Ever Wanted To Be Invisible?

What do you do when you trip on the stairs in a public place? Your cheeks turn into rosey flesh and your body soaks itself in its own toxic stench. Feeling the piercing fixated eyes of the surrounding population. The echoing snickering haunts the bloody mind. Wishing only to drift into nothingness, like the wind. Not being seen but occaisionally heard. Invisibility is a super power generically expressed by the teenage and pre-teen eras. But combining super powers is not usually recieved by minds. Ultimately, the super power I believe would be the most fascinating would be the combination of invisibility and telekinesis. Creating force-fields to protect the human race from destruction such as car crashes and explosions (like in Fantastic 4: Invisi-Girl). Saving my fellow humans sounds like an interesting idea but in idea nonetheless. Superheroes are nothing more than an idea created decades ago. Having super-powers would be an incredible scientific acheivement but we are no where close to where we need to be in order to create superheroes. Wouldnt that be great? To create force-fields and contain fire inside a sphere? Or manipulating time to slow down when you want to look or feel something longer. Creating attacks that are related to light and love, to be psychic, to manipulate fire or lightening... Who wouldnt want to have powers like that? If I could chose any superpower... I couldnt chose just one. Choosing one superpower is like choosing between 2 undersireable things. Its not possible.
