I thought that looking straight at her would scare her, or at least surprise her.
I was wrong.
She lifted her electric blue eyes to meet mine, holding my gaze with equal calm and poise. I unconsciously curled my hands into fists, feeling my muscles tense up. I didn't know how, but when it came from her, my body perceived even this simple action as a threat.
"How do you do this to me?" I whispered, raising my hand. However, I heard no response. At least, not a verbal one.
She simply put her hand up to meet mine and I watched, transfixed, as our arms moved in perfect synchrony, taking in a deep breath when our fingertips brushed lightly against each other. I felt myself start to go dizzy as I stared into her darkly entrancing eyes.
Now, I had a different question to ask.
What are you doing to me?
However, she still did not respond. Instead, she continued to stare blankly at me.
Enraged, I brought my fist forward, shattering the glass.
There. Now my nemesis was nothing more than a pile of shards.
I was a superhero, and the only supervillain I had left to fight was myself.
