"Sir, it appears that multiple monsters are destroying the city." FRIDAY anonounces.
"FRIDAY tell the others suit up, and tell me what you have on them." Tony calls out.
Peter was already in his suit, mask in hand.
"Peter, where do you think you're going?" Tony asks raising an eyebrow.
"Uhh waiting till we leave." Peter says.
"Peter you don't need to come. This is gonna be easy we can handle it." Tony says looking at Peter.
"Well I'm gonna help anyways." Peter retorts.
"Peter you are not coming." Tony answers with a more demand in his voice.
"Yes I am! I'm the one who protects Queens!" Peter yells anger in his voice.
"Peter Benjamin Parker you are not coming on this mission whether you like it or not. You just hold the the team back! You're just a burden! All you do is cause problems!" Tony screeches.
Peter's eyes widen, along with the rest of the team's eyes. (They just arrived in the room.)
"Now get your ass to your room, and do not come out until we get back." Tony demands.
Peter stomps up the stairs with silent tears running down his face. There was a loud slam from upstairs.
Tony was so frustrated that day he couldn't put up with anyone's BS.
"Tony you didn't need to go that far. Peter just wanted to help." Clint pipes up with a little disappointment in his voice.
Tony didn't listen to him.
"FRIDAY, alert me if Peter leaves his room." Tony says to the AI.
"Starting when."
"Now."
"Mr. Parker has left his room." FRIDAY States.
"What! Where did he go!" Tony says.
"Mr. Parker is heading east near-" FRIDAY says before getting cut off.
"Tony, we need to take down the monsters first before they cause more damage." Steve states.
"Fine." Tony grunts.

To Peter
Peter jumped out his bedroom window and started swinging towards his apartment.
"Peter, are you alright? You seem to be in distress. Would you like me to contact someone?"
"No KAREN. I'm fine." Peter whispers.
After a while Peter arrived at his apartment. It was dark inside.
Peter climbed up the wall and towards his bedroom window, after making sure no one was around. He opened the window and crawled in.
Peter pulled off the suit and tossed it onto his desk. He put on some clothes and began working to take off the tracker, com, and any other ways Tony made to find Peter.
After 2 hours, Peter had everything the way he wanted it to be. He threw off his civil clothes and put the suit back on.
Peter climbed out the window after making sure it was closed and locked.
He began heading his way to a specific house.
Peter was nearing the house.
Once Peter was on the doorstep of the house he knocked.
The door was opened.
"Hey Peter! How are you? Come in." Scott says while pulling Peter in.
Hank was sitting on the couch talking to his daughter. He notices Peter.
"Hello Peter. What brings you here today. I thought you would be fighting the monsters  with the Avengers?"
"Hi Peter." Hope greets.
Peter couldn't hold it. The tears came running down his face.
"Woah! Peter, are you alright?" Scott asks with panic in his voice.
Hopes jumps up from off the couch and walks towards Peter.
"Peter," she says in a quiet tone.
"are you ok?" She asks with worry in her voice.
"T-T-Tony s-s-said I-I-I'm a b-b-burden t-t-to    th-th-the team." Peter admits with hot tears running down his face.
"Oh Peter, honey you are not a burden. Whatever the hell Tony said is not true. You're not a burden to me, Scott, or my dad."
"H-h-he s-s-said t-t-that a-a-all I-I-I d-d-do f-f-for team is c-c-cause problems. A-a-and       th-th-that a-all I-I-I d-d-do is h-ho-hold the       te-te-team ba-ba-back." Peter chokes out with more tears running down his face.
"Peter, Tony is just being an asshat." Scott says with a little anger in his voice.
Peter was like a nephew to Scott. It angered him what Tony has done.
Hank who was quiet through the entire thing, stood up and walked towards Scott.
"Hey Scott, come with me." Hank said standing up.
Scott followed Hank through the hallway.
"Ok? What do you want?"
"So Scott I was thinking,"
"What if we gave Peter the power to shrink as well."
"What! Really!" Scott exclaims nearly forgetting what Tony did.
"Yes, if you agree along with Hope." Hank states.
"Yes! I agree! It would be awesome to have someone who I can shrink with!" Scott yells.
"Ok then, let's tell him."
They walk back to the living room where Hope was still comforting Peter.
"Hey Peter,"
"Y-y-yes." Peter stutters.
"well me, Scott, and Hope agreed on something, and we need your consent."
"W-w-what is it?" Peter asks.
"Well, we want to offer you the power to shrink." Hank says with Scott doing jazz hands in the background.
Hope was smiling fondly at Peter.
His eyes widen.
"Yes! Yes of course!" Peter says smiling.
"Great, well I need to see your suit to make the alterations." Hank says while smiling.
"Ok! Wait. Why did you want me to be able to shrink?"
"Well, we've seen you out on the battlefield and thought you are able to be the next         Ant-Man. Than we thought some more, we knew we can't take away Spider-Man. So we decided to just add to your suit. Like the ability to shrink, the growth and shrinking disks, and being able to communicate with spiders instead of ants." Hank answers.
"I didn't want Cassie out on the battlefield, so I put you on the list first. I trust you Peter." Scott says.
"Ok, let me...... wait I don't have a change of clothes! All my clothes are at the tower. And all my other clothes are at my apartment, and I'm sure the Tony's gonna go there first."
"Peter you can borrow my clothes. They might be a little big on ya." Scott says.
"Ok."
Scott walked out of the room to grab the clothes.
"Peter, you will need to come over for some training. We can't have you running around being able to shrink, without the knowledge of knowing what to do in a situation." Hope says looking at him.
"Ok Ms. Hope. But, when should I start training? I'm with Tony for 2 more months till May gets back from her business trip."
"Peter, I'll call your aunt and say you would rather stay with us then Tony."
"Ok Ms. Hope. You are right about me not wanting to stay with Tony though."
"You don't need to keep calling me Ms. Hope. Hope is fine." Hope says with a comforting smile.
Scott walks back into the room with a T-Shirt and sweat pants in hand.
"Here kiddo!" Scott says.
"Thanks Mr. Scott."
"Peter, just Scott is fine."
"Ok."
Scott tosses the clothes to Peter in a swift moment and Peter catches them.
"Peter the bathroom is down the hall third door on the left." Hope says.
"Ok! Thank you."
Peter walks to the bathroom clothes in hand.
He enters the bathroom and takes the suit off. Something fell onto the bathroom floor.
Peter looks down and his eyes widen. It was his phone. He completely forgot to turn off the tracker.
There was banging coming from the front door.
"Where's Peter I know he's in there?!" It was Tony's voice.
Peter quickly threw the clothes on and sprinted to the living room, just to see Scott and Hope opening the door to an enraged Tony.
"Where the hell is Peter?! I know he's here! I tracked his phone to this place!" Tony yells.
"Mr. Stark-" Hope starts only to be cut off by Tony.
"Don't Mr. Stark me! Now move I need to find Peter!"
"Hey! Don't talk to my girlfriend like that!" Scott yells.
"You can't come in here just waltzing in!" Scott says pointing to Tony.
"EVERYONE STOP YELLING!" Peter screamed out.
Tears were running down his face. Memories from his past were rising.
"Peter, are you alright? Come on let's go back to the to-" Tony was cut off by Peter.
"No! I'm not going back to that tower! After you call me a burden, you expect me to go back to the tower? No! And never speak to Hope like that in her own damn house. It would be best if you were to leave Mr. Stark." Peter says with anger seething in his voice.
"W-w-what Peter? I never called you burden."
"Ha! Now you're lying! You really should just go." Peter says with a serious face.
"Peter-" Tony starts only to be cut off.
"Mr. Stark, it would be best for you to leave before you cause anymore problems. Peter has already said he would rather stay with us then with you." Hank says.
"His aunt says Peter has to stay with me for 2 more months." Tony says with a matter of fact tone.
"Yeah, but it's Peter's choice." Hank retorts.
"Peter, who would you rather stay with." Hank asks.
"I would rather stay with here." Peter mumbles, just barely audible.
"Ok! That settles it. Now if you can leave my house that would be great." Hank says cheerfully.
"Whatever assholes! I'll have my lawyers on your asses!" Tony screams and walks out the door slamming it.
"Well that was something." Scott says.
Peter couldn't breathe, the world was spinning. Mr. Stark hates him now. He'll take the suit. Mr. Stark is disappointed. He can't have a panic attack now. Not now.
"Peter!" Was all he heard before spiraling into darkness.
