Slowly I woke up, the my black spotty vision going away ever so slowly. Much too slowly for my liking. Groaning I pushed myself up into a sitting position and saw that the board member was gone. Nowhere to be found, rising I found myself much steadier on my feet than I thought I'd be. Reaching out I picked up the small tube that had contained the purple liquid of some sort and grabbed one of the small ones filled with the bright green spider venom. After I'd collected what I'd came down here for I hurried to get out, as I snuck my way up to my office I noticed something seemed off. I could hear what nearly everyone in the room and maybe a few rooms away was saying.

After I was securely at my desk I heard Menken with the board member, I was always forgetting this ones name. He was rarely present and that's why I couldn't seem to remember his name. They were talking about Harry, and that's when the phone rang. I had ducked under my desk, feeling like something was off, like something bad was going to happen soon. It was one of the safest places for me, besides away from Oscorp but I'd promised Harry I'd try and look out for his company.

I can't believe how long it took me to get out of here, even with Felicia trying as well. I know, she was constantly sending me secret messages, she was really good at that somehow. I'd have to make a mental note to ask about it later. It was only about a day or two but it felt like forever, it was dreadful in here. At least I found Max, er, Electro and he would help me get to Oscorp in exchange he'd be free to go get Spider-Man.

Walking through the halls of Oscorp we approached my office and I walked in, feeling confident and powerful. After Electro helped me gain control of the situation I took Menken at gunpoint down to where he showed me Special Projects was to find the spider venom. As soon as we got there I made him load up a needle and inject me in the arm.

Soon it started to burn and I felt like the fire was consuming me. Screaming in agony I dropped to the ground. Out of the corners of my eyes I saw it, the suit. It was designed to cure aliments, or at least keep you up and moving when you couldn't do much. Surely that would help with this immense pain. Every move I made was full of pain but I urged myself to go on and get to the suit.

After I finally crawled all the way to the suit and was outfitted in it I felt the voice come back. It was a bone chilling voice that was urging me to go and kill Menken, and everyone else like him and Spider-Man who'd ever let me down.

I was so confused as to what had happened because I couldn't stay awake under the desk yet, I had been feeling woozy and passed out. I felt fine now and woke up just in time to hear the alarms telling all employees to evacuate.

Carefully I crawled out from under the desk and made my way following my fellow Oscorp employees toward the doors. I however was calmer than most as I made my way through the rubble that was not Oscorp.

I was almost to the doors when I felt the need to turn around and when I looked at the glass wall I saw something descending from the sky and moved to get a closer look at what it could be. As it reached the point where it was out of the fog enough to be visible I was shocked, "Harry?" I called trying to get the attention of my soul-mate. He was covered in some sort of green rash and looked in pain but only slightly

As I went lower to the ground to see who else was here in the building yet after killing Menken I see someone stop and turn but I can't see her clearly. The goblin has a strong hold and holds most of the control over my body but is shocked enough that I have the control to shout back after I hear her voice call my name

"Harry?" with a start I realized it was my Felicia. "Go!" I yell angrily, after she pauses and I can see she doesn't really want to, "Get out of here!" Relenting she turns and goes to leave the building, I breath a sigh of relief that she listened to what I was telling her to do.

'So you fancy the girl eh?' came the goblins voice, 'Well now that just won't due. She'll have to go next.' it cackles and I scream at it to leave her alone. 'Soul-mates only hold you back, you don't need her. Not when you have me!' it's voice echo's in my head and anger seeps in that this thing would dare threaten my soul-mate.

But then we take off, to go find and kill Spider-Man once and for all. As we arrive at the plant I see Gwen Stacy and she's talking to him. And suddenly it clicks when he calls her name.

"Peter." I hiss, "When you said Spider-Man said no, you meant you said no!" He tries to backpedal and tell me that he thought, still thinks, that it would kill me and he really does want to help me. A part of me really want to believe it, but the goblin thinks it nothing but lies spewing from his mouth. "You took away my chance, something I had put my hope it. Now I'm going to take away yours!" The goblin makes the decision for me and we take her up into the clock tower while fighting off Peter.
