Home sweet Home

"Welcome to my lovely home!" Lily said to me as we walked inside her home, "wow... its pretty normal." I tell her.

"Now then, I think there should be some food in the fridge so wait here." She tells me as she makes her way to the kitchen.

I looked around awkwardly, it was awfully quiet for a family sized house, suddenly Atom appeared "wow, this isn't as bad as I expect." He said, "I guess?" I said as I continued looking around, in the corner of my eye I see a little kid spying on me, I walk towards him but suddenly he runs back to his room and shuts the door, "I'm back!" I jumped as I hear Lily's voice unexpectedly, "The most we have for food is a kids tv dinner and ramen cups, I knew i should've went grocery shopping earlier." Lily said to me.

"Hey, I have some questions for you Lily?" I ask her, "Where are your parents and who was that kid over there?" I ask as I point to where I saw the kid, "Oh, that's my little brother Jackson, He's shy when it comes to strangers and plus he's... going through things right now." She answers, "alright... and what about your parents?" I ask but Lily grows silent for a brief moment, suddenly she asks me "Can we chat in my room for a moment?" which I obliged to her request.

We entered Lily's room, it looks like she idolizes Killerpatty a lot... I mean a lot, she has Killerpatty bedsheets, Killerpatty Plushies, probably even Killerpatty pajamas. "So what's up?" I ask here, she stares blankly at me, she looks away and then states the following to me, "Are you the defender Oliver Peddleton?", I grew silent, I grew mad, "I know your partners Colossus and Speedster were murdered." She says to me with guts but I didn't want to hear anymore of it, I didn't care what she had to say, I got up and began to walk out, "Wait! Don't leave please..." she yelled at me, before i turned the doorknob she tells me "I want revenge too!", awkward silence goes on for a few minutes.

"To answer your question, My father is on a business trip and wont return till February... My mother on the other hand was killed, along with my older sister." Lily sadly tells me, I stay silent but give a sympathetic vibe, "I want revenge on the bastard that killed my mom and sister and you wanna get revenge for your friends? Please let me tag along! I want to do this... for my mom and sis." She tells me. I contemplate her offer, "You can join but let me tell you, it wont be easy." I tell her, Atom suddenly popped out like usual, I guess he wanted to lighten the mood, "I got an idea! Lets tell each other's origins!" Atom tells us, I respond back with "I'm not a superhero you know."

I decided to go first, "It was three years ago, I drove from my hometown of Rhinestone Harbor to the City of Hamsterdam when there was news of a mysterious event going on involving Food people getting beamed up into the sky, I was ordered to join the evacuation with Colossus and Speedster... I don't consider myself lucky to be alive, Grin Scurvy has connections to the Apex Gang so he gathered as many thugs and criminals as possible and went to town on anyone, shot, stab, skulls bashed open you name it, he broke me mentally when I saw the remains of colossus and speedster hanging from a bridge with a calling card, ever since I went looking for that bastard and putting a bullet between his eyes."

Lily decide to tell her side of the story next, "It was also three years ago, My family were told to evacuate when we were on a vacation to hamsterdam, we were forced to split up, I went with my dad and brother while my mom and sister were separated from us, they must have took the wrong path cause after the event we got a call saying they were pronounced dead, after that I changed a lot, I went from a shy girl to the bright and happy girl I am but I still carry the sadness of My mom and sister's death that I haven't let go of."

Lastly, Atom decided to tell his story, "I am not from this world, or dimension, or realm, I am from the shadow realm which is outside of the multiverse, my brothers Vanta and Grey framed me for destroying a Universe Globe which my master, Overlord Void was very upset and disappointed of me, he ripped me of my physical body and exiled me from the Shadow Realm, I was supposed to be dead but I found unfortunate souls who required powers that I could supply them with, one of these unfortunate souls was Oliver and we've been working together since I met him." Both of us were a little scared from this cause this was the first we heard that the Multiverse actually existed, "well... that was fun." I said.

"well Lily, if you can keep up with me then you can stay." I tell her, "Lets start our journey tomorrow.", Lily decided to ask one more question, "Hey Oliver, so what exactly happened to you after the event that caused your friends death?" Lily asks me, I grew silent... I didn't know if I wanted to answer since that was a dark time of my journey to find Grin Scurvy, it was before I found Atom... I decided to say the simplest answer to her, "I don't like talking about... but I'll tell you another day."
