PREVIOUS — ACT I, CHAPTER THREE — MASTERLIST — NEXT
summer has ended, and school time was now here… yeah you 100% bawled because you had unfortunately found out that Hazel went to the same school as you and when you met her after that she just kept on pushing it, kept on running into you when you went out with your friends out of costume and the whole attention from her was just simply getting too much. Felicia had noticed everything then it went into a domino effect with how the rest of the friend group noticed.
when you walked into the building you saw Otto at his locker which all of your lockers were put into a line together because you had always requested every year for your classes and lockers to get in line together which was nice. when you opened the locker you put some of your things inside the thing then you heard it. "hey, [Name!]" you heard that agitating GRATING voice.
"hey.. Hazel…" you forced a smile looking at her, she didn't seem to notice your discomfort and she started to talk your eat off, "oh, well, look at the time! me and Otto have science together! ah, I'm so sorry but we have to go.." you strained out, before running off with Otto to go to science class, once you sat down in the seat, Otto sat down next to you as you took a deep breath in and out.
"you should set some boundaries with her, or you should stop being nice to her, hazel's attention and want for friendship is unwanted by you so why do you keep feeding into her delusions." Otto whispered to you, he was right of course, but you just didn't have it in you to be mean to Hazel, she seemed like she needed a friend and you've been there before, In a less creepy way though. you nodded, "I will do it at some point I just… " you replied, he gave you a look. "You better do so." he said.
week after week she tried to insert herself into your life, she ended up finding out you Uncle and Aunt's phone number and she would constantly ask if you and her could hang out which Uncle Ben and Aunt May always said that you couldn't go out, which was perfect cover for you when you'd be out and about fighting crime. it was just really hard to be juggling your life constantly when all she'd do was revolve her whole f*cking life around you constantly. it was tiring, and it made everything harder and harder.
when you went to Jason's grave that night you just slumped down next to it in costume as you just started to cry and tell him everything that was going on, and how tired of it you were, it was hard to just do this constantly, so you just continued to cry lifting your mask up so you can not get your mask all dirty because you did not want to clean that, "I got an eyebrow piercing so.. that's a plus.. right?" you sniffled, "i— I just don't know what to do Jay.. everything I do it feels like I'm being idolized and I don't want that… I don't want to be idolized by anyone at all!— Otto told me to set boundaries with her but its still… its still hard to do so because shes.. she seems like shes had no friends in her whole life and being… whatever it is to her is just not my thing right now…" you whimpered.
after a bit you pulled your mask back up and shot out a web as you shot out your webs swinging to get back to the ware house, once you got inside you picked up your phone from the counter and saw the amount of messages that were there, it was all from Hazel asking you 15 thousand questions, you just put her on silent and walked to go up the stairs to your room, when you flopped onto the bed you just passed out immediately because of the whole thing.
the next day when you stepped foot into the school there was Hazel, her bangs were styled to be like those heart or frog bangs Jason had, she had clothes like him and a copy of pride and prejudice in her hands. "what are you doing?" you asked being very direct this time, she smiled at you as if she was doing nothing wrong, "oh, I'm doing nothing wrong Ladybug!" she smiled, you stared at her in utter silence, "what the hell is wrong with you?" you asked again, she looked utterly confused on why you were asking her that. "I don't know what you're talking about." she smiled, the smile becoming more strained as she fidgeted some more, "'i don't know what you're talking about'. no, you know exactly what you're doing!" you hissed, Hazel looked shocked that you'd even imply that.
she giggled nervously, "you don't just get to walk in here in that outfit and pretend nothings wrong!" you yelled, Hazel's brows furrowed as if she was trying to act confused, she just smiled nervously, "you are nothing but a good for nothing asshole who's trying to tarnish Jason's memory!" you cried out, you felt tears prick at your eyes.
"i wont stand for this! you don't just get to play dress up and call me things that only he called me! so go fuck off and find someone else to jack off to!" you shoved her away, she looked shocked, then angry at you being upset at her, "you're awfully protective over someone whose dead [Name] don't you think that's weird or is that some kink you have?" she taunted getting upset at you while she was the one dressing like him and acting like him.
"the fuck did you just say to me? my best friend is dead and i cant speak to him or see him anymore hazel! just because you want to pursue a friendship with me doesn't mean you can go out and around saying that I'm wrong for mourning him! you don't get it hazel you never will, my best friend is gone and you just want to be best friends with me when i cant stand being around you for even a moment!" you yelled, your breath hitched slightly as you thought about Jason.
"we are not friends and we will never be friends. plus if you ever try to act or dress like him again i will kill you." you said before slamming her into a locker and walking off. when you got into science you just sat down and put you head into your hands your breath started to shake bit by bit, then before you knew it tears started to fall as you cried more and more, of course you kept it quiet but it was just hard to have that happen and to not be able to do anything about it unless it were to be a yelling match, you heard people file into the room and there Otto was walking on in but you just didn't look up unwilling to just look at anything at the moment. the main reason for that was the feeling of your eyes burning from the tears. Otto sat right next to you, he looked at you for one moment and decided to join you in laying your head down on the table world! yayyy…
"what happened?" he asked keeping his tone of voice down to a mere mumble. you turned your head to look at him quietly, "Hazel, just… dressed up as him and held a Pride and Prejudice copy.." you sniffled, the whole situation didn't feel great but you'd have to persevere or whatever. he looked shocked for a moment then his brows furrowed as his expression got serious, "are you serious?" he asked before looking at your face and noticing you were more than serious about the whole situation, "oh, God I knew she had some crazy screws loose.. well, I'll tell the others about it for you and now we have a serious enemy in school now." he tried to joke with you to make you feel better.
you nodded in reply and he got up and grabbed tissues for you because you needed something for comfort at the moment. "it was about time you did something you know," he said softly, patting your arm before he handed you the tissues. he then sat down calmly and poked your arm some more. when the science teacher came in you looked up immediately she told everyone to grab their things from their bags, and what not. when you grabbed your textbook it was a biology text book which you were more better at for some magical reason, anything with engineering was something you were more… bad at… believe it or not, yet it was just something you beat yourself up over which Otto would take over all of the work in there even if you weren't in the same class together. it was just something that could not be controlled and you always have felt bad when he would do all of the work for you.
in return you did all of the work he wasn't the best at, anyway, you stared at the teacher as she mentioned something about radio active stuff and what places were radioactive, one girl said Chernobyl which made you mad, not because she was right, but because with how OFTEN she named the place, it was at least TWICE— no FIVE times each day already. that's what made it bad, like it IS an answer but at this point its an overused one. like there are other things that are radioactive, like those clocks that the radium girls painted, there's also Hiroshima, Fukushima Daiichi, Hanford, The Polygon (Kazakhstan), Lake Karachai, Mailuu-Suu, Sellafield, Ramsar, Goiania, Siberian Chemicial Combine, the radium girls bodies, Marie Curie, people who consumed radium or anything like that, people who drank radithor, the places where uranium was found at. there were so many places and so many people who died due to radiation but Chernobyl is the only one worth knowing??
plus she knew about Chernobyl because you first mentioned it, plus she got the story behind the place wrong, and you corrected her, ever since then Chernobyl was her go-to answer. yeah, you did not like hearing that answer half the time, it for sure wasn't a bad one it was just irritating to hear the same answer over and over again.
when lunch rolled around you sat at the lunch table, you all were talking and yapping to each other, you were complaining about something, the whole group knew what went down with Hazel earlier that day, yet Felicia noticed that Hazel was more… angry for some reason, and it was very clear with the reason why but Felicia expected Hazel to look more… humiliated instead of angry, because anyone in their right mind would be upset for being humiliated In-front of a crowd, but Hazel didn't seem to understand what she did was wrong, and that's what made the whole thing suck. at some point Felicia got up and she said she was going to ask Hazel on how she felt on the whole thing.
you all nodded giving Felicia the go ahead to ask Hazel why she was angry. when Felicia walked she asked a few people where Hazel went, they all pointed her in the direction where Hazel was which Felicia thanked them and continued to walk, when she found Hazel she just stood next to the sitting girl, who was clearly fuming on what happened, "hey, Hazel why are you so… angry?" Felicia started with, Hazel looked right up at her and glared across the room to look at you. "[Name] is the problem, I HATE her, she had the gall to yell at me for dressing this way when I want to be friends with her…" Hazel stabbed the food with her fork, Felicia hummed staring at Hazel, "well, since I am [Name]'s friend and I've known her a week after her best friend died well… dressing up as him and trying to act like him isn't the way to go, he died and she can't get him back, just seeing you in that outfit with that book just… got to her, you know?" Felicia asked, she was trying to get Hazel to see it from your perspective. which was no problem but it still didn't seem to click with her. "I DON'T CARE! she should've known that I wanted to do for her, she probably didn't know her own best friend, no wonder he's dead, he probably died because of her because shes a good for nothing ^!" Hazel yelled, Felicia blinked just staring at her for a moment.
"what is wrong with you? he didn't commit he was at a place and died due to a gas leak or something, you don't even know her at all Hazel, I came here to understand your side and you ask why you're upset. but also no matter which side is right or wrong, it was and is wrong of you to play dress up with someone that died and that person is specifically close to the person you want to befriend." Felicia hissed, Hazel seemed to get more mad at the whole thing most likely was that she still thought she was the one in the right plus she believed she just did nothing wrong, when the thing she did was on so many levels of wrong. "I don't care about that, [Name] showed her true colors! I want her dead!" Hazel yelled, Felicia groaned and just decided to walk away because dealing with this situation would only make it worse and worse. Felicia wasn't planning on doing anything else with the whole thing at this point in time.
when she came back to the table, she sat down, "yep, Hazel does not understand what she did is wrong, oh, also she wants you dead [Name]" Felicia groaned, Otto just nodded, "Okay, okay at least shes gaining an original thought." Otto hummed, you just stared at him and nodded.
"yep, life is great trust me!" you smiled, Max just thought for a moment, he looked up at everyone, "well, knowing Hazel shes kinda legit on what she says, you may need to like genuinely watch your back [Name]." Max murmured.
"oh," you hummed, everyone else got quiet for a moment. you all looked at each other for a moment, "well, we stick together and we make sure the person who got us into this vigilante crap wont die and we'd be damned if we let that happen." Eugene hummed, you just stared at everyone, "what in the my little pony…" you mumbled that seemed to get at least a chuckle out of everyone. "but… Thank you." you hummed, they all nodded smiling a bit, the subject then changed pretty fast, then before you knew it the bell rang and you all went into class.
in History you just stared at what was being shown as the teacher spoke on some genocides that had happened in the past, personally you loved to learn about genocides because you wanted to know how to prevent it in the future, you loved learning about everything serious in history. some people disliked history because it was too political, but at the end of the day, everything is political you cant really do much about it. so if they only shame history for how political it is then how about you shame absolutely everything the world hands to you. mostly everything has an undertone of some meaning, plus lots of media is political so it has always been a normal thing you didn't really care about.
anyway, when the school day ended you were walking towards the entrance so you could go home like what everyone else was doing. once you stepped foot outside your spider sense came out of nowhere to warn you about something, then you heard running behind you, so you ducked just at the right time before side stepping, you moved your leg off to the side slower than you expected then the person who tried to tackle you tripped and fell after you moved away from the entrance. glancing back you saw Hazel right there and a trash can on the ground Infront of her and it had water falling out of it, "what the heck?" you yelped unsure on how to feel on the whole situation at hand. there Hazel was in all her glory with her hair and absolute mess and the pride and prejudice copy skidded to your feet, you picked up the book and opened it, the copy had two names on the side and a small doodle that was more than familiar to you, when you saw the doodle and names it got painfully obvious on who it belonged to.
it belonged to you, the copy in itself used to be Jason's but he always called it his and your own copy, like you both were the owners to the copy, not just one person. staring at the book you looked up to stare at Hazel, "you stole my book too?" you asked firmly, even more upset. first she decided to dress like your late best friend, tries to act like him, calls you by a nickname he gave you, steals your copy of Pride and Prejudice, talks to you like you've known eachother for an eternity, then she acts very parasocial even though you go to the same school and are on a first name basis.
you both weren't friends, you knew that, you thought she understood that in some sort of vague way, but it seems like you were wrong. "are you kidding me?? I swear on everything around us if I find one little writing on it one little doodle that wasn't there before, I swear you're done for!" you yelled, putting the book in your bag, it honestly hurt that she took something that was so dear to you, so completely dear to you. it made you even more angry than anything, the whole thing was making you feel… a lot was an understatement. this was your fault, that was what was starting to enter your mind.
if you just told her from the get go that she was being weird and creepy with you then none of this would've happened… right..? that feeling was getting worse, when you looked back up you saw her fist moving towards your face, you dodged pretty quickly and she skidded to the floor falling on her face, the people around you stopped and started watching the scene Infront of them. many pulled their phones out to take a video. you didn't exactly care about that at the moment, you were more worried on what Hazel was trying to do. she got back up, her nose was bloody probably broken— "Hazel are you okay? we should get you some ice." you said on instinct, but she flung herself at you again which you grabbed both of her wrists, her standing was unstable which was what you noticed, "stop pretending like you care you snake!" she yelled.
"oh, I'm the snake?? says the one who dressed up like my dead best friend, tried to act like him, followed me around outside of school, and you stole my book!" you replied, it just simply upset you when she acted like she was the one in the right. the people watching in the back let out some 'oooh's, Hazel started to scream and she tried to kick you but out of instinct you put one leg in between hers and knocked her down, she tripped over the trashcan and fell into the trash water which you didn't mean to do.
her fall took you by surprise and she just kept getting up and she grabbed something out of her bag, it made your spider sense tingle, once she showed what she was holding, you saw that she was holding onto some scissors, she lunged at you with them in her hands, "everyone please back up!" you yelped, moving to grab her wrists again as everyone screamed a bit and they ran into the building, probably to get a teacher but some stayed to film, you personally never thought the day would come when you'd get attacked with some scissors which was VERY dangerous, those things were really sharp too.
this fight made one thing very clear, she was not okay in the head, which was very obvious from the start but now everyone knew she was more than crazy at this point. she was still pushing to hurt you but you continued to keep a firm hold on her wrists, "you are a mean person and you don't deserve to walk on this earth! I'll help you see your best friend again!" she laughed, you just stared at her in utter shock not knowing how to respond.
"what are you talking about??" you snapped at her, at some point a teacher came and a school security guard came they had to pull the scissors out of hazel's hands as she kicked and screamed at everyone and everything. a teacher moved Infront of you as the officer took care of a screaming Hazel, the other people put their phones away immediately. the whole thing was just messy.. no it was more than messy— if that was even possible, the teacher guided you to your aunts car, "hey Mrs. Parker, there was a situation with your niece and another girl and it got really bad, the whole thing will be taken care of but tomorrow [Name] may need to get pulled away from her classes." the teacher told your aunt, she seemed shocked for a moment but you just got pushed into the car as the teacher walked away to go see what was going on.
"do you need to stay at.." aunt may trailed off, you knew what she meant. you looked at her wide eyed, "Aunt May…? I need to tell you something really important.." you muttered.
she looked at you calmly, "what is it [Name]?" she asked softly not even going to say a thing to push it immediately. "this is a really bad idea…" you mumbled, glancing back up you made eye contact with her, "you know that Web-Spinner vgilante?" you asked reluctanly, Aunt May nodded keeping that gentle look. "well, that's me. I work with some people and there's a… warehouse used as a base and it has enough rooms for us all so I have a room there… can you… drop me off there?" you asked, Aunt May seemed shocked by what you had just told her, she then looked forward and sighed, "kid, there's a lot of criminals here in Gotham… and you usually take on the big guys at least that's what the news said… but are you sure that is something you want to continue doing for the world?" she asked, making eye contact with you. "either option you choose then i'll support you.. I just need you to be careful [Name]… you cant save everyone and that's okay… you don't need to save everyone in the world to prove that you can be successful." Aunt May responded, she looked at you softly, the whole thing was a shock, you'd at least thought she'd be upset or tell you to stop doing the vigilante stuff.
"well, I don't plan on stopping… I have gotten in way to deep already," you hummed.
Aunt May nodded in response, "well, kid.. wheres this warehouse you've mentioned?" she asked you, glancing at her you told her exactly where the place was and she started driving there taking some hidden ways to get there sneakily, when you both got there she parked in an alleyway locking the car as she hopped out to follow you. when you opened up the door to the place you let her inside and she got to see the whole place, "wow, you kids really rehabilitated this place…" she hummed, staring at some of the phones which were put in a bowl next to the door, she recognized the who owned each one. along with the shoes by the door.
"so, its you and them?" she asked, staring at you quietly. you looked at her and smiled cheekily, she did follow you as you toured her around the place, her suspicions on who the people there were solidified when she saw the names and photos on the fridge.
"sorry for not telling you sooner.." you hummed shyly, Aunt May just stared at you and sighed shaking her head, "[Name], its fine. its no big deal, its hard to take a guess on what the reaction will be…" she smiled, you stared at her face for a moment. then you thought about what to say, before shrugging, "well, Uncle Ben found out quite fast if I do say so myself, but what he doesn't know is that theres a whole base and team for this type of thing." you said without a care in the world. now that's what got Aunt May in shock, "he knew???" she asked very alarmed, you just stared at her in silence for a moment. "oops…" you murmured, aunt may just started to laugh at your reaction to her reaction.
"kid, don't worry its not your fault, its just really surprising he found out first since… he can sometimes be more on the slower end with things." she smiled, you just stared at her some more thinking about if you should take her to the underground area where most definitely everyone was getting ready for the vigilante work. but also your suit was down there so it'd be pretty useless if you didn't go down there and get changed, after all you and them had some stretching to do. "Well, I'm going to go home and tell your uncle everything if that's okay with you [Name]." she smiled, you nodded and watched her leave but you followed after her in the end.
once she got to the car safe and sound thats when you left to go back inside. when you entered the building again you made sure to lock the door and you walked to the middle of the room and stepped on the small metal ring around the middle, then you typed in the code before it went back down, you stepped back and watch the elevator lift up, you walked into the elevator listening to it close as it started to desend.
once it did you waited till it hit the bottom and it then opened up and you walked on out of the elevator, "hey!" you hummed, everyone else looked at you Felicia smiled and ran on over to you, "I brought my aunt over here… she and Uncle Ben know about… this whole ordeal… I felt like it was right to tell her." you told them shyly, they all looked at you and Felicia snorted, she patted your back softly. "Don't worry so much Webs, out of everyone who could know, the most trustable ones would be your aunt and uncle, along with Jason… but he's kinda…" Felicia hummed, you nodded in response unsure of what to say.
"anyway, everyone get dressed we have a long night ahead of us!" Max called out, you moved away from Felicia and ran to the bathroom down there and got changed as fast as you could, once suited up you walked back out. you all moved to sit in a circle in the spinny chairs down there, "okay, so there's a whole illegal trade of this stuff called Goublin Green going around, its meant to make people smarter but also with the wrong dosage or using too much every day is what makes it all fall down. the stuff in general isn't the greatest. its very very flawed and dangerous. I also did somehow manage to get in contact with the bat from the thing he gave you [Name] he's letting us do this on our own. this is our run down on how the team will operate with the same goal in mind." Max explained, you all nodded.
"okay what will our jobs be?" Eugene asked, Max looked at him and then he looked at Dmitri.
"me and dmitri made this plan, Otto will be here and making gadgets as usual but the gadgets needed will be directly for this whole plan to find the Goublin Green, Eugene you will sweep the streets and question the gangs who have their hands on that stuff, Felicia you will check over anyone who is funding any of this stuff, Dmitri you need to gain information, and [Name] you gotta find the direct source of this stuff, I have warehouses counted off of suspicious activity with the Goublin Green." Max told you all, everyone of course nodded, you all put your hands out in the middle, Otto added one of his tentacles, "okay, one, two, three, Team!" you all said together before getting up and moving to Otto's lab to grab some things like a updated wristband for you, but everyone else finally got their own, "this is an extra contact thing, and it has a map, this right here is an SOS type of thing, which its meant to contact the bat, or anyone close to that is here in Gotham." Otto explained happily, you all put the device on and started to do the practice drills in the biggest room in the basement area.
once it got dark enough out you all snuck out, "good luck everyone" you told them before leaving to go do what you were told to do, it was pretty simple for the most part, many people were out and about, you ran into some people who were selling Goublin Green, and marked the spot for Eugene to get, and you just swung away finding what warehouses you could find, there was not much of any guards in the area. you squinted and swung to get closer, moving towards the window of the place you quickly found out they were only guarding the interior, making the Goublin green. you checked if the window was unlocked and once you found out it was infact unlocked. these people need to learn how to lock windows, or at least to block them off.
you crouched down listening to them talk, then you tapped on the device in order to record the conversation, you heard them talking about doing a mass selling, and surprisingly found out the black mask had nothing to do with the spread of Goublin Green, so this was very obviously not his workings, for some reason it relieved you, maybe you'd have to figure that out some other time, it was simply just a not right now type of thing at the moment.
once you gathered enough information you decided to show yourself but first you took out the bigger guys, the ones making the Goublin Green didn't seem to notice. too busy talking among themselves to notice that you were taking out all of the stronger guys. which… unlucky them. once they were all knocked out you decided that it was finally time to strike.
getting up on a crate you stared at them, "hello, may I talk to the person who started this whole.. smuggling thing?" you hummed, they looked at you so unbelievablely fast, shocked. "What the—" you webbed them up before they could get any more word in, "electro, got one place marked, they are all webbed up, its safe to call to the location." you hummed, you heard typing in the background, "got it, sending a call right on in." Max hummed, you then left from where you came and swung away, you patrolled a little longer before going back to home base. you were the first one there, Otto was working on something as you gave him a sample of the Goublin Green you got your hands on. "you got a sample???? THIS IS AMAZINGGG" Otto yelled, then he started to maniacally laugh.
you took off your mask and walked off putting the sweaty costume in the washing machine, the wrist cuff's were put back into your locker, when you came back to Otto he was taking a small sample and looking at the thing, "hrm… oh! [Name], we need to do some tests on your whole durablility and powers at some point, everyone else's test runs are done already so you're the next one." he muttered, as he concentrated on his work.
"yep, yep I know Otto.." you hummed.
"you better know." he responded, you smiled and walked off to go to your room so you can sleep in peace. once you got into your room you decided to take a shower first, once that was done you went straight to bed and passed out when you woke up you saw your phone right on the nightstand, Felicia probably brought it over to your room once she got home. letting out a huge yawn you got up and went to the closet and grabbed some of the clothes in there and put it on. the jeans were low-rise since whenever you went to go thrift with Felicia she got everyone clothes she knew would look great on you all. anyway, you then grabbed a shirt and put it on, it was a halter top, the color was a color that looked really good on you, dang.. Felicia absolutely knows what colors are complementary. you put on some makeup, and got a necklace on along with some bracelets. you then grabbed the jacket that you took from Jason's room a long time ago, Bruce did call and he said that you could keep it, so you did keep the jacket, when you walked out of the room you walked down the steps which everyone was in the kitchen eating some food.
"how'd everything go on your guy's ends last night." you asked, Eugene looked fine, Dmitri had his head slumped onto the table, Otto looked energized, Max looked calm and content, and Felicia looked a-okay too. "Dmitri's fine he wanted everything to be absolutely perfect. but his whole act was not… the best he's done." Felicia said for Dmitri, Eugene nodded looking back at Dmitri before looking back up to you. "yeah…" Eugene mumbled.
you all made sure to eat some food first before running off to go to school, you of course took the faster route, "my whole body hurts.." Dmitri whined, Felicia looked back at him and you followed her gaze. "is it the walking or how you got a whole beat down last night?" you asked, Dmitri glared at you, "ha, ha." he responded sarcastically. you just smiled at him and continued to walk through the streets, you turned back around to look Infront of you.
you all continued to walk, once you got to the school you walked into the building but a teacher stopped you from continuing to walk, you just sighed and followed the teacher into the principals office, there were officers and there was Hazel in one seat, and you were guided into a different seat. an officer stoop in-between you and Hazel, she was sending you a death glare. you just looked ahead not making eye-contact with her.
the principal asked for her side of the story and she gave her side of the story which it was exactly honest and it was exactly how everything happened, then when it was your turn you waited for a moment unsure of what to say at the moment. "uhm, so me and Hazel met at a party, she was getting picked on so I helped her but after that she started showing up in places where I was at when I was with my friends.." you started to explain. they looked at you, one officer was writing everything down. "and when school started she just started sitting with us, which wasn't any problem but like everytime she'd ask for my number, my aunt and uncle's number, and then she'd just continue on and on. talking to me everyday, knocking at my bedroom window when I was getting changed, sometimes she'd try to follow me to the grave yard, I've always went there once every week to talk to one of the graves because my best friend had passed away." you murmured, you felt your cheeks heat up as you looked down to your lap. they all nodded which Hazel looked like she wanted to interject and explain why she did what she did. but also she actually just skimmed over the big stuff.
"your late best friend was.. Jason Todd correct?" the principal asked you.
"yes." you confirmed, they nodded and they looked at you so you could continue recounting what happened, "at first I wanted to be kind and nice to her but she just continued to push and pry at everything in my whole life, like who Jason was to me when it can be found at any news source or whatever. One of my friends told me to talk to Hazel and to set boundaries with her.. but I felt like it was the wrong thing to do when she seemed so desperate to have a friend. so I put up with it but once she started to get touchy it put more of a strain on how I felt, she asked me to go out to watch movies with her, but when I would look at the plotline I found out quickly they were all rather.. explicit in some sort of way." you continued, you finally brought your gaze up to look at Hazel. she seemed like she was fuming.
"then one day she came to school in an outfit that Jason would wear, she tried to parrot his voice in some way. her bangs were made to look like his too… she then held a Pride and Prejudice copy that I later found out was mine, it had doodles and small little notes In the page he and I had made. but at the moment I didn't know that, she tried to act like him and thats what set me off, I yelled at her and I did nothing else, I knew she was upset only because of how humiliating that would be but I was tired of everything that was going on so I just snapped at her. at lunch my friend walked over to talk to her to try and get her side, along with that she found out that hazel quite literally wanted me dead. which I thought nothing of it because.. I thought she meant that in the more non-literal sense, but at the end of the day I found out it wasn't a… non-literal." you recounted the events trying to keep your eyes down, the whole situation in itself wasn't stressing you out, you knew you could handle something like that on your own so it wasn't a panic type of thing.
"I didn't throw the first punch but what set Hazel off was me taking my book back so then it just escalated from there, I did make sure she didn't hurt anyone and when she tried to kick me that's the only time I really pushed her," you explained, the officers nodded and after a bit of talking you decided to press charges and Hazel was confirmed to be expelled that day, you of course felt bad for what happened but you had to tell yourself that it wasn't your fault.
the whole day and week went by rather normally. You told Jason's grave what had happened, and of course, you got absolutely no reply which was whatever. you stopped expecting some ghost of him to respond, when you all were at the basement of the warehouse, you just talked to each other. Max was reading the progress report (you had to make a progress report for Batman because he wanted to know how you guys were doing). Tonight was possibly going to be the last day to get the job done. Well, actually it was the estimated end of the work before Batman had to take over for you guys.
Which that whole deal was what you all were fine with that, Batman was very unwilling to let you guys run free with this type of thing, you all talked out the plan for that night and you left the place swinging off to the last warehouse you had to go to. something in you was telling you to not go and rush into the whole thing, so you did stop some crooks a bit. then you had to psyche yourself back up and once you got to the warehouse something felt wrong. so you tapped on your comm link, "hey, guys?" you murmured swinging up to a gargoyle and sitting there.
"yeah?" they all symontainously asked, You sighed as relief flooded Your system. glancing back to the warehouse You saw a hooded figure walk on inside of the warehouse, "I'm having a very bad feeling about this warehouse, and I think my suspicions have been confirmed…" You told them, You heard Max curse. "I got into the camera's into that warehouse and there's like huge tanks of that stuff… and… wait, is that Hazel???" he yelped, Your eyes widened. everyone symotainously said "WHAT?" all together.
"this warehouse may need to be a batman thing, but you can grab Hazel and web her up." Max said, everyone didn't exactly agree with that from what you could hear, Felicia sounded unsure on the idea, "this whole thing is how we can prove ourselfs Electro, it would suck to call it quits when a building is full of that stuff, Web's can contain it just fine without our help, shes done it so many times to count— Webs if anyhting goes wrong then we'll come to help okay?" Felicia said. Max sounded unsure but when everyone agreed then he sighed and agreed to the whole thing, "fine, we'll do it on our own but if anything goes wrong then we call Batman." Max finally said.
everyone cheered and You just swung to the warehouse, opening a window and sliding on in, Hazel was there in big oversized clothes, she had cuffs on her wrists, but yet that seemed to not deter her, she climbed up to the ledge of the neon green goublin green liquid, "hey, if I remember correctly you're not meant to be here miss." You showed Yourself, she looked at You she glared at You for a moment, "what do you want? I can be here whenever I want, my dad is the one making this stuff." she said carelessly.
"huh, well, why are you here?" You asked, she rolled her eyes as if that was obvious. You kept quiet for a moment, eyes trained on her as a whole, "I'm here to become smarter than [Name] Parker, she sucks and I hate her! and if I become smarter then her I can find out why she's playing victim!" hazel hissed. You were just kinda taken aback on why Hazel said that, like yes You knew she was crazy but what You didn't know was that she had it in her to holler about You 'playing victim'.
"and you cant stop me!" she yelled before jumping into the goey liquid, You ran over concerned, You hoped that she was okay but You weren't going to take a bet on her being just fine and dandy, but You weren't going to jump in to grab her since You still didn't know of what that liquid was capable of. so You decided to click on the call Batman button and when he answered You just rushed an explanation because what the heck, "whatever you do don't jump into it web-spinner, I'm in the middle of doing something so I wont be able to help you right away. get away from the tank and call your team." he told You, it made sense on why You should do that along with why he was telling You what to do, You were still a kid and new to this even if You've been doing this whole thing longer than Your teammates. "o-okay.." You whimpered, before hanging up and calling the team to get over to where You were at. "hey, uh so Hazel jumped in and I may need backup just in case." You told the team, before backing away from the tank, You still saw hazel's body inside of the green goo, it was starting to twitch. "on it!" eugene responded very quickly, "I'm coming over right now!" Felicia said, You heard typing in the background which was max, "otto's going over there too. Dmitri are you able to run over to help them out?" max asked. You all heard a hum, "yep! running over there now!" he responded.
"good!" Max then said, it took a few minutes but everyone got there, when looking at the glass of the tub— You realized that Hazel's body was starting to contort and it sounded like her bones were breaking. she was also starting to grow bigger, "its…" Otto trailed off. Dmitri stared at what was going on, "everyone get in your places, we've practiced this too many times to count!" You all followed what was commanded You used Your webs to get up on the fence thing, You crouched down waiting for something to happen.
Otto had his metal leg thing's get the shield mode out, Felicia got her 'claws' ready, Eugene bent down getting into a jumping position, and Dmitri stood back getting the gauntlets that Otto made him ready, You placed a small recording module on one of the metal bars so it can record the fight, "recording module set up," You told them. watching the body in the goo was weird to see, "keep Hazel inside of the building, the outside cams show a civilian walking close to the warehouse." Max informed You all through the comm, "thanks electro." You hummed.
there was choked screaming in the goop, as there was a louder cracking and breaking sound, You waited for a moment and You all saw the body grow bit by bit, after a good five minutes she climbed out of the goop, she was a bright green, her eyes were red, her hair was more straw-like, the oversized orange clothes were hanging by a thread, "oh my goodness this is the best learning experience on what happens with this stuff!!" Otto yelled joyously.
"Doc Ock!!—" You all groaned.
"what?? I'm being true to myself!—"
"not the time!" Dmitri yelled.
Hazel opened her mouth and roared, at You all then she threw the first punch, her tail lashed around, oh she had a tail now— when the tail went in Your direction You jumped out of the way and moved to a pillar, You distracted her a bit as the team waited for the right moment, "go, go, go!" Dmitri yelled.
the whole team ran at Hazel, Eugene was the first to kick her as Otto grabbed a scale and put it in his pocket, it made Hazel let out a screetch as she moved to fly up to the ceiling, You hopped down to the ground and You attached Your webs to her legs, Otto then used his metal octo arms to grab onto Hazel. You attached the webs to the metal pillairs around then You attached the webs to the wings on her back, You kept trying to pull her down until help could come.
You saw everyone else attack her as You and Otto kept her from flying off, when she was finally pulled down to the ground You saw her tail move, You did Your best to keep her down for longer but that was easier said than done. yelping You webbed her tail down and once she was down right Infront of You all she didn't move. "boom, at least its all done now!" Eugene chirped turning away from Hazel with everyone, she looked at You and grabbed You, yelling she flew on out, the movements more messy and unsure as she held You. once out of the warehouse she slammed You onto the ground stepping on Your right ankle using all her weight, You screamed, and connected Your webs to her face and slam her head into the ground, everyone ran out trying to get to You.
Hazel picked You up and chuckled You to a building, You fell Infront of a red haired girl that went to Your highschool, "h-hey, you may need to run.." You smiled, Your voice strained, her eyes went wide as she bent down checking Your ankle, "you're hurt." she said.
"yeah maybe a little." You muttered, the girl looked back to the team ganging up on Hazel so she wouldn't be a threat to anyone. "may I see? also what happened?" the blue eyed girl asked, "that's Hazel Osborn, she jumped into the goop and frog-man decided to jinx it when she went down." You informed her, the red-headed girl took off Your shoes and peeled off Your sock, when she saw the swelling of the wound it made her pause, "its most likely broken. not bad, bad but it is bad enough to keep you limping for a few weeks." she said softly, checking over Your wound for a bit longer, "I need you to stay down." she told You, keeping quiet You nodded.
"can you please go and get to safety?" You asked quietly, she nodded and she got up and ran off but she first got You leaned up against the wall, when she was gone You got up and jumped into the fight so You could help Your friends, it took like an hour to get Hazel down and not fighting anymore, when Batman's car showed up he walked over to You and helped You stand. he looked at the scuffed team, and You all just looked at eachother. Otto moved first, "are you okay Web-Spinner? you really got thrown around like a ragdoll. I need to make you more durable things—" he was about to go on a rant but Felicia stopped him, putting a hand on his shoulder, their gaze turned back to Batman, "so.. what'll happen now?" Felicia asked.
"you kids did good on your first run, but nextime you need to make sure the person your fighting isn't getting back up." Batman told You all. Dmitri nodded looking back up, he thought for a moment, "alright we'll do better next time we promise." Dmitri promised for the team.
You kept silent just focusing on keeping weight off of Your leg, "i'll take your friend to a doctor that I know, and I need you guys to only talk to the commissioner for me, anyone else then they'll probably scold you." he said before turning around and getting You into the back of the Bat-mobile, You looked out the window looking at Your friends, it was scary for some reason, but You trusted him so he has to be helping You in some sort of way, he already had helped You and the team so many times to count.
he sped over into Crime-Alley, then he stopped Infront of a clinic, 'leslie's clinic'… huh, "are they good?" You asked, he looked back at Your masked face, "yes, shes good, shes also very trustable with your secret identity." he reassured, he helped You get inside of the building, You just kept quiet and once taken inside he called out for Dr. Thompkins, she came and gasped when she saw you, it wasn't a big problem, you were fine, and you stayed off of the injured leg for that whole fight but either way you were just fine there were no problems.. which that was what you thought. when you were taken to the back Dr. Thompkins had you sit down on the bed in there, she then told Batman to leave the room which he did do.
"alright sweetheart, you can take off the mask… you're safe here and I won't tell anyone what I saw I promise," she hummed. you nodded and reluctantly pulled off the mask, she seemed a little shocked at seeing you but she kept her composure, at some point she softly pushed you down to lay on your back, she then gave you a sedative after asking if you had any allergies, and all that stuff, when she was sure you'd be fine, she gave you something so you can go to sleep, when you woke up you had a bandage around your leg which it was wrapped tightly around the wound. when you came to your senses she explained everything to you, that you were durable enough to not need anything big.
when your aunt and uncle came to pick you up aunt may ran over and held your cheeks, "are you okay?" aunt may asked, she was very alarmed it seemed, letting out a yawn they got you in the car, "are you sure we wont have to pay you?" Uncle Ben asked Dr. Thompkins. she smiled and shook her head "I'm very sure, now I need you to make sure shes somewhere safe and sound, probably away from home, I know that may be hard but a girl named Hazel may want her dead and her being away from home is the safest option for everyone. I hope you both can understand that.." Dr. Tho
mpkins explained, the two nodded and thanked her for her help and left. when you got back to the warehouse, you just stumpled on inside of the warehouse, then they helped you up the steps to your room in the warehouse. you hugged them before they left and they walked out of the room.
you got changed in your pajamas and then you flopped onto your bed and went to sleep.
