Where's My Super Hero?

Chapter 4(A Secret about Cass's Past)

Before soccer practice ends.
John's POV
"Alright everybody since you all did good today, we are going to cut practice short, but that does not mean get lazy. Now to the showers!!!"

We all ran to the showers and I took a quick shower and left before everyone else. ( Well I guess I might as well go to Cass's house. She won't mind if I'm an hour early.)

I drove to her address only to see a beautiful beach house right next to the sea. (Woah, that a nice house.) I walked to her door and almost rung the doorbell when I heard a dolphin noise.

I walked to the back and I saw Cass under water with a dolphin making dolphin noises. But as I walked closer, something went through my brain and I started hearing voices. {So Cass how's Aunt Zara doing?} {Oh she's doing wonderful, what about Kiki, Cece, Dede, and Marlo?} {Oh they're all fine Dede got a new job and......}[why are their so many voices in my head!?!] I said.

Then I saw Cass and the dolphin look around. {Um... Cass who was that I think someone after us.}{Nikki, I sense the presence of a human. Stay back} Then Nikki swam behind her as Cass charged up a water ball and threw it at me I tried to dodge but it changed course and made a spear ball. (I was trapped in a sphere ice ball.) Cass walked over to me with a ice-ball ready to kill me when she stopped in her tracks and went wide-eyed.

She absorbed her ice-ball and ran over to me. she un freezes me and let me fall to the ground. "Omg I'm so sorry I thought you were an intruder." "Yeah I'm fine but how did you do that....I mean there is only one person who can do all that and more.......wait a sec. only one person but she dead, unless...... YOUR OCEANIA!!!!!"

At first she looked shocked but then she changed her expression to normal. " Ok usually I would try to explain why I'm not Oceania, but I trust you, but you are not allowed to tell anyone understand.?" "Yeah I understand, but I just have one question. Why did you disappear? I mean what caused you to fake your own death?" Cass looked very sad and being a good friend I didn't force her to answer. "But you don't have to answer we can still go study and not talk about it."

"No, I need to get this off my chest. The reason why I faked my death was because of the responsibility of being the ultimate superhero, Someone getting in trouble every five seconds, ditching my friends to save someone, leaving my aunt when she needs me most just so I could stop some villain, never able to enjoy a normal teenage life, it's was so hard. I couldn't do it anymore, but that's what I told some of my friends, when really that's only half of it.........."

She fell to the ground crying and I tried to help her up. I picked her up, took her inside, and sat her down on the couch. "Look, if this is too hard for you, then you don't have to tell me......." "NO JUST LISTEN, PLEASE!!!!!" She immediately screamed. I sat down and listened to the rest of her story.

Cass's POV
"Ok, the day I disappeared, something happened. When I got their I saw the villain, Victor X, and my boyfriend, Michael. He apparently found out who I was he tried to kill me, but when he came to my door he saw my boyfriend waiting for me with flowers. He ended up kidnapping him. I was so determined to get him back, but during the fight he set the bomb off and blew up the city as you might know. Luckily we evacuated everyone. For a superhero like me the power of the ocean saved me and now you can't see that I ever got burned, but Michael is only human so..... he burned to ashes or at least that's what I think happen. They never found his body. Before he died he told me something, his last word was <Trust.>"

At that point I broke down crying. After two years of wandering what he meant I finally figured it out. <Trust> was the one thing that we had to work on or at least I needed to work on. (He was telling me to trust your good friends and family.)

At this point, John was holding me. This is so embarrassing, to be crying in front of another boy, made me feel weak. That's why I strived to be the best, to prove that girls aren't just emotional hot messes.

After a while, I stopped crying and wiped up my tears. "Hey John, I'm sorry for wasting your time. You were suppose to learn math today, but instead you had to watch me cry, so to make it up if you still want we can study and don't worry I'm fine now." He smiled at me and nodded. for the next three hours we studied math.

Author's note
Hey fellow readers, I realized that my author's note in the last chapter is weird so never fear, I will fix it. Also this is kind of the part two of chapter 3 cause I had to split it into two chapters cause then chapter three would be waaaaaaaaay too long. So anyway thank you for reading this far into it if you had and the next chapter will be about Gwen, Malcolm, and a new character. Catch you in a while crocodiles.
