At Flood's question, Devika felt the anger of the old wound flaring up in her again. She had to physically clench her jaw to keep from spitting out a nasty response. She didn't want to make an enemy out of Flood for no reason, when he'd been kind to her. She steadied her breathing and let out the anger in a slow breath through her nose. "I don't have a super parent." She may or may not have some kind of strange power in her DNA from her birth parents, or she may just be a mutant. None of that mattered, though, because her parents were human and unapologetic. "I have two seriously awesome parents, who taught me everything they could, and got me to other teachers when they couldn't." A smile of pride crossed her face."I may have some super DNA in me or something. But as far as I'm concerned, whoever it came from is just a blood donor. They're not my parent." It was probably more of an answer than Flood was expecting.

"Nice. You don't have any expectations to live up to. You're the first of your generation of heroes or villains. I wish I was the first person in my family to have powers." Flood said not noticing the anger Devika had been feeling. "What are you doing tomorrow?" Flood asked as he wondered if he could hang with her tomorrow.
