Chapter
6: The Tri-War
NEW SUPER-VILLAIN GANG RUNS INTO NEW YORK! the newspaper headlines screamed. “At least they’ve got
one thing right.” grumbled Jasper as he put on his super suit. Caleb, Maya, and
Jaden were doing the same. “You guys ready?” Jasper inquired.
“You
betcha.” Jaden said.
“You
know the plan--skydive bomb ‘em and make battle and beat them. Got it?” Jasper
ran through instructions one more time.
“Sure
thing, slugger.” Caleb saluted. Maya snickered.
“Let’s
go to war.” Jaden cracked his knuckles at the end of his statement. Everyone
laughed.
The
four of them crouched on the Empire State Building. They watched the cars race
back in forth along the streets below. They were in the middle of a giant
thunderstorm. They were all soaked to the bone. “We’ve been here three hours!
When’ll they come?” complained Jaden for the thousandth time.
Caleb was fed up
with it. “Just shut up!” he snarled.
“You shut up first!” Jaden snarled back.
“Both of you shut up!” Maya snarled. “All of you shut your mouths all ready! They’ll hear you
a mile away!”
Jasper snarled at everybody. They had all started snarling at each
other when….
“Were you planning to ambush us? Ha!” A bolt of lightning struck
the lightning rod on the Empire State Building. A blonde girl about fifteen
materialized out of it.
“You must be Electra.” Maya said dryly.
“You got that
right!” Electra smiled proudly. “But enough of the Hero/Villain banter. Let’s
fight!”
The building shook. A fifteen foot black Hulk with blue hair and
nostrils the size of rice cookers leapt onto the building. “Hey guys!” he said
in a rumbling voice. He had a creepy smile. Howls filled the air. A boy around
Electra’s age with brown hair sat on the steps of the State Building. Literally
a hundred wolves prowled around him.
“Bro, it’s Alpha!” Jaden said.
A black
haired, Chinese girl appeared out of a strong gust of wind.
“Windwhip!” Jasper
muttered.
A
red-headed girl jumped up on to the building from a geyser of mud. “It’s Terra,
you guys!” Maya called out
Frankenstein
made the first move. He swung a giant fist at Jasper, who ducked. Soon the air
was filled with blasted of fire, electricity, sonic booms, howls of wolves, and
squeaks of rats. Then Victoria came out of nowhere and slammed into
Frankenstein, and tried to throw him off the building telepathically.
Frankenstein held firm. He picked up a dazed Victoria and threw her to kingdom
come. Then missiles, bullets, exploding cannon balls, and energy blasts filled
the air. A flying robot speeded toward them. Drone had made his first appearance.
Then Valor came in and punched Caleb in the face. But then...Maya was shooting at Drone, and
the sounds of battle were so loud that she couldn’t hear Frankenstein lumbering
up behind her. Frankenstein punched her so hard that she flew one thousand yards
and smashed threw a window.
Then
Jaden screamed.
