How Did He Do It?

Many of you are probably expecting me to refute Iris's claims that Boom is better then Steel. But frankly I can't get my thoughts together on proving her wrong on her claim yet. Why? Because I've just been informed on a horrible act that Surge has committed, that the rest of the city doesn't know about yet.

You know that big battle he and Steel that caused the building to crash down on me? Well, that wasn't the beginning of their fight that day.
I may have made it sound like that most of the supers are locked up in this tower avoiding the normal human beings like me -Still no powers yet. That's not strictly true. It's more like they have a network that funnels the right problem to the right super to solve. Steel has the job of going after Surge, hence why he's the only super hero visibly seen in the city. Because Surge is visible and the tower needs a visible symbol showing that they do protect the citizens. But for less pressing matters that don't involve Surge, the Tower has a council of supers, that meets everyday to go through petitions, emails, people, and decide what hero can best meet that need before sending them off to help out with the situation. It's a pretty iced cool system! It saves the heroes from just roaming willy-nilly through the city looking for trouble that may or may not happen.
Only, the system has come to a complete halt.
Why?
Surge. SURGE SNUCK INTO THE TOWER! I thought an evil bad guy wouldn't dare to go into the strong hold of supers and strike. But he did! He came, disguised as a petitioner to council. How they couldn't recognize him, I have no idea. I mean, he actually has grey colored skin! Not a thing you can miss in a crowd. Yet, they gave him audience and somehow, he brought the tower to it's knees. No, he didn't kill the council, but in a way this is much worse.
They're all toddlers.
Grown men and women all toddlers. And I thought that only happened in Sky High! Though those were babies. These guys are in the 'terrible twos' which means, they just cause chaos and refuse to see reason. It's horrible. No one knows how to switch them back. -And like with my collar, many a super has tried and failed.
Steel went after Surge to get the answer, and caught up to him at the building I happened to wander into. Oh man, this guy is devious, Surge. He changed all but one member of council into a toddler. The one remaining guy? Steel. Surge had made a collar that would go around Steels neck, and never come off. The controlling collar around my neck. In a nutshell. Surge would control Steel, Steel would be the council, Steel would tell all the supers what to do. Basically! Surge would control the tower and all the supers in it through Steel! It's icing crazy! Who knows what the villain would do with all that power!
Luckily for Steel, and unluckily for me. Things didn't go to Surge's plan and now I'm stuck with the collar and Steel is free to continue running the council as best as he can. -They can't elect a new council because Technically the old council is all alive and healthy. New members can only be elected when a member dies. Somehow, once this fiasco is straightened out, I think that rule is going to change.
In the mean time, all the supers still in school have been given an added responsibility. Yep. Baby Sitting. Home Ec in High School has nothing compared to this 'class.' We're all getting a crash course in dealing with super powered tots. Can I tell you it's exhausting? Because it's icing exhausting! You have to stay mentally on top of everything or else you're liable to get hurt when one of the tots decides to 'use his powers' to get their way. Ugh. Totally not looking forward to going back to that room again. I mean...I don't have powers yet, soo I'm kinda a sitting duck there.
I seriously hope that Steel gets the counter-cure from Surge soon. Otherwise, it's only a matter of time before the city discovers what he did.

Layters!
