Reviews:
NyanWolf- Goblin wasn't exactly after his leg, but he didn't need him in one piece if you go back and check it out. But yes, he did go even crazier than before. In this chapter you get to meet another character of mine named Kasumi. I am planning to later write a short story explaining my OCs in K'un-Lun, and you will get to meet her and Aiko (Hope and Kai's mom) in that story when I write it. I have many ideas going I just don't know where I am going yet. Thank you for your constant reviews, also love your stories by the way!
The world was white. Everything around me was white. And I was wearing a white angel-like gown. Well that confirms it, I'm dead.
That monster sliced me into bits and then used me for whatever he needed me for. And now I am here. Hopefully on my way to Feng-Tu by now, on my way to heaven.
"Kaito." A faint voice calls and I look around me, there is nothing here. Just me and the white nothingness that goes on forever.
"Kaito!" It yells again. I whip my head around. Ok, this is weird, someone is here.
"Kaito!" The voice yells again as the white disappears instantly and I open my eyes again to see the ceiling, it's an earthy brown color and it is plain.
I'm not in my room. My ceiling is covered in paint from drawings I gaze at.
I move my head to look at the bed. Miss Kasumi is sitting on the left hand side rubbing my shoulder.
"Thank the Dragon you woke up." She sighs heavily in relief. "I thought I almost lost you. And I don't need to explain that to your mom." She jokes lightly rubbing my arm.
I smile weakly at her joke, all mom did was worry about me and Hope some days, she was a little over protective and always concerned about us getting killed in training.
Feeling sweeps over me as I let out a breath, and I feel a great about of loss, terrible pain, and sorrow. I turn my head away from Kasumi and close my eyes, biting back tears as I felt my left leg is on fire.
"Kaito, can you try moving your toes for me?" she asks as I feel her get up and walk to the foot of the bed pulling up the blankets. I obey her command.
"Good." She sighs heavily, I can feel she has a forced smile.
"How long have I been out?" I mutter weakly. My voice sounds terrible and scratchy, I would be shocked if she actually understood me.
"Almost a week." She sighs. I groan, not the response I wanted. "But you're ok now, you're awake and alive." She says. I look over at her with big eyes. "Do you want to sit up?" she asks.
I consider it for a minute. "No." I sigh.
"Alright. How about I leave you alone for a little bit?" She leans down and wraps her arms around my neck before getting up and leaving.
From the door way, she turns to face me one last time.
"If you need anything, just let me know." Her smile is gone now and I can see the clear pain on her face.
I look back up at the ceiling. My stomach is in knots for some reason, I might end up vomiting.
I wait a moment for the voices outside to go away and then I try to force myself to sit upward.
It didn't work. I sigh, I guess I'll have to use my powers. I close my eyes and hold my two fists at about the bottom of the rib cage and focus. Once I feel I am upright, I open my eyes slowly and relax.
The headache was the first thing I noticed. And then the painful burning sensation in my left leg.
I pull my arms close to my chest, palms facing outward and push my hands away making the blankets fly off my legs.
I sit there for a minute, I'm not sure what to do, the vomiting feeling comes back and I know I am going to be sick. My breathing gets slower and I think my brain is just shutting itself off. I slid back down in bed and hold my arms out, closing my hands into fists I pull them back and the blanket flies over me.
I turn onto my side with my mind racing. This is just a dream, right? This is just my imagination.
My eyes start to water. And I can't control my stomach anymore. I hardly manage to lean over the side of the bed before I throw up.
Miss Kasumi opens the door and slowly walks up to my bed where I pull the blanket over my head.
"Kaito," she says, rubbing my back gently. She knows I found out.
She gets up comes back a minute later pulling the blanket off my head. I don't let her and hold it there as I cry. "Kaito drink this." She demands softly. I look up at her pulling the blanket down.
After a few minutes I manage down the medicine. My eyes are getting heavy again. And I feel the relief flood over me. Miss Kasumi rubs my back gently until I am finally asleep.
When I wake up the next morning, my stomach started to hurt again, I forced down the feeling however.
I was alone in the infirmary room once again. I look up at the ceiling and sigh. I close my eyes and hold my fists at the bottom of my rib cage together. And wait to feel the wall behind my back.
Once I do, I relax. I look down at the sheets that had been changed and I could easily see the outline of my legs. Slowly I pull the blanket off my left leg. And look at it. It is banged up tightly and cleanly.
I just sit there and control my breathing. I'm not freaking out, I'm not going to start crying. I just watch it.
I sit there for a while until I heard a knock at the door. I pull the blankets back over my leg as the door creaks open.
"Hey Kai." A voice says and I look over to see Dad standing there. He looks happy, his green eyes are sparkling. In his hands is a tray with a bowl on it.
Dad walks in and sits down in the chair next to my bed, placing the tray down on the nightstand. "How are you feeling?" He asked softly.
I'm still numb, I shake my head to clear it. "I'm ok." I lie quietly.
Dad watches me, his eyes are soft, warm, and loving. They look at me with, well it isn't pity, and I'm not sure what. Compassion.
"Kai," he starts slowly like he is going to say something, I turn and face him. But he doesn't do anything but offer me the bowl of rice.
I timidly take it and slowly take a bite. "Kai, I know there is more going on in that big head of yours than you want to tell me. And I get that ok. But, I just want to check on you, Kasumi said you seemed to be in a state of shock and fear when she saw you yesterday."
I look up at Dad as I take another bite. "I guess so." I sigh. "Who was that? That monster?" I ask slowly. I feel my eyes getting wet again so I quickly turn back to the bowl in my hands.
"His name is Norman Osborn. Does that name ring a bell?" He asks.
"Osborn does, you've told us of a Harry Osborn." I reply as I stir the bowl of rice.
"Yes, Harry is his son. Norman was injected with an odd serum that transformed him into a huge monster. The Green Goblin." Dad says his hands are folded together and his elbows are resting on his knees, his head is bowed so his blond bangs cover his eyes. "The serum helped push his already messed up mind over the edge. He attacked the SHIELD Helicarrier and caused it to be blown up. Also costing a scientist by the name of Curt Connors, his right arm."
Dad took a deep breath and let it out. "We ran into him many times after that, each time he was stronger than the last. He perfected the venom symbiote, which he used to keep me, your mom, Kasumi, and Hiroshi busy while he hunted you and Hope. And at one point he used the same serum that turned him into the Goblin on me and the rest of the team, besides Spiderman."
I look up from my eating, I could tell this was a painful memory for Dad even without using my powers. "You've never told us about that." I comment.
Dad looks up at me and smiles. "I know I didn't. I didn't think I needed to tell you. I never imagined that it would come up. It's not exactly something the team talks about much, it's a painful memory, even if things did turn out ok in the end."
Dad bows his head again studding his hands. "Not much later, Goblin acquired a magic artifact The Siege Perilous, which is now kept here. He used a second villain, Electro, to charge it going across many other parallel worlds until he had enough DNA from other world's Spidermans to make himself unstoppable. Spiderman did defeat him and he lost all memory of being The Green Goblin and his hatred for Spiderman, but, something must have happened."
Dad looked up at me and let out another heavy sigh. "Kai, that is everything I know."
"Where is he now?" I ask softly.
Dad looks at me like I have grown a second head. "He is being watched over in The Heart of the Heaven. Tiger's Beautiful Daughter is watching him right now. She asked how you were doing. She and Aman were the ones who rescued the two of you."
I nod. My stomach hurts again. I hold it laying back down in bed.
"Kai," Dad says, looking at me with a small smile as he took the bowl.
"Are you really sure you ok?" he asks me.
I turn on my side so I don't have to look at him. "Yes dad, I'm ok." I sigh.
"Alright." He touches my shoulder gently. "Get some rest."
I can hear him leaving and once I am sure he was gone, I buried my head into a pillow and cried myself to sleep.
