mischief and sarcasm

new york new you

stiles POV

finally. new york. i hadn't slept since i was so kindly knocked out by the agent. there were noticeable bags under my eyes and i looked like a total mess.

i pulled up outside a small hotel. booking for a few nights. i wrote down scott mccall to avoid anyone being alerted and hurried to my room.

i stepped into the elevator and breathed out a sigh of relief. home free i guess, my small victory did not last long as two women stepped on. i hid my face slightly and picked at my nails.
wishing i could be invisible. like that would be unnecessarily helpful right now.

the women didn't even glance at me, i tried to get a good look at their faces but couldn't so resorted to staring at the backs of their heads.

one was a dark almost red coloured hair, the other bright orange like a fire flame.
they began talking in hushed whispers.

"he isn't even that much of a threat"

"he has weapons"

"small gadgets"

"gadgets we don't understand and how many more has he got?"

"i'm just saying-"

"he's a kid not a villain yeah yeah tonys got the same view"

"so can't we back off?"

"just keep eyepatch happy"

"how come he didn't send agents out to patrol. why do we have to get stuck at a hotel"

"if i knew i would tell you"

"he's probably halfway to england by now, only and idiot would keep going to here"

"probably"

the two settled into silence. i'm pretty sure they are talking about me. like there's too many coincidences but then again... two random people happen to be in an elevator with me talking about me... unlikely. i'm still surprised they haven't spotted me. it's like im

invisible

'yes shush'

you are.

i swear they heart stopped for a moment, this fucking spirit was lying through their teeth. if i had super powers i think i would know. and yet. i doubted myself.

cussing out void i took a step forward. i waved my hand over one of the girls faces. no reaction.
i moved so i could see them properly and of course they had to be two avengers. i am in an elevator with two avengers who could probably snap my neck with their pinky.

in front of me was wanda and natasha, just my luck. although... as bad as this situation could be this could actually work in my favour, if i play my cards right.

trying not to make too much noise i reached into natashas leather jacket pocket and silently pulled out her wallet. i found a pen in my backpack and scribbled an I.O.U note on a scrap piece of paper. signing off with stiles. i took the card and any money out her wallet and replaced it with my note, snickering silently.

it's stupid to be so obvious but i bet the look on their faces when they realise natasha was pickpocketed, scratch that, pickpocketed by the guy they were after, would be priceless. actually, i would love to see that, i reached for my tiny camera, the size of a grain of salt and as lightly as possible pressed it onto the back of her earring. admittedly i probably wouldn't be able to see too much but i could hear it. which means i could also get away if needs be.

i must have pressed a little too hard cause she almost grabbed my arm. i yanked it away quickly, those reflexes were definitely not human- her hair lifted slightly as i moved. i pushed myself into the corner again. begging her not to start randomly kicking the air.

"what's wrong?"

"i feel like we're being watched"

"by who? we're in a hotel elevator"

"yeah but something just touched me"

"nat you're kinda scaring me.."

"just forget it"

their floor came up and they stepped out. the doors closed again, leaving me alone with natasha a.k.a black widows money. suddenly this felt like a stupid idea.

'void'

what

'be honest, do i have super powers?'

you have my powers

'yeah but u were just evil. last time I checked you couldn't turn invisible dumbass'

i am a trickster spirit. i did turn invisible, obviously no one saw. dumbass

I smiled a little despite myself.

' any other tricks up your sleeve?'

other powers

now I was interested, I am still pretty shocked I had one power let alone more.

'such as?'

sleep first. Like I said before you can unlock your full power if you sleep.

'i'll think about it'

i opened the wad of cash, pocketing the card, a small tracking device was hidden in the folds. i smashed it. in another money fold sat a small piece of paper with random numbers on it. might be fun to prank call some of these guys. even if they are definitely dangerous.

i stuffed the money into my bag and exited the elevator,  then headed to my room, 1408
what fun.

i threw my backpack across the room. suddenly remembering patrick was in that. shit! i jumped to grab it and found myself waiting for a few moments for the bag to reach my hand.

it was like time slowed down. can i manipulate time? nah pretty sure that's just a part of quick reactions i now have. i opened my bag and gently picked up patrick who looked more than a little pissed over that fiasco.

apologising profusely i set him down on the bed. then i scanned the room for a tv. thank god there is one.

grabbing a small tool box from out my bag i began to rewire the tv, this way i could see through the little camera.

once that was set up i sat back on my bed and listened.

hehe another chapter i have yet to actually upload.
