It has been quite a lengthy day for Rick. Spent the day at a local car shop fixing and washing cars. After a day's work, he strolled home and into the shower. When he finished removing the grease and oils from his body, Rick jumped onto the bed, reached for his phone on his desk and texted the girl two floors below him.
Hey gorgeous, how was your day? – Rick
ah, good. yours handsome? xx -kb
Good. I'm glad you're happy. & Fun, fixed cars, washed cars, anything to do with cars. By the way it's ruggedly handsome. :) –Rick

Before falling asleep, he gave his fire truck sitting on his night stand a glance. It was apparently a gift from his father. Rick never properly met him. His father left him when he was only a few months old. The odd thing about the truck tonight was it was glowing like the sun.
Rick bounced up, made an awfully confused face. "How the heck is this thing glowing when it's not even a lamp or running on batteries?"
To his curiosity, he reached over to grab a hold of it. The truck stop glowing, but except Rick, out of nowhere, fell into a gigantic tunnel sliding into a hole.

"Mom, where are my Beats?" Kate shouted across the loft.
"I don't know sweetie! Where did you put it last?" Johanna hollered back from the laundry room.
"On the kitchen counter. I think."
"Oh the white headphones?"
"Yes Mommy."
"In your room, darling."
"Oh thanks Mom."
Kate found her Beats lying next to the box with the puppet she received from her parents for her 8th birthday. There was light coming from the box. "Huh? When did I put a flash-" The box open, Kate caught her puppet and fell into a hole just as Rick did.

"SHIT. OW," Kate mumbled rubbing her head. "Where am I? Uh hello? Any- RICK! OH MY GOD."
"Ugh…huh? Ow," He choked as a person was nudging the heck out of him "KATE? WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU-"
The bright light flashed into the two teens eyes. Before the complaining followed about the strong brightness, each of them were in a somewhat a dream of their own. Stood in cold darkness, eyes' hallucinating in the confined square box.
"RICK? Where are you? RICK? THE IMAG-" Kate screamed in horror.
"KATE! KATE?"
"RICK. I CAN'T SEE YOU!"
"It's okay Kate. It's okay." Rick trembled trying to keep his best friend calm.
"Where are we?"
"I don't know. I don't kn- DAD?"
The images. It was so surreal. Filled with the happy memories of childhood along with the sadness. It was literally a walk down memory lane for the two. Kate reached for the memories, but the images faded into other ones. Being the daring teens they were, they stepped closer and closer into the images of each of their family's past going into two different paths as the memories went until everything could be made out.
"Oh look James, our baby is going to be a baby boy."
"He's going to be a FrostFire." The unfamiliar voice spoke.
"DAD? DAD!" Rick yelled and ran across the hospital exam room only to fly straight through the images. "They can't see me. What? What is going on? Hello, what does FrostFire mean?"
His father pulled out a fire truck. "Hey, that's the one on my night stand." Rick whispered.
"We need to conceal his powers until he is responsible."
"James, we aren't going to know when he will be."
"What do you mean conceal?" Rick questioned.
"A good age to own FrostFire then?"
"Yes, 15. I think 15 is a decent age."
"Are you sure? Isn't that late?"
"It will be okay. The summer when he is 15."
"All set."
The beeping on Rick's parent's wrist caused the couple to excuse themselves fairly quickly. "Martha, the headquarters. They need us. But I'm not letting you fight being pregnant with our baby."
"James, then be careful." Martha leaned in and gave him a quick kiss lighting her hand on fire and sending it to James as he threw a snow ball back.. "MOM? WHEN COULD YOU DO THAT?" Rick hollered into emptiness.
The images were changing to where Rick eyes didn't comprehend. "IS THAT ICE COMING OUT MY FATHER'S HANDS? WHAT? Oh no, he looks weak," Rick dove to his father, obviously forgetting he couldn't touch anything but the ground, yet can hover the somehow dream and fly freely. "NO DAD!" Before the knife reached his father, his FrostFire came to play. "Wha-What? Oh, wha-what?"
He had melted the weapon, and froze the man above his father. James looked around to find his saviour. Rick fell to the floor after casting the powers. He was still invisible to the past world and slowly faded into reality.

"MOM! I'm so happy to se-" Kate fell onto the floor. "Mom? Can't you see me? Oh my god. This isn't… the slightest bit normal."
It was the headquarters for supers. It was nothing ordinary to Kate.
"Jim, we are having a girl."
Jim reached for his wife stomach. "She's going to have telekinesis right?"
"Yes, and force fields." Johanna chimed in giving Jim a quick peck.
"What age should she know though?" Jim questioned more seriously.
"When she's 13."
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT?" Kate asked from the corner of the room.
"Summer though, it is usually when kids get their powers" Johanna added.
"How about earlier?"
"No, 13 is good Jim."
"All set." He confirmed to the puppet in his hands.
"WOAH. Wait hold up, what do you guys mea-" Kate questioned a little too late because the images changed to into a dark alley with her parents walking down in it. "What do you mean telekinesis and force fields? MOM… NO! DAD!" All before Kate's parents fell into trouble, Kate without her hands or physically touching anything drifted across the sky threw trees from everywhere onto the villains, sending a bubble around her parents before being knocked out by how strong she was using her powers. Nearly killing herself, she fell back into reality.
