Chapter 6: New Home
Mark nodded and walked to Captain Stacy who was waiting for him. George smiled and said "I see you have already made a friend."
Mark smiled back and said "Yes, she was fun to talk to. Any news Captain?"
The smile on George's face lessened as he replied "Unfortunately I couldn't find a place for you. And I completely forgot due to everything that happened, but I only know your name, so I couldn't make you an ID…"
Mark shrugged and said "No worries, tell me what do you need and I will give it to you." George sighed and said "But that's not the problem, now we need to find you a place to live."
As Mark was about to say it was fine a female suddenly said "You can come home if you want." George and Mark turned in surprised and saw Susan standing next to Mark.
Mark looked at her and asked "You don't mind?" Sue shook her head and said "I have an extra room at home, and I don't think Johnny, my little bro, would mind you."
Mark looked at her deep in the eyes and said sincerely "Thank you Sue." This time Sue blushed a little under his intense gaze and replied "It's a pleasure."
Mark then asked "You aren't worried about the ones who want my head?" Sue shrugged and replied "I would rather take a risk and give a roof to a friend rather than leaving him in the cold out there."
Mark went for the seats and said "Wow, a real hero." Sue made a smug face and said "I know, I'm that awesome."
The two then sat back to their seats and continued talking about Sue's researches.
"It would be better if I had a lab on my own, it's annoying to work like this. There are too many things I can't do." Sue complained. Mark asked "Then how do you get your lab?"
Sue shrugged and replied "As I told you before I postulated for two companies. Von Doom Ind. and Baxter Ind. Both are owned by rich people so if I get in either of those I should be able to get my lab rather quickly."
Mark nodded and asked "And you don't care in which one you get in?" Sue shook her head and said "In fact I do because I know someone from Baxter, a childhood… friend. But he was much older so I don't know if he still remembers me."
After that Sue explained to Mark about her project and was astonished by how quick he understood whatever she told him. After a few minutes she couldn't help but ask "You sure you never went to school before?"
Mark shook his head and said "No, never. Why?" Sue smiled and said "Then you are very smart and talented for genetics. You understands everything I explain very quickly."
Mark shrugged and replied "It's normal for me to know how my own body works." Sue smiled and asked "Then what about the bio electricity I talked about? It was only discovered recently and it isn't something known by most people."
Mark shook his head and was about to explain when someone shooted "Sis!" The two turned and saw a blond teenager walking toward them with a big smile.
Mark guessed that this was Johnny and turned to look at Sue but saw her face had transformed into a scowl "Johnathan! How many times will I have to come here?!"
Johnny's smile faltered and he said "It wasn't my fault, he started it…" Sue's eyes seemed to spit out flames as she interrupted "You are 16 Johnny! You aren't some god damned child!"
Johnny rolled his eyes and said "Well in fact I am…" But he stopped seeing his sister about to pounce on him. Johnny scratched his head awkwardly and said "Sorry sis."
Susan's face softened and she said exasperated "Look, I'm just worried for you. How are you going to become an astronaut if you have a criminal record. You were lucky you never did anything big enough for it, but if you continue you will still get one. I mean, you are acquainted with most cops here for god sake!"
Johnny nodded and said "I know it's not very convincing, but I swear I intended to stop. This time it really wasn't my fault…"
"Save your breath, let's go home" Johnny nodded but asked all of a sudden "Hum sis, who's that guy eyeing us since I arrived?"
Sue looked at Mark and said "Johnny, this is Mark, a friend. Mark, this is my brother, Johnathan. Johnny, Mark just arrived in the city and because of some problems he doesn't have a house so he will come with us."
Johnny looked at Mark with a funny gaze and said "Man, where did you live, in a temple? Wow ears robes these days…"
Mark let out a small smile and Sue said exasperated "Yes, Johnny, Mark has been living in a temple for his whole life, that's why we need to help him adapt to modern life."
Johnny suddenly smirked and Sue said "And you are okay with him coming over?" The three had already began walking away and by now they had already arrived outside the station, about to get in Sue's car.
"Your kidding? It's going to be so fun with him, I'll teach him everything, Hohoho Mark we are going to do so much!"
Mark nodded to him with a smile and entered the back of the car with Johnny while Sue took the driver seat.
As Sue started the car Johnny approached Mark and whispered to him "We will start right now. But beware, you mustn't reveal to Sue what I'll teach you or she will go against your teachings."
Mark nodded although he could feel there was something weird going on.
Johnny closed in and whispered in his hear "Lesson number 1, the first and the most important, how to pick on girls…"
Like this, Johnny educated Mark for the whole trip while Sue drove, wondering what the boys were talking about.
Because they only took 15 minutes to get back home, it still wasn't too late and they decided to eat. Well Sue said they would eat and the two boys agreed, one afraid to say no while the other really was hungry.
Susan and Johnny lived in a medium sized house in a friendly neighborhood. The house had a ground floor and a first floor.
In the ground floor there was a kitchen, a living room, toilets and a bathroom. As for the first floor there were two bedrooms, the bigger one for Johnny and the smaller one for Susan, another bathroom, toilets and one last room they used as a guest room.
As they got in Sue said "I'll prepare dinner, it's late so I'll make Bologna. Johnny, show Mark his new room and help him with the bed."
The two nodded and went upstairs while Susan began preparing her sauce.
As they got upstairs Johnny said "Most of the time we use that room for parties or when we need to tidy the house."
The two entered the room, it was three meters large, four meters long, the walls were white compared to the green walls in the corridor.
Looking around Johnny said "Well it's kinda plain but if you want I can help you paint the room later." Mark shook his head and said "No I think the room is good like this, but thanks anyway."
Johnny shrugged and said "Your room, your kingdom." He then pointed at the sole furniture of the room, it was about as tall as Johnny who was almost 1,80 m tall and said "Then mat is on it, and it can be heavy so I'll help you get it down."
Mark smirked and walked to it. Mark was taller, standing at 1,90 m. Mark grabbed the mat and took it down effortlessly.
Johnny looked at him with wide eyes and said "How… how did you do that? Your so skinny yet your this strong?"
Mark shrugged and said "The robes hide my body. So where is the shower?" Johnny stopped thinking about the mat and raised his eyebrows "You know what a shower is?"
Mark rolled his eyes and said "I lived in a temple, not a cave. Although there wasn't electronics, there still were things like this."
Johnny snorted and showed him the bathroom before joining his sister in the kitchen.
Half an hour later, Johnny and Sue were already sitting in the kitchen with food served, they were only waiting for Mark to come out of the shower.
They didn't have to wait too long but they were shocked by what they saw. Mark appeared, topless, showing off his chiseled Greek god body.
Mark winked at Sue and said "What's up girl?"
Susan froze and Johnny shooted in anger "DUDE!!!"
