3rd Person POV:

Peter rips the bag out of Vulture's talons. He falls through the portal back into the truck. The portal cube is thrown off position by Peter's movement. He immediately jumps up to get out but slams his head on the now solid roof. Peter loses consciousness

Time seems to have passed, and Peter lies motionless on the floor of the trailer. The truck shakes to a stop, waking Peter up

Peter's POV:

"Oh, my head." I groaned

     "You appear to have a mild concussion." Says Suit Lady. I stand up with a hand on my head and a huge headache

     "Hey, so where am I right now?" I looked around but had no idea where I was

     "I'm not sure. The container walls are hindering my sensors." Suit Lady informs me

"Wait a minute. They must have hijacked the truck and taken me to their evil lair. Okay, suit lady. We're gonna have to fight our way out of this one." I prepare myself to burst through the trailer doors, ready to fight whoever gets in my way

     "Three, two, one!" I smash through the doors but find myself in a huge warehouse full of containers. I look around, on guard

     "What is this place? Suit lady, where am I?" I said to my A.I.

     "You're in the most secure facility on the Eastern Seaboard. The Damage Control Deep Storage Vault." She explains

     "No. Seriously?" I panicked. I put both my hands on my head in shock. On the wall in front of me, "DODC-V05" is written in big black letters. I jumped to the giant horizontal closed doors and try to wedge them open

     "The door will most likely remain closed until morning." Suit Lady tells me. I jumped down and kicked the bottom of the doors

     After some time, I made a hammock out of my webs and lied in it

     "Hey, suit lady, I kind of feel bad calling you "suit lady," you know? I think I should probably give you a name." I tried thinking of a name

     "Like Liz? No, no, no. God, that's... you're weird, Peter. You have a boyfriend!" I quickly corrected myself, embarrassed

     I continued to go through names, swinging with one hand on a rope made out of my webs

     "What about Karen?" I suggested to Suit Lady

     "You can call me Karen if you would like." She says

     "Karen it is!" I said excitingly

~~~

     More time has passed. Karen and I are running the refresher course she suggested I do earlier in the middle of a web mishap. There were so many cool combinations

     Eventually I ended up on top of a container, talking to Karen like she was my therapist

     "Should I tell Liz that I'm Spider-Man?" I ask Karen

     "Who is Liz?" She replies, confused

     "Who is Liz? She's.. heh. She's the best. She's awesome. She, uh, she's just a girl who goes to my school." I confessed to the A.I.. Why am I telling this to an A.I.?

     "Sounds like you have a crush on her." Karen teased

     "But I have a boyfriend! We've been together for a year!" I exclaimed to Karen, trying to persuade myself from the topic of Liz
