Word Girl and the Seven Deadly Sins

********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
(Third Person P.O.V.)

After validating their parking and driving off in the RV, Genevieve led them to her house. Working in the fashion industry had made her quite wealthy so she lived in a nice condo. She would have just bought a mansion but

she lived by herself since the other deadly sins lived in different parts of the states.

"The thought of getting a mansion sounded appealing at the time but I would have been so lonely. Besides, then I would have to hire servants and maids and the like. I was brought up to do everything myself. But I do have a

couple of assistants. They are very helpful when it comes to helping me in the process of putting the clothes together. I don't normally tell people how I design my clothing but it's like this: I don't know how to draw to save

my life so I have been designing small items of clothing and clothing my barbie dolls in them. I use math when it comes to making it human sized. It's just so much easier to do it that way and I have been doing it that way for

years now." Said Genevieve as she talked with Jackie over a chocolate milkshake as they sat on her couch in the livingroom part.

"I have that same kind of problem too." Said Jackie. "I have trouble sometimes, drawing what I see in my head down on paper. My drawings suck but the actual clothes are good. I'm currently wearing one of my own

designs." Said Jackie as she indicated to the top she was wearing.

Genevieve looked it over. "Hmmm. It looks alright but perhaps I can give you some tips for how to match thread to the color of the fabric. While the choice matches a lot it's not quite the same shade. If you're having trouble

finding that exact shade then try more than one sewing store or try online. I buy threads online sometimes. It saves me from getting mobbed by the paparazzi. Oh, the bad part of being famous. You get no privacy."

Meanwhile...

Bob and Sam were comparing their arms to see who was the hairiest.

Tobey and Becky were outside on the balcony that looked over the city

"So...." Said Tobey to Becky. "Have you decided what community college you're going to?" He asked her as he sipped on his shake.

Becky sighed. "They're both such great options and so close to home but I'm going to have to go with the one that is closer to home. It's just more convenient for me and it would let me get to the city faster to fight crime.

Aside from that, they have a great English program." Becky twirled her straw around. "I just wish I didn't have to be a hero full time, then maybe I could go to state college or a college that would have dorms. I know that it's

my duty to protect the city from evil villains but.......I sometimes wish I was a normal human without superpowers. Am I being selfish?" She asked as she looked Tobey in the eyes.

Tobey looked a bit sad, almost guilty. "No, I suppose not. I don't know what to tell you in this case because I was never a hero or a protector like you are. I'm sorry for all those times that I was...difficult as a child. But you

must understand that......I didn't know how else to get the attention of the beautiful super hero with her flowing, ebony locks and adorable red suit." He then got serious and turned to look at her with some tears in his eyes. "I

was going to tell you at your graduation party but then Bob thought he got drunk and well.....I got a full scholarship to the state university. I'm going for a major in engineering. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner."

Becky looked hurt. "So, we're going to be apart during our college years?" She asked him in a sad voice. "I mean, I knew that we weren't going to be going to the same college because we want to persue different careers

but.....it's not fair." Becky soon began full on crying. "I just know that the long distance might either make or break us but...." She sniffled. " I need to take some time to think about it." With that, she transformed into Word

Girl and flew away.

Tobey groaned. "Bob is going to kill me for having upset her. I could have at least told her while we were on the road. But at least I didn't leave it until the end of the trip or I'm sure she would have flung me into the sun or

left me on the moon." He said quietly. He heard the sliding door open and soon Jackie joined him out on the balcony.

"Hey, is everything ok? I thought I heard Becky crying and..." She looked around. "She flew off somewhere didn't she?" She asked him.

Tobey just sighed and nodded his head. "She can get so emotional sometimes. But that's a reason why I love her. She's so passionate about things."

"What exactly did you tell her that made her so upset?" She asked Tobey, her eyes full of concern.

"I told her what I should have told her since her graduation party." He told her everything that he said and Becky's response.

"Wow. No wonder she is upset. But don't get discouraged. Maybe the villains will want different things and move on to things that aren't doing villain related things. I mean you started off as a villain but you've changed now

haven't you?" Jackie said, in an attempt to cheer him up from his somber mood.

Tobey scoffed. "Pffft. Right...Maybe they will move to different states or something and Becky will transfer over to the college I'm attending for the second semester." It could happen...thanks to a certain author...

Jackie and Tobey looked at the author. "You would really do that?" He asked. Well it's my story that I'm writing, isn't it?

"I keep forgetting how powerful you are." Said Jackie to the author.

Haha, you're right about that. I created you and your entire family didn't I?

Jackie and Tobey turned to each other and then back to the author.

"Shouldn't we go after Becky?" Asked Jackie.

"Yes, it would be good for the plot, wouldn't it?" Replied Tobey as he rubbed his chin in thought. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a remote. After pressing it once, a robot soon appeared as if out of the blue.

Jackie looked at him in bewilderment. "How?" She asked, pointing to the robot.

Tobey chuckled. "You keep forgetting who I am and what I can do." Said Tobey as he pressed another button on the remote. The robot extended it's hand and Tobey climbed onto it.

"Let's go." He said as he extended his left hand to Jackie who reluctantly took it.

After getting on to the robot's hand, Tobey tested out the verbal commands. "Robot, take us around the city and do not crush any buildings or civilians on the way...better yet, we should take to the skies."

Jackie looked horrified for a second. "Has that feature been tested? Is it safe?" She asked him in worry.

"Not....exactly....." Tobey murmured under his breath but she still heard him.

"Oh hell no!" She wanted to get off now.

Tobey chuckled a bit. "I'm just kidding, I haven't exactly gotten a runway to take off on but it can slightly float off the ground seeing as there is far too many buildings for it to just try to avoid." The robot began walking at first

but then it softly floated over a building and then it got back onto the ground to resume walking.

Jackie was clutching her chest. "I don't know if I'm ever going to get used to that. She then remembered that Tobey chuckled at her. She punched him in the arm.

"Ow!" Exclaimed Tobey as he rubbed his arm. "You may not possess super strength but that still hurt!" He glared at her a bit but then stopped because the robot had stopped.

They both looked up and saw Becky..I mean Word Girl resting on a tall building. It was a skyscraper.

Jackie placed her hand on his shoulder. "You should be the one to go get her down. She listens to you."

Tobey hesitantly had his robot move him close enough to where he could just jump off the hand and onto the building next to her.

As soon as he thought that he was going to make it Tobey slipped and he fell 20 feet before Word Girl caught him in her arms.

The fall knocked the wind out of him and seeing his girlfriend looking so concerned made his heart skip a beat.

Word Girl brought him back to the robot hand next to Jackie. "Are you ok?" Both Jackie and Word Girl asked at the same time.

Tobey looked to both of them before nodding. "Yes. Thank you so much Be...er Word Girl." It was then that they noticed people gathering around and filming the event with their phones.

"Oh hell, this is going to end up on the evening news isn't it?" Said Tobey, but he spoke too soon. A news helicopter was flying in their direction.

They all heard someone saying on an air horn. "Whoever you are, please do not crush us with your giant robot. What are your demands?"

Tobey quickly looked to Word Girl. "Save me." He mouthed. Word Girl quickly defeated the robot by pretending to throw a few punched but in reality he just made it invisible and then shrunk it down.

He was pretty smart about it this time as Tobey had a device on him that would destroy the content they had just filmed with their devices so everyone who took videos of the giant robot could not upload it and then their

content was deleted from their devices. Word Girl flew them back safely. She carried Jackie and Tobey clung onto her back.

Tobey had managed to do all of this before any of it was posted online. He knew that if his mother knew he was still building robots she would not be pleased. They made it back in no time. Tobey turned to the author. "It's

more of a media scrambler really but it might destroy a few things too."

"So it's kind of like that one inator that Dr Doof built in Phineas & Ferb that would delete everything of something from media and from people's brains?" Asked Jackie as she kept tugging her skirt down so she wouldn't

accidentally flash Tobey.

"This is completely different. I only set it to erase these images from the media. People will still remember it even if they don't have physical proof that it existed." Explained Tobey as he held onto his girlfriend a bit tighter.

"T-tobey, don't grip me so hard...y-you're choking me." Said Word Girl as she struggled to breath.

Tobey loosened his grip. "Sorry."

They made it back safely.
