Chapter 26 - 26 Wondergirl, Supergirl and Aquagirl (2/2)
”I don't know who you are, but you're messing with the wrong person!”.
*Click*.
All the eighteen and nineteen year olds froze when they say the figure from across the street pull out a small handheld weapon, aimed straight at them. With their numbers, they could easily outnumber the man, but none of them were willing to take a bullet for some guy that paid them, even if it was the mayor's son.
The figure spoke.
”I will not spread this picture around if you leave these girls alone. If you back away now, I promise things won't get messy”.
In the face of a gun, all normal humans had a fighting chance against each other. Physical fitness meant nothing when you could snipe your enemy from a hundred meters or even further. These teenage boys, even if they did have training in actual combat, did not stand a chance against one man with a gun.
Especially if he knew how to use it.
The leader of the group frowned but nodded instantly. Him and the rest of his posse left the street, and the figure gestured to Kara, Mareena and Cassie to come towards the light, where they saw his face properly.
Cassie and Mareena frowned slightly at the threat this other man had used, but refrained themselves from saying anything.... but Kara....
”Why'd did you threaten to kill them? We could've taken care of it ourselves”.
The figure in front of them raised an eyebrow at the sixteen year olds words, and smirked cheekily at the younger girl.
”And how would have you done that? Over a dozen grown men against three teenage girls? Unless you are metas than I don't see that ending well”.
Kara was a little taken back at the response, but gestured to the gun in the man's hands.
”But did you have to use a gun? Just threatening to call the police would've been enough”.
”That's the mayor's son. He has the police in his back pocket, don't think that corruption isn't only in Gotham or Metropolis, it's everywhere”.
The Kryptonian looked at the gun with a mixed expression before the figure in front of them raised it and pointed it at his chin.
All three of them, even Cassie and Mareena went wide eyed and tried to stop the figure from shooting himself, Kara used her super speed to try at stop him but-
*Click~*.
No bullet. No blood. No brain on the sidewalk. Nothing but the sound of the trigger sending air through the barrel.
The figure felt a hand touch his own and rip the gun from his hands with a strength that a normal sixteen year old girl did not usually possess.
Kara, who had scrunched up the pistol with her super strength went blank as she looked at the lack of bullets in the cartridge as she released her clenched hand.
The figure in front of them raised his eyebrow even further at the girl, before smiling and extending his hand.
”To be honest I don't really like guns either. I had a friend that used a gun to do some pretty crazy things before he died.... anyway, I'm Graham, but my friends call me Gray”
