THE GREEN GIRL

The pickup

Stacey watched as the flames dancing around Westminster palace, a trail of smoke hung in the air as the building burnt, Stacey stood glazing at the building in wonder and shock as she would never have guessed that it would have been destroyed so easily. “You’re in shock, aren’t you?” Ben’s voice chimed in, “I can tell that you are babe,” Stacey turned her head slowly toward the other mega human anger and hate were in her eyes as she did this, she then ran towards him her arms stretched out towards his neck. “why the fuck didn’t you do anything to save those people?” She asked in an angry voice, “why the fuck didn’t you let me go after that van?” Ben looked at her emotionless not bothering to smile or anything, “you would have been killed or worse haven’t you learnt anything that I told you?” He said as he gently removed both of her hands from around his neck, “these Mega Humans aren’t like Haven Stacey, they are cold blooded killers,” he then turned his back on her and looked toward the river Thames. 

“All my young life I had always thought that this part of the world was safe,” he then turned his head back towards her tears ran down from his eyes, “how wrong was I to think this?” Stacey then walked slowly up to him and put one of her hands across his waist, she then looked at him putting her head on his chest, “Ben I am sorry if I hurt you?” She said softly, “I think I just lost control that’s all?” Ben brushed her hair softly with one of his hands, “it’s OK babe,” he said in a soft voice, “I can understand how you are feeling at the moment.” As they both held each other there was a bright flash of blue light Ben picked his head up as he sensed a familiar mega human he then smiled as a blue colored mist swirled around the light and took on a form, that form was Mist, the blue skinned mega human was wearing a black colored top and trousers and on her head was a pair of sunglasses, she looked at Ben and Stacey giving them a puzzled look.

Stacey turned her head towards her, “Mist thank God what took you so long?” Mist looked at her then she turned her head towards the burning building in front Ben didn’t say anything but he could sense that she was troubled by what she saw, Mist turned her head towards them both her eyes were filled with both fear and rage, “what the fuck has happened here Ben?” Both Ben and Stacey looked up at her, “there has been an attack Laura,” Ben said his voice was soft, “we need to get out of here as soon as possible can you make another teleport with us?” 

Mist looked at him and smiled, “yeah I can make the trip back to Haven Ben but as soon as I do this will you tell me everything that has happened?” Ben nodded to her and grabbed hold of one of her hands seeing him doing this Stacey did the same, Misty then turned to them both and smiled, “hold on tight you two as this is going to be a long trip back to Florida for all of us.” As soon as she said this Stacey could feel a surge of energy swirling around the three of them then there was a blinding flash of blue light as all three of them teleported out of London and back to Haven no sooner had they done this there came a the sound of sirens as a squad of emergency vehicles turned up to the scene followed closely by the army.
