My Heroes: A Hero's Journey
Chapter 25: Generation next

"Okay Tristan, try it now!" Kirsty called down below her as she floated next to a small black box with a load of wires sticking out from it.

"Okay!" Tristan called back as flicked on the on switch. Suddenly, all the lights in the main hall came on and made the place much brighter.

"There, that's better is it?" Kirsty said as she landed back down on the ground.

"Oh yeah, I was way to dark for my liking," Mana said as she looked around the hall.

"It's okay, I suppose," Mai said as she, Mana and Kirsty sat down in front of a whole load of other wires, along with Tristan.

"You're handy when it comes to wiring," Tristan complemented.

"I'm pretty handy with a lot of things," Kirsty replied as she began sorting some of the wires out.

"I bet, you've probably got someone at home who say the same thing," Mai giggled, but just Kirsty shock her head.

"I'm afraid not," she sadly replied.

"Oh, well…maybe we can fix you up with someone here!"

"What? You can't be serious!"

"Of course I am! Come on, you can't you see it? It's like everyone just fits together around here!"

"Mai, that's not true," Mana replied.

"Oh really? Say, how's Mahado recently?" Mai asked as Mana's face suddenly went red as she looked away. "HAHAHA! See it is true! So come on, who takes you're fancy?"

At First Kirsty just laughed at Mai's comment, but suddenly she stopped laughing as the thought entered her mind. She thought about it for a sec, but then stood up.

"It's a ridiculous theory Mai," Kirsty said before walking away.

"Well, I think I'm right, have you seen Yami and Serenity lately?" Mai said as Kirsty walked off around the corner and leant up against the wall.

'What's the matter with me?' she thought to herself as she closed her eyes for a moment as the thought entered her mind again. But unknown to her…

"BOO!" Brian yelled as she jumped in front of her, but she just opened her eyes and stared at him blankly.

"Hey Brian," she calmly said.

"Aw, you're no fun," he said as he leant up the wall next to her.

"Feeling better now?"

"Yeah, although she was begging me to give me a physical!" Brian said as Kirsty laughed a little, knowing it was the other way round. "Where is she anyway?"

"Oh, she went out to get medical supplies for Kaiba, with some others."

"What! With out me!"

"Brian, a few hours ago you were dead!"

"And as lively as ever now! HAHAHA!"

Meanwhile, across town….

"Thanks for coming with me guys," Tea thanked her group members who walked with her.

"It's no problem," Mokuba replied. "Anything to get my brother better again."

"That's good, but why did you two come along?" Tea asked Joey and Valon who walked behind them.

"They made us!" they both yelled.

"Well, then you shouldn't of…" Suddenly, before Tea could finish, something or someone went shooting past them at rapid speed, so that they couldn't even see whatever it was.

"Whoa! What was that?" Joey replied.

"I don't know," Mokuba replied.

"Oh boy, anyone but HIM!" Tea responded as Joey and Mokuba looked at her in confusion. Suddenly, another person came flying in from the direction that thing just came from. He landed perfectly in front of the others as the blasts from his feet from his red and yellow suit, which were the things making him fly, died down as he landed. But he did not notice the fellow heroes who should on the sidelines watching him in amazement.

"What's the matter? Running already?" he yelled at the thing that shot past before as it suddenly shot back and should at a distance in front of him…

"Not a chance slacker!" he new speedy person said, not noticing the others either. "Now you're in for it!"

The two newcomers charged up, as they looked ready to crash with each other. Suddenly the speedy one shot out straight at him.

"Bring it…oh?" The other one said as he suddenly noticed Tea and the others who were standing there amazed. He stood up normally and went over to them as the speedy superhuman shot right passed missing him and clashed straight into the wall behind!

"AH!" he moaned as he fell down with his eyes swirling. "What you do that for?" he muttered as he other superhuman went up to the heroes.

"Who are you guys?" he asked.

"We could ask you the same question," Mokuba replied.

"Good point, let's see…most people call me Iron-man, but…" he said before taking of his red and yellow helmet to reveal his brown hair and brown eyes. "You can call me Jaden, or Jay, whatever is fine with you."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Tea," Tea greeted. "This is…"

"Nightwing," Mokuba interrupted, not quite wanting to give his identity away just yet.

"Hi," Jaden greeted, before turning to the other two. "And you are?"

"I'm Iceman," Valon said as he shock Jaden's hand, freezing his hand right though his suit glove.

"Wow, that's quite a head shake."

"Step aside ice-boy, let me heat ya up" Joey replied as he shock Jaden's hand as he iced melted from it. "I'm the Human Torch, the ladies call me Torch."

"Okay…" Jaden replied, not feeling to sure of him.

"Who's that then?" Mokuba asked, referring to the speedy superhuman.

"Oh, that's…"

"Chaz," Tea and Valon finished.

"That's THE Chaz!" the one now known as Chaz yelled as he jumped up, but then saw Tea and Valon. "Oh no, not you two."

"You know them Chaz?" Jaden asked.

"Yeah, they're a couple of those 'X' men, so you can call me Quicksilver now I know it's you!"

"Okay Chaz!" Valon agreed, which made Chaz more annoyed.

Meanwhile, on top of a building not to far away, a person stood on the rooftop looking down at them.

She had short black hair, a blue eye with a black eye patch over her other eye. She wore a black trench coat with a blue and white suit under it. Suddenly, she held up her gun, loaded it and smirked down at the heroes down below.

"Let's lock and load," she mumbled to her self.
