Don't own Heroes, or anything else I might mention.

This just shows a bit of how a few thousand years can give you a different perspective than others.

If its in italics, its translated.

They stared at the TV screen in shock.

"Well..." Gretchen started, then faded off.

"that's..." Peter trailed of.

An almost hysterical laugh startled them. Everyone turn to see Calipsa still sitting in the chair, now laughing. "He's insane," she got out though her laughter. "One of the most insane people I've come across. Killing a live reporter, who's reporting on you?" tears were spilling from the corners of her eyes she was laughing so hard. She said something in a different language.

"You find that funny?" Peter asked, shocked.

"She finds a lot of things funny." Noah added, now back to watching the TV intently. "She found World War I just hilarious."

"It was. The only funnier war was the cold war. A war started on half-truths and rumours, everyone running around with proxy wars and their spies, trying to get to the moon first, trying to have more nuclear weapons." she made a noise which was something like 'psh'.

"Can we focus on the the two insane people trying to take over the world?" Noah asked.

"Sure." Calipsa said cheerfully. "Matt, whats your range?"

"On...?" He asked.

"Your power. How close do you have to be to control someone?"

Matt paused. "I'm not sure exactly."

"I have your power, but apparently I'm not aloud to go anywhere near Samuel. So I think Matt should make them separate. Either Gabriel or I can deal with Doyle, and Peter can go in to Samuel." Calipsa suggested.

"I'm not fighting him in the middle of New York." Peter said.

"You did before." Gabriel pointed out.

"That was in Central park, and his carnival. No building or electrical systems." Peter protested.

Noah nodded. "Looks like we need someone to take Samuel out of New York."

"I assume you mean a teleporter. One that isn't me." Calipsa commented.

Claire turned to her "Calipsa, you mind taking me to Japan?"

..

Hiro turned to friend and soon to be brother. "The wedding is in a few weeks. Nervous?" he asked.

Ando smiled. "I have loved Kimiko for years. I cannot wait to marry her."

Hiro nodded happily. "Good."

Suddenly, two people appeared in the office where they stood.

Hiro turned. "Cheerleader!" he said. "And other girl I do not know."

"Hey, Hiro." Claire smiled. "This is Calipsa." Calipsa bowed. Hiro did back.

"Hiro Nakamura. I knew your father. He was a great man. It saddened me to hear of his passing." her face split into a grin. "Also, good job on driving Adam Monroe insane. Although I guess he was Takezo Kensei when you drove him mad."

Hiro looked at Ando, confused.

"How did you know Hiro's father, and Adam Monroe?" Ando asked.

"Its a long story. Look, Hiro, I don't know if you've heard about whats happening in New York?" Claire asked.

"Evil butterfly man escape and hurt many people." Hiro said solumly.

Calipsa looked confused. "Evil butterfly man." she repeated.

"He tends to give people... nicknames." Claire explained.

"Like Cheerleader?" Calipsa smirked.

Claire sighed. "Hiro, we need your help. You need to come back to America."

Hiro nodded. "It is my destiny."

Calipsa was looking more confused.

"I must go if you are going, Hiro," Ando insisted.

"No. You're getting married soon. You need to stay here." Hiro insisted.

"I'm not letting you leave to fight Samuel Sullivan without me, Hiro."

"Your friend in right," Calipsa added in. The three others looked at her in shock. "Yes, I speak Japanese. I speak a lot of languages. But your friend is right. You've been through a lot lately. I think you had a brain scramble? And you were electrocuted. And you had a brain tumour."

"How do you know all that?" Hiro asked.

"I have my ways." She said.

Claire was relieved the conversation was back in English.

Hiro nodded. "Fine. Ando can come. But he must tell his future wife first."

"Okay. We have to make a quick stop in India and we'll see you at Peter's." Claire told him.

"India?"

"I need to take a power of a girl there." Calipsa said. "I'll explain later."

Hiro bowed. "See you in America, Cheerleader and Confusing girl."

Calipsa smiled crookedly as she grabbed Claire should and disappeared.

..

Molly was tapping her nails loudly on the table.

Mohinder looked up from his papers. "Something bothering you, Molly?"

Molly sighed. "Nope." her fingers tapped faster.

"Are you sure?"

Molly sighed, and her tapping hand flattened down so her palm was pressed to the table. "More scientists called today. They wanted to talk to you, see what you know about Special's, what your father knew."

"Yes. Mira told me."

"Why don't you talk to them, Mohinder? You know so much, and you have so many files and tapes and research just lying around. Why don't you want to help?"

"Last time the world was given information about people like us, building 26 opened. You weren't there, thank god,"

"I was part of Rebel." Molly blurted.

Mohinder stared. "What?"

"I asked Grandma Suresh not to tell you. But I was part of Rebel for a little while. They came and I helped them find people."

Mohinder stared. "You could have gotten yourself killed, Molly."

Molly opened her mouth to retort, but was interrupted by two people appearing in the room.

Mohinder stood. "Claire?" he asked.

"Dr. Suresh." Claire greeted him. "This is Calipsa, she's just needs to borrow Molly's power."

"What for?" Mohinder asked, stepping in front of Molly.

"I already have it. And standing in front of her wouldn't stop me anyways." Calipsa remarked.

Claire sighed. "she needs it so we can find Samuel Sullivan and Eric Doyle, so Matt Parkman can make them separate, so Gabriel can capture Doyle, so Hiro can teleport Samuel away from people, so Peter can defeat him."

"Matt?" Molly asked, excited. "Is he here?"

Claire shook her head. "No, sorry. He's back in America."

"Can you take me back to see him?" she asked.

"Gabriel? Don't you mean Sylar?" Mohinder asked.

"It was his power that made him kill." Calipsa said. "Just like how your power made you-" she cut herself off at his look. "Don't be so sensitive. You're supposed to be a scientist. People's powers can cause problems. Some get the hunger, some get multiple personality's, some get aggression." she smiled pointedly at him. Mohinder glared.

Molly looked at Mohinder. "Can I go with them and see Matt?"

"Its fine with me if she comes. Matt's not in a very good place right now." Claire told him.

"Yes, I saw the news conference. I don't know why you said her name." he sighed. "Molly can go with you. But I don't want her getting hurt."

Calipsa nodded. "I've taken care of more than a few children in my time. I can make sure she isn't dead when we give her back."

Mohinder gave her a weird look.

Claire sighed. "Okay. Back we go. It was nice seeing you again, Dr. Suresh."

"Say hello to your father for me."

..

"Mohinder says hi." Claire told her dad when her, Calipsa, and Molly reappeared in Peter and Gabriel's home.

Noah looked up. "You brought Molly with you?" he asked, seeing the girl.

"Molly?" Matt said excitedly when he saw her.

"Matt!" Molly hugged her old foster father.

Claire walked to her father. "Hiro and Ando get here?"

"Yes. They're in the kitchen with 'Peter Petrelli' and 'The Brain Man'." Noah said. "Peter's trying to convince them Sylar's not going to kill anyone."

Claire sighed and walked to the kitchen.

"If Peter Petrelli trusts the Brain Man, I trust him. Besides, he saved Charlie." Hiro was saying to Ando.

Ando was still watching Gabriel carefully.

Hiro smiled brightly when he saw Claire. "Cheerleader Claire!" he bowed. "Where is your friend who speaks Japanese?"

Peter gave her a questioning look.

"Apparently Calipsa speaks Japanese." Claire explained.

"I speak many languages." Calipsa commented, gliding into the kitchen, her bare feet sticking out from the legs of her blue jeans, each braid in her black hair swishing with each step.

"You said you would explain how you knew Hiro's father and Adam Monroe." Ando reminded her.

"I worked for the company for a while. Your father did too. I met Adam years and years before he was locked up. He talked about you. A lot. Called you Carp." a humorous smile graced her lips. "He couldn't wait for you to be born, so he could destroy you. Four hundred years. If anyone could hold a grudge, if would be him."

"Years and years?" Hiro repeated.

Calipsa grabbed a knife off the counter, and ran it across her face. Hiro and Ando watched as it healed.

"Oh. You heal."

"Yes. I am two thousand years old."

They stared at her.

"Oh, like its stranger to be two thousand years than four hundred." Calipsa said.

Rebecca walked into the kitchen, glancing at the bloody knife and grabbing oven mitts off the counter as the oven alarm went off.

"Dinners ready," she called. "Clean the knife, please. And your face." she said briskly, making Calipsa smirk and Gabriel smile.

So... I might be doing some flash back chapters. I dunno, haven't made up my mind.
