Cragged Confrontation
"So, it's around this area huh?" wondered Vigor.
"Whoa, it's f . . . fr . . . freezing in th . . . this suit." shivered Invisigirl. "W. . . why didn't E put any heating in this th . . . thing?" She started to shiver some more. Tony smiled and gave her a long tender hug. Invisigirl smiled. The embrace was not only a long one, but it also very warm. "Thanks Tony."
"Yeah, anytime." He replied.
"Wow, isn't this thing really cute." complemented Vigor.
"Shut up Connor." laughed Invisigirl.
"Don't worry Vi. Let's keep walking, but really close together." said Tony. "Together where it's warm and safe."
Violet began to turn red. "Tony stop, your embarrassing me."
"Yeah Tony, look she's already blushing right now."
"Connor, I am not. Shut up. You are so annoying today."
"Well, either you are, or blush red is your normal skin color." laughed Vigor.
"CONNOR, SHUT UP NOW! I'M NOT BLUSHING!"
A moment of silence followed after that. Everyone could see birds flying away in the background. Invisigirl panted after that.
"Jeez, Vi, you can start an avalanche with that. Calm down okay?" Vigor said.
Suddenly, they heard a noise. It was not just a noise that a regular forest would make. This was the sound of a plane. Invisigirl, Vigor, and Tony looked up. They saw a gigantic plane above their heads. The three teens saw it descended slowly to the ground and moved out of the way. The airplane landed, and a door to it opened up. In an instant, a storm of SWAT troops rushed out and aimed their SMGs at the three teenagers. Vigor drew his two plasma guns.
"Drop the guns kid." commanded a troop.
"Wait guys. Maybe we can work this out."
"Did you hear me? Drop the guns now!"
"Look, can we talk?" inquired Invisigirl.
"Yeah, I have something to talk about." said someone. Senator Bernard Pine stepped out of the plane. "We can start with . . . giving me that disk right now."
Invisigirl took out the disk, she looked at it and glared at the demanding Senator. She shook her head. This frustrated him even more.
"GIVE IT TO ME RIGHT NOW!" he shouted.
"You want it? Come and get it." She responded.
At that very moment, Vigor fired two grenades from his plasma guns. They exploded on contact, killing many soldiers. The troops later fired their machine guns at the teenagers. Fortunately, Invisigirl formed a very big force field around herself, shielding herself and the other two boys. She waited till the troops ran out of ammo. Finally, they did. While the troops quickly reloaded, Invisigirl let down her field.
"VIOLET, TONY, DUCK!" commanded Vigor.
Invisigirl and Tony dove to the ground. Vigor spun around as fast as he can. While doing that, he discharged a barrage of bullets from his guns. A few of the soldiers were killed by the outpouring of bullets. Some were wounded. The rest evaded it, dropping their machine guns in the process. Invisigirl and Tony found an opportunity to strike. First, Tony picked up a SMG from a fallen soldier. He started firing rapidly to many of the soldiers that were still alive.
"Whoa," he said. Tony later felt the adrenaline rush into his body. "Oh yeah . . . this is what I'm talking about." He started firing like he was some crazed maniac. "YEAH, I CAN FEEL THE POWER! NO ONE CAN STOP ME NOW! I AM INVINCIBLE TONY NOW! I. . ."
"Tony, relax okay? This isn't a movie or some crazed fiction you know." said an irritated Invisigirl.
"Oops, sorry. I sorta got caught in the moment."
Invisigirl just giggled and turned invisible. She kicked a troop in the back. She then delivered a roundhouse kick to another troop. Tony fired the SMG at any and every soldier who came near. Vigor fired a green plasma beam at with one gun, and with his other gun, he fired rapid purple energy orbs the reloading soldiers. Tony fires his SMG at troops that are standing armed with a machine gun. After about a minute or so, Tony would run out of ammo and would have to pick up another machine gun. For many fun minutes, the teens would continue to beat down on the helpless troops. Invisigirl would beat the heck of the troops, Vigor blasted every soldier who tried to reload, and Tony would shoot at every soldier who successfully got to their feet, regardless if they had a weapon or not. Unfortunately, every time the teens would take down a troop, more would take his place.
"Man, don't these guys ever give up?" wondered Vigor.
"I don't know." replied Tony, picking up another machine gun from the snow.
He looked up and saw a troop. He delivered a sharp kick to Tony's chin. That kick sent Tony to his back. The SWAT troop began to strangle the young man. Invisigirl saw Tony struggling and ran to help. She lunged a punch to the body of the troop. Unluckily for the teenaged heroine, the troop ceased his strangle on Tony and turned towards Invisigirl. He caught her hand, causing her to gasp in surprise. While Invisigirl tried to break from the SWAT troop's graps, many other troops reloaded their guns and aimed them at Invisigirl. Before they had a chance to fire, a huge barrage of bombs, missiles, and explosives came showering down. The explosions sent the aiming troops flying into the air and crashing toward the snowy earth. That also distracted the troop who was grasping Invisigirl's hand. He turned and saw Vigor pointing his plasma gun at him. He fired an ice beam at him, freezing the troop.
"Thanks Connor." thanked Invisigirl.
"Yeah, don't mention it." He replied, he turned and saw Tony with his arms crossed with an angry glare. "Uh . . . sorry dude."
Suddenly, an outpouring of bullets came flying past the three teens. Invisigirl quickly puts up a force field. For some time, she blocks the oncoming bullets. Finally, Vigor has an idea. He told Invisigirl to create two small holes in her field. This was a difficult task for her because it took enormous concentration and a great amount of energy. Invisigirl focused and was able to form two little holes. Vigor pointed his plasma guns out of the holes and began to open fire. He fired a variety of projectiles. From one gun, he discharged bullets and green orbs, and from another gun, he fired blue plasma balls and purple energy bolts. Most of the projectiles hit the troops, knocking them down. Overwhelmed by the onslaught of the chromatic blasts, the SWAT troops turned to the heavy duty artillery. The machine guns were replaced with bazookas and rocket launchers. The troops fired an onslaught of rockets to Invisigirl's violet colored force field. About twenty rockets were blast to the force field. Now, if Invisigirl's pain worsens with a rock solid punch to her force field, imagine what twenty rockets would do. Invisigirl watched in panic as the rush of missiles gets closer and closer. The missiles collided with the force field. The impact made pain surge throughout her body. Panting in pain and overwhelmed by fatigued, she let down her field. Tony rushes to her side. Unfortunately, one final missile crashed around the area of the three teens. The explosion sent Invisigirl, Vigor, and Tony flying in different directions. All of them landed on the cushy, cold snow, moaning in pain. Slowly, they all got to their feet and reunited again. Once they all came together, they all collapsed to the earth, hurt and weakened. Suddenly, Senator Bernard Pine advanced to the fallen teens.
"How pathetic." He said. He later grabbed Tony by the hair and helped him to his feet. He later wrapped an arm around his neck and pointed his handgun on the helpless teen's head. Invisigirl got to her feet.
"No Tony! Please, don't kill him." She pleaded.
"Oh, I'll kill him, but I'll reconsider if you give me that disk." He demanded. Invisigirl took the disk out and stared at it. "GIVE IT TO ME OR YOUR BOYFRIEND DIES!"
"Vi. . . don't do it. What am I worth, compared to all the supers out there?" whispered Tony.
Invisigirl pondered on her dilemma. Finally, she got up and, despite the pain and her weariness, tossed the disk to him. He released his grasp on Tony and caught it.
"Good girl. You made the right decision. Sacrificing your own kind for your boyfriend." He turned and walked to his plane. "Well, goodbye everyone. Soldiers . . . do what you want to these pests."
Tony kneeled next to Invisigirl, who was now on her hands and knees, weeping. "Hey Violet, don't get so hard on yourself. You did what you have to do."
"Thanks Tony." She answered with a tearful look.
At that moment a troop gave a sharp kick to Tony's chin, sending him onto his back. Another troop gave Invisigirl three solid kicks to her mid-section. She rolled on the ground in pain. Vigor tried to get up, but a swarm of troops went to the helpless super and started to beat down on his back. More pain rushes as the troops pound mercilessly on Vigor's back. Some SWAT troops went to Tony and started to clobber the snot out of the boy. For poor Invisigirl, the remaining troops gave a numerous amount of strikes to her stomach. This would include punches, knees, and stomps. After about five minutes of taking a beating, Vigor laid agonizing in pain, Tony unconscious, and Invisigirl clenching her stomach, wailing in pain. A troop pulled out a hand gun and pointed right at a terrified Invisigirl.
"MICHAEL HELP!" she cried.
