It's been just under 3 months since the Battle of Empire State University.

It was January 8th, Monday morning & Peter was comfortably sleeping in his bed at 6 AM. But there was a ringing in his ear that restlessly woke Peter from his slumber.

Peter groaned as he rolled over with his eyes shut, he smacked his alarm clock almost a dozen times before he realized it was his phone.

Without opening his eyes he reached for his phone & accidentally knocked it off of his nightstand. He sighed as leaned over his bed & grabbed his phone.

Luckily his iPhone wasn't cracked & he saw the caller ID, he quickly answered the phone & pressed it against his ear.

"Brutha! I told you to put my bag in my invisible jet", Shuri yelled at T'Challa. "What a bum".

"Uh... Shuri", Peter said, his voice was still raspy from just waking up. He sat up in his bed. His long messy hair was wildly sticking up, his eyes were closed, & his body was still sleepy.

"Oh, hello Peter", Shuri said with her Wakandan accent. "I have some good news".

"Did you figure out how to removed my radioactive enzymes in my blood", Peter asked, his eyes shot open & he was excited.

"Well... no, because that would get rid of your superpowers, but I created a vaccine that increases the immunity to the radiated enzymes", Shuri said through the phone.

Peter got up from his twin bed & walked to the light switch with the phone still pressed up against his ear. His eyes were still closed, so he ended up banging his knee off of the corner of his bed.

He turned the light on & temporarily blinded himself.

Peter's feet were cold from the hardwood floors. The white walls looked great against the light brown floor. His bed was pushed into the corner & his dresser was facing opposite of him with the window in on the wall.

He had a small picture of Michelle, Ned, Miles, Kaine, & himself on his nightstand. Right next to the picture of the Decathlon Team winning Nationals again & a lamp.

Peter had a bookshelf & desk with an office chair by his closet. His laptop was resting on top of his desk next to another lamp. He had pictures of himself with his parents, himself & Uncle Ben, & he had a picture of Tony & Morgan. All of Peter's legos & Star Wars action figures were neatly piled on the top shelf of his closet & a locked trunk sat on the bottom of his closet.

"You had to call me at 6 AM to tell me this", Pete said, he walked himself across his room to his closet to grab some clothes for the day. "I mean, you could have called after I got out of school".

"Lame", Shuri said, both Peter & Shuri laughed. "Plus I thought you would like to hear this early & have a better day, I also thought you would have been up by now".

"Well, I am up now", Peter said as he put the phone on speaker so he could slip on some pants & a t-shirt.

"Good", Shuri said. "The vaccine should be over in a few hours, I just finished it a few moments ago".

"What", Peter asked? "That's insane".

"I know, it shouldn't be taking this long", Shuri said. Again Peter laughed.
