"I tried to prove my value to the heroes for so long," Kathy murmured. "I was always the youngest, the bounciest, the brightest. I wanted to prove I was just as much a hero as the Mighty Dragon was, or Regenerator, or Midknight. And then Nick started treating me like one and I thought that I'd finally did it. I'd gotten someone to see what I could do. And then you two showed up to drag me home like I broke curfew and told me that the one person who seemed like he believed in me was only doing it because that was the fastest way into my rainbow-colored pants."
