My Little Spider
The Goblin and The Changelings
Previous ChapterInside a cave Queen Chrysalis, along with her two guards, were listening to their new potential ally, the who calls himself The Green Goblin. He was currently sitting on a large rock and has already explained that he is from another world and he has come searching for something. What it is exactly, is unknown.
"So, what is it again that you are searching in Equestria?" the changeling ruler asked.
"Just something that little Gobby think would be quite destruc- I mean- beneficial to cause." he said vaguely, causing the queen to look at him suspiciously.
"And what would it be?" she asked.
"Well, that would be my little secret to know and for you to figure it out." he retorted making the evil ruler glare and his grin.
"If I assist you in finding what you are searching, what is in it for me?" he asked, wanting to see if there is a bargain to be done.
"Ooh, trying to make a deal? I like it." he said before continuing "If you help me, I shall help you in where you have failed. Isn't there something that you have failed at solely because there has been a torn in the way?" he asked, suspecting that it must've happened to her.
"Yes." she said begrudgingly through her teeth "I was planning to take over Canterlot during the wedding day of a princess and a captain of the royal guard, by posing as the princess. Unfortunately, a foal named Twilight Sparkle got in the way of my plans. So to make sure wasn't, I turned her family and friends against her, which has worked." she told with an arrogant smile.
"Heh, heh, heh, heh. I like your style." he chided, feeling pleased and impressed.
However, he smug smirk turned into a frown as she continued "But that little filly is far more persistent than I realized. She and the princess escaped my imprisonment and tried to stop me. Unfortunately for them, they were too late, my subjects have already taken over the kingdom and victory was in my grasp." she told with a maniacal grin. But once more, the expression on her face formed a frown "But the princess I captured refused to quit and managed to defeat me with the help of her husband." she finished and an enraged look appeared on her face "I swear, I will make them all pay for what they have done. And once I have them in my clutches, I will drain the love out of everypony that they care about." she said in a sinister tone.
"Now that is cruel!" Goblin called her out on it "I think I'm in love." he said, smiling with his teeth, which was more disgusting and terrifying and addorable.
"Don't flatter yourself, creature." Chrysalis replied, with an unamused look.
"I must say, though, I completely understand you." he told her, receiving an intrigued look from her and the two guards as he got off the rock and began walking around "I also have an enemy that has interfered in my plans. Just like me, he too is 'exceptional'. I have offered him a partnership, so that the both of us could become something greater." he said with his traditional sadistic grin. But the look of excitement in his face soon turned into a glare "However, he foolishly refused my offer and decided to make an enemy out of me. Causing trouble for my business." he explained leaning against a wall of the cave.
He then turned to Chrysalis with a grin "But, I just might have an idea that could aid me in defeating him once and for all. Making him an example for all who dare oppose me." he said and then looked at the changeling queen with interested "Tell you what, you help me find what I am searching for that will lead to the death of my adversary, and I, The Green Goblin, shall assist you with your revenge on those who have thwarted your previous plans." he suggested, extending his hand.
Chrysalis looked at it for a moment, pondering at the idea. She then gives a devilish smile and shakes his hand with her hoof "I agree to this partnership." they ended the hand-hoof shake "I will be far more efficient if we allied ourselves to achieve a common goal." she then made her way to the exit of the cave "I must return to my kingdom" she turned to glance at him "and if you follow us, I can assure you that you will fell a new kind of pain." she warned him and departed with her guards, leaving Goblin by himself.
"That would be terrifying." he noted before getting an unconcerned smirk "If I could feel anything."
Queen Chrysalis and her guards where flying back to the hive and one of the guards spoke "We are not really going to trust this guy, right?" he asked.
"Of course not. He is as insane as a bag of cats." the queen replied.
"But , if we don't trust him, why allie ourselves with him?" the second guard asked.
"Because, whatever he is looking for is valuable enough for him to travel through worlds to get it. Once we have what he wants and he helps us take over Equestria, he will be no longer of any use to us." she explained, making the two guards laugh liking their queen's plan.
Back in Canterlot, Spider-Man and the ponies have settled down around a table and introduced each other. The Princesses have told the guards to stand down once they learned that Peter was not an enemy. He has told them that he was a superhero and, to cover up the fact that he acted against orders, told them that he was sent after The Green Goblin to bring him back and figure out why he travelled to another world. Despite them wanting to know more about him and his world, he told them that he can't since he's supposed to keep a low profile and he already caused a scene with his stunt earlier.
"And that pretty much sums it all up." he finished his tale "Any questions?" he asked.
"Yes." Princess Luna raided her hoof "How old are you?" she asked.
"Uh, 22." he answered in a deeper voice received a raised eyebrow from each of them, indicating that the were not buying it. He then hanged his head and sighed "15" he admitted in his normal voice.
"Seriously?" Shining armor asked and Cadence continued
"Aren't you're a little bit young be a superhero?" she asked the young hero.
"Well, I'm not exactly old enough to have my driver's license yet. So... Yes, yes I am." he responded, making them look at him with surprised looks.
An awkward silence fell in the room and Twilight broke it.
"Sooo, you are here to help?" She asked with nervous smile.
Spidey blinked, snapping out of it "Oh, yeah. I’m here to find Goblin, figure out why he would come here and bring him back to my home." Peter replied.
"Well, if that is your mission, we will help you in capturing him." Celestia told the young hero with a smile.
"Yeah! With our help, that Goblin guy will wish he never out of bed in the morning." Rainbow said in excitement as the others cheered in excitement.
"Sorry to ruin your enthusiasm, but I rather do this on my own." Peter told them, causing them shoot their eyes open at what he just said.
"What?! Why not?" Rainbow asked, flying right up to Peter's masked face.
"One:" he pushed Rainbow away before continuing "You don't know Goblin, which means that you don't know what he can do. Two: This is my enemy, not yours. I don't want any of you to get in danger just to take care of my problems. And Three: No offence, but I don't think that you guys might be qualified to handle this." he told them bluntly earning angry glares from everyone in the room, in Fluttershy's case a sadden look.
"How was that not offensive?" Applejack asked rhetorically.
"You think we can't handle your foe?" Luna demanded.
"Well-" Peter tried to speak up, but got cut by Princess Luna.
"I was tired at the time." she clarified "The next time I face him I will be at full strength."
Peter blinked at this "I was going to say that you guys don't exactly seem like the type to handle things quietly." he simply said.
"What are you talking about?" Twilight asked "We can handle things quietly."
"Really?" he asked skeptically crossing his arms.
"You doubts our abilities to handle threats discreetly?" Luna asked raising a brow, indicating that Peter should choose his words wisely.
"No, as a matter of fact those giant stained glass windows picturing you as heroes are the perfect example to show your ability to not make a scene." the web-head replied.
They just silently looked at him blankly and blinked at what he just said before Spike broke the silence "He's got us there."
"Alright, so there are stained glass of us." Applejack admitted.
"Beautiful ones, I might add and Twilight has one to herself." Rarity put in, causing the said pony to blush in embarrassment.
"Anyway, just because we have stained glass windows doesn't mean that we won't be able to handle this." she assured.
"Look, you don't understand. Goblin is not an ordinary bed guy, he's dangerous and I don't want any of you getting into this." he told them, fearing for their safety. It was then Fluttershy spoke up.
"Um, maybe we should let him deal with it. You know, just to be safe." the yellow pegasus suggested.
"No way!" Rainbow Dash declared "We can't pass up the chance of teaming up with an actual superhero. This is going to be so awesome! I can't wait to tell it to everyone I know and even those I don't." she said in excitement.
"I just said that no one must know about this. Complete stealth mode." Spidey told her "And I'm telling you, Goblin is dangerous and he will wipe you out when he gets the chance."
"No worries, we're professionals. We deal with this kind of stuff all the time." she bragged with a cocky look.
"Really?" Pinkie Pie asked "I thought that what we do all the time is go on adventures or deal with a problem that usually ends up with at least one of learn something about friendship." she finished with an innocent look.
Everyone looked at Spidey, who was giving them a skeptical look and Rainbow Dash chuckled sheepishly "Ok, well, not like "all the time", but we still did it before." she clarified.
Spider just shook his head and sighed before speaking "Look, I know you want to team-up and I have nothing against that. But I was told to not attract any attention to myself and it will work better if I go solo on this."
"Spider-Man" Celestia spoke "While I respect your decision to do this on your own, you must understand that this land is vast, you have no knowledge of it and your enemy could be anywhere." she told him. Peter thought on it and had to agree on what she was saying, he knows nothing about this world and Goblin could be anywhere "So maybe the idea of accepting our help could be useful for you in this situation." she concluded.
"Ok, we can team up." he said, causing the mane 6, especially Rainbow and Pinkie, to cheer "But this still needs to be handled quietly, I don't want to attract unnecessary attention to me. The castle incident was a too close call." he told them.
"Very well." Twilight agreed before getting an idea "And it might be better to go to Ponyville. That way you'll attract less attention and we will be able to help you find this Green Goblin." she explained.
"Sounds like a plan to me, Twi." Applejack approved with the others agreeing as well.
"Shining Armor and I will head back to the Crystal Empire in case this Goblin strikes there." Cadence said before turning to her said husband scowling at him "And then you and I are going to have a little talk about all this." she told him.
"I said I was sorry and I was only trying to look out for you." he defended himself as the two left the room.
"And I understand that, but just to make things clear if you ever do that a second time, you're in for it." she replied.
"Alright, alright." he said as they got out of hear shot and Pinkie Pie spoke up.
"We should go now too, we can get the next train to Ponyville if we hurry up." she said.
"I don't think it's a good idea, Pinkie. Spidey did say not to attract unneeded attention." Applejack reminded her pink friend.
"Indeed, and for someone of his appearance and wearing this outfit, he is bound to get spotted in the broad daylight." Rarity concurred.
"Did you just insulted my suit?" Peter asked feeling offended.
"Oh, no. I haven't, I was just pointing out that it will attract attention." she explained before asking "I just found it intriguing, who made it?"
"I did." the young hero answered.
"You did? What kind of fabric did you use?" she asked until Rainbow butted in.
"Enough about the suit. Let's just go." she said, losing her patience.
Deciding not to push it Peter agreed "Alright. You guys go ahead. I'll catch up once it's night time." he told them.
"I'll guide him towards the train station." Luna volunteered.
"And one of us will meet him there." Twilight added.
"Sounds good to me." Peter said.
The Mane 6 where making their way towards the exit of the castle, each with there own thoughts on Spidey.
"A real life superhero. I can't believe it!" Spike cheered.
"I know, now things are about to be even more awesome. And with me by his side, I'm sure he's bound to be 20% cooler." she said.
"And I can't wait to go on all those life threatening experiences with him around." Pinkie added.
"Quiet down you three. This is a serious matter." Twilight brought them back to reality "Spider-Man just said that he doesn't want any unnecessary attention and that this Goblin guy is trouble." she explained to them, receiving a discreet eye roll from Rainbow, who didn't really see the problem with one guy since they faced off against bigger dangers.
"I agree with Twi on that one. The sooner we get this done the better." Applejack agreed.
"I hope it gets done quickly too. I really don't want to have to see that goblin." Fluttershy added feeling scared.
Back at the throne room Peter was just looking at Canterlot through one of the windows, thinking about the situation happening and thinking about a certain someone.
"Ok, Gobin. What is so valuable in this world that you crossed dimensions for it?" he asked, feeling as it's a million dollar question.
Author's Note
Hey, guys, now in case you may not have noticed, I have change my title and rewritten my story. I know you might be annoyed, but I did this to fit in better for the characters and the continuing sequels. You might need to start back at the first chapter to get a better understanding of this slightly altered new one.
In the next chapter, Spidey goes into ninja mode.
