Valkyrie

Too Good to Be True

~~*~~

I thank God I'm alive. 

You're just too good to be true, 

Can't take my eyes off of you.

~~~*~~

It wasn't too often Stella was able to wake up at her first alarm, take her time choosing an outfit for school, or eat breakfast at a leisurely pace while reading on her phone and listening to music.

It was too good to be true in other words.

Stella knew her life by now and this was not normal, it was not what was to be expected. So, it was almost calming when the chiming of the emergency signal went off on her phone. The familiar buzz and flash of light caused a smile to pull at her lips. Twisting in her chair she was met with the grizzly face and shock of white hair of Cecil. The man grabbing her suit off the back of her couch and throwing it at her.

"Let's go."

~~*~~

The transport was always dizzying upon landing, it was something she figured one got over by using it as often as Cecil did. But she had to shake it off, The White House needed to be saved. Her costume had been placed on her via transport, her white cape billowing in the wind as she rose up next to Dark Wing among her team. Blue energy platforms covering the bottom of her boots.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late." Her voice overlapped with Red Rush's and the youngest of the group could hear War Woman's huff.

"Why is it always you two."

"Red Rush! Valkyrie! Get this guys out of here! Focus on evac! We can deal with these two once the area is clear!" Immortal called, rushing on of the Mauler Twins, swinging punches and dodging as he gave out orders.

"Aye Aye Captain!" The younger girl darted off, her blue energy coating her skin as she flew fast. Scooping up civilians left and right alongside Red Rush. Gently lowering the group of tourists she had in her clutches before an explosion sounded and she whipped around. Seeing Green Ghost rushing to a group of kids but not seeing the ones on the other side in just as much danger.

"No!" Valkyrie called and shot off. Bursting through the front lawn's fence and flying straight into the falling rubble.

"Valkyrie!" Green Ghost yelled, running to the pile of rubble once she had safely evacuated the kids. The rubble slowly started to shift, blue energy seeping through the cracks and lifting the stone and concrete. The younger Guardian huffing and puffing under a dome of energy, the civilians crouching by her feet watching in awe as the blocks moved, being thrown away. The dome disappearing when Valkyrie knew it was safe and she stumbled back. Gripping onto a larger piece of rubble behind her, waving off Green Ghost when she started to approach.

"Get them to safety, I got this." The woman covered in green hesitated but nodded, knowing the smile on Valkyrie's face meant she was okay, but the woman still worried about their youngest member in situations like this. They all did.

"Be safe."

"Do you even know me?" Valkyrie smirked, lifting off the ground and taking off. Seeing the red streak of Red Rush running around before Green Ghost disappears into the building, no doubt on President duty. Taking in the battlefield quickly Valkyrie's eyes landed on a tank flying through the air, seeing it's target she dove down. Blinked and you would have missed her, Red Rush would have been impressed.

She couldn't get to Dark wing and the woman he was trying to save before the Tank landed but she shot out energy as she landed, feet pounding against the pavement as she called for Dark Wing.
