THEY REACHED THE final phase of training, which was a stealth incursion. Y/N was currently hidden with a plane that was flying over the state of New York.
Hank explained earlier that day that they needed to retrieve a prototype of a signal decoy, which was a device he invented during his days at S.H.I.E.L.D. Hope added that it was essential in counteracting the transmission blockers that Cross installed in the Futures vault.
It was currently collecting dust in one of Howard Stark's old storage facilities. Y/N believed it could be a piece of cake.
"God, it's freezing!" A shrunken Y/N exclaimed from within a panel outside the plane. "You couldn't make a suit with a flannel lining?"
Hank and Hope ignored his complaint and communicated with him through the comms.
"You're over the target area. Disengage now!"
Y/N turned around and commanded the hundreds of carpenter ants behind him.
"Squadron A, go! B, go! C, go!"
They all flew out of the plane. He went up to Antony and mounted the insect.
"All right, Antony, please don't drop me this time."
They immediately flew out of the plane. Y/N held on for dear life as they descended.
"Oh, it feels like a big leap from sugar cubes to this!"
"Stay calm."
Y/N flew on Antony and was in formation with the rest of the ants. He gazed through the clouds at the storage facility...and quickly noticed something that made his heart jump.
"Hank...didn't you say this was some old warehouse?"
The clouds dissipated as they got closer. A large "A" was on the rooftop, marking one of the buildings at the Avengers' Facility.

"It's not!" Y/N exclaimed. "The frickin' Avengers live here!"
"Y/N, get out of there." Hope spoke.
"Abort! Abort now!" Hank exclaimed.
Y/N continued flying down toward the building with his ant army.
"No, it's okay. It looks like no one's home." He replied. "Antony, get me to the roof!"
Back at the lab, Hank let out an exhale. "He's gonna lose the suit."
Hope turned to him, her worries were not of the suit but of the boy.
"He's gonna lose his life."
Y/N made it to the rooftop and dove off of Antony. He landed on the rough floor.
"All right, I'm on the roof of the target building." Y/N informed them.
Hope saw a shadow fly by on the live feed from one of the ants. Y/N was still oblivious to it.
