Chapter 3 - 3 Counting (1/2)

Narrator Pov 4

Time was 8:45 in the morning with the blazing sun in the air, a figure could be seen walking while an even smaller figure seated on the person's shoulders. These two figures were Theodore and his cute blond haired daughter Rose.

Rose was wearing her blue overalls with a white shirt underneath. Her hair was done into a simple bun and on her back was a purple backpack that held her lunch.

Theodore was wearing dark blue slim fit jeans and a yellow shirt that had some art on it. His short black hair with white strands glistened in the sunlight.

Theodore was walking with his happy go lucky daughter on his shoulder talking about the Old Man that gave her the chance to make a wish.

Theodore was proud of her daughter shouting stranger danger when met with such creepy people. Theodore had already put a mark on his daughter that would teleport her at smallest chances of danger.

The only problem is that the marks awareness is only as good as its owner. Meaning the marks ability to sense danger is only the same level as a Theodore.

And being a regular person with zero fighting and near death experience, he basically only the simple awareness of seeing possible danger and moving away.

Theodore was worried about his daughters future and needed to begin training to make his danger awareness something like spider senses. For now, Theodore had made a mental note to make something that would protect Rose in case the mark wasn't fast enough.

'Let's see the timeline right now is a year after the events of Iron Man, the world is aware of mutants but not aliens or gods. The next big event that I know of is Iron Man 2 but that doesn't leave out other possible events. I need to be prepared for every scenario' Thought Theo worryingly

While walking and entertaining his daughter he had failed to realise that he's was being watched by the surrounding females as if he was a delectable dessert.

With his charming smile, the sunlight perfectly kissing his skin and with his fatherly love on the show, caused a storm to brew inside the passing women's hearts.

Rose had seen these stares and had been giggling in delight while also advertising her dad with a happy shout ”Daddy is the best”

Rose was seen counting on her fingers by Theo and he thought to himself 'Haha my daughter is already practising for school'

Rose, on the other hand, was looking at the women walking by while counting '1 mommy, 2 mommy, 3 mommy, 4 mommy, more. 5 mommy. . . . . etc'

They finally got to kindergarten and met the teacher. The teacher was a mid-forties blond married women. Her name was Samantha Jones, She talked with Rose and Theodore about the school.

”Daddy will be at home, okay. Make sure to make lots of friends and be nice okay. Remember what I told you about bad people and boys” Said Theodore on one knee looking at Rose.

Rose nodded with her eyes slightly watery. Then she gave one last big hug to Theodor. Looking down at Rose hugging him made him want to just to pick her up and take her away but he knew he couldn't as this was an important step in her life.

So with a kiss to her forehead, he said ”You be good and strong okay. Love you”

”Love you, daddy,” Said, Rose before being escorted by Mrs Jones to class.

Theodore was now outside the shop that Elijah had provided for him. The shop had from the outside looked run down and broken. He was beginning to think Elijah was messing with him.
