Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar!
Sylar! Sylar! Sylar!
Sylar: Hey. What’s up? I’ve been waiting for you and Peter to show up for forever. We’re going to miss the movie.
Me: LISA!
Sylar: (Looks at me confused) Who?
Me: Oh my ... YES. EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL. (hugs him, to which he hugs back)
Sylar: marry me?
Me: (Releases from hug, looks at him) what?
Sylar: marry me.
Me: (Even more confused) what?
Sylar: Do I have to get down on my knees? (Doesn’t wait for an answer, gets down on one knee, pulls out a small box)
Me: WAIT. Be right back. (Teleports to Peter)
Peter and I: WE HAVE TO GO BACK. (Without any discussion, we go back)
Peter: Why do we keep messing up? Noah hates me, Claire hates me, and my own Mom hates me.
Me: Because we’re not going back enough. (Touches Peter’s shoulder, we go back even further in time) Peter, watch. (The first Nicole that teleports to tell ‘myself’ to get on the bus gets knocked out after I hit her on the head) There. That should do it. Now “I” won’t get influenced by anything as I meet Sylar for the first time.
Peter: Nice job.
Me: Not really. Everything goes back to normal and when we return, we’ll still have Lisa to deal with.
Peter: Maybe ... nevermind
Me: (Turns to look at him) What?
Peter: We could ... find her? And ... well. You know...
Me: We’re not going to kill her.
Peter: NO! Of course not! (looks back at me) Remember Samuel?
Me: Oh. OH! Yeah. Let’s go look for her, but instead of making her good, let’s just take away her powers completely.
Peter: that’s dark.
Me: We don’t want to take any chances, Peter.
Peter: Okay, let’s do this.
(part 8)
Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter! Peter!
Peter: Wow, now I get why Sylar really dislikes that.
Me: (Behind a tree with Peter) You and Sylar never respond after the first time I call you. And just so you know, Lisa’s right there! (points to Lisa)
Peter: Okay, how are we going to do this? Should we rent a van, kidnap her ...
Me: (I walk up towards her while Peter keeps talking) Hi, excuse me. Do you know where 4th avenue and Liberty street is?
Lisa: Yeah, it’s just (raises her arm) two ...
Me: (I grab her hands)
Lisa: HEY! LET GO OF ME.
Me: (Thinking ‘you will no longer have powers ever. The government will never hire you. You will forget that you had powers. You will never meet Sylar, Peter, me, and anyone related to us. )
Lisa: (closes her eyes, opens them after a minute, blinks a couple of times, looks at me) uh, hi. Can I help you?
Me: (Looks at her) no, thanks. See you later. (smiles)
Peter: Impressive.
Me: (Looks at him) you wanted to rent a van to kidnap her, seriously?
Peter: (nonchalantly) Uh, yeah. That’s how I roll.
Me: Let’s go back to our time now. (we teleport back) Everything looks normal.
Peter: Except that (points and looks down at my legs, there are greenish scales). Nicole. What is that?
Me: I don’t know. What’s happening to me? (Looking at my slowly developing webbed fingers and toes) Peter.
Peter: We should go see Mohinder. ASAP. He can fix this.
Me: (something starts irritating my ankles) ow! (something starts poking out of my skin) Peter. (scared voice) Help me.
(part 9)
Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder!
Mohinder: What is that!?
Me: scales, and webbed toes and fingers. WHAT’S HAPPENING TO ME?
Mohinder: Your cells must be mutating after Sylar gave you those powers. His ...
Peter: AGAIN?!
Mohinder: What do you mean by again?
Peter: We already did this! You created a serum, got the mutated cells to clot, took the clot out and we destroyed it.
Mohinder: Peter, this never happened.
Me: YES IT DID.
Mohinder: I think I’d remember this.
Me: JUST HELP ME!
Mohinder: okay. Give me a couple of hours. I’ll make a serum to do what Peter just said and you should be fine and power-free by the end. (leaves)
Me: Peter! I feel like I can’t breathe. Take me to water.
Peter: (teleports us to a pool, I jump in, fully clothed in shorts and a t shirt) how could Mohinder have forgotten?
Me: (swimming around, breathing normally) maybe because it didn’t happen.
Peter: (walks around the pool) what do you mean?
Me: Before, he created a serum for the government, which was actually Lisa. Now that she’s not really involved, there was no need for a serum.
Peter: Makes sense. (stares at me for 5 minutes) let me try something. Can you get out?
Me: Yeah. (gets out of the pool, Peter wraps a towel around me)
Peter: (touches my shoulder, closes his eyes, and opens it after 5 minutes) didn’t work. I tried to make those mutated cells disappear. They seem immune. This has to be the one thing that didn’t change. (I look down) Let me try something else.
Me: What? (Looks up)
Peter: (presses his lips against mine)
Sylar: What’s going on here?
(Part 10)
Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar! Sylar!
Sylar: WHAT?!
Me: (Lowers towel to cover legs, t shirt now dry, shorts still damp) Come back! It’s not what it looks like (raises hands to stop him, lowers them after seeing the webbed part and hides hands behind back)
Sylar: So you kissing Peter is “not what it looks like.” You’re kissing my best friend.
Me: NO! He kissed me! (Realizing I made it sound even worse, covers my mouth) uh ...
Sylar: (Looks at Peter, angrily) Peter? Is this true
Peter: Sylar, look, I would only kiss her under special circumstan... (stops, realizing that he is revealing too much information)
Sylar: (even more angry that Peter is withholding information from him) what do you mean special circumstances. PETER.
Peter: (looks at me desperately) it’s a long story ...
Me: Peter (Sylar and Peter look at me), stop. Sylar. Look. (I drop the towel, revealing my legs, covered in bluish-green scales and my fingers and toes webbed)
Sylar: Nicole, what’s going on? What is that on your legs?
Me: I think they’re scales. My body is mutating from the power you gave me. They’re immune to everything else but a serum that Mohinder is going to create right now.
Peter: Wait. We need to stop Mohinder. He won’t take the new factors into consideration. He might mess up and you’ll stay dead when you take it.
Me: What new factors?
Sylar: STAY DEAD?!
Peter: Sylar, I’ll explain later. It’s actually a long story, but Nicole, he made the serum knowing what and who it was for, and that he forced to do it. Now that “they” aren’t forcing him, he might screw up by being too casual about making the serum.
Me: (thinks about it) okay. Let’s go. (I try to walk, but I fall flat on my face)
Sylar: (helps me up)
Me: I can’t ... (looks at my legs, now almost completely covered in scales) my ... legs ... (my thighs seem to be fused together) they’re ... stuck together.
Peter: The mutation is happening too fast. I think you’re going to become ... a mermaid.
(Part 11)
Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder! Mohinder!
Mohinder: The serum is done. (Looks completely different than the first one)
Me: It’s wrong. (Looks at Peter) It’s not going to work.
Mohinder: What do you mean it’s wrong?
Me: We can’t use it. It won’t work.
Peter: Wait here, I have an idea (teleports out)
Sylar: (Carrying me, sets me down on the table) I still don’t understand what Peter told me.
Me: Which part? The part where you fell in love with the bad guy? The one where I tried to change time?
Sylar: Everything.
Mohinder: (Examines my legs) Your legs are fused together, even with shorts on. The mutated cells must be in a hurry to turn you into a mermaid.
Me: Yeah (Rolls eyes) I know. There are scales too. (Legs now fully covered in scales) Can I get like ... a bucket of water?
Sylar: (sits down, looks at me)
Mohinder: (Grabs a bucket of water, gives it to me) here.
Me: (Splashes water on “leg,” a coating appears) Oh gosh, it’s slimy.
Peter: (teleports back) Look what I have? (takes out the original serum) I got Mohinder (Mohinder looks up) ... the other Mohinder to make me another one that can accelerate clotting time.
Me: Okay. Peter, you know the drill. Mohinder, go get the crash cart ready and make sure it’s charged. (Looks at Peter) how many times did you need to shock me back to life?
Peter: 10. (Mohinder comes back, crash cart ready)
Me: (eyes widen) Wow. Okay. Remember, we have to go by the book, down to a tee. Once it’s injected, you can’t use your powers. Peter, you have to make sure that this is done right. (he nods) Mohinder, inject this, please. (Painful injection, followed by a slight throbbing in arm) See you guys soon. (I pass out)
Sylar: Peter, what’s happening?
Peter: She’s going to die, and we’re going to bring her back to life. Again.
