"IT'S ALIENS, IT HAS TO BE." Ned said, as he was looking through the tabloids. It was already nighttime, and they were already back inside the hotel lobby.

"Buzzfeed said that it was exposed to an experimental underwater generator and got hydro powers," Flash announced.

"Bro, that site is lame," Starr muttered under her breath.

"Yeah, you should definitely believe everything you read on the Internet," MJ sarcastically replied to what Flash had said.

Flash suddenly scoffed, "Spider-Man could take him."

Briana rolled her eyes as she continued to scroll through her phone, every now and then, her mind wandering back to who that unknown hero was, when she suddenly got a text message from AJ.

AJ : Hey. Heard what happened. Everything okay?

Briana : Yeah, everything's fine, AJ.

AJ : Who was that guy? Any ideas?

Briana : None.

AJ : Well, watch out. I don't trust him. Whoever that is... he or she seems... sketchy.

Briana : Gotcha.

"No, no, no, no —" Peter, who was currently by the stairs, spoke through the phone. "We wanna stay, we wanna stay."

"It's a good thing that I packed your suit, huh?" Aunt May said on the other line, as she was currently inside her office. "I can't believe you forgot it."

"Yeah."

"So, who was that guy you were with? Was that Mr. Strange?"

"Dr. Strange, May," Peter corrected, sighing softly. "And uh, I don't know who that was. He was a new guy. I was trying to help him but —"

"May, tell Happy to quit it!"

"Hey, Happy, that's my lunch, don't eat that one!"

Peter's eyebrows furrowed, "Happy's there?"

There was a slight pause from the other line, before his aunt finally responded, "Yeah, it's Happy. He's here. He came by to volunteer, and he's hanging around in the office. Anyway, your sister and Happy wants to say hi."

"Hey, baby bro!"

"Big sis, I'm not a baby anymore," Peter grumbled out.
