F4 POEM PART 1

She walks unseen down the corridor

Reaching her destination, eyeing the unexpected gore

Holding her breath, she listens to Reed

His voice in her ear, a distraction she needs

Slowly she reaches out to retrieve what was stolen

More valuable than something made of diamonds or golden

If she fails at this it could be her demise

Someone bumps into her shoulder, she releases a startled cry

They know she is there now, she is given away

But she remains invisible much to their dismay

She hurries as quiet as possible out of the room

Running, racing away from doom

She thinks she is safe until the bullet hits her back

Her body appears again as she meets the floor with a smack

She was so close to being with them again

So close to Johnny, Reed, and Ben

She hears the rhythm of foot steps as the enemy draws nearer

She could see him if only her vision was clearer

Feeling dizzy, gazing down at the all the red

Becoming weaker, struggling to hold up her head

Finally her attacker has reached his target

Holding his gun, watching the pool of scarlet

A smile on his lips, the most disgusting she's ever seen

His stomach is plump, the rest of him lean

Her cheek rests on the cold floor now, this is the end

Suddenly her eyes catch the image of her rocky friend

Darkness surrounds her, she must have passed out

A sharp pain in her side, she awakens with a shout

The team is all around her watching with anxious eyes

All too aware the Invisible Woman almost died

She looks to where the bullet penetrated her skin

Only to find it is healed where the hole had been

What just happened? How could this be?

I know I felt that bullet go into me

One mission failed, but a mystery presented

Was her life saved by the shooter she had resented?
