Chapter 12:
Once inside the Helicarrier, Steve took all of us to a large conference room. Along hte way there, I noticed something.
A tall, blond man dressed in what looked like armor began to follow us. As we went along hte corridors towards the conference room, I turned & noticed that he was staring at my family's coat of arms, which I had on both my cape and on the front part of my Supergirl suit.
I also noticed that he was looking at me in what appeared to me to be a respectful & admiring way. That bothered me.
Still, if he was an Avenger, I knew that I was going to have to overcome my uneasiness & work with him.
The next thing I knew, I felt something getting gently slammed against my chest. I found myself looking at a large pink duffel bag that Alex had given me.
"What's in here?" I asked. "Some clothes. A few pairs of jeans, some t-shirts, and two pairs of your favorite Converse sneakers," said Alex with a smile. I just chuckled.
When she noticed a door coming up, Alex nodded at me, & I quickly changed. I emerged wearing a pair of blue jeans, black Converse All-Star sneakers, and a T-shirt with the cover of the Beatles's classic album "Abbey Road" on it. I opted not to wear my glasses.
Once in the conference room, Tony smiled & gave me a thumbs up. I guessed that he liked my T-shirt.
Once seated, Nick Fury came to the head of hte table & addressed all of us.
"Now that we are all here, let's get down to it, shall we?" he said. Steve then stood up.
"As you all know, Hydra is active again," he said. "S.H.I.E.L.D. suspects that they have joined forces with someone from the planet Krypton & intend to do great harm to this planet in an attempt at what we think is world domination."
"Do we have any idea who this Kryptonian is, Captain?" asked the blond man. "I think I do," I said.
Everyone then turned their looks to me. I knew that I had to voice my suspicion.
"I think it's Non," I said. "Who's he, Kara?" asked Bruce Banner. "Kryptonian general & a disciple of General Zod," said the blond man who had introduced himself to me earlier as Thor, crown prince of Asgard. I looked at him in surprise.
"You know who he is?" I asked in surprise. "I've heard of him, my lady. He's very dangerous," said Thor. I was now stunned.
How did Thor know who Non was? Did he know about Krypton?
If he did, I was about to find out.
