So, the second chapter… Is officially Fluff central but you will probably hate me at the end I am giving you advanced warning.

Previously in The Story of my Life by Lia Skye…

L- Hey, you're making it sound like a TV show or something!

Well I can do what I want since I am writing this story!

L- Yes but it is my story!

-_- since when did you have any say in it?

L- since now!

And how exactly did you get so annoying? I don't remember writing you like that?

L- Magic!

Seriously! Now you're using my own sayings against me! Come back here!

Lia flames on and flies up into a corner of the room.

L- You can't catch me! Na na nana na!

I will catch you! Just as soon as I work out how to fly…

Superminion thinks for a minute

Wait a minute; I created this world so I can do whatever I want in it!

She closes her eyes and concentrates then opens them again, her clothes change into a short sleeveless dress split diagonally, with the top left half bright pink and the bottom right part is black, she is now also wearing tights that are pink as will with black ballet shoes, the Alice band that held her hair back is also pink, she had black fingerless gloves. She is also glowing pink. (This is in my profile pic if you want to see it) she looks down and admires her new clothes then flies off the ground and hovers in the air facing Lia.

L- How did you do that?

Magic! XD

L- That's so not fair!

She crosses her arms and sticks her bottom lip out, then she turns back and shoots fire at the older girl but the flames do not harm her.

Did I mention I'm impervious to flame? D'you want to see what else I can do?

She turns towards the smaller girl and shoots pink energy blasts at her causing her to wobble in the air, there is then a furious exchange of fire and pink energy but neither hurting the other we zoom out to see that Heather is standing beneath all this.

H- I think their busy so you can get on with the story, Superminion only owns us, although she did just make herself fly so anything is possible…

Heather XD

Hey that's my line!

Superminion XD

P.S. I apologise if any of this is confusing, I am attempting to follow the thought processes of a 9 year old and failing dismally.


I stopped walking and turned to face her; she bent to my level and looked at me concernedly. Slowly I brought up my free hand, clicked my fingers and showed her the flame. Her eyes widened as she looked from the flame hovering above my thumb to my face and back again.

I looked up at her, frightened at what would happen next, suddenly her face went hard.

"Turn it off, Liana!" she commanded, why did she call me Liana? No-one calls me by my full name except maybe the teachers when they don't know, not even when their angry at me? What did it mean? I quickly did what she said, clicking my fingers again so the flame disappeared with a small puff sound. As soon as she saw that the flame was gone the turned back forwards and pulled me as fast as she could towards the car.

"Mummy! You promised!" I protested while trying not to fall over as she dragged me behind her. We got to the car and I got into the passenger seat and strapped myself in, while Mummy got in the driver's seat and started up the car. We pulled out of the car park I noticed that she was driving faster than normal. I sat still in my seat as the car went from side to side as we were overtaking people, I looked across at Mummy, she was sitting bolt upright in the seat with her hands clenched on the driving wheel, I could see her knuckles turning white, her teeth were gritted. It looked, worried, anxious, like she was scared of something, but I was pretty sure it wasn't me. What was it that scared mummy so? I could hear her muttering under her breath.

"No, it couldn't be him… but it has to be… we only… no… this can't be happening… I never thought…" she muttered franticly, I could only hear half of it. After a few minutes she went silent. When we got home she silently got out of the car, I followed her. We went inside the house and she began pacing up and down in the living room, I sat on one of the chairs and watched her. As I watched I began to think about what had happened, I had been on fire, properly on fire, but it hadn't hurt me or anything! It was like I had superpowers or something, but didn't you have to be in a strange accident or from another planet to have them though? Maybe that was it; my dad was an alien or something? Then I remembered the people on the news, they were normal people weren't they? But they had powers, on TV they say they're bad but they don't look bad, mostly they just look like other people, there was one person who could shoot funny light things out of his eyes, except he couldn't turn it off so he had to wear sunglasses all the time, I don't think sunglasses would work for fire though, they would melt. I looked down at my hands, anyway the world looks strange through Sunglasses, I tried one or Mummy's once and it made the ground look like it was at a funny angle and everything was really dark*. I looked back up at Mummy, she was still pacing, it looked like if she kept pacing she would start digging a hole in the floor like in cartoons, I don't think that happens in real life though.

"Mummy what is wrong?" I asked confused, she stopped pacing and looked at me.

"I know who your father is" She announced suddenly. I looked up at her, more confused.

Then I heard a banging noise and looked round, Mummy must have heard it too as she was looking around as well.

"Move in!" an official sounding voice shouted. Then all of a sudden the room was filled with strange uniformed men, some even came in through the window like In a spy movie, they all looked at me warily, one of them approached me cautiously as if I might burst into flames at any second, although I didn't know if he knew I could, not that I had worked out how it happened in the first place to know how to turn it on, he got what looked like a strange box with two radio aerials sticking out the top from his pocket and began waving it around me as if he was scanning something, I tried to back away but they were all around me, I couldn't even see mummy. After a while nothing happened, he looked at the box and bashed it a few times as if he expected it to do something, still nothing happened and all the armoured men began to look rather awkward.

"We're sorry about this, we must have the wrong address sorry for the inconvenience" one of the Men who had a red badge on apologised and then suddenly all the men were gone as quickly as they appeared, some through the windows again.**

"Mummy what was that?" I asked, I had no idea what had just happened.

"They thought you were a mutant" Mummy replied calmly.

"Am I?" I asked, still very confused by the whole experience

"No" She replied calmly again, she looked down at me, her eyes were sad and looked almost haunted, I had never seen mummy like this, she was always happy and confident. I got up off the sofa and hugged her round the waist, which was all I could reach as I was quite small for my age. She turned and sitting down on the sofa she took me on her lap and hugged me back.

"What am I then?" I asked quietly, picking my head up from where it was leaned against her shoulder.

"Just you" She replied with a small smile, though her eyes still had their haunted look she put her arm up to my shoulder and squeezed it close to her.

"I don't understand" I puzzled looking into Mummy's big brown eyes, I always liked looking into her eyes, it made me feel safe and secure, as if I knew she would always be there to look after me. I picked up a strand of her hair and played with it in my hand, her hair was Brown and wavy like mine only hers was cut shorter so it only went to the bottom of her neck and curled in at the ends, mine is longer, it goes down to just below my shoulders and is always messy from me running around, sometimes Mummy plaits it after I wash it and lets it dry overnight, then it makes the waves go all pretty instead of crazy like normal. My eyes are blue though, really bright blue, Mummy says that they are my dad's eyes, even though she doesn't know who he is. Wait she said before the scary men came that she did! How could she know now and not before? Maybe he really was an alien!

"Mummy?" I asked, she nodded and looked at me, "Is Daddy an Alien?"

She looked at me strangely for a moment as if not quite sure whether I was serious or not.

"No Darling, he's not!" She laughed, but her eyes did not sparkle as they normally did. She turned and looked out the window for a few minutes then she turned back to me.

"He lives in New York with his sister and their family" she told me, tears welled up in my eyes, he didn't want me!

"It's ok darling what's wrong?" She asked concernedly.

"He doesn't want me!" I complained

"He doesn't know about you" She explained, I stopped crying and looked up at her.

"If he did, would he want me then?" I asked nervously biting my lip.

"Of course he'd want you, Sweetheart!" she objected, and hugged me towards her and I rested my cheek on her shoulder. Then I sat up suddenly as I thought of something.

"Mummy? Is he… Like me?" I asked nervously, not entirely sure how to say it.

"Of course he is Darling" she assured me.

"Why does he not know?" I asked curiously, she shifted uncomfortably and rested her chin on the top of my head.

"I only met him once, and I ran away instead of telling him" She explained sounding sad.

"Why did you run away?" I persisted

"I was scared, and I didn't want you to grow up in that world" She explained.

"What world?" I asked confusedly.

But she never got to reply, suddenly there was a loud crash and a metallic voice shouted through the house.

"Come and meet your uncle Doom***" the voice called coldly and sarcastically. Mummy's skin paled she stood me back up and leant down to look directly into my eyes.

"Lia, you have to go now! Leave! Run! I'll find you! But promise me you won't come back!" she whispered franticly, it was really confusing.

"W-what's happening?" I whimpered, confused and scared at the same time.

"Promise me!" she whispered sternly.

"I KNOW YOU'RE IN HERE SOMEWHERE!" the metallic voice came again; it made me shiver with fright.

"I-I p-promise…" I managed to stutter.

"Find your father, The Baxter building in New York, look for the big Five in the sky, and tell Him Doom has come back!" She explained franticly what I was to do. I looked up at her, the look in her eyes made me shiver, I knew she was terrified and it terrified me, I had never seen Mummy this scared before.

I nodded and she shoved me into the kitchen and shut the door behind me, at that moment there was another loud crash and some footsteps that went into the living room.

"Where is she!" the metal voice demanded, I couldn't leave Mummy to this! I peeked through the crack in the door, there was a large silhouette of a man that seemed to gleam as if he were made of metal, and he was wearing a dark coloured cloak. But that was not the worst, for he was holding Mummy in the air by her neck and she was making strange gurgling coughing noises, she was choking her! She was struggling franticly and trying to pull his hand off.

"Where is she?" He repeated, "I have searched too long to lose her now!"

"N-never… t-tell… you…" Mummy managed to choke out.

"Too bad. You'll have to pay now!" he said calmly as if he was stating an obvious fact.

Suddenly there was a buzzing sound and sparks and flashes spread all over Mummy's body lighting up the room, her body was shaking. Then Just as suddenly the sparks stopped and Mummy's head fell sideways and her body slumped. He had killed her! She was Dead! I drew my head back from the door in a state of shock then I turned and fled out the back door and ran as fast as I could, tears streaming down my face.


*I did actually have a pair of sunglasses which did this; it was annoying as I kept tripping over… XD

** You didn't expect the Boys to do nothing did you? As for why the scanner didn't pick her up I am not entirely sure whether they do work for the fantastic 4 so I thought it would be best if they didn't as I didn't really want here to be dragged off by the MRD, which if you haven't realised is who they are, sorry for the randomness of it but I couldn't resist the whole awkwardness of them bursting in only to realise that they've got it wrong! XD

***I am not entirely sure how to do Dr Doom's character so forgive me if it doesn't work. I figured that since he nearly married Sue he would try to claim to be her uncle for the power or something again sorry if I got it wrong. As for how he knows about Lia, I have absolutely no idea but I will try to work it out as the story continues.


You have official permission to hate me now, do still review though, I am now going to cry in a corner if you'll excuse me. (She runs off and crying is heard from offside)

L- Why are you crying? It's my Mum you just killed!

Well technically I created both of you, but feel free to join me in my crying (from offside, Lia joins her offside and the sounds of both crying are heard)

H- Anyone getting De ja vu? Anyway goodbye.

Heather XD

Superminion :'( (you get a sad face this time cause I am sad )
