Heroes We Could Be

the calmness before the storm

A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple as putting a coat around a little boy's shoulders to let him know the world hadn't ended.

I finnaly got all my test back on the samples Ora gave me and with testing the serum s52. Her results came back well odd... odd is an understatement. That Ora had a bit of the COL1A2 gene in her when we did the s52 bath injection, but is no longer present because of the cystiem rich transmembrane BMP regulator 2 the chrodin like and I assumened that healed her disease. From all I could see with her test it was the BMP regulator 2 not the 1 causing the powers. The regulator 2 is the reason she had the powers, hair and her eyes. If I isolate the regulator 2 then in theory the surgery would be a success with no other problems. I walked over to the rat that was the successful when taking in the protein regulator 2 and pet her. All together she was a healthy rat and her red eyes and her white coat. She was getting old, she was now about 2 years. I went by to pick up some of the other rats I was planing on testing on and picked up the youngest of the 4. "You're going to be the one to heal so many people." I began to pet her up and requested the COL1A2 gene. Let's proceed.

A/n: ok so you are probably confused so let see if I can clarify. So the COL1A1 and the COL1A2 is the brittle bone gene. I came up the the name s52 even before any of this stuff I found out luckily the s52 gene acctauly fits with the story, what's my luck! The the s52 gene is a protein enhancer. The Chordin is a bone morphogenetic proteinantagonist composed of four small cysteine-rich domains. So basicly Chrodin is a protein enhancer and that's basicly what regulator 1 is but 2 is stronger and enhances more. I hope that helped now back to the story.

Dad's been in the lab for the past couple of days working on his gene therapy thing. I still don't understand why he hasn't released it yet, Ora seems fine and healthy. I'm in my room working on Lux's suit. I like the design of the first one but I doubt it was fire or water resistant. Also she says she has trouble landing when she jumps, so I added shock absorbers into her suit. It's going to be alot heavier than her leggings and her slightly armored shirt. She loaned some of her cloths so I would be able to get her measurements for her suit. The metal I was using Magnesium and a mixture of a flexible materials.

For Lux's first suit it's not a horrible design and put together pretty well. My suit in the other hand was well... a black hoody with a long stick. Now my suit is quite robotic with the wings and the glove that help me pinpoint and directed where I need to go with it connected in my mask and my spear having it have the shock so I can paralyze my opponents. I've now done this super hero gig for a year and a half starting out my Junior year and Lux has already surpass me. I'm glad she my partner and not my enemy. I do wonder what she's like without the mask. Also what did my dad mean by he made her into that. I want to ask but seeing him fight with Lux I doubt my luck would be in my favor, she can heal I cant. I finished screwing in the last bolt. I thought her suit was missing something and saw my old red nunchucks. Once I added thoses on I pressed the button and it transformed into a cube much smaller than mine. I can't wait to see her try to use the nunchucks. I thought on how many times she would hit herself.
