Not Your Average

Chapter 3

I walked around a bit to see what everyone else was doing. I decided to practice on a punching bag. Since I used to be an officer I knew how to kick box and I knew some mixed martial arts from when I was a kid. I threw a punch at the bag like normal. Nothing happened. How am I supposed to learn what to do if I don't know how to activate it? I decided to stop with the punching bag. I walked over to one of the practicing dummies. I just stood. What am I supposed to do?

"Are you going to do anything?" said Tony. They were all watching me now. I was embarrassed.

"Come on? With that skin it must have something to do with metal!" He said again.

"Not necessarily." Natasha said.

"What should I try?" I asked.

"Why don't you try to fight us?" Clint said.

"Sure."

first I fought Clint. He could tell that I had fighting skills, but he tried to help me find my powers. It didn't work well. We both just stopped fighting.

"Maybe you have no powers. Maybe you just have fighting skills."

"Maybe, let me get a drink." I responded. I walked over to get a cup. without thinking I controlled the pitcher of water to come to me. I poured myself a cup of water and turned around. Everyone was staring at me.

"What?"

"You just made the metal pitcher of water come to you." Dr. Banner said.

"I did?" Just then I made it move again. It worked!! Then I tried to make one of the practicing dummies move, but for some reason it didn't work.

"It must only be metal" Thor stated.

I looked at my hands. I tried to make something happen. Right then my hands turned to weapons.

"Cool!" I said.
