05 From Oreburgh to Eterna
A little over two months after the events at Mt. Coronet and the rematch with Steven, May arrived back in Oreburgh City. She had arrived in Sinnoh a week earlier and had caught several Pokémon she had started training. She wasn’t sure she was ready to face Roark, but she remembered that she wasn’t sure when she challenged Roxanne either.

But first, she wanted to explore the city. There had to be more than the mines.


She soon found the Mining Museum. ‘I have heard about this,’ she thought. ‘Or was it the one in Kanto?’ She shook her head. She didn’t want to think about Kanto!


“How may I help you?”

“I’m just looking around,” May answered.

“I can give a tour.”

“Sure.”


May took in the various exhibits, learning about the various fossil Pokemon that could be revived.

“They don’t have this in Hoenn,” she commented, even as she briefly remembered seeing something similar on display in Roxanne’s gym.

“They don’t?” the assistant asked.

“I don’t think so.”

Even so, the idea that prehistoric Pokemon could be revived from the fossils was weird. ‘Another mystery,’ she thought. She shook her head. It was time she started preparing for her upcoming battle with Roark.

Sam ran to the elevator and pressed the button, but Fields was right on his heels.

“Wait,” Fields said as she came up to him.

“I’m looking at things here.”

“You’re going to get into more trouble with Osborn.”

“I know,” Sam responded as the elevator door opened.


Fields followed Sam into the elevator. “You’ve poked the hornet’s nest. You know that, right?”

“I guess so.”

“Which floor?”

“What do you mean?” Sam asked as the doors closed.

“You want to get away from Osborn don’t you?”

“Didn’t he send you after me?”

“He did,” Fields confirmed. “But I want you to get away. So which floor?”

“I don’t trust you,” Sam said. “The roof.”

“It doesn’t go to the roof,” Fields said “And we’re already on the top floor. We’ll go down to the floor just below us and then use the stairs.”

“Different idea. Find me a phone.”

“Calling home?”


Sandi Griffin had slept in, as the past week had been rather hectic. She was making a late breakfast when the phone rang. She quickly picked it up.

“Hello, Sandi Griffin here.”

“It’s Sam. I need help! I crept into that new Oscorp building.”

“What!” Sandi said in concern. “You, like, shouldn’t have done that.”

Sam sighed. “I realise that now. So I may need your help, with or without Daria.”

“Trying to find her would take time. I’ll get there quickly. Locate you when I get there.”


Fields had listened in. “So, your sister and this Daria are two of the vigilantes.”

“No comment.”

“I’ll take that as a yes.”

“I’m not saying anything more,” Sam said. “We’ll go to the roof now and wait for Sandi.”

“Well, I won’t. I’ll be trying to keep Osborn busy.”


Sandi called the Morgendorffers, but there was no answer. ‘Of course not,’ she thought. Helen was probably working overtime, Daria was either being Dafoanairi or at the Historia and Quinn was probably either shopping or at the Historia as well. She looked at the map of Lawndale on her wall. The Historia was in a completely different direction to the new Oscorp building. “Not enough time,” she murmured as she tied her hair back and grabbed her mask.

23 Into Oscorp
SpiderGirl had patrolled that part of Lawndale many times before. But she noticed something new. A building that Oscorp had bought and refurbished was now open. She swung closer, but carefully, as she was sure that Norman Osborn would have had security cameras installed in case she wanted to infiltrate. There were many staff members milling about.

She then swung into a tree nearby and took out her burner phone, before sending a message to Ninja Talon.

Oscorp facility on second block of Maple is now open.

There wasn’t a response, but that was to be expected, given it was still early on a Saturday morning. She continued patrolling, but remained within a few blocks.


Sam Griffin wasn’t sure why he had decided to walk through the semi industrial neighborhoods on Lawndale’s southern outskirts. He did want to get out of the house, after the recent events in Lawndale from Groundhog Day onwards. Learning that his mother and sister had powers was also shocking, but he had learned that around the same time. He was thinking about that when he saw the new Oscorp facility up the street.
‘I can have a look. Then Sandi will have to listen to me more,’ he thought.


He approached the front door and saw that many people were coming in and out. “I can investigate Oscorp too!” he declared to himself. He soon slipped inside.


Officer Xanthe Peterson was also nearby, after having responded to a tip off about suspicious activity. She parked outside the Oscorp facility. ‘But what sort of suspicious activity?’ she wondered, as the report had been brief, just stating that there was suspicious activity. ‘That’s par for the course these days.’ Especially since Norman Osborn had left the hospital.
‘Lynn Anders was just the beginning of it,’ she added mentally, thinking of a local night time host and journalist who had been disgraced after interviewing a fake SpiderGirl. She got out of the car and looked at the building more closely.


Norman Osborn was inspecting the facility himself, as he wanted to ensure that it was up to his standards and that there was nothing out of order. As he turned into another corridor, a report come in. “Mr. Osborn to the foyer.”

He picked up an intercom phone and dialed the foyer. “Osborn here, what’s the problem?”

“A young boy has been found sneaking around.”

“A boy,” he considered. “I shall be there right away.”


Osborn saw him straight away. “Sam Griffin!” he said.

“You know him, sir?” one of the security officers asked.

“Yes. He’s the older son of Linda Griffin,” Osborn answered.

“Should we call her?”

“I’ll talk to him first.”
