Johnny Storm got up and brushed his teeth, he slipped into a very hot shower...Being The Human Torch did have its strong points. After finishing up his shower, Johnny changed into his team uniform.

'Johnny! Get down here now!' Sue Storm called from downstairs

Johnny loved his sister, but in all honesty ever since she became pregnant. Johnny had thought she had become hell on earth to live with. Had it not been for her husband Reed Richards, Johnny would probably be the only one to deal with the backlashes of a hormonal pregnant woman.

'I'm coming! Give me six minutes!' Johnny shouted back.

Johnny fixed his hair and did a quick mirror check. He was feeling sort of slow this morning, as if he had no energy. But that was too be expected cause he was a superhero who was actually human. Johnny headed down the steps, but halfway down; he felt dizzy. He felt the world was spinning around, he tried to continue going downstairs. His head started throbbing, as if something was attacking his brain. He gripped the rail, and then, after only a few moments of standing collapsed at the bottom of the stairs.

Sue heard the fall and went to see if Johnny was okay. He was very much alive, but in alot of pain. Every inch of his body was aching, like if he moved a finger. His whole body would start spazzing.

'Reed! Reed!' Sue called for working husband.

Reed Richards came powering back from the home lab and saw Sue kneeling down to her younger brother. He joined her at Johnny's side, and put a gentle hand on his back. Johnny yelled in pain.

'Sorry! Sorry!' Reed apolgized frantically to his brother-in-law.

'Reed, what's wrong with me? Everything aches' Johnny moaned

'I know..I know.' Reed whispered.

Sue laid her hand on Johnny's shoulder and the other on his brow. She looked up at Reed, her eyes basically said 'help him.'

'Johnny do you think you can walk?' Reed asked the weak man.

'I don't think so. You might have to drag me-' Johnny joked

Reed gave a faint smile, he had to keep up his humor. Because that would keep Johnny alert. He lifted Johnny as much as he could without hurting him, and took him back upstairs and placed him in his bed. Sue was following close behind, cell phone in hand.

'Don't call the hospital.' Reed warned.

'He's sick! We can't help him, Reed. But doctors can' Sue explained.

'Help him? They'll paralyze him...The press won't leave him alone, and do god knows what to him' Reed cried

'And what will you do to him, Reed? Poke him with test tubes 24/7?' Sue asked hastitly

'You know I won't do that to him, Sue. Ben maybe, but not me' Reed said with a joking smile.

'You can be a bigger ass than Johnny when you are like this' Sue mumbled.

Sue went to Johnny's bedside, Reed nervously ran his fingers through his hair and headed downstairs. He wanted to help Johnny in anyway possible, and if that meant poking and prodding at him with science...then he had to.
