Chapter 645: Dream; Lady Ace and Katherine Mulligan…

(Royal Woods News Station. Royal Woods Michigan.)

A door closes and Katherine Mulligan locks it. She finished her usual announcement on whatever news is happening which is mostly Lady Ace and her normal day of saving Royal Woods and even Great Lakes City, and the many crimes and disasters she has stopped.

But then Katherine is in deep thought about something else. 'Lady Ace. I can never ever stop thinking about you. An amazing and brave and kind woman with super powers and does whatever she can to ensure everyone and everything is A-Okay as usual.'

'Such beauty, such grace and such courage and I need to be incredibly honest… a dang hot woman when she goes around and in the suit and… I shouldn't be thinking of that, because her true and amazing qualities is her personality and her never give up demeanor.'

'If only I could speak to her… And then I could tell her… Focus, next time Kathie.' Katherine leaves for the parking lot at the back of the building and she doesn't know that the cameras have been temporarily turned off. But then she hears someone clear their throat.

Katherine turns around and she is surprised to see that it's Lady Ace. "Hey Katherine. We need to talk someplace private. The roof of the building. Are you fine with that?"

Katherine is at a loss for words. "Ummm. Sure but how…" before she can say anything, she's picked up bridal style by Lady Ace and she flies to the roof of the building. Lady Ace then let's Katherine go and she blushes and is stunned. "Wow… just… wow."

Lady Ace then explains. "Ms. Mulligan, listen. I know that you have had this crush on me and how do I know? Well, the many times you wanna have a "private interview" kinda gave that all away and I figured it out."

Katherine Mulligan blushes hearing this. Then Lady Ace continues. "Katherine, I am flattered that you have a thing for me. I know a lot of folks do too, and you are a nice lady and also kinda attractive." That makes Katherine Mulligan feel kinda hopeful.

Lady Ace sighs. "But unfortunately, I cannot return the feelings to you." Katherine Mulligan feels like her thoughts shattered like glass but she tries to calm down and let's Lady Ace explain why. "Now, I cannot reveal who I am to you, but I am a married woman with kids and I love them with all my heart and I would never wanna betray them. I'm sorry."

Katherine Mulligan is still in total shock. But then she takes a deep breath and calms down. "It's alright. I understand."

Lady Ace feels happy to hear this. "Katherine listen to me. I know that someday you will find that special someone, let them be a man or woman. You will find that right person who will share the same feelings as well."

Katherine Mulligan nods and she knows that Lady Ace is right. "Yeah. That is true. Also, I wanna apologize for constantly trying to ask you for an interview. Now I feel bad for all of that, I'm going to stop doing that."

"Thank you." But then Lady Ace thinks about this. "But, perhaps a small interview wouldn't hurt. I know that at some point I will have time for a small interview. How does that sound?"

Katherine is surprised to hear this and she smiles and nods. "That would be nice and we can do that one whenever you have free time."

Lady Ace nods and she carries Katherine Mulligan back to the parking lot and next to her car. She then watches as Lady Ace flies off to patrol the town once again.

Katherine Mulligan sighs and she feels upset. 'Well, I guess I should've seen this coming. But I have to accept this and let Lady Ace be with her choices and whoever she is with. She has her own life when not being a super hero for now… I should be ready for the small interview with Lady Ace soon!'

She then goes into her car and she drives off but then she sees a notification on her cell phone. 'Dang it. Looks like my usual route is being blocked by road construction, I'll have no choice but to take the Franklin Avenue pathway.'

(B. Lewis Residence, Franklin Avenue.)

We see Michelle Lewis waiting at the front yard. Her kids are all in bed and she sees someone show up and that someone is Lady Ace. "Sorry for taking a little longer. Had to sort out a drunk driver issue with the cops help. Are the kids already in bed?"

Lady Ace then turns back into Amanda Bright and then Michelle speaks. "The kids are in bed and also I saw the news on my phone about what you did. But my real question is… how did it go with Katherine Mulligan?"

Amanda then explains. "I explained to her that I am a married woman with a family and didn't reveal anything about who I really am and calmed things down and she's alright with it and believes that she'll find that special someone one day… just like how we found each other, our special someone."

Michelle chuckles hearing this and she embraces Amanda and she hugs her back. They then share a small and yet loving kiss and then Michelle speaks. "You did good babe. Now come on, there's still lasagna in the kitchen." Michelle and Amanda B. Lewis head back into the house.

Then Michelle asks and chuckles. "So, still planning on when to tell our son that his fave super hero of all time is actually his awesome mom?"

Amanda smirks and she recalls. "Well, I'll still figure something out. But I do know this, he is gonna be shocked and amazed when he does find out. We also need to calm him down when I do tell him the truth." This makes both women chuckle, and they will also have to tell Leni and Luna of this place.

But they didn't even notice that Katherine Mulligan's car passed by and stopped and she saw everything. 'Lady Ace is… Amanda Bright? Wait, Amanda B. Lewis?' She then smiles and looks to the house. 'It makes sense now. About what she said, married to someone and having kids, that also explains why her voice almost sounds familiar because I have spoken to Amanda before.'

Katherine then feels like a burden of responsibility has been laid onto her. 'I promise to you Amanda that I will not let anyone else know the truth of who is Lady Ace and I will tell no one else of what I have seen. You have my trust and my respect, Amanda "Lady Ace" B. Lewis.'

(Reality.)

Amanda wakes up and she sits up and she sees she is in the bedroom and sleeping next to her is Michelle Lewis and she looks calm and beautiful. This makes Amanda smile and so she puts on her glasses and she sees that it is almost midnight.

She then gets out of bed and heads out of the bedroom to get a glass of water. 'Glad my dream self handled Katherine Mulligan's crush on Lady Ace, and everything is A-Okay for them.' But then something else comes to her thoughts. 'If dream Katherine Mulligan has a crush on Lady Ace… then does the Katherine Mulligan whom we know also might have a crush on me?'

But then she shrugs the idea. 'Stop it Amanda and calm down. That's ridiculous and it wouldn't work that way. Now, focus on what's coming soon… Michelle's Birthday.'

A/N: Looks like Katherine Mulligan knows the truth and is now an ally who will make sure that nobody knows who is Lady Ace. But what the heck was Amanda even thinking about with that idea, I mean it doesn't work that way and can't be real, right? Right? I do hope that you all enjoyed reading this new chapter everyone.
