Peter freezes Harleys feet the ground. "Sorry harls. I cant hurt anyone anymore." Peter says before he runs off, he can hear Harleys screams in disbelief and anger.

It's a couple hours after the fight. And Peter is waling through the dark and damp forest. Birds are chirping and as he walks his footsteps making squishy noises from the damp ground. The wind is blowing making him feel at ease because the humidity was killing him. He finds a tree and he sits under thinking about the past conversation with the avengers and Harley.

He could still hear Harley's screams in his head, and while he was glad he hadn't hurt him, he couldn't ignore the feeling of guilt and shame he felt as he fled. He knew it was the best thing he could do to keep everyone safe, but part of him felt like a coward for running.

He can feel his body tense at the memory of the experiments he underwent with HYDRA, and he fights to suppress the fear and the voices in his head. He forces himself to relax, and watches the birds fly and the insects in the forest, breathing in the damp and humid air, which brings him some peace. But deep down, he knows it's only temporary. HYDRA won't stop searching for him. He can't go back. He can't hurt anyone. Not again.
