Spider Quinn 17 Tempestuous Origin of Mysterio Part 4
Linda had felt Sandi’s search for Jane and thus knew what had happened when she opened the door to find Daria holding up her daughter.
“I know about her powers, Mrs. Griffin. I promised to keep them secret.”
Linda took Sandi into her arms. “You know everything, I suppose?”
“Not everything,” Daria said. “She did tell me about her powers and that the ESP only works within Lawndale, or very close to it.”
“And about her mentor?”
“I think it might be you, Mrs. Griffin. I’ll keep your secret as well. You didn’t look that surprised when you opened the door.”
Linda sighed. “Come in.”
“Will Sandi be OK?” Daria asked after Mrs. Griffin had placed her on the couch.
“She just needs to rest,” Mrs. Griffin said as she went over to the kitchen. “Yes, I am her mentor and I have had similar experiences in the past.”
“And I suppose you still don’t approve of her being the fourth vigilante?”
“No,” Mrs. Griffin said with shake of her head. “She’s being rebellious, challenging my authority, going through a phase. But at least she’s accepting my advice. But what about your mother? What does she think about what you’re doing?”
“She’s supportive,” Daria answered. “She’s worried, of course, about both of us taking on too much with the Historia and investigating what’s going on in Lawndale. But otherwise, she’s still working overtime and coping with her own grief.”
“Good to hear,” Mrs. Griffin said as she turned on the kettle. “Cocoa?”
“Sure,” Daria answered. ‘Better than the energy drink I got earlier.’
Daria stayed just long enough to have the cocoa, to be sure that Sandi would be fine and to tell Mrs. Griffin about what happened at the Historia. There was a lot she wanted to ask Mrs. Griffin about, especially what she thought about the recent events in Lawndale since SpiderGirl appeared, but she decided that it could wait until after Jane was found and the opening weekend of the play.
Linda watched Daria go. ‘I’m certain that she will keep the secret. She seemed very sincere about that.’ She turned back to where Sandi was sleeping on the couch. ‘I hope she has learned something from this, but I also hope that Jane and the critics will be found soon.’
Daria changed to Dafoanairi as soon as she was out of sight of the Griffin’s place. She then headed back home through the back alleys, keeping alert for anything that might happen.
At the same time, Quinn arrived home.
“Quinn, what happened?” her mother asked.
Quinn then explained what had happened at the theater.
