Heroes
Volume 3: Villains
Author's Notes: Heroes, it's characters and such is owned by Tim Kring and NBC and the rest of the OC's here are mine for the taking. Sorry if I took a very, very, very long time before I managed to post this up. I was really busy and had quite a lot of work done these past few days. Now on with the story!
Episode 10: Discoveries
Sylar, the Doctor, Anderson and the woman, Somewhere in the Nevada Desert
The shadows holding Sylar disappear and the man in the lab coat says, "Let's pack him up!"
Anderson and the Doctor carries Sylar's unconscious body into the SUV. The Doctor and Anderson then get inside the car and Anderson asks the woman in front of him, "Where to next…Angela Petrelli?"
"We turn Sylar in to Bob as a sign of good faith…and for the Company to doubt your group," Angela Petrelli informs the duo in front of her, "Then…he'll incarcerate Sylar Level 5…and that's where our plans will be put into action."
Matt Parkman and Maarten, New Orleans
"So this is Niki Sanders is currently staying in?" Matt Parkman asks Maarten, who nods.
"Yes," Maarten replies as he approaches the door and says, "And don't do anything unless I say so and here take my phone in case anything happens."
Matt nods as Maarten knocks on the door. An old woman opens the door and looks surprised at her visitors.
"Hello! What may I help you with…agent?"Nana Dawson asks the pyrokinetic.
"We're looking for Niki Sanders…is she here?" Maarten asks the old woman, "Dawson?"
"You know each other?" Matt Parkman says in surprise.
"Actually dear…it was I who was part of the group that bagged and tagged Maarten a couple of years ago together with Ivan Spektor…and Bob Bishop," Nana Dawson says as they all hear a voice shouting from the inside.
"Nana…I think we have a problem here!" a young woman says as the trio outside re-enter and see Niki struggling on the floor, "She suddenly fell and…there she is."
"Mom! What's happening?" Micah says as he approaches his mom, who swung her hand to towards Micah, but the boy was grabbed by Maarten.
"Stay away from me!" Niki says as she looked in pain in the floor, "I can't stop her anymore…she's getting free…"
"Jessica?" Matt says as he suddenly approaches Niki a bit and reads her mind that made him hear, "You can't go out Tracy! You just can't!"
Parkman heard another voice afterwards, "Oh…and who said you can't stop me?"
"What's wrong Parkman?" Maarten says as he looks at a concentrating Parkman, "What are you hearing?"
"It seems like..there's this other voice in her head…that's trying to get free," Matt says as he looks at Niki, whose eyes darken a bit and stands up and looks at Parkman, "Actually…I'm already free."
Niki then grabs Parkman and throws him out of the house.'
"Parkman!" Maarten says as he sees his partner being thrown outside and talks to the girl beside him, "You, you're that Monica Dawson girl right? Take Ms. Dawson and Micah…and get out of here now while I take care of Niki."
Monica nods as she tries to carry a resisting Micah and leads Nana Dawson out of the house.
Matt Parkman then stands up after being thrown out of the house and looks at the house as he sees flames inside the house. He then looks at the Dawsons and Micah and says, "You guys better run away from here…"
"But my mom is in there!" Micah says to Parkman.
"Then I'll try to bring your mom back to normal in one piece…now go!" Parkman tells the boy as he draws out his gun.
Micah nods and follows Nana and Monica as the escape.
"Now it's between you and me…" Maarten says as flames danced around him, "If you don't want to get burnt crisp…you better stand down."
"Who said I will?" a defiant Niki says as he tries to throw a punch to Maarten, who shoots a blast of flame to Niki.
Surprisingly, the flames go through Niki and hit the wall behind her.
"How did you? I thought you only had super strength" Maarten says with shock.
"Niki did," the blonde woman says, "I'm Tracy Strauss…and I'm very unlike Niki."
"So you can now phase like your husband," Maarten says as flames dance around him once again and says, "Then I'll have to blow this place up to stop you…"
"Maarten!" Parkman says as he enters the premises. He then sees Tracy and fires several round toward her that phases right through her.
"Get out of here Parkman!" Maarten says as he looks back at Daniela as he sends a fiery blast towards the woman, who just phases through the flames again.
"He can't leave," Tracy says with a smirk as she suddenly phases her hand through Maarten's chest and draws her bloodied arm back.
As Parkman saw Tracy draw her arm back, Maarten fell dead to the ground. Parkman then shoots at Tracy from point blank range, but Tracy phases through the bullets.
Parkman then closes his eyes and mentally commands Tracy, "Don't come any nearer! Don't! Just go to sleep!"
Tracy suddenly stops moving and says, "Wait a minute did you just…"
Tracy's eyes roll back to her head and she falls to the floor and is unconscious.
Parkman takes out his phone and dials a number, "Bob…this is Parkman. Maarten's dead. Niki has some kind of a new personality who is naming herself Tracy. Yeah…yeah…I'll meet her then…"
Michael Raines and Noah Bennett, New Orleans
"You think this disguise will hold up till we get back to the house? It seems to give away my identity right away" Noah Bennet wearing a baseball cap asks Michael, who is carrying a plastic bag filled with groceries.
"There are thousands of guys wearing a baseball cap here in Orleans…how could they even recognize you right?" Michael says in his British accent as he turns in a corner and says, "Let's go through this short cut I know…not only you're hidden but also that Elle Bishop won't be foolish enough to run through alleys in here."
"I'm just wondering…why are you not getting the supplies we need with your ability? You seem comfortable in using those abilities for personal gain. And why bring me with you?," Noah asks the young man.
"I do have my own morals you know…and besides I thought you needed some fresh air and I need the company sometimes you know," Michael says as he takes a left by a corner and knocks into a green shirted woman holding a cup of coffee.
The coffee spills and Michael says, "Sorry mam. I was just careless…"
"Oh you really are careless…" the woman says as Michael looks at her face and she says, "Right?"
"What is it Mi…" Noah says as he walks to where Michael just took a left and saw the woman, "Elle…"
"Run!" Michael shouts to Noah as Elle holds his hand before he can run, "Bloody…"
Michael shouts at the surging of electricity inside his body because of Elle and he collapses to the ground.
Noah drops his groceries and tries to run when Elle sends a lightning bolt that hits the Bennett's back and he falls to the ground and winces at the shock.
Elle smiles and walks to Noah and says, "It took quite awhile for me before I could find you and now…daddy's going to be proud of me."
"Not a chance," the Briton says as he stands up and tries to tackle Elle, who casually sends another bolt to Michael, who is thrown away by the blast and crashes to the floor and groans in pain.
Elle looks at Michael and says, "You're handsome, but too bad you aren't my type…since you are too much trouble on my part."
Elle was about to send a fatal lightning bolt to Michael, when Noah stands up and stops her.
"I'll go with you…leave him and my family in peace," Noah offers Elle.
"Oooo!" Elle says with a sultry smile, "Surrendering for the safety of others…its not very you."
"I must do what I must for my family," Noah tells Elle, who shrugs and cuffs Noah with handcuffs hidden at her back.
"Let's go then," Elle says as she leads Noah into a nearby blue Toyota and Noah seats at the passengers seat as Elle took the driver's seat.
Noah looks at the electrically shocked Michael and he says, "Take care of Claire."
The car then accelerates away leaving Michael alone in the floor.
The speedster manages to stand up and says, "Ohh boy! Looks like weetle Claire will get mad at me if she learns her dad was taken…"
Michael then blurs out of sight.
Claude, Kira, Kaito, Hirohito and Ando, Inside Kaito Nakamura's Limousine in New York
"Pe…Peter drew this?" Ando says as he looks at the picture of the mural, "But…but this looks impossible…"
"With all that is happening around you guys…I don't think anything is impossible," Claude tells Ando as he looks at Kaito, "Anyways, the cavalry is pulling some strings he can pull to help us…or so he says. So we're going to find the other two?"
"Of course…we do need them if we are to save the world," Kaito Nakamura tells the Briton.
Present Peter Petrelli, Steve Euler and Neil, Warehouse in New York
Peter Petrelli looks at Steve and Neil as he puts on a black leather jacket above a white shirt partnering black pants. Peter then looks at Neil and says, "I'm set."
"Then we better be going," Neil says as he heads toward the door of the warehouse.
Peter follows Neil, but looks back at Steve, "Aren't you coming with us?"
"I don't think I'm going to be needed…and besides once you accomplish what you and Neil need to do…I'll be here waiting to finish your training. Now go."
Peter nods as he follows Neil out of the warehouse and asks, "Where are we going to now?"
"We're going to meet an old friend of the Company…and believe me if I say he's an old friend," Neil says as he looks at Peter, "He really goes way back up to 1980's."
Neil then holds Peter as they suddenly disappear out of nowhere.
Nathan Petrelli, Hartsdale, New York
Nathan Petrelli lands on top of a helicopter pad in the Hartsdale Facility in New York and sees Bob with a man wearing glasses and a grey tuxedo, "Hi Mr. Petrelli…I see that you're back. My associate here is Gael Cruz, a trustworthy friend of mine."(Gael is from the Heroes Comics)
"Hi…" Nathan says as he looks at Bob, "I just saw mom back at home…and called in two agents to harm and…'contain' me. One somehow uses bones and another one uses water…"
"Kai and Yvvone…" Gael mutters under his breath as he looks at Bob, "The situation has gone from bad to worst…it looks like they are already on the move Bob. I never thought I would say this, but I think the Company is in a very compromising position now…"
"I agree..that's why you and Nathan will go to Odessa, Texas in a helicopter I just called in for both of you to check up with Suresh there," Bob tells Gael in a serious tone, "I'll handle down the fort here with Thompson's son…if worst come to worst…have Sean and his boys come."
"I already told them to be in town in case something happens," Gael says as he looks at the sky above him.
"Nathan Petrelli…I know we didn't have a good start, but will you join forces with me now to stop this catastrophe?" Bob asks Nathan.
"I don't have a choice do I?" Nathan says as the helicopter lands and he asks Bob, "What will we specifically do in Texas?"
"Go to Suresh and check on how he is doing…Gael here would also check up on Suresh and of course try to know more on Suresh's new partner, who has a dangerous ability," Bob informs Nathan as he looks at Gael, "And try to check in with an old friend before you get to Primatech will you?"
"Sure…" Gael says as he looks at the skies and said, "What's taking that copter for so long?"
Nathan sighs and says while kneeling, "Get on my back…we're going to fly…"
"Are you sure Nathan?" Bob asks Gael, "You don't have super strength like Superman to compliment your abilities…"
"I managed to carry Parkman from New York to Texas just in time to stop Adam and Peter from releasing the virus…so if I can carry Parkman, who looks heavier than Gael, why can't I carry him?"
Gael nods as he gets on Nathan's back and they suddenly soar up in the air and head to Texas like a speeding bullet.
Future Peter Petrelli, New Orleans
Future Peter is seen walking just outside the house of the Dawsons when he sees Matt Parkman carrying Niki Sanders into a black Company issued car. Peter then conceals his scar with his powers of illusion to disguise himself as Present Peter and land near Parkman.
"What the…" Matt says as he looks at Peter, "Peter what are you doing here?"
"Matt you must listen to me," Future Peter says to Parkman, "One mistake can lead to a catastrophe."
"What are you saying?" Parkman says as he looks at Peter with scrutiny and tries to read his mind.
"Stop…reading my mind Parkman!" Future Peter mentally shouts to Parkman, who is taken aback.
"Wait you shot…" Parkman says as his eyes widen as the Petrelli grabs Parkman and they both disappear out of thin air.
Peter Petrelli and Neil, Odessa, Texas
"So he lives here?" Peter asks Neil as they see a house nearby.
"Well…it looks like it did look like in the alternate future," Neil says as he looks at the house, "Ready to meet our new friend?"
Neil walks toward the house's door and rings the doorbell.
"What's his power?" Peter asks Neil when the door suddenly opens and a man who bears a resemblance to Sir Ian Mckellen. The man is seen wearing a Hawaiian shirt and khaki pants.
"You might be surprised Mr…Petrelli," the old man says with a smile to a surprised Peter.
"How did you know my name?" Peter asks the old man who walks away and the man says, "Let's talk about it inside the sitting room shall we?"
Peter looks at Neil, who shrugs with a smile, and the two enter the house and the door suddenly closes.
The duo enters the sitting room and they see three blue couches in the room with a small table in the middle. A red carpet is seen on the floor and a fireplace is also seen behind one of the couches.
Peter and Neil sit on one of the couches as the Ian Mckellen look-alike enters the room with a tray filled with steaming tea pot, tea bags, coffee bags, three cups and a pitcher of milk.
"So…may I interest you with some refreshments?" the old man says as the tea pot filled with hot water pours some water into the cups and a tea bag is placed on one of the cups as the coffee sachets fill the other two cups with coffee powder. The water suddenly stirs itself inside the coffee filled cups, which suddenly move into the hands of Neil and Peter.
Peter looks in surprise as Neil and the old man, who took the tea, and drank their drinks without any side comment.
"How did you…" Peter says in surprise as the old man looks at Peter.
"Don't you still get it Mr. Petrelli? It seems that Neil here knows my powers quite well," the old man says as he takes another sip at his drink and he mentally says to Peter, "Peter…my ability concerns all the powers that are linked to the brain."
"Did you just talk…to me…telepathically?" Peter asks the old man, who nods.
"Peter…the man in front of you is Leonard Grant. His ability is somewhat gives him the Maximum Brain Potential," Neil explains to the confused Petrelli.
Before Peter can say another word, Grant informs Peter, "Your friend is quite right. To be understood in simpler terms, man only uses 10 to 12 percent of his brain correct?"
Peter nods at Grant's statement.
"Now…give man at least 20 percent more of his brain power and such…abilities such as telekinesis, eidetic memory and telepathy is theoretically possible right?" Grant says as he earns another nod from Peter, "Now imagine a person whose brain capacity and brain power is unlocked at a hundred percent? Someone who has telekinesis, telepathy, illusion creation, eidetic memory, photographic memory, teleportation, and all the other abilities that concern the use of the brain…all of those things I can do. In other words, I have the Maximum Brain Potential."
Peter looks surprise at the man in front of him and drinks the coffee in his hands and says afterwards, "I see...so you are kind of like Kyle XY in the tv show?"
"Not exactly…I can't do the physical attributes given to Kyle…since I have grown old and my body isn't that young anymore…but my brain remains strong and active as ever," Leonard informs Peter and he looks at Neil, "So what brings you here my friends? I know that you are trustworthy enough that neither of you are agents to the Company."
"Well…we came here for the purpose of…asking for your aid against the Company," Neil explains to Leonard, who looked outraged.
"Fight the Company? Are you insane? I may have powerful abilities, but it doesn't mean I'm invincible enough to fight them!" Leonard points out to Neil, "Do you have any idea why I have stayed here for almost ten years of my life? Because it is here that I can live peacefully and not be bothered by the Company. If I ever fight against them, then my purpose staying here for a long time has all been for nothing!"
"You don't understand Leonard…Organization XIII has returned," Neil informs to Leonard.
"Organization XIII preposterous!" Leonard says defiantly in a British accent, "They've been defeated by the Deveaux Society 7 years ago."
"Defeated but not destroyed," Peter Petrelli finally says, "I may not know anything much about this Organization…but Neil here came from a dark future to save us all from an impending doom."
"A time traveler?" Leonard says as he scans Neil's mind and says afterwards, "What…what you say might be true, but why not stop the catastrophe right here and right now before anything else happens?"
"Because…I can't fight the villains on my own," Neil informs Leonard, "We need to help one another if we are to save the future…"
The doorbell suddenly rings as Leonard looked surprised.
"Who is it?" Neil asks the old man, who looks a bit fearful.
"An agent of the Company is here…and looks like he has a relative of Peter with him," Leonard informs the two, who nods at each other and they hide beneath the couches
The door suddenly bursts open as a man with glasses enters the room with his gun raised and he says, "Leonard Grant! Stay where you are or I will shoot you!"
Peter stands up with electricity in the form of a ball in his right hand and throws it at the agent, who is thrown to the wall and a familiar voice says, "Gael!"
Neil jumps out of the couch and draws his sword quickly as the another man enters the room and Neil places his sword an inch before touching the man's neck.
"Na…Nathan?" Peter says in surprise as he looks at his brother.
"Pe…Peter?" the older Petrelli says as Neil lowers his sword and the future warrior says, "What's going on here?"
Mohinder Suresh and Maya, Primatech Facility, Odessa, Texas
"What do you mean you're giving up?" Maya asks Mohinder, "You already help me by giving me this…medicine to stop my powers. Can't you do anything to remove it?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm in no position to help you," Mohinder says as he is seen packing some things into a briefcase, "I'm at a dead end. There is nothing else I can do about these powers. The Company has created the pills to stop them and Molly is with safe hands. I think it's about time for me to go back to India."
"But I came from South America to find you," Maya says as she takes a step toward Mohinder, "For a cure…"
"But I can't help you, don't you understand that word? My research has reached its dead end. I just hope for the others here to find the cure that you seek," Mohinder says as he closes his briefcase as he was about to leave when Maya stops him.
"But you haven't even tried! It's not fair…" Maya says as black tears go out of her eyes and Mohinder suddenly looks a bit pale, "Please…I uh…"
Maya closes her eyes and the black tears go back to her eyes, "I'm sorry…I should leave…"
Maya then walks away from Mohinder, who runs after her and manages to grab her hand and he says says, "No…Wait! Tell me what just happened…when you get upset or angry…these abilities manifest…has it always been like this?"
"Yes," Maya replies as she looks at Mohinder, "It just happens when I'm scared or…angry…it suddenly happens."
"And how do you stop it?" Mohinder asks with interest Maya as he drops down his bags and his briefcase.
"I just…calm down for some time," Maya tells Mohinder, who nods in understanding.
"I see…sometime is a sympathetic nervous response…" Mohinder says as he walks away and paces back and forth as he explains something, "You see there is a mind and body connection…the neuro pathways that control…"
"What are you talking about?" Maya asks worriedly.
"Fight or flight…" Mohinder suddenly says as he looks at Maya with an incredulous look, "The adrenal glands…they control our stress levels. My father had it all wrong. It appeared that he created a formula to isolate these genes of these abilities…"
Mohinder opens his locked laptop by a corner and unlocks it. Mohinder then runs a program and inputs several commands, "I was trying to make some sense out of it, but I was actually looking at the wrong place!"
Mohinder then takes out a syringe from a corner as he looks at Maya, "These abilities are produced by adrenaline…and all I have to do…is to make you mad again."
Angela Petrelli, Somewhere Unknown
The lights and walls of a certain hallways looked like a storm has run into it. Sparks are seen coming out from lights every ten seconds. On the floor lies Monica Dawson and Micah Dawson, dead.
Hiro Nakamura is seen pinned to the wall with his sword stuck at his chest. Mark Parkman is sitting by a chair and has his neck slit. Claire Bennet is seen running in the hallways as Noah Bennet shouts in pain and falls to the floor. Peter Petrelli is seen lying down by a corner and is also dead with cuts, bruises and blood covering him.
A blue jacketed figure suddenly appears and chokes Claire as he pins Claire to the wall. Claire is seen choking and is almost out of breath as the figure throws her to the floor. The black American's right hand turns into a metal hand that looks like that of a crab's claw. Claire tries to stand up as the black American swings his hand in the air toward Claire and the hand beheads her.
The black man then stands up and Adam Monroe, a black suited Niki Sanders and Maury Parkman walks beside him and face a shocked Angela Petrelli.
Sylar suddenly appears behind her and says, "Boo!"
Angela Petrelli suddenly wakes up as she sees the Doctor opening the door of the Company SUV and the man says, "Ms. Angela…we're already here."
"Did something happen?" Anderson asks the Petrelli with Precognitive Dreams as she answers, "No there is no problem…lets go."
The Petrelli exits the car and Sylar's unconscious body is seen being placed on a stretcher that is to be brought into the building in front of Angela Petrelli.
What will now happen now to Future Peter and Matt Parkman?
What will happen next inside the house of Leonard Grant as the Petrelli brothers are reunited with Nathan working alongside a Company employee?
What would happen to HRG now that he is captured by Elle? And what would be Claire's reaction when she hears this from Michael?
What will happen to Niki Sanders, who has a new personality named Tracy Strauss?
All of these questions together with other questions shall be answered in future chapters of Heroes Volume III: Villains
