Recap:
"Mitchie?" I turned around and couldn't believe who I saw standing in front of me.
End of Recap
"Oh my gosh. Hi, Johnny." I said nervously. I mean, if your totally hot ex showed up at the club you were at after 2 years of them being America's heroes acting all nonchalant wouldn't you be suspicious too? "How ya been?" He asked pulling me into a hug. Oh, how I missed those hugs. "Awesome. How about you, mister hero?" I asked before taking a sip of a martini. I don't drink but desperate times call for desperate measures. "That's exactly what I've been meaning to talk to you about. Can we talk outside for a minute?" He asked sounding really professional. So unlike Johnny to be serious, it must be really urgent. Once we were outside, he had turned around to face me. "You know that mission we all took with Victor a few years back?" He asked. I nodded slowly. "Well, there is a possibility that you may have powers like me." "Actually, there isn't a possibility, it's a fact. I have powers." I said with a note of "What now!" in my voice. "Really?" He yelled in surprise. I gave him a look. "No... I didn't mean it like that, it's just… Wow." Johnny baffled. "It's fine. Is there somewhere where I can safely show you my powers?" I asked, looking around cautiously. "Um yeah. I'll drive you." With that, I followed Johnny to his car and he drove us out to a building I knew too well. Baxter Building.
At Reed's Apartment
"Johnny, is that you? And who is this girl- Mitchie!" Sue said, running toward us as we entered the apartment. "Hey sis, do you know where Reed is? It's kind of important."
"Um yeah, he's in the lab." Sue replied looking at us strangely. I followed her gaze and noticed Johnny was holding my hand. I blushed lightly as we walked toward the lab.
"Hey Reed, I need you to do a power analysis on Mitchie." Johnny said as we walked through the glass doors. "OK. Mitchie just show us what you can do." I looked at them nervously. I decided to do something simple. I lightly froze the cup of water next to me. "OK. Try something with ice but more power this time." I nodded lightly. In an instant, the ice shot out like a dagger and pinned Johnny to the wall by his shirt. "Sorry." I said sheepishly. "What else can you do?" Reed said in astonishment, not paying attention to Johnny. I turned to Johnny, mouthed out "I'm sorry", and did that force thingy where I can choke people. "Fascinating." Reed said, clearly in Nerd world. "Um Reed, do you want me to stop now?" I asked, still choking my ex with guilt. "Uh yeah, sure go ahead." Reed said, waving his hand in my direction, still in a trance. I let go and Johnny immediately gave me a look that was like, "What the heck was that for?" "Sorry Johnny, but it was for science." I said slyly before slinking my way out of the lab. He didn't come after me, probably checking me out, that little pervert. "Hey…..
