12 years ago, San Fransokyo

One stormy afternoon, Laughs and giggles were heard around the two-story house as a young girl with medium brown skin wearing rainbow box braids, a white raglan shirt with blue sleeves, and jeans ran around the house in her socks while a toddler with light brown skin was chasing after her

"You can't catch me Nova…" then the toddler girl with a black bob haircut with white streaks wearing a white and blue striped shirt and overalls came waddling after the older girl giggling.

"Keke…Keke…" Nova spoke as she ran after her cousin. This came to a screeching halt when a woman cleared her throat. She wore a white shirt with a red sweater tied around her waist, asymmetrical blue jeans, and white ballet flats. Her long curly hair was tied back in a half-up bun style and she had medium-brown skin

"Uh oh…" Nova said meekly.

"Keiarah…What did I say about running around the house…" the woman lightly scolded.

"To not to Mama…" Keiarah replied, looking down.

"You have to be more careful sweetie, especially since Nova is still a baby…" then another woman with a curly afro, wearing a green 90s windbreaker, black jeans, and blue Converse came in the room

"Sherri…Big sis, where's your sense of humor…You know the girls are only playing…"

"I know they are Little sis, but I just want them to be careful that's all…" Then a Japanese young man came in and Nova turned to face him

"Dada, Dada…" Nova yelled as she ran towards the man.

"Hi, SuperNova…My little girl…" the man rubbed his nose against the toddler's

"Hi Honey…" The woman joined the man embracing baby Nova and the two kissed.

"Nova…Dada has something to show you…" the man held Nova at the crook of his arm and gently bopped her nose.

"Is it one of your new inventions Jin…" His wife asked asked

"Yes, Jada…One of my best ones yet…SFIT will have their socks knocked off…"

"Uh-Huh sure…" The couple and Nova turned their heads to Sherri who made the backhanded comment.

"I'm sorry Sherri Are you doubting my work…" Jin placed his hands on his hips humbly

"What else is there to doubt…Oh that you use Nova as your little lab rat…"

"Okay, that's enough…Jin you can take Nova to your new invention Hun…" As Jin escorted out Nova and Sherri sent Keiarah upstairs, the two sisters were left in the room

"What was that for Sherri…" Jada crossed her arms

"Jada…You know why I said that…"

"Sis come on, I know that He hasn't had much success but I guarantee that this will be the one…"

"Jada…I'm telling you now…Those people rejected him for a reason…I'm just saying he can pursue something else and leave this science stuff behind…"

"There lies the problem between you two…He's still pursuing what he loves and passing on to our daughter…What's wrong with that…"

"And he's using her in his experiments, is that not a red flag or alarm bells ringing in your head…"

"He told me that He'll be careful with Nova…"

"I just want you both to be careful…okay…I want you and Nova to be safe…"

"I know you don't like Jin but please try your best to put up with him…for your little sister's sake…"

Sherri sighed but kept the smile on her face, knowing that she could never say no to Jada.


Meanwhile, Jin was showing Nova a device with a head brace around it, and a lot of jump cables and cords around it. It wasn't too bad of a device considering it was cramped in the garage.

"This is going to change the history of electricity Nova baby…This allows a human to be immune to electric charges, even by the strike of a lightning bolt." On cue, a lighting strike came in along with a boom of thunder, causing Nova to start crying out of fear.

"It's okay…Daddy's right here sweetie pie…" Jin comforted her. Then the man turned to the storm outside and down at his daughter.

"Might as well give this a small test on the dummy first…" He spoke to himself before turning to his daughter. "You ready for a test sweetie…" Nova nodded her head wildly. Then Jin remembered something

"I have to get the dummy first…Stay here SuperNova, Daddy be back…" Jin quickly left the garage, leaving Nova gazing in awe at the device. She tilted her head out of curiosity and circled around the device. Then the storm grew more powerful as thunder began to strike, making Nova scream and bump into the machine. All of a sudden the machine began to turn on. Nova didn't have enough time to react until everything went black and all she could hear was…

OH MY GOD…

MAMA….
