1 Lost

N.G (p.o.v)

I have been living on my own after losing everybody I loved and cared about.

Well... almost all of them.

All my life, I was afraid of this happening. I thought I wouldn't be able to handle it. But look at me now. My life has changed. It is not lonely, it is free. I realized that I have always wanted this, not this way but it's God's plans. I never thought it was bad though. But it all ended up to take me into another life...full of people. You never really know what's comin' to ya after all.

My name is Nuella Grace Connolly but I prefer my initials N.G. Usually, people in my circle are the only once I allowed to call me that. But for now I have none.

Anyway. I am 26 years old.

(a/n: in fact 18 but that's the fanfic)

and I lost my family and best friend two years ago.. In a car crash.

I used to live in Florida but I moved to Boston. I wanted to forget everything and start over .I had a job as a theater singer, singing after a movie or a play and it's really fun.

Right? It was fun.

But.. No such good thing comes easily. This was my dream. To reveal my talents somewhere they'll be appreciated.

I've had my first job when I was eighteen. I remember being so enthusiastic about having a job since I was very little. When I was in highschool, I wanted to be independent, to earn my keep. And be helpful to others.

I took the first chance to work as a secretary. It was the only thing available for me after so much searching. I was done with high school and have applied for the faculty of applied arts. One of my hobbies was to draw.

There was only one week left for my college to start when this job was offered. I didn't hesitate, having no idea that my schedule would be pretty full.

It was offered by a friend of dad's, an engineer. I tried to look for jobs myself and spotted an offer for a writer. I loved to write and when I took the interview, I realized they wanted me to write "exciting" stories about dildos. I blocked the company's manager right away. It was an online interview.

That's why I took my dad's offer. I was young and inexperienced to depend on myself just yet. But after one month of working as a secretary and days before my first salary. My boss, who's a civil engineer and 22 years older than me, happens to fall in love with me. He hinted that he wanted to marry me.

It wasn't right. Firstly, He was just starting his first ever project and didn't have a home. I'm not a gold digger. He just happens to not promise anything.

Secondly, he didn't even speak to my dad. Although as "friends" he should've. He had nothing to fear.

Thirdly, in my mom's opinion, if someone like him wants something like that, he should bring flowers or good perfume before saying anything to me. I didn't exactly agree. But it was kinda right.

I was terrified. No one ever dared to show interest in me like that. Sure I know I'm attractive. But I never let anyone in. I just wasn't ready. After a discussion with my parents, I decided to stay. Tell him "nicely" that I refuse. He took it very well. But I was never comfortable ever after.

When the day came for my first salary, I was expecting 200$ . My dad told me that this was what he said. It was not much. But I accepted.

As the first month passed, I have done more than my boss expected. I was very good at my job and I made myself proud. He appeared to be very generous, so I expected he might make my salary higher.. Maybe 250?

But I was shocked when the day came, and he only gave me 100$.I was so angry. I barely had time for him, my college, my courses that were also to help HIM! and this is what I get?!

I called my best friend, and she suggested that he may have done that because I rejected him. I didn't believe it because he appeared to be a good person.

Or so I thought.

What I knew from that night on, is that he wasn't generous. In fact, he was so stingy. Pretty much a reason for him to not be married at all. No woman deserves.. That.

What came afterwards was normal. I did my tasks. And he was slowly getting me into marketing and project strategy.

We sold the first apartment. And he gave me an expensive course as my share of the company's earnings. I was glad.

But then, after I went to reserve the course with the money I was given. He told me it was his treat. A present from him.. To me. I didn't like it at all. Especially when he stated "you're in this company with someone who loves you"

It was a very bad period of time. Because after that first income, he decided to rest from campaigning and focus on building their building. He was a civil engineer and the one responsible for site work. I was all alone in that "apartment work place" as I liked to call it. I went there from 11 am to 5pm. In college days, I would go to work as soon as I was done with college.

Three weeks of doing absolutely nothing.

It was torture.

Then he started coming again after being less busy. Everyday, I would notice him changing. Something didn't feel right. And I really wanted to leave that job. But my dad told me to wait.

I did

One day, it was a Tuesday.. He called and asked me to stay overtime. My shift ended at 5 and it was winter. Night came early and that apartment was in the middle of nowhere. So, I was supposed to do some easily weird stuff. And I did them with no questions. Organizing some files on his laptop while he sat behind me to tell me what to do. I suddenly stiffened. I felt something light, so light and soft. On my butt.

It was his disgusting hand, touching me.

My eyes went wide in shock. My blood boiled, ringing in my ears. But I did absolutely nothing. I left him to think that he was so smart and that I didn't notice, considering that I was wearing a long dress and having layers of clothes underneath because the place was freezing.

My style of clothing is modest, very modest that you'd never even guess my body shape.

(A/N: billie eilish vibes y'all)

I like makeup, but that day I wasn't wearing any. In fact I had scratches on my face. My forehead and the side of my lip. I didn't look good that day. There was no reason for him to do what he did! My mom even called my outfit "granny clothes". I knew it wasn't my mistake. I did nothing wrong. But it still hurt.

He placed his hand on my chair again. Ready to touch again. I pretended to adjust my posture and pushed the seat forward. If that didn't stop him, I was sure I was going to punch him. I promised myself to do what I wanted to do from then on. I went home and told them what had happened. What I was doing next was that:

1- I'll pack all my stuff the following day and leave his fucking keyes to him.

2-I will call and confront him.

3-I'll never ever let anything like that happen to me again.

That course he gave me was cancelled and I put the money in my bank account. I was determined to have the best life. The life that I deserve. I have had other jobs. But they also ended quickly and badly. That's why I like freelancing.

But it all changed once I was discovered.

Once my darkest secret was revealed.

Once I started that new life. I have truly made sure no one ever touched me without my permission. and I had been so proud of myself for it.

One day I was walking in the streets of the city enjoying the breeze. I am used to walk and run a lot and I like it!

Suddenly, my phone rang. I picked it from my purse and answered without looking at the caller's ID.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hi" answered a woman's voice. "Is this Nuella Connolly? " she asked.

"Yes, who is this? " I asked back.

"I am an agent from NYC. I'm calling to tell you you got promoted to the competition Alicia Keys beholds"

I gasped. "Really?! " I squealed!

"Yes! The winner will be on tour with Miss Alicia" she continued, matching my excitement. "Would you like to participate?"

"Oh, I would love to! " I answered excitedly "what should I do? "

"Very simple, just send me your e-mail address and I'll send you the company's address. We will have a meeting in half an hour" she said "The competition is in two days time".

"Thank you so much! " I said "What's your name by the way? "

"Just call me Linda" she said "see you soon!" and she hung up.

Awesome! This is so big.

Okay sooo...where to now? Do I call a taxi?

I have the address..okay a taxi it is !

We stopped beside a hallway so I had to walk the rest of the way. the driver told me the directions and I went by myself.

I was walking in the hallway when suddenly I saw a man and he robbed a woman's bag!

I don't know what came over me, but I used my powers. And I caught him. But also I was caught!

It was Hawkeye!

One of the avengers was there!

I always heard about them but I never thought I'd see them..in real life!

I need to run!

He's staring at me! I can't run faster than him!

Think, N.G think!

Imma hide!

Lucky me I had my spell book ! And so I used it to disappear.

I don't wanna be discovered

I don't want to be known by my "anodite". I am half human, my other half is an alien called the anodite .

I took that after my grand mother she was an anodite too.But I don't know how to control it. I can use the little powers as a human but I can't control turning to her unless I am in great danger. I went on top of the building that was beside me and waited tell he was gone. I proceeded to the building and it was huge! It had so many people working. I just asked about Linda all around and finally I got into her office. She quickly interviewed me and told me the exact time and place I should be at.

I was now walking outside again. I really hope no body finds me this time. I want to pick my stuff and go to the hotel in peace!

I did just that.

.......the morning of competition......

Today is the day! I am not in any rush it's at 4:00 p.m and it's 9:am now.

To my morning routine!

I went to my little kitty ...oh I forgot! I have a little cat named Vicky she is white and sooo fluffy I love her so much! She's not really little she's five years old. But she'll always be my little baby.

I went to her and fed her. Then went to take a shower and wore a navy blue dress. Navy blue is my favorite color !

Now in the hotel restaurant eating breakfast.

I asked about the competition's place and met lotta people who are going there,too!

It's 11:00 am...man what do I do?

I want to walk in the city but I always had a fear of getting lost since I was a kid. I used to have a phobia of getting lost. I would freak out.

I'll try no worries. I can ask about directions anyways right?

I walked and discovered a lot of shops here and went by a supermarket and picked some chocolate on the go.

Now I am in a deeper street and it's noon. Good! I am wasting time fast!😂

Then I saw people from far away. Very far away. They were screaming.

I could hear them from here! They were running from something but what?

Then I saw it!

that was the weirdest thing I have ever seen in my life!!

It was a guy with a big head.

Or a robot ..maybe both!

He was chasing after them firing some laser guns on them. That means the avengers are close by! I need to hide!

And so I did. I found a hallway and hid in it

A little far from them. Then I got distracted when I saw him...

I didn't believe he was real, but he was my favorite avenger. Yep I watched the news everyday because of him. I collected so much information about him from variable sources that I always wanted to make sure of.

The Hulk, Standing some feet away hitting that big head and growling,roaring angrily with every hit. It was awesome !

But that big head had so many other robots with him like minions or something.

And he's the boss. And that green big guy he was just...awesome. I'm in loss for words. I was the type of girl that is a tomboy, wears her brother's tee shirts and playing video games. I love action movies. But this in front of me was a whole different story.

Okay! maybe I have a crush on him😂

Don't judge me! He's super amazing !

Although most people say he is a monster,

I believe he is someone who is misunderstood. Just like me. Besides, why would he save the city if he was evil?

Focus Nuella! Focus! I used my power to sense Any presence around and I found one.

Natasha Rmanoff!

Or..should I say black widow? She was looking at me and a gun was in her hand!

I looked at her angrily, wiping away any fear I felt.

"Why are you looking at me like that?!" I spat. She looked at me coldly. "Drop the act! I know who you are" she said "I came to take you".

"You are so not going to! Why do you guys want me anyway I am no use for you! ".

"Oh I believe you are" she smirked "let's make it the easy way out. Come with us and everything will be alright"

"I am good, and my life is none of your business! Leave me alone! "

"So you want it the hard way" she aimed her gun. She shot it but I quickly created a shield of my mana power. She was stunned and I took my chance to run away .But it wasn't good. I found myself in the middle of the street and a robot was running in my direction....

Do I use my power!?

No

Yes!

He's getting closer !

No you'll be discovered!!

Yes!

Then my argue was cut

And he was hit ..

By no one other than Hulk, who quickly came in front of me and saved my life! He turned to face me "Are you okay?" he asked. I was so stunned that I shuttered when I replied. "Y.. Yeah, yeah" was all I managed to say. He just nodded "now go run! "

I ran.

Wait! Waiiiit!! He didn't come after me!

He doesn't know about me?

Maybe Hawkeye didn't have any chance to tell everyone after all. And that's great!

*Thump*!

I fell. And it all went black.
