Ruby

Testing, testing. 1 2 3.

I wake up to a smell,an awful smell. Like burn plastic and hot metal. I was guessing the windows were getting repaired. I look in the mirror and see my face it bright red. I groaned and looked in my closet for clothes. I see a cute red top and black leggings. I go to grab them but before I touch them I have them on. I rush over to my mirror and see I am dressed and my hair and makeup are done. Maybe this power had some pros. I trot tiredly down the stairs and fine all windows repaired and everyone waiting for me. "What's going on?" I ask. "We need to talk." My dad says. "We think it's time." I didn't know what he meant so I lifted my eyebrows. Dad sighed, "Will you join the avengers?" I place my hand over my mouth in shock. "You guys think I am ready?" I ask. The sun starts to shine through the window on my face and in my eyes so I cover them. "I will." Everyone claps and Bruce nods. "I need you down in the lab then." Dad commanded. We rush down and at first it is the two of us. The room had no glass and it seems like a testing room. "What's with the remodeling? It's a bit like a prison." I joke. "Before you go on missions and fight we need to know what your power is and you need to know how to control it." He replies. I understood, they didn't understand me so they don't trust me till they do. "Oh ok." I mumble. Bruce walks in and opens the door. "Are we ready to start?" He ask. "Yep." I say in a moody tone. "Ok Ruby this might hurt." He warns. He shocks my arm and as I get the pain my body uses the electricity to force power out and knock them both over. "Sorry!" I gasp. "It's fine." Dad groans. Bruce scribbles something on his paper. "Ok, so I have seen you can absorb power and uses it, you can run fast, your emotions release power and when in danger your power defends you." Bruce explained. "I can also get ready in less than 5 seconds. I did this morning." They both look at me confused. "I imagined my outfit,hair, and makeup, bang, I'm ready." I explained. Bruce writes it down. Then from behind I get a sense. I reach my arm out and grab a ball. "The heck?" I ask. "Checking awareness." My Dad says. "You didn't even see the ball yet you caught it and doing out I was throwing it." He questions. I look at the ball in my hand and drop it. Then before I know what is going on I teleported to another point I the room. Three bullets hit the wall behind where I was. "What the heck! You tried to shot me." I yell at Bruce. "Ruby, look at your hands." He warms. "I see bright energy all around them ready to be released. I calm myself and it goes away. "Look I knew you could get away, I just wanted to see how." He ensued. "Sure," I groaned. I saw a knife on the table and walk towards it and picked it up. "I wonder," I smile. "Ruby what are you doing?" My Dad asks. I knew they didn't want to help they wanted to use me or kill me. I know that I can end this now. I stab myself in the chest. "Ahhhhh," I scream. "Ruby!" My Dad yells. The knife didn't go in to deep, I pull it out. I don't feel anything. I pull up my shirt and there is nothing. "Guess I heal to." My Dad walks up and takes the knife. "Why the hell would you do that!" He yells. "What does it matter?" I say walking away.
