Busted!

It was like a bucket of ice water was poured over me.

My heart stopped pumping blood.

I think I momentarily went into shock. So I just stared at him, his gorgeous face, bleach blond hair, rock star features.

This makes no sense, so…does it mean he hears my voice on a normal bases? Or does he know I’m hear? No, no it can’t be.

I staggered back, I couldn’t breathe.

Vertigo.

That’s it!

That was what I was feeling. Who knew I’d actually be able to use that word?

“You say something babe?” Fifi looked up at him.

“Hmm? No, nothing.” He gives her his full powered smile and I think she was momentarily blinded by the full effect.

I turn away from them, I need some time to think. Heck I need some time to put my brain back together cause my mind has been thoroughly blown.

“OOF!” I slam into someone. Was probably just a matter of time.

“Sorry” I squeak and instantly grab my mouth. Oh crap.

“No problem little-” it was Reed.

I didn’t even stick around. I was outta there before he could even turn around.

I went to the only person I could think of.

No not Susan. But that wasn’t a bad idea.

Ben Grimm.

He was in the corner talking to an extremely frail, pale looking man. The man had a mop of shaggy brown hair on his head as if someone slapped it on, he was talking to Ben fondly as if they’d known each other a long time and have been through so much together.

I couldn’t quiet peg who he was but the name was at the tip of my tongue. I walked around them, Ben was standing with his right shoulder leaning against the wall and a plate of a fancy food with cheese on it in his hand.

“They call this food?” his deep rocky voice rumbles. “I’ve picked my teeth with stuff more filling then this.”

The shaggy haired man looks at Ben narcissistically, “I’d take this over everything else. At least you know what you’re eating.”

Tick, tick, tick

My brain fought to place the guy, he didn’t look like any hero I knew. I think the skinniest hero was Falcon, goosebumps!

I reach Ben’s left shoulder, but before I said anything I sent a silent prayer up to God. Cause if Ben didn’t freak out he might decide to punch my lights out, something I knew I couldn’t survive, so I was setting things right with God before I die.

I gently lay my hand on his shoulder, I shut both my eyes expecting all hell to break lose. I feel his shoulders tense but he otherwise didn’t make a move. I open one eye gingerly and look at him. He was still looking at the shaggy haired man, his composure looked calm. Waw, I didn’t give Ben enough credit.

I moisten my lips and inch closer, my nerves were a complete wreck. “Ben…” I whisper in his ear. “It’s me”

He slightly nods his head, as if to show the guy that he was listening but also in a reply to show me he knew it was me.

I hold back my sigh of relief.

“You cannot believe how big the south western desert is, the general is relentless! He actually had a night patrol-” the man kept talking enigmatically.

“Ben, I had Susan turn me invisible so I could sneak in and be a part of the meeting” I say.

He tilts his head to the side, “Is that so?”

“Absolutely!” the shaggy haired exclaimed, as if he was surprised that someone had listened to him long enough to even reply.

“But Reed is onto me, everywhere I turn he just seem to be there!”

“You poor thing” Ben sympathizes.

“Well it’s not like that, but yes, everything has been hectic on me.” The guy flashes incredibly white teeth.

Poor thing, I actually wished someone was listening to him.

“And some other heroes can sense me or know I’m here, please help me Ben” I plead, I was desperate.

“Okay,” Ben said.

“Okay?” the guy looks at Ben funny.

“Er- I mean, it’ll be okay.” Ben saves, “Why don’t you meet Reed and tell him? I’m sure he’ll help you, Reed has always been a good friend to you.”

“Your right.” The guy said. “But he’s with Stark.”

“So? Y’all make the superhero geek club of America” they both laugh.

“I and Stark don’t normally see eye to eye” the guy commented.

“Have you seen him and AntMan go at it?” Ben lightly places his hand on the guys shoulder, urging him forward.

“Alright, but if he tries anything and I get mad it’ll all your fault” the guy warns.

He walks through the crowd to “The Superhero Geek Club of America”, love that name. Antman wasn’t there but once Tony spots him he clamps his hand over the guys shoulder and drags him to Reed. Steve was off talking to Black Widow. Natasha? I think it was. Waw, Reed knows a lot of stuff he shouldn’t.

“And you,” Ben turns around, “Where the heck  are you Vick?”

He was talking to a wall 3 feet from my right.

“Just turn a little to your left.”

He does so, facing me square off.

“Perfect” I say.

“Okay I’ll make this quick, before people start wondering why I’m talking to thin air.” He leans in as his eyes try to focus on me but couldn’t. “I’ll go meet Susan to make you visible again-”

“No!”

“Hold on, when you’re visible you can go mingle with the other kids your age. I’ll keep Reed off your back long enough for people to at least know you. Then you have to skedaddle before something bad happens.”

“Skedaddle?” I hold back my laugh.

“Ya whatever,” he straightens up. He looks around as if someone might come and ram into us. “Now you just stay put while I go meet Suzy.”

He clambers away. Hmm…clamber, another word.

He pushes his way over to were Susan stood in a stunning blue/red dress next to the snack table. Well I don’t think Ben meant to push all those people out of the way, but he couldn’t help it could he?

Susan look tired and I could see beads of sweat on her brows. I instantly felt bad, she must’ve been straining to keep me invisible all this time, and I wasn’t making it easier for her by running around. Plus the plan was for me to signal her when I was ready to be visible, something I also forgot and made me feel just horrible.

She turns from the skinny gorgeous brunette (Wasp) infront of her and faces Ben. She had a smile on, Ben talked to her, the smile turned fake, than after a while she lets out a huge sigh of relief.

Before I think she could make me visible someone grabs my waist.

“Gotcha!” I delighted Peter Parker exclaimed. Everyone turned to him, looking at him like a lunatic grabbing midair.

Then I turn visible.

“Oh my Gosh” I said.

Everyone looks at me for a nanosecond. Then chaos, worthy of the deepest pit of hell, broke out.

“SPY!”

“INTRUDER!!”

“ATTACK!”

Hehehehe 3:p

I love screwing with people.

Looks like our female superhero will have to put her powers and agility to the test.

Let’s see if she’ll be so bored now.

***As a side note, I'd like you guys-if you have time- to check out my other story;

The SuperHero Assassin.

I don't normally like asking this of people, I believe a book should succeed or fail on it's own without boost or help. But I'd really like to know if this book is worth continuing, since this story is the only one I have closely relating the other.***

P.s c’mon guys! Let’s get to 2k reads and 100 votes.

I believe in you!

The next chapter will be up really soon cause even I wanna know what happens next.

Peace!
