The Sunshine Crew turns fantastic


Reed tested Corazon first. First he tested her hearing. She confirmed both his and Sue’s heart rates were normal. Sue and Reed then went over to the far end of the large lab. Sue then whispered something low in Reed’s ear. Corazon repeated what Sue had said.

Sue then left the lab and went to the kitchen on the far end of the building. She told Cassie that she was next, as soon as Corazon and Trey had returned. When Sue returned, Corazon repeated word for word what Sue had told Cassie and what Cassie had said in reply.

Reed and Sue were astounded by her range of hearing. They did one last test on her hearing. Sue went to the garage where Johnny was polishing one of his cars. Sue informed him that dinner would be ready at six, and that they were having spaghetti bolognaise.

Corazon repeated what she told Johnny and what Johnny said in reply. Sue had smiled in amazement, while Reed was eyeing her in wonder and astonishment. Sue and Reed were more then a little worried, seeing as Johnny tended to being home a lot of his dates. Most stayed the night; you get the general point of what went on. Which meant Corazon would have to deal with hearing some very embarrassing sounds.

In order for her healing powers to be tested, Sue had to remove the small bandage Reed had placed there yesterday, after Sue had burnt herself on the cooker making dinner.

Once Sue had removed the bandage, Corazon took a deep breath and concentrated, before letting her hand hover over the red blemish on the side of Sue’s wrist. A few seconds later Sue gasped as she felt a warm tingling sensation, and she and Reed watched as the enflamed skin turned back to its regular creamy white, and was completely blemish free.

Sue whispered in amazement “Remarkable. You could be a famous healer with such a power at your disposal.” Corazon shook her head and replied “I do not need nor do I wish for fame. I am happy not being known anymore then I already am. The fact I was one of the crew members to go on the mission to save the sun. And of course I was one of the only five to survive out of eight. It already makes me more known then I am strictly comfortable with.”

Reed and Sue nodded in agreement. With all of her tests completed, Sue asked Corazon to send in Trey. She nodded and exited the lab. Trey entered less then a minute later. Once seated, Reed asked Trey what he had discovered so far since he had woken since being in quarantine.

Trey replied “My reflexes are quicker and more acute then ever before, in-humanly so in fact.” Reed asked “In what way has your sense of reflex been improved?” Trey replied “Before the storm cloud I could never catch a ball or anything that had been thrown in my direction.”

Sue suddenly eyed a beaker full of blue liquid that was resting on Reed’s desk. Reed saw where her gaze rested and rapidly shook his head no. He exclaimed “No Sue, there isn’t a one hundred percent grantee that he’ll be able to catch it in time. It’s a form of acid, as you know. It can eat through metal.”

Trey said “Trust me I can do it.” Reed still looks nervous and dubious but finally agreed. So Trey stood a fare distance from the table. Sue then knocked the glass beaker off of the table. Less then two seconds later Trey held the beaker, having not spilt a single drop.

Reed’s jaw dropped, as did Sue’s. It had taken mere seconds for Trey to reach forwards and smoothly capture the beaker, without any spillages. Trey definitely had extremely keen reflexes, no doubt.

Next they tested his healing ability. He explained he could only heal himself and not others. Reed asked Sue to go and get Mace again. Reed explained to Trey what he was about to get Mace to do would be extremely painful, but it was required to test how fast and what range of self healing he had.

When Mace arrived Reed informed him that he wanted Mace to break Trey’s hand, in several places. Mace had looked at Reed as if he had grown a second head, or told him Capa was female.

He asked in a bland tone that was clearly incredulous. “You want me to break his hand in several places?” Reed nodded. It was the perfectly emotionless expression on Reed’s face that told Mace exactly how serious he was being.

Mace looked at Trey and raised an eyebrow and asked “Are you actually agreeing to this, Trey?” Trey nodded and replied “Yes Mace I am. I’m certain I can heal whatever damage you happen to inflicted upon me.”

Mace snorted and shook his head, he then grabbed hold of Trey’s hand and gripped his fingers before using less then half of his strength, not wanting to cause more damage then was necessary, he squeezed.

Trey’s reaction was instant, as a loud crunching sound echoed around the room. Reed and Sue cringed; even Mace was unable to keep a straight face at the sickening sound that emitted from Trey’s now incredibly swollen and misshapen fingers.

Trey yowled “Fuck, Mace, I think you more then broke them; I think you’ve shattered several bones.” Mace complained “Hey you’re the one who agreed to this crazy shit. Be thankful I used less then half of my strength, or I’d say shattered bones would be the least of your worries. I’d say if I’d applied anymore pressure then I did I would have more then likely snapped your fingers in half, literately.”

Trey continued to yowl and curse Mace. Less then sixty seconds later Trey’s hand was completely healed. The swelling was none existent and his fingers had been reset and were no longer misshaped.

Reed commented “Less then sixty seconds, amazing.” Trey grumbled “If he hadn’t shattered them I could have more then likely healed them in less then twenty seconds.” Mace snorted and commented “Well, let this be a lesson to you. When someone suggests letting someone with even a quarter of my strength break your fingers, tell them where they can painfully shove that mere suggestion.”

Trey grumbled, while Mace continued to smirk. Reed cleared his throat and said “Could you please send for Cassie. And inform Capa that it’s his turn as soon as Cassie returns?” Mace and Trey nodded, before exiting the lab.
