Chapter 14: A Family Reunion
(New York City, Manhattan, an abandoned warehouse's underground cellar, a few days later)
The Green Goblin had found this temporary location for his hideout. He had been able to scavenge some of the technology he had developed when he was on his last grand tour through the city. He'd set up some machines to help develop his eventual plans. However, he needed to take care of a few things…
'Just have to figure out a way to get back at Parker. But how?...I could come up with a few colorful ways…yet…I'm not sure what to choose.' The Goblin mused in his mind.
The Goblin sat criss crossed on the ceiling, his claws gently tapping on his sickly green chin.
"Oh the fun I could have: perhaps dropping his aunt from a tall building on one side and perhaps his & Harry's little redhead friend on the other. Heh heh, that would make quite the game of Would You Rather? Heh heh." The Goblin chuckled.
Of course the Goblin then thought about how hard it would be to snag them while they are likely being protected by S.H.I.E.L.D. around the clock. He figured that it wouldn't work out so well.
"Well I can't leave my little friend without some entertainment…I just have to direct something new." The Goblin sighed, rubbing his temples.
Then there were footsteps on the floor above him.
'Damn, didn't think they'd find me this quickly.' The Goblin hissed in his mind.
The Goblin had hidden himself in an isolated area of Manhattan where several warehouses had been abandoned and designated to not be entered. But to be found so soon completely shocked him. However, he wasn't going to stand for it. He snarled as he rushed up to the upper floor. The Goblin growled as he leapt from the hole he'd hidden and landed on the floor. He snarled as he bared his teeth and claws like an angry wild cat.
"I know you're there! Come out! Let's not play this game!" The Goblin growled.
"Ahh, but that's the point: this is fun. Hahaha!" An unrecognizably, sickly voice laughed.
"Who are you? I don't recognize your voice. Reveal yourself!" The Goblin hissed.
"As you wish, heh heh." The voice chuckled.
From behind a large stack of crate walked out a hideous creature. It looked like the Goblin. However, it was slightly shorter than the Goblin. It had a muscular build identical to the Goblin's. The skin, however, is a burning orange. Though its eyes are a sickly green without irises or pupils. Its head had a similar shape to the Goblin's, except it had would looked like its skin had hard horns yet were still its skin. The ears aren't as long as the Goblin's, but were twisted and flatter. On its hands and feet are long, yellowish claw-like nails. Yet, like the Goblin, it had a horrible smile with a mouthful of jagged teeth. Overall, this thing looked very much like a demon from hell itself.
"Who are you?" The Goblin grunted, surprise in his voice.
"Don't you recognize me? Ahh, do I need to have a nametag or something?" The creature chuckled.
"What? What are you saying? You can't be serious?!" The Goblin scoffed.
"No Anakin, I am your son." The creature replied.
The Goblin's eyes widened in surprise. He couldn't believe it. Before him was Harry Osborn…or…whatever Harry had changed into.
"That's quite the makeover you have there." The Goblin gasped, still processing this revelation.
"Indeed! Hehe! You like it? It's not the original, but I think it works." Harry giggled excitedly, his voice a sickly cackle.
"So…this is the new you?" The Goblin said.
"What do you think? Am I a chip off the old Osborn block?" Harry replied.
"Well I must say it's quite the improvement boy." The Goblin chuckled.
Harry smiled, his yellow shark-like teeth gleaming in all their hideous glory.
"Tell me…how did you come to be…a goblin?" The Goblin asked.
"I found one of your serums in the penthouse…with a few differences with the ingredients…and here I am!" Harry answered, muscular arms spreading out to either side of him.
The Goblin grinned.
"I am ready to be your son again. Yes, it seems things will be different, but I am ready. Let us be one happy, crazy family!" Harry chuckled.
'Well, well, well…the kid came through. Heh heh, I knew he could. All he needed was a little push. Heh heh heh.' The Goblin chuckled in his mind.
The Goblin did want to twist Harry, just for kicks. Though there had always been a part of him that was curious to see if Norman's son would follow in his father's footsteps…become something new, something different.
"I must say the new design is nice. The remodel must have some perks." The Goblin chuckled.
Harry grinned then leapt upwards. He landed on a wall, gripping the concrete with his claws. The cracks spread out across the walls from where the claws dug into them. He then began crawling along the walls with his claws and strength doing the work.
"It seems you've got some tricks I never tried myself. Nice boy, you fit right into this little game of insanity. Heh heh." The Goblin chuckled.
Harry dropped to the ground and landed on both feet. He rose up and grinned at the Goblin.
"I told you: I'm ready." Harry chuckled.
"So boy…what are you ready to boy? Are you ready to walk on the other side of the mind?" The Goblin asked.
"Let's go create some mayhem and raise a little hell." Harry chuckled, grinning hideous ear to hideous ear.
The Goblin grinned.
"You're going to need a name. Any ideas?" The Goblin said.
"I like the name…Hobgoblin. And I've got a few ideas." Hobgoblin chuckled.
Both goblins began to laugh maniacally, for it was soon to be father and son bonding time.
To be continued…
