Sarah's pov:
I am sick and tired of dad not listening to me and Harry. He cares more about his work than his children. He didn't even let me go to school like Harry, instead, I'm stuck at home with tutors and it's annoying. Harry's been there for me, and I've always had Harry's back as well. I thought things were going well, except for the fact that my brother's school is coming here for a tour. Dad wants me to lead the tour, just great, having his daughter do his work for him. I hate being his lapdog, but on the bright side, I'll get to see Harry.
I changed into my lab gear and headed down from the penthouse and to the main entrance. I saw Harry in front of the group with a girl and a boy with glasses and a camera. I was about to greet Harry when a giant kid with blond hair and wearing a jock jacket blocked my path. "Well, hello beautiful." he spoke as he put his arm around me, "Names Flash Tompson. What say you and I hang later on?"
"Flash! Back away from my sister!" my brother shouted.
Flash started to slowly back away. Seriously though, what kind of parent names their kid, Flash? Anyway, my brother hugs me tight and he introduced me to his friends, Mary Jane Watson or MJ for short. And Peter Parker, his best friend. Everyone else of Middletown High was confused, my guess, they didn't know that Norman Osborn even had a daughter. Shocking, I know.
I lead the group towards one of our labs. Dad uses this one to test radioactive gamma-rays in the DNA of spiders. I never understood why anyone would do that to innocent creatures. Anyway, I let some of the students look around or take pictures but they weren't allowed to touch anything. I couldn't stop looking at Peter, he may be a little nerdy but he does have a big heart.
The tour was over, the students headed back outside except for Peter. He asked me why I'm not in school like Harry. "Dad wants Harry to take over the company. And he thinks I should just be there to support him. I'm not like all those other rich girls who can go to parties or school or even out into the city." I explained.
Peter joined up with the rest of his class, my brother picked a good friend. "Sarah!" My father called out, "I want you back into the penthouse. Some of the spiders got out and I don't want you getting bitten by one."
I did as I was told and headed up to the penthouse. Dad never said I can't do my private work in my private lab. Oh yeah, one more thing you need to know, I'm a hero.
Not like the Avengers type of hero, just a solo hero that helps out New York. Anyway, I'm known as the vigilante Sorceress. I don't know how but one day, I woke up with these powers and I've been able to do magic. "Time for patrol," I said.
I changed into my Sorceress uniform, it was a black leathered suit with silver arm cuffs, black gloves and a black mask. I snuck out of the penthouse and used my powers to fly over the city. I kept on flying around the rooftops and listening to J. J. Loudmouth giving me a bad rep. He knows how to get on my nerves and the fact that he hates my guts says it all. I saw smoke coming from one of the buildings. A fire has broken out in an apartment.
The firemen were doing everything they could but a mother was looking for her daughter, Claire. She's still in the building "Time to be a hero." I said to myself,
I put on my oxygen mask and jumped to the burning building. I could hear the little girl crying for help and followed it. I could hear her crying from the other side of the door but it was blocked by some of the fallen wall pieces. I used my magic to move the debris and kicked the door down. I saw the six-year-old girl huddling in the corner and walked over to her "Hey sweety." I spoke to her in a gentle tone.
She looked up at me, she thought I was gonna hurt her "It's ok. I'm here to help. Just grab onto me and I'll take you to your mother." I said to her,
She nodded her head and grabbed onto my waist. The fire was spreading quickly, I picked her up and jumped out of the window, and landed on top of the firetruck. Everyone saw me, including the little girl's mother. I handed her daughter back to her and she even thanked me. "Sorceress is a real hero." said one of the firefighters.
I gave them a wave goodbye and left. I was just about to head home when something shadowed me from above. I looked up and saw the S.H.I.E.L.D Tricarrier, I may be a fan of super spies but this was a little extreme. "Impressed, aren't we?" someone behind me said.
I turned around and saw Nick Fury. He wants me to join SHIELD's new hero team, I told him that I would but I can't. I'm just used to being by myself but Fury told me that I needed a change in my life. "And I don't think we would want your father to know about this, Sarah Osborn," he said.
I was shocked that he knew my secret identity. "How did you..?"
"I know everything. Super spy, remember. Including the real reason why you became Sorceress, your past." he answered, bluntly.
He's not wrong, I was only twelve when my father told me that I was adopted. I tried to ask him about my birth parents but he didn't like that idea. I got my powers a few weeks after he told me the truth. He forbade me from ever using my powers. And to make sure no one would ever harm me, he also forbade me from ever leaving the penthouse so that I'm just invisible.
I told Fury that I want to find my true parents, so I decided to take his offer. "But know this, things are gonna change with your life. Starting with giving you an upgrade on your suit and getting you to interact with other teens. I've called your father and told him that you'll be spending a year on the tri carrier to help us. That will be your cover-up. Until then, you'll be sharing borders with one of your new teammates. And no need to pack, we've already got your stuff." Fury explained.
So spending a year on the Tricarrier, sounds more exciting than being cooped up in the penthouse. I followed Fury inside, the place was even bigger on the inside. He took me to the room where I'll be staying. When he left, I opened the door, and inside was a girl the same age as me but she has darker skin, black hair, and brown eyes. "You must be Sorceress or should I say, Sarah Osborn? Either way, I'm Ava Ayala. I'm also known as the hero White Tiger." She spoke to me.
This was gonna be a fun year.
