I can't believe I'm only realizing this now. My sister works for Star Tech. That's more dangerous than working at Roxxon .(comic book reference) But what was the suit about. Could anybody else know about my powers. I need to go back and get that suit it may hold the answers.
HOURS LATER
I'm at the alley again with my iPod in my pocket and my headphones, well, on my head obviously. I was was listening to "Immortals" by fall out boy. As soon as I got in, I run very silently jumping on stuff to get there faster (parkour) minutes later I arrived at the room. I grab the suit and turn to walk out. Then I saw my sister in front of me. She looks equally surprised at seeing me. Seconds after a Star Tech worker walks in with two burritos," hey, I got your burr...." "Uh looks like you both have explaining to do."AT HOME
Look I'm gonna be straight with you. I started working for Star Tech about a year ago. A month after you knew you had superpowers. And a week after I knew. They told me they knew that you had powers and that they needed me to work there so I could give them reports on how your powers are developing. The chemicals that fused with your DNA was to be used for making super soldiers but for some mysterious reason it only worked for you. All test subjects were horribly mutated. They think you have a lot of potential. An you are the key to saving the world. We needed you to know as little as possible so you wouldn't feel so much pressure. The suit you tried to steal was specially designed for you. The world needs you Cameron. What do ya say? (Imagine me like this) 😶
"I-I don't know." I say a little overwhelmed. "That's alright, you can take your time to think about it. But have this this in mind. There a reason why they where making soldiers. Evil forces are coming." 😓⬅ ME. She dramatically walks away. Man, that's some heavy stuff.LATER THAT DAY
My sister walks in she has the suit in her hand. I ask her why she brought it. She looked at me blankly and tells me to try it on. As I put it on I noticed the cheeky smile on her face. She hands me the helmet. I got scared that she was prank. I took the helmet and put my hand in to make sure there's no chocolate or ice water or something. There's nothing inside. I put it on and said thanks. I'll go put this in my closet. I try walking but for some reason I couldn't move. I looked down I saw myself flying in mid air. There was fire coming from my boots. It was so cool. Her face suddenly changed to one of business. " the first wave is here"
She said sternly. Suddenly I hear a big boom. I see hundreds of soldiers destroying the city. "So this is what you meant by evil forces." " Time to suit up."
