“I see…sounds like something we deal with back home. How many people don’t accept my friends or those who have super powers. Mostly because they are afraid or don’t understand. This in turn causes those with powers to believe humanity needs to be destroyed so they can survive.”
She recalls her father telling her how there was a mutant named Magneto who believed in this so much due to what humanity did to him and his family.
“Despite this there are those with powers who still defend humanity even if they still treat them differently.”
Astrid nodded in agreement, “Yep sounds pretty accurate to me” She said.
Astrid had decided to take the long route around the island, “isn’t the view great?” She asked her as they flew over the water.
Abigail looks over and is loving the view. Even the one with Astrid in front of her and her holding on so she won’t fall. “It is beautiful. I’m glad I came to this world. Would have hated it if I ended up somewhere where people would think I’m a witch and try burning me.”
(I bet they would try burning her in the dark ages)
Astrid raised a brow and then laughed at her comment as they kept flying enjoying the company of Abigail pressed against her back. “Well I suppose I’m glad you came here too” she said back to her.
Abigail nods in response glad that she did come here and is with Astrid. Although, she is worried how things will go when she does fix her suit and has to return home. For now though she is just glad to be with her. Although, she is doing her best to make sure they dont get too close.
Astrid noticed the subtle shift in her expression and she nudged her slightly “hey what’s wrong?” The blonde asked her.
“I’m fine,” she replied trying not to make it seem like nothing is wrong. “I guess I’m still thinking about what happened.”
Astrid looks concerned but she decided not to push it. “Everything is gonna be fine” she said to her to attempt so reassurance.
They soon returned home where Abigail got off and goes to make sure her things are where they are at. Good news is no one touched her suit. Bad news is it looks like some of the villagers were looking at where earlier her repulsor accidentally blasted. She decided to go with the others to do a little interrogating.
She sees where they are keeping them as the men kept silent. Not saying anything as they are questioned.
“Nothing yet?”
Astrid looked at the man tied in a chair before her. “This one is a chatter box but he won’t chatter about who sent them or why” she said. “The others are being held in a different area. The twins and Fishlegs are watching them” she explained to Abigail
