the unexpected taboo
I do not own legion of superheroes . I only own the following : the Taboo siblings , the association
of the paranormal , and the planets that were robbed . And Im brand new at this so go easy on me .
Chapter one
the big surprise
Timberwolf's point of view
My eyes were glued
to the holo book
I was reading . It
was "The mirror " by Numa
Isabel . Invented the story and pen
name . Orlando Daniels could not
believe his luck . He had
to clean out his Mrs.
Tonio's basement to put
his house on the
market . And Mrs. Tonio's
wife was no help at
all . She kept on
complaining on how she did
not want him up
there . Nothing but dust
and boxes up there till
something tall and covered
by a white sheet
caught his eye .
" Will Timberwolf and Lightning
Lad please report to the
sitting bay ! " said brainy's
voice on the intercom .
I sighed and
closed the holo book . Well it was good while it lasted .
I sat cross-legged in a chair with my head resting on my fist
while Lightning Lad ... I wasn't sure if the guy was dead
or asleep . Then finally Brainy walked in carrying his computer .
" Evening , Lightning Lad wake
up . " Said Brainy not
even looking up from
his holo - computer .
" Don kill him
meat man ! " Yelled
Lightning Lad as soon
Brainy woke him up .
Brainy and I
stared at him strangely .
" Not a word . "
I rolled my eyes
and focused my attention on Brainy and his computer . On it was a picture of the metropolis museum of history
and a whole bunch of words but unfortunatly I could not read backwards
since the young robot
was standing right in
front of me .
" So why'd ya call us here
. " I asked trying to change the subgect
from ... whatever that was .
Brainy's attention shifted from lightning lad
to me , and he
turned around his computer so
I could see the
words . My eyes drifted
across the screen . Again I
sighed .
" Brainy , we all know about
the robberies that have been happening ,
so what ? " I asked with
a tone of sarcasm .
Brainy then pulled back his
computer with a sneer
that eased down a
few seconds later .
" But have you noticed
that the only thing that
was taken was the
Angel emerald , I have
recently noticed that the glass
case was melted with
acid , the exact same
way as robberies on other
planets , The planet epsilon
had the copper of Hades
stolen 12 days ago
from the mayors office ,
planet Zeta , the Onyx of
the moon , museum of archeology
, and the planet Xi's ruby
of fire from the king's
palace , then while I
was searching about these robberies
I came across this . "
He explained .
He typed on the keyboard
at an amazing speed .
Till the screen changed to
a picture of a man
with a burnt face ,
receiving a startled face from
me .
"Now this security guard was killed by an acid on his face , along with many
others , and these three women that were recently murdered last year , no way
this is a coincidence , but
for this we will
need specialized help ,
which means outside the
legion . " He said
annoyed of the fact that
we need some
help from the
science police .
Lightning Lad and
I groaned . Brainy placed his computer down on the coffee table and crossed his
arms .
" Fortunately , I happen to be close to the CEO of the association of the
paranormal , so she is sending two of her best fighters and detectives , who like
us have powers . "
I smiled , finally some one who won't look at us like
we're freaks .
" Their names are Seth and Vanna , their siblings ,
2 years apart , Seth is black , Vanna is white with
blonde hair . " Brainy was explaining before Lightning Lad interrupted
him .
" Wait why are you telling us this ? "
Brainy grinned a grin that
would be proof that he was up to something .
" Because I need
you guys to
pick them up from the space station . " He said .
Lightning Lad groaned again . Man what a baby .
" Why do you need us exactly ? "
I asked . Brainy turned around so
his back was turned
around and picked
up his computer .
" Because I need to
stay and research more
about this , and
you guys are the
only ones here ,
Ill send you both
more information by
communicator , now go . "
He ordered like a general .
I am bored . I
were sitting in a chair
doing nothing but staring
outside . While Lightning Lad
was talking to a tall
blonde chick while leaning
on the wall trying
to flirt with her ,
but failing as the girl
looked incredibly bored . It
was funny the first 5
minutes but now its
just weird .
I stared at
my reflection in the window . I guess I look normal enough with these clothes on . Brainy suggested that we
wear civilians clothes so we wouldn't attract attention from the science police . They'd probably think we're
gonna sneak a bomb on a
ship or something . I was
wearing a black sweatshirt that said
diamond on it , dark blue
jeans , and black sneakers . Lightning Lad
had a plain grey sweater , jeans , and
red express shoes . I got bored of
the outside so I decided to
see what was inside . There
was kids playing on electronic devices ,
teenagers texting , a stand full of
brochures , and Lightning Lad getting slapped
in the face by the girl .
But then out of the corner
of my eye I saw
a man and a small
boy I presumed was his
son . The man gave the
boy a small toy airplane . The
boy gasped in delight and hugged
his father . Sadness filled up
inside me . That was exactly
how my father treated me . He
would always buy me toys . He
actually made me think he was
a loving sane person . But
then it turned out he was
a phsycopath .
" Ship 27 arriving . "
Blared a woman's voice
on an intercom .
" T hat's the ship , come
on lets go . " Lightning lad
said .
And we walked away .
I feel like an idiot .
I was holding up a
sign that said Seth
and Vanna on it .
Lightning Lad was talking to
Brainy on his communicator .
We were standing in front
of the ship as
people leaked out .
" Okay , brainy said that
Seth would be wearing a
black sweater and Vanna
a grey dress , and
they both have black eyes .
We stood there waiting till
the plane was empty
but they were not there .
Well this was a waste
of time .
I was pulled
from my thoughts when I felt a tug on my sweater . I looked down and my eyes widened . Seth had brown
dread locks that reached to the bottom of his ear , a grey sweater , blue jeans , and black mid top sneakers with
lime green shoe laces .
His black eyes included the
cornea . Vanna wore a
grey dress , pink cardigan , and
grey Uggs . But the thing that
surprised me most was that
they were kids .
