I could tell that the gas was in the air as soon as I woke up (again). I felt powerless. It's not a good feeling. It totally sucks. I felt like a normal New Yorker now. I hated normalcy. Freak'in loathed it.

"So, did you do that just for fun, or..."

Doc Ock ignored me. I wasn't surprised.

After a few moments of silence, I tried to fly. I hovered above the ground, but fell down a minute later. I hovered an inch or two. I stayed up longer.

"Hey, Mr. Mean Guy?" I called.

"VAT!" He screamed with a weird accent.

"Sorry! I just wanted the newspaper! I didn't know that was a crime! Wait...I'm saying that to a wanted criminal. How ironic."

"I'll get you your damn newspaper! Just don't interrupt my work you annoying girl!"

"If you didn't want me to interrupt you, you should of made these walls sound proof, genius!"

He threw a copy of The Daily Bugle at me and slammed the door, locking it shut with a smirk on his face. I swear, I'll wipe that smirk off his face one day...

On the cover was a picture of the FF's Headquarters. The cover said: Fantastic Four and Spider-Man Announce the Abduction of St. Jimmy

Yes! They all knew! They'd save me soon! They have to! If they know, they'll start looking for me!

I flipped inside and started to read.

The world-famous Fantastic Four, along with New York's web-slinging hero Spider-Man, announced on Saturday that the newest hero to the city, St. Jimmy, has been abducted by the wanted criminal Doctor Otto Octavious, better known as Doc Ock.

"He got away during a chase on the rooftops," Spider-Man said. "I'll do whatever it takes to make sure I find her, and that she is taken from harms way." Spider-Man was not available for further comment.

Mr. Fantastic, leader of the Fantastic Four, gave the press a well-thought out guess, much to Spider-Man's disapproval, as to what Octavious may be up to.

"Octavious is not just a wanted criminal. He is a scientist. I believe that he kidnapped Jimmy in order to find out exactly what we wanted to...where her powers originate. We all ran tests to try and help her. I believe Ocatvious is doing the same, but he will not care if Jimmy gets severely hurt in the process."

"We have to find her now, before Octavious really hurts her!" Spider-Man said, interrupting a very annoyed Mr. Fantastic. "We have to get every cop, every superhero out there looking for her! Her powers are much too destructive to be in the hands of that mad man. Plus, St. Jimmy's just a kid. She doesn't deserve to go through all that. She's not a lab rat!"

I stopped reading after it said (Cont. On page 5)

Wow...oh my gosh...that was all in the news...people read every word of that...that means they all know...Spider-Man was worried...about me! He was actually concerned about my well being. Oh my gosh. The Spider-Man. Worried about me? Were we really that good of friends?
