The sudden beeping ringing throughout Cam's small apartment caused her to shoot up from her bed. 

Ooo, that hurt!

Note to self: no more sudden movements with a broken arm.

After scrolling through her phone, she rolled out of bed and entered her connected bathroom. She looked like a mess in the mirror. Last night's events came back to her in a flash.

After being transferred to the nearest hospital, her arm was worked on, leaving her in a cast. She summoned a taxi, and by the time she unlocked her door and entered her one-bedroom apartment, it was four o'clock. Yeah, she was going straight to sleep.

One hour. Camila got one hour of sleep, waking up at 5 AM for work. Would she get in trouble for sleeping in her lab?

So, there she was, brushing her hair into a messy ponytail, trying to not breakdown into tears due to her lack of sleep and broken arm.

As her mechanical toothbrush whirred lazily around in her mouth, she couldn't help but think of Spider-man. She was very skeptical of him at first and found him slightly obnoxious. However, when they parted ways, she couldn't help but feel a sudden emptiness. She had a feeling they would become pretty good friends.

Then it hit her. Greery, the bound-up scientist, most likely reported the pair to the company's higher-ups and security. He saw her face! She had been too tired to mention it to Spider-man last night. Maybe she could play it off? Either way, she had to go in to work; make sure the goo was still in place.

She threw on her nice slacks and a dress shirt; along with her cloud-white lab coat. She brewed her coffee, put it in a to-go cup, and set out to the street.

Flores hailed a taxi that took her straight to the VorroTech building. She made her way to the identification pads, passing guards who gave her no more than an average glance. So far so good...

She checked into the pad with ease, no alerts coming up or cops swarming her.

As she was about to make her way to her office, a voice came over the speakers announcing a mandatory assembly in the mess hall. What could that be about?

She stepped into the mess hall surrounded by other employees trying to find a spot to sit or stand. She peered around the room for an empty seat when she spotted two hands waving her over. It was Robby and Peter. She made her way to their table sitting in the available chair.

"Cam! What happened to your arm?" Robby asked with total shock.

"Um, just a little lab accident that's all."
