"We need somewhere to hide out," Peter said nervously scanning the room for guards.
"I have a house down the road," Elle suggested.
"Perfect," Mohinder snapped. "Now let's get out of here."
"I'm not coming, I must find Ando," Hiro said while running off into the busy crowds wearing an orange jump suit.
Suddenly a government agent came towards them. Peter grabbed Elle's arm, absorbed her ability and shot a lightning bolt that almost burnt the guy to ashes. Elle was surprised; she had never seen Peter so aggressive. She remembered him as a helpless guy stuck in a world he knew nothing about. Now he's more ... dangerous. Elle knew she's always had a thing for bad boys, and sleeping with Sylar took it to a whole new definition of bad boys. So why was she starting to fall for the Petrelli known for compassion and selflessness, but is she truly over Sylar though?

"This is your house?" Peter asked.
"That's not a house, that's a freaking mansion," Matt remarked.
"I inherited all of my dad's assets; he has a mansion in almost every state,"
"Your father must have struck gold then," Matt joked.
Peter chuckled; he and Mohinder were the only ones that knew who her father was and she wanted to keep it that way, Bishops don't exactly have the best reputation. Her father was known for killing hundreds to keep Primatech under wraps. Elle walked up onto the front step and placed her hand on a plaque on the wall.
"Finger Prints recognised, Elle Bishop, Access Granted," a computerised voice said.
"Bishop, you're not a relation to Bob Bishop by any chance are you?" Matt asked.
"Yep, he was my dad," Elle replied trying not to cry. She had ignored his death for so long, trying to forget about him, she had always just done what her father told her to, without him life was proving to be most difficult.
"Oh, I didn't know he had kids."
Elle typed in a series of passwords into a keyboard stuck to the second door.
"What happened to a good old fashioned key?" Peter questioned.
Elle smiled and went back to typing, the door slid open. They all walked inside, there were pictures covering the walls of Bob, Elle and her Mother. Elle must have been about 6 in the photos, her mother was very pretty, and she had long blond curly hair. There was a large gold statue of her mother in the main room.
"What's that statue of," Tracey asked admiring it.
"That's my mother, her and my dad had an argument one day, she wanted a divorce, he didn't, and she threatened to take him for all he had, so he turned her into gold."
Tracey was horrified; she thought her family was messed up.
Elle laughed, "My dad had a carving made of her on their wedding day, and he turned it into gold. That was his ability: the golden touch."
"Oh, do you have any clothes here?" Tracey asked desperate to get out of the giant carrot jumps suit."
"Down the hall, second right."
Mohinder and Matt followed her.
"I'm sorry," Peter said walking up to Elle; she gave him a confused look. "About using you to get out of Primatech."
"Oh, right, he he, that's ok, you brought a little excitement to the place," Elle reminisced. "My dad was amazed at how you fell for Adam's story, he seemed to think that we you under control.
"Yer, I think all of our parents are like that, you should meet my mother, now she is a piece of work." Peter laughed.
"Angela Petrelli? Oh, we've met, she's given me bits of... advice over the years: don't blow up the IV, don't turn out like your mother, obey my orders, and stay away from my sons. You know bits and pieces.
"Stay away from my sons?"
"Hmmmm long story."
Author's note: I want Peter and Elle to get together, but I'm just building up the chemistry first, maybe something will happen in the next chapter. Thank you to: Navybee and Shattered-clear for the reviews.
