Chapter 1

Okay, let's recap:

Eventually, after this long day and the 2 large Doritos packets he'd eaten, Lucas decided to go home to rest and put his groceries away. When he'd arrived, he opened the doors and took his mask off but he didn't realise that his daughter was there watching in shock as he took it off.

"No flipping way" she exclaimed. His eyes widened

"Evie, I can explain." he said uneasily 'Oh shoot, I'm so dead.' he thought...

Now, back to the story:

"Why didn't you tell me this, Dad, " Evie cried delightedly, "This is so cool, wait 'til I tell all my friends!" She was so happy that her Dad was, in her opinion, the coolest hero ever! "Evie, you can't tell anyone this. I didn't tell you because I wanted to protect you, there are many villains that would do anything to destroy me, " Lucas cried, nervously munching on his Doritos for support. Evie was immediately disheartened, she wanted to show off her father so that she could get people to like her and...more friends. She didn't have many. She quickly forced a smile and uttered , "Okay, father, I won't tell anyone for the sake of our safety." Lucas looked at her and grinned ecstatically, "Thank you, I'm glad you agree. Now, I can finally use the door instead of the window." Evie sighed, "Is that really what you're happy about, using the door? If you'd told me sooner then you'd have the luxury of using the door." "I know, I know. Hey, do you want to watch a movie?" "Yeah, sure," she replied still unhappy that she couldn't tell anyone.

After a three-hour marathon of watching two films, they were both exhausted. "Time for bed, Evie, " Lucas muttered tiredly. "But what about you?" Evie questioned. "I'm fine, being a hero doesn't mean I get away with paperwork, does it?" "Oh, I suppose not." "Goodnight!" "'Night, Dad!" she fled to her room and flopped onto her bed. She closed her eyes and thought, 'It wouldn't hurt if I just tell one person, right?"

Beep! Beep! Beep! Evie groaned at her ruby red alarm, "Okay. Okay, I'm up." Swiftly, she slipped out of her bed and hurried off to the bathroom. She could hear water rushing in the bathroom. She slapped her face in annoyance. 'Ughhhhh, dad's in there, he takes ages in there!' she thought, irritated. Bang! Bang! Bang! She struck her fist to the door angrily. "Dad, get out! Please!" She screamed at him. "Five more minutes, darling, " he shouted. We all know that infamous lie, don't we? Evie leaned against the door dejectedly, 'He'll be out in like, half an hour, won't he?"

Half an hour later, just as Evie predicted, Lucas finally exited the bathroom. "Finally! That was definitely not five minutes, father." Lucas just stuck out his tongue and marched off to his room. "He's so childish, " Evie told herself, watching him walk off. "Anyways, my turn!" Evie ran into the bathroom as if she were to run a marathon. She was planning on having a nice, hot soak in the bath tub but thanks to her father she'll have to have a ten minutes bath, five minutes to change and she'll have about five minutes to eat breakfast. Oh well, this is the daily life of Evie Crome.

After her quick bath and changing into her uniform, she went to the kitchen to make her breakfast. 'What should I have? Hmmmmm,' she thought to herself as she observed the contents inside the cupboard, 'What about this? Chocolate munchies? Yes, that sounds nice.' She poured in the cereal into the bowl and added some milk, then checked the time. 'Oh no, I have four minutes left, I'll have to speed eat.' Rapidly, she ate her breakfast, spoonful after spoonful until her cereal was demolished. She looked at the clock yet again, she was right on time. She grabbed her bag and dashed out the door. "Bye, Dad, I love you." Lucas smiled, "Bye, I love you too honey!" Fortunately, Evie managed to make it on time.

After Evie's first two classes, it was now time for break. Evie sat on the bench with her three friends Jenna, Olivia and Isla. They were talking about how much they hated science and those nice boots they saw at the clothes store. 'Maybe, I could just tell Olivia that my father is a hero,' Evie thought, 'It wouldn't hurt to just tell one person.' "Hey Olivia, can I talk to you in private, please?" Evie inquired. "Yes, of course," Olivia responded. When they left the group, Evie enthusiastically burst out, "Guess what? My Dad is hero, in fact, he is the hero 'Levitator'! I just found out about it yesterday! Can you believe it? He tried to hide it from me to keep me safe!" Olivia's eyes widened in shock, "Wow, that's amazing!" "Yeah, it is isn't it but you have to promise to keep it a secret." "Okay, I promise." 'I'm glad I finally told someone, I'm sure Olivia won't tell anyone. She is my best friend after all, I trust her' Evie thought but little did she know, telling Olivia was a grave mistake.

It was the end of the school day, Olivia stood out the gates waiting for her parents to pick her up. "Bye, Olivia!" Evie waved as she walked her route home. "Goodbye, Evie!" Olivia waved back. Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her, it was her car so she entered, "Hello, Daddy!" "Hey, sweetie!" her father, a male with black hair and green eyes smiled at her. "I now know the identity of 'Levitator'," she announced proudly. Her father's face darkened, he smiled a twisted smile, "Who is it?" "None other than Lucas Crome!" "Oh, that girl you hang out with Evangeline's father, " he asked. "Yes, Dad, " she replied. "Great job, my sweet, little villainess, " he ruffled her hair delightedly, "Defeating Levitator will be much easier than I thought. " He grinned maliciously and laughed evilly. Olivia smiled with joy, if her father's happy then she's happy too. 'I'll be the best villain there is, ' she thought cheerfully.
