"I don't mean to burst your bubble. You may be a superhero, but this isn't the type of problem you'd be able to fix." An unexpected happening in the Carbunkle household causes Brad and Tuck to be away from school & Jenny for a week. When Brad and Jenny finally talk, Jenny leaves, shameful and overwhelmed with a feeling she must come to terms with. Rated T for darker themes.

1. Prologue

"Look...Jen...I don't mean to burst your bubble. You may be a superhero, but this isn't the type of problem you'd be able to fix."

"Isn't that what heroes are for - being able to fix everything?"

...

"I failed, Brad. Just face it. I'm a huge failure. How can you even stand to still be my friend?"

"Jenny, cool it. These things happen and sometimes it's better that we don't interfere anyways. Besides, you're not a failure. You're the town's favorite high-tech superhero!"

"Maybe. But trust me... I never wanted to be."
