World Of Heroes And Legends

Chapter 3 - Job Offer

Louise frowned clearly upset.

"So you got fired, I thought he'd at least give you a second chance?" She says.

" I think he did. Apparently, based on what Jason told me I slack off a lot. So it might not be my second chance, but my fifth or seventh." I say shrugging.

" Impossible!" Both Clark and Louise says startling the three of us.

"You never slack off unless you're dead tired. You love your job, remember? Plus with all the by projects and objects that you created for the company I'd think you'd barely get any sleep." Says Louise, really angry at what I had said. I blinked, ah so this me is kinda like me. I shrugged.

"It's fine. I'll think of something." I say.

"What do you do for a living?" Asks Peter as they sat by us.

"I'm a scientist, I build and create things that are as some kids say sciency. Like phones so techno scientist, if you will." I say. Peter's eyes lit up like fireworks.

" So you like to work on gadgets? Or make them? Then give me your number, but first.... We'll make a trade, I know this might not be in your field of expertise, but help us with our project. What's the theory behind black holes?" He asks. Oh, actually this is easy, no one in these times know how black holes are made or how they work and the theories are crap. I nodded my head and grinned.

"Do you perhaps have a pencil, pen and a not used book which I can write in, I'll explain what I'm writing whilst I write, deal?" I ask holding my hand out, completely forgetting my slice of cake and milkshake. Gwen handed a book over along with a sharp pencil while Peter gave me a pen. I smiled in thanks and opened to the first page of the book, taking the pencil I drew a picture of a black hole in a 3-D shape.

"Did you know that Black holes rip things apart once they are close enough? Probably, right? But you probably didn't know that they keep on shredding you until your nothing but atoms. Which in turn creates the dust, or black matter that floats around in it's gravity. Black Holes are typically made from a dying stars aftermath. Because of the explosion they give off once they die, the matter or atoms that once stood in the midst of the line of fire disperses and creates a slight vortex or tornado, if you will, but....*pauses so that I could breath* the winds twist in two directions, which creates the shredding force.*I drew a picture of what I said and then write down the gits of it* and at the heart of it all stands the core of a dead star, a dark dwarf, Dark dwarves have a slight s.u.c.k.i.n.g force that drags things towards it, yes gravity, but a million times stronger than even a Blue star. Or usually known as a super Nova.*pauses again.* which creates in turn a slight white light, the circles you see in a black hole. Now why does a dark dwarf do this? Because it wants more gass, so that it could refuel itself and turn back into it's former self. This of course doesn't always happen because the matter and atoms missing would have to be an enormous amount. Imagine one trillion Jupiter's disappearing in an instant, leaving nothing behind. That is what would have to happen for there to be a dark dwarf that turns to a black hole...." As I finished I looked up and saw that everyone stared at me, surprised. "What? It's apart of science, just because I like working with gadgets doesn't mean I don't study other things." I pointed out. Gwen grinned and took the book, which I had worked halfway through.

"Wow, okay now your phone number please?" Asks Gwen handing the book back. I nodded and wrote down *checking phone number* my number, name and signature down, just so that they'd know it's me. I handed their things back smiling.

" So how do you stop a black hole?" Asks Peter. I frowned.

"Mhmn, that's a hard answer. It's like a tornado, but instead you'd have to have two things that rotate in opposite directions at amazing speeds, even faster than the speed of light. You'd also have to be able to send small shock waves through it from behind so that the dwarf could cool down a little. Why?" I ask.

" Um,no reason, we're just curious. Oh and I'll ask Tony Stark to employ you, he owes me a favor." Says Peter.

" Eh, just like that?!" I ask surprised. I can't believe they'd ask Tony to employ me, so cool!

" Yep, Tony might investigate who you are so you'll have to wait for a few hours. Or days. But don't worry I'm sure he'll employ you, you're a nice person. Oh, we should probably go, bye guys." Peter says and they stood up walking away. I looked at Clark and Louise my eyes wide.

"I can't believe this." I say grinning.

"Why not? Now you get to work for a hero." Says Louise.

"Hey, she had already worked for one before remember?" Asks Clark rolling his eyes, Louise grinned.

"Yeah but this guy is a scientist like her. Plus I'm sure she'll enjoy herself there. San, just don't forget you're helping me with my wedding." Says Louise scowling.

" Yeah, yeah. I should head back to the lab to pack my things up. See you guys later." I say and stood up and then I stopped looking at my slice of cake and milkshake. " Waiter!" I called. He rushed over panting. Oh, boy.

"May I have these in take aways please?" I ask. He nodded and took the plate and class away. A few seconds later he returned with a plastic cup and a small box. He handed them over and I payed about twice the price for them, but he gave me the rest of my change before walking away leaving without me saying a word. I shook my head and waved goodbye to Louise and Clark. Entering my lab I rolled my eyes as a view the same as the one from earlier greeted me.

"Alright, get your butts outta here. I have to pack up." I say startling the two of them.

" Jesus, Sandy, can't you knock?" Asks Jason, I gave a shrug.

" You'd think that a person doesn't need to knock to be able to enter their own offices. You two can continue later, I was told to take my things and that's what I'm doing." I say and walked passed them choosing to ignore them.

" Wait, what? Why were you told to pack up?" Asks Jason, a confused expression plastered on his face.

"Someone reported me in for slacking off, so your dad decided to fire me." I say and took out a few boxes, using a black marker I marked the one box for books and the second for tools, the third one for gadgets and the last one for equipment like pens and papers.

"Well, it wasn't me. I hadn't reported you to anyone except for Jane."He paused and sent a glare at the cowering girl that had hid her head once again in his c.h.e.s.t.

"That was before she threatened us! I didn't think... nor did I know.... please forgive me." Jane says. Jason shook his head and sighed. I taped the boxes shut since I had already packed everything in. Stacking them on top of the other.

"Please don't tell my father about what we were doing, like Jane says she did it before not after." Jason begged.

" I don't have any grudges against either of you, so I won't tell anyone. Oh but I did tell my friend Louise, don't worry *says after seeing their worried expressions* I told her not to write it in the Daily Planet. Bye you two." I say and walked past them and into the elevator, all the way barefooted. It's a surprise that no one noticed or seemed to care. Moving the boxes to one arm I fidelt with the keys of a bike I found in my bag, I'll just have to go searching through every bike in the lower parking spaces.

*Ding*

Stepping out, I eyed the wide expanse of the parking lot to find that there was only three vehicles left, and only one bike amongst them.

"Well, ain't I lucky?" I muttered and walked over, strapping the boxes to the back of the bike I hopped on and started it. Luckily in my old life I had ridden a bike more than once, one time in highschool due to a dare and the other times because of either boyfriends or just for fun. I pulled my hair back into a pony tail and then drove off.

Placing the boxes down on the coffee table of my new home I straightened and yawned, I shook my head wanting to explore first before I fell asleep. Suddenly out of nowhere, a fussy and furry ball of black rubbed against my legs, my eyes widen in shock. This me has a pet?! I bent down and pulled the little bal of fur onto my l.a.p, pure blue eyes looked up at my.

"Aww, why aren't you a cute one?" I ask as I ran my fingers through the little guy's fur. My fingers caught on a band, a name tag.

[ Yame] Wow, cute name! It barked at me and I stared at it. It's a wolf cub. I can't believe that this me likes wolves as well. But she at least had the courage to take one in.

"Mind giving me a tour of the house, little Yame?" I ask gesturing for him to lead the way. He gave a woof and jumped down from my l.a.p and began to walk away, a swagger in each step, swaying his b.u.t.t side to side in sass. I covered my mouth trying not to laugh. This wolf reminds me of Lyra, ah and there goes my good mood. Sighing I followed him around the house, finding that there was two rooms, one for me and one for Yame,I mean the entire room consists of dog toys and food, who else could it belong to? Then there's a study, filled with gadgets, tools and books a desk stationed in front of a window. There is of course a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom, but there is an extra bathroom attached to my room, I entered my room and walked to the closet opening it up and flinched. Nothing but short skirts, pants and shirts. Ugh, I am so going for a mass shopping expedition. I took out a decent enough, white night gown and under garments and took a quick shower, after wards I fell heavily into the queen sized bed and rolled taking the cover with me, until I was twisted in blankets and quilts. Falling asleep with a fussy and cuty Yame, who had laid on his back next to me, his paws in the air.

Third Person POV;

*Buzzzzz* The phone next to a certain bed began to ring, a hand reached out from underneath a mountain of blankets, patting the bedside table in search of the phone, while only managing to push it off. Frustrated A head with bed hair popped out from the blankets and leaned on the bedside table, trying to get the phone, the table broke with a loud crack just as the girl got the phone. Hitting the green button she brought the phone to her ear just as the table collapsed and she sat up in her bed.

"This is Sandy Hale speaking." She says, her voice foggy from sleep. A black head popped up and ran off.

"I hope I didn't wake you up, Miss Hale. This is Tony Stark speaking." Says a strong voice from the other side. Startled, Sandy tried to get to her feet but the covers of her bed didn't let her, entangled she fell off of the bed, her feet still atop The bed whilst she laid on her back on the floor.

"Uh! No! You didn't wake me up, Mister Stark." She says hurriedly while trying to free her legs but gave up as the blankets were to tangled to budge.

"What was that? Did you just fall from your bed?" He asks sounding like he was stifling his laughter. Sandy's pale face turned a slight rosy red.

"No? Um,why are you calling me so early in the morning, Mister Stark?" Asks Sandy, trying to change the subject.

" To tell you, that I'm standing in front of your house with a jet and here to help you pack your things." Says Tony. Sandy's eyes widen and she tried to sit up but fell back hitting her head against the floor and creating a small crater where her head had hit.

"You are in front of my house?! So fast?! Wait with a jet?! But I thought it would take a while before you'd contact me?! Or to get to me?!"She says, when the black ball of fur laid down on top of her stomach, relaxing itself.

"Ah, Yame get off, please." Sandy begs while trying to nudge him off, but just like the blankets the little cub refuses.

"Who's Yame? Never mind. Get ready and come open the door for us please, you'll be starting a new job tomorrow, so we'll have enough time to pack your things, that is if you still wish to work for me. Though you won't exactly work for me but the Avengers, assuming you know who they are?" Asks Tony.

" Yes, but why won't I be working for you, aren't you the leader of the Avengers?" Sandy asks.

" I am, but another company owns us. I'll explain as soon as you agree." Says Tony.

" May I work on my own projects and objects?" Sandy asks.

" Yes you may." Says Tony.

" Then yes. I'll work for the Avengers."
