Thread: Not So Super  (Kassy & Alexandar)

As Kassie descended the stairs and opened the door to her apartment she walked into the sight of Xel Rethu and two of his beefiest private contract security officers standing just behind him. The man was simply sitting in Kassys favorite chair without a care in the world. Kassy Kaine, nice to finally meet you! I am sorry, but I had to let myself in. Id like to have a conversation with you, Can you contain yourself and speak with me civility or do I need to subdue you? The infamous Supervillain asked, holding up a small black box. Wha I dont know what youre talking about! Is this a break in? Kassy tried to pretend that the exquisitely dressed megalomaniac wasnt somebody she already knew. Yes he was sitting in her apartment but that didnt mean he knew who she actually was. She fought the instinct to take a defensively heroic pose and managed to only look like a scared young woman living on her own for the first time. Im not going to play stupid...I would hope that you dont perceive me as such. As I am the worlds 3rd most intelligent human being and even that factor is currently in question... He said with a smug smile on his manicured black bearded face. ...That wheelchair bound cripple from England doesnt stand a fucking chance the next time we play chess. So Im just gonna put it out there You are... Ultragirl! Daughter of Captain Ultra and if you so much as make a single hostile move toward me I WILLl put you down ...LIKE...A...FUCKIN... DOG! Xel said calmly,only raising his voice at the end of his statement, and rising up the small black box he had in his hand. OK, you pegged me, and YEAH Im not as strong as my father or my mother...YET! But Im no pushover! Im about to go super speed and wipe YOU and your HARD BOYS out in the frickin blink of an eye if you dont get the hell out of my apartment,THIS INSTANCE! Kassy yelled with authority, finally dropping the facade and showing her true colors.Her hands coming up defensively like a trained mixed martial artist. Youre correct, if not for the simple truth that your father lied to you... as he did us all. His story to the world was that his parents shot him off a world that was self-destructing in order to save the best of his peoples. But the truth Ive found is that he didnt ever leave his home planet.... Xel started to explain but Ultragirl interrupted by springing forward. To her example, she made it almost all the way across the room before Xel was able to press the button on the black device.. Ultragirl froze, her legs locked and she fell straight onto her face, if not for her near invulnerability she would have got carpet burn on the chin. Suddenly every muscle in her impossibly strong body locked into place, she was literally a fallen statue. NO! You misunderstand.By... I know the truth, I mean I actually know the truth! The TRUTH that Captain Ultra wasnt ever from another planet, he was always from ours.Just another DIMENSION! In his home dimension the world was populated by as many superhumans as this world is populated with normal civilians. Practically everyone thought they were special, and because of this their version of reality was constantly in a state of chaos and revolution. Soon that world destroyed itself and only Captain Ultra escaped. He came here, to our version of this world and started a new evolution. He arrived in the years following WWII and since then weve had an insurgence of super powered humans and now our world may suffer the same fate as his. Havent you ever wondered why her felt the need to retire? Yes he may wear grey hair around his temples but he his far from physically incapable. The truth is that he knows that his very presence here may have brought forth the destruction of this universe, and that realization is far too late.BUT... Hes already to sealed the deal as it was, with you.... Xel sat pontificating, his fingers tapping together menacingly. Kassy tried to fight against the force that was locking every muscle in her seize up and stop her will. AAAAaaaaaaarrrggh! She screamed out in frustration. ...Its the same story our own Holy texts warned us against. All the good books say when the angels and devils come to wage war, man shall fall.... And the saddest truth is that your father probably knew that, but he was a refugee and they dont typically look gift horses in the mouth. He CAME here even though he knew that his presence might bring forth the end of the this world, and then he actually had the nerve to propagate your species. Fuuuucck US! He said, and he took on a mate, the Greek Goddess of the Hunt personified, Artemis...your mother! Xel sat back and laughed as Ultragirl struggled fruitlessly against the power of the artifact he held in his hand. nooooo...NO! I am the daughter of an alien from a distant planet! He met my mother and married a good woman and I am their child! Ultragirl protested but was still unable to resist. Ha! I thought the same for years, I expended countless resources scouring the known universe for a single weakness to his ultimate powers. He had a truly grand deception...Until his first psychotic break that was.Then his handlers recommended he retire, sure they could cover up the abomination hed created, but in turn hed step down.It was only then I realized that his insanity was a direct result from being an occupant in an altered dimension. It took a matter of a decade or so to catch on...And here I am now, talking to you, holding the singular device that completely control your dimensions beings, and Im wondering what I should do with it? I should probably tell you to kill yourself.right? Xel asked with a cruel smile and Ultragirls hand came up to her own throat, poised to rip it out. No! I think something a little more planned out might be an option. How about this You fly down to the docks and interrupt a weapons deal. There is an enhanced human I WANT TAKEN OUT! Your father would have never let this sort of deal go down, but since his retirement hes allowed Infinity City to slip back into the depths of criminal influence.I used to get a cut off everything that went down there, but now I find myself excluded. Show your new subservience to me or Ill have you put down now! Xel commanded. Ultragirl rose slowly, still in her civilian clothes, her eyes mad with rage. Yes master! She growled angrily. She took off toward the docks at full speed, so fast she was almost unperceivable by normal eyes. God help whoever was located on top of the storage container.
