The Gifted Wild Lightning (John Proudstar aka Thunderbird x Reader)

Time to Light Up

*Note*: so common question is how old Alex is, will my dear party people she is 23. 

 I stayed behind as John and Marcos went to get Lauren and her family, I pulled a thing of headphones out and attached them to my phone. I turned the volume up while leaning back in the chair I was sitting in, Sonya handed me a bottle of water as we waited. After a while I looked over to see Sonya on the phone, first she ran over to Clarice and soon they ran off. 

I quickly sat up and followed behind them, Clarice was standing in the middle of the road trying to open a portal. I watched as she opened the portal waiting for an SUV to some through, after a few more minutes the SUV disappeared. I quickly turned around and headed back towards Headquarters, after a while everyone walked in and it seemed like John was upset about something. 

 "You ok?" I asked while following after him.

He looked over at me for a moment and sighed, "yeah nothing for you to worry about." he placed a hand on my shoulder. "You should get get some rest." he gave me a half smile.

"Alright." I turned around and headed to the bed they gave me.

The next day John and Marcos had everyone gather around, talking about trying to get back some woman name Lorna. After a few of us said we where in to help break her and another dude out everyone went there way. 

"Here."

I looked up to see John holding out a mug of coffee out to me, "thanks?" I took it from him taking in the amazing smell.

"You don't have to help you know?" he sat down across from me.

"You guys saved me, if these people are important to you guys then I want to help." I took a sip of the coffee.

"Hope I made it right for you." he smiled.

"Yeah, tastes amazing." I smiled back at him.

A few days later after coming up with a plan to stop a prison bus and to get Lorna and Reed back, we were all getting ready to go. I sat in the SUV with John and Marcos in the front seats, I looked down at my hands opening and closing them. I could feel my powers flowing through my body trying to find a way out.

"You alright?" I looked up to see Marcos looking at me.

"Yeah,ready to do this." I smiled at him.

"You just keep your head down." 

"Trust me, you don't have to worry. I got this." I smiled as I pulled up the hood that was attached to the vest.

As everyone climbed in the SUV and the car we made our way to the back rode that the convoy was going to drive down, everyone got into position waiting for the convoy to show up. I was in an ally way with Sonya, Marcos and some other dude that I just meet. 

"I have to tell you guys something." Marcos said while looking at us, "if things go sideways--"

"We know we split up and meet at the rally point." 

"No just let me finish, if things go sideways you guys get out of here. I'm not leaving." 

"Wait, what? We discussed this." Sonya said.

"I know, but I'm not leaving here without Lorna."

  "Here they come." I sang as we knelt down behind a car blocking the ally way.  

"Why isn't it stopping?" Sonya asked.

"You guys need to get out of here now." Marcos said as the bus finally stopped in front of us.
