I woke up soon after that, and I mean minutes after that, and when I did, I couldn't believe what I saw.
Spider-Man!
"Spidey!" I coughed.
"There you are!" He said, running over to me. He stood at the glass, and so did I.
"I can't unlock it..."
"Don't leave me. Don't leave me." I kept saying.
"I won't. Where's Doc Ock?"
"He's...I don't know. With The Chameleon."
"No idea where he went?" He asked.
"No...and I feel fine, thanks for asking." I said annoyed.
"I was so worried about you."
"I knew you'd come get me. I read it all in the paper." I told him with pride.
"I'm here now, that's all that matters."
I felt like my spirits had been lifted high off the ground. I was flying. I was so happy, ecstatic.
"Never leave me...never leave me..."
"I won't, I won't. Have you been hiding anything from Doc Ock? Anything about your powers?"
"Why?" I asked.
"The tests...if you've been hiding some information, the stuff he put into your body could destroy you from the inside out."
I shook my head. "No, no. I've just been waiting here for something to happen."
"Are you sure? You are positive?"
"Yes! I am positive!"
"She's not lying." I heard someone say from the back.
"Yeah," Spider-Man said. "She's telling the truth."
"What? Who? What?" I was so confused.
Spider-Man got up and walked away.
"What?"
"Spider-Man has no idea where you are," Spider-Man said. "I'm not Spider-Man."
"Chameleon! Ooh you fucker!" I started to cry. I cried. My hopes of being rescued fell to the ground like a ton of bricks. I was defeated. Lost. Forgotten.
"How dare you..." I said, tears dripping from my eyes. "How DARE you! You'll pay for that! When I get out of here...I'm going to make you wish you'd never been born."
"Kid, I've been feeling that way for years."
