This is my first Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes story.
Please leave a review after you read this and tell me if you want me to countinue.
Johnny was parking his car in his parking spot in the Baxter Building. He stepped out, closed the door, then he just stood there, smiling at his car.
He leanded over and gave the car a hug.
"I love you."
His pocket started to virbrate. Johnny pulled out his phone and saw his older sister Sue was trying to call him.
"Uh oh."
He headed for the elevator.
Reed was in the kitchen, a mug of coffee in one hand, a book in the other. A few science books were on the kitchen table.
Johnny entered, looking in ever direction of the room.
"Ah, good morning, Johnny," said Reed.
"Hey, Reed, if Sue asks, I was not out driving my car. . . She hates my car."
Reed nodded.
"Johnny!" called Sue.
Johnny paniced, moving back and forth. He quickly sat in a chair and pretended to be reading one of Reed's science books.
Reed grinned at the sight, amused.
"Reed," said Sue, entering the kitchen. "Have you seen-? Johnny, where have you been? I've been calling you and your phone, but you weren't answering."
"I was here," said Johnny. "Reading. Or at least trying to read. I was getting tired of Reed telling us stuff, but never understanding him, so I tried to smart up, but after an hour or so of trying to read this book, I realize I can." He closed the book, stood up, and crossed his arms. "Sorry, Reed, I can't smart up. You need to dumb down."
Sue looked at her little brother with a skeptical look. She turned her attention to Reed.
"Reed."
"He was out driving his car," said Reed.
"I knew it!"
"Aw, dammit! Reed!" cursed Johnny.
"Johnny, this is ridiculous!" exclaimed Sue. "It's like you're addicted to that car!"
"I'm not addicted to my car, Sue! I just like to drive it a lot 'casue it's awesome! It's the greatest car in the world!"
"It's just a car, Johnny," said Reed. "There are thousands of cars in the world."
"You wouldn't understand, nerd. You're to responsible and boring."
". . ."
"Come on, Johnny, let's go," said Sue.
"Where do you want me to drive you?" Johnny asked, holding up his keys.
"No. No driving." Sue took the keys and placed them on the table. "We're going to walk."
"Walk?" he groaned.
"Yes. First to my favorite clothing store, and then to the grocery store."
"Why do I have to come?"
"I want some company."
"Why can't Reed or Ben go with you?"
"Because Ben is going to watch the game and I need to fix the Fantasticar," answered Reed.
"Come on." Sue grabbed her brother's wrist and pulled jim along.
"I don't wanna go!" he whined.
"I don't care," his sister told him.
"But I don't wanna!"
The whining stoped once the Storm siblings entered the elevator and it closed.
Reed took a sip of his coffee. Ben entered the kitchen.
"Hey, stretch, the university call."
"Yes?"
"They want you to do a last minute lecture in an hour."
"What! I don't have my own car and I won't be able to fix the Fantasticar to make it on time!"
Ben noticed the keys to Johnny's car. He picked them up.
"Why don't you just take flame-brain's car?"
"Oh no. I can't just take his car without his permistion. Besides, Johnny doesn't want anyone driving his car."
"He'll never know," said Ben.
"No, Ben, it's not right," said Reed.
"Then I guess you need to find another way to get to the university."
Ben put the keys down and went to watch the game.
Reed thought about. He couldn't use other ways of transportaion like taxis, buses, or the subway. Because taxis don't ways stop when you call them, and when they do stop, someone usually cut in front of you and takes it. The buses were getting more expensive by the day. And the last time Reed when on a subway, he had a bad experience.
'I guess I could take Johnny's car just once.'
Reed took the keys and headed for the garage.
