Frostbite - Eight

Beth ran over to see Peter face plant into the ground, "you know you could have told me you were jumping." She watched confused behind a tree as he started shooting random webs around. Her forehead met the palm of her hand, "idiot."

Then the sky rumbled as the man with the wings came in through the skies landing on one of the passing trucks. And then somehow he went through the truck, "let's go, Beth." She ran over jumping into his arms as he webbed them over onto the top of the truck. "Woah," there was some type of purple layer that let them see inside the truck. Peter gasped as he stared at this new tech, "cool. Looks like some kind of matter phase shifter."

As the man with the wings flew out of the truck, Peter grabbed his bag while Beth froze the man's feet. "Hey, big bird. This doesn't belong to you." The wings flew in by themselves, "oh god." He broke free of the ice and jumped back letting the wings connect to the something on his back. "Oh, god." They ducked as he tried to grab them, the winged man took the bag from them. 

Beth threw her hands out trying to freeze the wings engines but to no success. The vulture flew down trying to grab her but missed, Beth smiled turning around but was met with the burning pain as one of his wings made a deep cut on her cheekbone. She cried out in pain, blood falling down her cheek as she tried to stop it. 

"Beth, look out!" Peter called out to her but she couldn't move quick enough.  The winged man kicked Beth back, she fell inside of the truck some of the metal storage boxes fell on her legs. She heard Peter fall on top of the boxes, she watched him hit his head then, darkness. 


In the darkness, she saw herself, but it wasn't like her. Her eyes were a dark and soulless blue, and surrounding her was people screaming and Peter looking at her with fear. And her heart broke, "what the hell is happening?" She whispered to herself, her breathing picked up as she started to panic. "This isn't real, just wake up." She gripped onto her hair, "wake up!"
