Megamind started to get ready to meet the mysterious woman he spoke with on the phone. To be honest, he was more interested in the fact she loved science just as much as he did. He had gotten his supposed 'natural musk' and placed it on his collar. He did know however that this was a more business orientated meet up, so he hoped he would be very nonchalant.

Minion had walked up to him and looked at how he looked. His suit looked clean, and he wore his cape, which he hadn't seen in a while. "Sir, why are you so spruced up?"

"Well first impressions are very important, I want to look like a hero," Megamind said, looking at himself in the mirror and plucking his eyebrow.

"Sir, you can be honest," Minion said, Megamind pausing from his hair plucking and slumping his shoulders.

"Ugh, fine," he said, standing up, "as you know, Miss Ritchi has been quite absent in my life for some time, and you've been wanting me to meet other people."

"Yes?" Minion said, his fins perked up.

"Well, I succumbed to the reality that life with Miss Ritchi is a hard no, and therefore I am ready to be 'back-on-the-market' as they say today," Megamind said, his fingers curled at the phrase.

Minion's ears perked up at the sight of the alien finally waiting to date again. "Oh Sir!" he said, picking him up and hugging him tightly, much to Megamind's discomfort.

"Minion, you're crimping my suit," he said, flatting the stress lines of his suit.

"I'm sorry Sir, I couldn't help myself," Minion said, fixing his cape and having his hand over his own chest, "I'm just happy for you, you're such a good guy."

"I know I am… but how would women look at me? It took years for Miss Ritchi to fall for this face," he said as he had his hands on his face, checking all of his features.

"Sir, if Miss Ritchi fell for you than the next woman will. You're a good catch," he said, Megamind smirking in the mirror and showing his pearly whites.

Bernard's Apartment

Bernard had gotten a rope to tie down the balcony doors closed. He was so scared for Elise and her random walks at night. He wanted to protect her to the point where he had to cut down hours from his job at the museum. It was at a bad time too, as the coworkers were somewhat on a breakthrough on where the Doom Syndicate living at.

He was about to go to work when Elise had stepped out of her bedroom and peeped her head out, looking back and forth. "Your mom is at work," he said, an audible sigh coming from her.

She had stepped out in a black pencil skirt and a white blouse with short heels. Her hair was in a French twist with a minimal amount of makeup. She was slightly curvy and looked more like an adult.

"And where are you going dressed like that?" Bernard said with her briefcase on the counter and hands on his waist.

"I'm going to a job interview," she said.

"For what?" he asked.

"I was checking online for jobs, and I saw a job opening for a 5 to 9 job as a companion for Lady Scott at the Scott Manor. It pays good money and I get access to the all the amenities there," she said, going back to her room and getting a flyer and a pamphlet got recently.

"There is no way under the sun that you are working at night. You're too young and you just go out of the hospital," he said.

"Listen, I need this job. I can't stay here in my thoughts and wonder what I could have done that day," She said, her hands balled into a fist, "mom is obviously not worried about me. She hasn't even said anything since the first time she saw me at the hospital."

"I know…" Bernard said, "I know. But don't get this job as a means to get away. Do it because you want to.

"Bernard," she said, grabbed his face, "I want to be independent. I want to be free, I want to work," she said.

"Okay!" he said, her voice muffled from her squeezing his face.

"What?" she asked in surprise, her hands loosening around his face.

"You can work, but you have to tell your mom," he said.

"NO! I can't let her know!" she said. "She hasn't cared about everything else, and now that she's pregnant she's not gonna think of me anymore."

"She's not pregnant…" he said, sighing a little. "It was a false pregnancy." Bernard had known about this in the mist of Elise being in the hospital. Vida was saddened, but Bernard assured her that everything would be fine.

She had stopped her whining and had recollected. Her mother wasn't pregnant, and she said all of those things to her. She felt guilty to an extent.

"I get it. But she hasn't paid any attention to me. Like how can you value a man over your own child," she said, "see this is what I'm talking about. I can't stay here with my thoughts." She soon left and headed out to the Manor.

Metro City Academy

Megamind was greeted by the few officers from the penitentiary he grew up in. He walked in with Minion, seeing the hallways of the school. Unlike Mika's reaction to the heavily decorated that featured Metro Man, Megamind was all but unimpressed by it all. He looked at one of the statues that featured Metro Man. He had giggled and started to mock it.

"I see we haven't changed our ways, Mr. Mind," Principal Smith, standing in a navy blue suit with a black tie. Megamind turned around, gobsmacked.

It was his old principal from his youth.

"You're the principal of this high shool?" Megamind said, joining at him.

"Yes. I also see you don't know how to greet your elders," Smith replied, his hand over his waist.

"Hello, Principal Smith, so good to see you," Minion said, breaking the tension.

"Good to see you too, Minionoviche," Smith said, emphasized, the fish getting embarrassed, "how's your family in Vienerschnitzel."

"Good… Principal Smith," Minion said, again embarrassed.

"Anyways, how are the students? Are they doing alright since the last time I saw them?" Megamind said, hoping they are in good spirits.

"They're recovering, but the day still plays in their mind," Smith said, turning around and seeing the sophomore class's recent picture day, "one of the students got severely injured… luckily you came just in time."

"Right…" Megamind said.

"Anyways, let's get down to business. The school needs a better security system than the one we have. And one of our teachers believes you're the… 'man', for the job," Principal Smith said, his face tired of him already.

"Yes, yes," Megamind said. "Where is Miss Kyoto?"

"She's in my office with the plans," he said, taking Megamind to his office. He had a large office with a large work table. He had some little knick knacks here and there. He had a photo of the 'late' Metro Man in his youth.

"She's not here," Megamind pointed out, Smith rolling his eyes.

"You have no patience whatsoever," Smith said. The sounds of heels had taken over Megamind's ears. He could hear them getting louder. It was then that Kyoto had made a turn onto the office. She was in a baby blue pencil skirt with a white sleeveless white blouse. Her hair was in her infamous high ponytail. She had seen the hero turn his head, meeting his green eyes.

"Hello, Sir," she said, to Megamind smiling softly.

Megamind had dragged the 'h' in his greeting but managed to get a hello out.

"I'm terribly sorry, Miss Kyoto. He obviously hasn't learned anything from his youth," Smith said, but Kyoto wasn't at all bothered by her boss's contempt for the hero.

"How are you?" Kyoto asked, tilting her head to the side slightly. She walked to him, her heels meeting the carpet.

"I'm fine, very fine," Megamind said, his hands trying to find a place to rest on his body.

"I look forward to spending time with you and getting an idea on how to make the school better," She said, being quite close to him.

"I look forward to that… the school thing," he said, stammering with his words.

"Well then, let's get down to business," Kyoto said, her voice inciting.

Megamind saw that this was going to be a rather interesting interaction with this woman.
