Everybody is watching Weebly not knowing how to react, He then says,"I'm sorry everyone! I thought these were the bad guys, where is the mayor so I could pay him for the damages I caused?" I put my hand on his shoulder and say,"Don't worry, I got this." I then point my finger towards all the destruction he made like exploded cars, blown up walls, and destroyed lamp posts with plasma. It fixes most of the damage but leaves the cars non functional as he pulls out a wallet and gives a wad of hundreds to me and asks me to give it to the mayor. I don't know whether too go to the mayor or ask Weebly where he got all this money, until Don comes up to us and takes the money and gives it to the chief so he could get the officers new cars. Weebly asks me,"So while I guess I was stolen by the other Plasma Bullet, he took me to see Bricklee saying I was the key to stopping you. But after the days drew by they all started getting tired of me for following them into their personal lives and getting on their nerves so they kicked me out, leaving me homeless until I was walking down a alley way which happened to be a spot for thieves, so they pointed a gun at my head and was speaking all this gibber jabber about how they were gonna kill me unless I gave them money. So I just grabbed his arm and ripped it of his body, leaving a waterfall of blood squirt from his body onto the floor and onto his buddies, I then grabbed the gun and killed them all with a bullet to the head each within a second. And after I searched their bodies for some money to buy a cupcake from some bakery down the street, I seen a paper saying stuff like where to meet the other bounty hunters to get money for their targets. So then I became a bounty hunter just like that, making me thousands with every kill and buying guns whenever I could." I scratch my head wondering if I should invite him into the superhero group or take him to prison with Bricklee and Reverse Plasma Bullet. He then puts his hand on my shoulder and says,"Lets go get some of that frozen milk." I don't know if I should laugh or not and then ask,"You mean ice cream?" He then gives a grin which sends shivers down my spine, and we make our way to Carlos's so I could catch my new friend up on what he should know. Until I pull out my phone and message Blanca asking if she wants to join us, a couple minutes later she replies with a very odd message saying,"Umm I don't even know you Alize... sorry I don't hang out with strangers." I am so confused that I leave Weebly instantly and run to her house, once I get there I see her on the porch playing some phone game as I walk up in a brown fitted leather jacket and white pants which I randomly thought up. She stands up in fear not knowing what I was gonna do as I talk to her,"What do you mean Blanca I don't understand what you're talking about?" She thinks for a moment trying to understand what is happening then says in a gentle but firm tone,"I don't know how to say your name, I don't even know you! Please leave me alone!" I wipe the tears away from my eyes thinking how much it sucked being me right now. Until I get an idea of what might have happened and ask one more question,"Hey um last question, did you feel something odd within the past few days?" She puts two fingers to her temple and thinks about what has happened and replies confused,"Yes I can't remember what had happened yesterday when I all of a sudden found myself inside of a small restraunt." I walk away and once I'm out of sight I wrap my suit around my body and skid in the air on a plasma rail which evaporates behind me back into matter, leading my way to Carlos's mansion. I land at the door and quickly make my way to the basement where Weebly has his face in a bucket of ice cream like a little kid and Carlos is suiting up. "What the freaken heck Carlos! That pill that I gave Blanca didn't just erase her memory of me being Plasma Bullet, It erased her memory of me entirely!" I then burst back into tears thinking about how my family is gone, my best friend is dead, my crush doesn't like me back, and how my new girlfriend just forgot about me like a fart. I fall to my knees and rip my mask off wondering why I had to get hit by that stupid lightning, Carlos walks over to me and hugs me so tight while whispering,"I am so sorry Alize... It was a mistake." I think about it for a second and say,"I guess it's alright, it is just that I have nothing left that I love." Weebly then stumbles over to me and offers me a glop of ice cream in his hand and says with a full mouth,"I lob youph Plathma!" I giggle and wipe my final tears away as Don says,"We all love you Alize, I love you like a son and cherish you everyday for always doing the right thing. You may be plasma bullet but sometimes, the hero is the one who needs help the most. We are all human, always remember that Alize." He then comes up and hugs me and soon enough we are all in a a hugging pile. I then feel a warm feeling in my heart, happy to hear that so many people care for me, even the dummy with ice cream. later that night around 9pm all of us are together on top of the century link building watching over the distance for any crime, There was The Synth, Icer Stasis, Weebly, Nano Hawk, and even Blind Breeze tagged along. I say out loud to them," You know, I never chose to be a hero. Yet it was always my dream to be one. Maybe since we are a group, we should have a group name like the avengers or something." Weebly yells," Oooh ooh I know! How about The Z-Men! We all say no as he sits back down until Blind breeze says,"The Dick Butts? Hahaha!" We all laugh as Weebly says,"Hey watch your language! This is a family friendly book!" We all raise an eyebrow not understanding what he is talking about as he quickly says,"Never mind." I sigh not knowing what to think off until Don says,"Master Elite?" Then Carlos says,"And there is 6 of us." I then string some words together and say to myself but loud enough for them to hear,"The Elite 6." Everybody looks at me surprised that such a cheesy sounding name for a team actually sounded pretty cool. We all agree on the name and get on moving throughout the city, Icer sliding, Weebly stretching his limbs across the rooftops, Nano hawk and The Synth flying together, and finally Blind Breeze hanging on to my back as I Skid my way through the skies of Denver more happy then ever that I could be apart of something big. And the words that keep me going are With great power comes great responsibility, and I do this job so that I could stop people like Bricklee who use their abilities to harm innocents like my old best friend, Jesus Cordova. As we go off into the night looking for anyone who needs help. The end...for now.
