Hey okes!
The plot is inspired by Latent Thoughts "Ravished by a God". (If you are the type of gal who likes to read M rated Loki smut, I recommend you go and check it out). I just want to say I don't own any of the characters except Tidal Wave and her family. The plot is taken in an AU sometime after the events of Age of Ultron. You just need to know the basics: Characters, Setting so on. I apologise if there is plot holes in the future. This is going to be the longest story I have written up to date, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. And COMMENT! I love hearing what you what you think.
Love from thecapefangirl!
Prologue:
She is forced to go to school every single week day, even though the kids there think she is weird. She can hear them whispering about her whenever she walks into the classroom. They think that she is unnatural, with her blue eyes that match the colour of an Arctic ocean and the way she moves matches animated seaweed.
She has to go though. Her mother makes sure of that. She doesn't put a gun to her head and force her through the gate of the school with her sister, Becca. Oh No, she brainwashed her through guilt. If she wanted a day off because she was sick, her mother would say:
"Oh, ok then. But you may miss an important project, or a test. And I am not paying all this money for that now, am I?"
She could not physically disobey her mother because of the guilt bestowed on her. But that is not to say that she is not a great mother.
She lives in a small bungalow, with her ma, dad and Becca. Every morning there was always a smell of some baked goods or other. Her ma and dad are the best bakers in the town, and have a dream to open the best bakery in the entire state. Of course they can't afford it yet, so they work tedious hours in a company that packs airplane food.
She doesn't have a tragic backstory like many of the kids in the school, well except that her family is in debt and she doesn't have any friends. But the others have dead parents or they are divorced or something like that. So she always considered herself lucky that she has a family that loves her, even if no one else does.
Not that it matters anyway. She thinks as she drags her heels to the school. God, school! It may be private with fancy uniforms, but the kids are just as bad as a public one. She would be grateful if she gets into a bitchy argument with one of the rich kids, than to be publicly humiliated at role call…again…like the past few weeks.
She reaches the school gates, where her sister's protection left her. She sighs, back into the war zone we go.

"Hellooo" A voice cooed behind her ear. Fudge! Meg Barley, the head of the school's functions committee or whatever it is. Her parents are quite reputable in the school and whatever that family says is gospel. Meg could murder her right there in that bustling hall and still say that she committed suicide.
"Hey Meg." She stated, grabbing her bag and walking away from her. She could not deal with her today. She has had enough with her crap.
"Where are you going? Don't you want to talk too little ol' me?" She sneered as she was stopped by Meg's cronies, both linking arms to form a barrier.
She was shaking. She did not know what they would do to her this time. "Um…" Come on! You can stand up to them. "…n-n-ooo?" she stutters
"N-nooo?" Meg mocks." Do you hear that? She refuses. Oh how rude!" The others snigger around her. She felt her cheeks heat up. Don't let them get to you. "We should teach you some manners." She leaned up in her face. Meg pulls at her blazer towards the pool area. No one helps. Everyone moves out of the way, unless they wanted to be dragged along for the ride.
Once they neared the swimming pool, they shoved her through the door. She falls, face flat on the ground. Her nose starts to bleed.
"Oh dear! What have we done!" Meg says sarcastically. "Why don't we wash off that blood, with a little dip in the pool." She grinned manically, while she pulled her up and pushed her in the pool. She hit it with a splash and sunk to the bottom. But they didn't know that she had the advantage. While they were taking videos with their new Blackberrys, she summoned all the energy she could manage. She swims up to the top. Oh they have no idea what they have gotten themselves into. She flung her soaked bag out onto the side on the pool.
"Looky here." One of the girls, Tris, who flanks Meg says. "Have a refreshing swim?" They all chuckle.
"Absolutely," Her face twists into a sneer, "Why don't you join me?"
"Nahhhh, we are don't want to get into trouble for messing up our uniforms. And anyway, we have a video to upload."
"That wasn't a request." She gathers all the water surrounding her.
"What the Hell…" They all gasp in awe, and before they could run away, she crashes a huge wave on top of them. The water floods the corridor and surrounding rooms. Ha! She thought in triumph. They already smashed into the floor as she retracted the water back into the pool. They were retching, coughing the water out onto the floor. The other classrooms were flung open to find out what the commotion was about.
"Bitch!" Meg spluttered "You nearly fucking killed me! My dad will sue your ass!"
"YOU DESERVE IT!" She screams. Oh this feels good. "I think I speak for all the bully victims that we are sick of your crap!" Meg looks extremely scared. "I don't care if your dad is the king of England, I will not put up with your pranks anymore!"
"What are you, you freak?" The other girl backs away, slipping on the floor. The headmaster came rushing down the hall.
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" He booms. He stares straight at her. "You…what did you do?"
Someone at the back chimes "She managed to flood the hall! With the water from the pool."
He looks at her incredulously. "How…?
"Yes!" Someone else answers. Penny, she thinks. Penny is also a huge target. They never got around to talking, maybe because they were both too busy having their reputations ruined. She is pretty sweet as far as she could tell. "Like a huge…Tidal Wave."
There was a muttering in agreement. They all start to chant her new name…Tidal Wave. The headmaster could not control her new fans. She felt a massive wave (ha, wave!) of relief wash over her. She has had this power for ever since she has remembered. Ma has always told her never to use it unless it was life and death.
"There could be people who could use it against you, honey" Ma always warned. "This can be as much as a blessing as a curse. I know from experience."
"You have it as well?" She asked.
"No, no, your grandmother had a power. She could heal wounds, just by touching them. No one else has had it in the family except you my darling. All I am saying is that it could attract the wrong crowd. Just be warned."

"Guys, look what I found!" Tony calls out. The Avengers come over to the desk, bunched over him.
"What?" Steve asks.
"Well…" He types in the computer. "Remember that we need more help in our team?"
"We do?" Bruce asks confused.
"Yes!" He says. "Look…"
"I am certain that I was not informed." Bruce cuts in.
"I agree with Banner. What about you guys?" Steve pipes in. There was a general consensus amongst the team.
"Shut up! It doesn't matter." Tony turns back to the screen. "Anyway, I have trying to see if there is any unusual activity lately, and I manage to find some old records about this girl…" A photo of a short, round, pale girl pops up. She has a head of brown curls that accentuates her face and the most remarkable blue eyes. "About ten years ago there was reports of an incident at a school in Boston. They say that she managed to draw all the water in the indoor pool and flood the whole corridor, nearly drowning three girls in the process. Then she put it all in the pool again."
"So where can we find her?" Natasha asks.
"She is working as a marine biologist in California. She is apparently quite reputable across the country."
"You would if you could flood a whole school, then…" Bruce frowns while trying to think of the term "un flood it."
"So when do we start to find this…" Steve frowns at the screen. "Tidal Wave?"
"Right now." Start replies.
