Maya Stark

Chapter 107: Peter almost kills us

'I'm telling you, Parker,' I said. 'We are going to Prague one way or another. Fury has probably already set something up. He always does.'

'Maya, let's just relax and enjoy Paris, okay?' Peter said. 'I'm sure Mr. Fury will respect our wishes.'

'And I'm sure your delusional,' I mumble as he walks ahead of me towards Ned. I follow him.

'Hey, man,' Peter said. 'Are you sure you're good?' Apparently, Fury shot Ned with a tranquilizer.

'Oh, dude. I'm fine,' Ned said.

'Okay,' Peter said, unsure.

'Seriously, getting tranq'd in the neck by Nick Fury, probably the coolest thing to ever happen to me anyway,' Ned said.

'It's pretty awesome,' Peter said.

'Yeah,' Ned said.

They do their stupid little handshake that I've seen enough time I could probably do it. And then I annoyedly give Ned a fist pump. It was the most he's gotten out of me and each time he nods like he's accomplished something.

'I'm just happy we don't have to go to Prague,' Peter said.

'Seriously,' said Ned.

'Good news!' Mr. Harrington said exciting the hotel. 'We're going to Prague!'

'What?' Peter asked.

'Prague?' a bunch of students asked.

'Yeah, tour company called. They upgraded us. You should've heard me on the phone with them I really gave them hell.'

Peter gave me a side look as we followed everyone else to where a black bus was parked. Dimitri was holding a sigh that says Midtown High.

'Wha—what's going on?' Ned asked.

I sigh. 'Nick Fury just hijacked out summer vacation.'

'Awesome,' Ned said moving to get on the bus.

I look at Peter. 'I'd say I told you so, but you don't seem to be in the mood.'

Peter gives me a glare. 'I hate it when you're right.'

I smirk at him as I make my way to the bus. I hear him mumble something before following me. I sit next to MJ and Brad sat behind us, much to our disliking. I had whispered to MJ that Peter knows she knows when I sat down so nobody could hear us and she nods. We spent most of the first part of the trip talking about nothing in particular and reading. I had trouble focusing worrying about Fury and Beck. I had told Beck later last night that Peter had the glasses.

Eventually the bus pulls up to a rest stop. We all got off the bus me and MJ staying nearby talking about nothing in particular. When Peter got off the bus Dimitri stopped him and pointed to a building. I shrugged it off. Spider-Man stuff probably. We were there for ten minutes before getting back on the bus. MJ and I keep reading. We aren't the most talkative friends apparently.

I never looked up until I heard someone say, 'Did you just punch Flash?'

I look up to see Peter standing up at the front of the bus with the EDITH glasses on. I put everything together quickly. How does he mess shit like this up so quickly anyway?

'No,' Peter says.

I watch Peter shoot a web at the wheel and the bus swerves. Kids scream and I grab onto the seat in front of me to keep from falling. I also notice the drone that is now following us. I mentally curse out Peter.
