I don't own anything but my OCs, Charlotte and Astrid.
"Why am I doing this again?" I asked Astrid as I retrieve my two suitcases off the conveyor belt. "I'm not even a proper babysitter!".
"It will put the Stars on good terms with the American Government," she answered from halfway around the world. "If you hadn't jumped in with the alien invasion in Manhattan with Jaz-".
"Yeah, yeah, talk to you later bye," I hung up quickly, not wanting to get another scolding about Manhattan. I exited the airport, looking for my ride. I spotted it quickly-a GMC Topkick. A man in the cameo uniform of the U.S. Army stood next to the truck.
"You're the Stars rep?" he sounded surprised as I approached the truck.
"That's me," I gave a weak smile.
"I thought you'd be older," he said with a shrug. "I'm Major Will Lennox, it's nice to meet you Miss-".
"I'm Charlotte Gold," I introduced myself. "You were expecting Jazmine, weren't you?".
"Yeah, she seemed..." he trailed off as he got in the truck.
"More mature? She is, but not by much. I think she's trying to kill a mob boss in Chicago right now or else she would be here," I replied, pulling on the passenger seat handle of the door, but it wouldn't budge. "The hell?" I muttered and pulled a bit harder. The door finally opened and I got in.
"Sorry about the truck, it's a bit.. sensitive," Will said carefully, then grabbed a strip of cloth out of his pocket. "We're going to have to blindfold you, for security reasons".
"Yeah, whatevs," I shrugged as he handed me the cloth. I tied it around my eyes and yawned. "It okay if I take a nap? I've got major jet lag".
"Sure, we won't be there for a while," Will told me. I made myself comfortable and quickly fell asleep.
Minor Avengers reference, but nothing too big. This is after the Avengers movie, by the way. I don't own Avengers. Please review.
