I’m stashed somewhere deep in a cave, my hands are literally tied with a rope, my mouth sealed with cellotape, and I’m in front of a fire waiting to be burned, cooked, and eaten by a wild bear. I’m seconds away from dying, and my entire life is flashing right before my very eyes. Who am I calling to save me?
Now there is a plethora of superheroes to choose from. And a man would probably be a safer choice, perhaps Superman—Henry Cavill, to be precise. He’ll serve as some eye candy while he saves me distress 😅. And then we might fall in love, get married, and ride off into the sunset.
Despite how amazing that would be, I’ll take a hard pass. My superhero would be … dun dun dunnnnn… Phoebe Thunderman 🙂😊. Why Phoebe?
Well, for starters, let’s see if we can analyze her powers.
Superhero: Phoebe Thunderman
Position: Firstborn daughter of Hank and Barb Thunderman, best friend to Cherry {don’t know her last name}
Age: 16 years (sounds accurate)
Superpowers: Telekinesis, Heat breath, Icy breath, Flight, Super strength
I mean, need I say more? First of all, if Phoebe were to save me, she literally would be in and out of the cave in less than 5 seconds. She’d appear, grab me, and disappear. No stress, no long talk. I literally could walk into any form of danger knowing that Phoebe existed and could save me in a heartbeat.
Then there is her personality. I feel like Phoebe and I would make great friends.
We’re both first daughters; we run the house when the parents aren’t around. She is smart, responsible, and loyal to her family and her friends. The perfect qualities needed for a strong friendship.
Now let’s look at how Phoebe would save. Knowing her character, she wouldn’t just rush into a situation she wasn’t prepared for. She would strategize. Probably find a way to get ahold of me while inside the cave.
If we were friends, she’d probably have my location on her phone or something like that. So finding it wouldn’t be a hassle. She would then fly to the cave, inspect the premises for potential danger, and then proceed into the cave.
She could use her telekinesis to appear in the main part of the cave where I’m tied up. On entering, she’d tell me to keep mute, and then I’d point towards the bear. When she gets close enough, she’d blast the bear with her cold breath and freeze the beast.
If we encounter any obstruction, hello, that’s why she’s a twin. She can call Max for backup. Although I doubt that Max will hurry to get there, we all know Max 😅.
But when he finally gets there on time, he could take on one bear, while the second frozen one, Phoebe, could rescue me; she’d grab me, and with telekinesis, she’d take me back to whereverI came from.
And just like that, the Thundermans save the day!
Although that sort of begs the question, how did I get there in the first place?
