          Kylie starts breathing heavily as she senses a dark power heading towards them. Stephen looks at her while everyone looks around confused. Objects begin rattling against things. Tony looks at Stephen.

"Say, doc, you wouldn't happen to be moving your hair, would you?" Tony asks.

"Not at the moment, no." Stephen says.

"There's a darkness coming." Kylie says.

"She can sense darkness?" Banner asks.

"Yeah." Stephen says and they stand together as they look towards the front door. Tony leads the group outside to find people screaming and running. They head towards the corner and Kylie's eyes widen in shock as they head around it. They look up to see a space ship.

[Meanwhile]

Kelly sat beside Peter on a school bus. Kelly lays her head on his shoulder as they talked together. The hair on Peter's arm rises up as his Spidey sense, as Kelly called it, activates.

"What the?" Peter asks and Kelly looks at his arm and they look out the window. Kelly places her sunglasses on and she makes them zoom in on what she is looking at. Peter and Kelly nudge Ned to get I attention. He sat in the seat in front of them.

"Ned, hey. I need you to cause a distraction." Peter says and Ned notices the spaceship in the city.

"Holy Shit." Ned says, "We're all gonna die!" He gets everyone to look towards the back. Kelly looks at Peter and she nods.

"Leave it to Ned." Kelly whispers as Peter pulls out his web shooter and mask from his bag. Peter opens the emergency exit window across from them and Kelly climbs out the window after him. She holds onto him while he pulls on his mask. Kelly makes her suit form onto her body and she takes flight. They head away towards the space ship.

"Dad's already on scene!" Kelly says.

"Oh, wonderful." Peter says as he swings while Kelly flies. In the past year, the two had made a pretty good team being close to the ground.

[Meanwhile]

"Friday, evac anyone south of 43rd street and notify first responders!" Tony says.

"Will do!" Friday says.

"Stop right there!" Kylie yells as she activates a spell and she stops the spaceship from advancing.

"Nice shot, Kylie." Stephen says.

"Show off." Tony mumbles and the group walks forward. Two alien looking creatures beam themselves out of the spaceship and onto the ground.

"Hear me and rejoice. You are about to die at the hands of the children of Thanos. Be thankful... that your meaningless lives are now contributing—" Ebony Maw says.

"I'm sorry, Earth is closed today." Tony says, "You better pack it up and get outta here."

"Stonekeeper. Does this chattering animal speak for you?" Ebony Maw asks and Kylie raises an eyebrow in unison with Stephen.

"Certainly not. I speak for myself." Stephen says and he activate a spell as he steps forward. Kylie and Wong do the same.

"You are trespassing on this city and on this planet." Stephen says.

"He means get lost, Squidward!" Tony yells.

"He exhausts me." Ebony Maw says.
