(Peter Parker sits in his dorm, deep in thought. His brain is in a mixed pot of doubt, concern, anxiety, and desperation. He looks to his right, grabs a suitcase, and opens it: empty. That's usually where he puts his Spidey suit, but he sent it to Tony the day before.)

(We are now at the nearest pier in New York and find ourselves at a specific area: the boat that the unknown number described.
Spider-Man lands on the pier, but sporting a homemade, do-it-yourself suit. The suit that he used before Civil War happened.)

SPIDEY: "Ok Spider-Man...you got this."

(He hesitantly walks onto the ship and opens the door that leads inside: unlocked

(He hesitantly walks onto the ship and opens the door that leads inside: unlocked. He tries to rely on his spider-senses, but nothing seems to be off. He keeps walking to find stairs that lead to the basement that the text mentioned.)

SPIDEY: "FRIDAY, scan for any secret or hidden staircases, please."

(Silence...)

SPIDEY: "Ohhhhhh, right. Wrong suit." (He looks around.) Jeez, they must've hidden these stairs well cause I have no idea where it i-"

(Spidey is walking around when he stumbles. He looks down at his feet and finds a distinguishable staircase leading downstairs, not even a little bit hidden.)

SPIDEY: (sarcastically) "Maybe that would be what I'm looking for..."

(He walks down the stairs to find a dark room; however, the hairs on his arms rise, giving him a feeling of uneasiness. The room seems to be underwater; almost like a lair.
Suddenly, the lights abruptly come on, revealing The Chameleon, standing with his troops.)

CHAMELEON: "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

CHAMELEON: "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man...quite the reputation you've built yourself, Mr. Parker."

SPIDEY: "I had a hunch that you sent that text."

CHAMELEON: "So that begs the question: why'd you come? What if you just walked into a trap?"

SPIDEY: "Honestly...I'm at the end of my ropes here...look, what do you want?"

CHAMELEON: "Oh, come on. You don't get to have all the fun, what with all your quips and such. You've got to earn this..."

(He takes out a vial from a pouch on his waist. The vial holds a dark purple liquid that glimmers in the light.)
