Avengers Kids at Highschool chapter 9
High school chapter 9
Lauren's POV
I wake up disorientated, my head throbbing painfully. The gas from the bus hadn't fully left my system, and the side effects were taking affect. I open my eyes slowly afraid to find where I was. I couldn't see anything but darkness that acted like a shield from what would come, and a cage… Suddenly a light flicked on and a blink a few times to get used to the sudden brightness that chased my shield away.
"So you're awake. You took longer than I expected, especially for a demigod." A deep voice said.
I was about to snap back with a snide remark until I saw his face. It was a boy in his late 20's and he had a scar that ran down the side of his face. He had jet black hair and black eyes. (If that was even possible) He wore a black T-shirt and black cargo pants. I narrowed my eyes, not what I was expecting, but that didn't mean I couldn't use this against my captor.
At that moment I realized that I was strapped to a chair. A moved my shoulders experimentally and winced at the binds that bit into my skin. A started to feel dizzy and really hot, my skin felt dry and cracked and I could already feel the blood seeping through the new cut on my arms. It felt like I was sitting in a sauna. Being half frost-giant heat was like an old enemy, I might never get cold, but when the heat was up it was like someone was slowly peeling away my skin layer by laye, this was the worst kind of torture for a frost giant. Torture...my eyes widened at the realisation.
"Who are you? What are you doing to me?" I ask
The boy chuckled a dark chuckle. "In due time...all these questions will be answered." He talked kind of funny, kind of formal. This was strange, this wasn't how I expected to be tortured.
At that he started walking out of the room...no glass room. The light flicked back off and the darkness returned, except this time it felt like it was suffocating me, not welcoming me. The room was gradually becoming hotter as well and I could almost see my skin cracking. I was about to shout out to him but my throat was too parched.
I tried to summon some magic to cool down the room but my magic sparked uselessly.
"Shit. He rigged the room so that I can't use magic. Smart bastard." As I thought this I started to store my magic so that if I had a chance of escaping I could teleport myself out of here.
Athena's POV
I was jolted awake as a surge of lightning, no electricity ran the length of my body. I grunt in pain but it wasn't bad enough that I would scream. I found it was strange that electricity would strike me because I know how to control it. It felt weirdly like a betrayal of an old friend that had always been with me. I was use to electricity so it didn't really affect me...yet. I felt as if my lightning was being sucked out of my body.
I heard a dark chuckle and turned to see a boy with his hand over a button. He pressed it and another jolt of electricity went up my whole body. My back arched in my seat as the electricity ran through my body. This electricity felt dirty, man-made, not the pure lightning I could summon. I didn't make a sound this time. I don't like being seen as weak, not when my father was a god.
"Who are you?"
"That's the one question you all say. My name is Ivan the leader of The Broken."
"The lamest name I've ever heard. Seriously...The Broken? Couldn't you have thought of something better?" I laughed
He didn't seem to find this very funny because he held down the button harder and for longer. This time I screamed out in pain, and mindlessly thrashed against my bonds. He then chuckled hysterically and I could already see that he was mad inside. "You sick bastard." I snarled
He only smiled in response as if it was a compliment. "Don't worry I'll forgive you at the moment, as you are new. You will soon learn to respect me."
"Keep dreaming." I retorted
His face contorted in anger and he left me in the room. I tried to fry the straps that were binding me to a chair. But when I tried to, the straps electrocuted me back but doubled in power. The pain went all the way to my head ripping through my mind and scattering my thoughts.
Tommy's POV
I have been awake for a while now, I couldn't see anything though. The room was pitch black, except for the little amount of light my arc reactor provided, the perks of being a walking flashlight. I was sitting in a metal chair (a very uncomfortable one) thinking at a million miles an hour. It felt like someone was searching my brain and I really didn't like it when people did that, (If that was even possible) I was solving all these puzzles in my head. Some complicated, some so easy that I didn't need to concentrate. I don't know what brought me to think about all these riddles and puzzles but I felt like I had to do them. But there was question in my mind that set me on edge. Why do I feel the need to solve all these riddles, puzzles and math problems? Was I going mad?
I have been going at it for hours. I feel like my head is going to implode because of the overload of information. I had a headache that felt light someone had split my skull. And to make it worse I was in total darkness. I tried to think of anything else but the puzzles, but my mind kept reverting back to them.
"You're nearly done with the IQ test." A deep voice rang out in the darkness. "Then I'll allow you to take a break."
I couldn't even register his words. My thought process was going at a million miles an hour. Although a little nagging voice in the back of my head told me I should be scared, but why should I be? It was just me and my thoughts…
Stella's POV
Faster, faster, were the only thoughts that ran through my mind.
I sprinted as fast as I could. I pushed my legs to go further, glad for once in my life that I was half super soldier. I could hear these growls behind me, chasing me. They were feral and I didn't have time to look back to see what they were. And if I was honest with myself, I don't want to. I caught a glimpse of glowing red eyes to the side of me and that just scared the hell out of me.
I've been running for a couple of hours straight, even though I was half super soldier, the tiredness was coming in my legs. My legs killed and more I was starting to stumble. The animals were so close that I could sometimes feel its hot breath on the back of my neck, I had to keep going. I was getting scared that I wouldn't be able to run any longer, but then the driving force of living would kick through and I would give a little burst of speed and keep going. Just then I spotted a tree up ahead. It was high enough from the ground and low enough that I could jump onto the lowest branch.
Taking this opportunity, I jump up and landed in the branches. I looked down to find these creatures glaring up at me with red glowing eyes. When I looked into its eyes, it felt like I was looking into pure and utter darkness, it felt like it was staring at my soul, finding the best way to destroy it. It felt like shadows were constricting my chest and I closed my eyes trying to get rid of the suffocating feeling. After a while I worked out that by not looking at it I felt better, stupid animal.
I have no idea where I am. I gazed up to the horizon and looked around. I couldn't see a single building in sight. If I wasn't already panicking, now would be the time that I start. I felt light headed and tried to clear my thoughts. I looked back down at the creatures; they were pacing around the tree. They almost reminded me of lions stalking their prey, although they were nothing like lions. They looked like beasts sent from hell, I would actually rather roll around in meat and walk into a cage full of hungry lions.
The creatures were like nothing I had ever seen. They were like a huge lizard with two heads, its tongue flickering out like a snake. It ran surprisingly fast for a lizard. It had long canines like a dog and glowing red eyes. The scales were jet black that glinted in the moonlight. It had three talons on each foot that were massive, even Wolverine would be ashamed. If looks could kill, I would be dead right now.
It looked up unsure of what to do, but then something shifted in its eyes. As if it just figured something out. It got up on its hind legs and leant with its front legs on the tree trunk. The tree quivered because of the weight of the creature. My eyes widened in horror as I realised what it was about to do. It began pushing with more force and the bark of the tree started to crack. I looked around for anything I could use to defend myself or to escape.
I realised then that the tree was situated on the edge of the cliff. I peered over the edge of the cliff and saw a river. The river was rushing downwards to a waterfall. I can't tell how deep it is from where I am but it was worth a shot. But if I do jump, I'll probably end up down the waterfall to who knows where. But I'd rather die jumping off a cliff than dying a slow painful death by this creature. At least jumping off a cliff is quick and painless. (I hope) Before I was about to jump I saw rocks with jagged edges breaking the surface of the water. I paled at the thought of how much it is going to hurt if I landed on one.
"Here goes nothing." I muttered to myself.
Just as the tree snapped in half I jumped off plummeting down the cliff. My hair flew up above me and my heart leapt into my throat. I crossed my arms over my chest and squeezed my eyes shut waiting for the impact.
Carmen's POV
Darkness, shit. Opening my eyes I looked around, still dark, double shit. I walked around and felt a cold wall, I grimaced and walked around till I had walked around the outside of the whole room. No doors, windows, lights or anything really. I walked into the centre of the room and stood there for a few seconds, something smelled weird. Metallic even. Walking forward I yelped when I tripped over something. I fell face first and my hands felt something wet, I strained her eyes to see through the dark but I got nothing.
Suddenly the lights turned on. And a scream ripped through the air, it took a second for me to realise it was me who was screaming. In the middle of the room was the whole team, everyone…dead. Blood stained my hands and knees and I watched with sick horror as it leaked from the pile of my dead friends. Their glassy eyes stared into nothing-ness and mouths partly open. I swore and backed away into the corner but I couldn't run from the eyes watching me. They can't be dead, they can't be dead.
I screamed again.
This was like my worst nightmare all over again.
The scene shifted and Lauren stood in front of me. Her hands outstretched in front of her, calling me. Her eyes held fear. Her green eyes glassy from unshed tears. Her eyes held betrayal, but I couldn't work out whom at. Was it me? Why would it be me? Then out of nowhere, in the middle of her chest blood began to seep through her clothes. She was still as I watched in horror at the scene. I tried to run out to help her but my body wouldn't move. Her flesh began to peel back leaving blood everywhere. Scratch marks appearing all over her body.
Then it came, my blood instantly turned cold. Her scream ricocheted around my head. All I could hear was her pained scream. Pain shot through my skull at the sound. But the pain that overpowered all the pain was the helplessness I felt. I couldn't save her. Why wouldn't my body move? Finally her screaming stopped and she crumpled to the ground. But when I looked down at my hands, they were covered in her blood. I was too scared to even scream. I was screaming inside. Help me, someone please!
I could only watch in horror.
The scene erased again, but this time it was Nathan. His eyes held the same betrayal as Lauren. His face didn't have the smile that was always on Nathan's face. I tried to shut my eyes so I wouldn't have to watch another one of my close friends be killed, but my eyes wouldn't obey.
I heard a deafening crack. His arm bent back in an unnatural way. I heard another two snaps and his legs buckled beneath him. This time I screamed. "NO STOP IT." I was able to close my eyes, but when I did. All I saw was Lauren's and Nathan's eyes staring at me with emotionless eyes. I could still hear the cracking of bones and my legs gave out as I fell to my knees.
All I could hear was my screams and crying.
