stark, peter parker

xii. whatever that is, it's gonna smell of butt sweat

"who the hell is that?" flash asked when happy walked over to him.

"i gotta get you guys out of here!" he replied, screaming. "get on the jet!"

mj wasn't convinced. "who are you?"

"i work with spider-man, okay?" he announced. "get on that jet."

flash, who loved spider-man, suddenly was interested. "you work for spider-man?"

"i work with spider-man, not for spider-man." happy corrected, visibly offended.

interrupting him, dakota flew to the ground in front of them, just as the jet blew up. "we're gonna need a plan b." she said to happy, looking over her shoulder at the wreckage. "into the tower." she suggested, looking to the students, who were all standing and looking at her in shock.

flash's eyes were nearly bugged out of his head as he saw her. "you're dakota stark." he breathed out, even though he'd already met her years prior at liz's party.

"and you're gonna be dead in the next ten seconds if you don't move." she replied, her suit dematerializing so she could run faster into the museum. "go into the crown jewels vault!" she ordered the students, pausing to let them go in front of her. "the walls are 8 feet thick, it's the safest place."

happy nodded his agreement, but let her wait behind on her own accord, running in with the other students immediately. once in the vault, they were met with a drone. it seemed to look at them, and they all gasped, hiding.

when another drone appeared in the doorway, happy grabbed a shield from one of the knights in the vault, flinging it at the drone to absolutely no avail. "how does cap do that?!" he mumbled under his breath, but kodie heard and laughed, making him hold up a hand to silence her mockery.

the doors closed, and the students all hid around the room, trying to find some sort of weapon to protect themselves.

"happy, say something, to let me know you're alive!" peter said on the comms.

"i'm here. i'm here." he replied. "kodes is with me, too, we have all your friends."

they could practically feel peter's relief on the other side. "i'm trying to get to beck, but i can't shake these drones!"

dakota, meanwhile, remained the only person in the room with armor, and so she stepped casually out into the middle of the room, raising her blaster at the drone (which still hadn't noticed her presence). as the drone moved closer to one of the students, kodie caught motion in the side of her eye as mj hit it with a mace.

"woah, holy shit." kodie said, though her voice made it sound more like a statement than an exclamation. "that was.. woah, impressive, nice job."

mj gave her a thin lipped smile, nodding. "thanks."

three drones slowly approached the students, who were now all huddled together with their makeshift weapons. dakota stood in the center, holding both of her arms up to fire.

"are we gonna die?" ned asked.

"nobody dies on my watch." happy replied solemnly.

ned began to fret, looking out at the oncoming danger. "i wasted my life playing video games, and we're gonna die." he admitted.

"i have a fake ID," betty suddenly exclaimed, "and i've never even used it."

"i post stupid videos daily for people to like me." flash said.

happy then turned to him. "hey, if it wasn't for those stupid videos, spider-man would've never found you."

flash then perked up. "spider-man? spider-man follows me? i saved us, guys!"
