Yep, new chapter, you get the picture… I'm just going to move on now.

By the way I still only own Heather and J

SuperminionXD

P.S. Just for clarification, Heather's telepathy has a sort of empathy as well, causing her to feel others' pain and stuff like that.

I'm going to crash.

I'm going to die.

So much for saving the world…

No I couldn't think that, I couldn't give up! What would J think, for goodness sake? I WILL NOT DIE! I managed to pull my head together and stopped myself with a jerk.

"Well that was close!" I commented aloud, looking at the ground that is just inches from my nose, I released my telekinetic hold and collapsed into the pavement. I pulled myself up and noticed the various people on the street, pointing and staring at me. Of course, to them I had just fallen out of the sky, they probably thought I was an alien or something. The foreign appearance of the people confirmed the fact that we were still somewhere in China.

J? Sue? Anyone?

I called out telepathically as I began searching for my teammates' minds, they must've been out of my range since I didn't feel them so, much to the shock of the street-people, I took off in search of them. I flew over the city buildings and neon chinesey signs, my telepathy must've been on the fritz since I didn't notice them until a loud 'voice' overpowered all the others, Reed's.

SUE!

I turned and shot towards the thought/scream, arriving the same time as a flamed-up Jonny. But it wasn't that I noticed first. I landed and looked over to where Reed was holding Sue, a large metallic lance-like object protruding from her chest. No! A tear streaked down my face, I could feel her pain. I stumbled forwards, ignoring the pain in my own chest as my eyes tried to take in the scene in front of me. Ben and Jonny ran towards the pair, J stayed back, his face plastered with an expression of pure horror. I blinked, somehow hoping the scene would change and it would be ok, nothing happened. The lance vaporised and Sue collapsed to the ground Reed was leaning over her talking to her. But I heard nothing, for once in my life everything was silent. Winds whipped round and the sky grew stormy, the words of the Surfer broke through the silence.

'HE IS HERE'

He stated simply as everyone stared at the twisting clouds. The world was going to end. I reach out and grab J's hand, it hung limp by his side as he stared in terror. I look at his fear-filled eyes, we have to do something! We can't just give up! Ben obviously has the same idea as he gripped Reed's shoulder, drawing his attention from his dying Fiancé.

"Victor's gotta have a pulse emitter linking him to his board" Reed concluded hurriedly, "We take it out, we separate him from his board"

"He's too fast for me" Jonny admitted.

"Same" I agreed

"I could whale on him, if I could get close enough, but he'd see me coming from a mile away" Ben concluded.

"I could help, but I can't fly to get there" J piped up.

"He has a Neural-neutraliser, I can't even sense him!" I pointed out, "All my telepathic attacks would be useless and telekinesis only works on things with mass, most of his attacks are energy"

"It would take all of us" Reed concluded

"Or maybe just one of us" Jonny corrected, I looked at him, realising what he was suggesting.

"We don't know what it could do to you" Reed voiced my thoughts.

"Let's not make this about me" Jonny said nobly, which was really strange. Realising it was the only option we all arranged ourselves so our hands were in the middle, like a team would do in primary school.

"You will give them back right?" J asked hopefully, I looked pointedly at him and he shut up so I closed my eyes and braced myself for the weird sensation.

Jonny was the last to place his hand as the strange cosmic energy washed over all of us I opened my eyes when I heard the 'whoosh' of him taking off. It was a strange feeling, not being able to hear anything except what was actually sound, because the truth is, even with my mental blocks up, I can still 'hear' a babble of noise, like a crowd whispering in my ear, and without it my head felt a bit empty and alone. I looked up, seeing and hearing the flashes and crashes of the battle above, there had to be something I could do to help. I glanced across at Ben, now normal, who was pulling on a hoodie from a nearby store.

"We can't just stand here!" I stressed, "We have to do something!"

Ben nodded in agreement, but neither of us had any ideas until J spoke up.

"Isn't that a crane?" he asked, pointing at the right angled silhouette on the skyline.

"J, you're brilliant!" I exclaimed, kissing him on the top of the head.

"I am?" he also exclaimed, "I mean of course I am!"

He tried to look smug as if he'd thought of it all along.

"Come on!" I motioned to Ben, "I'll explain on the way"

The three of us turned and ran towards where the base of the crane must be while I breathlessly explained my idea. When we got there I lifted J up onto my shoulders allowing him to climb over the fence, then he ran and opened the gate from the inside.

"Ok, you get up there, we'll handle things down here!" I shouted at Ben as he found the metal ladder to the control box on the right angle of the crane. But I had little time to dwell on this as a man came running out of the office area, waving his hands in the air and shouting in a foreign tongue. I stood with J and allowed the man to approach us, he calmed down when he saw we were making no attempt to run but continued to talk at us in what to us was an incomprehensible babble.

"Um… English?" I begged during a gap of the man's shouting, unfortunately he just gave a dubious look, especially at our strange attire, since we were still in our costumes, and motioned for us to follow him. It was then that he noticed the crane sweeping across the sky, causing him to resume his shouting, though this time directed at the control pod of the construction vehicle. I watched as the end of the arm slammed into the now de-powered Doom, sending him flying through the air and out of sight. Using this as a distraction J and I snuck away from the shouting man, we quickly met Ben who had climbed down the ladder and escaped the way we came in.

We ran as fast as we could back to the street where Reed knelt, the now barely alive Sue in his arms. Jonny landed and rushed towards his sister, returning mine and Ben's powers on the way. The once again rocky Ben grunted and ripped off the ruined hoodie. Tears sprang to my eyes as with my powers returned I could literally feel her life ebbing away. Reed looked distraught as he hugged her body and I was sure I was still in a state of shock, J's look of horror had returned.

But the Surfer stood apart from the group, his arm stretched out towards something, his board, I realised, with Doom's emitter destroyed it could now return to its master. I dragged my eyes away from Sue's lifeless form and saw the silver disk fly towards him. He stepped onto it, the surface rippled like water as the liquid metal seeped up, back to the surfer's body, making him shiny again. Lightning flashed and thunder crashed above us, but we weren't really aware of it, we looked at the once again silver entity.

"You've gotta go" Reed told the re-powered Norrin, but the silver man seemed reluctant, his blank silver eyes flicked towards Sue's limp form. He reached out his hand towards her body and moved it around her face as if he was manipulating something. I could see whatever he was doing took effort, dull patches appeared on his body and spread out, Sue seemed to glow white and I could sense her life flowing back into her. He was healing her! He pulled his hand away and the glow faded, he stood upright, the dark patches already shrinking, and looked down at us.

'TREASURE EACH MOMENT WITH HER, AND TELL HER SHE WAS RIGHT, WE DO HAVE A CHOICE' the surfer said solemnly before he turned up to the sky and floated off heroically. I looked from the now living Sue to Norrin's retreating form; again I knew I had to help. I looked across at Jonny, who had returned everybody else's powers, and was also staring after him, he looked at me then back in the direction the surfer had gone, I nodded.

"Flame on!" he shouted and took off after Norrin, I lifted myself off the ground but something caught my foot. I looked down, J grasped my ankle firmly, stopping me from taking off.

"Don't think you're going off to save the world without me!" he challenged.

I leant down and grasped his hand, telekinetically lifting both of us into the air. We sped to catch up with Jonny but rocks were coming at us, I tried to dodge but there were too many and it was harder to manoeuvre with two of us.

'J! Phase now!' I mind-shouted at my brother over the noise.

'But I've never done it on demand before' He thought-screamed back.

'You can do it, J, Come on!' I mentally yelled as a particularly large boulder headed straight for us, he screwed his eyes shut I could feel him concentrating, but the rock was hurtling towards us, there was no way I could dodge it. I braced for the impact but it never came, I turned and saw the meteor continue on its path to the ground.

'I did it! I did it! I did it!' J's internal celebrations pierced my own mind.

'No time to celebrate, we've got a world to save!" I sent him as several smaller rocks passed through both our bodies. It was easier to catch up now that we didn't need to dodge and we were level with Jonny when he grabbed the back of Norrin's board and try to boost it forwards causing the silver man to whip round and see us.

"Thought you might need a hand" Jonny offered, the Surfer nodded then resumed his flight with Jonny still attached and J and I following, careful to avoid Jonny's trail of flames. We flew up vertically through a tunnel of swirling grey clouds, only then did I realise how truly massive this thing was, this was only one part, one tiny tentacle of the massive entity. I stopped and froze in mid-air, so in awe that I forgot completely about holding us up until J's anguished scream. There was no way I could go any further, the rest of the creature was in space, and unless both of us had spontaneously developed the ability not to breathe we couldn't go there, and then of course there was the being ripped apart by a vacuum, that might be messy.

Anyway, back to the fact that both me and my brother were plummeting to our deaths, nothing like mortal peril to bring me back on subject! I quickly caught myself and reached out my hand towards J, freezing him where he was.

'Are you ok?' I asked him mentally as I pulled us telekinetically closer to each other.

'Don't EVER do that again!' he complained.

'I'll take that as a yes' I mind-spoke before breaking the connection. I looked up and saw that Jonny had also dropped back, leaving Norrin on his own flying up the twisting tunnel of cloud and rock. The three of us flew back down the tunnel and emerged above the large city, but as we looked down we saw more and more destruction, surely something would've happened by now? Then all of a sudden a bright white light filled the sky, piercing all the swirling clouds, then the light flashed red and a massive orb of light filled the sky before collapsing into a wave of dust. The light was gone, and so was the destroyer, so the world was saved after all. I saw the lights of the city flicker back on and felt the minds of the people as they came out from their hiding places and wondered how they'd survived. We landed back down on the street and Ben ran towards us.

"Hey! Hey!" He exclaimed.

"We did it!" Jonny also exclaimed

"Great job kid!" Ben congratulated and patted him on the back before I could protest.

"Whoa, whoa!" Jonny backed away from the physical contact, "Hey, wait, I'm not changing!"

He touched Ben again to test.

"Hey, that's right!" Ben agreed, an ecstatic Jonny grabbed Ben's head and kissed it then hugged him.

"Ok, now your making me uncomfortable" Ben admitted and Jonny backed away. I looked across at Reed and Sue, Sue was now conscious and standing with Reed's support. She looked up and saw her brother before breaking her fiancé's grip and running to hug him. Ben hugged Reed, it was like one massive hug-fest.

"Hey! Don't I get a hug?" I protested, looking down at my own younger brother, he grinned lob sidedly and allowed me to lean down and hug him.

"Just to point out, this is a one-time thing" he whispered in my ear, expressing his embarrassment at being twelve and hugged by his sister.

"That's what you think!" I replied in his ear. "And Sue! You're alive!"

I released J and ran to her, hugging her too, but I drew the line at hugging the others, I don't really do hugs unless it's to embarrass J. We all stopped hugging and stood in a row of six.

"So I guess this is it" Ben commented, "We all go our separate ways"

"No"

"No?"

"No"

"No?"

"No"

"Enough with the 'No's' already!" J snapped.

"If it wasn't for the team the whole world would be gone by now" Reed concluded.

"We can't walk away from our responsibilities and the people we need to protect, this is who we are!" Sue agreed.

"That's what I've been saying!" Jonny protested.

"And what about having a normal life, a family?" Ben asked

"Who say's you have to be normal to have a family?" Reed challenged.

"Fantastic 5: 1 Big planet destroyer thing: 0" I announced randomly.

"You just had to ruin the moment, didn't you" Jonny accused, I shrugged.

"Six" J corrected.

"Nope, not happening, besides it doesn't sound so good" I objected, "You could be like our junior section or something"

"Hey, I'm nearly 13!" he protested.

"Exactly" I replied, "Hey, Reed can we have Sidekicks?"

My question was promptly ignored.

"So, you up for another media circus wedding?" Sue asked Reed, "Fifth times' a charm!"

"No, I've got a better Idea" Reed concluded

How Jonny uses Heather and J's powers in the battle I will leave up to you and your imaginations, as for the crane thing, it always struck me as odd that Ben was able to commandeer a construction vehicle with no problems whatsoever, so I decided that Heather and J could act as a sort of distraction, I hope it worked ok.

I hope you enjoyed this, as before there will be two epilogues, one of the wedding and another of my own writing. As I said there will be a sequel so keep following!

Bye for now,

SuperminionXD
