Last night the F.A.A was forced to ground all aircraft leaving thousands stranded, when electronic failures and mysterious power failures crippled the western United States. But the big story today, the much anticipated wedding of the fantastic couple Reed Richards and Sue Storm will take place this Saturday.
Every news channel was buzzing about the wedding. I often wondered how they found out when the wedding was.
I looked over to Ben who was surrounded by a group of excited kids.
"Okay kids, I'm gonna give you something special. It's called Thing dust." He said. Each kid held out their hands and he rubbed his fingers together over them. The kids were overjoyed.
"Unbelievable. Bizarre anomalies are occurring all over the world, defying all known laws of physics. And all the media wants to know is what china pattern Sue and I picked out." Reed said, looking at the newspaper in his hand.
I felt a tug on my jeans and I looked down. A little girl, no older than five looked up at me. I couldn't help but smile when I saw her big anxious eyes. I kneeled down so I was at her level.
"Hi." I said. She was very timid as she held out a Fantastic Five notebook. I took the book and pen from her hands and flipped the book open to an empty page. I looked into her eyes.
"Dear Madison," I said, using the name I saw in her eyes. A smile spread across her face, exposing her tiny white teeth. "Girls can save the world." I then signed my name on the page. As I handed it to her, I took noticed of the pendant that hung around her neck. It was a pendant of me. I smiled and complimented it before she ran off the tell her parents.
I stood up and looked towards Johnny. He had a girl in each arm, posing for a picture. Something stirred in my stomach and I narrowed my eyes.
"It's happening again, isn't it?" Sue asked. Reed looked over to her before lowering the newspaper.
"No." He said, his voice firm. "We're not postponing anything, not this time. This is gonna be the wedding you always dreamed of. And I'm not gonna let anything get in the way of that...not even the mysterious transformation at the subatomic level."
Sue laughed. "That's the most romantic thing you've ever said to me." She leaned forward to kiss him.
I once thought I was going to get married.
Johnny laughed from his seat. "Which is really pathetic when you think about it."
"Dr. Richards." An employee from the airport walked over to us. "I'm very sorry, but it seems we are overbooked. We do have some seat in coach though." Reed turned around to look at Ben, who was now lifting two children off the ground by the back of their shirts.
"That should be fine."
Third Person
Ben walked down the aisle of the plane, ticket in hand. He looked at each seat number before his eyes found the number on his ticket.
"Uh, that's my seat." He told the two people who sat in their seats. His seat was in between the two of them. They looked up at him with wide eyes. "Sorry." The man who sat on the end stood up from his seat and moved to the aisle. Ben scooted into his seat and plopped down into it.
Reed watched as the flight attendant closed all the storage compartments around him. His eyes caught an available spot for his suitcase. The thing was, that it was across the plane. He looked to see if anyone was watching before stretching his arm out and placing his suitcase in the available spot. The woman who was about to put her stuff there looked up and saw his luggage there. She turned around and saw him.
Reed shifted uncomfortably, taking off his jacket. Johnny walked over and leaned against one of the seats.
"What do you think about trying to get an endorsement from an airline?" He asked. "Get us a private jet." Ava walked over then before leaning on the back of Reed's chair.
"I think we have enough endorsement deals." Sue said. Johnny laughed.
"That is funny. No, but seriously. Reed, it could help you subsidize all your little inventions."
"No thanks." He said, shutting the compartment above him. A woman walked over to Johnny and tapped his shoulder.
"Excuse me." She said, letting him know he was in her seat. He turned to look at her and she smiled when she realized who he was.
"Consider it." He said before walking off. "I'll talk to you guys later."
"Johnny, where are you going?" Sue asked.
"I don't fly coach." He said, using his hand to gesture to the people around them.
"Alright." Ava said, moving into the aisle. "I'll see you guys there." She mock saluted before disappearing.
The plane took off soon after.
Ben looked out the plane window. A flaming man flew right up to the plane and waved at him. Ben scoffed and pulled down the shade.
"I hope it rains."
