Once the chamber doors close Peter and I find a way into the ship and start to sneak around. As we do we find Stark, who is aiming at the cloak, "Wow, you're a seriously loyal piece of outerwear, aren't you?"

Peter lowers himself, "yeah, uh, speaking of loyalty."

Stark and the cloak turn to face Peter, who drops from above them, landing on his feet. "What the..."

"I know what you're gonna say."

"You should not be here."

"I was gonna go home."

"I don't wanna hear it."

"But it was such a long way down and I just thought about you on the way..."

"And now I gotta hear it."

"And we kinda stuck to the side of the ship."

"We?" Stark looks around and calls out quietly so he doesn't alert the alien that we are here, "Gwen! You'd better not be here too."

I jump down, quietly as my mask comes off, "sorry."

Peter shakes his head, "these suits are ridiculously intuitive, by the way, so if anything, it's kinda your fault that we're here."

Even the Cloak looks between Stark and Peter shooked. Stark cocks his head to a side, "What did you just say?"

"I take that back, but now we're here in space."

"Yeah." Stark crosses to stand in front of Peter. "Right where I don't want you two to be. This isn't Coney Island. This isn't a field trip. It's a one-way ticket. You hear me? Don't pretend like you two could not have possibly thought this through."

"No, we did think it through."

"You two could not have possibly thought this through."

"It's just..." Peter takes a deep breath, "We can't be your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man and Spider-Woman if there's no neighborhood."

Stark shakes his head and I step forward, "That didn't really make any sense, but you know what he's trying to say."

Stark nods, "okay, come on. We got a situation." He leads the two of us over to a viewpoint on the torture below, the alien putting what looks like crystals in the wizard. Peter and I crouch down to study the situation. "See him down there? He's in trouble. What's your plan? Go."

"Umm. okay, okay, uhh.." Peter pops back upright. "Okay did you ever see this really old movie, Aliens?"

"What?" Stark asks as I stand.

"Yeah, I think he's onto something." I look from Stark to Peter, "If we can blow a hole in the side of the ship, it will suck the alien out..."

Peter continues my thought, "one of us can grab the wizard before he gets sucked out and you can seal it, Mr. Stark."

Stark nods, "That's actually a good idea, kids." He looks between the two of us, "let's hope it works."
