Chapter 12: Going To D.C
(Two days later)
Y/N's P.O.V
I'm now back at school and I'm in shop class.
I've brought the alien tech here to get it out of the casing to get a better look at what's inside.
I hit it with a hammer a few times to break it down.
Y/N: Ah, damn.
Just then Ben comes over.
Ben: Hey, man. What's going on?
Y/N: Take a look at this.
His eyes widen.
Ben: Whoa. What is that?
Y/N: No idea. Some guy tried to vaporise me with it though.
Ben: So cool.
I look at him.
Ben: I mean, not cool. Really not cool. Totally uncool of him.
Y/N: Well, I think it's... a power source.
Ben: Yeah, but it's connected to all these microprocessors. That's an inductive charging plate. That's what I use to charge my toothbrush.
Y/N: I guess whoever's makin' these weapons must be combining alien tech with ours.
Ben: Dude, that is the coolest thing anyone has ever said. I just want to thank you for letting me be apart of your journey into this amazing...
I hit it with the hammer and the power sorce flies out.
We look over to our teacher and he doesn't even look up.
Teacher: Keep your fingers clear of the blades.
After that I grab the power source and put it on the table.
Y/N: We gotta figure out what this thing is and who makes it.
Ben: Alright. We'll go to the lab after class and run tests.
Y/N: Let's do it.
He and I do our handshake before leaving the classroom.
We walk down the hall and turn the corner.
Ben: First, I say we put the glowy thing in the mass spectrometer.
Y/N: I also think we need to come up with a better name for it than "glowy thing."
Ben: Good point.
Just then we see two guys turn appear infront of us.
And one of them is apart of the crew that I'm after.
Y/N: Ah, crap.
I jump behind the wall and Ben follows me.
Ben: What is it?
Y/N: That's one of the guys that tried to kill me.
Ben: Shit. Dude, we gotta get out of here.
Y/N: No, no. I gotta follow them. They might be able to lead me to the guy with wings.
I look around and see them go into the classroom.
I slowly follow them.
Ben: Y/N...
Y/N: Stay there, Ben.
I follow them into the classroom as they scan the room.
I quickly crawl under the workbench.
A moment later they go to leave, so I use my web shooter to attach a tracker to one of them.
Now, I can follow them right to their leader.
(Five hours later)
Ben and I are now back at my house in my bedroom.
I hand Ben my web shooter and a map appears to track the tracker.
Ben: This is so awesome.
Y/N: I know, right? They're in Brooklyn.
Just then dad opens the door and comes in.
Henry: Hey, boys. What's going on?
Y/N: We're tracking a member of that crew I told you about.
Dad sighs.
Henry: Y/N, are you sure that's a good idea. Their leader with the wings dropped you in a lake. You almost drowned.
Y/N: But, I didn't. He caught me off guard the first time. I wasn't expecting it. This time I'm ready for him.
He nods.
Henry: Okay. I know you can handle stuff like this. I just worry.
Y/N: Dad, you don't need to. I promise. Besides, don't you have a date tonight. Go get ready.
He smiles.
Henry: Yes, I do. Good luck, boys.
Y/N: Thanks, dad.
He then leaves the room.
After that Ben and I keep tracking the bad guys.
(Three hours later)
We've been tracking them for a few hours.
Just then I hear a beeping.
I repel down from the ceiling as Ben sits up wearing my mask.
Ben: They stopped.
I look at the map.
Y/N: Maryland?
Ben: What's there?
Y/N: Don't know. Evil lair.
Ben: Really?
Y/N: Bro, a gang with alien guns run by a guy with wings? Yeah, they have a lair.
Ben: Badass. But it's three hundred miles away, how are you gonna get there?
I look over to see a poster of the Washington Monument on my wall.
We're going on a school trip to Washington tomorrow.
Y/N: Hmm. Well, it's not that far from D.C.
He looks at the poster, then back to me.
Ben: Ah, good idea.
After that he and I go to bed to get some rest.
(The next day)
(Washington D.C)
My class and I are now in Washington.
Ben and I are now made in the hotel room.
I'm getting ready to go after the bad guys.
Ben: So, you all set?
Y/N: Yep. I got my suit, my web shooters and extra web cartridges.
Ben: Okay.
I put on my clothes over my suit before zipping up my hoodie.
Y/N: You still got Mr. Stark's number?
Ben: Yeah, got it.
Y/N: Okay. If you don't hear from me by midday tomorrow, it means I'm in trouble. Call Mr. Stark and get his help.
He sighs.
Ben: You got it.
I put my hood up and go to the door.
I look back to Ben.
Y/N: And hold onto the glowy thing. It's evidence.
Ben: Right. Good luck, bro.
Y/N: Thanks, man.
I leave the room and close the door.
???: Hey, Y/N.
I jump and turn to see Mia and Tory there.
Mia: Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you.
Tory: Hey, Y/N.
Y/N: Hi and it's okay. What are you doing out here?
Tory: Just heading back to my room.
Mia: What about you?
Y/N: Oh, I can't sleep so I'm gonna take walk. Get some fresh air.
Mia: Cool. Do you want me to come with you?
Tory quickly steps forward.
Tory: Or I could... I mean both of us could.
Y/N: Thanks, girls, but I'm okay. I just need to be alone right now.
Mia: Okay, we understand. Well, I'll see you tomorrow.
Y/N: Yeah, see ya.
She kisses me on the cheek before leaving.
I see Tory look down like she's disappointed.
Y/N: You okay, Tory?
She sighs.
Tory: Yeah, I'm okay. Gotta go. Bye.
I watch Tory walk off.
After that I jump up onto the roof to change into my suit.
