A LOUD KNOCK sounds off on the front door of the Leeds' house. Misty's head perks up, sliding off her bed and tiptoeing towards her bedroom door. She peeps from around the corner, watching as Ned walks over to the front door. Opening the door, Misty sees Peter Parker standing on the other side. Glasses covering his eyes and his backpack slung over one shoulder.

"Did you bring it!" Ned asked, an excited tone in his voice. Peter smiled, digging in his backpack and pulling out a Millennium Falcon lego set.

"Over 1353 pieces!" Peter excitedly said himself.

"Yes! My parents said we can use the coffee table in the living room." Ned said, the two males walking towards the living room.

"What about your sister?" Peter asked, Misty's heart racing once Peter mentioned her.

"She's not having a great day. I don't want to bother her." Ned sighed.

"What happened?" Peter asked.

"Another incident. I just hope she doesn't close herself off from me." Ned mumbled. Misty's heart sank at the way her brother spoke. Despite the constant harassment from school, she feels bad for troubling her family. She loves them so much. She didn't want to just be burden to them.

"You're a good brother Ned. Don't forget that." Peter pats his shoulder.

"Maybe it's best we let her join us. Six hands are better than four." Ned said.

"Fine with me." Peter smiled. Misty slipped back into her room as she noticed her brother walking towards it. Jumping back on her bed, she waits for him to knock on the door. Finally hearing the three knocks, she calls out the Ned that he can come in.

"Hey." she casually said.

"Hey. Peter brought over a new Star Wars lego set. Do you want to help us build it?" Ned asked.

"Are you sure?" Misty asked.

"I don't like seeing you sad Misty. No matter what anyone says to you, you will always be my amazing and talented sister." Ned said. Misty slightly smiled, jumping off her bed and engulfing Ned in a tight hug.

"I love you Ned." she mumbled.

"I love you to sis." he mumbled back. The Leeds siblings head of the bedroom and join Peter Parker in the living room. Peter takes note of Misty's presence, shyly smiling to himself. Misty's face grew warm, trying to hide the fact that she was blushing.

"Hi Misty." Peter nervously said.

"Hi...Peter." she greets him as well. The three individuals spent the rest of their day building a new lego set. This will always be a fond memory for Misty.

"NEARLY DONE." Peter watches as Misty's suit is being created. Peter suggested using an ice blue suit instead of the simple plain white. It would also react to her change in temperature, keeping her vitals stable and also helping to further enhance her ice manipulation capabilities. This was it. Happy informed them the others were around the Tower Bridge or what Flash called it the London Bridge. She also noticed Peter discreetly handing Happy something and mumbling something to him. In the back of her mind, Misty knew she had to tell Peter the truth before she loses her chance.

"Peter...there's something you should know." Misty mumbled. Peter looks at her, a confused expression on his face.

"What?" he looks at her.

"I need to tell you this before we leave this plane because I don't know what is going to happen to us and..." Misty felt herself beginning to panic.

"Hey hey. It's okay. Nothing is going to happen to us." Peter takes Misty's hands in his own, soon realising what he's doing. This is inappropriate for them to keep on doing this.

"Peter...Doctor Strange said I was the reason for something bad going to happen to you in the future." Misty finally admitted.

"W-Wha...I don't understand." he didn't know what Misty meant.

"The fight isn't over, is what he said. His words haunt me. I was afraid, afraid that I wasn't going to be strong enough to protect you or Ned or MJ. I needed to learn more about my powers. It's why I pushed you away. I needed to be confident that I could protect you and prevent what would happen to you. I'm scared Pete. I'm scared to lose you." she mumbled.

"Then...why did you leave and say nothing to me?" he sounded hurt. Misty couldn't blame him for feeling that way.

"I can't explain the full story right now but I had no choice. I'm sorry that I lied to you Pete. I just knew I was never going to be good enough for you." Misty mumbled.

"Well, that's for me to decide." Peter simply said.

"I understand." she simply nodded. Peter felt conflicted. This entire time, they could've been together. Peter didn't cross that boundary because he respected her wishes. he feels so conflicted about his feelings right now.

"Misty, I need you to protect our friends okay with Happy and Artemis. I don't want you near Beck. I don't want anything to happen to you." Peter said, trying not to look at her. He was still confused about everything she told him but he still cared so deeply for her.

"Okay Pete." she nodded. Their suits were finally complete, both teenagers taking them carefully into their hands. Exchanging looks, they both used one of the private rooms in the plane, changing into the new suits.

Misty slips on her new boots, covering her eyes with a new mask. She felt her powers coursing throughout her body, her eyes beginning to glow blue. Her hair turns white, her powers now taking control of her entire body.

She joins Peter back in the main area of the plane, looking at him in his new suit. Peter is taken aback by Misty's new appearance.

"Haven't seen the full Frostbite look in a while." Peter said, slightly smiling.

"I...missed it." Misty smiled to herself. Both teenagers were stunned themselves when Artemis walks out. Clad head to toe in black. Hair slicked back and fingerless gloves covering his hands. A glittery silver mask covered his eyes and reaches his cheekbones. It seemed much like a masquerade mask.

"The silver assassin." Peter mumbled.

"Never thought I would wear this again." Artemis chuckled, slinging his crossbow over his shoulder and sheathing his daggers along the sides of his boots, his waist and biceps.

"That's a lot of knives." Misty remarked.

"Not as much as what I used to carry around." he remarked. The both teenagers don't realise how dangerous of an individual Artemis really is. They both heard stories of how he took out a horde of S.H.I.E.L.D agents using just one arrow for his crossbow.

"Three of you ready?" Happy calls out.

"Ready." the three of them said in unison. Peter heads towards the opening door hatch of the plane.

"Come back okay." Misty calls out to him.

"I promise." he simply nods, carefully heading out of the plane and climbing up onto the front side on the exterior of the plane.

"Did you tell him?" Artemis asked.

"I did." Misty nodded.
