Author's Note:

Hey, guys. I give credit to my co-writer Jess Maximoff for doing this story with me. She is a really awesome girl who I wait for everyday.

Anyways, this story takes place in the 2005 movieverse of the Fantastic Four, where Ioan Gruffudd is Reed Richards/ Mr. Fantastic, Jessica Alba is Susan Storm/ Invisible Woman, Chris Evans is Johnny Storm/ Human Torch and Michael Chiklis is Ben Grimm/ The Thing.

Enjoy :3

Victor Von Doom tore through the skies, his eyes locked onto the tufts of brown and blonde hair below him.

The two girls that he chased were small in stature and seemed to be no match for the villainous man's chase.

The smaller of the two, the blonde, had already started to crawl on the ground completely exhausted in no condition to keep running.

Victor was quickly upon them lightning crackling in his hands.

"This is going to be fun." He taunted them circling his prey.

The elder of the two with the brown hair glared at him fiercely, Doom momentarily wondering what he had to be scared about when two tentacles burst out of her ready to defend herself and her sister.

A fireball whizzed at Dr. Doom, making the girl freeze and look to the sky. When she looked up, the fantastic four had arrived. Her sister cooed beside her. They were saved!

"Reed, get to the little girl while we handle Doom." Susan ordered.

"Yeah, we've got the tin can covered." Johnny agreed.

Ben smirked, nodding in agreement.

"Right, i'll get the smaller one too!" Reed told his team before he stretched himself down to the two girls, keeping a watchful eye on Doctor Doom.

Reed walked over to her, slow and calm. He didn't want to scare the little girl. Once he was close enough to her, the stretchy hero crouched down beside her.

"Are you alright, sweetheart?" he asked gently.

Cindy looked up him and nodded, but it was clear she was very scared.

Poor girl. I never thought Victor would stoop so low and terrorize children. Reed thought to himself as he looked from the little blonde haired girl to the fight.

"Why don't you come with me? My friends and I will keep you safe." Reed said, in suggestion as he held his hand out for the little blonde haired girl to take.

Cindy looked at his hand, then looked up at his face.

She took his hand and stood up.

They both turned to watch as Doom and the rest of the Fantastic Four were still fighting.

Mindy leapt from where she was, into the fight with Doom and the other members of the Fantastic Four.

All eight of her tentacles came out and she became the kraken that she was.

Johnny, Ben and Susan were amazed with her.

She began to wrap her tentacles around Dr. Doom and began to squeeze him.

Cindy was in shock at the sight of her sister turning into that thing.

"Don't be scared. Everything will be alright." Reed said, holding her hand as they watched the fight progress on.

Mindy smirked as she let go of Dr. Doom and the defeated foe lay there on the ground.

"Nice job, everyone who pitched in." Sue said as she looked at Johnny and Ben.

"I was on fire!" Johnny said as he placed his arm around Ben.

"Yeah sure, hot stuff but it was all thanks to Kraken girl over there." Ben said as he looked towards the brunette haired twin.

Mindy's hands and legs returned to their normal human form.

"Well, what can I say? If you can't beat em', join em'." Mindy said, smiling and she looked towards the very young blonde haired twin.

Sue, Johnny and Ben raced over to where Reed was.

"Hey, Reed. Is she okay?" Ben said.

"She's alright. Just a bit spooked." Reed said as he looked from Ben to the little blonde haired girl and then back up to Ben again.

Cindy then began to cry.

"Cindy!" Mindy said, worried.

Sue, Johnny and Ben turned towards the little girl that was crying.

"Hey, Reed. Little girl in tears beside you." Ben said, looking at Cindy.

Reed's heart broke when he saw Cindy crying.

He picked her up and held her close.

"Shhhh. Don't cry. Everything is going to be okay." Reed said as he began to soothe her.

"I...I have something to confess to all of you. You see...Cindy and I aren't normal people. We were exposed to the cosmic storm a few weeks ago. After that, my parents had to do science experiments and guess who they used as their test subject." Mindy said, hesitant but brave.

"Who did they use, Mindy? Was it you?" Sue said as they looked at the two twin sisters.

"No. They used Cindy. She's been exposed to something more than the cosmic storm. I...She's not the same. She can't talk. She can't even live a normal life without them doing every science experiment possible." Mindy said, in confession.

Reed winced. Who experiments on children?

"Where have you two been staying?" Reed asked, with intrigue.

"Our parents. They weren't affected by the cosmic storm but we were." Mindy began to say.

Cindy gripped onto Reed.

"Where do they live? We'll take you two home." Reed said, concerned for both of the twin girls.

"I'm sorry but I have to fend for myself now. I can't expose Cindy to them anymore. I...I've gotta go." Mindy said as her legs turned into tentacles and she hurriedly scurried.

Now, it was just the Fantastic Four and Cindy.

"Ugh crap." Ben said as they were now all standing around, looking at Cindy.

(This is my first time doing a Fantastic Four story. I mean, I did watch both of the movies, including the one with Lawrence Fishbourne as the Silver Surfer. Jess Maximoff, I'm glad that you're doing this story with me and I hope that we can do more of it together. Please stay tuned.)
