Disclaimer: I own neither characters; I just use them as barbies for my own liking.

Author's Note: Please say something if you think my impression of Dave's character sucks cause this is another one of his POV. Alrightie? Alrightie!

What the fuck was that?

Dave stared in surprise as the girl stalked away from him to catch up with her friends. She had gotten him down too easily. That was a first time in a long time…

But seriously. What the fuck was that?

He had made it back to the safehouse, still asking him that question, along with thinking about the girl. What was her name again…?

Oh right. Max.

Definitely to the max, she was. It didn't seem to take a lot of strength to make him feel weak, and he hated it. Being weak is for idiotic newbies, not the ones that were the superheroes first. That was just retarded. It shouldn't happen.

And she looked so weak! She was shorter than him and didn't seem so menacing…

Wait. He did a face palm, remembering McCready's daughter. Dammit. Max was just like Mindy. Great…

Except, of course, Mindy didn't have curves like this one; he knew that much.

"Fuck, don't do that to yourself," he murmured aloud, shaking away the quick and sick thoughts flooding in his mind about the new mysterious teen. You don't even know who the hell she is… For all you know, she could be one of those new lame superheroes.

Then the sexy super outfits came knocking on his door. He willed himself not to answer.

Mindy walked out of the room she was previously in, hearing someone talking. "Hey," she said, leaning against the doorframe, looking at him from under her growing bangs. "May I mind asking you what the fuck was taking so long?"

"Ah, um…" he said, not really knowing where to start. "Ran into a group of kids. Nothing much…"

"One of them started something, didn't they?" she asked, smirking as she shook her head slightly. "You hurt?"

Dave glared at her. She laughed and walked to refill her cup of something he couldn't identify. Probably hot chocolate, however, since she always drinks it.

"Oh yeah," she started, getting more about business, "there's something I needed to show you. Got a new set of enemies showing up."

Dave raised an eyebrow, noticing the anger and confusion in the pre-teen's face, and walked towards the dimming screen that she gestured him to see. It didn't take more than a few scrolls to see why she was with mixed feelings.

"What the hell is he in that for?" Dave questioned in surprise, looking around more as memories of defeating Frank D'Amico started filling up his mind. Mindy shrugged, sipping her drink as she grabbed the marshmallows. Yep – definitely hot chocolate. He looked towards her, pondering on how she had even bothered to come across files like those….

"You're on a search to wipe out every trace of this guy, huh?" he asked in a smirk. He thought of Chris, "Wonder what his son might be thinking of right now…"

"I could give a rat's ass about his son. He didn't seem to care about that bastard. I mean, who leaves a money-making franchise like that to go to waste? Obviously he wasn't in, either," Mindy commented, rolling her eyes.

"But hey – says here he's a… scientist?"

"That's right. Apparently not just on anything though – illegal stuff."

He frowned. "Care to explain?" he asked, skimming around. She set her mug down and leaned against the table, smirking at his facial expression.

"Seems unreal, huh? Humans being turned into something else, given powers… They got like, animal genes in almost all of them. I would totally call bullshit if it weren't for this." She snatched the mouse from his hand, clicking on a link showing what seemed to be just numbers and letters. "These were some kinds they're after, apparently. They even have some wings. Look."

Dave cocked his head to the side slightly as she pointed to the obvious shapes of wings, but the image was too blurry to tell who they were, the page still loading and all. "…These guys seem to be a whole lot of work, don't you think?" he asked as the page was almost completely loaded…

then crashed.

"Oh, for fuck's sake," she complained as new windows started popping up, not allowing her access anymore. "Forget this, I'll try fixing it later," she murmured, shutting down. "Thanks for the groceries, by the way. Didn't think you'd actually get them, but then again…. You do kinda act like my bitch, sometimes." She grinned, taking off her ponytails as Dave stood there, flabbergasted. "I'm going to call it a day," Mindy yawned, stretching her arms as her hair came down and she rubbed her eyes. When she noticed he still didn't move and came to be glaring at her, she rolled her eyes and pushed him out of the room. "C'mon, go home, Lizewski. This'll all be sorted by the time you come here tomorrow." She waved bye before closing the door behind him, and he heard her footsteps fading as she probably went to the bathroom in the armory room they were in. He sighed, not sure of what to do now.

Well, besides wondering what was happening with Max at the moment, of course.
