Previous Chapter Next ChapterInterrogation 2
Okay So it's been 5 day's since I saw the chilling video, I went back home to see what other things I could find on the laptop and everything had been magically deleted, the only thing that was left was a notepad file that said "Merry Christmas Flash Sentry" and the whole computer factory rested itself leaving me with an otherwise very powerful Laptop, I mean it could game but I don't need that right now.
I stayed at Sunset's place for a total of 3 days, I somehow got sick so she took care of me until I could get back on my feet, I still have a stuffy nose though but it was nice of her.
So now I have my sights set at going to Canterlot Tech meeting Doctor Hooves, yea it's way more stranger than it sounds, also apparently no one remember's Doctor Hooves accept me and Discord and possibly Mister.Circuit Breaker, his whole presence on the internet has been wiped out of existence, not even wayback machine could help me, the only things I have are those files I copied onto that Flash Drive but it turns out none of them had anything to do with the Green Goblin or Doctor Hooves but it had things about upcoming projects now cancelled, blueprints to a an unrelated Glider and Derpy's favorite restaurants?, So now the only thing I can do is go to Canterlot Tech
Flash changed into his Spider Outfit but decided just to take off the mask and zip up his jacket that he really should start washing this week, it started to smell like an abandoned building, "Oh God I need to wash this thing, it smells like an abandoned building"
Flash left at 11:45 and instead took an uber that conveniently worked at midnight
"Ey bud where to?"
"Oh just take me to Canterlot Tech "
"Okay!"
So the car ride had been pretty quiet until the Uber driver decided to break the silence, "So uh crazy stuff on the news eh?"
"Huh?!, Oh yeah, I hear about all of that stuff everyday"
"Yea, I heard about the Rainbooms being there, I heard secretly they have magic powers"
"Oh yeah?, Where from"
"Doctor Hooves of course"
Flash's eyes widened and he immediately looked away from his phone to the driver, "Doctor Hooves?"
"Yeah?, Why he's like the leading scientist in conspiracy theories, he even has his own club for this type of stuff"
Flash just shrugged it off and tried to play it cool, "Well ain't that some--"
"Were here, that'll be $20"
Flash just paid the man and got out of the car, "How did we even get here so fast?", Flash turned his head to the school and then turned back to see the Car was gone, it completely vanished no explanation whatsoever
There were people outside having a blast downtown no matter the time day or night so it wasn't like Flash was in a ghost town, Flash walked towards the school when he started to get an uneasy feeling about all of this
"Okay let me just back track here, I've been trying to figure out the Green Goblin's identity, I fight him twice, the only known suspects now each other from past work, I find a video detailing things that are happening way before they actually happened and now I'm going to a school way after closing hours because Doctor Hooves told me to!, Yup just another regular day for Spider-Man"
Flash went up to the door when he felt the ground shake beneath him, "What the f&%$ is going on know?", he looked around and no one was even phased by anything
The ground started to shake even more and more until a glass tube came out of the ground and it had the label elevator, Flash looked around one more time and no one was phased at all, "Well I guess I go in?", Flash walked inside the tube and was immediately sucked into the ground, "Hmm, this seems nor- Oh my GODDDD!"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH, oof", Flash landed on a soft cushion and saw a bunch of random stuff, "Whoa, what the the hell is all this"
Flash got a closer look and saw a bunch of old relics from the past, even mint condition Crystal Pepsi, "It's So nice to finally meet you Spider-Man"
Flash turned his head behind him seeing Doctor Hooves sitting in a chair playing with a yo-yo, "You!"
Flash tried webbing him up but it completely deflected off of Doctor Hooves, "Nice try Sentry, I know all of your tricks!"
Doctor Hooves took a deep sigh, "So kid, what exactly are you gonna do? after you find out Green Goblins identity"
Flash was scratched his head, "Umm, well I don't know", Flash didn't exactly have a game plan, he just knew Goblin needed to be stopped
Doctor Hooves face palmed and took a deep breath, "Oh good grief"
"Look kid, you wan't something to help you, here", Doctor Hooves took out a brief case, "Do not open it until you get home, and before you ask, let's just say Circuit Breaker's location is in there"
Flash turned to look at the case, "Well thanks, I think?", Flash looked back but he was back at his house, the only thing left was a note on the ground
"Hey Kid I kinda had to leave, the inter dimensional organization kinda needs me
So I'm leaving without a trace, don't tell Derpy, also don't you dare tell Doctor Discord
Also I hope you like the laptop, custom made"
Flash went back to his desk and realized the other laptop was gone and he was skeptical to open the case but decided what's the worst that could happen
Flash opened it and it contained four things, A Flash drive, a key with an address beside it, a liquid inside a small glass tube and a laptop but this laptop was jet black with a metallic finish and didn't look like it was made by any manufacturer, "Hmm, I guess this is what he meant by custom made" there was also a list left by Doctor Hooves showing exactly what he's supposed to do
Open flash drive on your own computer
Put that liquid stuff in the glass tube and put it on your jacket
Open Laptop password: cbi872
Go to address and take the key
Flash did what the paper was told just so he doesn't create a ripple in the timeline or something, Flash put the Flash drive in his computer and a document named "Super Serum report", "Hmmm this looks interesting", Flash opened it and read what was actually important
Week 7:The Serum experiment has finally came to an end, I've come up with a conclusion, the serum is way to toxic for any solider to use, after test Subject: Z has been dealing with hallucinations and craziness we've came up with the conclusion that the serum is way to unstable even to go back to formula, all serums have been destroyed, or so I think. A cure is slowly being worked on but I fear it may not be able to be finished
So I guess whatever this serum is it must have something to do with the Goblin, but what?
Alright next is pour whatever this stuff is on my jacket, I wonder what it is, fire resistant liquid?, something that will make me invisible? Oh it's just something to make my jacket smell clean and Oh wow what a dick he thought I smelled bad!
Alright the laptop, account CB312, password cbi872
Flash opened the computer and it contained information that actually proved useful, a room number that was related to the address that was given with the key, a video that was named video.mov , schematics to the Goblin Glider and a one time phone number
"I wonder who's number this is?", Flash got his Suit on and called the the number
Uh Hello?
Delivery is on it's way Mr. Sentry!
It was an unknown voice that was also British, not like Doctor Hooves but like James Bond British
Flash went outside and heard a car coming right towards him and stopped beside him, it was a European car, not like a Lamborghini or Ferrari but like a Bentley continental GT with a really tech based dashboard, it even talked, "Hello there sir, I am BAC"
"Bac?"
"It was a name out a hat Doctor Hooves was on a time limit"
Flash laughed that remark, "Why am I not Surprised", Flash got into the the Car but realized one thing, "wait, I can't drive, I was planning to learn after I got a vehicle"
"Not to worry sir, I am a Computer based car, I can self drive so do not worry"
"Oh well how nice of him, wait hold on why are you one time you seem like a useful tool in anyone's arsenal"
"Well Doctor Hooves has informed me that you must be able to overcome your adversity technologically free, so I am here for this one time, overtime you must overcome your flaws, and I can not be apart of that, I'm just trying to push you in the right direction"
"Aw man", Flash snapped his fingers walked into the car, "Anyways, I uh, want to go to, my god that's a Seven hour drive!, no wonder Doctor Hooves sent you here"
"Don't worry lad!, I'll have us at Manehattan in no time, sit back, relax and grab some refreshments!"
Flash was tired and was just curious to ask, "Is there a sleep mode"
"Well yes, but I don't know why you'd, okay never mind", Flash had fell asleep on the comfy leather seats which were even heated and did back mass- okay I'm jealous about how lucky Flash is right know, I'm sitting on a broken computer chair
*****
Meanwhile at the Interdenominational Organization Party, "So Doc. H you think your young blood Sentry can actually take down Micro Chips?"
"Don't worry Discord with antlers, I think he can find a way, I mean what's gonna happen, the worst is he dies but even so, I'll just turn back time and give him a techy suit or something"
Old Spice choked on his shampoo bottle, "Oh please, does he even know Micro Chips is Goblin"
"No but that's what makes it hilarious"
"Wanna Bet $302"
"Nah I'm good"
*****
Flash woke up while BAC was on the highway, "AHHH, Oh wait never mind, where are we BAC?"
"Oh you're a awake lad, well were on Equestria route 568, yea we've only been driving for 1 hour kid, it's only 1 Am"
Flash sighed and opened the glove box to see what refreshments had, the glove box was really insulated, "Wow there is lot's of wine in here, and champagne, and beer, does Time Turner have a drinking problem or something?
"No mate, it's just the only way to relieve all his stress",
Flash searched a little more and found Grape Soda, "Oh man, I hate grape soda", Flash rolled his eyes and opened the can and started drinking
"So BAC, did Doctor. Hooves leave you some info about Circuit Breaker?"
"Oh um well let's see-- Oh, Mr. Sentry, Doctor Hooves has now renamed himself Doctor Whooves with a W"
"I-, I can-, I don't eve- Whyyyy?"
"Anyways lad, Circuit Ouvert Breaker was born in 1978 in Manehattan but he moved to the capital of Equestria Canterlot and had a chil ,I presume you are familiar with?"
"Micro Chips"
"Precisely lad, In late 2003 Him, his good friend Doctor Discord and there star studded financial adviser Bronco Benson started a small computer company which took off, I'm aware you've heard of QXZ family of computers?"
"Yea in fact the model desktop I have is a 2017 gaming QXZ desktop"
"Well shortly after Bronco Benson's death in 2012 battling liver cancer, Discord and Circuit Breaker took sold their company and created a new military weaponry distribution company with a new financial adviser at their helm, Filthy Rich and a young ambitious strange scientist Time Turner or Doctor Whooves"
"Isn't he still young?, I mean what did he do to himself?"
"Don't worry about it Lad!, Anyways 3 years ago, Circuit Breaker, Discord, and Whooves were devolving a super solider serum that would enhance Strength, Speed and Agility, something that you are very familiar with in some form"
"Yup!"
"Well see it was very unstable and ended up being concluded early and the test subjects had either died of suicide, natural causes, complications with the heart or they've either ended up in an Asylum"
"So if Doctor Whooves is right about Goblin taking that Serum, he's gonna die or end up an Asylum or something along those lines"
"Precisely Lad!, anyways around that time the big 3 as I like to call them disbanded, Discord went on to become a successful Physics professor at Canterlot Tech, Circuit Breaker went on to own all shares of Circuit Breaker Inc's Stocks and well Doctor Whooves well, he became a well known time traveler in universe 61798 "
Flash arched an eyebrow hearing that last remark, "Well isn't that something"
"Also around this time, Circuit Breaker's mental health started to dwindle and so to did his relationship with his son, his wife had died in a fatal car crash putting Circuit Breaker in a state of depression, and well he started to neglect his child or sometimes fight with him expressing his disappointment with his child"
Flash took a deep sigh, "Yea that part I think I knew", one reason Flash and Micro Chips were friends was because they had a few things in common, their love for science, their sense of humor, and their lack of 1 parent which honestly isn't something anyone would be proud of, "I remember spending summers at Micro Chips house and we never saw his dad only his Butler or maid would be our parental figure"
"Anyways Lad, there is rumors of Mr. Breaker abusing substances, so I mean I'm not saying it confidently but he might've recreated the Serum and started drinking it and creating an alter ego"
Flash laid back on his seat and took another deep sigh, "Tomorrow's gonna be a long day", Flash fell back asleep hopefully gaining back some energy
*****
Flash groaned and woke up after the noises of horns and trash talking drivers got to him, "Bac where are we?"
"Oh Lad, you've awoken, well were still on the highway and it's 6 am and well, I don't want to burst your determined bubble but were gonna be here for another 2 hours"
Flash snapped his fingers, "Oh Man!, Really!"
"Well I can't do much about it lad!"
Flash sighed and laid back" Wait, what about breakfast?"
"Oh, just access the computer on the dashboard, there's probably something to aid your breakfast"
Flash accessed the computer and saw the millions of programs, "hmm, food maker?, wow you'd think Doctor Whooves had more creative names for some of these?"
"Well I mean I was created on a short notice so can you blame him lad?"
Flash opened up the program and a holographic display came out of the screen
Choose your dish
Flash was confused and scratched his head, "So do you like just say what dish you wan't?"
"Yes Lad!"
"Uhh, Chicken Parmesan?!"
Flash waited for five seconds and then a plate of Chicken Parmesan formed
Have A Nice Day, Mr. Sentry
Flash looked confused but shrugged it off and grabbed a conveniently placed fork, "So Bac, what's Manefair hotel gonna be like?"
"Oh well, it's for the very rich and there security is like off the charts"
"So how did Doctor Hooves get a key to--", Flash got cut off by his phone
"Hola!"
"Hey Lightning!, the whole school is getting together for a charity Basketball Game, are you free today!
"Sorry Sunset, uh J.J Sent me on a project in Manehattan, he said there are Spider-Man sightings and I was the only guy available on short notice"
"What?!, that's a 7 hour drive, how outrageous is your boss!"
"Ask Photo Finish, Look Sunset I'll talk to you in a few hours, I'm kind of multitasking right now"
"Oh sorry!, uh hey I might sound demanding but can you get pictures of the theater district, I've always heard it's beautiful according to Rarity"
"Uh I'll try, see ya"
Flash hung up off the phone, "So Lad is that you're Romantic Partner?"
"WHAT?!", Flash nearly choked on his breakfast
"Calm down lad, I'm just goofin' and gaffin"
Flash rolled his eyes and just continued eating
*****
Eventually Flash and BAC made it to the Manefair Hotel, "Jeez that took way too long it's 9 AM!"
"I'll wait here lad!, go rush into room #721 and question Circuit Breaker"
"Alright!", Flash changed into his Spider-Suit rushed into the hotel and went to the elevator and went to the seventh floor"
Alright Goblin I got you know
Flash took out the key and unlocked the door and kicked it open, "ALRIGHT CIRCUIT BREAKER, YOU HAVE SOME EXPLAINING TO DO!
"Ah, Mr. Spider-Man, I've been expecting you for a while", Mr Circuit Breaker had a quizzical look and was a bit too calm
Spider-Man walked towards Mr. Breaker and slammed his fists on the desk he was sitting behind, "I know you've been behind all those attacks, the Serum, the schematics to the Goblin glider, the video.mov of you guys creating the serum and the test subjects you're in the red kno--"
"I have no idea what you're talking about--"
Spider-Man took the bad cop way and punched his the face, "Not the answer I was looking for"
"Mr. Spider-Man, You honestly have gotten your nose in a situation you have no idea about, half the things you mentioned are outdated you insignificant fool"
"Everyone has a different story, Discord, Doctor Whooves hell maybe even Filthy Rich if I get a hold of him--"
"I'm telling you this once you web headed buffoon, I am not the Green Goblin!"
"Oh yeah?, How'd you know I was gonna talk about him before I even mention his name?"
"You're pathetically predictable!"
At that point a creepy voice came out of the shadows, "I can vouch for that"
Spider-Man's spider sense went off and he looked behind him, "Oh I have made error"
"Wow it took you that long to figure it out", Spider-Man looked towards Mr. Breaker and was ready to punch his jaw this time, "Hey Smart ass, let me think"
Green Goblin started laughing hysterically, "I swear you two are like a fighting couple"
Spider-Man lunged at Goblin but he was stopped quickly by a Goblin bomb damaging Spider-Mans Lenses and his suit
"AH GOD DAMMIT", Spider-Man was sent flying back
"Spider, Meet me at the the Bridleway theater district, I wan't to give the people a show"
Spider-Man looked at Goblin, "ARE YOU CRAZY!"
"I mean you wan't to really ask that"
Goblin flew off and Spider-Man was about to jump out the window, "Hey Spider"
Spider-Man turned towards Mr. Breaker, "I Have a proposition for you, bring Goblin to me and I won't report you to the police for breaking and entering"
Spider-Man shook his head and jumped out the window
He jumped into BAC, "BAC to Bridleway!",
"Precisely Lad", The Car started driving
