Bloodthirsty
She stared suspiciously at us but since she hadn't witnessed anything she couldn't actually confront us for something we hadn't done. She chose to stand at a distance and watch us.
"Psst! Xander!" I whisper quite loudly.
"Yeah!" Whispers Xander.
"That girl! She's watching us!" I whisper gesturing to a 19 year old girl with black hair, brown eyes and pale skin. She has a mole under her left eye. She wore pants and a hoodie. She kept watching us.
"Why does she keep looking at us like that?" Asks Xander.
"I don't know!" I exclaim.
"So you think she saw what happened?!" Asks Xander.
"I don't know! Now, Shhh!" I say.
"Just pretend to ignore her" I whisper.
"Why?" Asks Xander.
"Just do it!" I say before picking up my sandwich and casually taking a bite from it. I sip my chai.
"So how has your day been?" I ask. Xander replies,
"Well it was-" but then stops suddenly.
"What is it?" I ask.
"I'm sorry. I just can't concentrate with that girl staring at us" says Xander.
"She hasn't even ordered anything! Why is she here?" I whisper.
"I don't know" says Xander.
"Maybe we should just go" I suggest.
"Sounds like a great idea" says Xander.
"Let me just wrap up my sandwich" I say before wrapping it up in a napkin.
We leave the Super Hero Cafe and the girl follows us close behind on the street.
"Why the hell is she following us?!" Squeals Xander.
"Okay, here's the plan. After we go around that corner, we make a run for it, okay?" I ask.
"Okay!" Replies Xander and so after we walk around the corner we run as fast as we can. I get my mini journal out and read the word 'CHEETAH' aloud. I'm submerged in black ink and when it dissipates, I'm a cheetah.
"Xander! Get on my back!" I yell. He does as I say and I run as fast as my legs can carry me. I turn my head back to see if she's still following us. To my relief, she's not but when I turn my head forward again, she's right in front of us. She's floating in mid air surrounded by an aura of red like a cloud of blood. She slowly levitates to the ground and when she does, the aura morphs into her own body.
"Who are you?! Why do you keep following us?!" Yells Xander.
"Forgive me, my name is Mae. I'm forming a team. A team of Super Heroes and I think that you two would be perfect for the role!" Says the girl.
"Couldn't you have just told us that when we were in the cafe instead of staring at us and following us? THATS CREEPY!" I say.
"I had to be certain that you two were SuperHeroes" explains Mae.
"You know, not all Superheroes need to have powers right? There's Batman, Iron man, captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye-" I say before being interrupted by Mae,
"Do you want to be part of my team or not?"
