Chapter Seven
Supergirl had called Quasar and found out about the poker game the Avengers were having. "I'm glad you're coming Supergirl. But we don't wear uniforms when we play. Ben Grimm from the Fanfastic Four and some of the X-Men will also be there."
Supergirl had brought some homemade Italian rolls, conalies, hogies, pastries and other bakery treats. On her way to New York one of the reserve members of the Justice League flew right next to her.
"Jade! What are you doing here?" Supergirl asked.
"I was in the area and I was wondering where you were going," Jade answered. "And the food you carrying smells delicious."
"Thanks. I'm going to a poker game. The Avengers and some others will be there. Well, it's been nice talking to ya but I gotta get going."
"Hey, can I come along?" the green skinned woman asked as she kept up with her. "I'm a pretty good poker player. And I can use my powers to keep your food warm."
"Um. I guess it will be okay. They don't want any of us wearing uniforms so don't embarrass me. And I got dibbs on Quasar, all right?"
"Sure, Supergirl, no problem," Jade said as she used her powers to create some nice stylish green clothes that accentuated her figure and made her look hot and sexy but not too sleazy.
"I'll just wait for Supergirl to make her move and fail. Once that happens I'll make my moves on Quasar myself. There's no way a classy guy like Quasar will want a New Yorker like Gina when he could have me."
Powergirl watched them as they flew off. "Where does she think she's going? She's leaving Metropolis unprotected. I'll have to remind her of her responsiblities."
The two women arrived at the Avengers Mansion a few minutes later. !!KNOCK!!KNOCK!! Jarvis, the Avengers' butler looked at his watch which doubled as a small viewscreen allowing him to see who was at the door.
"Oh, Supergirl and I don't believe I've had the pleasure. Are you a friend of She Hulk's? You're as green as she is," Jarvis said respectfully.
"No. My name's Jade. My greenness isn't of the same nature. So where's the poker game being held at?"
"Yes, this way." As Jarvis led them towards the poker game Supergirl changed into New York style street clothes at superspeed.
She didn't wear the clothes she wore as Agnes Stapleton but what she wore as Gina before she knew about her super powers, just a checkered shirt and jeans.
"So you made it!" Quasar said happily. And who's your friend? You were in Infinity Inc. weren't you? Hi, my name is Quasar but you can call me Wendell."
"Hi, Wendell. Just call me, Jade," the green woman said in a sexy manner.
"What does Jade think she's doing? I told her I had dibbs. Sheesh! She couldn't just chill out. Oh, who am I kidding. Jade has posed in a bikini showing off her green ass so Wendell can't keep his eyes off of her."
"Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Benjamin Grimm also known as the Thing." A man made of orange rocks waved.
"I hear you're from Bensonhurst. I'm the from the Bronx. Nice to meetcha," Ben said in greetings.
"Well if it ain't the ever loving blue eyed Thing. You've always been my favorite member of the Fantastic Four. I was thrilled when you's guys stopped Galactus," Gina said as she shook his hands sounding like a starstruck fan.
"Old news. Sheesh! That was years ago. Forget about it. Lemme point out some of the other players here. This short guy with the bad haircut is Wolverine." Wolverine snorted in response.
"You already know Shulkie, here?"
"That's She Hulk! And you can call me Jenny. Grief. I hate the name 'Shulkie'.
"Ha ha. All right. This blue guy over here is Henry McCoy otherwise known as the Beast."
"Greetings, Supergirl or should I call you Gina? I was impressed with the way you dealt with Juggernaut. It normally takes all of the X-Men to defeat him," Henry said in greetings.
"Thanks. I can understand how it would take so many of you's guys to fight that guy. How many X-Men are there any how?" Gina asked as she put the food she brought on the table with the other food that was there.
"There are many of us. But it would take too long to state everyone's name. Our numbers vary just like the Avengers," Henry McCoy said.
"This gentleman is Eros also known as the Starfox," Ben said as he gestured to the strikingly handsome man with the red hair.
"Greetings. Real sorry what happened to Krypton. It was such a beautiful planet. And you're such a beautiful woman as well," Eros said with a charm and wit Gina had never heard before.
"Hey, you brought some hogies!" Ben said happily. "I'm glad you showed up Gina. !!MUNCH, MUNCH!! Mmm. They're good. Good job, kid."
Gina blushed and smiled as her cooking was appreciated. "Thank you, Mr. Grimm."
"You can call me Ben. Mr. Grimm makes me sound so old."
"Now that the introductions have been done let's get the game started," Logan interjected. As the cards were dealt Quasar and Jade made eyes at each other much to Gina's chagrin.
"Don't worry about it Gina. We've all had problems getting and keeping the men we want," Jennifer said as she munched on some of the food.
"So how have you dealt with the times when men weren't interested in you?" Gina asked the jolly green giantess.
Jenny looked at her for a moment as if Gina was crazy. "I didn't mean that's happened to me! It's happened to a lot of other women but not to me."
"Ha ha ha ha!" Ben laughed as he looked over his cards. "You gotta be careful there, Gina. Jenny here can be really vain sometimes.
"Vain?! I'm just telling the truth. That's all!" Jenny shot Ben a not too hostile glare and then looked back at her cards.
"And before you ask and embarass yourself, Gina, I'm already spoken for. Hey, it's all right, girl. It's okay that you find me irresistable. But you're strong. You'll get over it."
Ben went back to looking at his cards while Gina face faulted. Everyone else in the room stared at the Thing for a moment then went back to the game.
"I'm available, Supergirl," Starfox said with a charming smile.
"Uh, after being turned down by Quasar and this gorgeous hunk of man here," Gina said refering to Ben and Quasar. "I really don't want to settle for sloppy seconds," Gina said with a joking smile.
Everyone but Eros laughed at first then Eros joined in. "It wouldn't have worked anyway, Gina. You'd crush poor Quasar with your strength," Jade opined.
"So you had him in your sights all along, didn't you, Jade?" Gina said in an accusatory manner as she scrutinized her.
Jade blushed a darker shade of green to everyone's amusement. "It still wouldn't have worked. Since you're a nice, sweet Catholic girl, you'd have made Quasar wait for months. Where as I wouldn't have made him wait at all."
"How do you know how long I would make any guy wait? And it's none of your freaking business anyway!" Gina said raising her voice.
"I'm right and you know it. A virgin like you wouldn't know what to do with a man anyway. I'm sure there's some really nice guy with your name on him," Jade answered.
"Virgin?! What would make you say that?" Gina said blushing. "I let you come along with me to this poker game, you steal my prospective boyfriend and then you make assumptions about my love life. Never would I have imagined you treating me with such disrespect."
Jade looked at her for a moment. "I wasn't trying to insult you, all right? There are a lot of things you just don't know about. I know exactly what to do to make a man happy," Jade answered with pride.
Supergirl looked at her with a little bit of hostility. "And thank you for playing waaaaay too much information!" Jenny said out loud.
Then there was a loud knock at the door. It was so loud everyone in the mansion could hear it. When Jarvis answered the door he said "yes. Miss Powergirl, right? How can I help you..." But Powergirl rudely stormed right past the ruffled butler.
"Now see here, madam, you're being awfully rude." Jarvis tried to stop her but she moved to fast for him. After scanning the area with her x-ray vision she made a beeline towards the poker room.
She violently opened the door causing the people in the room to stop and stare. When she spotted Supergirl she glared at her and spoke to her as if she herself were a principal and Gina was a student who ditched class.
"What are you doing here?! Why aren't you patroling Metropolis the way you're supposed to? I knew Superman couldn't count on you!" Powergirl said shaking with anger.
"The breasts she has makes me want to cry mama," Eros said to Logan in a low voice as he regarded Powergirl's body as she was shaking in anger at Gina.
Having heard what he said, Powergirl shot Eros a hostile look but Eros still smiled not taking his eyes off of her "assets." When she gave an even more hostile stare at the titan he backed down. Then she went back to yelling at Gina.
"And who exactly is guarding Metropolis while you're playing around? Maybe you'll be fiddling while Metropolis burns? Now get out of here and come back to Metropolis right this minute!"
"What are you my mother or something? I'm sick and tired of you busting my chops like this. You're constantly getting on my case for no good reason except to judge and criticise me. And for your information I have a little device that allows Jimmy Olsen to call me if there are any problems. So take it easy, hamhock!" Gina answered hotly.
"Really? suppose Jimmy Olsen can't call you in time? What then, you reject from Rocky V?"
"Never would I imagine you treating me with such disrespect!"
Then Jade piped in. "Um, Karen. We were just playing cards here. It's a nice game how about joining us? We're about done playing this game and..."
"Shut up!! Don't you have something else better to do besides playing cards and trying to get in some guys pants?" she said angrily as she gave Jade a hard look from which Jade backed down.
"Well now, Powergirl," Eros said trying to calm her down. "There's no need for hostility. I can tell you're frustrated in your life. I can give you so much relief that you'll find pleasurable."
"No one's talking to you, you pervert!" Powergirl yelled at him hotly.
"You can't just show up here and start yelling at everyone. If you got something to say to me, we'll go outside and you can yell at me outside. You're disturbing these good people here with your red faced rant," Gina answered.
"I'm not disturbed. In fact, I'm enjoying the view," Starfox said with a charming smile.
"Hey, Powergirl, what's your problem? How about sitting down and relaxing. We're almost done here. Supergirl's been doing great as a superhero. So there's no reason for you to be mad at her," She Hulk said in Gina's defense.
"With all due respect, Miss Walters," Powergirl said coldly. "Supergirl has been doing a lousy job at being a superhero. She's goldbricking right now. Superman counted on her to keep his city safe. And she's sitting here playing cards."
"Sweety. We all need a break from saving the world every now and then. That's why we're here. So relax. Why don't you just sit down?" Ben Grimm said in an concilatory tone.
Before Powergirl could answer there was a huge boom outside. Then the wall turned into ice and shattered! Everyone turned to see several supervillains looking back at them.
"I'm searching for Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch. She's important to my plans," Dr. Doom said backed up by the other supervillains and his own maroon colored sentry robots.
"You mean our plans!" the Enchantress interjected. Dr. Doom shot her a hostile glare then turned back towards the Avengers Mansion.
"You thought you were rid of me, didn't you Supergirl? As you can see I've recovered from what you did to me. If I don't destroy you now I'll destroy you later when our plans have come to fruition," the Enchantress said with a wicked smile.
Standing there ready for battle were Titania, Absorbing Man, Techno, Airstrike, Solomon Grundy, Prometheus, Captain Cold, a juiced up Bane, Morgan Le Fey, Taskmaster, a sword welding Ravager and the villainous Cyborg who was dressed in a mockery of Superman's uniform.
"Enough! Bring the Scarlet Witch out to me, now! Or suffer the consequences!" Dr. Doom stated with authority. As the Avengers alarms went off more Avengers came to where the wall was destroyed from inside the mansion.
Captain America, Ironman, Hawkeye, Vision, Giantman, the Wasp and finally the Scarlet Witch showed up. "What do you want with me, Dr. Doom?" the woman in red asked defiantly without a trace of fear.
"I'm searching for the Omegahedron. And you will help me find it. Now come to me before I destroy you all!" Dr. Doom demanded.
"No!! Don't do it! If they get their hands on the Omegahedron they'll destroy the world! Don't give in to him!" Everyone looked up into the sky to see Captain Marvel. Next to him was Black Canary, Nightwing and Batgirl.
