Chapter 6

When Sly opened his eyes, he saw the fallen passengers were caught and safe. but it didn't stop citizens moved away from the scene in horror. a thick and very long snake body was wrapped around the fallen car. at the top of that snake's body was Sly's upper half of his human body. "I didn't know I could do that," said Sly to himself surprised himself. He concentrated and his body began to shrink back into his regular legs. "come on Sly we got to go" said Teddy running after him. people snapped pictures and recorded videos trying to seek answers. "from the strange heroes. "Who are you?" "where did you come from?" asked the crowd of people on the pier. "I'm Thorns and this is Sly. we're humbled heroes trying to make the best of our gifts. we love this city too so why not help it, call us if you need us, otherwise use the police force first" said Teddy. soon they continued to the bikes and drove off across the sand and back to Dr.Batz's Building. "Congratulations boys on a great first mission," said Dr.batz as he treated the tired boys. they all sat in the living room as Dr.Batz talked. "...It was such a thrill watching you transform and catching the car Sylvester," said Dr.batz. after getting his excitement out he noticed the boy's faces. they weren't happy or joyful, instead, they were saddened and hurt. "What's the matter guys?" asked Batz. "we were happy to help tonight, but you should have seen how they looked at me when I shifted, they were scared of me," said Sylvester. "I tried to clear up some of their questions but knowing people they'll find a way to spin it," said Teddy. "listen to me boys you busted your asses out there tonight and you foiled dixie's plan. now go get some rest you go home tomorrow." said Dr.Batz trying to cheer them up.

The Next morning Sly woke up, he had finally processed everything that happened to him and teddy. with all the thoughts racing through his head, he simply looked over at Teddy's sleeping face and nothing in the world mattered. with his finger he brushed teddy's black eyebrows, traced out his smooth brown glowing face, and traced his juicy lips. "what are you doing?" asked Teddy with his eyes still closed and his voice soft. "I'm just admiring your beauty before we have to split up again," said Sylvester. "I'm afraid to open my eyes because it means that everything was real," said Teddy. "well I promise if you open them and look straight ahead, you'll meet mine," said Sylvester holding teddy's hand under the warmth of the covers. "There they are, I love those pretty brown eyes," said Sylvester. "I love your green eyes," said teddy smiling.

Later after the boys got dressed and packed, they said their useless goodbyes and went home back to their lives only things have changed.

"oh man, it's good to have you back son," said Mr.Grey as he drove Sylvester home. "I missed you to dad, these last few days were relaxing but trippy," said Sylvester rubbing his temple. "well kid theirs a lot you missed since you were in a coma for a month," said Mr.Grey. "Like what, dad?" asked Sylvester. "For starters, I don't work for Dixie anymore, I'm working with a new mayor candidate, Alicia Love, she's black and bisexual, so I'm hopeful that she'll become our new mayor," said Mr.Grey. soon as his dad drove Sylvester saw a sign with a woman on it asking for his vote for mayor. "she sounds promising," said Sylvester. "another thing though, your brother is back from college," said Mr.Grey. "What?!" said Sylvester shocked. Soon Sylvester got out of the car and walked into his house like he was good away at a summer camp for a while. "Hey Ve, How have you been little bro," asked a tall white boy with blond hair and 20-something years old. "I've been okay after the accident," said Sylvester. "I felt bad I wasn't here for you or dad so I took a break from school to come to help out, I'll be back next semester which is in a few weeks," said Sylvester's brother. "I know dad told me in the car," said Sylvester. "Oh Sylvester, tell Sevyn about Teddy," said Mr.Grey. "Teddy? your still together, I thought he would have left you by now" said Sevyn teasing. "Ha Ha, really funny, but me and teddy are in a really healthy relationship," said Sylvester.

As soon as Teddy was escorted to the Mayz penthouse he heard his father on the phone gushing about how his baby is coming home. "...Oh I got to go he just walked in....Bye girl" said Tre'von. "Dad!" called Teddy with a joyful sigh. "I missed you, baby boy, how are you feeling? Is everything working and okay?" asked Tre'von. "I'm fine dad I promise, but where's daddy?" asked Teddy. Soon shuffling across the marbled floor approached the father-son reunion. "Is that my baby, Oh Teddy" said Lorenzo rushing for a hug. "Hey daddy," said Teddy. "Hi baby boy, you scared the shit out of me, we told you about the fringe," said Larenzo trying to scold his son but with one look at his face he was just happy he was safe and well now. as the Mayz Family ate lunch together, Teddy's dads caught him up with current events. "wait so we finally got a women mayor candidate, oh we so need her to win this election," said Teddy. "I know we've been talking with her team to help promote her so we're doing our part for change," said Tre'von. "So, we were talking and I know we just got you back but what if we invited Sylvester and his family over for dinner tonight?" asked Larenzo. "I think that would be okay, I'll text him and see if they can make it," said Teddy pulling out his phone. Soon something caught Tre's attention on the tv and he turned the volume up. "... That's right everyone, Velvet city has its first Heroes or are they, vigilantes. we're still waiting to hear the cause of the ride's control damages and other destruction, all we know is that the people riding the ride last night were very lucky. who do we have to thank for that is mostly unknown, after a video was taken, we know that sly is a caucasian male with super strength and can shift parts of his body into a serpent caught the falling ride car from smashing into the pier, his partner Thorns seems to be a person of color with plants abilities as he uses vines to catch and safely get people off the ride. let's see what some of the witnesses think about the two." said the new anchor lady. "Tell us what do you think about Thorns and sly?" asked a new reporter on the pier talking to a young woman with her boyfriend. "whoever they are, I think it's cool we have superheroes now, if it wasn't for them my boyfriend would be dead," said the women. soon a new person is asked the same question. "I'm not going to lie sly scared the shit out of me when he transformed into that snake type thing but they were brave as hell to expose themselves like that," said a man. "you heard it here folks, come back after these messages to here what the current mayor thinks about the new heroes..." said the new anchor women.
