THE GREEN GIRL

A secret revealed

Stacey sat on chair in Ben rooms the air was thick with the smell of tobacco in her hand she was holding a photo album, inside were photos of both Ben and her, “why did I let him go off like that?” She asked herself out loud, “why didn’t I say something to him?” She then got up out of the chair and put the album down letting it drop to the floor, she then walked over to the balcony and looked out over at the cityscape, “why couldn’t I have been stronger?”

 She asked herself in a low voice, as she looked out there came a loud knocking at the door, “hey, Stacey are you in here?” Asked a familiar voice, “the doors open Greena come on in!” Stacey shouted back, the door nearly fell from its hinges as Greena walked on it, here body was ribbed with muscle, she looked like Stacey apart from two differences her green skin was darker and she had flaming red hair, she was wearing a red and yellow jumpsuit a pair of fingerless gloves covered both of her hands and on her face she wore a pair of red tinted sunglasses, as she entered the room she looked at Stacey smiling, “are you OK Stacey?” She asked as she walked close to her, the smile faded from her dark green lips, she looked at the large female mega human tears were in both of her eyes, “no, I am not feeling to good Greena,” she said her head lowered, “why? What’s wrong?” 

Greena asked in a warm voice, Stacey looked up at her, “can you keep a secret?” She asked her voice was quiet, “sure I can,” Greena said as she put one of her large hands on Stacey’s shoulders, she looked at her wiping the tears away from her face, “Ben is in trouble again,” “trouble?” Greena asked in a confused voice, “what sort of trouble?” She looked at the Green Girl as she removed the sunglasses from her face, “you heard of the Outcasts right?” Greena’s eyes widen in surprise, “yeah Mist told me about them, they are like us aren’t they?” 

Stacey looked at her smiling gently, “in a way they are,” she said as she put a hand on the other woman’s shoulder, “but they want only Mega Humans to rule the world not humans,” Greena looked at her, “I am sorry Stacey, but what does this have to do with Ben?” “Everything Greena,” Stacey shouted loudly, “Ben knows the Outcasts leader, that where he’s gone to face him!” She then covered her eyes and started crying, Greena then walked over to her and put one of her arms around her waist, “it that true Stacey? Has he really gone?” 

Stacey removed her hand from her eyes and looked up at Greena, “yes, he has,” she said as she wept, “he told me that he had a feeling where the Outcasts would strike next.” She then looked at Greena, “you must think that I am weak?” She asked as she wiped her face with her hand, “no, no I don’t Stacey,” Greena said, “I know what some men are like believe me when I say this,” she then gently helped her up to her feet, “thanks,” Stacey said as she faintly smiled at the other woman, Greena smiled back, “look I know that Ben wouldn’t want you to do this? But, I think that you should tell Frostbite and the others don’t you?” Before Stacey could answer her Mist came running, “oh, Mist just one of the people that I wanted to talk to Stacey wanted a word with Frostbit-.” Before Greena could say anything Mist cut her off, “that will have to wait for the moment Greena as Frostbite has called a meeting,” “a meeting?” Stacey asked puzzled, “yeah I haven’t really got time to explain but it looks like there’s been another attack? Frostbite will explain everything to you in due course come on!” She shouted as the three of them ran out of the room and down stairs towards the common room.
