Power Inc

Episode Two - Power Inc

While talking to Dean, I didn't realize time was flying so fast. The door behind me opened up, stopping the conversation between me and Dean. Aqua came out. She looked healed and refreshed. "How are you feeling?" I asked her. She nodded. "I'm good, thanks." She said. She was using a towel to dry her blue beautiful hair. "So, what did I miss?" she asked. Me and Dean nodded. "Nothing much. We were waiting on you to decide what to do next." I said. Aqua nodded. "Well, Lets get to it." She said, as she walked through us, and made her way downstairs.

Downstairs, Phoenix and Meta were sitting on the couch, talking to each other. Once they noticed Aqua, they stopped. "Oh, how you doing Aqua?" Meta asked. Aqua shrugged. "I'm okay. Sky said you all wanted to talk about something?" she asked, as we followed her downstairs. Once we all settled down, Phoenix rose from the couch. "Well. I think this whole mess brought us together. And my mother taught me that working together is better than working alone. You know, always have someone to have your back." She said. We all nodded. "So, I thought we should all become a team." She continued. We all looked at each other. "Sure, why not." we all agreed. "Nice, what should we call ourselves?" I asked. Dean nodded. "The Dark Knights?" he asked. We all nodded in disagreement. "Maybe The Aquatic Five?" Aqua asked. "No, not all of us are from the Ocean." I said. Aqua nodded. "Whatever." she said. Suddenly Meta stood up. "How about... Power Inc?" She asked. We all looked at each other, than made noises of agreement. "Then Power Inc, it is!"

__________________________

That was months back. Now we're all settled in that huge electronic building, built by Metanite. Each of us has his or hers own room, and we even have spare rooms if we find more people like us. Phoenix's idea, too. Who would've thought things will end up like this. This is crazy. Five months back we were just some young adults struggling with ourselves, but now we are Earth's heroes. Now we are something more. And we have to be on guard. We are Power Inc, and we have to set an example for all.

I'm staring outside of the big windows at the living room. It's raining hard. The city seems quiet though. But I haven't heard from Mother Nature in months and it worries me. I'm weakening, and I need her to guide me. I'm reaching for the bow on my back and take it, staring at it. Then I lower my face in shame. "Are you okay?" I jump at the sound of Dean's voice. "Oh, Dean, yeah, I'm fine." I said, turning back to the window. "You don't look fine." he said, he had a worried look on his face. I sighed. Then I turned to him. "Don't worry, It happens sometimes." I said. it didn't seem to make him less worried. "Well, if you need to talk about it." He said, as he took my hand. I took her back fast and turned away. "It's nothing serious. You don't have to worry about me." I said, hugging myself. He sighed. "Okay." He said, then turned and walked away. I closed my eyes for a second, abit angry at myself for how I reacted, then I turned to see if he's still there but he wasn't, he was gone.
