The next day, after school, Violet found herself at the front gate of the home of Edna Mode, designer for the supers. It was she who had designed her parents original super suits, and their new ones (unofficially of course).
She was also one of the world's most accomplished dress makers.
Well, thought Violet, this is it.
She pressed a button on a nearby intercom. After a few seconds, a nearby monitor activated.
"Name please?" said a blurry figure.
"Um, my name is Violet Parr, My father is a friend of Enda's…"
"Ms. Mode sees no one without an appointment" interrupted the guard.
"But my father's Bob Parr…"
At that a huddled figure appeared on the monitor, and mumbled something to the guard.
"Um, please come in." said the guard. Immediately, the laser beams on the front gate disappeared.
Well, here goes nothing. Thought Violet.
As she approached the mansion, she was greeted by Edna Mode herself. As she greeted her, Violet SWORE she was a foot smaller than Dash.
"Velvome dahlink! Vot brings you to my humble abode?"
"Um well, Miss Mode"
"Please dahlink! Everyone calls me Edna! Or as I prefer, 'E'!"
"Sure, um, 'E'…, I was wondering if you could help me out…"
"Say no more! Just follow me."
She led her down a corridor. When they reached the end, E spoke in a nearby panel. "Edna Mode, and guest." Immediately, the door opened and she led her into her lab.
Violet was speechless. Edna's lab reminded her of those top secret labs she saw in sci fi films.
"Please! Sit yourself down! Make yourself comfortable!" said Edna. Violet immediately sat on a couch. Noticing a pitcher of water, she started to help herself to a glass.
"Allow me dahlink." said Edna as she reached for a button.
Immediately, huge clamps came out from behind and under the chair, immediately trapping Violet.
Edna looked in shock and gave a short nervous laugh. "Heh heh, wrong button!" she said as she pressed another button. The clamps immediately retracted.
Nervously, Violet wondered if this was such a good idea after all...
