It Couldn't Get Any Stranger

A Good Magician Never Reveals Her Secrets

Once you are out of the shower and are clean, Max sits you in a chair and brushes your hair.

You feel renewed and fresh. Max's soap was Aloe Vera, your new favourite smell.

"Wow y/n, I'm not sure how but whilst you were in the upside down you hair has grown rapidly fast I mean look at it!"

"Tell me about it, it is so thick and disgusting."

Max smiles cheekily. She stands behind you and ruffles it.

It was still damp from the shower which made it perfect for Max's hair cutting skills.

"I have an idea" Max says.

***

"Oh my gosh, I love it!!!" You look in a mirror and you see a pretty girl with a messy (whatever hairstyle is your favourite).

"Wow Max how did you do this?"

"A good magician never reveals her secrets"

Max smiles at you and declares that it is time you both went out to get some lunch.

She decided she was going to treat you to a McDonald's or KFC. Whatever you wanted.

You said McDonalds because obviously McDonald's is better.

I mean you hadn't tried either but... oh well.

She also said that Lucas, Dustin and Mike were coming to meet them both and they would know what to do.

Just as you were about to leave.

Max grabs your hands and was about to tell you something when she noticed the number on your wrist

007

"Ohhh you are seven! That's a good lucky number! Maybe your superpower is being lucky like Domino from Deadpool?"

You shake your head. You point to your burn.

You didn't know who Domino from Deadpool was but you knew what your superpower was.

You thought you were quite dumb in not being able to figure this out before.

How else would you've survived in a toxic dimension with minimal food and even less water if you were normal.

No

Your superpower was healing.

And if you could heal yourself. Did that mean there was a possibility that you could heal others?

"Woahhh" Max says. "So basically you are wolverine without claws."

"Yep," you say.

You look down at the floor awkwardly.

"Max, I actually don't even know who Wolverine is."

She laughs.

You push open the door and walk into the shed outside the back of her house.

It was filled with sports gear, specifically baseball bats.

"Yeah my stepdad is obsessed with baseball." Max tells you as she looks around for her bike.

When she finally finds it she stares at it and remarks.

"Wow I haven't used this since-"

"The battle of Starcourt?" You guess.

She nods and motions for you to get on the back.

You do.
