Quicksilver

Surprise

Peters POV

A million thoughts race through my head at the speed of light(Literally). Cali's dad is here? How is that possible? This is a safe place. Cali was supposed to be safe here. Will I be okay? WILL CALI BE OKAY? This is a facility protected by powerful mutants, how could a human get here?

My thoughts are interrupted by Eric clearing his throat. "To answer one of your questions Peter," He giggles evilly(Wait did I speak out loud? and I didn't know that it was actually possible to giggle evilly, you learn something new everyday.) "I am no longer a mere human, no no. me and the professor tried some thing peter, its time to test out my new powers. Cali, come.

At first Cali shook her head but the her feet started to move, she was walking slowly toward him her face strained and sweaty. "Cali no!" I shouted... ok shouted might be a little to heroic of a description, I tried to sound powerful but my voice cracked on the no and I stumbled a little when I tried to grab her arm. I reached for her but Eric simply chuckled maniacally, "stop" My limbs froze in place. As hard as I tried to move, I couldn't. Just like Cali couldn't stop. She walked over to him, horrerstruck.

Cali's POV

My hands are shaking. My dad with powers is not a good thing. Its like when they added letters in math, it might even be worse. I walk to him, every fiber of my being fighting it...ok maybe not ever fiber, my stomach is too busy telling me to eat pizza. I arrive next to my father. In a desperate attempt I turn my self invisible, it works for a second but then I'm back. "Not this time daughter" my father smiles giving me goosebumps. "We have some catching up to do."
