Dear readers,

This idea was totally random & I'm sorry if this fic disappointed you. If this is gonna make any sense at all, please read my stories Concealment & Redeemer. It's better if you have also read Breaking Dawn in the Twilight series, for this all happens after the whole book ends. Renesmee (Jacob's girlfriend) has gone on a vacation with her whole family. Jacob chooses to stay with the werewolves to keep watch over Forks, but journeys a little further one day to get special supplies for his car repair work. Here goes…

* Azula aka the Blue Dragon is my OC character used in my Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes & Avatar: he Last Airbender crossover fics, & Johnny's loyal girlfriend. She's mentioned but does not appear here.

A hot afternoon, in the garage of a rather aged, wooden-built car repair shop…

Kevin is replacing the tyres of his car after buying the new ones direct from the store. Suddenly there's the sound of a raging bike braking behind him.

Jacob: "You're doing the lug nut thing all wrong."

Kevin doesn't answer.

Jacob: "Hey!" (jokingly gets him to notice him) "I said you ain't doing it right, genius."

Kevin: (turns to him) "Oh, really? Make me."

Jacob: "Never mind."

A flashy orange & black car speeds by all of a sudden - then brakes right by the building. A figure clad in a hot rod jacket & single-striped pants steps out of the vehicle, then enters through the main entrance.

Jacob: "Whoa, check out who's just walked through those doors."

Kevin: "It's just Johnny Storm. So what?"

Jacob follows Johnny into the store, to find him enquiring at the front counter.

Johnny: (looking around) "Hello! Anyone here who can help?"

Jacob: (behind him) "It's lunch break. No one but us. Hi, I'm Jacob. Or Jake, rather…"

Johnny: "Hey. Who's that over there?"

He is able to see Kevin working on his ride, for the main office & garage aren't separated by any walls or doors.

Kevin: (grumpy, looking at the other two) "Just call me Kevin."

Jacob: (turns back to Johnny) "So what's the Human Torch doing all the way at the edge of New York City - in some microscopic car repair shop?"

Johnny: "I'm here to sell a car."

Jacob: "WHAT?"

Kevin: "Pffft, you outta your mind?"

Johnny: "I thought that by visiting the farthest shop I could reach, I'd give it to someone who'd really need the parts."

Jacob: "I'd think that of ALL sane people the three of us would treat every one of our cars as family, or at least as if they were a delicious meal on wheels!"

Johnny: "I dunno about you, but I've been thinking..seven cars is me going too far."

Kevin: (stops working with his wrench momentarily) "Dude, you seem pretty different. Like you had a life change or something like that."

Johnny: (sheepish & scratching his head) "Yeah. Remember the news about me getting beat up?"

Jacob: "Hate the news. It bores me outta my nerves."

Kevin: "High five…We just know the Fantastic Four'll always be there to save the day. Period."

Johnny: "Anyways, my life's been a wreck really. Right up till -" "- I visited a church."

Jacob: (teasing manner) "Holy moley."

Kevin: (more sarcasm) "That's radical."

Johnny: "Guys, c'mon! Why seven cars for only one of me? Besides, the less cars I have, the less people are likely to come after them which spells less stress on me."

Kevin: "I guess. If that's what you think is right."

Johnny: "It's the feeling that someone out there needs something you own. & you just give it away instead of having the pressure of hanging onto it."

Kevin: "Uhuh." (steals a glance at Johnny's Corvette Z06 outside) "You need somebody to pull that baby apart. Lemme do it, I wanna see whatcha got."

They make their way outside to inspect the Z06; Kevin immediately flips open the bonnet to inspect the engine. Soon they all decide to push the vehicle into the garage.

Johnny: (shy dreamy expression on his face) "Maybe we can talk about our girlfriends while we're at it."

Jacob: (chuckles wildly) "Talk about random. So, how's your sweetheart, the Blue Dragon? Heard 'about you two being great together."

Johnny: "She's the best. The best I've ever had & will have - you have no idea how she saved my life: when I bled out on that street."

Jacob: "She must be hotter than you! I mean, not that I like you, or anything."

Kevin: "That's a sweet V8 you have here, Torch. I could strip it to get myself some parts."

Johnny: "Knock yourself out."

Jacob: (motions to Kevin) "Save some of that for me."

Kevin: Yeah, I get it. What about you, sunshine?" (stares at Jacob deliberately) "The love of your life keep you this talkative all the time?"

Jacob: "Who, Nessie? Nahhhh. I've been enjoying life since I met her. No offense, Johnny. Ever heard of imprinting?"

Johnny: "Nope. What's it mean really?"

Jacob: "It's when you see someone, whom you're not just attracted to. After the first time you set eyes on her, it's no longer gravity holding you to the earth. She is. You just know it for a fact & that's the final clue to prove you've imprinted."

Johnny: "What happened between me & Azula sounds like that, only much slower."

Kevin: "So what happened between you & Nessie? Pre-arranged marriage?"

Jacob: "Enough of that! How about your story, Kevin? Talk."

Kevin: "Gwen & I have got talking to do. We need to settle some differences. Other than that, we're cool about most things."

Johnny: "Do you have superpowers?"

Kevin: (smiles before touching the car's surface) "Energy absorption." (changes his body into the same composition & colour as that of the car)

Johnny: "Cool enough. How 'bout you, Jake? Got powers?"

Jacob: "You know what? As if by coincidence, I do. But - it's hard to explain."

Kevin: (enthusiastic) "No need to explain. Let's SEE 'em."

Jacob: "I hear something." (suddenly looks alert & agitated)

Kevin: (rolls eyes) "Pfft. As if we can't."

Jacob: "I wasn't kidding, Kev. Something from outside's giving me a bad vibe."

Jake heads outside first, with the other two trailing behind him slowly. They behold a strange form on the other far side of the road. Unexpectedly the shadow appears to pound the rocky ground with an ebony energy blast. The force spreads through the soil till it reaches Jake, & sends a shockwave through his body till he hurtles backward into Johnny.

Johnny: (helping Jacob up & regaining footing) "Maybe it was better that the shop guys stay away at their lunch break…"

Kevin: (stares on at the dark figure) "That ain't just 'something': I know this guy. His name's Darkstar & whenever he appears, he means business."
