(Y/n) (l/n) had never had a better night sleep in his life. That's why it was so surprising that when he began to wake he felt something wrapped in his arms. He looked down to see what it was and suddenly the events of the last night came back to him.
Nico Minoru yawned as she opened her eyes and found her face buried in (y/n)'s chest. "Good morning" she whispered. She can tell that he was awake by the beating of his heart.
"Morning Minoru" (y/n) whispered back as he ran a hand through her hair.
"This is really cute" (y/n) turned his head and noticed Molly and Gert watching them from the couch. Nico didn't move at all so (y/n) just closed his eyes and ignored the two girls watching them.
"Okay. Time to put an end to this" Molly activated her powers and clapped her hands. The sound was so loud that (y/n) quickly popped up and Nico turned around to face the two girls.
"You better have a good reason to interrupt us" her voice was full of anger. A purple crack-like texture surrounded her eyes as she glared at Molly.
"Woah. What's up with your eyes?" (y/n) spoke as he gave Nico a concerned look. Nico turned back to the boy before she let out a breath and calmed down. The purple slowly left her face.
"Okay. I'm good now" Nico nodded before turning back to Gert and Molly. "Now explain"
"It's four in the afternoon. You two slept through the whole day" Gert spoke as she motioned to the nearest clock. "Chase met with Spider-Man. Spider-Man then proceeded to take Chase to meet Ironman. Ironman then offered us an Apartment. We accepted it"
"Sounds good" (y/n) nodded.
"Yeah. So we figured we'd just tell you. We're taking the last of our stuff over there now" Molly spoke as she pulled a key from her pocket. "This is a key to the apartment" She attached a sticky note to it. "That's the address. Bye" her eyes glowed orange before she picked up the last of the large bags. Gert took some smaller ones. They turned and left the hotel room. The only bags left in the room now were (y/n)'s and Nico's.
"Guess it's just us for now" (y/n) spoke as he looked around. "We should probably get up and get dressed"
"We should" Nico nodded. "But since when did you ever do what you should?" She made a good point.
Two hours later
"Woah" (y/n) smiled as he looked around the huge apartment they would be staying at. "This place is at least twice the size of my old house!"
"It's definitely something" Nico agreed as she dropped her bag to the ground. "The bedrooms must be huge too"
"I'm sure they are" (y/n) agreed with a nod. "He dropped his bags as well before going over to the couch and sitting down. "This television is huge" he grabbed the remote before turning the tv on.
"That's the first thing you gravitate to?" Nico crossed her arms as she watched the boy.
"I didn't have access to one of these at home. Our only television was in my mothers room" (y/n) flipped through the channels before stopping on Looney Tunes. He laughed as he watched the antics on screen.
"You can be such a child sometimes" Nico shook her head before sitting beside the boy.
"Wouldn't that make you a pedophile?" (Y/n) asked without even glancing at the girl.
Nico glared at the boy but didn't respond.
"So... when can we start talking about getting me a superpower?" (Y/n) asked after a minute.
"Are you a mutant?" (Y/n) shook his head. "An inhuman?" (Y/n) once again shook his head. "Have any magic relatives?" The boy shrugged. "Are you sure you aren't inhuman? If you were a mutant you would have shown signs but inhuman DNA is more subtle"
"Spidey took some of my blood to have it tested. He said I tested negative for all of that stuff" the boy sighed as he just continued watching TV.
Nico watched the boy for a moment before she got an idea. "One second" she quickly ran to her bag and pulled out a book. "This is Morgan le Fay's spell book, the Darkhold. We took it from her when we beat her"
"You think it'll have a spell to give me powers?" (Y/n) asked a she quickly turned to Nico with a smile.
"I think if it does then it'll have less of a chance of backfiring compared to just trying my usual type of magic" Nico sat back down and put the book on her lap. "The book seems to show whatever it is that the holder wants it to show them"
"So open it up!" (Y/n) was bursting with excitement.
Nico looked down at the book on her lap but didn't open it. "Any idea what kind of power you want?"
(Y/n) considered the question for a moment. "Since you can reverse it if need be-" Nico nodded confirmation. "- I think I'd like to see what the book decides for me. I'm not very creative so I doubt I'd come up with something cool"
Nico nodded before opening the book. Her eyes skimmed across the page. Nico held up her hand and quickly cut it with her sharp nails. "When blood is shed, let the staff of one emerge" her staff emerged from her cleavage and she pulled it out again. Nico's eyes were once again surrounded by the purple crack-like texture from earlier. She began reading a moment later. "Let out the power within, let the memories within out." Nico's staff began to glow a brighter white than ever before. "Let the boy bare witness"
(Y/n) quickly looked down as he noticed his body began to glow the same white as Nico's staff. Just as soon as it had started it was over. Nico's staff also stopped glowing. The spell book closed itself and Nico's face returned to normal. "Did it work?" (Y/n) looked himself over.
"I- it should have" Nico seemed much more tired than she had been before the spell. "That book always takes it out of me"
"Will you be okay?" (Y/n) took the girls hand and all of a sudden the world fell away and a new one formed around him.
(Y/n) looked down as he tried to process what was happening. However unless he had spontaneously grown boobs he was no longer in his own body.
(Y/n) was not in control of the body. The head of the girl he was within looked up. Her hand knocked on the door before her. There was no answer. "Amy?" She knocked on the door again and that was when he realized who's body he was in.

(Question of the day: What's an underrated power that would be cool to have?)
