A/N: Oh my freaking GOSH! I was just reading though the first chapter and I noticed the spelling/grammatical errors! EW! That's what I get for writing at four in the morning with zero sleep and no caffeine.. I guess the end result was alright, save for those mistakes! I apologize! Hopefully this chapter will be a little better in that department.. Lol. And maybe a little bit more interesting since there will be more dialogue and actions than the last one.

Note: Warren might be a little OOC in this chapter... I'm not gonna say how or why, because it will ruin this chapter before it even starts! Lol. You'll see when you get to it, and if you don't, than 'Yay me! I did well.' lol.

Enjoy!

::Three Months Later::

"Will, Sidonie! Come downstairs and have some breakfast before you miss your bus!" Josie called from the kitchen. She smiled as she heard two pairs of feet stomping down the stairs.

"Sorry mom, Sid takes forever in the bathroom!" Will said breathlessly, shoving his arms into his jacket and zipping it up.

"Well, excuse me, Mister Hero! I just so happen to have my first day of work at your little school! By the way, Josie, thank you so much for offering to babysit so I can take this job!" Sidonie said in a rush as she buttoned up her coat.

"It's really no problem, Sid." Josie smiled, gently lifting Gray from his playpen. He cooed and gurgled happily, pulling at her hair.

"Good morning, kids! Honey!"said Steve as he walked into the kitchen. He crossed over to the counter and kissed Josie gently. "Ready for your first day, Sid?"

"Yes! I am so excited that they offered me a job!" Sid grinned around a bite of toast. "I really don't think, after being out of school for so long, that I'd be able to catch up and follow the curriculum there. After all, I've only ever been to a civilian highschool, I would think that the curriculum would be quite different than what I'm used to. " she smiled sheepishly.

"That's right. And Nurse Spex could really use an assistant. Especially today; we're gonna have another round of Save the Citizen." Will grinned devilishly. "You're starting on a good day."

Will, Steve, and Josie all laughed while Sidonie just raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, that's right. You don't know what Save the Citizen is!" Will jumped off the counter and sat across from her, excitement bubbling up through his voice. "So, basically there's two teams: the Heroes and the Villains, and the basic idea of the game is to-"

"You can finish telling her about it on the bus, Will. Hurry up and finish your breakfast, your bus should be here soon!" Josie said, cradling Gray against her chest, holding a bottle to his mouth. He slurped eagerly, causing her to giggle. "Oh, Layla! Good morning!"

"Good morning, everyone!" she said happily. She walked over to where Josie was standing with Gray, and gently ran her fingers through his soft ginger hair. "My gosh, Sid! He gets even bigger every time I see him!"

"Yeah.. He's like an adorable little weed. He grows constantly!" Everyone laughed at Sidonie's reference to plants. Layla grinned impishly; she had made an impression the last few months, making a point to teach Sid about every kind of plant that existed in LA. "Not that my son is a weed, he's more like a little flower. A very masculine one." she added, giggling.

Will laughed and wiped the milk from his upper lip. "Are we ready to go?"

Layla looked at her watch and stood. "Yeah, the bus should be here in about... twenty seconds."

"Yeah, you're going to like the bus driver, Sid. He's always punctual, and he drives like a maniac!"

Will rubbed his hands together. "Especially on the first day when the freshman aren't expecting it."

"It? What it?" Sid raised an eyebrow.

"It." Will waved his hands in front of him in a somewhat-mystical manner, smirked, and ran out the door.

"Will Stronghold, you come back here and get your lunch!" Josie called.

"I'll get it, Mrs. Stronghold." Layla said, taking the sack lunch and walked to the door. "Ready, Sid?"

"Yeah." Sid said, a little unsure. She didn't like surprises, and what Will was saying was starting to worry her. "Hey, Layla..."

"Hm?" Layla said, walking down the sidewalk towards the bus stop.

"What's the 'it' Will was talking about?"

Layla just laughed. "It's nothing bad, I promise! That is.. Unless you dislike heights."

And Sid disliked heights very much. She gulped. "And just what is the school bus doing... height-wise?"

"Um..." Layla could tell that she hadn't made the situation better. "Don't worry, we all have seatbelts!" she said in a rush, grabbed Sid's arm, and picked up her pace to a jog. "Bus's here!"

When the bus finally landed at Sky High, Sidonie was glued to her seat, her face completely paled, and her fingers were gripping the seat in front of her so tightly that her knuckles were turning white.

"Sid? Sid, we're on level ground, now... well, level floating ground.." Will said, trying to pry off Sid's vise-like grip on the backrest.

"Why... didn't you tell me.. what the 'it' was..?" Sid said shakily.

"Because I knew that you hated heights and flying. You were a lot better when I brought you from Boston, what was so different about that time?" Will asked, still trying to loosen her grip.

"Because... you are a strong super hero, and this is an enormous bus with lots of people in it that could easily run out of gas, or demon juice, or whatever sustenance it runs on, and plummet through the air. Your powers don't leave you, but the bus's can!"

"That is completely untrue, miss." Ron said, turning back in his seat and tipped his hat at her. "I keep this bus in tip-top shape, there is no chance of that ever happening."

"Reassuring." Sid said faintly and slowly got to her feet and walked stiffly off of the bus. "So when is this 'Save the Citizen' game going to start?" she asked Will when he finally caught up with her.

"It's going to be taking place seventh period." chimed in a short, black boy fully clad in orange.

"Ah, thanks." said Sid, smiling at him. "I'm Sidonie."

"Ethan." he smiled. "So you're Will's cousin?"

"That's right."

"Good to meet you." Ethan smiled. He was about to say something else when the bell rang.

"Oh! Better get to class. You better hurry Sid, I don't think Spex will appreciate you coming in late! Good luck!" Will gave her a hug before he and Ethan took off to Mr. Medulla's class.

Sidonie decided that she liked the eccentric old nurse Spex. Though she was very odd and random at times, she was very kind and cared about the students very much.

She also decided that she liked this game called 'Save the Citizen'. Watching from the sidelines was almost as intense as actually being in the arena.

She jumped from the counter when a student was brought into the makeshift nurse's office on a stretcher.

He was quite tall, around six foot two, his head and his legs, from the knee down, were dangling off of the ends. She could hear his rasping pants and the moans of pain which he seemed desperate to keep in.

"Nurse Spex!" Sid called as she ran over to where he now lay on a bed. She leant in and looked more closely at his physique. His chiseled face was drawn in pain, and his long brown hair stuck to the sweat on his face. She moved his hair aside to see that there was a large gash that ran from his collarbone to his jaw on his left side.

She grabbed a washcloth and poured some rubbing alcohol on it and dabbed at the wound. He let out a sharp hiss and his body twisted, though he tried his best to keep quiet. His eyes opened and Sid gasped. It was like he had twin flames behind his dark irises.

She was pulled out of a trance when he gasped turned his face to the side, his handsome features once again twisting in pain. She looked down at the rest of his body and saw that there were long lines of blood staining the black fabric of his muscle shirt.

"SPEX!" she shouted again, truly worried. These were the worst injuries she'd seen the whole duration of the game.

"What is it Si- Oh dear.." Spex said as she walked into the room. She dropped the clean, folded towels on the ground and quickly made her way to the bed. "Take off his shirt, Sid, so I can give him an x-ray. Quickly!"

Sidonie nodded and gently grasped the bottom hem of his shirt. She slowly pulled it upward, trying not to let the cloth aggravate the wounds. She winced when she noticed that some of the blood was partially dry, and was sticking to the shirt. 'He must have stayed in a long time to get this many injuries...' she thought.

His long fingers gripped the edges of the bed and he shut his eyes tightly, a grimace coming to his face.

"I'm sorry.." Sid said softly as she finished pulling the shirt over his head. He opened his eyes for a second, stared into hers, then closed them again.

"Its.. Okay.." he said softly, his voice gruff and raspy. He let out a shuddering breath and turned his face away once more. Sid felt her heart ache as she watched him, he seemed to be trying so hard to keep his expression calm and his pain inside, but she knew, with injuries like these, it would be impossible to do so.

"Warren, I need you to look at me." Spex said as she came back over to the bed, alcohol, swabs, a needle, and some thread loaded in her arms. She set them down on the end table as he turned back to face them. "How did this happen?"

"Speed.. He's a fucking cheat... pulled the same shit he did freshman year.." he said through clenched teeth. Spex didn't seem to mind his coarse language at all. Warren took a breath and continued. "He... waited until I wasn't paying attention... then ran around me... it was like a fucking wind tunnel... he was going too fast.. Will couldn't stop him.."

Spex nodded. "The air that was created from him made a vacuum-like effect.. The speed of the wind could be like knives at that kind of speed.." she sighed and shook her head. "Powers better give him one hell-of-a detention for this one."

A pained, but triumphant smirk came to Warren's face. "Four months worth.. of detention and.. janitorial duty for five."

"Serves him right," Spex said, then added under her breath, "jackass.." Sid kept in a snort of laughter. "Sid, I need you to get behind him and use your powers while I stitch him up. Luckily, there are no broken bones."

Sid nodded. "That's good." she said, and moved to sit behind Warren on a low stool. She gently put her fingertips to his temples and closed her eyes, a trance-like expression on her face. A small smile lifted the corners of her mouth when she felt him relax and calm down considerably. She couldn't stop the pain, but she could keep his mind on other things. She couldn't help but smile as images from his childhood flashed through both of their minds.

"Done." Spex said. "Do you think you can stand, Warren?"

Sidonie opened her eyes and pulled her fingers away from his face. She glanced down at him to see that all of the wounds on his chest were sewn and bandaged, along with something else. She pulled her gaze back upwards, trying her hardest not to look at his chest again.

"I think so.." he said, sitting up and slowly getting to his feet. "Thanks, Spex. And... you are?"

"Sidonie Spencer." Sid said softly, trying to keep her eyes on his face, though that wasn't helping much either; this guy was completely gorgeous.

"Warren Peace. Thanks for everything." he gave her a small smile and pulled on the plain white t-shirt Spex handed him with a little difficulty. The back of it got caught on the top of the bandages around his chest. Sid reached a slightly trembling hand and pulled it down, gasping as she brushed against his hot skin.

"Spex, I think he's burning up! His temperature is definitely not normal!" Sid rushed to stand in front of him, and stood on her tiptoes to press her palm to his forehead. She raised an eyebrow when she heard a snorting laugh come from Spex.

Warren smirked at her and put his hand around her wrist, bringing it back down to her side. After letting go, he lifted his index finger in front of her face, a small flame came from the tip of it.

"Sidonie, I'm always burning up." he smiled, the flame vanished. He nodded to the both of them and picked up his ruined muscle shirt and left the gym.
