Marcus And Winston Wick In Convergence Of Marvel And DC

Year 2002

SHIELD headquarters

-So, still no trace of them. (Fury)

-No, sir, as if they are really ghosts, they have vanished into thin air. And thanks to their absence, New York is again infested with underworld gangs. Though they are still taking hands off attitude towards poor families, which is a good thing if you ask me. (Agent Hill)

-Agent Romanoff and Coulson made any progress?

-Apparently they did find out some clue. Following rumors, they reached a woman named Cecilia Cassandra. Coincidentally, she is rumored to be saved by some teenager from a molesting Irish thug at the night when the boogeyman twins first struck. But she adamantly refused to speak about the topic, no amount of "legal" questioning was enough to open her mouth. They also did find out the thug. But he is, "conveniently", mentally unstable. Only thing they got out of his mouth is "He would cut off my d.i.c.k if I say anything."

-Huhhhh.... any word from Diana?

-She, fortunately, did made some progress. She didn't share the details, but we are expecting some results from her soon. Though, I doubt she will share with us after she would find what she expect to find.

-She is a special existence. We are helpless with her just as we are helpless with those kids. We are fortunate that she stands with us, and having a means to contact those kids would be enough for now.

When Diana first started the search, she had very little to go on. She only knew, they are twin brothers, the elder is called "Marc" while the younger one's name is still yet to be known. Even their exact age is not known. From their height and voice analysis, they are expected to be 13 - 14 years old. They are extremely strong, probably stronger than her. They can fly. They can breath ice. They can fight better than the best warriors in Themyscira, without using their superhuman strength and speed. While they are truly gifted, they are very proficient in hiding them. So, she targeted the time they were not so proficient in hiding their tracks, when their gifts just started to develop.

She searched for stories about little children doing miracle. But that proved be to quite unhelpful, as most of them turned out to be false rumor or hoax in intention of earning some money. Searching by name of twins didn't help either, as no twin with elder one named Marc fit their target, everyone of them is clean in New York city.

Just as she was exasperated with the wild goose chase, she got the lead from a completely unexpected source. She was attending the convocation ceremony of ESU as a guest faculty member of Anthropology department. At the ceremony a pair of special graduation degree was provided.

A pair of twins graduated from ESU with 3 majors in 2 years.

Marcus and Winston Kent. Hailed form Smallville, Kansas. Showed exceptional academics from childhood, to be honest, they are still in their childhood, though look like 15-16 years old now. Nothing special if you overlook their overwhelming genius mind. Surprisingly the no specialty seemed too odd. It should have been on the news of such geniuses, but no such thing. If you look at their social interaction, you expect them to get bullied as they are studying with an age group which are way above them, but none in middle school or high school ever touched them. No one knows why.

She did found some rumors about them doing some freaky stuff. Like bumping into a boy double their size and it was the bigger boy who got knocked down. One occasion was that younger brother, Winston, jumped on a tree 15 meter high to save a stuck cat, when they were 7, though she couldn't validate the rumors, as only one saw them doing it was a small girl at age of 4, and apparently she forgot most of the incident.

One particular incident was very eye catchy as it is rumored that they saved a drowning a school bus by pulling it out of lake b.a.r.e handed then pulling out a boy out of that lake from under 20 feet deep water. This particular boy neither admitted, nor denied the incident. He just told me to talk to his parents and his parents just showed me the miracle boys' house.

What greeted her was a ordinary woman, doing ordinary farm work.

Diana POV:

-For a child, you are surprisingly hard to find.

I asked as I felt a presence arriving and lock at me as I was standing in front of grave of Jonathan Kent. A sweet voice floated in my ears.

-I am surprised that someone actually managed to find out about us. I am pretty sure we were thorough covering our tracks when we exposed our ability.

-You were. I would never have managed to find you if I didn't attend the convocation ceremony. So, what made you stop what you were doing. You were doing a great job if you ask me. You destroyed the New York underworld in two months, that is without using your gifts. What is holding you back now?

I asked as I turned to him who was standing by a tree with a slight smile that is not smile. He looked like 15-16 years old. They sure m.a.t.u.r.e faster physically it seems. Though you absolutely wouldn't expect such an expression from a teenager, much less from a child. He walked up to me without looking at me, fixing his gaze at his father's grave.

-Our father died in front of us, we held all the power in the world to save him. Yet he himself chose not to be saved as it would expose our identity at that time. He feared that if the world come to know our identity, they would fear us, reject us and even try to harm us. There is also concern of a parent, but was he overthinking? I don't think so. Just look at the reaction after that night. They even thought we are trying pose as gods. So, tell me, Diana, princess of Themyscira. Do you think my father is wrong? Do you think, the world is ready for us?

I couldn't answer him for a long time. Just as he was about to leave, I went towards him and said,

-I don't know who is right and who is wrong, as right and wrong is a relative concept. But I can say you this, the world is never ready for anything. It only accepts what it can be believe in, what it can place hope upon.

He stopped for moment and said with a slight smile,

-Then may be it is us who is not ready yet.

Saying that he started to float. I asked to his retreating back,

-At least tell me your true name....

For the first time he looked at me and said,

-When the time is right, you would know everything. Patience has its own rewards.

Saying that he flew away.
