You go outside for a walk... about 20 minutes in. You notice someone following you. Someone on a glider with an orange cloak.

"What the..." the brunette scientist let out, worried. She tried to find a hiding spot to get away from the cloaked figure. 5 in Agility to hide.

You duck into an allyway only to find yourself face to face with the figure on the glider hovering in front of you... The Hobgoblin.
"Ms. Octavius. I was wondering when we would have a chance to finally have a chat."

"...You're... Roderick Kingsley, are you? I've read your file. Do not underestimate me, I may not have my equipment, but I use the Serum as well", she warned, standing back, ready to defend herself if she had to. 10 in Close Combat (Hand-to-hand, Inhuman might, Outmasrt foes) in defense. (Total ph.defense: 17)

"Maybe I am, maybe I'm not." He said with a smirk. "I did not come here to fight. On the contrary. I came to propose an alliance of sorts." He said. "We both have the same enemy do we not? Biding his time in prison, waiting for the chance to wipe us both out, and reclaim his legacy."

Maria frowned. "You're talking about Osborn... the original Green Goblin. He may be your enemy, but you're wrong about me. I have never met Norman Osborn in person. I don't know if he ever heard about me at all", she pointed out. "I was hired by Harry, and have been working under Mrs. Allen-Osborn ever since Harry's death."

"Oh, I think he knows about you by now. If he doesn't, he will soon enough. Word to the wise, he doesn't like when others use his tech, or his serum." He said.

"Soon enough, I will improve both so much it won't be so much his as mine", Maria said with a smirk. "...But whatever. What's your point?"

"Okay fine. That good enough to convince you to join forces? How about this? I can help you find Mysterio and his new Sucktacular Six."

"That could be nice. But what do you want in return? For me to defeat the Goblin when he gets out of prison?" she asked.

"No no no... I want you to join forces with me... Together we can rule this city."

"...Wha-? Of course not, don't be ridiculous", she said very bluntly. "...You're maybe a threat to Spider-Man, and even then... and there are the Avengers, the X-Men are active in the city, and God knows how many other heroes who could easily wipe the floor with you. I mean, if I was evil, and I'm not, I just recently accidentally became superhumanly intelligent, so perhaps I could be an actual threat to the entire city... but even if it was the case, you would be more a liability to me than an asset. You're not on my level anymore, and you're not trustworthy."
She frowned. "Besides, you're only offering me to help against Mysterio's Pathetic Six. That's not much of an offer considering what I have to offer. I refuse." 10 in Close Combat all into defense. (Total ph.defense: 17)

"You'll regret this." He said taking off but not before throwing a pumpkin bomb at you that you narrowly avoid by jumping behind a dumpster as it goes off. *BOOOM!!!*

"Hmph... soon you will be irrelevant, just like Norman Osborn", the scientist said as she got out from behind it, dusting off her clothes. "I will improve the serum to untold levels... and make my equipment so much better than any of you can imagine. Then we'll see who'll regret what", she said, smirking. "You'll see what happens when a Hobgoblin ends up in the claws of a Chimera."
She decided to head back to the lab, feeling like it was time to get to work on improving the serum.
