Jealousy

Ok I dunno what I'm gonna do. Continue with this story or make a sequel.

Reed and Sue sat in the front of the 'car', Ben in the back, Merc and the Surfer sat in the middle and Johnny had to fly along outside the car.

"Ok so we have to find Victor." Reed said.

"We get that." Merc said. She dragged her hand through her hair, trying to keep it out of her face. She looked down at her little steering handle. She had no clue why it was there but it was and she was pretty sure she was going to find out why soon enough.

"Norrin Radd." The Surfer said.

"What?" Merc asked, looking at him.

"That was my name." The Surfer said. Merc smiled at him.

"I like it. Don't worry, Norrin." She said. Johnny watched the exchange as he flew by Ben's part of the 'car'. His eyes narrowed at the two.

"Jealous?" Ben asked.

"Hardly." Johnny lied. He and Merc were weak as relationships went. There was the possibility that they could break easily. He didn't like when Merc smiled and put her hand on the Surfer's shoulder before saying something. He was beginning to wish she'd stop turning her communicator off.

"Guys!" Reed yelled. "We've got company." Ahead of them was Victor in all his Dr. Doom glory and flying on the Surfer's board. Merc narrowed her eyes at him. Reed tried yelling things at Doom but the other man paid no attention and shot his electricity beams at them. "We're gonna have to separate!!"

"WHAT?!" Merc, Sue and Ben all yelled. Reed hit something and the three parts of the car broke apart. Merc jumped and grabbed hold of her steering. She flicked her communicator back on.

"We have a problem here Reed." Merc said.

"What?" Reed asked.

"I CAN'T FLY ANYTHING!!" Merc said. "I can barely drive a goddamn car and you want me to…" She turned sharply to avoid getting hit with the blue lightning bolts.

"Just do what you're doing." Reed said.

"Keep your eyes on one of us Merc." Johnny said.

"LOOK OUT!" Ben said. Merc looked up as Victor shot at a mountain and the rocks were falling down on them. She used one hand to steer and the other to throw the rocks away.

"You doing ok, Norrin?" Merc asked, glancing at her passenger.

"Yes." Norrin said.

"Sorry if I'm shaking you up a bit." Merc said. She dropped them down quickly to avoid hitting more rocks. They skimmed the top of the water below them before Merc managed to pull them back up.

"For someone who can't fly…you're doing well." Norrin said. Merc smiled.

"MERCY LOOK OUT!!" Johnny yelled. Merc just started to steer in a different direction when Doom finally managed to hit them. They went down, spinning. Merc squeezed her eyes shut. She felt a hand on hers. They crashed down and Merc blacked out for a minute. When she came to, Norrin was no longer with her. Her head was killing her and it looked like she was in china town.

"How appropriate." Merc muttered, unbuckling and climbing out of the car. "Damn it…Norrin!" She looked around and then spotted him. He was standing, unharmed, and looking at Doom who was floating a distance away. "NORRIN!" Merc ran as she noticed Doom form a spear and start towards Norrin. She had completely forgot about the last time she tried her powers on an occupant of the board as she stopped right in front of Norrin and threw her hands up. Doom slowed down and it took just a bit longer for him to reach them then attended. Either way though, the spear didn't hit its original target…it hit Merc, right between her ribs. She seemed stunned as her arms dropped and then her whole body crumbled to the ground…or at least would have if Norrin didn't catch her. As the others arrived, Johnny launched a huge fireball at Doom, throwing him away as he landed and flamed off. Ben, Reed and Sue all jumped out of their seats and ran over.

"Oh god, Merc!" Johnny said.

"Ow." Merc said. Sue did something that got rid of the spear.

(((A/N: I honestly do not know what she did in the movie. I thought she just turned it invisible but apparently she got rid of it.)))

"You protected me." Norrin said.

"Just…paying you back." Merc said.

"We're not going to be able to beat Doom." Reed said. "It would take all five of us and he'll always see it all coming."

"Or it could take one of us." Johnny said.

"Johnny…" Merc said.

"I'm not making this about me, Mercy." Johnny said. "We've already proven that I could hold two powers at once so…maybe I can hold all five."

"What other choice do we have?" Sue asked. Merc just nodded and held up her hand. Sue put hers on top of Merc's, Reed put his on Sue's and Ben put his on top of all of them.

"Wish me luck." Johnny said.

"Don't get killed." Merc said.

"Close enough." Johnny said, putting his hand on top of all of them. Ben became normal looking as Johnny flamed on and disappeared. Ben looked at his niece before getting up and leaving her range of vision.

"Sue." Merc said. Sue looked at the younger woman. "This hurts way too much."

"You'll make it, sweetie." Sue said. "Just hold in there for a bit longer." Merc whimpered and shook her head. "Yes, Mercedes you have to." Reed took Norrin's place, having Merc's head on his lap as the Silver Surfer rose and watched Johnny and Doom fight it out above them.

"We lost you on the team once before and we're not doing it again." Reed said. "You have to hold on." Reed and Sue knew what they were asking was being a bit selfish. It was obvious that Merc was in pain and bleeding quite a bit. They were more worried about how Johnny would handle it rather then how they would.

"I can't do it guys." Merc said. Ben came back and Merc smiled weakly at him.

"Hey, sweetie, hang on." Ben said. He brushed her hair back from her forehead.

"I love you, Uncle Ben." Merc said.

"Don't you dare!" Ben threatened.

"What are you gonna do to stop me?" Merc asked, quietly. Sue was crying by this point and Ben looked pretty close to it. Johnny was suddenly back with them and gave them all their powers back. "Don't think that'll work, hot shot." Everyone looked up at the giant black cloud that none of them really even noticed before that was also sinking down towards them.

"He is here." Norrin said. He looked at his board and stepped back onto it. His feet molding back into it. He came over to them as Merc's eyes closed. Johnny sniffed and rubbed his eyes while his sister hid her face on Reed's shoulder. Norrin put his hand over Merc's throat and there was an odd glowing. Everyone looked at him. He looked at Johnny. "Let her know that you love her and cherish her."

"Wha…" Johnny went to ask but never got it out as Norrin went up into the air and into the cloud. "He's not gonna make it properly by himself."

"What are you thinking?" Ben asked.

"Flame on." Johnny said, doing as he said and flew into the air after the Surfer. Ben watched him and looked at Merc. She was completely still. Ben looked around as the cloud suddenly drew back very quickly and vanished. He saw Johnny coming down to the ground and went over. Sue and Reed looked at Merc. She suddenly jumped, gasped then started coughing. She looked up at Sue and Reed and smiled.

"What I miss?" Merc asked. Sue laughed and hugged her before Reed helped her stand.

"You did good kid." Ben said, slapping Johnny lightly on the back. Johnny jumped away from him and both of them waited for the switch but nothing happened.

"Hey!" Johnny said, smiling. He hugged Ben then quickly stepped away from him as he realized what he was doing.

"Hey guys…I think someone wants to see you." Reed said. Johnny and Ben looked over at them and both of them stared at Merc. Johnny was quicker to get over the shock then Ben was and he ran at his girlfriend, hugging her, spinning her around, then kissing her.

"Never, ever, ever do that again!" Johnny said, resting his forehead against hers as he set her down. "I love you too much to let you go."

"Good to know." Merc said. Ben coughed. Merc looked at him before stepping away from Johnny and hugging her Uncle.

"Quit scaring me, kiddo." Ben said.

"Where's the fun in that?" Merc asked. Once Ben released her, she went straight back to Johnny as the five of them started walking away.

"So…now what do we do?" Reed asked.

"I feel in the mood for something light…easy." Sue said.

"How about a wedding?" Merc asked. Johnny looked at her. "I mean Reed and Sue. We've been doing so much stuff we've basically ignored the fact that they're engaged."

"Merc is right." Reed said. "So what do you think? Big celebration…or low key?"

"Definitely low key." Sue and Merc said together. They laughed.

"Well what do you have in mind?" Johnny asked. Merc smirked.

Few Days Later…

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today…" The minister said. Merc was standing next to Alicia, both in purple dresses, holding a small bouquet of flowers. Sue was in front of Reed in a beautiful Japanese styled dress. Johnny and Ben were across from Merc and Alicia. Johnny winked at Merc who smirked.

At that moment Reed's PDA went off. The Fantastic Five members groaned as Reed looked guilty but pulled it out.

"It's just…some place sinking back into the ocean." He said. "Nothing big."

"Maybe just skip to the end." Sue said, smiling slightly.

"Um…if anyone has any…" The minister said.

"No like…right to the end." Reed said.

"Oh um…" The minister said. Merc and Johnny both looked as if they were holding in laughing. "You may now kiss the bride." Reed and Sue kissed each other and everyone there clapped for them.

"Ok, let's go." Reed said.

"See you later." Ben said, kissing Alicia gently as the others headed for the car, all fixed up and ready to fly again.

"Reed…I have to throw the bouquet." Sue said.

"Ok." Reed said.

"Ok girls, get ready." Sue said, turning her back to the girls.

"Good thing for you Merc isn't in that crowd." Ben said, climbing into the back of the car.

"She wouldn't catch it anyways." Johnny said.

"Oh really?" Merc asked. Sue threw the bouquet and Merc looked up at it. It froze and everyone looked at it confused as it went the opposite way that it was thrown. Johnny panicked just a bit and faked a cough so that he could bring his hand up and throw fire at the flowers, which fell to the ground, burnt. Merc looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Reflex." Johnny said. She pushed him over and sat next to him in the middle section of the car.

"Ok love birds, let's go." Merc said. Reed and Sue got into the car and it flew off into the air. Merc, who was in control of steering again, made Reed hit the separation button. Johnny looked at her in surprise then laughed as the three sections formed their symbol in the sky before flying off to save the day.

THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY!!!!!!!

I know, corny chapter ending, like the movie though (I couldn't remember what place was in trouble. I think it started with an S). Well for those who never saw the movie, this is pretty much what it was like (minus Merc and half the dialogue). I didn't add in Johnny and Doom's little fight because there was no way I'd be able to do it and do justice to that scene (which is an amazing scene). But think about this all you movie viewers. Doom didn't actually die again. He just sorta sank to the bottom of the water. So he can be a potential threat all over again…again.

SHOW OF REVIEWS!!!! HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL READ THE SEQUEL IF I MADE ONE?????
