Nightmares and Dreamscapes - Kal/Buck Angst 11
The scene shifted and Kalypso looked around. The buildings of New York had been destroyed and turned into rubble. The familiar landmarks and buildings were gone. Something had destroyed one of the greatest cities on Earth.

Kal looked around. Where were the Avengers? Why hadn't they stopped this destruction? Where were the Defenders? The X-Men? Any of the other hero teams? Why had they let this happen?

People moved about in the rubble and ruins and Kal desperately sought a familiar face. An elderly gentleman came up to her. He smiled and said her name, but she didn't recognize him. He said her name again and Kal took a closer look at him. "Jack?" No. It couldn't be Jack. Jack wasn't old and this man looked like he was pushing one hundred.

He smiled and nodded. Before he could speak again he started to age more and started turning into dust. "Nooo!" she yelled and reached out a hand. Jack turned completely into dust by the ravages of time and blew away with the wind. Kal's gut twisted into a knot.

There was laughing behind her and she turned to see her uncle standing there. The Mad Titan laughed and destroyed another building.

Kal reached out with her mind to find any Avenger left alive.

	Kal kissed his cheek. "That's what makes you a great leader. I better get going. I should check to see what trouble my mother is getting into. I haven't heard from her in a bit and when that happens it usually means something big." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That gets a smile, and a nod. "Alright, you take care. Say hi to your mother for me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Will do. See you later." With that Kal wandered out of the kitchen. (Reply to this)(Parent)
