Ben slammed his fist against the wall. Reed had just told them about Johnny, and how much pain he had been in.
"So, your saying that if we try to save him, he gets hurt. And if we don't try to save him, he dies." He slammed his fist against the wall again and looked over at Susan, who hadn't said a word since they'd received the message from Reed. "What's the matter, Suzzie?" he asked.
Susan Storm took a shuddering breath and tried not to look at Ben. "God, Ben, Johnny's my baby brother!" She took another shuddering breath and stood up. "Okay, okay, let's go. I need to kill something."
The twosome ran down the hall, which was nearly identical to the one they'd been down before. They knew they were going the right way-Johnny was locked in a pretty big room, and the biggest ice room was at the heart of the building.
There was a problem, though. Actually, there were four big problems. Blocking their path were four huge ants that reached the ceiling.
Ben leaned over to Susan, "Ants? What's he doing, breeding a bug zoo?" Susan shrugged. Her whole body was already tense-ready for the fight.
"Ready?" Susan smiled at Ben. Of course she was ready. She needed something to take her anger out on, and four mutant ants were just what the doctor ordered.
Ben went forward first and slammed two of the bug's heads together. When that didn't stop them, he used shear muscle to defeat them.
Susan tried to distract the other two. She was invisible and circling around her prey. "Come on, stupid ants." She teased, moving quickly from one space to another.
"Come and get me, you know you want to." She teased again, upset that the ants couldn't see her smile.
Just as she was about to go in for the kill, a huge person blocked her path and took down her monsters.
"Ben!" she shouted, angry that she couldn't kill at least one.
Ben turned around, saw her appear, and dropped one of the already dead ants. "Oh-sorry Suzie. Did you want to kill one?" he asked, his deep gravely voice echoing off the walls.
Susan sighed. "Nah, it doesn't really matter. But the next huge mutant monster we come across is mine!" she smiled at Ben, to show she was joking. "Come on-my brother needs us."
Ben nodded in agreement, and the two took off down the hall again.
hey, you people out there! Review, please!
