It's chapter 4 guys! Thanks to all you dudes who reviewed. You don't know how much I'm loving them. I think my notes do be small.

Chapter 4: An Underwater Experience

I woke the following morning happy. I have no idea why, I just felt like today was going to be a good day.

I looked down at Nathan, who was cuddled into me to keep warm, had a strained look on his face.

"Wake up Nathan." I whispered shaking him very lightly.

He woke and smiled up at me.

Yeah?

"You were strained? It's like you were holding something together with telekinesis." I said.

Don't worry. I was just having a dream. It was a good one now that I think of it.

"Come on. Let's get breakfast. Do you want it here or out in a cafe?"

But going out into town with me give people the wrong impression?

"One thing you should know about me is that I give the slightest what they think."

I thought back to last night and bigger Nathan helping me. I was surprised he didn't ask what I was doing with all of the baby stuff.

My bedroom door locked and I heard fighting in the living room.

I was already changed to go into town and so was Nathan at this stage.

I ran over to my door and banged on it.

The door opened. I ran back for Nathan and grabbed him.

What's going on?

"I don't know. I'd say the tower is being invaded. Cyborg is going to go nuts."

"Hey. There's another one of their team." One of the intruders said and broke into a run towards me.

I held onto Nathan tightly and noticed a puddle on water on the floor. I swept it up and blinded the guy (couldn't think of another word).

I sped away from him and around a corner. I was suddenly stopped by a hand clamped over my mouth and an arm snaked around my waist, pulling me into the person.

I immediately panicked.

Calm down. It's your friend from last night. The one who helped you.

Nathan sr.

"Hiya Lauren. Sorry I scared you. Making sure you're ok. Well I got orders from cape-boy that I should get you out of here." Nathan said taking his hand away.

He lifted me up bridal-style and jumped out the window.

I clutched onto both Nathan's tightly.

"I'm not going to let you go."

He set me down into the T-biggerminiship and hopped into the driver's seat.

In the back was a baby seat. Nathan must have put it there knowing about Nathan jr.

I secured Nathan into his seat and out on my own.

The ship took off at a high speed and knocked some of the guards away.

"I wish you wouldn't do that to my guards. I need them for when I rule the world."

My head turned quickly to the back.

Slade.

I threw my belt off and pulled Nathan away from him. I set him in my seat while I climbed into the back to kick Slade's ass.

I tried to stun him with some electricity but he just blocked it off and he pinned me against the glass with my hands above my head with one hand. Nathan was forced to keep his eyes on the sky because there was no auto pilot and Nathan jr. was sleeping.

I attempted to spit at Slade but he just cocked his head to the side and it landed on the other side of the glass.

He pulled a blindfold out of his pocket and put it across my eyes tightly but gently.

Now that I was blindfolded my other senses raised and I became tense.

"Loosen yourself up. There's no need to be frightened." Slade whispered in my ear. One thing that caught my attention was that his warm face was against my skin, not a cold mask.

"Get away from me." I hissed.

"Why would I do that when I have you under my control?" he said. I felt that he was very close to me for comfort. He must have done something to Nathan so that he wouldn't do anything because normally he would have done something by now.

"I am not under your control and nev-" but Slade cut me off by pressing his lips against mine. He had my hands cuffed to the hand bar running across the top for safety so his arms were free. He wrapped them around my waist and pulled me closer to him and then he moved down my neck and up to my ear and whispered, "I'll see you around". I lifted my knee and hit him really hard in the balls, causing him to fall back. I pulled the blindfold off and saw that Slade had already put his mask back on.

Slade disappeared in front of my eyes and Nathan was back to normal.

"Lauren? How did you get back there?" Nathan asked.

Let me fix that.

"Lauren! Are you ok? Let's get you home." Nathan said worriedly.

He lifted Nathan jr. up and set him in the back while I moved back to the front.

"What did Slade do to you? All I heard was you two talking and then you were cut off."

"Nothing happened." I replied.

Nathan knew not to continue the conversation and we landed out of the city, in a rural area.

"Did Robin tell you to stay here?" I asked.

"Yeah. How'd you know?"

"Sounds Robin-ish."

I'm hungry.

I was too.

"Are we allowed back into town?" I asked.

"Don't know. Why?"

"Nathan and I missed breakfast and are starving."

"Let's go."

"I'll have an Irish Breakfast please. Nathan jr. will have..." I looked at him questioningly. We were in a nearby cafe from where we landed and we got an outside table.

Milky rice.

"Milky rice." I said politely.

The waitress looked at me with a faint snarl and turned to Nathan with the sweetest smile in the world.

I buried a growl.

"And you sir?" she asked.

"Uh. Extra large Irish breakfast with a muffin on the side." He said not looking up at her but having the most stupidest look on his face showing that he was really looking forward to his breakfast.

"Ok. Do you want any drinks?" she asked.

"Milk all round." Nathan said immediately.

"Ok. I'll be back in a few minutes." She said and narrowed her eyes at me.

I had enough. I stood up. "Listen here doll-face, you better keep those eyes open so that you'll be able to see where you're going and the snarl, it's going great but I didn't know you wanted to be a leopard." I said.

There was a puddle next to the table so I used my mind and it jumped up and wet her pants to make it look like she wet herself.

"You didn't have to go to the toilet in your pants you know. There's a toilet inside." I said sitting down.

She just looked at me and then slapped me hard.

"Hey. Keep your hands to yourself piss-pants." Nathan said.

The rest of breakfast wasn't as exciting but it was alright. Nathan's order had to come out separate to mine and Nathan jr's because it was so big.

When we got back the sun was shining through the trees heavily.

"Who wants to go swimming?" Nathan asked out of the blue.

I turned to him. "How the hell am I supposed to go swimming without any gear? Where do we go swimming?" I asked.

"There's a lake nearby and an old shack that isn't used anymore they've got swimming gear there." He said walking towards it. I picked up Nathan and followed.

After about five minutes of walking through a forest we came upon a beautiful clear lake with a mini waterfall.

I saw the shack that Nathan was on about and walked towards it. Nathan opened the door and switched on the light. From the looks of it it wasn't closed long.

"Where's the swimming stuff?" I asked looking around.

Nathan pulled out a box and set it on the table. "These are all that they had for women since they didn't come round here often."

He left and closed the door behind him. I suppose I'm changing in here.

I took the lid off and looked through everything. All they had were bikinis and they were too small for me but not by much. I'm going to kill Nathan.

"NATHN!" I shouted. He rushed in.

"What's wrong?"

"Why are there only bikinis?" I asked holding one up.

"Because they ran out of swimsuits. That's all they have so it's either that or nothing." Nathan said and closed the door behind him again as he left.

I picked out a random bikini and put it on. I felt so exposed. I grabbed a pair of goggles too so that I could see underwater.

I looked at myself in the mirror and then walked over to the door, opening it slightly. "I'm not coming out like this."

There was no reply so I turned back to the shack and took a look around.

A set of arms scooped me up and brought me out to the lake.

"Let me go Nathan!" I shouted.

"Nope. Besides. You look really nice in that."

I growled.

"Okay, okay. I guess I should be happy that you can't read my mind then." Nathan replied. I hit him in the arm. Nathan jr. yawned.

"He needs sleep. Have we got a towel?" I asked.

"No. He's on my hoodie anyway and the heat from the sun will keep him warm." Nathan said and stood at the edge of the lake. It was deep and the floor was sandy. Nothing to hurt.

He threw me in and I went flying into the water. I surfaced and put on the goggles. When they were fixed I duck-dived down to the sea bed.

An arm encircled my waist and I turned quickly and saw Nathan millimetres away from me. I looked at his neck. Gills. I wonder how he got them. Must be an extra side-effect to his powers. He put his hand on my neck and gave me the same. We chatted under the water.

"You don't need the goggles. You have perfect sighting now." He said and took them off me.

"Is this your side-effect power?" I asked.

"Yeah. Do you like it?"

"Yeah." I replied and swam away into an underwater cave. It was dark but not too dark.

"Hey Lauren." Nathan called.

I turned.

"I've always wanted to trap you in here." He said smiling.

"What for?" I asked.

He leaned forward and kissed me. He wrapped his arms around my waist pulling me into him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and since we have gills there was no need to stop for a breath.

Hi guys. Sorry if this chapter was boring. I know my notes are small but I don't want them big to bore the readers. Thanks again to my reviewers.
