"You don't know what you're talking about." She told him.
"Most of the time, yeah." Peter admitted. "Still, we should discuss about that kiss. Don't pretend it didn't happen."
"You kids kissed?" Scott stepped back to the light.
"It was no big deal." That was a big fat lie she said. "Anyway, can you not do this now?"
"Why can't it be now? If you can actually steal time then time is least of our concerns."
She ignored and opened the pages of the books, looked through it to find what she was looking for, she did, so she turned her back to them and looked up.
"Are we done, is that book the time thingy? I really need to get back." Scott said.
"This is just the study of it, dad usually has the actual stone hung around his neck all the time, but he left it here to face whatever he thinks is dangerous, thinking it's safe."
She drew a word in the air that Peter couldn't understand them, and the secret door was open.
"Now, this is sealed with very strong magic, obviously written by my dad because you can't even read the handwriting, he was a doctor."
Scott shrugged, he really couldn't make that out.
"Now, unless you're more powerful than he is, you can break the spells, which is not me, not any of us sorcerers that I'm aware of unless we bring back the Ancient one." She sighed, then lightened up again with a smile.
"Or if you are his daughter, you can actually cheat your way in, tricking it into thinking it's you." You chuckled evilly.
She dragged some sort of light from it and put it over her head and the gate opened up.
"It's a secret door." Peter said excitedly.
"And that," She pointed at the eye of Agamotto in the middle. "Is what we came for."
They all walked inside, and the glowing green light was blindspot them. She lowered herself down to look into it, and fascinated by its beauty.
"This thing here can control time?" Scott asked.
"We'll find out." She replied.
"You sure there's no alarm? When I steal goodies from its place alarms always---"
She hung it around her neck, and the whole place started shaking.
"--Went off." Scott said.
"Let's get out of here!" Peter grabbed her by her waist and Scott by his neck and dragged them out, just to all gasped and stopped by who was at the entrance.
Father Strange and Wong, in front of more than ten other masters of the mystic arts.
"Hello, daughter." He literally said two words and she thought I'm fucking dead.
"Dad--"
"I distrusted Wong when he said if I leave the stone behind and go out of town you will leave the stone alone, because I trusted my daughter to be trustworthy. And look where we are."
"You need to go back." She told the boys.
"Thank you." Said Scott and as she made the portal, he jumped down willingly, he shouted before his voice faded. "I want some orange slices...!"
But Peter, wouldn't go.
"Peter, go!"
"I don't wanna go!" He yelled back in her face.
"You're gonna get in trouble! Just look at him." She pointed at her father's angry face. "He's gonna kill us! He's gonna send us to Everest and I don't even have dicks to freeze!"
"I'm staying with you to the end of the line!"
"Fine!" She said, everything inside the chamber was still shaking, they stepped off and the magic gate closed behind them, now it was just silent and intense stare from the father.
"Hand in the time stone and your punishment will not be bated." He insisted.
"What you're gonna spank me, dad?" She said sarcastically.
"That's cute." He replied.
"It's on then! Aim for his hand!"
Peter webbed Doctor Strange's left hand, but even with one hand, he was able to cast a handcuffs spell and threw it at his daughter.
She blocked it. Then it was all went too fast, Peter could only clear the way for her to head forward, it felt as if this fight was one girl alone against masters of mystic arts, Doctor Strange was surprised her magic grew so much in such short amount of time.
They blasted another magic chain at her, so she touched the bookshelf and set all the books to life, they started flying around and hit Doctor Strange in his sharp nose.
"Got any ideas? I'm out of tricks!" She asked.
"Make that yellow sparking thing and get us out of here!" Peter said.
Every time she tries to make a portal they stopped her, all the two could do was running away in the hallway, eventually, they were cornered up.
"Shit!" She said.
"Shit indeed!" Peter agreed.
Doctor Strange caught up eventually, he smirked, and then made a magic handcuffs then held it above his head. "It's over now, give up. You're captured."
He threw the magic cuff at her.
Daughter Strange laughed and created a shield that refracted the curse back at to his wrists. "Uno reverse card! So long dad weirdo!"
She created a portal above of her, then jumped at Peter, he shot the web into the sky, it held onto something and the both of them escaped.

Peter Parker found himself once again in the middle of the snow, except this time instead of mountains, it was a snowfield, so large there was literally nothing else but snow to the edge of the earth and soft green aurora lights above their heads.
"Where are we?" He asked, taking his mask off and let the cold wind hits his face.
"Somewhere in Iceland... Always wanted to see the northern light so I took us here." (Y/n) said, she matched the green of the sky with the time stone on her neck.
"What just happened?"
"I... fucked up." She said, trying to wrap her head around all the rules she just broke. She made a campfire out of magic, the light was also green, then she apologized the cloak.
"I know you don't like it, but you're all I've got. Come on." She turned her cloak into a small tent with a fluffy blanket, then Peter and her jumped right in to get warmed.
Both of them with blankets over their heads, breathing out their warm breath and their noses so red of the cold.
"You're alright?" He asked.
"Sorry I got you into all this... I just really need it." She looked at the eye of agamotto and the book next to her.
"Never mind about me, I just don't want you and your father to be angry at each other. In the end, he's your family too, there's no point in fighting each other. I'm afraid this will get out of hands."
"I know..." She hid her face in the palm of her hands. "But my brother..."
"I only know Hayden wouldn't want you ended up like this. The whole world knows your true identity, you're chased by your own father because you stole one of the most powerful stones on earth, hell, maybe in an entire galaxy!"
"If there's a chance, Peter, even if there's the slightest chance you can get someone you love back, tell me you wouldn't try." She looked at Peter.
He looked back at her, trying to deny but when he thought of Ben, he just couldn't.
"I'm not even sorry." She nodded.
Then, she took out Peter's burned photograph and put it right next to them, put the book in the lab and started learning.
"Some pages were torn off, but these are enough of what I need..." She muttered. "Okay, let's see."
Peter watched his favorite sorceress did those weird hand movements, she looked clumsy at first but after the third try, it was all perfect.
"Here we go..."
She placed her palm above the picture and then drew across it, when it felt like time stopped, the picture reverse itself back to the way it was before.
"Holy... time travel is real." Peter said under his breath.
She handed it back to Peter with eyes full of hopes.
"So-- You can actually bring someone back? You can actually back to the future!?" Peter nerd's was showing.
"It will take time for these studies, but I think so..." She said.
Though he had bad feelings, that somehow, something told him this is the beginning of the end, but seeing the smile on her face, the first one he's seen where she's truly happy. He stopped himself from stopping it,
And went directly for the kiss.
That kiss was soft, and had even greater magic than what (Y/n) holds. A kiss from Peter Parker was an absolute cure from all anxiety and sadness, it replaced all her worries with one touch. For one with magic, she got the taste of her own medicine, she was enchanted.
Maybe it was the polar lights, maybe it was the cold, maybe it was the campfire, but it was finally the time they realized they were in love.
"--Are you sure?" She asked him after the kiss.
"About what exactly...?" He asked softly.
"To fall for me... it's not wise to play with magic." She smirked softly, her hands still in his hair, their lips inches away.
"I don't know anything anymore... Maybe I'm a fool." Peter Parker said, it was completely honest.
Before anything could happen, there was quite a chance it would too, his spider mask on the floor started vibrating like crazy, it was indeed a call from Tony Stark.
"Who's that?"
"Probably May." He lied, knowing the only one who can get in touch with him through it is the one and only Tony Stark. "I'll tell her I'm sleeping over at Ned's."
"Will she buy it? By the way how the hell is there a signal here?"
"Haha... Ugh, of course. Excuse me." He got out of the tent and walked away from the campfire, then he put his mask back on.
"Hey, Mister Stark!" He said, Tony Stark was face-timing with him, looking as angry as ever.
"Previously on the miserable life of Tony Stark who was taking his shower peacefully until a wizard dad came into my bathroom shouting to my naked ass that his daughter ran away with you! Come back here now Parker!"
Shit.
