Chapter 7 the weird lady
(Scarlet's P. O. V)
I declare today is the weird day. Firstly in the museum, I met Mr. Stare then the strange stone and now that loco lady. What the heck is going on!!!!
My godmother!! Really that's the best she got. Hell, I can be a better con artist than her. Who does she think she is??
Well, I am in pain I have got a bad headache due to all this nonsense. It was better if only I had accepted Ryan's offer to ride with him.
With cursing the lady and my day I reached home. I saw my brother sprawled on the couch and me being me I pushed him off the couch so that I can sit.
"What the hell, sis. Am I invisible or what"
"I wish you were, wait scratch that. Thank God you are not invisible otherwise the world will stop existing"
Before he could say anything I cut him off and said "don't say a word. I am already having a bad day. And you are worse so shut your trap before I do something and I won't regret it -"
"Ugh!! How about you both shut up and let me live in peace"
When we heard the new voice we both turned to see it was amber.
"You know sis people don't live in peace they rest in peace and they do that when they are kinda dead, thought you wanna know that."
As soon as Jeremy said that I started laughing.
"Yup, laugh like a moron, only a moron or what's that word...nincompoop. Yes, that's what you, are a foolish or stupid person. You know you take that line ignorance is bliss to a whole another level."
Amber said that while glaring at me and I was glaring back.
"You know for someone who thinks who knows everything, you are quite short-sighted. Hope you have enough ego to satisfy your so-called needs. Oh and one more thing you may know everything but as hell, you don't know me."
With that, I banged the door and left the house. Call that a dramatic exit.
All the while cursing her I kept walking and started my way to Sabrina's house but there was a teeny tiny problem. The super's were fighting and a phone tower that should be standing was blocking the road.
I know people go like OH MY GOD it's the supers. I am not exactly excited to meet them or see them and you will know why, when you see them almost everywhere, then people are always like always talking about them. Then if you go outside to take a breath, have some fresh air you will find them outside.
Me and seb, we call these supers, trash divers as whenever we see one of them always crash it's not always trash where they crash but it's more fun that way.
So while I was trying to find another way to go, a super just crashed in the trash. He just proved my point. At least, that made me forget what amber said for a little while.
"Hey, psssssssst girl with blackish brownish hair, help me out will you."
I was just leaving that warzone when I heard this voice; I looked around then looked at the super with raised eyebrows and said, "You talking to me?"
"No, I was talking to that girl with the same hair color as you who is kinda invisible"
"I didn't know there was an invisible super too. Well, I thought you needed a hand but you already have help, so see ya."
Saying that I started heading in the other direction. I was counting in my mind that when will he call me back as let's just face it there's no invisible super.
"you know it's all really funny if it was another time but really a little help please."
With a sigh, I went there and looked at him hoping he took the hint and told me how he needs my help.
You know what he did, he stared back, after few seconds, minutes, hours I don't know when I said, "Well, what do you need my help in"
"Hmm, What? Oh yeah, you see that rock when I say pass you just have to throw that at me as hard as you can. Easy peasy."
"So, what you are saying is that when you say pass I'll have to throw the rock at you. If it hits you that's not my fault, are we clear on that part? Oh, and what will you do with a rock?"
I asked him as I forgot what his powers were.
He looked at me as if trying to figure out if I was serious or not. Do all males have a staring problem? He is the second guy who keeps staring at me and I know there's nothing on my face. After a while, he said, "Umm...all you have to do is throw that rock at me as hard as you can so that I can then throw it at the villain whom we are fighting by enlarging its size."
"You mean like the big light doremon has," I said reasoning out.
"No, not that. It's completely different, that gadget you know makes things big but I will make the rock huge. Wait, it kinda is like that"
"You should have a better reason or should have a plan for standing there looking like a lost fucking child"
I looked to my right to see Skylar, another super standing there and glaring at him. If he is here and Skylar to that means there's only one super fighting right now, Blaze.
"Huh, oh yes I do have a plan. Let's go, and strange girl don't forget to do what I said."
I nodded as they started running toward the fight. I looked around and picked up a rock and started running to find a place where I will be safe and it will be easy to hit him with the rock if he dodges it his luck.
When I hid behind a tree I saw the fight as if all hell breaks loose. Blaze had a cut on his forearm, Skylar was breathing very hard obviously tired from the fight, Ryder using all his force to stop the villain.
Now when I look at the villain, I remember her name 'Griselda'.
Griselda is throwing whatever she can, using her telekinesis powers at a very high speed, as soon as Ryder is close enough he drops to the floor using his arms to support his weight as he swings his legs out knocking her to the ground.
In all this chaos, he screams "PASS" taking that as a cue I throw the rock as hard as I could as soon the rock reached him he looked at the rock and the rock started getting bigger and bigger. He started to move the rock with the help of his hands that too without touching it and smashed it where Griselda was.
Because of this smashing, there was this fog of dust, after it settled down, I saw the destruction. Buildings were collapsed but the super's weren't any better.
I thought I had two choices whether to go check on them or leave them be as they do this all the time and head to Seb's house where I was planning to go.
After some internal debate, I went to where Ryder collapsed.
"Not bad, I guess. You Ok?"
I have no clue how to talk to a super as if it were someone else they would have said 'omg, you were so great there and blah blah blah'. I am just not that person. He has superpowers and he uses them to save us and I am grateful for that but it's his choice.
"You bet, I am totally fin-e," he said that wincing. Now, I am feeling bad for him but before I could say anything else Griselda has stood up and used her powers to throw a car at us.
Now, blaze as his name shot a fireball at her making her unconscious but Ryder had no power in him and Skylar was running towards us but it looked like she wouldn't make it in time.
I closed my eyes waiting for the impact, but nothing came. When I opened my eyes I saw that I and Ryder were protected in a circle-ish sheild, the car or the pieces left of the car were lying and I saw my reflection on a broken glass lying there and my eyes weren't brown anymore they were golden the same color like the magical circle protecting us.
I freaked out and when I looked back at my reflection my eyes were back to the color they are and the circle was gone as if it was never there. That's the last thing I remember before passing out.
******************************************
SCARLET: Did you all see that? My eyes...the car....that shielding circle.....
SKYLAR: Calm down girl, I might know someone who will help you.
SCARLET: Calm down? How can I after everything that has happened?
