Disclaimer; I do not own the SHSS or any characters, and I know that Reptil's real name (in the comic book) is Humberto, but I'm making it cooler and saying it is Anthony. That's the dude's name that does his voice. If you want you can say that his middle name is Humberto, if you want. I personally say so, because I don't want to really change what the people did. And get complaints. So yeah… lol HUMBERTO????!!!!!! Like WTF?!!!

Solstice

"Squadies! Hero up!" Iron-Man's called out, as he flew out of the room, and presumably out of the Heli-carrier itself.

"Alright!" Wolverine howled, as he, too, jumped out the door of the Heli-carrier.

Falcon, Hulk and Reptil followed.

"Pterodactyl wings!" Reptil called out, as huge wings grew out of his body, taking the place of where his arms are- or were.

"Okay, Squadies" Iron-Man's voice filtered in on the voice-communicator wrist-watches that he had given every 'Squadie'

"It shows that Abomination, and MODOK are somewhere in the lower part of Down-Town. A Fractal is probably somewhere near there"

"Lower down-town?" Wolverines voice cut in threw the watch, as did the sarcasm that was dripping on every word "How's that possible?"

Iron-Man sighed "Fine. In down-town, then. Just go find them, okay?"

Reptil rolled his eyes. Wolverine had to comment on everything and anything. Wolverine couldn't go one day without criticize something.

"Oh, and radars show that there are Doom-Bots"

Reptil sighed. Doom-Bots were so annoying!

"AAARRGGG! Where do tiny voices come from?!!" Hulks panicked voice came in threw the wrist watch.

"Hulk" Iron-Man said, irritated "I've told you. It's the watch."

"Friends stuck in watch?!!? Hulk save friends!!"

"No! Hulk-!"

Soon high-pitched screeching, accompanied with "Hulk smash!" filtered in threw the wrist watch.

"GAH!" Reptil exclaimed, as he shook off the watch. The screeching could still be heard, even as it fell farther down to the ground.

"Iron-Man will be fuming now" Falcon said, as he swooped down to Reptil.

"Yeah" Reptil answered "Guess Hulk won't be getting anymore watches"

They both laughed.

But soon, both heroes descended upon 'lower down-town', of Superhero City

Down-town looked like it had taken a beating. Not, a hard one, mind you. All the buildings were still standing, only some of them looked… Broken. And like someone took a… bite… out of them… Weird.

"Holy Crow" Falcon muttered. Thousand upon thousand of Doom-Bots were scattered around.

Luckily it looked like Down-Town had been evacuated. Nobody was around-

"Falcon! Look over there!!" Reptil exclaimed, as he swooped down to where he was pointing.

Falcon looked. All he could see was Doom-bots… No wait, he just spotted something…

"Holy Crow!" Falcon said, as he too, swooped down to where all sorts of Doom-Bots cluttered.

It was a girl! She was trying to fend off all the Doom-Bots that were swarming her, but it was plain to see that she was failing.

Her face showed her hard work of battling the Doom-Bots. And there were even dried spots of blood on her face, and in her long dark-brown hair.

Suddenly, the girl collapsed. She hit the pavement, and Falcon could swear he could hear the loud thud that she made when she fell to the ground. The Doom-Bots looked like they smiled with glee, as they started to pick her up. Then they started shuffling off, and more Doom-Bots started to take their place.

"Velociraptor claws!" Reptil yelled, as his hands shaped into gigantic claws.

Falcon flew right behind Reptil. Knocking down the Doom-Bots, which were trying to sneak up on Reptil.

"Reptil! The girl!" Falcon yelled, as he dropped down to do hand-to-hand combat with a Doom-Bot.

"Velociraptor legs!" Reptil exclaimed, as he saw the Doom-Bots running away, their prize in hand.

"Iron-Man! We need back-up over here! Where are you?!" Falcon muttered into his wrist-watch, kicking on of the Doom-Bots down, and slicing another with his wing.

"Over and out, Falcon" Iron-Man said.

Soon, all of the Super-Hero Squad were fighting along side Falcon.

Reptil, having just reached the run-away Doom-Bots, easily sliced them open with his Raptor Claws.

They dropped the girl on the ground, as they all fell apart underneath her.

Reptil noticed that her eyes were still closed. And she didn't seem to look any younger, or older than he was.

And that she was also still bleeding.

"Oh, man" Reptil muttered "Iron-Man's going to have a fit!" He gently lifted the girl into his arms.

"He's going to think he failed! And he thinks hero's never fail. Even if the bad-guys win one, the good-guys come out on top. Oh, man, I really hope this girl isn't dead…"

Reptil sincerely hoped not. A dead girl on a hero's watch doesn't look very good for the hero… Death and safety are never in the same sentence.

Reptil slowly walked towards were the other Squadies were. He didn't want to run, because he might make her cuts worse.

But before he reached them, Reptil checked the girls pulse. He almost sighed with pure relief as he felt the steady drum of her heart-beat.

Back at the carnage, Falcon was calling out for Reptil.

"Yo! Reptil?!" Falcon called out.

"What is thouest calling out forth?" Thor asked, wiping his hammer on the back of his pants.

Falcon turned, and looked at Thor. His expression mixed of concern and anxiousness.

"Reptil. There was this girl and-"

Falcon broke off as he spotted Reptil, carrying the girl in his arms.

"There! That be-eth the Lizard One!"

"Holy Crow! Is she alive?" Falcon asked Reptil anxiously, as he came to a stop between Thor and Falcon

But, before Reptil could answer, Wolverine walked over and asked "What are you guys talking about?"

"Yeah, she's alive" Reptil answered, ignoring Wolverine.

Reptil looked down at the girl. He could hear Falcon sigh with relive, and Wolverine started badgering him for questions. Reptil stared at the girl. She was actually really pretty, if you ignore the huge bloody gashes in her face, and the big purple bruises.

She had really long, dark lashes, which stretched out over her face, and her long dark brown hair was tickling his arms.

"What are you guys standing around for?" Iron-Man asked, as he flew up towards them "There's still a-"

Iron-Man stopped talking, as he noticed the girl lying limp in Reptil's arms.

"Don't tell me" Iron-Man said

"Don't worry" Wolverine said, as Reptil glanced up at Iron-Man "She's still kickin'"

Iron-Man sighed. "Okay. Let's go, and bring her with you Reptil." Iron-Man nodded to the girl "Oh, and she's your responsibility."

With that Iron-Man flew off.

Wolverine smirked at Reptil, as the other Squadies started flying away with Iron-Man. "Heh. Nice, one! You get that pretty looking thing all to yourself"

Reptil gapped at Wolverine, but before he could retort, Wolverine saluted them, and walked off.

"Yeah, well… You're just jealous" Reptil muttered.

Falcon laughed, and patted Reptil on the back "Okay, bone-head, lets go"

Reptil, still muttering, walked, and then flew away with Falcon.

Reptil, back in the Heli-carrier, gently laid the girl in his bed. Even though, his Mom and Dad lived in Superhero City, he liked living with the Squad. Made him feel more with them, you know?

Reptil had already cleaned, and bandaged the girl's cuts, and also washed all the dried blood off her face and hair. He even washed some blood off some numerous parts of her body.

He was taking his responsibility really seriously.

Reptil checked her pulse, before he walked out of his door. He, once again wondered about the strange bracelet she wore on her wrist.

"Maybe Iron-Man would know" Reptil muttered to himself. "He knows all about weird things like that"

"Is pretty-lady okay?" Somebody said to Reptil, which caused him to jump in surprise.

Reptil turned around, and spotted Hulk standing behind him, an anxious look on his face.

Reptil sighed, and tried to stop his fast beating heart-rate

"Yeah, Hulk, pretty-lady will be just fine"

"Goodie! Pretty-lady should not look… un-pretty"

Reptil rolled his eyes. "Un-pretty?" he mouthed to himself.

Hulk, by that time, had gotten bored. His knowledge of the pretty-lady being just fine was the only reason he had come to Reptil's room in the first place. Now, knowing that he wanted to do something else, so he walked off.

This caused him to smack right into Ms. Marvel.

"Look where you're going next time!" Ms. Marvel barked at Hulk.

"Sorry" Hulk muttered, as he walked around Ms. Marvel.

"Where is she?" Ms. Marvel asked, as soon as she reached Reptil.

Reptil looked at Ms. Marvel

"Why do you want to see her?" He asked.

"Because" Ms. Marvel gritted out. "As being part of S.H.E.I., I get the right to see anything and everything on this Heli-carrier! And that includes guests!"

Reptil put his hands up, and backed off

"All yours, Ms. Marvel"

"Thank you"

Soon a gasp came from inside the bunker, and a shocked Ms. Marvel stumbled out.

"That's one of my nieces" Ms. Marvel whispered.

"That's ONE. OF. MY. NIECES!!"

Iron-Man, just walking towards the corridor, he himself wanting to check the new visitor, heard Ms. Marvel's statement

"What's with all the yelling?" he asked, as he neared Ms. Marvel and Reptil.

"That's Solstice! My niece!!"

"Oh-"

"Is she dead!!? Please don't tell me she's dead!!" Ms. Marvel exclaimed, grabbing Reptil by the shoulders and shaking him.

"She can't be dead!"

"No! She's not!" Reptil exclaimed, as he pried Ms. Marvel's fingers off his shoulder.

"But she may die of fright from your yelling"

Ms. Marvel scowled at Reptil

"Not funny" She whispered.

Iron-Man stifled a laugh. "Yes, it is!" He exclaimed, "Especially when you actually quieted down!"

Ms. Marvel glared at him.

Iron-Man promptly stopped laughing.

"Well, she better get good-treatment around here!" Ms. Marvel said, as she shook her finger at the both of them. "If I hear that ONE PERSON said ONE BAD THING to her, you can bet that there will be no more super heroes!"

With that, Ms. Marvel walked off.

"Good-bye, Ms. Cranky-Pants!" Iron-Man muttered to Reptil.

Reptil smiled.

"Well, she is her niece; wouldn't you be a little shaken up? Anyway, Iron-Man, what about the fractal? Didn't you get it, or something? I didn't see you with one!"

"Don't worry, Reptil. I know where it is. But I doubt I will be getting it"

With that, Iron-Man walked away, leaving a very confused Reptil behind.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Reptil asked himself.

"Hello?" A soft whisper sounded from inside Reptil's room. "Is anyone out there?"

Reptil walked back into his room, and came face-to-face with the girl- Solstice- staring at him, with her big dark-green eyes.

"Who are you?" Solstice whispered. Part of her dark hair fell into her face, covering one of her eyes.

"I'm Anthony Lopez, but most people call me Reptil"

Solstice cocked her head "Reptil? Now why would-"

"Tyrannosaurs head"

Solstice's eyes widened.

"Great Goddess Phosperone" She muttered.

Reptil looked at her "Phosperone?"

"She's the goddess of the Underworld"

"Goddess?"

"Sorry, I'm so use to being around Mythology knowing-people. Yes, Phosperone was the Greek goddess of the underworld. The Iron Maiden? Queen of the Underworld? Kore?"

Reptil gave her a blank look.

Solstice shrugged, humiliation blazing in her cheeks.

"Well I guess not all people know about Greek Gods and Goddesses"

Reptil nodded. His face changed back to his regular one, and he swore he saw Solstices shoulders shrink down.

He took that as she was a little scared of what he can do. It's not like it's a usual thing that people can transform into animals.

"Do you feel anything?" Reptil asked her "Anything…bad?"

Solstice shook her head, and her voice was just above a silent whisper when she answered "No, nothing at all"

Reptil sighed. "Okay, good. Let's go meet the guys"

Okay, so how is this? I kind of thought… you know. New person? And everything. I got this idea when I watched "A Brat Walks Among Us" You know, the one with the bratty girl that had the fractal tiara?? Yea, that's where I got this idea!! Anyway, please tell me ANYTHING you want… or whatever. LOL
