10. Strikers

"What?" Joe says, breaking the silence.

Hiccup and I just sit here, staring at the two girls in front of us from some secret organisation who just said we were some rare creatures called Shields.

My mind....BOOM!

"Shields" says Lumina "are creatures that have the ability to...stop Strikers from...striking. They are Shields, Literally."

"But how am I one?" asks Hiccup, confused,

Sunny smiles softly. "I don't know. If I did...we would tell you. It's nothing genetic, you are...you are given these powers at random. No one chose you; it's not a disease."

"But I'm a Powerist" I hiss. "Power is in the name. I can't also be...this...this Shield thing."

Lumina laughs. "Oh, Shields aren't a 'particular' type of creature. A vampire could be a Shield, or a mermaid."

"Why aren't I a shield?" asks Joe.

"It's not genetic" sighs Sunny.

"But Hiccups a shield!" she hisses.

Lumina groans. "Okay. Shut up and let me speak for two seconds, okay?"

We nod.

"Eight Strikers; Red, Blue, Yellow, Pink, Green, Purple, black and white. They have a devils tail, and their eyes are fully back, except the iris" she says, showing us a picture of some. (A/N: The pic above^^)

"Why bring us is?" I ask. "What's the point?!"

Lumina hardens her gaze. "The 'point'? Are you serious? There are HEAPS of points."

"There is?" whispers Sunny.

Lumina looks at her unimpressed, and Sunny just shrugs. "I wasn't at the last meeting."

"Anyway" says Hiccup. "Back to what Fate said. Is there a particular reason to why you brought us here?"

"No" says Sunny as Lumina says "Yes."

"Oh Gish" I say, hitting my head on the table. "One...at a frikin...time..."

"There is" says Lumina. "There is a reason why. We have reason to believe that S.W.O.R.D is after you Fate."

I groan. "Everyone is after me."

"Our sources from within S.W.O.R.D have said that an agent has been keeping tabs on you, as have we."

"So what?" I spit. "I can't even get changed without some pervert spy watching me?"

Joe snickers and Hiccup snorts, but they quieten down when they see the serious faces on Lumina and Sunny.

"Okay. Why is it a problem?"

Sunny laughs. "Seriously? You don't care that a deadly organisation is keeping an eye on you?"

"No, not really" I say, leaning back in my chair. "I mean...I've been hunted down, almost killed, being struck by lightning, and had my friends been taken and tortured because of me. This...this doesn't bother me...as much."

Lumina then stands, walking over to me and then pushing my head forward so my chin rests on my chest. "Hey! What are you--"

"She has it" sighs Lumina. "The mark."

Sunny groans. "That's great isn't it?"

"What do I have?!" I squeal.

"They need weapons" sighs Lumina, letting go of my head and walking towards the doors.

"Come with me of you guys want them."

Sunny stands, following Lumina. Joe, Hiccup and I share a look before jumping up and following them.
