I woke up in a very lumpy cot. I stretched out and tried to think. I'd almost forgotten! Doc Ock! What...Where...Wait a second...
I was in some sort of chamber...there was no way out. The walls were clear, and there was a bed and a bathroom. The toilet was blocked off so you couldn't see everything. There were little holes in the tops of the wall that had tubes connected to it. The tubes ran onto the floor and to a different wall outside of this chamber, where they were connected to a whole lotta stuff. There was a wheel for god knows what, wires, buttons, blinky stuff, all that crazy shit you see in sci-fi movies.
The Doctor Octopus walked up to me.
"That Spider-Tracer you placed in you hair did seem like a hair pin...until I saw it blinking." He laughed. Ooh, that fucker!
"What do you want from me?" I demanded.
"I've been very interested in you, Jimmy. Very interested, indeed. I've been analyzing your powers from a distance. And when I saw the outbreaks of psychic energy, I knew my conclusions were correct."
"Okay, now say that again, but speak stupid-person."
"I followed you once and a while, watching your powers and your strengths."
"So...do you know who I am?" I asked him.
"No. I did not care about your personal life, and frankly, I didn't have time to."
"But...why go through all of this...just for me?"
He didn't answer me. I banged on the clear wall. "Hello! I got a feeling I'm gonna be here for a while, so ya might as well me nice!"
"You're so stupid, girl!" He snapped!
"Okay...be nice..."
"You're so stupid and clueless! You don't even realize!"
"What?" I said.
"You're powers are so strong...too strong for your age. Usually, they develop in time...I've not seen a person yet with the power you have...and you're, you're wasting it fighting crime! Do you know what your psychic abilities can do?"
I didn't answer him.
He flicked his wrist and looked at his watch. Then he walked over to that wheel I saw earlier. He started to turn it. A gas came out through those holes from the tubes. I expected pain...coughing...but nothing.
"This is a special tranquilizer gas. It almost numbs your body, so you're powers will be next to useless. I've set the computers to release the gas into your chamber every hour, so be expecting it."
"What! Hey...when will this wear off?" I snapped.
"Wait." He said.
I banged
on the glass again.
"I don't wanna wait! I've been
waiting all night. You tell me what the hell you're doing to
me!"
"It wears off every two hours, but the extra gas I'm giving you every hour will make sure it never wears off."
"Where'd you get this stuff, fat ass?"
"None of your concern."
So I sat on my cot. Just sitting there. And he watched me. Analyzing me. Now I felt like a freak show.
