I woke up and looked around me to see what looked like a lab. "Good Morning sunshine," I looked over to who was talking to see the handler standing there. I struggled to get out of the chair I was in but I couldn't because my arms were tied to the chair. "What do you want from me," I asked with anger in my voice. "Oh, no need to be like that, she said walking over to me as I struggled more to get out of the straps on the chair. "It's no use. Those straps have power dampeners in it," she said as she put her finger under my chin to meet her gaze.

"What do you want?" I asked her again in the same angry tone. "Now dear that's no way to talk to your mother," she said which caused me to scoff. "You're not my mother. My mother died years ago," I told her. "No that was just a story your father made up to keep you away from me," she said. "And so you shot him," I said. "Precisely," She replied.  "So what do you want from me?" I asked her. "To show you how to use your powers," She replied.

"And what if I don't want to?" I asked her. "If you don't cooperate then we will be forced to get physical," she explained before I felt a big electric shock that caused pain to run through my body. I screamed out in pain. "What kind of mother are you?" I said after it stopped. "The one that wants to help you. Tough love," She said before walking out of the room and another wave of electrifying pain went through my body causing me to scream in pain once more.
