Second one today but I really want to get this done. Please review to let me know how you like it.
chapter 2: Texts and Notes
For the flight I was keeping my distance from all of them, I tried to keep my eyes closed to stop my gifts getting stronger. The flight was long and I had a lot of time to think. Maybe I was a danger - if people found out about me who knew what they would do. Eventually we got there and I had to open my eyes, my body was stealing the gifts again.
I walked next to Wanda up to the base. It was mostly glass and had a new shine to it. Part of me wanted to run while I could, get away from this place. The whole group entered the building and headed into a room for debrief. I sat down on the sofa outside and tried to figure out what was going on in there. There seemed to be a cut in the group.
"What's going on in there Wanda?" I hesitatated before using me new found telekinesis to talk to Wanda. She didn't reply for a few seconds as I could see she seemed to be shouting at the others. She then sat down again, after being pulled back by clint.
"Were just deciding what to do now, don't worry, your not going anywhere" she replied without the others knowing. I sat there for a few more minutes before they finished. They had three more rants from different people by this time but there seemed no more arguments. Wanda took me around the place to a small room. There was a computer there which programmed a room that I create. After I finnished we walked together to my room.
It was beautiful and sky blue with a wall that was full of books, some fiction, others non fiction. On one side,opersite my bed, There was a little desk with a tv above it that I could watch from my bed. On the desk there was a set of pads all in blue and different kinds of pens and pencils. I walked around the corner and got to my wardrobe. There was plenty of clothes all fitting my size. I was glad I didn't plan on getting out much, I was too much of a danger- a unknown.I felt alone but alone was safe and it protected me. I dug out my phone from my backpack and texted my sister. I wanted to make sure she knew I was okay. Ever since we were little it was just me, her and mum.
I laid down on my king sized bed and sighed. i really wanted to just be normal at this point. I missed my home and everything I knew. It had all changed today. I got a text from both my sister and Mary. I smiled slightly before reading them. Quickly the smile faded as it turned into terror. The messages where from Loki. He had them both as well as the rest of my family. I didn't know what to do. I hated the idea of going to the others for help. I just stared at my phone in horror. They was a knock at the door. I opened it to find clint.
"You okay kid?" He asked. I answered to quickly before realising my mistake. He just kept asking questions until I finally gave in. He walked out and called me to follow with my phone. I walked out timidly and clint soon showed the rest of the group. I sat down as I was joined by Wanda. I tried to get into the corner. I wanted to stop stealing the powers. I guess Wanda could tell this.
"I don't think it's stealing, more replicating. I saw hints of blue last time with your powers. I think slowly as they become stronger they will be more indervidual to you." She spoke softly. I shifted slightly closer. It made sense to me. There powers nevertheless got weaker. Min early just stronger.
i wanted to leave at this point but I needed to stay for my family. I tried to stay away from the group. Close my eyes or look away whenever I could. The only one who noticed this was clint, so he came over and said he has something to show me. I followed him to the top of the building into a small room. It was empty exept a bow and arrow stand and a few targets. The room was slightly dark until the lights came on. It was metal and had other targets I guessed for use later on. He picked up two bows an two sets of arrows and gave one of each to me. He showed me how to hold a bow and shoot. With the help of my gift I had picked it up quite easily. Soon the two of us were practising with moving targets back to back. I hit nearly every one and clint hit all of his. Soon we upgraded again to a mission like set. We moved and got to higher and lower ground. Moving around the whole space and dodging harmless arrows. Perhaps this wasn't so bad after all. We returned to the Sam room chosen as before. The whole group was busy thinking up statagies. Suddenly Two shapes appeared round the corner and sirens went off. and we all rushed to get our weapons. I grabbed a bow and set of arrows from clint and got ready to fire.
As soon as they entered the room I felt a little flame spark from my finger and water from the other. I told the rest of the group seconds before it was obvious in view.I instantly saw a way to destroy them both. Fire is put out by water and water is evaporated by fire. I quickly started putting a small amount of water on to an arrow and shot it at the man made of fire. Where as other arrows hit the fire and bounced of this arrow went in and hit his solder. I quickly turned the next one and filled it with fire and it also hit the water girl. Both of these were taken aback and the water girl dropped a piece of paper before leaving.
I ran to pick it up and open it. I stood frozen as I began to read. It read:
I still have them all. Try to break them out and you will fail.I will give you a week. A prisoner swap. No one but holly May enter the building but someone can take weapons. Break a rule and they all die. I will not be kind or hesitate again. You have been warned.
Loki
I felt Wanda and clint slide up next to me to read it. Everyone started to plan in the main room. Some of them thought it was to dangerous they must be another way. Other thought I could do it and it was the only chance to get everyone out alive. It was decided eventually that I would go in alone and once everyone was out I would do it. I needed training. Despite my protests. I guess I needed to be ready. I headed to my room for a rest before training early tomorrow.
