《Avenger's Soulmate》Chapter 15- Getting Ready
Advertisement
After getting staying up late I dropped Maddie back home
As soon as I hit my bed when I got home I crashed
I felt like I only slept a couple minutes before hearing the doorbell rang
I lay in bed thinking that it's just my mind playing tricks on me until I hear it again
This time I get up and rush downstairs
I open the door to see Wanda and Natasha standing with smiles
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, I guess I slept in. Give me like 10 minutes and I'll be ready, I swear" I say frantically
"Hey it's ok don't worry about it, take all the time you need, we'll down here" Wanda says
I rush upstairs to get ready
I decide to shower later so I can be fresh for when I get ready for the gala
I wash my face quickly put on some mascara and lipgloss toss on a pair of jeans, a yellow shirt and a pair of nude heels
I walked downstairs and grab my small purse, putting my phone and keys in there
"Ok I'm ready" I say with a smile
We get in the car and drive to the salon
We sit in the pedicure chairs with me in the middle, Natasha on my right, and Wanda on my left
"Are you excited for tonight" Wanda asks
"I'm actually really nervous. I'm not used to things like that, being the center of attention at all" I say a little nervously
"Don't worry, we'll all be there when you arrive. Me and Wanda will be right down the staircase so when you come down we can grab you and take you with us" Natasha says grabbing my hand
After we're done getting our nails done we decide to go out to lunch since we still have about an hour till we have to get ready

We go to a cute little restaurant and sit at the table in the corner
"You know, I'm really glad that two of my soulmates are girls" I say
"And why's that" Wanda asks
" I mean a girl is always more comfortable with a girl and plus it's nice knowing that I'm not just surrounded by men all the time. I have strong women around me too" I say sincerely
"I'm glad you think that and trust me, me and Wanda feel just as lucky having such a bad ass mate" Natasha says to me
After we finish our lunch we decide to go back to my house and just hang out for a bit
When we get there I show them my room but make sure to keep my dress covered so they don't see it
"Oh my gosh I still don't have any shoes to wear, Maddie said she would take care of it!" I say freaking out
"Calm down babe, I'll be right back" Wanda says
"Where is she going" I ask Natasha
"Don't worry she'll be back" she tells me
A minute later Wanda walks back in
She smirks and I decided to just ignore it
The three of us get on my bed, cuddling into each other and turn on the TV
We watch for about an hour until I hear the door bell ring
We walked downstairs to see Maddie with her dress in a garment bag and her shoes in her other hand
"This is our cue to leave" Natasha says
"We'll see you tonight sweetheart, we can't wait" Wanda says kissing my head
Natasha gives me a hug and a kiss like Wanda
"Theres a box on your kitchen island it's for you" Natasha says before her and Wanda walk out of the door

Maddie heads upstairs to get everything ready for me with a knowing smile
I walk over to the island and sit down on one of the chairs
I grab the box and open the card that sitting on top of it
Dear Rory,
We cannot tell you how grateful we are that you came into our lives. Finally we feel complete. We want you to know that do you everything you go through we will always be by your side and cheering you on. Know that you will always be unconditionally loved and taken care of.
This is something we picked out for you to wear tonight. We all wanted you to have a little piece of us with you on your special night. We hope you like it
With Love,
Your soulmates
I open the box to see a beautiful pair of shoes
They're white stilettos with gold butterfly wings on the end
I start tearing up a little bit
I wipe my eyes before walking upstairs with the shoes a huge smile
"I knew you'd love them" Maddie says as soon as she sees me in the doorway practically glowing
We both go upstairs, her laying out her things while I go take a quick shower
Once I'm out, dried, and dressed, we both start doing our hair and make up in front of the huge vanity
I curl my hair and do twisted crown style and pin it in the back
For my makeup I do a reddish brown Smokey eye with gold
I also put on some red liquid lipstick
Maddie finishes her make up and put on her dress
"Oh my gosh look at you, your gorgeous" I say in awe
"Thank you, ok C'mon it's your turn now" she says shoving my dress to me
I get changed put on the shoes and walk out
"You look absolutely stunning Rory! Those shoes go perfectly and red is definitely a color!" She says
We both get our stuff and go downstairs
"Alright now Rory you're gonna stay here until someone comes to gets you ok" and with that she leaves
I put on some gold earrings, a dainty gold bracelet, and a simple gold choker necklace
I hear the door bell ring
I walk over and open it to see Nick standing there in a suit
"Look at you all grown up. You look absolutely beautiful" he says pulling me into a hung and kissing me on the head
"You look very handsome yourself Nick, I think Maria will like it" I say winking (Hill and Fury are soulmates btw)
I work out to see a limo waiting in the driveway
Nick helps me get in and slides in next to me
"You know I think this is what your mom would've wanted. Your mom never gave up and she would've never wanted you to either, this would've made her proud, you coming back working with shield again" Nick tells me squeezing my hand
"Honestly, I think so too" I say sincerely

The Fire Within Can Be Scary
In a fantasy world similar to ours, magic worked similarly to physics, with each elemental spirit magic being tied to a state of matter. Earth is solid.Water is liquidAir is gas.Fire is plasma. Four elements, four states of matter. However in the ancient world of Hitarea, "Plasma" hadn't been discovered yet. The people of this world believe that only three states of matter existed, and thus, only three elemental magic could exist. For years, Earth, Water, and Air stood alone as the three main elements from which all others originated. Advanced arts like metal from earth, or Ice from water were only extensions of their original element . . . so what does that make Fire? Fire is powerful as the earth with its mighty explosions, flexible like water as it writhes around in the air, and swift like the wind. All at the same time. Fire, in regards to combat, is the most powerful element by far. This fearsome power is Alden's to master, but this power is a double-edged sword. One shouldn't play around with fire if you don't want to be burned. The fire within can be scary, you know?

Prey No More
Imagine being given a second chance at life. Not only that but with a life you chose (sort of). This is exactly the situation that our character is in. He was once a Biology Graduate Student involved in a special program in Alaska studying Polar Bears. In an ironic twist of fate his life is ended by exactly that which he was trying to study. Now, in a new world, he refuses to be anything but the top of the food chain. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a story I began writing a year and a half ago and decided to shelf, I'm coming back to it now because I miss writing; however, I have not carved out any time specifically for this and, as of now, it will be something I do on the side for fun. Currently I have 9 chapters plus a prologue written; I'm going to be going through and editting it to be in a present tense (from past), as well as changing some of the story and grammar. Let me know what you think, and thanks for reading.
