Buddy lay on his bedroom floor, lying on his back, thinking of his life. It seemed so long, yet it was really simply the normal life span of a human. He knew that so far he had lived a good life, being able to have anything he wanted. He only had one friend, Zacathia, who happened to live with him. Some would consider them brother and sister, but they didn't. They knew as much, they had different birth parents, and the same adoptive parent. They went to the same school, but was most often in different classes. They were interested in the same things, but for different reason's. They were the same, but they were different at the same time.

Buddy thought to the first time he had met Zac. It had been when he was seven, in a hospital room. They were both blind, and had arrived together, so the nurses had put them in the same room so that their doctor could watch them easier. They had become fast friends, as if they had already known each other. After a few day's, they had found out that they both didn't remember anything from before waking up, and that as far as they knew, they were orphans.

Buddy had never seen Zacathia, as he was blind, but he had a mental picture of her. He had heard of a super that could give people their sight back, but neither of them felt like going to him. He was a busy man, why would he pay any attention to a pair of blind eighteen year-olds? They had been blind their entire lives, so they could deal with it.

"Bruiser!" Buddy called, feeling for his dog's head. He didn't go anywhere's without his dog, as Radar was his Seeing Eye dog. Many people wondered why he went to a public school, but he simply answered that he wanted to and if they had a problem with that he didn't care. That's because Buddy Pine had the power to control electronics, and every student in his school had some electronics on their body somewheres, so he could control it and possibly electrocute them. Never anything serious, only ever enough to annoy them.

Feeling his hand being licked, Buddy grabbed the special leash on Radar's back. He was going to go out for a walk, possibly to see Edna Mode and try and get a super suit from her. He had been talking himself into it for a while, and he had finally gotten himself to a state of mind that if Zac came with him, he'd go and ask. Plus, if Zac came with him, he could talk her into getting a suit too.

Walking across the hall, he bumped into something. He felt the fabric of the shirt, and found it was his adoptive mother, Lisa. He smiled at her, and muttered sorry as he continued across the hall to Zac's room. Upon opening the door, he was blasted with music from her stereo. She was playing Evanescence, while playing with her yo-yo and chewing blue bubblegum. Buddy walked over to the stereo, turning it down so that he could hear himself think.

"Wanna go for a walk?" He asked her, hoping that she said yes.

"Where we going?" She asked. He heard her sit up, and pat her leg. It was her command for her dog to sit beside her. She had been told her dog was a Rottweiler, and Buddy had been told his was a Pitt Bull. They had also been told that they could be very loyal breeds, if raised right. They had both hoped that they were raised right, because Zac and Buddy loved them.

"I dunno. I was thinking of going to see Edna Mode." Buddy said sheepishly, hoping that Zac didn't start laughing hysterically.

"Yeah, okay. I was thinking about going one of these day's." Zac said, getting up. He heard her kneel down, and pick something up. He figured it was one of her long overcoats. "Major, heel." She said, commanding her dog to stay with her. He couldn't hear her do it, but she picked up the leash on Major's back, allowing him to lead her.

Ten minutes later, they were walking down Main Street of Metroville, heading towards Edna Mode's house, or where they hoped it was. They knew she lived somewheres close, but had no idea where. They were simply going to ask around, and see if anyone knew and would tell them.

"This is going to be harder than we thought." Zac said, taking a bite of the hamburger that she had just bought. Buddy grunted agreement, while swallowing a bite of his. They had stopped at a McDonalds, and had both ordered the McDeal meal for the day. It was Tuesday, so they had gotten McChicken burgers. They had given the fries to the dogs, as they hadn't eaten before they had left. Zac had asked for them to not have grease or salt on them, for that specific reason.

"Maybe we're going about this wrong." Buddy suggested, getting an idea.

"So how should we be going about it?" Zac asked, her voice dripping ready with sarcasm.

"All the superheroes have their suits made by Edna, right? It's common knowledge. So she'd have it so that only a key few people know where she lived, otherwise she'd have hundreds of people coming to her door, wanting to see the supers. So all we have to do, is find a burning building or something of the like, and we'll eventually find a super, who could tell us where to find Edna." Buddy said, spelling out his plan so that he couldn't be mistaken.

"It's a good idea, but it's probably been done before." Zac said, shooting his plan down.

"True, but it's all we have. That and you could persuade them into it." he said, grinning. He could almost hear the cogs turning in Zac's head, turning the plan over in her mind, trying to find any little loophole that could go wrong, but not finding one. She could persuade the people, and if that didn't work, Buddy could shock them using their watches and other electric gizmos and gadgets until they did tell them. Or even better, show them.

"Okay. Let's do it." She said, shoving the rest of her burger in her mouth.

It was easier said than done, as there wasn't many calamities that happened near them. They had either just missed the super, or one hadn't shown up at all.

But soon enough, they found what they had been looking for. Even better, it was both of their favourite supers, Faze and The Dash. Or more precisely, Faze and the Dash found them, along with trouble. Zac and Buddy had been wandering around for hours, and had just decided to go into a bank to get some money out. Unbeknownst to them, Bomb Voyage had also decided to make a 'withdrawal' from the bank.

Buddy walked into the line of people waiting to see a teller, only to be knocked over by someone running into him. Buddy quickly got up, only to find that they man had dropped tons of bills onto the floor. Buddy, not knowing any better and being able to see the man was holding a gun, started collecting the bills and putting them into the bag he had found the man holding.

"I am so sorry." Buddy said, passing the man the stack of bills, only to have the barrel of the gun shoved into his stomach.

"Wat are you? ztupeed?" The man said, his voice thick with a French accent.

"No! I'm blind. That's why I apologized about bumping into you." Buddy explained quickly. He felt the man grab his shoulder, and hold him in front of him.

"Do nothing! Or zees boy gets one in 'is 'ead." The man said. Buddy put a bored expression on his face, and elbowed the man in his stomach, and then stepped on his foot. Using his powers, Buddy searched desperately for an electronic on the man's arm, a watch, anything. and there one was, just under his shirt sleeve. Buddy made it overload, and send an enormous shock up the man's arm, knocking him out cold.

"Buddy, what did you do?" He heard Zac call out.

"Bruiser!" Buddy called out. He felt his dog's front paws jump up onto his chest, and then felt Bruiser start licking his face. Laughing lightly, Buddy pushed the dog down onto the floor, and grabbed the leash on Bruiser's back.

"Where is he?" Someone asked, touching Buddy's shoulder.

"Who? The Frenchman with the gun? He's over there somewheres." Buddy said, pointing in the general direction.

"Oh. When will he learn? Bomb Voyage, how many times do we have to tell you, you can't beat us! Faze, did you do this?" The guy asked. He heard someone walk up to the guy in front of him, and shake their head.

"Did you do this?" A girl answered. Buddy figured it was Faze, Zac's favourite super, and the guy was The Dash, Buddy's favourite.

"Are you the Dash?" Buddy asked, knowing how stupid his question sounded. But hey, he was blind, he had to ask stupid questions to find out who people were.

"Yeah, can't you see me?" The Dash answered, Buddy figured he was now putting two and two together, while looking at Bruiser. "Ohh! You're blind aren't you? well then yes. Glad to meet you, sorry that I have to leave so soon, but I have to get Bomb here to a very special friend of mine."

"We have to figure out who did this though." Faze pointed out. Buddy heard Zac walk up beside him.

"Buddy here did. He has a 'knack' for electronics." Zac said, trying to make it painfully obvious for them without saying anything.

"What...? oh! then you should probably come too. Rick would want to meet you." The Dash said. Buddy was glowing. He was talking to one of the coolest Supers around! Not as cool as Mr. Incredible mind you, but Mr. I was retired.

"Really? You mean it?" Zac asked. Buddy could feel her happiness flowing off her. They could finally get into the superhero business, and they had stopped one of the oldest supervillians still at it!

"Yeah, but how to get you there? I need to get Bomb there fast, Faze would you?" The Dash asked, shifting Bomb Voyage's limp body on his shoulder.

"Sure. Go on, run like the wind and leave us in the dust." Faze laughed.

An hour later, they walked into a building. Buddy and Zac had been sworn to secrecy, and had been made to promise never to repeat anything they heard in there to anyone except possibly each other. They'd be told who to trust later.

"Vi- err, Faze, what are you doing bringing civvies here?" Someone asked. It sounded like a man, and one that was getting on in years too.

"Rick'll want to see them Frozone. The boy here stopped Bomb Voyage single-handedly." Buddy cringed at being called a boy, from the sound of her voice; Faze wasn't many years older than he was.

"Really? What's his name?" The man, Frozone Buddy figured, said.

"Dunno, he hasn't said yet." Faze said. He felt her gaze turn to him, and he smiled, wondering if he should tell them his real name, or his alias. He decided on his real name, he had to start trusting somewhere.

"My friend is Zacathia Kristoff, and I'm Buddy Pine." He said, smiling. He heard the room go silent, and he started wondering if it would have been a better idea to give his alias.

"Buddy Pine? Did I hear right? Did someone just say their name was Buddy Pine?" someone asked. It sounded like a really old voice that was bored with everything.

"Umm... Yes?" Buddy said, wondering what was so wrong with his name. Zac seemed confused too.

"How did you get here?" The man asked. "Lisa and Mitchell are supposed to be keeping a sharp eye on you." The man said, walking over and grabbing Buddy's shoulder, leading him back the way he had came.

"What are you doing? You mean to tell me that he survived, and no one told us? And then someone shrunk him, blinded him, erased his memory, then gave him superpowers?" Faze said, pulling the man that was leading Buddy away.

"What are you talking about?" Zac asked, getting annoyed. First they had been told they could come in, that a man would want to meet them, and then they were told that Buddy wasn't allowed, and their parents were supposed to be 'keeping an eye on him'?

"Poor Zac. Getting caught in all this. " The man said, touching Zac's shoulder. She quickly brushed it off, and felt around beside her until she found Buddy's arm and pulled him closer to him. If anything was going to happen, it was going to happen to both of them, or neither of them.

"Caught in what?" Buddy asked, also getting annoyed.

"Never you mind." The man said.

"Rick! If his memory really is gone, then wouldn't it be possible he's different from before? And going along with that same idea, he'd be one confused kid. Imagine you were in his shoes." Faze said. Buddy felt a sudden surge of happiness, he was starting to like Faze.

Buddy heard the man sigh; he was obviously starting to be talked into letting Buddy stay. There was no reason not to. All he wanted was to find out where Edna Mode lived, so that he could get a super suit. Was that so wrong?

"Fine. But no one can talk to him, unless they already have." The man, Rick, sighed. Buddy smiled; maybe things were finally starting to look up.
