Ned and I ran down the school hallways toward the computer class. I've been trying to call Happy but he wouldn't answer his phone. It kept going to voicemail. In the mean time, Ned caught me up with the whole evil dude being Liz's dad. Alien technology turned weapons and the Avenger's weapons were the bad guy's main goal tonight. It was the basic villain mission.

The music from the dance was quieter as we drew further away from the gym area. I slowed down and tried to open the door. It was locked. Ned slid to a stop behind me, almost passing by. I heaved a sigh and opened my purse.

"Uh, what are you doing?" Ned was eyeing me curiously. I dug through my purse, unzipping the small compartment to get out my lock picking tools. Ned's eyes widened when he saw what was in my bag. "Are-are those more weapons!?"

"Yeah. Never leave the house without them. I just carried more tonight. Call it a gut feeling." I hummed out, inserting the lock pick into the keyway of the handle. I turned the pick to the side and a soft click escaped the door handle. A grin spread across my lips. "There we go."

"I have so many questions for you right now." Ned told me as I opened the door.

"I know. I'll answer them when Peter gets back." I took out the lock pick and placed it back into my purse.

We jogged over to two random computers beside each other. We turned on the monitors. Then we quickly entered the schools login. Ned started to pull up the Apple website to start tracking Peter's phone. He also pulled out his personal laptop from his computer class. Ned quickly logged in and started to pull things up. Soon, Ned's phone rang. He quickly took it out and answered the call, putting it on speaker.

"Hello, Ned? Hey, hey, can you hear me?" Peter's voiced came through the speaker phone.

"Go for Ned." Ned typed away at the keyboard.

"And Paulina!" I chipped in, pulling up the Google search engine.

"Ned, or Paulina, I need you to track my phone." Peter said.

"Yeah, but where is it?" Ned was finally at the webpage where you put in the phone information to start tracking it.

"I left it in Liz's dad's car." Peter informed us.

"Genius move." Ned hit the enter key and the webpage showed a blue circle moving down a street. "Okay, he just passed the GameStop on Jackson Avenue."

"Hey, where are the headlights on this thing? I'm in Flash's car." Peter panicked.

"You stole Flash's car. Awesome." Ned nodded. "Hey Lina, pull up the specs."

"Got it. What's the model?" I asked, typing away on the keyboard.

"Okay, you're on speakerphone." Peter told us.

"2017 Audi TTS Roadster." Ned informed me as he started to go into coding to hack into Happy's phone.
