Chapter 3- Truth Hurts
Phoebe's POV
Halfway through dinner everybody seemed pretty satisfied with the meal. Now, it's time for dessert and we're gonna have Jen's pie, it looks delicious. Just as everyone started eating the door rang. Who could that b-? Oh no. Link! I totally forgot that he was coming over tonight.
I opened the door and invited him in, might as well let him meet the neighbors. "Hey Link! Sorry. I totally forgot you were coming over tonight." I said. "Oh it's fine Pheebs." He said, kissing my cheek. "Wanna come meet our new neighbors?" I asked. "Sure." He said enthusiastically. I loved that about him. He was always willing to try.
I walked him into the kitchen. "Hi guys. This is my boyfriend-" "Link!" Jennifer finished the sentence for me. Jen sounded gleeful, why? "Wait how do you two know eachother?" I asked panicked. "Link is my cousin." Jen explained. Phew, I don't have to worry about competition. "Wait so does that mean that the Lights are...?" My mom trailed off. "Yeah they're supes." Link explained. "But Jen. You're adopted so...?" I started. "I don't know. It's really complicated." Jen responded. We walked right into where the adults were. "Aunt Spectra! Uncle Beamer!" Link greeted the Light's.
"What?!" My mom said, what happened? "Spectra and Beamer! As in super villains?!" My mom started freaking. Her hands were shaking, never a good sign. Lightning shot out. "Electriss." Beamer said. "Mom what's going on?!" I yelled. My mom didn't seem to hear me at all. "You killed Chloe." My mom said staring straight at Spectra. "Electriss listen we didn't mean to kill your sister. Honest. But we were different back then. After Jen, we turned good. Swear." Spectra said. Wait, what happened with my mom. She had a sister? Omg. Where did Jen actually come from. I looked over at her. She looked just as confused as I felt, so did Link.
Soon President Kickbutt was at our front door. Mom or Dad must have pressed the emergency contact button. "I hear the notorious super villains Spectra and Beamer are here." She said with no emotion. "Yes. We are right here. But we've retired from the supervillain business. For about 15 years now." Spectra said. She seemed like a nice mother. "I'm sorry but we have to take you in. You are hereby sentenced to 5 years in superhero prison. Spectra and Beamer sighed as more heroes started filling our house, cuffing the villains.
"Wait. What are you talking about? They're good people. I mean. They raised me." Jen said, trying to save her parents. "And who might you be?" President Kickbutt asked, she seemed actually concerned. "Jen. Jennifer. Please they're my parents. They are, literally, the only family I have." Jen said. President Kickbutt sighed and looked very sad and remorseful. "Jennifer I am sorry to tell you this but those people are not your real parents." She said.
"I knew that. My real parents died in a car crash when I was a baby." Jen aswered quickly. "Oh Jennifer. Your real parents were superheroes. They were killed by two supervillains, Spectra and Beamer. Their child, you, were abducted by them and raised. Not ever having been found, at least not until now." President KB announced. "You shall stay with Barb and Hank Thunderman. Or, as superheroes, Electriss and Thunder Man." KB said.
"Wait why them? I barely know them. And it's not like they're family." Jen said, she was clearly getting aggitated. One more surprise and, well, let's just say I think we'll find out what kind of super powers she has. "Oh right. Jennifer meet your aunt and uncle. Your parents, or more your mother, had a sister. Barb." KB finished before she left. We all stared at Jen in the middle of the room. She was shaking.
"Are you alright?" Mom asked her. She clutched her hands. "I really don't recommend coming closer." She said. My mom had a confused look. "Listen it's just when I get surprised, or agitated, or angry I sorta-AH!!" Jen said quickly before her hands unclutched and lightning shot out, a power, just like mom's.
