Superhero Academy (COMPLETE)

Chapter 7

"Emily."

"Emily."

"Emmmiilllyyy!"

"Emily!!"

"EM!"

"..."

"EMILY MARIE LANE!"

I looked up.

"Wha?" I asked.

"You've been staring at the floor for the past hour as we tried to get you out of some damn trance!" Adria said.

"Sorry... I was just thinking about my brother and wondering if he's alright." I said. "I didn't mean to ignore you guys."

"You're starting to sound like my old dance partner." Tabitha snorted.
That made me giggle.

"I remember him! I still can believe they forced us to take ballroom dancing!" Toni whined.
I stood up.

"If you're just going to talk about pointless things then I'm going to look for my brother myself." I said.

They all stared at me like I was crazy.
"You can't do that! It's too dangerous!" Adria exclaimed.

"So what? I'm not strong enough?" I asked.

"Emily... You could get hurt!" Toni said.

I walked to my room and suited up. I don't care what they say. I can do whatever the hell I want!

||Adria's POV||
"Uuughhhhh! That girl is so hard headed!" I yelled.

"Calm down Adria. She's just blowing off some steam." Tabitha said.
I took a deep breath.

"You're right. I think I need some fresh air myself." I said.

Toni and Tabitha nodded and let me walk away.

I just don't want my best friend to get hurt. That man is evil. He can destroy anything and anyone he wants. I just hope she's okay.

||Emily's POV||
I walked out of the academy and sat on a bench.
Where the hell am I supposed to go? I don't know where-

"I got it!" I jumped up and yelled causing some wandering students to stare.

I ran and took off my clothes like my dad used to do when he was going into his superhero mode and revealed my uniform. I left my clothes behind and flew off to where I'm pretty sure my brother is.

Once I got there, I felt unsure, but no one can stop me from bringing my brother home.

I walked into the dark cave which was decorated very nicely. I quietly tiptoed around to search for anything that will lead me to Mark. Then from the distance I heard something.

"How long do you think we can hide with mini superman over here?" Some guy with a heavy New York accent snorted.

"Not sure, but we need to hurry up with the plan before someone finds us." Another man said.
Too late I thought.

I managed to creep past them and then I snuck into a room. I walked over to a table with something on it. I pulled the cover off to reveal my precious brother as limp as a corpse.

I squeezed my eyes shut so the tears wouldn't come out.
When I opened them again, I found myself staring at a shadow.

Someone's here and if I don't act fast, I won't be able to save my brother. I decided to hide under the table Mark was laying on.

What's wrong with you! You're a damn superhero and you're afraid of someone who doesn't have powers like you?!

I quickly stood up and followed the shadow.

"Who are you?" I yelled.

Nothing. Just complete silence.

"I know someone is here! Come at me! I dare you!" I yelled.

I heard footsteps from behind me and I spun around.

"Look at who we have here." Lex said.

"Shut up you old baboon and tell me what you did to my brother!" I yelled.

"Now there's not need for us to raise our voices is there?" He asked.

"Yes there is. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Give me my brother and I'll leave you be or fight me and end on with blood on your face!"

He let out an evil shrill.

"You're a funny one."

"I pushed past him and walked back to Mark."

"What did you do to him?" I asked pointing to the lifeless body on the table.

"Relax. I just put him to sleep. I was going to run a few experiments, but then you..."

I didn't give him a chance to finish. I just swung my fist at him causing him to fall to the floor.

He got back up and smirked.

"So you want to play it this way?"

He grabbed a gun from a nearby shelf.

"You see, this is filled with kryptonite bullets. The ones you caught me messing with. If I use this on you, you'll die." He said.

My breathing became heavy.

Well... I guess I have to risk my life...

I ran up to him and fought him for the gun. I was dodging bullets. I almost got hit by some.

When I finally got the gun, I threw it on the ground, making it smash into a million pieces.

"Fine. You win this time. I'm not finished with you yet though." He said and unstrapped Mark from the table, practically throwing him at me.

What does he mean "not yet?"
