Hi, updates are often irregular and unpredictable since I have problems working on timescales, I write when I can, so don't expect them always to be this quick. Anyway, onwards…

SuperminionXD

Running towards the direction of the catastrophe I soon realised this wasn't going to be quite as simple as Jay thought it would be. Revealing our existence would not only be detrimental to us ever having normal lives, but also alert organisations like SHIELD who would want to dissect us or force us to work for them. How on earth did real Superheroes cope with this? Right, a mask. Dashing down the street a small shop caught my eye, a rack of brightly coloured scarfs stood outside the door. I quickly grabbed two of them and continued my way.

"Hey!" the store owner shouted after us.

"Sorry, we'll pay for these, I promise" I yelled back and continued running, the man shook his fist at us threateningly, but by that time we were long gone.

By the time we got to the scene the column of earth had sunk suddenly back into the earth but the figure remained and was now in combat with another flying figure who had long hair and a hammer. It didn't take much calculation to know this would wreak havoc in New York. I handed one of the scarves, the green one, to Jay, and tied the other, ironically a purple one, so it covered the bottom half of my face, Jay did the same. Three other figures landed on the ground nearby, one began talking into an earpiece; he wore a suit eerily similar to those the SHIELD agents who tried to nab me wore. The other two were more colourful, the woman wore a stripy yellow and black dress and the man a red suit and silver helmet.

"Ant man and Wasp I think" Jay told me in a whisper, "Don't know the other guy, but the one with the hammer is Thor"

"A Norse god? Seriously?" I looked at the far away figure dubiously.

"Apparently" Jay shrugged.

"Explains the hammer I guess" I conceded, "But I still don't think he's a god"

Lightening shot through the sky from the fight between the two flying figures. The three figures on the ground seemed to have some sort of argument that resulted in the woman, Wasp apparently, shrinking and flying off. Well that was unexpected, I rolled my eyes.

"Are we gunna help or what?" Jay asked,

"I don't know, it was your idea!" I retorted, there was a boom as one of the fighting figures hurtled towards the ground with frightening speed. The remaining figure raced towards where we were standing, well more accurately towards the two figures who stood nearby. But all of a sudden he stopped and seemed distracted, the work of the miniaturised woman I guessed. But then out of nowhere a red and yellow armoured man charged straight into the figure.

"Ironman!" Jay exclaimed in awe

"Who?" I asked

"Where have you been, under a rock?" it was his turn to stare at me dubiously, "You know, Tony Stark?"

"The billionaire tech guy?" I hazarded a guess

"Yeah! When did you become so clueless?" he accused

"When did you become an expert?" I retorted, he stuck his tongue out at me but it was only visible as a lump in his scarf. All of a sudden the red and gold figure, Ironman, shot straight upwards into the sky until he was no longer visible. That was it, we had to help whether SHIELD would catch us or not. I motioned for Jay to follow me and we approached.

"What are Graviton's upper limits?" Ant man asked the SHIELD guy. I guessed Graviton was the bad guy.

"We studied him for years, he doesn't have any" eye patch guy replied, "What're you going to do, Pym, talk him down?"

"No, it's too late for that" 'Pym' concluded as he hit a button on his belt causing him to grow considerably until he was as tall as the skyscrapers around us.

"I thought you said he was Ant Man?" I asked Jay.

"I did, I didn't know he did that though" Jay replied, staring in awe at the giant, who strode out across the water as if it were little more than a puddle and caught Graviton like a fly in his hands. But the gravity manipulator broke free. We had to act and we had to act now! Jay and I ran towards the sea, I grabbed his hand, I wasn't even sure this was going to work, but here goes.

"Who are you?" the SHIELD guy demanded.

"That doesn't matter right now" I called back as I continued running to the edge.

"What are you doing?" Jay panicked, seeing that we were heading straight for the edge and not slowing down.

"Trust me" I told him, he nodded and with that we both jumped off the edge and over the sea. I focused my mind and caught the both of us telekinetically.

"Whoa!" Jay exclaimed upon noticing his not falling.

"Yeah, it's awesome!" I agreed as I willed us both forwards towards the fight. "Stop this!"

I demanded as we hovered in front of him.

"Not until I get Fury!" the man thundered, I suddenly had to concentrate a whole lot harder to keep us in the air. We really hadn't thought this through! I panicked, neither of us really had offensive powers, there was nothing we could do to hurt this guy, and we had no protection from him. Unless…

'Stop… Stop fighting… you don't need to do this…' I chanted telepathically, trying to hypnotise him the way I had with the SHIELD agents last year, but something must've not worked, maybe he was too strong willed, or his anger too much, for I was forced out with a sharp pain. All of a sudden gravity switched sideways and both Jay and I were thrown away. The gravity stream continued and intensified until we were pinned to the window of a skyscraper, in full view of the occupants, great.

"Why did I let you talk me into this?" I asked Jay, who shrugged as much as he could with the weight crushing down on him.

"No! You wanted me to create a super soldier, but I've become so much more" Graviton boomed to the SHIELD guy on the ground, "I'm beyond human now and I'm going to crush you, and show the world their new master's power! Destroying the city would be a good demonstration!"

Ok this guy was beyond crazy!

"Goodbye Nick Fury!" He continued as the SHIELD guy, Nick Fury, was lifted from his place next to the fallen giant. He cried out in pain as he was crushed by the enhanced gravity, when all of a sudden he exploded leaving behind pieces of machinery. So Eyepatch was a robot. That was unexpected! I could do nothing but view as Graviton flew angrily into the city, the ground began shaking, windows smashed and lampposts fell over.

We were rising! He was lifting us into the air! Guess the Robot guy was right about no upper limits. The entire island lifted up into the air, water streaming from the sides. Then suddenly he must've stopped concentrating since I was able to move again. I took Jay's hand and flew both of us down to see what was going on. The island was falling again, but way too fast, it was going to smash or something. I looked just in time to see Thor dive underneath and slow down the island, rather like Superman would. A small wave washed as the island settled back into place, but it could've been much worse.

I breathed a sigh of relief as I saw Thor fly out from under the sea, but this was quickly stopped by another, more localised earthquake. Graviton rose out of the ground, his eyes glowing bright white. Seriously, did noting stop this guy? A silver bolt shot across the sky and hit the man, knocking him backwards, the Hammer, having hit its mark, returned to its master.

"I recommend you stay down, mortal" Thor shouted, Whoa, he's really into this 'being a god' thing!

"You think you can stop me?" Graviton challenged, "I've beaten you before, I can do it again!"

He floated back into the air and towards Thor menacingly when suddenly he was hit by a bright blue beam.

"Woo! Ironman!" Jay cheered

"You really should listen to the man" Ironman chided the villain before noticing us, "Who on earth are you guys?"

"Umm… we're just a couple floating people, feel free to ignore us…" I said awkwardly

"No we're not, we wanna help!" Jay corrected.

"Actually I recommend staying away from the guy who just almost destroyed half of New York!" I retorted at my brother.

"It wasn't half!" he protested, "And we still should help!"

"So are you helping or not?" Ironman asked, sounding confused.

"IN!" Jay shouted immediately, I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes under my glasses.

"Fine, I give up" I relinquished and we landed on the side of the crater, Graviton rose up but was almost stomped on by a giant red foot.

"You're sick Franklin, you need help" (Gi)Ant Man tried to convince the villain.

"Or possibly more zapping" Wasp continued

"No! The power I wield I… you are nothing to me!" he shouted and we are all pushed back and pinned to the walls of the skyscraper… again! "I'm stronger than all of you, I'm the strongest one there is!"

"Bad guys always say that!" Jay mocked

"You sure about that?" a deep voice challenged before the floating villain was jumped on and knocked through the air by a massive green figure. The Hulk! I lift Jay and I off as Thor and Ironman also take off after them.

"I did not realise there were ogres on Midgard" Thor commented.

"He's not an ogre, he's the Hulk!" Jay protested, how did he get to know so much anyway, or is it that I spent so much time on a cure I missed everything?

"Take him down!" Iron man orders as we see the gravity manipulator try to crush the Hulk in a massive crater. But gravity suddenly increases and we are slammed to the ground.

"Ow, again, why did I let you talk me into this?" I asked Jay as I picked myself off the floor.

"Look at you fools! I possess the power of the universe itself! I am power!" He shouted as he rises up a tornado of earth, crates and water spirals around him. Suddenly I am pulled to the ground; gravity seems to have increased thousand fold.

"I can't move, can you?" Ironman asked Thor

"Nay" the 'god' replied, "The others?"

But everyone is stuck on the ground, but I can see Jay grinning under his scarf.

"I can do better!" he boasted before disappearing.

"I don't think invisibility is helpful right now" Ironman commented

"He's not invisible, idiot, he teleported" I informed the armoured billionaire.

"Actually, Superman is power" I heard Jay's voice mock, "But since he's not here we'll have to improvise!"

"Insolent brat" Graviton insulted and a cry was heard, right that's it!

'IF YOU EVER TOUCH MY BROTHER AGAIN I WILL RIP YOUR HEAD BRAIN CELL FROM BRAIN CELL, YOU EVIL VILLAIN!' I roared telepathically, wishing him as much pain as possible, he cried out but I was once again forced from his head, now with a throbbing headache. Jay reappeared beside me, looking pale and breathless.

"Hey… I'm… ok…" he said between breaths before collapsing on the ground unconscious. I heard groans as the Hulk strained against the intense gravity, pushing upwards he is able to stand slowly, I saw Ant man disappear in a flash of light, obviously shrinking, and suddenly insects swarm up from the ground, there is a sudden jolt as Graviton once again increases the gravity holding us down, I'd soon be crushed if he did this anymore, I thought through my thumping headache. But still Hulk was able to resist the pull, as he climbed his way out of the crater he once lay in, again Graviton tried to stop him, but the Hulk was still too strong.

I was definitely glad he was on our side. All the spinning tornado of crates stopped and hurled themselves at Hulk, but he simply deflected them with his bare fists, until all of them piled on top of him. But something distracted the Gravity manipulating villain as all the remaining crates fell from the air and Hulk burst free from his crater. He launched himself on Graviton, knocking him to the ground. We're able to move again! I sighed in relief as I sat up and picked up my brothers unconscious body.

"Please don't leave me" I whisper in his scarf covered ear, tears sprung to my eyes, "I promised I'd protect you, Promised!"

I looked round to see superheroes all getting up and flying towards the sky where Hulk was suspended, thousands of crates ready to smash into him. I looked from the scene to Jay; he was alright, still breathing. It was what he would want me to do, I resolved, and I laid his body down and took to the air. I saw Graviton hit with a barrage of blue blast thingies courtesy of Ironman, which he was barely able to deflect, we were winning! I grinned underneath my scarf.

Hulk meanwhile was smashing the crates while falling through the air, I saw Wasp join him and blast a few. I spotted a pile of tires inside one of the crates that had burst open, perfect! I picked up the tires telekinetically and through them one by one at the villain, he deflected them, but barely and they became a distraction for Ironman to continue his Laser-fire. Hulk's falling path landed him straight on top of the Gravity manipulator, who was occupied by Ironman and me, and didn't see it coming at all, but once he hit the ground he was raised on a column of rock by the villain, but he was distracted by laser-fire from Wasp before Ironman swooped in and shot his massive laser from before. That was deflected by another rock column. A flash of light from under a nearby oil tanker signified Ant man's return to being a giant; he lifted up the ship and threw it at Graviton, it promptly exploded. Lightening filled the sky as Thor span his hammer round and round.

"FOR MIDGARD!" he roared as a massive beam of pure lightening shot from the tool and straight onto the Gravity manipulator. I landed on the crater edge as a torn and tattered Graviton looked up to see us standing as one. Except for Jay.

"Hey Sis, wha'd I miss?" He asked, appearing beside me, "Hey, I'm a poet and I didn't know it!"

"Don't you scare me like that!" I exclaimed, aiming to slap him on the back of the head, it passed straight through as usual.

"Who's strongest now?" Hulk asked the fallen villain smugly

"You had the power to do anything" Ant man said disappointedly, "and you used it to put millions of lives at risk"

"Pretty sad" Wasp commented as she zapped the villain again.

"Agreed" I smiled in agreement, l then turned to Graviton. "Sleep"

My Tele-hypnosis actually worked on him this time as he slumped to the ground.

"Neat trick" Ironman commented.

"I try" I smirked

"Come! Let us celebrate!" Thor suggested, putting his arms round all of us, but our success was interrupted.

"Freeze!" a shout came and we turned to see an army all pointed at us, I froze and pulled Jay closer to me, ready to flee and any second. "Step away from the Hulk, he's a fugitive from the cube!"

Well at least they weren't after Jay and me, not that it meant we were just going to hand them the Hulk with a silver bow. Ironman stepped between Hulk and the guns.

"You want the Hulk, you have to go through me" he challenged, "The Hulk saved us all, he's a hero as sure as any of us"

"Yeah, don't hurt Hulk, he's awesome!" Jay agreed.

"Stand down" I looked around for the source of the voice, "We got bigger problems than the Hulk! 74 supervillains are now loose all across the country, maybe the world by now"

"That's bad" Jay pointed out obviously

"Duh!" I retorted

"How did this happen, Fury?" Ironman accused

"I don't know, but we can find out together, come work for me, as SHIELD agents you could make a real difference" Fury offered

"Seriously?" I exclaimed, "Guys like you are the people I've been running from most of my life, why'd I want to work for you?"

"No! This is your fault, Fury, isn't it? SHIELD created Graviton!" Ant man accused, "Whatever you had Hall doing, it changed him, you kept it under wraps, and this happened!"

"Fury's right" Ironman announced, I looked at him suspiciously.

"What?" Wasp shrieked, "You of all people are gunna work for SHIELD?"

"No, he's right about us making a difference, together!" He amended, "One on one we can each take down a villain or two, but 74? None of us can do it alone, together, we have a chance, what we did here, it can change things! The world needs us, but not as SHIELD agents, as a team on our own, together we can avenge the wrongs caused by all these villains"

"We can be Avengers!" Wasp exclaimed.

"Huh, good name" Hulk commented

"So, like a team? Like the Justice League or something?" Jay asked, I suddenly felt very out of place. These guys were professional superheroes, they knew what they were doing, I hadn't even saved so much as a Hamster before today. Come to think of it, I'm allergic to Hamsters.

"A-all of us?" I questioned nervously.

"Only if you want" Ironman offered, I was lost for words, only able to nod dumbly, "So what do we call you guys anyway?"

Jay grinned under his scarf.

"You can call me…" he started before disappearing and appearing in front of Ironman

"…Flick 'cause I…" he ported in front of Thor and continued, repeating the process for each 'Avenger'

"…flick from one place…"

"…to another…"

"…cool, huh?"

"You are truly odd younglings" Thor commented on Jay's theatrics.

"So how about you?" Wasp asked, I thought hard, it had to be something to do with my powers, I gazed absentmindedly at the SHIELD agents who were packing their guns. It reminded me of when they surrounded me in the Café, when I was decrypting the AIM files. What was the name of my project again? I tried to remember. Technopsy! That was it! But Techno just sounded weird! Then I smiled as I thought of the perfect name.

"Call me Psy" I smiled

"Isn't that a Japanese sword or something?" Wasp asked, I shook my head

"That's S-A-I, I mean P-S-Y, like the Greek letter that looks like a trident, as in Psychic or Psychology" I explained.

"Is that what you did to him?" Wasp asked, gesturing towards the unconscious Graviton who was being dragged away.

"That was more like Tele-hypnosis, I can't actually control people or anything" I told her, she shrugged.

"Still kinda cool" she decided, I smiled, realising this was probably the closest I had ever come to making a friend since the explosion.

"We need a catchphrase or something" Jay, or now Flick, announced, "Like Avengers Go! Or Avengers Dispatch!"

"Assemble?" I suggested, mainly because of it being alliterative.

"Avengers Assemble!" Ironman proclaimed, testing it out, "I like it"

In case you didn't realise, I dropped the 'girl' part in Heather's hero name since it sounded immature and didn't fit this version as she is slightly darker. By the way, Heather's social skills aren't the best, I mean she has spent six years trying to cure herself and Jay, so basically until she properly knows someone; most of what she says is awkward or nervous, unless she is arguing with Jay or fighting villains.

Bye for now,
