Chapter 19: Released In Arizona

  "Do you know what I feel like?" "No?" "It's like.. my life is a book.." "No way." "And I was the main character.." "Yes, you probably were." "And now i'm just.. a side character? I mean.. now i'm just in a cell in the villain's prison.." "Sh! The goblin's coming!"

  "Mornin', boys." The green goblin said, sliding a plate under the door: A piece of bread, a tomato, and a onion. "Gee, thanks." Walt said, rolling his eyes. "No prob." The green goblin said, walking off with the cart. "Lunch time!"

  "I swear, he's worse than magneto." Walt said, looking at the single slice of bread. "Really?" "Yeah, at least Magneto gave decent meals." "Huh. I didn't think he would."

  "How long has it been?" I asked. "Since you got in here?" "Yeah." "A week."  I sighed, taking a bite of my 'mini sandwich'. "What do you think they're doing, Issac?" "Probably trying to find us." "Yeah, probably." "Where are we anyway, Walt?" Issac asked. "On the coast of Arizona." "Really? Arizona?" "Yeah. I saw a sign when I rolled into the state." "Huh."

------------------------

  "Hey! Is anyone up?" The Green Goblin called from outside the cell. "I am.." I said, yawning. "Good." There was a beep sound, and the door opened. "Huh..?" "I'm going to let you go, Allen." "Why..?" "I keep getting complaints. Plus, you don't deserve to be in here." "I don't?" "No.It was a mistake that I took you, really it was." 

  "I find that hard to believe, Goblin.." "I know you do. But I don't care. I don't need you anymore. I found other people to use as bait." "Really?" "Yeah. You aren't in a relationship with her, so she wouldn't give her heart for you." "Gee, thanks." "No problem." I grabbed my phone, and put it into my jacket pocket. "You're.. taking that?" "Yeah. Walt gave it to me." The green goblin rolled his eyes. "Nice kid, isn't he?" "Sure, yeah." "Yeah yeah, whatever. Get a move on Allen." The Green Goblin said, patting my back. "Alright then.." 

  "Remember, this location is secret. You aren't allowed to tell anyone, or someone dies. Got it?" I gulped. "Got it." "Good boy." The Green Goblin said, as he went into a room. "Give me a second- opening the door is always quite tricky." I nodded, watching him go through a large door. 

  The door opened, and a beach was visible. "Go on, Allen. Remember what I told you." I stepped out of the prison, the breeze of a Arizona beach greeting me. Then I spit some salt out of my mouth. "Thanks, Arizona. Really appreciate it."

  I made my way up the hill, a crab following close behind me. "Hey! Go Away! Please? I don't want my feet cut off.." The crab looked up at me, and turned the other way. "Thanks crab." "You're welcome!" The crab said in a squeaky voice. "What the-" I took a step back. The crab stood on it's legs, and a person stood where they were. "Who the heck are you-?" "Martin Green. Son of Miss Martian." I sighed, "Thank god. I thought you were with him." "Who's.. 'him'?" "The Green Goblin." 

  "Oh, him? Yeah I know about him. Miracle he didn't catch me though. He started in Arizona, you know?" "No, I didn't know actually. That makes sense though." "Why?" "His base is.. near here." "Ah. Got'cha." 

  I started walking, Martin following close behind. "So you're coming, then?" "Yeah! Where are we going?" "To find Taylor Parker." "Spiderman's kid? Woah!" "Yeah, she's one of them." "So she has brothers and sisters?" "Yeah." "Cool! Why are we looking for her exactly..?" "Just go with it." "Ok!" We started make our way down the hill. But- where could she be?
