We run outside and hear banging. Clearly, a fight is happening. I stay back and try to get my gear to fly to me. Staying behind a bus for safety, but Ned runs ahead to see what's going on. It takes a while for them to reach me, but this is way longer than usual.

"Nice shot!" I hear Pete scream. I run to the source of the noise. "Are you okay? Pe-" I stop, catching myself. Spidey continues to fight the man, attracting him to a bus with his webs.

"Yes! Ned, Morgan! The guy with the wings is Liz's dad!"

"Aw, that poor girl." I say, "What?" Ned says.

"I know. I gotta tell Mr. Stark. Call Happy Hogan. He's Mr. Stark's head of security. And, uh, get a computer to track my phone for me." He says, clearly talking to Ned.

"Okay, I'm coming with you to fight the Vulture."

"What?" He stops mid-jump. "Oh, that's what I've been calling him. It better than man wi-"

"No, I mean you can't come with me. You don't have your suit anymore."

Then, as if on cue. My boots fly in and connect to my feet. I bend down and grab the two handles on them. My gloves clamp-on and form around my hands and forearms. "No, I have some really old versions that Dad didn't know about." He sighs and jumps onto a street lamp. I start up the boots and follow him.
"Hurry, we gotta catch him before he leaves town!"

As we are going Pete drops down and I see him on top of Flash's car. I stay as hidden as I can for someone wearing rocket boots since I have nothing hiding my identity.

Peter speaks with a scratchy voice that doesn't match up with any fake voice he's done before. "Flash, I need your car and your phone."

"Uh, sir, technically, this is my dad's car, sir. So I can't-"

Pete eventually gets it and he drives off. I drop in after he's drove off a little bit.

It's clear that he's never driven in real traffic. He swerves and hits things. "Peter, watch where you're going!" He yells a quick apology and pulls out the phone.

"Hello, Ned? Hey, hey, hey, hey, can you hear me?" More bad driving and I decide to presume the fetal position. "Ned, I need you to track my phone for me."
He continues to talk on the phone with Ned, asking him how to operate the car.
"Okay, you're on speakerphone."
"You stole Flash's car. Awesome."

"Yeah, it's awesome. It's awe- Woah!" I look up to see us almost crash into some cars. "I'm never looking up again," I say mostly to myself. "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Move! Move!"
"Peter, are you okay?"
"I've never really driven before. Only with May in parking lots. This is a huge step up."

"Well, that would explain it!" I say over the screams, honks, and general noises of chaos.
"Hey, have you gotten through to Happy yet?"
"Yeah, I'm working on it. I just gotta back door the phone system. Hey, can't Morgan try and call too?" I laugh and yell, "Left my phone at the school!"

There are more screams. "Hey! Ned! How we coming on with those headlights?"
"Uh, round knob to the left of the steering wheel, turn clockwise."
"Left, okay, okay. Perfect! So where's my phone now?"
"He stopped in an old industrial park in Brooklyn."
"What? That makes no sense. I thought he said he was going out of town!"

"Oh, big surprise, the bad guy lied!"
"I reached Mr. Happy. Don't think he likes you, by the way. It sounded like he was catching a flight. He said something about taking off in nine minutes."
I think about it, moving day. Happy is in charge of moving everything from the tower to the facility. "Pete! Its moving day!"

"Its moving day!" He repeats after me, "He gonna rob that plane! We gotta stop him!"
Thankfully we start driving down empty roads. Less to hit. "Okay, slow down. You're getting close. It's on your right."
"What?"
"Turn right! Turn right"

"Morgan, lean back, " I do as he says and he webs something and pulls the car with him. It's starting to make me extremely sick. We crash into something and the car turns on its side. My side to be exact. "Peter! This is not how you drive a car. All four wheels are supposed to be on the road!"

I crawl out of the car, thankfully unscathed and I hear Peter jump out. "Remind me never to let you drive."
We make our way to the roof and Spidey sticks his head through a sunroof. He comes back up and looks at me. "You stay here, I'll check it out if I'm not back in ten, call your dad." I pout and he sighs. "Stay here, please." I put my hands against my head to resemble dog ears. "Woof, as you command, Spider-Master." I assume he rolled his eyes. Then he starts to climb down his web. When I see him touch the ground I stick my head in.

The room is full of tech and other goodies for me to look at. I resist the urge though. That is until I see the Vulture's wings. I jump through and run to the wings. "Mai, get pictures of this. I hold up my wrist so the camera can see the wings.

"Morgan, what the hell?" I hear Spidey say from a distance. "I'm sorry but I've been dying for a close up of these things. I promise I'll stay right here."
His posture slumps in annoyance, but he continues on. I study every detail and mechanic that I see. I also go digging for the blueprints. Which, I conveniently find lying about. Even though it took me forever to find them, it was worth it.

"Jackpot, " I say to myself as I get more pictures. Then I hear a noise, I turn to see the wings powering on. "Oh no, " they zip towards me and hit me in the head.
