Crappy Day
A young woman came bursting into the room with urgent news. a few days ago a murderous villain by the name of Cojack was seen nearby the Andrometre Galaxy. The two cousins had been chasing him down for months and now finally had a lead. "Ben?" she called out through the headquarters where most of the tracking technology laid. "Ben?" the red head called out again. Looking for him, he saw a faint figure in the corner staring out the window. She approached the figure now coming into view. "Ben?" she called out a little more annoyed. He turned to her and waved her off. "yeah. Ok. Sure. No problem." Turning back to the window. The green-eyed woman just rolled her eyes and waited for him to finish, holding a disk in her hands and playing with it.
He took a couple of steps away from her his back to her. She breathed out a sigh of annoyance. Ever since the girl lost her humanity she's been a little playful, like a cat. She leaned against one of the walls and stared out into the afternoon sun. Her short red hair, draped slightly over her face as her hooped earrings dangled from her ears. She wore a blue and black outfit, which had a hood and facemask, attacked to it. A belt hung loosely over her hips with the shape of a cat as a belt. several stones were embedded on her right sleeve with two parts of a cape draped over her back.
She looked to her cousin who was still on his phone talking to his wife. She breathed out leaning more of the weight on the wall. She hasn't had a real relationship since Kevin, ever since then it's been one night stands with random men and booze, not that Ben knows that. He's been to involved in being a hero. She crossed her arms over her chest and waited.
"yeah. Ok. Bye" he said shutting off his phone and running/ walking over to the door. "Ben wait" she yelled to him. He instantly turned around as she grabbed him by the arm. "Ben I-" "Gwen whatever it is I'm sure you can handle it ok" he says putting his hands up in defence. "Yeah but-" she was cut off again. "Gwendolyn your nearly 40 now. Whatever it is you can handle it you don't need my advice, ok. Now I've gotta go. I'll cya later" the brunette waved her off. "Yeah. Ok" she whispered though she barely looked over the age of 21.
Gwen's POV
I opened the door to my apartment, which was on the top floors of a skyscraper. It was starting to pour down as lightning struck the Earth causing thunder and flashes of light showing the rest of the apartment. I shacked a little. Lightning always reminded me of old times. I sighed looking into my apartment. A massive window was on the opposite side of the room. to the left of the opening a small kitchen and to the right of the room was a large bedroom and bathroom. I turned on the lights and sat down on the couch bringing my arms up to rest on the arms of the couch. I breathed out and looked around feeling lonely. Ever since Kai kicked me out I've been traveling round doing plumber missions and so wrapped up in my work. I eventually got laid off for a while. I grabbed the remote to the left of me and turned on the TV.
Immediately a news headline showed up about Ben and Kai's marriage day 15yrs ago. Kai didn't even invite me to that. Ben had too. Annoyed I flipped off the television and walked to the cabinet and poured myself a glass of red wine. I just held it there swirling it round. Stupid Kai. I looked up to the window. Sipping down glass after glass of alcohol and hitting the town in a red short side skirt dress. I brought the rest of the wine bottle with me, not thinking about what I was doing.
Urgh. I lifted my hand to my sore head feeling sick. My eyes fluttered open but shut them tightly after nearly being submerged in light. I felt a kiss placed on my cheek. "Morning sweetheart" my eyes fluttered open as the voice spoke and arms came and wrapped themselves around me. I let out a groan. "I'll go make you some coffee" he played with my hair and got up walking into the next room. I heard him whistling. I groaned again, placing a pillow over my head to cover the light.
What happened I sat up. My hair a mess, well as much as a mess as it could get and looked around. My apartment. I never invite people back into my apartment. That way they know where I live and there's escape. "hey Gwenny" how does he know my name, I never give my name. "how many lumps do ya take?" he came walking back in a black haired muscly man with blue eyes came walking in.
'knock, knock' "hey Gwendolyn, Kai's and Ben anniversary is coming up and I was wondering if you-…. Oh hello there" Grandpa opened the door and saw the man standing in the hallway. "yo dude you just cant come braking into peoples apartments like that" he shook my grandfathers hand and walked into the kitchen making some scrambled eggs. Great the last thing I needed right now. "umm….. hey Grandpa" I said awkwardly. He rubbed the back of his head as I held the covers above my chest. "how's It going?" I asked him. "anyway, its Ben's 15th anniversary in a few days, I was wondering if-"
"No" I cut him off.
"what?"
"I don't think it's a good idea for me to be there" I rub the back of my neck. "besides I didn't think id be invited, especially since last time" I get up and walk over to my closet and then into the bathroom. "so there was a little fight between you two" he walked over to the bed and sat down. "well we must've been at different anniversary parties cause I remember losing it and smashing her head against the table" I yell getting changed into my normal attire. "Gwendolyn, you cant change the past" he tries persuading me. "no but I can defiantly change the future" I walkout of the bathroom and grab my shoes. "Gwen when's the last time you saw you're nephew?" he asked me.
"I dunno. His birthday" I tried to recall, counting on my fingers. 6 months ago I figured out. I walked to my closet and pulled out a duffle bag and started loading it with some plumbers issue weapons. "Where are you going Gwendolyn" he asked me, grabbing my wrist. "I've got some stuff to do". I tell him not wanting to expose that I was actually going after a serial killer. "Besides I'm not a kid any more Grandpa, I don't need to check in with you on every single thing I do, ok" I tell him looking into his brown eyes. "I know your not but your still a very young antodytes who hasn't even reached maturity yet" he persuades. I turn back to him. "well relax Grandpa im fine" I reassure him and place the rest of the equipment in my bag, before I can close it grandpa pulls out a disk that contained information and where to find CoJack. "whats this?" he asked, turning to me, a questioning look on his face. "ummm… nothing" I pull the disk out of his hands and place it into my pocket. "just junk" I try to persuade him but fail. "uhuh" I pull the duffle bag over my back, it weighed more than a couch. I walked out of the bedroom, down the hallway and placed it near the couch in the kitchen and TV area.
"Gwen" he places a had on my shoulder. "you've been acting very distant lately. Is everything ok?" he asked me sincerely, not letting me go. "im fine" I tell him and look over to the man I had only just met, he placed a plate of a fried breakfast on the bench with a glass of orange juice. "here ya go babe" he smiled at me, walking over to me, he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into him kissing me on my lips right in front of my grandfather. "I'll be right back" he told me and walked into the bedroom. "well, he seems friendly" grandpa pulled me into a hug and pulled me out of it but still remained holding me with both of his hands. "you will tell me if something up, wont you Gwen" he placed he puppy dog look face at me. "of course" I lie my head off to him, like I've always done. I smile to him before he walks out of the door. "and Gwen" he says to holding the door knob. "yeah" "try not to sleep with men you don't know" he smiles at me and my face goes completely red as he closes the door.
"oh Gwenny" the blue eyed man leaned against the door fame signaling for her to come to him. he smiled wickedly as she obeyed
