Dylan: Can't believe one of our own tied to hurt you
Jack: Me neither
Dylan: Won't happen for long
Jack: Thanks for lookin out for me
Dylan got back to the lab and quickly ran to Jack's room to find him and Danny sleep holding hands. Dylan took a sigh of relief then went to his room and laid down. She will pay for this, I swear it! Isabelle came in and sat next to Dylan, "I'm sorry Jack got hurt. If only we were there to help him in time." Dylan looked at her and sighed, "I know…but at least he's ok right? I mean he's still living and breathing just with a couple battle scars." Dylan smiled at Danny and walked to where Jack lay sleeping. Jack still lay sleep as he was having another session with Cole.
Cole was chasing Jack throughout the city firing lightning at his back. Jack ran along the rooftops and fired back at Cole. "Hey, kid, try harder than that!" Cole shot a tri lightning blast at Jack making the boy dodge and fire back at him. Cole ran around the building Jack was on and began to rapid fire at him to keep him contained. Jack watched Cole closely then felt a new power radiating inside him and looked at Cole. Without warning, Jack unleashed this power and shot much bigger pulses of electricity at a much faster rate catching Cole by surprise and forced him to take cover behind a car. Seeing an opening, He shot a perfect tri-bolt at the car ending in a spectacular explosion. Cole limped over to a fuse box and drained the electricity from it regaining his health. Jack leapt off the building and went to check on Cole earning a pat on the back, "Nice job Jack, can't remember the last time I had fun." Jack nodded to Cole who waved and walked off, "See you later, Jack" Jack waved back and watched the world break down and disappear.
Jack woke up to Dylan and Danny in his room sleeping. He got out his bed and found he was perfectly healed then woke up his 2 best friends. Dylan woke up and happily slugged Jack in the arm while Danny ran and hugged him close and pecked his cheek. Dylan witnessed the display of affection and decided to leave the 2 to have some time alone. Jack hugged Danny then kissed her back causing her to loosen up and hold him close not wanting to let go. Jack and Danny sat down together and looked into the training room with smiles on their faces. "Dylan was very worried about you and was willing to go great lengths to make sure you woke up again." Jack smiled and hugged her close and had her lean her head on his shoulders, "I know. He and I go really way back to the orphanage where the government wanted to split us up." Danny looked at Jack with a confused expression on her face, "Why were they after you?" Jack sighed and looked at his palms the looked his lover in the eyes, "Because we were thieves and from what we know, our parents found a way to alter the human body in a way no other human could." Danny was shocked and put her hands up to her mouth, "Your parents found a way to make a conduit?!" Jack nodded and twiddled his fingers, "What started out as a cure for blindness and cancer turned out to be a permanent PED." Danny smirked at Jack and hugged him, "I wish I could've met them, to meet the people who saved my life." Jack looked at her and tilted his head, "What do you mean?" Danny sighed and stood up then took off her shirt revealing to Jack some scarred tissue that shows her having to have had multiple surgeries. "I had cancer. Not to mention I had been infected by a deadly virus and had given up hope and accepted the inevitable. I was then taken in and given a syringe then told to inject myself with it. Next thing I knew, my cancer cells were gone and the virus couldn't survive in my body." Jack looked down and let a tear fall out thinking what it must have felt like to suffer like that with no one to be by you to give you comfort. "Then the government to me here and now I have a better life. What about you? What are the specifics of your life?" Danny sat next to Jack and heard him sigh.
Flashback (1st Person)
It was me and Dylan living in an orphanage on the west side of the city. Dylan and I had just gotten done cleaning our room and were heading downstairs to play outside when we saw those government agents. They told us to go with them and we bailed causing them to give chase. Dylan opened our room window and helped me into the fire escape then got us onto the rooftops. Those agents tried to chase us but we were too fast for them and got away. The last I heard of them were, "We will get you one way or another." For a couple years, we've been living in an empty water tower and ate food that we stole from the ground below. When we thought we were safe, we tried to come to this lab to test an experiment for money and that's when we received our powers.
Back
Danny hugged Jack and kissed him slow. Jack couldn't resist her so he embraced her and kissed her back. After a minute, Danny pushed Jack down and got on top of him causing them both to blush, "Danny?" Danny looked at Jack, "Yeah." Jack looked away and cleared his throat, "Are you sure we should…you know." Danny nodded and looked back at Jack, "I've never been surer of anything else in my life Jack. I really want us to do this to prove that we love each other the same way. Jack I want you to know that I love you." Jack looked into her eyes and smiled, "I love you too Danny."
