After hearing those words come from the speakers above their heads on high ceiling, a chill ran down Madeline's spine. A cold sweat brew as her body went still in shock.

"He found me," she said aloud with a slight shakiness of fear in her voice. Peter turned around so that his back was facing her—body tense and at-ready to protect as he looked up and around. "This was his plan all along, to get us defenseless with no back up."

"He's not gonna take you though," Peter said determinedly and reached into his jean pockets to retrieve his webshooters. He rolled his long sleeves and slapped them on both of his wrists. The tiny capsules immediately wrapped around and clicked in different places to secure themselves.

"You don't have the suit on?" Madeline hastily said and continued to look at the balcony above. She was waiting for any sign of Harry, another voice talking, a shadow, anything at all so she knew where he was.

"Sort of left it in my dorm room. Got webs though- -"
"- -Wait. . .Do you hear that?"

Peter stopped fumbling with his webshooters for a moment and stood still. His brows furrowed but he then heard a slight noise of something buzzing—like the faint sound of a jet in the distance—and it was getting closer.

His senses were alarming him of danger to the right and his head turned in the direction it pointed him to. But all he saw was Maddie, until he saw what was outside.

It did sound like a jet, it did look like a jet. But he was dead wrong.

He saw four green lights through the tall glass windows and the sound got closer and closer.

He then realized it was no jet.

"MOVE!" He warned and grabbed Madeline by her shoulders. She let out a gasp and gripped onto his arms. He almost carried her to the left just as the lights came rumbling through the glass, piercing it into millions of shards.

They both fell onto the tile floor. Glass fell from above and Peter tried his best to cover their heads from any impact. Luckily, none came to. Just the sound of cackling and a roaring engine now inside the lobby's large empty space.

Peter and Maddie looked up from the ground to see Harry several meters above their heads, hovering in the air with his feet planted firmly in a huge piece of machinery that was making him hover in the air. It had moveable parts to make turning sharp and looked put together himself. He had on a bulky, metal, dark suit that made himself look bigger and taller.

"Well, well. It's been awhile, sis," Harry says and chuckles..

They both got themselves up. Peter went in front of the girl immediately and reached in his back pocket from his phone he got from Ned during his Halloween visit.
