Chapter 3: Verdict is In

Rhodes was talking with Simon,

"What do you think?"

Simon shrugged,

"I don't see the problem here. Leon and Farrah both know the rules; no underage sex."

Monica Rambeau, the heroine Pulsar, shook her head,

"Still, they were caught in the same bed. I don't care if it was the storm."

Vision also commented,

"From what my scans indicated, Persiana and Crisis were telling the truth, that nothing between them occurred."

Monica sighed,

"It's your call, Jim."

Rhody thought for a moment before answering,

"I think that maybe an extra hour in the Playroom might be an order."

The light-powered heroine said,

"For how long?"

"Maybe just today."

Simon shrugged,

"I guess that's fair."

As the adults were heading out, they saw Crisis and Hercules attempting to separate the two brawling girls. Carol shouted,

"Hey, furball; how does it feel to know you're only half human?"

Farrah shot back,

"How'd you like half my foot up your ass?"

Rhody ordered,

"Enough. Persiana, you and Crisis have to work out in the Playroom an extra hour today."
Farrah was stunned,

"What? What the hell is that for? We didn't do anything!"
Leon tried to get a word in,

"Farrah, I think they're being lenient on us."

The white-haired cat-girl stormed off,

"Screw it; I'm going for a walk!"
She dashed out of the compound, over the stone wall, and out into the city. Leon sighed, wishing his girlfriend did not have such a hot temper.

Monica said,

"I should go after her."
The red-eyed hero commented,

"Maybe we should leave her alone for a little bit. You know, wait until she cools down."

Vision said,

"Is that wise?"

Leon nodded,

"Yeah, Farrah tends to be a bit emotional when it concerns me, so I think the best thing she can do right now is just to let her be for a while."

Natasha asked,

"And, you're not concerned with her getting into trouble?"

Leon looked at his red-headed teammate,

"Well, to be honest, I am. But, she'll call if she's in trouble. I'm sure of it."

Meanwhile…

Persiana was flipping across the streets of San Diego, performing dangerous aerials and flips that made the people look up as a quick shadow moved above them. The white-haired were-cat grumbled to herself,

"Stupid War Machine. We didn't do anything and he's getting up Leon's ass, for something I did."

She landed on a parking meter like a cat and did a leapfrog to a building ledge, not breaking her stride at all,

"It isn't fair. I'm scared of lightning and thunder, especially when it was so intense. Why can't they just see that?"

She dashed off the edge and somersaulted into the air, her feline form granting tremendous agility and speed. She landed on all fours on a small roof top and stopped for a moment, feeling the wind in her hair. She looked down below and sighed,

"This is all my fault. If I wasn't scared of the thunder and lightning like I was, maybe Leon wouldn't have got into trouble."

She then continued onward to a local park. The park was expansive, and Farrah smiled. She could lose herself exploring for hours here, just to get away. The compound had its own forest there as well, but here, the territory was unfamiliar to her. It made for great exploring.

She jumped on the first tree branch and scurried up the tree. Farrah got a good look and kept climbing, higher and higher, until she reached a higher and larger tree branch. She decided to curl up here and survey the park, wondering what else was there that she could see.

She had no idea, however, that someone was watching her…

As she continues the rounds, Persiana is attacked by the person watching her. Who is it? Stay tuned, fellow readers!
