color seeming to suck the light out of the room. " Sorry for interrupting. There has been little memory improvement, he got lost again." She says her dark and calculating eyes momentarily scanning the Mercenary making him wish he had his mask before she exits the room, pulling the younger with her.

' Did Peter make that too? It was like being in a room with the element of death.'

[ I believe we're quite qualified to know  what that feels like]

" Who was that?"  Wade asks after a moment.

" She's our newest recruit. Been with us almost two years. She's already one of our best combat trainers," Steve shakes his head. " She's extremely dangerous. All I'm allowed to tell you is that she is an assassin with enough skill to surpass Natasha."

" Okay, but what about the other one? What are they?" Wade asks uninterested about who she is if at all.

( She was like sixteen. I'm sure she's not that great. Could easily take her out if it was a challenge worth the time) White says in a depressed tone.

[ You don't know that and would you shut it?]

" Vaughn. He arrived about four months ago. Was in critical condition, close to death. "

( Because of Peter,) White says switching back to the normal tone the box took when bringing up their lost love.

"As for what they are I'm not sure. In short, they are shape-shifters, dragons. Max, the female says they are called Enderings. They are both born naturally. They don't have any traces of human DNA, Decedents of some lost race from Earth's long history according to her. " The soldier sighs. " Vaughn has something wrong with him. Something to do with his blood. His advanced healing seems to be trying to kill him by attacking his own nervous system. Peter was working with Banner and Stark to find a way of curing him, or at least help him cope,"

" Peter was helping him?" Wade asks, horror setting into his stomach.

" The treatment being given to Vaughn was formulated by Peter. The kid used to not to be able to stay conscious longer than a minute because of what was going on inside of him. Thanks to Peter it's now possible that Vaughn could be recruited for training but he still suffers from hallucinations and memory loss. Quite often due to the fact he still hasn't been cured, only momentarily helped... In many ways, his case is similar to yours. I think that's why Peter was so devoted to his work for him. Said he wanted to wait until he saved Vaughn before telling you about it."

Wade stares at Steve as the soldier gives the place where the boy had stood a while ago a blank stare.

" I don't think he will survive without Peter to continue his work. Bruce couldn't understand Peters notes and we can't decode them. Why he had to do that goes over my head."

' No,'

" It was all just a mind game." The witch whispers in his mind.

Now looking back on the memory Wade could see all the imperfections and lies in the ever so convincing proof he had been given.

He'd killed not only his love. But also stripped the teen of a chance at a life Peter had been offering him.

So. Hope you liked it. Please comment your opinions and reviews. Tell me what you think! Thanks for reading.

Max and Vaughn are characters that weren't just made up. They are from an actual story. Hope you liked their appearances.
