SpiderMan's Daughter Book Three

Uhhhh..?

Rachel POV
The guy lended me a hand.

"Uh you're up against an entire superhero army and you want to shake my hand?" I laughed. He held out his hand more vigorously. I shook his hand firmly but cautiously.

"We are here for a mutant more powerful than you are capable of holding." He told me though his metal helmet. "We seem to be holding them pretty well for right now, thanks." I snapped, sizing up his little army.

"You don't understand. This is not a request. You are to hand her over immediately." He barked through his helmet.

"Aye mate. I'm sure you're a lovely person, but you're not getting anyone." I heard The Hooktress say. She stepped up beside me. "Who is this? The pirate queen?" He laughed. "You're heroes?" His army laughed with him.

In seconds The Hooktress had ripped off his helmet and was at his throat with her hook. "No one said I was a hero, mate." She snarled in his face.

"Alright hooky, calm down." I laughed, grabbing her shoulder. She pulled back, but grabbed his helmet with her hook. "Interesting." She said, looking at it. She pitched it off to the side.

He had the head of a lizard but the body of seemingly a human under his suit. "Aye take that back. You're an ugly creature aren't ya?" She taunted.

"You better keep your friend on a leash or more than just her hook will be bloody." He snarled, showing rows of sharp teeth.

"Hey, hey calm down. No need to fight fly breath." I jabbed. "What mutant are you talking about?" I asked.

"She has the capability to turn into a dragon. Something that no one in this world is able to do." He said quickly.

"Hate to break it to ya but.""shush." I shushed The Hooktress. "As The Hooktress was saying we have no one here that has that capability. Honest." I shrugged.

"We will leave for now. But if we find out you are lying, someone will die." He grinned at me, somehow showing all his teeth.

"Your name Bruce? You kinda look like that annoying shark from Finding Nemo." I laughed. "Good day." He snarled, giving me his hand to shake again.

I watched all of them leave and turned to The Hooktress, Evergreen, and SilverMist.

"Well that was quite the show." I laughed. "Who do you think they were talking about?" Kimberly asked me. "I don't know..."
