Chapter Two: Forward and Backward
New York City August 10th 2010
Mohinder Suresh: Many people frequently try to forget the past. They do not realize that our pasts, presents, and futures constantly shape who we are and what we will become. However, as history so often repeats itself, can all of us truly become better than our former selves or are we always destined to repeat history?
Hiro is sleeping in light blue airplane pajamas without blankets as Ando(wearing a light blue shirt and beige khaki pants) knocks on his door.
Ando(in japanese): Hiro! Hiro! Time to wake up and pick up the girls! (He opens the door after a minute)
Hiro(in japanese): A little longer, Kimiko please. Oh and can you make some waffles too?
Ando(in japanese): Ok that's it. (he grabs Hiro's arms and shakes him) Hiro! The apartment is on fire!
Hiro: Ahhhh! (he opens his eyes and gets up quickly) He then starts to run around still yelling and the goes out the door but then pauses. Ando is smiling.
Hiro(in japanese): Wait a minute. There is no fire! Ando, you liar!
Ando(in japanese as he laughs): There was no other way to wake you up. You seemed like you were really tired.
Hiro(in japanese): I had that dream about her again. Hours ago though. (he hangs his head down)
Ando(in japanese): I know. It's ok, moving on takes time. You might someone else.
Hiro(in japanese): How can I? She was my Gwen Stacy.
Ando(in japanese): You can find your Mary Jane. We can talk about that later, we have four women to pick up, one of whom is my beautiful fiancee and your sister who will kill us if we are late.
Hiro(in japanese): You are right. Come, I will get dressed and we shall greet them as chivalrous knights.
Ando(in japanese as he laughs and waits for him at the door): Don't take too long, my fellow knight!

Cut to Peter(red shirt with black bird crest and blue jeans),Gabriel(wearing dark green sleeveless shirt and blue jeans) and Ray(wearing a yellow shirt with blue jeans) driving to the same airport that Hiro and Ando are going to. Peter is at the front seat driving with Gabriel.
Ray: So let me get this straight. Hiro's got a cousin who has powers like us and her friend and we're going to help them adjust?
Peter: Yea, they told Hiro and Ando a few months ago, so they're going to help them and they might just end up staying here permanently to protect them.
Ray: Yeah, man family's one of the most important things in life. Plus, with the way the world sees us, we got to stick together. Oh Gabriel, Hiro and Ando know you're on our side right?
Gabriel:They do, but Ando is less convinced of it than Hiro, I can't blame him. The road to redemption will be long, there's so much I have to atone for.
Ray: I know, I've done things with my powers that I regret too. My brother has powers but he used them the wrong way, and I wish he could try to change like you. I should know, I was the one who had to arrest him.
Peter: Guys, as touching as this, we have to-(he stops his car abruptly as he notices a young short haired blond woman(played by Brie Larson) wearing jeans and a black t shirt decorated with a skull and a small red ribbon on top.)
Ray: What the hell was that!
Peter: I don't know. There's something about that girl that's really familiar, but I can't figure out why.
Gabriel: Whoever she is, I have a bad feeling about her. I say we leave right now. Besides, Hiro and Ando are waiting for us.
Blond woman: Hey, you guys going to come out and help me or what?
Peter: She said she needs help, maybe she's lost. We should go out and help her. (Peter gets out of the car)
Gabriel: Don't say I didn't warn you guys. (He also gets out of the car)
Ray: As long as she doesn't ask us for a ride, we should be ok. Hitchhiking usually doesn't end well. This is one of those times I wish I was a mind reader.
Peter: Hi, I'm Peter Petrelli, are you lost?
Blond woman: My name is Kat and don't worry I'm not lost.( She smiles deviously) I found exactly what I'm looking for.
Ray: Look Peter, I really think we should-(Kat emits a rose with a very long light green stem to grab his leg to bring him down and he lands on the floor yelling)
Peter: Ray-(he runs to help him before Kat tries to grab him with another stem but Gabriel stops her with his telekinesis and she screams as she floats in the air)
Kat: Put me down, you damn psychopath! (tears form in her eyes)
Gabriel: Funny how I'm the psychopath and you're the one trying to kill us.
Kat: If it were up to me, you'd all be dead but he doesn't want it!
Peter: Who doesn't want us dead?
Kat: Ha, like I'd tell you!
A feminine voice: Oh, we'll see about that.(They all turn around to see Claire wearing a red short sleeved shirt with light blue jeans and Gretchen in a dark blue long shirt also in light blue jeans)
Claire: Bring her down, I'd like to spend a little time with her.
Gabriel brought her down to the ground immediately. Kat got up quickly with a smirk.
Kat: Oh wow, I'm so scared of a girl who's only power is not dying when she should.
Gretchen: You talk about her like that again and I'll-(ivy sprouts from her hand and reaches for Gretchen's neck, choking her)
Claire: Gretchen!
Kat attempts to attack Claire, but before she can, time is stopped.
Hiro(in japanese): I did it!
He is wearing khaki shorts and a red hawaiian shirt, Ando is with him wearing a black Bleach anime t -shirt with the main character Ichigo on the front standing up and holding a sword. He is joined by Kimiko, Mirei(played by Jenna Ushkowitz), Yoko(played by Rinko Kikuchi), and Saki (played by Hikaru Utada)
Mirei(in japanese): That's really cool!
Kimiko looks like she is about to faint. Ando told her months ago about Hiro's and his powers and she still hadn't gotten used to it. She gasped and Ando held out his arms to grab her before she fainted.
Hiro(in japanese): Still not used to it?
Ando(in japanese): What do you think?
Yoko(in japanese): I don't know if I'll ever get used to it.
Mirei(in japanese): Who is this girl? The only way we're going to find out is if you unfreeze time, Hiro onii san.
Saki(in japanese): She's right, we need to know what we're up against.
Hiro(in japanese): You girls are right. We must know our enemies. (he unfreezes time)
As soon as he does, Kat begins to attack Claire but Gabriel pushes her and throws her down on the grass before she can with his telekinesis.
Kat: You know what? I've had it with you all! I'm sure he won't mind if I come back early, I've already got plenty of information to give. (she teleports quickly before another word is said)
Claire: Damn it, she got away!
Mirei: You did your best, don't worry. She'll be back.
Hiro: Oh I did not introduce you all to my family! Everyone, these three women that came with my sister Kimiko, are my cousins Mirei, Yoko, and the one with the short hair and white Hello Kitty shirt is Mirei's friend Saki.
Claire: Nice to meet you guys. (they all shake hands)
Peter: Good to meet you ladies. Mirei, Hiro told me that you and Saki have powers like us.
Mirei: Yes it's true. I have more than one, invisibility and energy absorption.
Saki: I have the same powers as Hiro(she turns to him smiling)
Hiro(smiles back): Yes, she does and this will help us bond further as friends and allies.
Mirei: I wish we had more time to help you guys with our powers.
Peter: I'm sure we'll see her again. She obviously doesn't work alone.
Gabriel: Now we have to find out who she's working for.
Claire(turns to Gabriel with a look of distrust): You're helping us now?
Hiro: He is on a path to redemption!
Claire: Wow, I've never heard that before.
Gabriel: Look Claire, I know you don't trust me and I understand why, but please believe me I have nothing but the best intentions and just want to help. I've been working with Peter for months now saving other's people's lives.
Mirei: That's amazing that you really want to change. It takes a strong and special person to do that. (she smiles at him)
Gabriel: Oh thanks.(he smiles shyly)
Gretchen: Yeah, well we'll believe it when we see it.
Claire: Look, I don't want to deal with this right now, Peter I'll call you later see you guys.
Peter: You don't need a ride?
Claire: We can take a cab. (she and Gretchen walk away without another word closer to the street before Claire holds out her arm for a cab and they get in as soon as it approaches)
They all look on thoughtfully as the sun sets.
Peter: Gabriel, if you want, I can talk to her tonight.
Gabriel: It's fine, Peter. It'll take some time for her to get used to how I am now. That is, if she ever does.
Hiro: I'm sure she will. You will prove it in your actions that you are a changed man, after all actions speak louder than words.
Ray: That's true, let's just hope she hears them.
Meanwhile, at Noah's apartment, Noah and Angela are watching the sun set.
Angela: Have you talked to Claire?
Noah: I have. Although talking these days doesn't seem to get very far with her.
Angela: She might not realize what she's done now, but trust me she will soon.
Noah: As a parent, you tell yourself that you can always protect them from everything. Until you realize that you can't, especially not from themselves.
Angela: We will do what we can, the past and present have collided in one of the worst ways imaginable.
Noah: What do you mean exactly?
Angela(takes a photo out of a familiar looking young woman, it's Kat.): Does this young woman look familiar to you?
Noah: Wait a minute, there was a file done on her years ago at the Company. However, this appears to be a personal photo, how do you know this girl?
Angela: Look closely, you'll see him and her in her eyes. Especially him though.
Noah looks closer at the photo. She has a sweet smile in the photo and her eyes are so much like...(flashback to a black and white image of Adam with a sinister smile)
Noah: No! It can't be him!
Angela: Yes, even though he is dead, she has taken his place. Like father, like daughter.
(While ending narration is going on, Peter and Gabriel are seen saving the lives of a family in a fire building, Claire is watching a movie with Gretchen, her mind still on the battle, Mirei, Saki, and Ando catch Hiro staring at a picture of him at Charlie at the diner quietly, nearing tears.)
Mohinder Suresh: No matter how much we try to run from our pasts, they always catch up with us. We try to make our presents, our futures better although our pasts never truly go away. The question now is, can we ever truly rise above them, or will they take over us permanently?
