Julianne Hunter.

Age: 35.

Relationship Status: Single, with one son.

She was pacing inside her house, trying her son's number from her house yet again. It was past midnight.

Julianne: Hello? Max?

The phone remained silent for a second before eventually going to voice mail once more.

Julianne winced, and tears fell out of her eyes as she waited for the beep.

And once the beep came, she started.

Julianne: Max, honey. Please come home. It's ok if you had a rough day at school. It's alright if you got in trouble, just come home, ok? It doesn't matter what might have happened. Mommy is here.

She sent the voice mail as tears ran across her eyes.

Julianne: (thinking: He's never this late back home. He could always super speed back.)

Julianne Hunter.

Julianne: (thinking: All I wanted was for my son to live a healthier life and to build healthier relationships. Was I.... did I push him too hard?)

She started dressing up. She had made up her mind. Whatever it was, her son needed her, and she was not going to fail him.

Julianne was then clad in a black jumpsuit. She firmly put on some gloves.

After this, she walked downstairs and looked herself in the mirror.

She only gave herself one second before she walked into the basement.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

Inside the basement, she walked directly to a wall and placed her hand on it.

Within three seconds, the wall opened up to reveal a large white walled room with several technological gadgets on the inside, most of which were vehicles.

There was a tracking device, and at that point, she almost regretted not having put one on her son. She wanted to give him privacy, but in a situation like this, it was hard not to imagine how much easier it would have made this situation for her.

Julianne walked directly towards just one of them. A motorcycle.

A particularly advanced looking one at that.

She typed a code next to it, and the motorcycle was scanned and then dematerialised into a small orb.

She carried the orb with her as she walked towards the basement's exit before closing the secret entrance once more.

As she walked up to the living room, she felt the need to walk to the family picture.

She couldn't help but stare at it for a while.

It was her, her husband, and Max, as a six year old boy. The photo was of a fond memory. Her husband was a handsome man with brown hair and blue eyes. He had his arm around his wife and his hand on his son's head.

A tear fell down her cheek.

Julianne: Did I go too far, honey?

She winced again before rubbing her tears off of her face and taking a deep breath, and resolutely walking out her door.

The night was cold, and the sky was starry. It was a beautiful night. She, however, did not take even a moment to absorb it.

Out in the backyard, that was her destination. It was a completely normal looking backyard that stood before the Hunter household.

She lay the orb from the secret lab on the ground before typing yet another code into it.

The motorcycle materialised im a bluish vortex of pixels. She got onto the motorcycle and typed in another code. This one made the motorcycle look more like the ones people were used to seeing.

After that, she put on her helmet and tested the engine before rapidly driving into the night.

She knew her son had super powers and so she had no worries about his physical health. It was his mental health she was concerned about. In all the schools he had had to leave, he had never failed to come home.

Julianne: Open menu!

A blue field of options appeared before her as she drove.

Julianne: Activate autopilot!

The motorcycle started to move on its own, and the blue field disappeared.

Julianne: Search all skateboarding and video gaming locales in the vicinity!

The machine responded with a beep and started to automatically point her in those directions while she pumped the gas to move faster.

Her maternal instincts were on fire. She could feel it at that moment. Something terrible might have happened to her son after he had left.

She tried to call him once more to no avail. He still wouldn't answer.

Julianne: Hang in there, baby. I'm coming. Just..... hang in there.

She drove into the night sky.
