Maya's POV
Ever since we went out on our own as heroes, Generation Zenith has grown in popularity and numbers. So far, we have recruited 4 more members; there names are Avia, Galaxy von Justice, Calvin Reid, and Delilah Summers.
The first person to meet Avia was Shadow. He was helping the police capture some criminals that were trafficking drugs out of the US in California. During the bust, he would use his powers to capture all of the drug traffickers and tie them all up in shadow rope that he made. When he was chasing after one of the traffickers, Avia was taken hostage by this man and held at gun point. Shadow was about to save her, until a light came out of her hand and blinded the guy. She fell to the ground and was about to be shot by the trafficker, but she turned the gun into ice out of nowhere. This made Shadow catching the trafficker easy and he managed to detain him. After that, she asked him if she knew who she was since she couldn't remember anything from her past. Shadow brought her to me and I tried to help her, but I couldn't find any memories inside of her other than up to two years of her life and I simply couldn't restore them. We decided to take her in and do what we can to help her or if we find a clue to her memories; we gave her the codename Sorceress
Calvin found us while Daria(Blizzardstorm) and I were stopping a robbery at Stark Industries Iron Men base. It was by a HYDRA agent named Skylar Smith, also know as Stormbreaker; she has the ability to create wind. She was there to steal plans related to the Iron Men in hopes of finding out the original plans for the original Iron Man suit. Luckily, we were in the area and we got into our costumes to stop the robbery. I wanted to end this quickly by using my powers of the mind to get inside of her head, but for some reason it wasn't working; my guess is HYDRA found a way to block people from entering their minds or something. She would use her power of the wind to simply blow us away. Blizzardstorm would use the ice that she carried in her canteen and started to throw ice daggers at her, but they were thrown away. She would then get angry and create an ice armor for herself and simply charge at her. I would simply use my telekinetic abilities to hit her with garbage cans and other stuff that was in the area. Stormbreaker would simply blow them away to the point where were at a stalemate. Then suddenly, Calvin jumped on to Stormbreaker and she started to grow weaker for a moment. Then he began to control the wind himself and brought her down to the ground. This gave me and Blizzardstorm the upper hand and we managed to detain her and turn her over to the proper authorities. Calvin would then approach us and ask if he could be a part of our team since he heard about our team from the news. Since we were always looking for new members, I invited him to join us. He fully introduced himself to us as Calvin, but wanted to be called Copyman
As for Delilah and Galaxy, Shaun(Atlas) and Zed(Hermes) met them. The two were investigating a lead that our friend Randy(Radio) found for us. He said that it was at some church located in New Jersey. While they were investigating a shipment of goods being shipped from a Hammer Industries building to some unknown building, they could hear screams of pain coming from the church and the two decided to go and help. However, Zed placed a tracker that Radio made for us and placed it onto the truck in hopes that we could find it again. Hermes and Atlas would look through the windows of the church to see what was going on. What they found were people in green robes and had emblems that were similar to HYDRA's emblem. Zed would notice the two being tied up to two altars and the head man was saying: these two children of the snake venom will be sacrificed to free us from the snake deity that cursed us for so long. They weren't sure what that means, but they didn't want to ask any questions about it and went over to save them. Herms would run all around the church until he found an entrance that was accessible to him so he could run in without them noticing him and take Galaxy and Delilah away from the area. Atlas would cause a distraction by growing his hands an enormous size and break down the front door to get their attention. The guys in robes would attack him with swords and call him an infidel. Atlas would simply grow his leg and kick them to the wall. When he was about to be attacked from behind, Atlas would shrink his body so they wouldn't hit him. Zed would come back and help him fight against these guys in robes by simply running around as fast as he could , punch and kick them to the ground, and tie them up with rope.
With the guys in robes tied up, Hermes would make a call to the police so they could have these men detained. As they were waiting, a robot came from the sky and began shooting at them. The robot almost looked like a Hammer Drone that was discontinued a long time ago. It brought out a machine gun from all over its body and began shooting rubber bullets at them. Hermes would run around the church to avoid the bullets that were being shoot at him, while Atlas would make his arms and hands big enough to endure the bullets. Hermes would try and run up to it and see if he could sabotage it in anyway, but the robot would react to his speed by hitting him with a type of glue gun that would stick him to the wall. The robot would then shoot Atlas with a needle that made him revert back to normal and prevent him from using his powers. The robot was about to use some sort of weird spheres that were going to be used to capture them. Then out of nowhere small portals appeared out of nowhere and cards appeared around the robot. Then someone said Ice Spike, Fire Plume, Lightning strike, and Vines. The cards would then activate all over the robot and it would get covered in ice spikes, fire balls would explode all over its body, lightning would strike it, and vines would cover which would result in the robot malfunctioning. The people that saved them were Galaxy and Delilah. Delilah explained that she can open portals with her eyes anywhere that she sees or has been to. Galaxy explained that he can use the cards that he has and bring their powers to life; he can also cast a few spells too, but he only uses them in the event of an emergency.
After the guys in robes were arrested, Hermes offered to take Galaxy and Delilah home. However, Galaxy said that he would serve Generation Zenith since they saved his life and his chivalrous code demands that he pay us back. As for Delilah, she said that she ran away from home to get away from her rich family that lived in Paris. Since she had no place to go, Atlas offered her to join our team since her powers were useful and she could find a new home with them; she accepted the offer. While Delilah would go by the name Portal, Galaxy would simply call himself Galaxy The Number One Star.
(Back at Generation Zenith's HQ, which is a medium sized house in the mountains that looked like it was abandoned )
Hey Maya, how are you doing, said Zed
Fine, just resting and thinking, said Maya
I'm not a mind reader like you, but is this about what happened to Alyssa, said Zed
Yeah! I just having trouble with her being gone like that. I worry sometimes about what could happen to you, me, and everyone else. I've always know that being a hero doesn't mean we will always win, but I guess I never really imagined death, said Maya
Hey, I'll protect you. Just remember that you're not alone. If we all work together, I'm sure we'll survive this, said Zed
(Delilah appeared in front of them through her portals)
Hey guys, Radio has something for us, said Delilah as she opens a portal to takes them to Radio's room
What do you have Randy, said Zed
When we're in my room Zed, you call me Radio. Ok, I looked into that robot that you and Shaun fought a few weeks ago. While the robot in design is from Hammer Industries, they don't have it on record. I hacked into their system to see if they had buried the files somewhere. What I found, was a HYDRA file. The robots you were facing off against are something called the Ultron Adaptoid bots. They are designed to adapt to any super power or ability, said Radio
Like ours, said Marcus
How dare they copy our abilities; that is very impolite, said Galaxy
They don't have your powers on record…..for now. They had everyone who was in SHIELD Academy these past few months. They must have gotten your data from an inside man or woman Zed, said Radio
So there is someone who infiltrated SHIELD and took information from us. I bet that Stormbreaker lady was trying to steal the Iron Men suit plans to simply perfect them even more, said Zed
By the way Radio, did you find anything on those guys who kidnapped me and Galaxy, said Delilah
The only thing I could find about those guys was this news article from 10 years ago. Those guys call themselves the Cult of the Snake. They only appeared once in Texas. They captured a 13 year old boy that was the son of a politician and planned to sacrifice them. Luckily the police found these men and women and they were taken to jail. However, the broke out only a few weeks later; no ones heard from them since, said Radio
Did this person have powers like us, said Maya
I don't know. We would have to find out from the person himself, said Radio.
My question is why those snake guys would pop up now of all times
They want to sacrifice people that were given the powers of the snake venom, said Avia
Avia, did you just remember something about your past, said Maya
I'm not sure. While I don't sleep that much, I do remember hearing it in my sleep sometimes, said Avia
Do you remember where these ceremonies take place, said Calvin
No, said Avia
Maybe when you go to sleep, I can take a look into your find and find out for your dreams, said Maya
Later that night, Maya and the others would help Avia get to sleep since she was an insomniac. Normally she would sleep during team meetings, but she was kept up by Daria's ice. They managed to get her to sleep so Maya could get into her mind so she could see her dreams. Once inside, she saw a sewer full of people wearing the same robes, a small building, and the HYDRA symbol on what appeared to be canisters on them. As the dream continued, Maya noticed some writing on the walls that said Boca Raton. With this bit of information, the team knew that they had to head to Florida and find out what is going on.
