"Hi Mom!" Metrocity called as she walked in the door.

"Metrocity, you're home!" Roxanne gushed from the kitchen. Metrocity could never forget how badly Roxanne had freaked out the first time she'd gone to jail, but these days it was as natural and unavoidable a thing as eating.

Roxanne walked into the living area, first-aid kit in hand, gave her young teenager a kiss, and started going over her wounds. When Metrocity was all patched up, Roxanne sat down beside her on the couch.

"How'd today go?" Roxanne asked.

"Same as any other day," Metrocity replied as she took off her cape, taking out a sewing kit Minion had hidden under the cushions and beginning to patch it up. "I broke out of jail again, got caught by Bernard again, lead him off on a rampage of destruction, brought down the Metro City Clocktower, disintegrated three statues, and spit in Metro Boy's eye. Then I got sent back to jail, whereupon I busted out. Again. A pretty black-and-white day."

"Sounds pretty exciting to me!" Megamind exclaimed, walking in with Damion scowling along behind him. "So tell me; was Metro Man there?"

"Nope."

"Oh." He sounded disappointed, but the emotion was quickly stamped out. "Did you at least give Metro Boy any good taunts?" Metrocity laughed aloud at the childish look on her father's face, and Roxanne couldn't help but chuckle herself.

"Well, I lorded over him the fact that he doesn't have a Mother, and boy did he turn red when I mentioned his lack of superstrength! He may seem strong, but if he didn't work out he'd be nothing but a wimp who could fly." Megamind nodded and turned to Damion.

"You can go back to whatever you were doing. You're off the hook—this time. Just don't crank call the police ever again—they'll track you right back here!" Damion grumbled, but sped off again seconds later. Megamind sat down in the chair across from Roxanne and Metrocity and was silent. An unfamiliar tension seemed to settle around them, and Metrocity set her cape aside.

"What's up?" she questioned, leaning back and letting the antibiotic on her face sit.

"Metrocity, we're very worried about you lately," Megamind started off, clasping his hands in his lap.

"We think it might be best if you lie low for awhile," Roxanne finished.

"But why?" Metrocity demanded. "I've been on a roll lately, and I haven't put anyone in the house in danger in ages!" she added, defensive and worried. Her parents wanted to revoke her rights to being a supervillain? It was unheard of!

"Metrocity, it's not like it's forever," Roxanne told her daughter. "We just want you to rest for a few months. You've been going at this very aggressively since you were seven, and I think you need a break, if only a small one. I've already taken steps to install you in school—"

"Shool!" Metrocity cried, standing up. "Those savages my age can't even construct a proper thermal heating device correctly! I'll never be able to survove the insufferable stupidity of my agemates!"

"Metrocity, we're enrolling you in Metrocity High, and that's that! You'll have to use your holowatch to create a disguise, and you'll have to come up with your own name. Just think of it as a mission."

"A mission! But I won't even be able to destroy things! And Bernard goes to school there! How can I possibly be in the same vicinity as my arch nemesis and not blow him up!"

"You'll just have to try," Roxanne said. "And if you don't get it right, the most they can do is throw you back in prison. OK?" There was a lengthy pause. Then Metrocity sighed.

"I guess so..."
