The Wild Ones

The Andy Effect

When I get to the polestar for breakfast, I’m surprised to see we have fresh fruit. That’s one benefit of the raid. Unfortunately it’s not the only product as word seems to have gotten around about my magical healing abilities, and If I didn’t know any better I would have thought I had missed a few things.

“As soon as she saw Skylar was hurt she went rigid. She was floating in the air five feet above the ground,”

“-She started chanting this weird mantra. It was in latin I think!”

“-Her eyes turned white,”

“And beams of this weird green fire shot out of her hands, right towards Skylar!”

“-Skylar started flying too!”

“And then Bam! She was fine! Just like that!”

“I hear Andy carried her home,”

“I heard it was Ashley,” Swoons the girl across from her.

“Lucky,” Spits a purple haired guy jealously.

I shake my head at my bowl of strawberry porridge. Not really. Last time I checked, being a pariah because of a weird anomaly that leaves you in the hospital with no clue what it’s doing to you wasn’t considered lucky. At least people are so focused on talking about the story and pretending they aren’t gawking at me that no one actually asks me drag the story up again because after staying up so late practicing my knife throwing skills, (and my knack for causing awkward or near-death experiences,) with Andy, It feels like my eyelids are made of lead. I want nothing more than to take my up to my dorm and crawl under the blankets until my mind stops spinning. But that’s not how the Wild Ones roll.

Despite the hood I pulled over my face, it’s impossible not to be recognized as I search the polestar for an empty table. I receive smiles from strangers and pats on the back that turn my face red. It’s not an altogether unpleasant experience though, so by the time I slide into an empty seat next to Inna, my sulky mood is somewhat diminished.

“Are you okay?” She asks immediately, large concerned eyes scanning my face.

“Yeah. I’m like, seventy percent sure I’m fine.”

“Good.” She shovels a spoonful of porridge into her mouth and smiles, cheeks full. I suppose that these days seventy percent fine is about the best anyone can hope for.

“So where did you disappear to last night?” Asks Lauren.

“Huh?” I ask.

“When I went to check on you in the hospital, you weren’t in your bed. You didn’t sneak off to rendezvous with a special someone, did you?” She jokes, batting her eyelashes dramatically. Lauren and Inna stare at my quickly reddening face. “Oh my god, you did.”

“No! I just kind of ran into Andy when I was in the training room.” I look down at my bowl of porridge and stir it, hoping they’ll leave the subject alone. Fat chance. When the silence stretches on I glance back up to find them both staring at me. “Fine.” I give them a summarised version of events, starting with my hiding behind the sparring mats and ending with agreeing to meet Andy later today for healing/fighting lessons. I omit the part about the elbow nudge because I probably read too much into that and what does an elbow nudge mean anyways? Lauren quietly squeals her excitement and Inna winks at me when I mention meeting Andy, and no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to make them understand that it’s not a social call. I’m teaching him how to heal, he’s teaching me how to fight. Even trade. Yessiree. That’s it.

“She has a crush on him,” Inna tells Lauren. I glower at her

“You weren’t supposed to say anything!”

“Don’t worry Raven,” Says Lauren, “It’s you and every other single girl in the legion. We call it ‘The Andy Effect.’”



Notes

I'm so sorry, I'm lame I know. There's a legitimate reason and that is that my computer melted when it was plugged in and we had an unprotected power surge. Yeah.... It's been a great few months.

Anyhoo, I've finally replaced my device and I have a bunch of material planned for this story and I hope it will all be up in the next few days. The song of the day is "Amsterdam" by Nothing But Thieves. (check them out, they're good.) Your question of the day is:
If the alter egos of superheros Iron Man, The Silver Surfer, Wonder Woman and The (original) Flash (aka Tony Stark, Norrin Rad, Diana of Themyscyira and Wally West) were pitted against each other in an epic battle where none of them had any of their respective suits or powers, who would win the fight and who would be the most beat up?

I think Wonder Woman would win because she's the only one who has intense battle training without her powers and Iron Man would get the snark beat out of him. Your thoughts?

(P.S. HAVE YOU HEARD THAT UMBRELLA ACADEMY IS GOING TO BE A NETFLIX SERIES??? *SQUEALS*

Oooh, good idea!

Glad to see you back ! It's been awhile since I've been in school , so I'm not sure what the consequences are for writing fanfics in class , but I've started carrying a notepad in my pocket at work to scribble down ideas on , and I've been actually writing on one of my stories during breaks . You gotta grab the ideas when they come , or they might escape . I hate when that happens .
