Peter and Harley woke up for school the next morning with an unspoken resolvent. Everyone got in the cars going to their different schools and left.
Peter, Harley and Alex walked over to Ned, MJ and Erin. Harley held Erin's hand, and everyone else just stood around. The buzzing was getting louder, Peter grimaced.
"You okay Peter?" MJ asked.
"Uh, yeah. Um... Headache." He pointed to the back of his head and everyone, but Alex and Erin knew it was his senses and he was telling them something was wrong.
The bell went and everyone rushed to class, they had English first, they were finishing up an essay from last week. Chemistry was after and they had another pop quiz.
Halfway through the pop quiz, the doors to the class were banged open by four men in SHIELD uniforms. One stood at the door, the second talked to the teacher and the other two walked over to the twins and showed them a piece of paper. Peter and Harley grabbed their bags and stood up, following the Agents out of the class and through the hallways, flanked by the men on either side.
Students came outside their classrooms and watched as the Parker twins were escorted out of the premises and into a shiny black limo.
The car was driven to the Tower, the twins got out with the Agents and ran to the reserved elevator, taking them up to the suit changing rooms, Peter put on his fabric Spider-Man suit and Harley changed into his SHIELD suit, then they went to the landing pad. Peter and Harley sprinted to the Quin Jet and as soon as they were in, the jet took off at full speed.
"So... Where're we going?" Harley asked.
Everyone on the plane laughed, "On a serious note, we found another HYDRA base. This could be where they're keeping the 'big' weapon we keep hearing about." Steve informed.
All the Avengers who were at the Tower that week, were in the plane, on the same mission. This was going to be a big one.
"Where is it?" Peter asked.
"Okunevo forests in Russia." Bucky answered.
The ride was still five hours, even with the speed of the jet.

Alex had tried calling the twins multiple times already, to no avail. Then she tried asking Happy for answers after school, but he claimed he didn't know anything and just told her that Pepper was back at the Tower. So, when she walked out of the elevator, into the common room, it was an even bigger shock to find out that the only people there at the moment was: Scott, Hope, Cassie, Morgan, Laura and her children.
Just then, Pepper walked out of another elevator, looking for Alex.
"Ah, there you are." She said.
"Where is everyone?"
Pepper smiled, "They are away on an important and highly classified mission. If they choose to talk about it when they get back, that is their choice, however I'm not allowed to tell you."
Alex nodded, "What about Peter and Harley? They were practically stolen out of class by men in black suits."
"Oh, that. Yeah, Aunt May was in an accident and the boys were rushed to Europe to be with her." Pepper lied.
Alex's face fell, "Oh. I'm sorry."
"Yes, it is quite sad. Anyway, we all get to hang out, so enjoy the peace and quiet." Pepper said as she waved to the group and sat on the couch.
"Okay, I'll just go put my stuff in my room."
Alex took the elevator up to her room, threw her bag in the corner and sat on the edge of her bed, getting her phone out. First, she tried to call Harley, no response, then Peter, same thing. 'Wouldn't they at least pick up?' She clicked on the unknown number and typed a new text message: 'Avengers are out on a mission. Parker twins are in 'Europe'.'
