What The Luck!?

"Art...take over here for me. I need to go do something." Asher walked past Art and right in to the hallways. Art struggles with this surprise and wasn't sure if he needed to run after Asher. However, if he did that then the could that was running toward them wouldn't be called in to the cellphone store to sit in a group and hopefully be safe. 

Art called them in and by the time he had turned around Asher was gone. He hurriedly told Louis who had failed with the door but rushed back to try it again. Jackson was even more worried but knew that he couldn't rush off to find out what was going on. The two checked the group chat and read the message from Sammy.

"Two of the villains walked in to the summer wear store. I know it's one of the biggest seasonal stores here but...What are the odds?" Jackson was now worried for the girls' safety since Sammy had followed up saying that they were targeting Cara.

"At least we know where Asher is going. I didn't think he was that emotional. He never just goes and acts out like this. He must be worried that Cara is in danger." Art knew that he would rush off if his parents and even his older brother were in danger. 

"We should hold things down here. I won't tell the girls he is on the way. If they know they might act out and it's better if Asher has a chance to see the situation and slow himself down." Art wasn't sure if this was the right call. But there were people relying on them at that moment and he was not going to leave them to panic.

Asher knew exactly where the summer wear store was. It was the only store that changed its' theme and owners every season to sell different things. He had been there many times and could remember it clearly. Every once in a while someone would run past him in panic or someone hiding would try and whisper to him to hide as well. However, Asher was blind and deaf to this. 

There was a look on his face that would have stopped anyone in their tracks. Never had Asher felt this worried and angry. Every negative emotion he had repressed in his other life when looking on the positive side was being pushed to the front of his mind. The kindness of this new world he had been pushed in could be taken from bim and he would not allow it. 

He was going to be a hero. He would protect those that valued the goodness in the world and there was no one that would break this while he still breathed. This was the resolve echoing within him as he moved toward the summer wear store. 

"Oooh, no wallet there girlie? How sad. But don't worry. We are kind. We can let a girlie like you pay in other ways." The robber with fingers like gun barrels had a disgusting smirk ion his face while the grey skinned man with him was tearing open cash registers and placing all the money in the bags with him. 

The grey skinned man seemed to be the muscle of the pair while the man with gun barrel fingers was the deterrent. Cara knew she couldn't move since Sammy was hidden behind her and moving would expose her under the counter. 

Cara was about to say that she didn't have her wallet and just hope for the best when there was a feeling on her leg behind her. Sammy was pushing her own wallet in to her back pocket slowly and with extreme care. 

When Cara realized this she made the act of pulling her wallet out while shaking slightly. That was to give them the impression she was too afraid to move before. She had learned this psychology technique in one of her law enforcement classes. It was one way to blend in if ever trapped in a dangerous situation. Apparently, people were less likely to attack someone afraid of them than someone defiant toward them. 

As Cara handed the man Sammy's wallet he looked a little less interested. "Shouldn't you be running away by now? Or are you too scared little girlie?" The cackling the man followed with was enough t make Cara feel sick. She wanted nothing more than to use her super power to deafen him then use every move possible to knock him out. But that would hurt everyone else. 

Sammy in the other hand was covering her mouth the best she could to keep her voice down. Laura and Jane had met together and watched from the opposite side of the room. They had found two siblings that had been separated from their parents and had been busy comforting them before the two robbers had shown up. 

"We could use another good hostage like you for later. Just come with us and we will be paid in full." The man with gun barrels as fingers was about to reach out to grab Cara and take her away when Asher stepped in side of the summer wear store. 

"I feel like my enemies should know not to touch my family like that." He spoke in a frigid tone. There was nothing but pure ice in his words. His face was a mask of calm and coolness but inside he was writing in rage. 

The grey skinned robber dropped the bag of money and valuables to deal with the kid he thought had walked in to try and be a hero. Against the wall or I make you. There is no choice kid." It was a simple order but before the robber could do anything he tripped on the clothing rack next to him. His fall was short but devastating. 

The crack that resounded through the room spoke of a fractured skull and major concussion. The entire room of customers held their breath while looking at the dumbfounded robber. The other robber had lost the muscle that protected him. He may have his own super power but he couldn't deal with close combat attacks. This made him panic. All the taunts gone with the wind. 

"What did you do kid!? Want these bullets pointed at you!?" The panic turned in tp a greater fear and the man with gun barrel fingers pointed them at Asher. Asher had drawn the full attention of this crazy Robber and only him. He was at the door and there was no one else around him. 

"You know it would be very bad luck if you tried to attack and missed every shot with that weird power of yours. It would be even worse luck if you were knocked out too." Asher gave a meaningful glance to his sister who was still trying to understand why he was there. 

"You asked for this brat. I will just add you to my tally!" The robber had a unique super power to make bullets in his body and fire them through his fingers. Each one fired a single bullet in Asher's direction. Yet, when he formed there was a single piece of dust that happened to be blown by the ventilation in the store.

The dust got in the robbers' eyes and caused his shots to run wild toward Asher. Since there was no one else around the only person that could have been hurt was Asher. But every single bullet hit the floor in front of him. They had missed by a decent margin and now the robber was trying to prepare another attack. 

Cara and Sammy didn't allow this though. Sammy passed the broken drawer to the cash register to Cara. Carra lifted it and with all her might, slammed it on to the back of the robber's head. Without anything but a thud, the robber hit the ground. Not only were the customers stunned that the one robber had fallen to the ground tripping. Now they were stunned the other had been foolish enough to get knocked out while ignoring someone behind him. 

"Cara, are you alright? Sammy texted saying that they were bothering you and I had to come over and make sure. I left Art in charge." she was walking around and making sure his sister wasn't harmed at all. Cara was just stunned by her brothers' reaction and reasoning for coming over. 

"You know, you're an idiot for coming over…."Cara brushed off Asher's hand and hugged him. "But an idiot that knows when to take a risk."m She wanted to reprimand him but knew that much worse could have happened if he didn't intervene. 

"If I just left you here alone to get attacked by some villain, would I even be a good person let alone brother?" Asher knew that this wasn't the right answer but at this moment it spoke of how he felt. 

"I know you guys are having a moment. But we need ti to tie them up somehow since there are still more around." Jane had rushed over and bit her tongue n Ashers' actions. She would scold him later. At the moment here attention was on the two unconscious villains.
