Chapter 26
Reaching Oscorp, Spider-Man entered through a worryingly broken window that showed clear signs of residue that he'd seen Mr. Negative leave behind. He knew right away what he was dealing with and did his best to prepare accordingly. He zipped up to the ceiling and began to crawl along it, looking around carefully. As he drew closer to the lab areas that had been off limits during the field trip which was making him even more nervous, especially as he heard two notable voices, one easily recognisable as Mr. Negative's, but the other was unfamiliar to him. He drew closer until he was perched in a corner, looking down at the scene below him. There was Mr. Negative, armed with one of the swords he'd seen other Demons using, but the other figure was rather odd, yet still menacing. A tall muscular figure with what seemed to be green skin, or more likely a body suit along with a mask in a similar form, albeit with a strange set of facial features and ears, purple armor covered various parts of his body and he stood on a strangely shaped glider. A wide smile on his face made him look even more demented.
"Well, well, what have we here...an intruder?" The figure drawled in a creepy laughing tone.
Mr. Negative glared. "I don't care what you think, freak. I am here for the one thing I'm missing for my grand design, you will not stop me!"
The other figure just laughed madly.
Spider-Man grimaced as he realized this was even worse than he thought. It seemed like there was another threat beyond Mr. Negative. Despite the fact they were not working together, it didn't make things any less dangerous. He listened in carefully, to see if he could pick anything else up.
"Now, you better stand aside, or I will be forced to destroy you." Mr. Negative snarled.
The other creature laughed darkly. "You, destroy me, Green Goblin and I thought I was crazy!"
Spider-Man decided this was enough, he needed to de-escalate this situation before it got worse.
"Hey fellas." He quipped as he leapt into the room between the two. "Mind if I cut in?"
Mr. Negative instantly reacted with rage. "Spider-Man!"
The Green Goblin seemed to take interest too. "Well, well, what's this now. I've heard of you, this just got a lot more fun."
"Hey now, guys, is this really-" Spidey began to explain when suddenly it happened.
With a roar of anger, taking aim at both Spider-Man and Green Goblin who were in a line from him, Mr. Negative slammed his sword into the ground, sending a wave of energy at them. Spider-Man quickly flipped out of the way while the Goblin simply used his glider to fly out of the way and pulled a strange pumpkin shaped device which he then pressed the top of and threw at Mr. Negative. Negative quickly dodged just as the device struck the ground and exploded.
'Bombs!?' Spidey realized in shock and horror.
This was more dangerous than he thought.
The Goblin laughed insanely. "Yes, take that."
"Don't be crazy, you'll destroy this whole place!" Spidey cried fearfully.
"Better that than letting this filth steal something!" Goblin scoffed.
Negative grimaced and raised his sword again. "I will not be denied!"
Spidey shook his head, this was not going to go well unless he did something quickly.
Hurrying into action he intercepted Negative's next attack by webbing the sword up before swinging in and kicked Negative in the face, sending him flying against the wall. He turned sharply to the Goblin who was laughing, at least until he gave the crazy fiend a face full of web, he then yanked the Goblin off his glider, making him fall to the floor which led to Spidey webbing him up. He turned to quickly web up the fire from the pumpkin bomb to extinguish it. That was when he saw something and groaned.
'You have got to be kidding me, now.'
That distraction proved to be a problem however as Negative pulled himself free and launched another attack, this one struck too quickly and sent Spider-Man flying, through a door and into another door where he hit something which made him groan. Getting to his feet he saw the tank he had hit, a strange black substance inside it. He felt a sting in his back but shook his head, he had to act quickly. As such he left the room, not seeing the crack in the case, to which a fragment of his suit and the damaged skin from the cut on his back was stuck too, before being absorbed by the black substance inside which began to change and mutate. Meanwhile Spider-Man acted and before Billy could react, Spidey had him webbed to the wall.
"What the-?"
Spider-Man dropped in front of him. "Are you crazy, still following me?! This is dangerous and you need to stop this nonsense!"
"Get me down, you can't-" Billy began.
But they were cut off by the insane laughter of the Goblin. He had found them and was laughing at Billy's current situation, much to his humiliation.
That was when Spider-Man saw Mr. Negative running for the broken window, carrying something under his arm.
"No!"
He quickly tried to web up the Goblin again before going in pursuit of Negative. The web missed the Goblin but still had a good effect, Billy was reasonably safe now. The Goblin went in pursuit of both Spider-Man and Mr. Negative. Mr. Negative leapt from the window and used his powers to escape while Spider-Man groaned as he swung out of the building and shook his head, then the Goblin emerged on his glider and spun around to face him.
"Leaving so soon!?"
Spider-Man grimaced. "I don't know who you are but seriously, this is crazy, what are you-!?"
The Goblin just laughed and even tried to attack Spider-Man but he quickly dodged and quickly began to fight back, even knocking him off the glider again but it automatically moved to catch him and the Goblin shook his head.
"Well, this has been fun. But you're right, it's crazy." The Goblin scoffed. "That freak has stolen something, ah well, better go and see what happens next, I'll be in touch!"
With that and more insane laughter, the Goblin flew away and Spider-Man sighed.
He shook his head. 'Well, this is a mess...I just hope there is a way to deal with this before things get worse.'
He shook his head and knew Billy would get free soon, he didn't have to worry about him anymore at least and so he swung off.
Finally getting free, Billy growled furiously.
"That...that bastard, he did it again!" He burst out, unable to stop himself.
He then paused however, he was unsure if he felt something, or heard it, but he felt drawn to a room to his left. He slowly made his way over to the room, inside was the tank with the black substance inside it. Billy was confused, he was drawn to this thing, unable to figure out how or why. He reached out. "What is this even-What the!?"
He had touched the tank and suddenly the substance was seeping out of the crack and began running up Billy's arm. He screamed in horror but was unable to pull away until he was completely covered with the tank now empty. The screams were cut off as the substance began to change shape and soon the room was pitch black, save for two glowing white eyes.
"Such anger, a desire for revenge, fulfil it, time for retribution. Rest easy Billy." A deep echoing guttural voice sounded. "Venom is here."
