Jade titled her face up as the sky fell around her. She was drenched, but out in the rain it didn't matter. She listened to the sound of the rain hitting the rooftop of the hotel. Each one let out a small vibration that joined with other vibrations and the bouncing off objects, allowing for Jade to 'see' the roof.
Jade shuddered when a heavy blanket was placed on top of her, "Hey, Lumaria."
Lumaria, also known as Opium, one of the best British mutants to live in London, adjusted the blanket of vines. She stepped back and ran a hand through her wet hot pink hair. Lumaria smiled at the sight of Jade.
The other girl's brown hair was sticking to her neck and clothes. Jade's green and black clothes were dripping with excess water. Her dull green eyes where closed as raindrops ran down her face, mimicking tears.
"You know," Lumaria said, "I've never seen you cry. You've been sad, yes. But you never cry."
"I can't." Jade sighed, "Doctors, actual ones, not one like Doctor Strange or Doctor Who, but medical doctors. Well, they say because of my inability to see, tears do not form in my eyes."
The British mutant glanced over at the Canadian mutant, "Jade?" she paused before continuing, "I have a question. You don't have to answer it, but, well. I kinda want to know."
Jade rested her arms on the concrete barrier on the edge of the roof, "What is it?"
"Well, I was wondering, do you ever, I dunno, want to see? Like not be blind?"
"Yes. I want to see. Even if it's only for an hour. I want to know what colors are. I want to see people. And not to sound self-centered, I want to know what I look like."
Lumaria hummed softly, just loud enough for Jade to hear that she was paying attention.
"It's hard, eh? Being blind in a world were everyone sees. They try, but they never understand."
"What about people like Daredevil?"
Jade through her head back and laughed, "He's the farthest thing from blind. Daredevil was able to see before, so he knows colors. And he has a radar sense, that makes it so that he does not crash into things. Hero's like him have never been truly blind."
"Oh?"
"I've never been able to see. Ever. Unlike most children, my brothers did not need to push me down the stairs. I fell down them every other day. Despite my knowledge of where everything was in the house, I still ran, crashed, and bumped into things. I sprained my ankle by tripping over a large rock, nearly chopped off my fingers with a knife, and walked into the coffee table so many times I though I would have a perminate bruise. Being completely blind is different than being able to see and then be plunged into nothing."
"Wow." Lumaria said, "You really know your stuff."
Jade shrugged, "It comes with the job."
-XXX- Paris, France. AKA the City of Lights
The newly named Nova's Team was in France again. Only this time, it was as superheroes and not tourists. Electro had somehow jumped from New York City to Paris.
"And now!" Electro voice bounced off in surround sound, "The city of lights will be become the city of darkness!"
White Tiger and Nova peered into the darkness, barely able to see there hands. The sky wars cloudy, blocking all possible light from the moon and stars.
"I can't see a thing!" Nova exclaimed.
"Oh no! What a nightmare!" Came the very sarcastic reply.
"Sorry, Black Fang."
"Well if you to are done complaining about your lack of sight, I assume I should lead the way."
"Alright."
"If that was said by anyone else, I'd think they would be trying to be the boss."
"Wait, Wolfie."
"Don't call me Wolfie, Opium."
"Nova, do your glowy alien thingy."
"The what?"
"The glowy alien thingy. You know, when you turn blue and shimmery and fly."
"I think that's to many and's. Are you sure you were raised by rich famous people?"
"You don't question my very vague back story! Just because I'm random character does not mean you can judge my vague past."
"You should meet Deadpool. You two smell of insanity."
"There you go with the smell thing. By the way, what does insanity smell like?"
"Uh, insanity?"
"Girls, girls."
"Excuse me. I am a lady."
"Ladies, please. You're both pretty."
"We weren't arguing about that."
"Ehehe, aboat. Can you be anymore Canadian?"
"Yes."
"Guys, please!"
"Girls!"
"Alright! Fine! We have a villain to fight!"
"Nova! I choose you!"
"THIS IS NOT A POKÉMON BATTLE, OPIUM!"
"It isn't?"
"Gah!"
..."Hey, guys? Does anyone hear Black Fang? I think she ninja'd on us."
"Nova, turn into the glowy Pikachu!"
"I'm not Pikachu!"
"You're yellow, black, red and have powers to blue lightning! You are Pikachu!"
"I'm not Pikachu!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"If I'm Pikachu, who's Tiger?"
"Shira. From Ice Age?"
"How old are you? Six?"
"Plus eleven!"
"Um, guys?"
"What is it, White Tiger?"
"Black Fang, Tala, and I locked up Electro."
"Oh."
"Oh, and Nova?"
"Yes?"
"You are Pikachu!" Black Fang darted away before Nova could growl out her.
"I'M NOT PIKACHU!"
A/N: There you happy now, brother? Now, will you stop talking about Poke Mon! (Why did I read that in Thor's voice?)
NyanWolf: They will. Eventually, I just need the right episode. Spiderman is a good character, if the show didn't have three and a half seasons of being attached to the original team. And all the Spiders are making my brain explode. I keep forgetting who joined when and why.
Death Note is amazing. And L does rule. In fact, I only watched the series because my two anime obsessed friends were fangirling about this one time were I was sitting like L, eating cake, and explaining the psychological part of swimming upsidedown underwater. I decided to watch Death Note and then was like, "Ohhhh. So I am L."
TabbyCat: 1)Thanks. 2) I have plans for another Deadpool chapter. I just need to find a whole lot of sugar. 3) Danny will come. BlackIron (or something. I'm still trying to figure out their ship name) has to continue. 4)Thanks for reviewing, it really means a lot
TheImmortalWeapon: Oh my gosh. You read my stuff! I'll explain Danny's frustration when he appears. And yes, I'll will use your idea. I've been trying to figure out a way for Jade to have sight, but still be blind. Thanks so much!
