Ch. 22: A New Team

Wade slowly began to open his eyes, seeing nothing but a blurry white light at first, not knowing if he was really dead or alive. His vision grew more clear as his eyes opened more. Once his vision was fully restored, he saw that he was in what looked like a little hospital room. He glanced around to see that Gar, JP and Patrick were all with him, sound asleep. He then slowly felt around his body to check the bandages he felt wrapped all around him. He mostly had them wrapped around his torso. There was also one wrapped around his arm and another placed on his cheek. As for his physical health, he was doped up enough to not feel any of the stabs or cuts he suffered, but he felt like his head had just been stabbed and ripped into two pieces. It didn't surprise him though, and that part was his own fault too. The headache caused Wade to painfully sigh and groan, grabbing the attention of the boys as they awoke. They smiled upon their leader's consciousness and stood to check on him.

"H-Hey, Wade" Pat was the first to speak, grinning in relief.

"Hey guys" Wade barely managed to even say.

"How you feeling?" JP asked.

"Mmm, like hell" Wade grumbled and the three giggled.

It was then when Molly's friend Nin walked in the room.

"Hey Wade, glad to see you're awake" she smiled. "I'm Nin, Molly's friend. I just wanted to let you know that we've got Chambers and Blue for everything. And you and your friends are gonna be taken good care of. Great job out there" she lightly patted him on the arm.

"Hear that? We did it" JP happily added and Wade could only giggle a tiny bit.

"Thankyou" he replied to Nin, but then realized something. "Wait, w-where is Molly?"

Nin's smile suddenly faded, being overwhelmed with emotion. She glanced at the boys, who nodded in order to say "We'll handle this" and she left them to it. Wade grew with worry as he waited for the answer he knew was coming, and dreaded.

"Wade, they never found her" Gar courageously, but sadly, answered. "She hasn't turned back up yet either. I don't think she made it"

Streaks of tears had already begun to fall as Wade leaned his head back. He felt the guilt of leaving her and the heartbreak of her loss. But he knew he did what she wanted, what she and everyone else needed him to do. Despite that, her loss still hurt. He knew she was a great woman, that they would have been great together. But now, the chance they almost had was taken from them. Whatever they could've had was now gone. But even so, Wade felt a slight sense of comfort, respect, gratitude, and even relief. It was because Molly had died for not only him, but so many other people. She died being the best person that he had ever known. She died a real hero, and Wade would always remember her, and love her, for everything she did.

A month had passed before Wade made a full recovery. The boys had stayed with him the whole time until he got to go home; and they even joined him in going back. As for what they accomplished, the world went into a frenzy about what they uncovered. It was being called the biggest international conspiracy in the history of mankind. What topped it all off was the shocking discovery of just how many people with superpowers there was. The whole ordeal was something that would change the world forever. As for General Chambers, he was convicted of crimes against humanity, stripped of his rank, dishonorably discharged, and sentenced to life in an unmarked prison. It was the same prison Dr. Blue was sent to for similar charges. Including, over dozens of accounts of illegal human experimentation. Neither one would have access to a lab or the outside world ever again. As for everybody else who was tied to them, whether it was government officials or organized crime members, they all suffered the same fate. Hundreds and thousands of criminals and corrupt individuals had been put away for life without parole. Mob families, cartels, terrorist organizations, corrupt politicians and government agents had all been brought down at the hands of Wade and his friends. In doing so, thousands, if not millions, of people were set free and returned to their homes and loved ones. It was perhaps the greatest thing they had ever accomplished. Wade and his friends had truly made their mark. They had made their difference in the world.

Once Wade made it back to his house, he thought a celebration party with the others would be appropriate. It was the four of them along with Bob. Wade convinced the others to invite him as well since he did play a big part in assisting and supporting Wade and his friends. Plus, Bob really wanted to congratulate his friend and his buddies on the big victory. That, and get to know the boys better.

"So, what are your superhero names gonna be?" Bob asked with a grin.

Pat and JP looked to Gar to be the first to answer.

"Um, well... honestly, I think I'm just gonna stick with my real name like Wade. I think it works great on it's own" he stated.

"I like that, and respect it too" Bob nodded. "Pat?"

"I was thinking about PatrickStatick" the others seemed to like that idea. "Combine my real name with a fitting hero name, and it sounds catchy"

"I agree" Wade nodded. "How bout you JP? You got a hero name or you gonna stick with your real name too?"

"I wanna be called Pineapple Boy"

"Pineapple Boy?" everyone else in the room said simultaneously.

"Yea, cos I look like a pineapple"

"Pretty much" Wade nodded and everyone giggled.

"Either that or Mustard Man"

That was even more confusing, not to mention weird, then the first one.

"Alright everyone!" Bob laughed, disrupting all the mixed chatter JP caused. "What about the team name?"

"Team name?" Wade asked in confusion.

"Yea, every team needs a name, which I'm assuming you guys are?"

"Well-" Wade was cut off by a knock on the door. "Ex...cuse me" Wade said with more confusion, not knowing who else could be here.

He got up to the door and opened it to see who it was, which gave him the shock of his life.

It was Molly.

She was alive and standing here with a hoodie on. Wade was speechless and without his breath. He had always hoped that she had somehow survived, but all the time that went by proved otherwise. But she did, and she was back. She came back for him.

"I'm sorry, I had to make sure no one else-" before she could explain, she was immediately engulfed into a hug.

She wrapped her own arms around Wade as he held her tight. She squeezed back just as hard, having missed him and hated letting him believe she was dead. But all that mattered was she was back now. She was back with him. They stayed like that, holding each other tightly, for a moment before slowly pulling apart.

"I had to make sure no-one else would come after us" she informed, sniffing away her tears.

"It's fine, I'm just glad you're back, and alive" he stated through tears and she smirked.

"And for the record, I love you too"

That just made Wade's heart swell. He wasn't even sure if she had heard him back on the plane, but she did. He leaned in and pulled her back for a passionate kiss, which she gladly accepted. Not only had Wade accomplished his mission, but he found the perfect woman along the way. Everything Wade had wanted in this very moment was now his.

The two broke apart when they heard the others beside them. Pat and Gar were grinning, Bob was smirking and JP had actual tears.

"You two are so adorable" Gar noted and the others laughed.

Wade just rolled his eyes while Molly grinned. She gave him one last kiss before going to reunite with the boys. Each one brought her in for a hug, just as relieved and happy to see her alive as Wade. He then introduced her to Bob, who seemed happy to finally meet her.

"So, what did I miss?" Molly asked once everyone sat back down.

"Just Wade deciding if we're a real team" JP replied.

"Well, I wasn't sure. I mean, I'd like for us to be, but I thought you guys were gonna go home after this"

"Well, I'd like to stick around for a while at least" Gar shrugged.

"Yea, and I can always go home and come right back" Pat added.

"And JP, you wanna stay?"

"Hell yes" he grinned. "I mean, I did get my family back and spend lots of quality time with them. So, now I just wanna stick with you awesome people and fight some bad guys"

"Will they be ok with this?" Wade asked, not wanting a family of Cardassians coming after him.

"Not that it would matter, considering I survived on my own for nearly a year; but yea, they'll be fine with it. And I did save them, with the help of you guys, so they trust you all"

"That's always a relief to know" Wade noted and they giggled. "But guys, I've told you all about what it is that I do. It won't just be bad guys, it'll be things you've likely only seen in your nightmares"

"Hey, we make pretty good nightmares ourselves" Gar noted and the others agreed.

"That sounds official to me" Molly said and Wade glanced at her.

"So I guess you'll be joining us too?"

"Absolutely, there's nowhere else I'd rather be" she smiled, which Wade reflected as the others awed. "Besides, what would you boys do without me?"

"We would die" JP said.

"Horribly" Pat followed, earning more giggles.

"Well, it's settled then. We're a team" Wade nodded.

"Yaaaaay!" the boys simultaneously said while applauding.

"Now, in answer to my question...." Bob chimed in.

"I don't know, what do you guys think?" Wade asked.

"The Salty Boys" Pat stated.

"The Fruitloops" JP said.

"The Rainbow Crew" Gar said.

"JP, what is it with you and food?" Wade asked.

"I just like the sound of it, and it's fitting because we all wear different colors" he explained.

"Same reason I suggested The Rainbow Crew" Gar added.

"And Pat, The Salty Boys?"

"You know how that works" he nodded with a laughing grin.

"Alright, alright" Wade laughed. "But listen, no matter what our team name is, I know for a fact this is going to be one hell of a group of heroes that will accomplish many great things, and I am proud to be your leader"

"Here here" Pat replied as everyone toasted with their drinks.

Wade's attention was stolen by his phone vibrating. He picked it up to see he was receiving a call from Mark. He smiled as he excused himself from the group and went to answer the call.

"Hey Mark"

"Hey, Wade! Good to hear from you again!" Mark happily cheered.

"Yea, sorry it's been so long. I meant to call you much earlier then this"

"Hey, it's fine. I just wanted to say congrats on the big victory man! This is big!"

"Yea, well, if it wasn't for you, I never would've done this"

"Yea, I'm pretty awesome like that"

Wade giggled and shook his head.

"But no, seriously, great job buddy. You made a real difference in the world and I'm proud of ya. I knew you could do everything you wanted to"

Wade's smile grew wider from his kind words, feeling flattered by how much Mark believed in him.

"Thanks a lot Mark, I appreciate that"

"By the way, you are planning to stick with this, right?"

"Yea, why you ask?"

"Remember everything that happened last year? Before you set out?"

"You know I could never forget that" Wade almost laughed.

"Well, judging from a few recent events, it looks like that time we've been waiting for might be arriving soon. When it does, I'll need all the help I can get"

Wade started to get the full picture. His celebratory mood changed into full seriousness and determination. He knew what Mark was talking about, and he looked forward to the battle that would soon approach.

"When it does, you call, I'll be there"

Wade will return in The Alliance.
