5/3/13: MY CRAZY TRIP TO SWEDEN
I don't know where to begin.
This afternoon the reddish haired woman they call Bane came over and asked if I wanted to help AlertForce find something called TRIAD. I'm here to learn, so I said sure. I had no idea what I was in for.
The first crazy thing was jumping into a green bubble and getting bounced into space and then back to Earth, courtesy of Green Lantern. It was a rough ride, but it beat the alternative, so I had no complaints.
Apparently we were going to Sweden to try to find some robots this Bane woman thought were important. First we were going to search some destroyed building, then she decided we would go out to sea to some coordinates someone named Snow Angel told them. Then there was a big "discussion" that seemed more like an argument about what to do first. Then I find out that the only clue these people have about where this TRIAD is comes from a dream this Bane woman had. I thought they said her powers had something to do with chemicals coming out of her hands. I didn't know she was a psychic. Everyone seemed to believe the dream though, so again I had no complaints.
She finally said we would go out to sea, and because they wanted to go to the sea floor, I had to create a magnetic field to keep myself out of the salt water while they searched. You know what salt water does to me. Anyway, they came back a couple minutes later and had some kind of robot with them, so I was like "Great! mission accomplished!" But they said it wasn't the one we were looking for. So they wanted me to go down with Green Lantern to the ocean floor and use my magnetic field to bring up whatever is under the mud there. Well, I'm already in pain from using the magnetic field to hold myself up, but I'm a hero now, right? So I say "sure" and go into the green bubble again. Then I'm on the bottom of the ocean all like Magneto or something, and three big metal balls are pulling towards me, and my insides are really starting to hurt. But I see what they are in time -- old Limpet mines, so whoa!, back they go. I figure I'd better explode them so nobody else gets hurt. So I did.
Then we went back to Stockholm (I think that's where we were, nobody was telling me much). I suggest we could search the rubble if we get the government to let us, and the Wolf asks and they say ok. So we started pulling concrete and metal out of the hole. I was able to get a rest from using my powers when we came back from the sea, but then we were pullng this rubble out hour after hour, and I had to keep using my magnetic field to pull out the metal bits. I started to get numb, and had to go take some pills to keep from blacking out again. That helped though. A few minues later I was able to get started again. I think I am going to pay for all that exhertion tomorrow though. I may have to go see the Doc about it.
Anyway, just as we were pulling the last few loads of stuff out of the hole, the Wolf starts yelling that he's found something. It was part of a Robot. We searched around and found the rest, and this time they said it was one of the ones they were looking for. We didn't find anything more, so we brought it back to LA and gave it to that Joe guy. I think he is going to try to fix it.
I don't know how much good I did today for the price I paid. I guess blowing up those mines was good. Sooner or later someone was going to get hurt by them, so that was good, I guess.
Things are more chaotic here than I thought they would be. These people aren't as together as I expected. If I can cope with the chaos, I think I can keep going. Maybe things will start getting clearer soon. The Green Lantern and the Wolf are being nice to me, but I haven't figured out yet what is the deal with this Bane woman. She was acting like the leader today, but I thought they said that Mantis guy was the leader. Or was it that other brown haired woman they said could blow the wind? I can't remember.
Anyway, I'm tired and starting to feel the ache inside from using my powers so much today. I think I need to take a few more pills and rest.
