chapter five•villians
Peter returns with a girl and a boy my and his age. The girl has pretty brown curls and wears a striped shirt with a necklace.
The boy seems very excited to be here, like he has never seen anything magic or any supervillians in his life. Well he's about to get an intresting taste of reality.
They were discussing something with Peter, when Otto seemed to be getting very annoyed. "Hey!" he yelled, watching Peter's friends every move.
"Who the hell are these two?" Otto demanded, staring into Peter's soul.
"These are my friends. This is MJ," he says, gesturing to the girl.
"And uh, this is Ned," he adds, gesturing toward the boy.
"Hey," MJ says. Ned stands next to her, grinning. "Hello."
Peter looks at Otto awkwardly. "Uh, I'm sorry, what was your name again?" he asks.
"Doctor Otto Octavius," he says, in a very serious and annoyed tone.
There was silence, and then three of them started to burst out in laughter. What was so funny? Poor Otto was just going to get bullied by these kids. But you couldn't really call them kids, I am about the same age as Peter, MJ, and Ned.
"Wait, no seriously, what's your actual name?" Peter laughs.
Ned looks at Connors with an excited expression, like he was going to die of shock. "Oh, is that a dinosaur?" he exclaims.
Connors scowls, unamused at Ned's stupid comment.
"What do you think?" I ask, rolling your eyes.
"Oh, she's our age, who's she?" MJ asks. Peter.
"What powers do you have?"
"Ask again, and I'll burn you to a crisp with my hands."
"Oh, so fire powers? Cool!"
Peter steps closer to the glass that separates us and looks at me with genuine interest. "I really never did get your real name."
"It's Inferno," I insist.
"Your real name. Come on, you have to have an actual name."
I sigh. "Synne. Synne Blackburn."
Peter smiles with his victory.
I sigh and sink to the ground, looking at Otto, annoyed.
Both of us are bored to death, and I don't want to be trapped in this cell. It is worse for Otto because he has to be around so many immature teenagers.
Although they seem sweet, I also don't really care. I just want to go back home and get revenge on my Peter.
Eventually Peter goes on a phone call with his aunt. I had heard her name from a distance, and I believe it is May. And it turns out that the wizard's name is Doctor Strange. Intresting.
I almost gasp when Ned shouts to Peter that he found news of other villians lurking around the city. I wondered if Electro, the man you knew as Max would be mentioned. Or the Green Goblin...
Wait. The man on the bridge is the man that Ned is describing. It's the Green Goblin. But my Green Goblin is different. He's Harry Osborn, not Norman Osborn. It must be one of the different reality villian things. Would the Green Goblin from my universe appear?
Otto spoke about Norman dying... This is odd.
***
Peter had to go to find more villians. Ned and MJ were talking to him through a call, and they were able to see what he was doing to give him advice. They were further from my cells than earlier, but despite that, Otto, Connors, and I are still stuck in our empty magic cells. Great.
"Isn't this just wonderful?" I mutter, standing up and crossing my arms.
"Yep," Otto says sarcastically.
I hear Peter shouting through the call. He has found something. I can't see the camera, but villians are after him, and he is swinging away from them.
MJ and Ned are shouting at him to go either direction, and Peter is freaking out. There seemed to be two different villians.
"Peter?" MJ calls.
Peter's camera goes blank.
Two different villians appear in the other cells. One is a man made out of sand. He pounds his fist against the cell barrier, sand falling onto the ground. The other man appears, as the lights started to flicker.
It is Electro...
"Max?" I gasp.
"Synne? What happened to you? You're just a kid who lives with a big family!" Max exclaims.
"Not anymore. It's Spider-Man's fault that I lost everything, so now I'm going to kill him.
"Ugh, what is this?" the man made out of sand complains.
"You picked the wrong side," Max mutters.
"Wait, you know this creature? I thought that Inferno was the only one who would know of this monster..." Otto spoke.
"I know your full name, so it's only fair, you can call me Inferno, or by my actual name, Synne."
Otto nods, and MJ and Ned looked suprised.
"Woah, same universes," Ned gasped.
"Dr. Curt Connors, like I'm sure Synne might have said. He was a scientist at Oscorp when I worked there. A brilliant scientist. Until he turned himself into a lizard. Then he tried to turn the whole city into lizards, it was crazy!" Max explained.
"I can confirm. Connors went insane," I sigh.
"Synne, Max, it wasn't crazy, it was the next step in human evolution," Connors snickered.
"The dinosaur can talk?!" Ned gasped in suprise.
"Lizard," MJ corrected.
"Right."
"Speaking of which, what happened to you, Max? Last I recall, you had bad teeth, glasses, and a combover. Synne, you were just an average girl with nothing special. Did the two of you get a makeover? You know I can give both of you a real makeover."
"Let me guess..." Max spoke, annoyed.
"Into a lizard?" I finish.
"Exactly!" Connors exclaims.
"Would you three just shut up?! Where are we?" Sandman demanded.
"It's complicated-" Ned starts.
"A wizard's dungeon," MJ interupts.
"A wizard's... a wizard's dungeon?" Max spoke, unsure about the new information.
"There's no real way to sugar coat that. It's literally the dungeon of a wizard," MJ explained.
Otto seemsto agree, and so do I.
"Look, you can keep your magic. I want a taste of that new energy I just felt," Max smirked, as his hands glowed and the lights flickered.
MJ's phone started ringing. It is Peter.
Peter thanks MJ for helping him, and he wanted to confirm that Max and Sandman were in their cells. Ned semed to be looking at a tree with an excited expression. The tree had accidently transported into a cell.
"Hey, ask him if this, like, a tree monster, or a like a scientist that turned into a tree...?" Ned spoke.
"It's just a tree, man. Just a tree," Max answered.
This is going to be a long next few days.
