Hours later


After we settled down in Fetch's old hide away we cleaned the place, it was pretty fuckin dirty. Then we changed clothes, into some clean ones, after that intense cleaning both our clothes were dirty. Surprisingly we had similar clothes sizes even though I was at least 6 inches shorter than her.

"So what's the game plan?" I asked while flopping on the couch that was in the middle of the floor.

"Long term, beat up Augustine and some drug dealers, but right now get food, wanna come?" She explained, shrugging on a military like jacket. I sighed loudly, throwing my head back.

"I just sat down," I whined. Fetch rolled her eyes and yanked me up the couch.

"You're coming, come on I know I good pizza place near here." She told me after I grabbed a jacket that looked similar to her's and my phone.

Once she saw I was ready, she began to walk out the door. I followed next to her, trying to memorize the city as it passed by.

"Is your family all this short?" Fetch asked out of the blue.

"Nah, just me and my great grandmother are really short. But my brother and the rest of my family all are like 6 something, almost literally a foot taller than me" I told her.

"Ok wait, how old and how tall are you?" She questioned, looking at me weirdly.

"23 and 5 foot even, what about you?" I said, looking away.

"I'm 23 too, do you wear heels a lot?" She asked, turning left, making cross a street.

"Yeah, at most they make me 5' 6" though, but not everyday because don't want barbie feet," I said, watching other people pass by as we continued walking.

"6 inches taller? That's a lot," she said, watching me tug my jacket closed. "Cool, eh?" I nodded, not realizing that it was obvious with how cold I was.

"Well, it's cause you're skinny and short," She teased.

"At least I'm cute," I counter teased, sticking my tongue out.

"Well, I know a lot of guys who like girls with meat on their bones,"

"Alright, but short girls are perfect for giving hug," I told her almost matter-of-factly .

" And suckin' the d-" Fetch's mumble was cut off by a punch to the shoulder.

"I heard that, and I'm not in to that kinda stuff," I frowned.

"So you like girls?"

"No, I like guys but not the sucking the uh that part,"

"Alright shrimp, I thought for a second you were gonna say you were in to me or somethin' ," She joked.

"Nah, you aren't my type anyway," I said sarcastically.

"Ok, than what's your type?" She asked, taking a right down a street.

"Let's see tall..." "Everyone's taller than you," Fetch cut me off.

"I know but like 6 feet tall, lean but with muscles, funny, let's me borrow his clothes, and kind," I explained smiling.

"Nice, I like that kind too, well I like most types," She confessed, smiling as well. "Oh hey we're here," Fetch said half surprised. She pointed out a pizzeria with a burgundy awing. We walked up to it but she stopped me before going in.

"Alright so I'm gonna order the pizza, but I'm gonna have you get a news paper, so do you like anything special on your pizza?" She asked handing me a few quarters. I took the quarters and the told her no for the pizza topping.

"Alright then, I'll meet you back here in a little," She told me before she entered the pizza place. I went to search for a news paper machine.

Not long after we separated I found a machine dispensing today's paper. I slid several quarters in to the slot and then retrieved the paper. But as I came back up, I felt hands grip my hip.

"Hey baby, wanna have some fun," A gravely voice whispered into my ear. I jumped and tried squrim away from this unwanted person, saying "No! Get off me!"

"Hey, I'm just trying to have some fun, don't you want to?" He cajoled, holding me tighter.

"I said let go!" I yelled, and seconds later I felt the hands yank away from my hips. People ran in fear. Screams and the word "bio-terrorist" filled the air. I turned around to see a man plastered against a storefront, covered in a sheet of ice.

"D-did I do that," I stuttered, taking small steps away from the scene. Sirens started to go off and I decided that it would be a good idea if I left at that time. I ran, as fast as I could. But I ended up turning in to bits of steam, water, and ice.

"What is happening!?" I yelled as I ran to a building. I meant to try to stop but I ended up running up the side of the building, stopping on the roof just before the edge. To calm myself down I sat on the edge, taking deep breaths.

After I wasn't freaking out, I made my way down the building and to the hide away with my new powers.

When I got in, I wasn't surprised to see Fetch on the couch with a soggy pizza box.

"What took you so long and where's the paper?" She asked sitting up straight. I sat down next to her but not crushing the pizza box and made water form at my fingertips.

"So that water spectacle was you, wait how did you get through the check point into Seattle?" She wondered pulling out a piece of plain pizza and handed it to me. I graciously accepted that pizza and took a few bites out of it before responding.

"I don't know, it just happened when I got really angry at someone," I tried to explain.

"Alright She-Hulk, so your powers are water manipulation?" She asked eating a piece of pizza herself.

"Yeah, any form of water," I confirmed, finishing my pizza and taking another piece.

"Nice, wanna learn how to use them?" She offered.

"Totally, but pizza first," I said before eating more pizza.

"Definitely," She agree.
