"But...?" Happy had known Mira her whole life; he knew when a 'but' was coming.

"But that's not going to stop this...Mysterio. Or keep the rest of the kids from getting killed."

"Does this mean what I think it means?" Though he had so far been silent, Cal piped up at Mira's remark -- a Cheshire grin gracing his features. While he had very much been enjoying their so-called "Summer of No Responsibilities" (and the fact it had, thus far, been missing one James Rogers), he also wasn't about to turn down the chance to fuck some asshole up. One could only go so long living in their world without itching for a fight.

"It does." Taking a moment to look at Cal, she reached for his hand even as her attention turned back to the two younger boys. "All right. Let's hear it...everything you know about Mysterio. That, and where your class is headed. Cause if nothing else, we need to get MJ and Ned out of there." Whether or not the rest of class was be targeted, they would be for certain.

"Uh..." Peter tried to recall everything they went over during the meeting with Fury...that and their subsequent conversations... "His name is Quentin Beck. He's apparently from an alternate earth that was destroyed by these elementals. But if that's the case, then why would he n...."

"Wait. Did you say Quentin Beck?" Mira turned back to Happy. "I've heard that name before. Can you...?"

"Calling your mom now."

"Thanks. Okay. Continue."

"He said he was from an alternate earth but he had these projectors and drones and..."

And that sounded a whole lot like Stark tech. The sooner Happy got Mel on the phone, the better. "Forget Beck for a second. I know I asked about him, but until I talk to my mom...where is your class now?"

"Headed home, I think."

"Yeah. They were supposed to leave from London, but we went to Berlin to see Fury."

"Which was when Beck showed up."

"Can you confirm they got on the flight?"

Grabbing their phones, the two boys began to try and text Ned. Meanwhile, Happy, now waiting for Mel to cross reference Beck's name, tapped Cal on the shoulder and handed him his phone -- Flash's latest live stream running.

"They're still in London."

"Then looks like we're headed here."

"But our stuff is wrecked."

"Both of you?"

At the synchronized nods, Mira sighed. "Then it's a good thing Starks never pack light. Happy?"

"On it...talk to your mother..." He passed the phone to Mira while hitting a button in one of the front panels that opened up a back section of the plane. "You two should find everything you need there."

EJ grinned, taking it all in. There were multiple stations set up. One clearly intended to be for Peter, the other for him. But then... "Hey, Hap? Who's the third station for?"

At that, the former bodyguard just grinned and slid into the pilot's seat. There wasn't much actual piloting to be done -- everything was automated and controlled by Tony's AI tech but still. It made him feel like he had some control over the situation.

While the boys got to work, Mira listened as her mother filled her in on Beck's background. "So not from an alternate earth?"

"No."

"And not actually super powered?"

"Nope."

"Well that makes this all easier."

"If you want backup, I can call Bex. Have James sent out there. Or you know how to reach MI-6..."

"We got this Mum."

"We?" Mel was more than a little bit intrigued by that declaration.

"Yeah. We. EJ, Pete, Callum, and I...we...we can handle it."

"I know you can. Be careful. And try to keep Happy out of danger."

"Always. Tell Morgie we miss her and are bringing home tons of presents."

"I will. Love you, Baby Girl."

"Love you too, Mum." Hanging up, she handed the phone back to Happy.

"You sure you're ready to do this?"

"No." She wasn't sure she'd ever be ready. But someone had to do it. And she wasn't about to let Peter and EJ go it alone. Not after all they had already been through.

"He'd be proud of you, you know."

"Hap..."

"He would. He always knew you could be so much more than you pretended to be. He was just waiting for you to realize it."

Not sure what to say to that, she reached out and hugged him. "Thanks..."

"Any time. Now how about you show those boys how it's done. I'll cue up the tunes."

And with that, Back in Black filled the air as Mira de-tached herself from Happy and headed back to join EJ and Peter. "Move over..."

"Mira?"

"What? You think I'm going to let you have all the fun. No way. I've been working on this for a while now. You know...just in case...but I could probably use another set of eyes..."

"Let me see!" EJ pressed the button that would set his own suit up for creation before moving to look over his sister's.
