Tainted love

Thomas looked at his watch he had to leave at 12:40 pm for the interview he had enough time to stop from he quickly opened his watch and used one of the many digital buttons his super suit instantly materialized it was a red costume fitting his elemental powers to complete his suit he had a mask he flew out looking for villains he found one robbing a girl he jumped in and fought the guy they both used their power.

Thomas used a blast the mugger did the same it instantly created a explosion blasting both of them back the girl ran off and Thomas quickly knocked out the mugger and had sent him to the police a whole lot of reporters came in thomas flew in everyone looked at the prominent and strong superhero and awed the girls blushed at the sight of him while the males became jealous of him thomas smiled "hi everyone." Thomas said the news reporters thought of a bunch of questions one girl even brought her mic close to Thomas's face "mister Red Ace May I ask you a few somethings?" She said.

Thomas nodded "sure ask me anything but nothing that has to do with my secret identity." Thomas said the reporter smiled she grabbed her notebook and flipped through questions "okay so first I'm Mayberry worker for KGBC news." Mayberry said Thomas nodded smiling "yeah I watch your news miss Mayberry if you don't know I enjoy it your news." Thomas said Mayberry smiled and laughed "so red Ace do you have any kids?" Mayberry said everyone looked at her Thomas smiled "yeah I have one it's 3 years old though currently I'm not with anyone." Thomas said he immediately left and continued his spree of crime fighting he stopped he looked at his watch he noticed that it was now 12:59 he was late to his interview.

Thomas stopped at the building he quickly walked to a alley way next to it and his suit dematerialized he then entered the building and ran to the interview room the boss was about to leave she was surprised to see him but she knew who he was "Thomas your late." She said Thomas looked down "I'm sorry Mallory it won't happen again I was just caught up with some things." Thomas said Mallory smiled she sighed "Thomas you know that if this was anyone else you would be given a chance but since you know me as your adopted mother I will give you a chance okay first tell me about yourself." Mallory said.

"Okay My name is thomas when I was a 5 my mother and father abused drugs it had gotten so worse that they started to abuse us one day my mother hadn't had the money to pay her drug dealer she was desperate because as the days gone by the drug dealer kept on getting more antsy my mother thought of a solution..... she sold my twin sister to him the drug dealer saw she had a problem so she excommunicated her so my mom went to another a year later again she had gone into debt that she couldn't pay so this time she sold me for during the time when I was sold which was 2 years I have been used for many.... disgusting despicable things I was founded two years after being sold I was found by a officer and you knew me so you know the rest." Thomas said.

Mallory looked at him shocked "I said a little but okay next question what's your biggest fear?" Mallory said Thomas looked at her sighing "my biggest fear is to not able to see my kid I miss my son I haven't seen him in 2, months and these past few months after not being able to see them I started drinking I just miss them." Thomas said 'because of my elemental control I get drug harder but not too hard it only takes me 10 drinks to get drunk.' Mallory nodded looking down.

"Okay what drives you too live?" Mallory said Thomas smiled "my son jake." Thomas said Thomas smiled Mallory smiled "your smile was always so adorable when you were a kid.... anyway what were your biggest achievements in life?" Mallory said Thomas laughed "my son is the biggest achievement of my life." Thomas said Mallory smiled "you got the job!" Mallory said Thomas looked at her confused "doesn't it take a few weeks to find out and aren't there 26 more questions?" Thomas said.

Mallory nodded she pulled out a tea set and poured some water into it she used her power to turn it into tea she poured some honey and sugar 'I always forgot her power is able to transmute any liquid into anything she wants the only limit is she can't transmute liquid led.' She offered Thomas tea Thomas shook her head "no I don't like tea a change of taste buds happened and now I like French vanilla." Thomas said Mallory nodded she poured a cup and used her power again turning his cup to coffee.

Mallory gave the cup to Thomas he started to drink "your right there are more questions and it takes up to two weeks to determine approval I just think I owe it too you for being easy and for helping me out with mick." Mallory said Thomas smiled "thanks when do I start?" Thomas said Mallory smiled she pointed at tomorrow thomas smiled he jumped happily "do you miss your sister I hope this question isn't saddening?!" Mallory said Thomas nodded "it's not honestly and yeah I do miss her in fact what you don't know is that I searched for her for a time I gave up after nothing was found." Thomas said Mallory nodded frowning "I hope you continue your search and find her she deserves to be looked for." Mallory said Daniel looked at his cup of coffee he hadn't took a drink of.

He took a sip and looked at the reflection he looked at it angrily "don't worry my search has only just began I may have lost her location or all clues on her but I will find her even if it means breaking a few laws." Thomas said Mallory nodded "so I'll see you tomorrow here's the paperwork and the keys all you need to do is sign the paper work and hand it over to the office you'll become the legal owner of it okay have a good day thomas." "And thanks for coming." Mallory said Thomas smiled and nodded he gulped down his coffee and left.

He walked to his friends house and had put everything in a small bag "hmm how lucky that I don't even own much all I own is a few clothes and that's it." Thomas said mick entered the room sad to see thomas go "dang I'll miss you thomas." Mick said Thomas jumped surprised he looked behind him shocked and confused "your really going to miss me?" "Why I'm even your biological older brother?" Thomas said mick looked at Thomas a bit disappointed "it doesn't matter adopted or not I'll miss you, you literally helped me from changing my diaper as a baby-" Thomas looked at him embarrassed "to helping me when I first got bullied in highschool but to be honest you changed all of our sibling butts." mick said Thomas looked at him flustered "I-just never mind by mick I'll miss you hopefully I'll get visited by younger brother but that's when he wants, too." Thomas said Thomas took his stuff and left.
