Starlight and Free Man

"Hey! Where are you going!?"

"I remember now..."

"I have an underwater meeting, I can't keep the fish waiting too long."

The Deep was talking nonsense, he didn't care what he was saying, he only cared about getting away from this damned devil in front of him as quickly as possible.

"What!?"

Starlight was a little confused. Just now, The Deep had said he would take her to tour the Seven's hall, and now he was retreating?!

"Your name is Starlight, right?"

Before Starlight could question The Deep further, Jupiter stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked in front of her.

"Oh, you are..."

"Oh my god! I know you, I saw your promotional video, you're Free Man."

Starlight looked Jupiter up and down, then covered her mouth in amazement.

"It seems you know me."

Jupiter chuckled lightly at her words.

He had to admit Vought's efficiency was high. The promotional video filmed in the morning was edited and uploaded to major websites in the afternoon. At the same time, all advertisements for The Invisible Man outside were taken down and replaced with Jupiter.

"Of course, I know you. Are you really faster than A-Train and tougher than the Invisible Man?"

Starlight asked Jupiter excitedly.

"Of course."

Jupiter nodded gently.

"Do you want to see my superpowers?"

Jupiter suddenly thought of something and asked Starlight. 🎄🐼 69sHùx.ČόＭ 😾🐟

"What did you say?"

Starlight's heart was pounding, and she clearly didn't understand what Jupiter meant.

"Follow me..."

Jupiter, with a sunny smile, didn't care if Starlight understood or not. He put his arm around her slender waist.

"What are you doing!?"

Starlight was startled by Jupiter suddenly pulling her into his embrace.

She looked up at Jupiter's handsome face, her cheeks flushing slightly. Although Jupiter was handsome, strong, and exuded confidence, perfectly matching her ideal image of a future boyfriend, it didn't mean she was a casual person, nor did it mean that anyone with a handsome face could easily hold her.

"Don't blink!"

Jupiter ignored Starlight's struggles, maintaining his smile.

"Boom..."

The next second, accompanied by a gust of wind, Jupiter, holding Starlight, flew out of the window that Jupiter had opened beforehand.

"My god..."

Starlight, who had been struggling, looked at the traffic flowing beneath them and tightly hugged Jupiter's body, her cheek pressed against his chest. Now, no matter who asked her to let go, she absolutely would not.

"Fly a little higher."

Jupiter took Starlight above the clouds...

"So beautiful..."

Starlight gazed at the blue sky, white clouds, and the setting sun, looking somewhat entranced. Everything before her seemed unreal, as beautiful as an oil painting. 🐠😳 🐸🐨

"Whoosh..."

Just as Starlight was staring blankly at the beautiful scenery, gaining a clear understanding of nature's grandeur once again, a white passenger plane cut through the clouds and headed towards them.

"Heh, we're lucky."

Jupiter chuckled softly as he looked at the plane.

"What?"

After hearing Jupiter's voice, Starlight's frozen brain finally started working again.

"Come on, relax. Smile at the plane's windows, wave, and greet the people we're protecting."

Jupiter, step by step, taught the Starlight in his arms how to be a qualified Superhero: always smile when encountering people.

"Oh, okay!"

Following Jupiter's instructions, Starlight immediately showed a typical Free Nation naive, sweet smile towards the plane's windows and waved gently.

"It's a Superhero..."

"It's Free Man, the new member of the Seven, and Starlight! Oh my god! Free Man can really fly!"

"Take pictures! Take pictures!"

On the passenger plane, travelers who were yawning while looking out the window immediately took out their phones and started snapping photos when they noticed Jupiter and Starlight.

A few seconds later, the plane flew past Starlight and Jupiter, heading in the original direction...

"Let's go, I'll show you around properly..."

Before Starlight could recover from the joy of greeting someone for the first time as a Superhero, Jupiter put his arm around her and they once again weaved through the clouds...

An hour later, the two gently landed at the entrance of Vought International's building.

"Oh my gosh, this is my first time, my first time flying in the sky. I mean, not flying like in an airplane, but like a dream, flying in the sky out of nowhere..."

"I saw the clouds, I saw the birds, I feel like the sun isn't that far away anymore!"

At the entrance of Vought International's building, Starlight hugged Jupiter tightly, she was incredibly excited, feeling like her heart was about to leap out of her chest.

"Haha, I know I was just as excited as you the first time I flew, but Miss Starlight, my dear, could you perhaps get down from my shoulders first? I don't mind, but after all..."

Jupiter's gaze swept around, indicating that many people had gathered around them.

"Oh, of course, haha, um, I was just excited, you know..."

Starlight immediately jumped down from Jupiter. She looked at the people around her, her cheeks flushed, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I understand."

Jupiter, ever the gentleman, expressed his understanding of Starlight's behavior.

"Um, thank you for taking me flying. This is something I never even dreamed of. Thank you..."

Starlight stood with her hands behind her back, leaning forward slightly. Her graceful figure, outlined by her tight suit, formed beautiful curves, completely displayed before Jupiter's eyes.

"You're welcome. We're teammates, and it's our duty to introduce our abilities to our teammates."

Jupiter indicated that it was his responsibility and she didn't need to thank him.

"No, no, no, but I still want to thank you!"

Starlight waved her hand after hearing Jupiter's words.

"I mean, we could grab coffee sometime, or breakfast, or lunch, go shopping, see a movie..."

The more Starlight spoke, the more she realized her topic was going off track. Her face was as red as a ripe apple.

"Oh my god! I don't have many friends, really very few. I'm not good at, and I don't really know how to invite people..."

Starlight covered half her face with one hand, lacking the courage to look at Jupiter. She felt utterly mortified at that moment.

"Of course, no problem! Don't you know? We're partners from now on."

"We'll be working together from now on, so we'll have plenty of time to have coffee, eat meals, watch movies, and do anything else we want to do together."

Jupiter faced Starlight with a warm smile, like sunshine from the heavens.

"Oh, of course, we definitely can together..."

"Do everything we want to do together."

Starlight finished speaking, her face flushed, and she walked somewhat absently towards the elevator.

"Heh heh..."

Jupiter chuckled softly as he watched Starlight's retreating back, looking as if she were drunk without having had a drop to drink.

Jupiter knew that Starlight, that silly sweet girl, was likely experiencing the 'bridge effect' from flying in the sky. All the hormones secreted in her body, the resulting emotions, had all gotten mixed up and she mistook them for feelings of affection for Jupiter. Of course, this was exactly what Jupiter had planned.

Before Homelander completely broke free from his inner shackles and went on a rampage, Jupiter always needed something to do. And there was nothing more suitable as an appetizer than a silly sweet girl like Starlight.

As for The Deep, who had no brains, no charm, and could do nothing but 'fish' - motherf*cker, in a few days people would see the Superhero The Deep rotting in the sewers.

And as for why it had to be the sewers, it was because Jupiter believed that sewers were the only place for rotten fish and shrimp.
