When help arrived, the Parker family was helped off the roof and the twins were checked up on by paramedics. But, not to Peter or Lois's surprise, there wasn't anything wrong with them. There wasn't even a cut on them after they were discovered.
"All we have is mild concussions?" Mayday asked in shock. "That big fall, and not even a broken bone?"
"Let's just be thankful," Peter stated as he caressed her head. "You both got very lucky."
"A little rest, then you should be fine." The parametric tells them.
"Thank you." Peter sighed as they took their leave.
"Come on, girls. Let's get in the car. You've had a long day." Lois told the girls, who agreed and walked to the car.
Peter saw mostly everyone left, but a handful of people stayed to help the girls. Lois lets him have a few more moments to say goodbye to his friends. Walking over, he saw Charles was waiting and seemed he could hear his thoughts.
"You know what I'm thinking. Literally." Peter told the professor. "Go ahead."
"Thinking they might have powers?" Charles asked.
"Can you...read anything from them?" Peter asked him, looking at his daughters.
Charles knew he couldn't exactly read if they had powers, but he did a quick look into their heads. After a moment of looking into the girls, his eyes closed for a brief moment, he opened them up and looked at Peter.
"If they do, they are not aware," Charles reported to Peter. "But they are scared. I think they need their father."
Peter nodded and assured Charles he already knew that. "Yeah."
"Well, we gotta get heading back," Logan said as he called over their ride. "See ya, Peter."
"Thanks for coming," Peter said as Logan held out a letter. "What's this?"
"From your aunt. Told me to hold onto it for when this happened." Logan explained as Peter took it and the two of them walked off. "Oh, she also left a package for you, I'll have it ready for you in the morning. Come by the mansion."
"Thanks," Peter told him, watching as the mutant walked off.
"We gotta head back, too," Susan said as she and Reed started to walk off. "Gotta go relieve the babysitter."
"A heads up, Pete," Reed warned him as he came up. "Fury's here."
Peter looked down at the corner of the sidewalk and saw the said man standing there. "Thanks for the heads up."
Then he walked over and stood beside Fury as he just stood there and stared out into the open. His coat was blowing in the wind, yet nothing was happening to Peter. It was like even the weather was making his entrance dramatic.
"I came by to give my condolences. Same as everyone else." Fury informs Peter.
"Nick Fury, giving condolences?" Peter asked with a scoff. "Now I have seen it all."
"Despite popular opinion, I do have a heart." Fury replied with an angered tone. "And I heard you heard the news."
"Goblin's back," Peter confirmed he knew.
"Or most likely some imposter pretending to be him." Fury replies.
While the two talked, Mayday and April watched as the two talked with Lois saying goodbye to Susan with Peter and Fury still talking. They watched their parents and wondered what they weren't being told. Something didn't feel right to either of them as they were now wondering what their mother and father are keeping from them.
