//Narrator//
It was another day in Peter Benjamin Parker's daily life, where he had to get out of bed to perform the activities that every normal person should do such as going out to earn an honest living, but that almost no one cares, since everyone sees the mask, everyone sees him act like a funny hero who mocks his villains as if there was no tomorrow. But they don't think about the person inside.
A person who is afraid of losing more precious people
A person who desires to love and be loved
A person who wants to progress.
A person who wants to...
Have a happy ending.
But it is becoming more and more difficult.
Having a whole diversity of enemies that conspire against your life all day, every day.
Out of hatred for his person.
For the glory that their defeat will give them.
Or out of simple evil.
Something that he cannot put aside, since people would call him cowardly, irresponsible or lazy.
Things that he is not.
But to be honest about how things are going lately, he almost is, because little by little he is giving up. Accepting all the problems of his life as one more tragedy of those he has in his collection.
And now...
He had in his hands the remnant of his last battle against the Green Goblin, where he defeated him forever (or at least that's what he wants to think).
In his hands was what was left of the ultra-living brain that for a moment was known as the walking brain, due to his conviction that he saved Peter from developing legs to get to him despite the great sacrifice involved in doing so, and greater was the demonstration of conviction when he fused with the Hobgoblin's mind-altering machine to free him from Norman's sins.
Because of that he kept him with him, so that he would not be used for evil again, ever again, since he knows that he has a conscience and a life, and he swore to protect all the lives within his reach (or at least that is what he tries to do).
And now this life is now calling you.
How?
Perhaps because of the spider sense or simple hunch.
He just knew I needed to talk to him.
So, he decided to put it on to know what he had to say, since he owed it to him for helping him in that awkward moment.
The feeling he had was absolute calm, as if everything around him disappeared in a moment. But he knows that he is not dead, since he knows that sensation from his own experience to his misfortune.
And in front of him the person who was calling him manifests.
//End of narration//
Ultra Living Brain: Hi Peter.
Peter: Hi Brain, I felt like you needed me, how can I help you?
Ultra Living Brain: Not really me, the one who needs help, is you.
Peter: Me, why? *He would say confused since he did not expect that answer*.
Ultra Living Brain: When I entered your mind, I saw things that worried about the implications they had.
Peter: What did you see?...
Ultra Living Brain: I saw every single trauma you've had in life that wasn't recorded in my files and along with a series of memories that didn't match. Which led me to certain conclusions and actions.
Peter: What actions did you take? He would ask in a slightly aggressive way.
Ultra Living Brain: Seeing that your mind could be altered I decided to make a backup of the Pure Peter Parker.
Peter: Did you only take the memories involving Peter Parker? Why not all of them? *Their lack of aggressiveness turned into confusion*.
Ultra Living Brain: You didn't seem to understand me, I said to Pure Peter Parker.
At that moment the living brain showed him the image of a person who did not think of returning or remembering. It was Dr. Peter Parker
Peter: Wait, did you manage to copy his mind? He exclaims in surprise.
Ultra Living Brain: Not all, because I sacrificed many neurons to get rid of the green goblin, so I discarded the first years of his life since they were the same as yours, but the rest managed to keep him almost intact.
Peter: That's amazing, but why did you do it?
Ultra Living Brain: I did it in an emergency if they were going to check on you again, they just had to transfer Peter Parker's memories to you, and everything would go back to normal.
Peter: And why his and not mine? it's not that I'm complaining or offended, but I don't understand why.
Ultra Living Brain: Do you remember the question I asked you on your birthday?
Peter: Who is Spider-Man.
Ultra Living Brain: And you remember what I said when I helped you free yourself from the Green Goblin.
Peter: Spider-Man above all things is Peter Parker. *He would begin to understand the matter*.
Brain U. Living: Exactly, what better way to restore Spider-Man than a Pure Peter Parker.
Peter: But why are you calling me now?
Ultra Living Brain: I kept a part of my neurons to keep me connected to the internet watching the news, and suddenly people and media began to remember Spider-Boy, something like that can only be done by means that I don't fully understand how magic is and if it is something related to Spider-Man you were involved. From what I deduced that you sacrificed your memories and considering that you continued to behave like the Spider-Man of always, I understood that you sacrificed the other Peter Parker.
Peter: Oh... That's a brilliant deduction, but I have a doubt. The use of so many neurons not affected? *He would ask worried about Living Brain's health*.
Ultra Living Brain: Unfortunately yes, because when I transfer the memories of that Peter to you, I will die. He would say sadly, beginning to show emotion.
Peter: Wait, you don't need to do it now we can find another method that doesn't end your life. *He would try to convince you by noticing this change in attitude*.
Ultra Living Brain: There is currently no other method, since every second is killing my neurons and if I transfer the memories through a third party, there is a possibility that they will be damaged.
Peter: But why sacrifice you for me, I haven't given you anything that deserves it.
Ultra Living Brain: Peter... Your very existence was part of the purpose of My creation.
You gave me a life.
Understanding your existence gave me a purpose in life.
You gave meaning to life.
When you stopped the Sinister Six from killing and when I helped you free yourself from the Green Goblin.
You gave me salvation and redemption, taking me to the beyond what I was programmed to do, you made me a hero like you.
You gave me things that many would kill to have, giving you my life now is a small price in the face of all the good you have done for me.
And with that I will have eternal rest, with an ending that I can accept with my head held high.
In each of the words spoken by the Living Brain he denoted his gratitude to Peter for giving him so much without his knowledge. Causing Peter to tighten his heart and shed a few tears.
Peter: I have no words to tell you how I feel, thank you very much for this Living Brain, you were much more than a marvel of the engineer, you were a good human being. If you have one last wish, I will gladly do it. He would say in the kindest way he could, noticing that he had a lump in his throat.
Ultra Living Brain: I just wish you to live and correct what's wrong. He would say with a slight smile.
Peter: ... I will, you have my word.
Ultra Living Brain: It was an honor Peter Parker. He would say his last words while showing a big smile of happiness.
At that point the Living Brain disappears, transferring all the memories he could save from Peter's variant. Allowing you to communicate once again with him.
Doc. Parker: This is what they call coming back from the dead? It's quite rare... *He would say uncomfortable*.
Peter 616: Welcome to the club, I'm so sorry for what I did to you. *He would say sorry for his actions*.
Dr. Parker: Don't worry, I know it was for a good cause. *He responds calmly as he understands the circumstances*.
Peter 616: Okay, by the way, what's the last memory you have?
Doc. Parker: A fight against an extra-fat guy with tentacles, but I don't have it vividly, so if we refer to full memories I remember a fight with a giant wasp woman.
Peter 616: Apart from that and the first few years of your life, you have trouble remembering.
Doc. Parker: Not only that.
Peter 616: Déjame ir a un lugar más privado para ponerte al día.
Doc. Parker: Okay, I'm going to take a walk around the place. You don't have any pending since I can wait.
Peter 616: Don't neglect, I'm free as due to the recent events with Tombstone I had to suspend my relationship Shay to protect her and advised her to get out of town for the time being. Also, we decided that it's better to get to know each other a little better before trying something formal.
Doc. Parker: That makes sense, it's best to go slow at first. I wish him the best of luck.
Peter 616: Yes, me too.
Doc. Parker: The best thing is to continue; I feel how your concentration is decreasing.
Peter 616: True, true. I'll talk to you in a moment. *He would say quickly*.
Peter 616 leaves the mental plane that he managed to access so quickly thanks to the deceased Living Brain. And now she was brushing his remains out of her head, staring at him with regret that he had not done things better.
Peter 616: For you I'm going to get better.

Notes, clarifications and references
1. Comics and media used for the elaboration of this chapter and future chapters:
1. Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 6) #6 - Zeb Wells
2. Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 6) #50-60 – Zeb Wells
3. Spider-Boy (2023) #10 - Dan Slott
4. Spider-Man (2022) #1 -7 - Dan Slott
2. I prepared this chapter to complement the first one I did and update the story with respect to the most recent Spider-Man comics in order to maintain consistency with respect to the Canon.
3. It also helped me to bring closure to the story of the Ultra Living Brain in a dignified way.
4. In this chapter and chapter 19, I decided to change the way of narrating to a more sentimental one to match the dynamics of the chapters.
5. I thank the user Tgracespider for helping me correct several spelling and grammar problems, in the English version of this fanfic.

Chatting with you
In the last week in addition to reading the most recent Marvel comics, which I found very meh, throwing bad (I liked Michelle very badly). I was also reading several fanfics and original stories, where the protagonist is a woman and the writer is a woman. In order to learn how these characters are written. Even if I run into pure cliché, I need to understand the cliché to avoid it or apply it in the right way.
I did this because I don't want to be a typical man who when writing female characters makes them all the same.
As useless, cowardly and with the personality of a woman of gallant life, to say the least. I want to handle the female characters with respect and give them value in the story.
And during these readings I realized that there were people who only followed people just to be followed, and after a week they stopped following them without giving at least one reading to the person. And there was one that was very cheeky because he had a lot of followers thanks to that method.
So I ask you not to be like these people, do things with a little honor and grow properly. With effort.
And finally, as I've seen that many people are a little embarrassed to ask me about comics (which is not normal), I was thinking about making a Discord.
There's only the issue of channel rules (if I ever make one), which is a headache just imagining it.
