-Linda Walker's House-

Hulk and Ms. Powerhouse walk up to a multi-floor house. It was pretty luxurious, much to Hulk's amazement.

"You know...for a superhero, you seem to be in great financial health or whatever." Hulk says with a light chuckle.

Ms. Powerhouse chuckles back, only to gasp. Her family doesn't know about him. "Crap. Um...Hulk, I have a confession to make. I have a family, so..."

"You're afraid of how they'll react to seeing me." Hulk interrupts, receiving a nod from her. "So what are we gonna do? Sneak in?"

She shrugs. "I guess...though we'll have to be quiet." She says as they approach the west wall of the house. "The second floor window leads to my bedroom." She whispers.

Hulk nods as he hoists her up onto his shoulders, giving her enough height to reach the window as she crawls into her room.

"Thanks, Hulk." She whispers. "Now you. Come on." She holds her hands out for Hulk to grab onto so she can pull him up, though he raises his eyebrows at this.

"You're kidding, right? I'm twice your size." Hulk says as he crosses his arms. "You try to pull me up, I'll either pull you down here with me, or I'll tear your arms off."

She quietly scoffs. "What's wrong? You scared?" She teases.

Hulk narrows his eyes at her. "Whatever." He then stands on his toes and reaches for Ms. Powerhouse, who manages to lift him and pull him into her bedroom after a great amount of struggling.

-Linda's Bedroom-

"Whew. You are heavier than an elephant." She teasingly says.

"I'll try to take that as a compliment..." Hulk mumbles as he slowly steps around the room.

Ms. Powerhouse notices his careful footsteps. "Don't worry about falling through the floor. The floor is reinforced titanium. My parents had it installed after my powers...manifested."

Hulk chuckles as he puts his feet flat on the floor, sighing in relief that the floor can handle his weight. "That's a relief." He remarks with a smile, receiving a giggle from Ms. Powerhouse.

"Funny, strong, and sweet. How do you keep the women away?" She jokingly asks.

Hulk raises an eyebrow in response to her remark. "You really have to ask? I think the answer would be obvious."

"Come on." Ms. Powerhouse says, lightly tapping him on the arm. "You can tell me."

Hulk sighs. Linda was too beautiful for him to keep secrets from. "It's because of how I look, okay? Green skin isn't exactly my most...interesting quality."

"Hmmm...I'd say otherwise. I think everything about you is an interesting quality. Your face, your eyes, your body..." She says, her voice getting increasingly seductive as she looks up at her friend.

Hulk blushes hard at her words. "Um...okay."

"Sit on the bed." Ms. Powerhouse says as she sits on her comfortable bed and taps an empty space, clearly wanting Hulk to sit next to her.

Hulk slightly nods as he slowly sits down, sighing in relief that it can hold his weight like the floor could. "Same as the floor?"

She nods. "You bet. Hehe. Anyway, tell me more about yourself."

"M-Myself?" Hulk asks.

"Yeah. I want to get to know you better, big guy." She says as she crosses her legs.

"Uh...what do you want to know?" He asks as he briefly looks at her slender legs, clearly amazed by how slender they were.

"Do you have any family? What's your job? What are your powers?" She asks.

Hulk feels saddened, remembering his dead mother and his monster of a father. "I'd rather not say."

"Why not? Did I...do something?" She asks, fearing she hurt his feelings.

"No. But...there's something you need to know."

"What is it?" She asks, looking into his eyes. Hulk sighs as he forces himself to turn back into Bruce Banner, much to Linda's shock/surprise. "S-So...you and Hulk are...?" She struggles to say, finding it difficult to process what just happened.

Bruce nods as he grabs a blanket and wraps it around himself. "Yeah. It's a lot to process, I know."

She shakes her head. "Actually...I can relate."

"Oh. You know someone that changes form?" Bruce asks, to which Ms. Powerhouse shrugs.

"Yeah. Something like that. Heh." She says with a light smile. "Wait. You look familiar..."

"What? You mean...Wait. Have we met?" Bruce asks, starting to recognize her as well.

Ms. Powerhouse nods as she takes off her mask, revealing her full face. "It's me. Linda."

Bruce's eyes widen slightly. "You're the girl I met at the bar..."

"Yeah. Hehehe. And you're the guy who saved me from that supervillain."

Bruce chuckles. "Linda. Heh. So you're a superhero..."

"Actually, the correct term is 'Super'...but superhero works too." Linda says with a light smirk.

"Heh." Bruce chuckles as he looks at Linda.

"So...tell me about your family." Linda says as she wraps her arm around him.

"I...I have a cousin. She's a lot like me. Her name's Jennifer. Jennifer Walters."

"Sounds like a very nice person. Should I expect to meet her anytime soon?" Linda asks, wanting to meet her.

Bruce shakes his head, remembering how he got there. "No. I...We're not from around here."

"Oh. That's too bad." Linda says disappointingly.

"Yeah. What about you? Tell me about your family." Bruce says.

"My family is pretty great. I have a mom, a dad, and a few siblings."

"And how do they feel about you being a superhero?" Bruce asks.

"They're in full support of me, Bruce. They know how careful I am when I'm out there, fighting criminals."

"They sound like...the most supportive family of all time.." Bruce softly says.

"Heh. Pretty much. So...shall we discuss powers?"

"You...want to talk about each other's powers?" Bruce asks, puzzled by her question.

"You bet! Especially after seeing what you did to Arcflash and his men."

"Okay. Well, when I'm the Hulk, I'm absurdly strong, I get stronger when I get angrier, I'm immune to bullets and most conventional weapons, I'm very fast, I can leap very high, and I have an accelerated healing factor."

To say the least, Linda was amazed by how many abilities Hulk had at his disposal, and couldn't wait to see them in action again. "Wow! You have a lot of powers!"

"Yeah. Well, the Hulk does. When I'm me, I'm just...well, me. Heh." He says nervously as he looks at Linda. "What about you?"

"Oh. Well, I'm pretty similar, except I'm probably weaker than the big guy." Linda says with a light grin.

-Later-

Deciding to test how Hulk would operate in Metroville, Linda and Hulk sneak out of the house to go out for some vigilante fun, coming across a mugging, which they easily deal with, as well as a robbery. After dealing with these crimes, they head back to Linda's house, unaware that they're being watched through a streetlight camera...

-Edna Mode's Estate-

Edna watches recorded footage of Linda and Hulk's heroic antics with a look of interest and amazement practically beaming from her face. "Fascinating creature...If I could only find out where he lives..." She says to herself.
