Iniciating the morning with Cocoa Puffs and the second Chapter for the Kick Ass FanFiction, Yay!

Please do enjoy.

Driving around New York City in Dad's Cadillac had its advantages; I smiled as I encountered a familiar comic book store quickly coming into view from my window shield.

I parked the machine in glee as I quickly stepped out of the car, approached the store and marched inside.

I ran my fingers over the endless amount of comics aligned on the wall, scanning each of the titles very carefully.

As I directed my eyes to the bottom right corner of the shop; a girl captivated my senses completely.

Her silky long brown hair snaked down her back as she lay on the floor reading a comic.

I cleared my throat as I nervously approached her.

Why was I nervous, you may ask?

Well, do I have to remind you that this is the first time I have ever approached someone on my own?

Red Mist might have more than 60, 000 fans on Myspace, but Christopher D' Amico has 0 friends in real life.

Why?

Well, I never got to experience having any friends because I was always trapped between the four walls of my house being home schooled.

Apart form that, whenever I had the desire to go to the movies or anywhere else, I would always be accompanied by Dad or one of his bodyguards, making it hard for people my age to approach me as friends.

Allright, so this is the first absolute first time I am making an approach, and it is completely nerve wrecking!

I cleared my throat once more before squeaking out a breathless greeting.

The girl looks up at me and raises a brow as if she expects me to say something completely idiotic.

" Uh… " I stammer nervously as I notice the name of the comic she's reading. "So…uh…you like Kick Ass, huh?"

The girl smiled. " I don't just like him. I LOVE him, I could f—k is brains out all night long."

"Oh! Uh…" I laugh nervously, that was seriously too much information. "Well, I like him too but I'm not that big a fanatic to uh…you know…do that with him…"

I rub the back of my neck as I laugh nervously at my own stupidity, how sad is that?

" Well, I don't mean to brag but…" As she stood up and she began to lean close, I fidgeted as I felt her chest rub against my tense body.

She then cupped my ear with her hands and began to softly whisper in my ear. "I used to date Kick Ass."

I gasped out loud backing away from her. "You did, really?"

"Yep, I don't anymore because Kick Ass doesn't go by that name anymore." She smiles briefly. "He's Dave Lizewski now."

"Well, why did he stop being a super hero?" I interrogated. "He did such an awesome job!"

"Well…you see, I…kind of persuaded him to leave that job, it was much too dangerous." She batted her eyes at me. "Don't be a stranger now, I'm Katie."

"Nice to meet you, Katie." I replied. "My name is Chris."

If I told this girl my last name, she would know my intentions and it would forever spoil all of the plans I have intended for Kick Ass.

"So Katie, have you always liked reading about super heroes?"

"Oh no, I completely loathed them actually. When Kick Ass became totally popular, I became a total fanatic!"

"So, being the fanatic that you are today…surely you must have heard about Red Mist, right?" I don't know why but it feels so weird saying my own name, it's as if I'm freaking advertising for myself!

"Of course, who doesn't? The cape was great and…" She moaned softly. "Those tight leather pants made him look so…sexy." I felt my face burn immediately. "I haven't heard from him in a while, is he still in New York, do you know?"

"Actually, I don't mean to brag but…" I leaned close to her ear and whispered softly. "Red Mist is a good friend of mine."

"Really?" Katie gushed as I nodded my head in reply. "Wow…"

"Well, Red Mist is also good friend of Kick Ass and he'd like to hook up again soon."

" But Kick…" Katie stopped. "I mean…Dave only comes to New York on weekends. Besides, I already mentioned he doesn't do that super hero stuff anymore."

"Oh no! Red Mist isn't interested in crime fighting any more…I can assure you that much." I grinned. "He is only interested with reuniting with a good friend again."

"Oh, you think so?" She asked.

"I know so…Red Mist mentioned that he will be waiting in the alley between Kohler's Drug Store and the dry cleaning place tonight at 11 …"

"You mean the scary alley with the dumpster?" She replied with a shaky voice. "No…that place is far too dangerous to be…"

"Not to worry, that's why Red Mist will be there." I replied coolly. "He'll protect Dave from any creep."

"Oh, right." Katie released a sigh of relief. "But sadly Dave won't be able to make it, tonight." She replied softly. "Do you think Red Mist can reschedule for Saturday night?"

"I don't think he can…" I stood pensive. "I've got it! Why don't you go instead, Katie? Why don't you go meet Red Mist tonight? All he wants is Dave's contact information, really."

" Is that all he wants?" She asked.

I nodded with a smile.

Katie thought about it for a moment. " I really don't want Dave to get exposed to this super hero stuff again, so why not? What harm will be done?" The brunette flashed me a smile.

"That's fantastic!" The vibration of my phone in my pocket brought me back to senses. "Well, see you soon!"

I quickly exited the Atomic Comic Shop and hopped into the Cadillac.

I frantically searched in the depths of the car seat for something I had been storing away for five years.

I grinned maliciously as I pulled out the super hero mask from under the seat.

"That's right, Katie…" I said softly, stroking the dark material of the mask with my fingers. "See you real soon."

It looks like things went fairly easy for Chris.

Afterall he did manage to convice Dave's girlfriend to meet him tonight at the dark alley.

So, you are probably wondering to yourself...

"What kind of technique does Red Mist have intended for Katie's capture?"

and

"Will Red Mist be successful in capturing his prey?"

Find out for yourself in Chapter 3 Red Mist Strikes.
