บท 25: The Invisible Storm...
"Fuckin' hell Johnny that bloody hurt! You burnt me bleedin' fingers!" When I get into a highly emotional state the old dialect sometimes comes out, anyway while I was dangling off the edge of a cliff with a kid strapped to my chest while a bunch of moloids (Johnny told me that's what the knockoff Saibamen are actually called) were standing above us and The Human Torch came to the rescue in the 'nick' of time (get it? because my names Nick and he saved me?). Yup he came swooping in and blasted the moloids with a wave of fire, the only thing he forgot about was that my fingers were on the top of the ledge and ended up getting charred to shit because of it.
I actually let go of the ledge in shock when he burnt my fingers and started to fall to the bottom of the abyss with the kid coming along for the ride, luckily Johnny realised what had happened and quickly caught me but unfortunately it was my charred hand that he grabbed which brought me a lot of pain and agony. The whole fiasco with the Mole Man was apparently finished though I don't really know what happened or why he attacked because I don't really care about that, I was more focused on what I was doing rather then what Johnny was doing.
After we got the kid back to his parents and Johnny helped anyone else that needed help we headed off to the Baxter building, Johnny was feeling pretty guilty on account of his melting my fingers so he decided to take me to the Baxter building to get me fixed up which actually works a lot in my favour though I could've done without the pain. I am actually currently sat in the lab of one Susan Storm AKA 'The Invisible Woman' who is currently taking care of my medical needs and is applying some bandages around my right hand which was the unfortunate receiver of Johnny's reckless flames.
"I'm not a medical doctor Johnny, I'm a geneticist! Why did you even bring him here? You should've taken him to a hospital!" Susan says calmly but you can here the sternness in her voice, I'm pretty sure the only reason she isn't more angry is because she's focusing on treating my hand. "I brought him here because it's my fault that he got hurt in the first place, plus if I took him to the hospital and the media found out about it it could ruin the public opinion of The Fantastic Four and people would start to lose faith in us and I couldn't risk that!" Johnny frustratedly shouts at his sister who just ignores his outburst.
"And you.. What were you thinking when you decide to go off and stat helping people when you can't even help yourself? Johnny and the rest of The Fantastic Four have powers but you don't." Susan questions me but I can't exactly tell her that I did it to gain Johnny's recognition and eventually access to the Baxter Building which has gone much better then I could've expected, I honestly couldn't have asked for such good results and so soon as well as I'm sitting in the Baxter Building right now. "Johnny was starting to help people and if Johnny was doing it then I had to as well, I had no other option and if I didn't help there was a chance that the four people I helped might not have made it." I say after formulating my response and coming up with a reasonable reason that although a bit silly matches up with what Johnny knows about me so far, if nothing else than Johnny is likely to like my reasoning.
"You started to help people because Johnny was helping people? Why? What possible reason could you have to do that." Sue responds back exactly as I hoped she would opening me up for the response and reason I came up with. "Well Johnny maybe be a superhero but he's also a sleaze ball and if a sleaze ball like Johnny was helping people then what other choice was I left with? I may not be the nicest guy out there but I'm definitely not worse than Johnny so I had to help, it's only logical. Plus I recently had a talk with an old man who told me about power and responsibility, he also mentioned something along the lines of 'All it takes for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing' and that kinda stuck with me no matter how cheesy it is." I replied with my answer, Johnny will know that I'm talking about Ben Parker as I've talked to him about Ben during the last few days.
They both stay silent for a moment before Susan gives a slightly amused smile and says "Johnny is a little bit of a sleaze." which Johnny was instantly affronted at and let's out a squawk. After that we had some regular chit chat about various subjects like how me and Johnny knew each other, what I'm currently up to and what Susan was currently researching, Johnny ended up just going on his phone and ignoring us as we talked about various scientific subjects and we ended up talking for over an hour after she finished my treatment.
Johnny had left the room at some point but we were to engrossed in our talk about SCIENCE to even notice his departure though eventually I decided to take my leave as it was getting pretty late and I could tell that if we didn't stop now we could take about science for the rest of the day, Susan was actually pretty sad that I had to go what with Johnny and Ben Grimm not knowing much about science and Reed Richards spending most of his time on his experiments and research this was the first proper conversation she had had about since in quite a long time. Before I left Susan recommended that I visit an actual hospital to get my injuries checked over but I told her that I had faith in her skill which she just amusedly scoffed at, obviously noticing my flattery of her and finding it funny.
Leaving the Baxter building and making my way home I was feeling pretty darn great, I feel like I accomplished quite a lot today. Not only had I deepened my relationship with Johnny but I also became friends with his sister as well as gaining access to the Baxter building even if it is only the once but you know what they say, 'There is no harm in repeating a good thing' and I am definitely a good thing, a sexy thing actually.
I couldn't help but walk with a pep in my step, everything was working out. Everything's coming up milhouse...
