A/N: Sorry for the long wait, my computer messed up and I couldn't edit any of my stories for the longest time. Ruined my "Write a lot of chapters over Exam Break" idea, but oh well. Here is the chapter and again I apologize for the wait. I know how much it sucks when you wait ages for someone to add a chapter to a story, and I don't like being the person taking forever to update if I have a choice. Here's the latest chapter, enjoy.

Chapter Seven: Getting Alicia Back Part 1

Reed and Sue arrived at the alley way that Ben and Johnny had been at to find Ben sitting on the step cursing, an d Johnny lying on the ground exhausted and soaked. He attempted to have a little flame at his fingertips, but nothing. It was as if his flame had been extinguished. Ben slammed his fist into the ground.

"Ben, Johnny! What happened?" Sue ran over to them concerned. Reed looked around the alley. Water everywhere, cracks everywhere, trash thrown all over the place, burned trash off to the side... it was just a mess.

"Becky... she was... well... she was moving things around with her mind... threw that trash can at us, and other things. Then... the ice girl came... that's why there's water all over the place. And, why I assume, I can't get even a spark of flame." Johnny snapped his fingers hopeful, but there was still nothing. Reed walked up to Ben and sat next to him.

"We're going to get Alicia, Ben. I promise— "

"Don't make promises, Reed. Your promises mean nothing anymore. You rarely keep them, so do me a favor and keep your promises to yourself." Ben said. He got up and pointed at the road.

"That ice girl left a trail of ice behind. Big mistake, but I don't think it was an error. They want us to follow them, now." Ben started to step onto the ice that was covering the road completely and slipped, falling and cracking the ice. Johnny laughed.

"Ahh man you crack me up Benny. See the nice paved sidewalk beside the ice? How about we walk on that instead." Johnny suggested. Ben glared at him and attempted to stand up. He almost fell again, but managed to stay on his feet. Sue and Reed came up behind them.

"Johnny, did you say that this... Becky... was moving objects around?" Reed asked. Johnny nodded his head.

"Yeah, controlling them with her mind. She even morphed out of Becky into some chick." Johnny described what she looked like after morphing, and Reed stopped dead in his tracks.

"That's the girl that I was seen with in the restaurant!" Reed exclaimed. He stretched his arm across the street and grabbed a newspaper out of the trash can. He tossed it at Johnny.

"Does that look like what Becky morphed into?" Reed asked. Johnny nodded.

"Yeah. Pretty hot, actually... but evil's a bad thing, right?" Johnny asked. Sue rolled her eyes.

"We're never going to get there at this rate. Come on let's catch a cab and just tell it to follow this ice trail, it looks like it goes on a long way." The four of them looked as far as they could at the ice and nodded. Ben stayed back. "What?" Sue asked. She looked at him and realized what the problem was.

"Oh." Sue replied. With Ben's size, they'd need a huge vehicle to transport him. It was then that she realized that the Police Station was nearby.

"We'll call in a favor, Ben. Get them to drive you where we go as well, alright?" Sue asked. Ben nodded. Right now, all he cared about was that he was going to get Alicia back. Sue ran over to the payphone and called the police asking for a lift, then flagged down a taxi.

"Ben, make sure they know to follow the ice." Sue reminded him. They got into the taxi, leaving Ben behind to wait for the police to come pick him up in a heavy trailer that could hold his weight (A/N: Like in the movie after they first came out as the Fantastic Four, Ben got brought back to the hotel by some Police Trailer thing... that thing is what he's going in now).

"Where to?" the driver asked.

"Just follow that ice over on the other road. We'll tell you when to stop." Sue leaned back in her seat, figuring she might as well relax a little before they got ready to fight for Alicia.

"Hey, you're the Fantastic Four aren't you? Why don't you just get the Human Torch back there to give you a lift?" the driver asked. Johnny looked at the driver.

"Yeah, they could do that. If they wanted to be BURNED into a crisp! I can't fly without being covered in flame!" Johnny exclaimed. The driver looked in his rearview mirror at them.

"Yeah, but little Invisible Girl there can put a force field around you." the driver replied. Johnny thought for a moment.

"Actually, would that...?"

"NO, Johnny. I'd have to hold on to you somehow to fly with you, and I wouldn't be able to. Besides, a cab is less noticeable," Sue replied. Reed was silent in his seat. She didn't seem like the type who would use her special powers for evil like that. But... if she knows that ice girl, she must use her powers for evil. I can't believe I actually sat down with her. It was probably all planned out that way... for me to be away when Ben needed help, for Sue and I to fight because of what the tabloids would say. These people always seem to be a step ahead, even when we think we're ahead of them. Reed turned around as much as he could and looked behind the taxi. A bit of a ways back, the police trailer with Ben in it followed. Poor Ben... I feel so bad. He thinks now that my promises mean nothing. Maybe they didn't then, but I intend to keep this one. We WILL get Alicia back. I guess a lot of my promises have been broken... number two on the list, earn back the respect of Ben and show him my promises ARE kept now. Number one on the list is to get Sue back. Again.

"Leave the trail, Ice?" Jake asked. Ice nodded her head, inspecting her nails that were now all broken.

"You know that Johnny guy is gorgeous and all, but he made a BIG mistake in making me break my nails. They look horrible now." She whined. Jake looked at her, surprised.

"Your joking, right? You think that the Human Torch is gorgeous? ICE he's the enemy! You aren't allowed to be attracted to the enemy!" Jake slammed his fist down on the table and Ice smirked at him.

"What's the matter, jealous? Don't worry, Jake. He's cute, but he's no you." Ice leaned towards him, but backed away when the other woman walked in.

"Ugh, can you not do that when we're expecting company?" she replied. She walked over to where Alicia was lying, gagged and knocked out.

"Sorry, Morph." Jake grinned.

"And can you not call me that? You seriously can NOT make up names for people. Ice, Morph... its just sad. How about... Leah. Or... Rhia!"

"Morph sounds cooler. But if you're going to be picky, fine. Rhia," Jake stressed. Rhia nodded, satisfied. Ice rolled her eyes and walked over to the window.

"You're always changing your name, how do you even remember which one you're going by? And I'm surprised the Fantastic Four aren't here yet. Time's ticking by..." Ice added. They had already agreed that if at midnight, the Fantastic Four weren't there, they would move their hideout and play around with the Fantastic Four's feelings a little more. They would need to use Rhia a lot now... she could morph her appearance into something else, so it would be hard for the Fantastic Four to recognize her if she was always changing her appearance.

"Well, if they aren't here by midnight as planned, I say we take the girl over to a new hideout, go to the Fantastic Four's home, attack them there, kill the girl and live our lives destroying the good in the world." Rhia replied, laughing. She glanced over at Alicia again and noticed that she was soaking wet. "What's with the girl?" Rhia asked. Ice glanced at her.

"Oh, she tried to bite me when I took her to go get something to drink and to eat. I was going to freeze her, but I soaked her and knocked her out instead." Ice looked at her watch. "Their taking their sweet time, aren't they?" she asked.

"Thanks, don't bother to keep it running. We'll probably be here for awhile," Sue replied. She closed the cab door and Johnny went to run into the building but she put a force field in front of him, and he ran into it.

"Uh, OW!" He said, pointing at his face. "See this gorgeous face? You could have damaged it!" Johnny complained. Sue rolled her eyes and a deep voice came from behind them.

"The damage was done years ago kid," Ben replied. He hopped out of the police trailer and thanked them for giving him a ride. Johnny crossed his arms.

"The damage has been done to my face? Benny have you looked in the mirror lately?" Johnny asked. Ben shrugged.

"Say what you want kid, but I chose to be this way. Your face is stuck like that," Johnny glared at Ben but decided now was NOT the time. They quickly ran into the building.

A/N: Yeah I know I said there would be action in this chapter but because of the time between the last update and now I thought I'd just get out this chapter and split it into parts. Don't forget to review and thanks to those who did, and thanks in advance to those who are going to.
