As we soar through the air, Peter pulls out a small chute that helps him slow down. We get next to each other.

Coming up to the illusion I close my eyes. "Oh, it's not real, it's not real, it's not real!"

We get inside and land on one of the drones.

"Holy cow!" Peter says as we look up and see hundreds of drones in here, all projecting the image Beck wants everyone to see.

Peter starts webbing the drones together, one by one, with a single line of webbing.

"I hope this works!" I scream as he lets go of the last drone and detonates the taser web. Electricity shoots out and the drones start to fall.

"Yes!" Peter exclaims. Then the illusion starts to break and we can see part of the outside world. We look over to a bridge nearby and see Beck, staring back at us. "We see you."

We try to maneuver our way towards him, but as we get closer, a couple of drones plow into our sides. Sending us flying over the bridge Beck is in and we crash into another, plummeting down to the street below.

"Ouch." I cough out as we get up, holding my our sides from the impact. We look up and see multiple drones circling the bridge Beck stands in, giving him protection.

Then the entire monster illusion disappears and it's just drones.

A whole squad starts coming after Peter and I. He swings through the Tower Bridge, trying to get away from them, and I fly up, but they just keep following. I manage to blast a few with my repulsors, but there's still hundreds of them.

Landing behind a car, Peter and I start to panic.

"Happy? Say something, please. Just let us know you're alive." Peter says.

"I'm here! I'm here." He says to us through the comms.

"Oh, Happy! Thank God." I sigh in relief, still hiding behind cars.

"I bought us some time. But not much."

I begin to fly back up, and half the drones follow me.

"We're trying to get to Beck but we can't shake these drones." I tell him.

Peter swings through the bridge, creating a net with his webbing. It catches a lot of the drones and they blow up, but as soon as he destroys them, more come after us.

I land next to Peter again and we look over at a car.

"Help me lift the car up!" I tell him. He shoots his webs on either side of the bridge and stick to the car. I fly us, and the vehicle up high in the air. The drones begin to follow us.

As we get to the highest point we can go, we kick the car down and destroy all the drones below us. Peter and I land on the roof of the bridge next to Beck.

He sees us and sends more drones our way, this time with flame throwers. I see Peters suit catch fire as I fly up and over them all, managing to dodge them.

"Em, am I on fire?!" Peter asks me. And I look over to him.

"Yep!" He looks down and screams, realizing he has flames on himself.

As I try to fly away from the drones, I see Peter create another web net on the bridge, destroying more drones, and then he glides over the water, extinguishing the flames. Good idea, Peter.

As I start to fly back up in the sky, I see a flock of drones flying high. Then an explosion happens near me and I begin to fall.

I fly around another drone, soaring through the air over the two smaller bridges, with one holding Beck. Peter shoots a huge hammock of webbing between the two bridges. He shoots a few splitter webs at the drones, grabbing about ten of them.
