"Whoa cool!" I gasp sickly at the parade happening outside. The doors open behind me and the Tennysons walk out "You know it's so hard to find fresh Potikadon root anymore. It's all freeze-dried nowadays." Max sighs. Ben leans on me and coughs "Can't we get a milkshake or something?" He asks, I cough "Ugh, my throat is killing me." I groan.
                          
Max smiles at us "Don't worry, the stinkweed honey in the Song Ju Yen Pien coats your entire esophageal area." He stares, Ben grabs the jar and sniff it. Ben gags, quickly screwing the top back on "And that's a good thing?" I ask, cringing deeply. "So, where exactly did you learn how to make this stuff, Grandpa?" Gwen asks "I picked it up from a monk in Guangdong, China." Max says.
                          
Gwen and I both raise an eyebrow at that
                          
"They have plumbing in China too, you know." Max says with a nervous laugh. "Ladies and gentlemen. I want to thank all of you for your support of my downtown redevelopment program. It's truly a dream come true." A lady says. Bees start to surround the crowd and I gasp as a man...riding a wave of bees appear...
                          
"Better make that a nightmare, councilwoman!"
                          
"Wasps!" Gwen gasps "Wait those aren't bees?! Ugh, wasp are worst!" I whine sickly, placing a force field around the four of us. The people around us start to scream and panic, 
                          
"You're not tearing down our apartment building! We won't let you!"
                          
I rub my eyes tiredly and look around, "Hey, Benji...hear me out. What if we didn't go hero while sick? And we just...stay in bed like normal sick children?" I suggest with a cough. Ben looks at me as he wipes his nose "Come on, N/N," He says, dialing on the watch "This looks like a job for...for-"
                          
I put on my suit and Ben sneezes. I turn to see Wildmutt...with green lips and slimy gills. He sneezes again and grunts, "You good, Benji?" I ask. Ben whimpers and looks around before running into a pole "Taking for a no..." I sigh, hopping on Ben's back. Ben growls and tense up "Just me...just me, ok." I say, gently petting his fur.
                          
I stop when I hear purring, I crack a wide grin "Did you just-" Ben grunts and starts moving. "Wait-ack! Go left!" I tell him.
                          
Ben stops and starts going right 
                          
"You're other left!" I sigh, Ben nods and this time actually goes left. "Watch out!" I say to the people around us. "Alright, isn't working." I sigh, pulling Ben to a stop. Ben whimpers and grunts, looking around. "I'm still here. I'm just gonna levitate you and tell you when to hit, ok?" I ask. 
                          
Ben nods, I lift Ben into the air before letting out a harsh sneeze-that made the sky turn F/C "Whoa!" I gasp, accidentally dropping Ben. He lets out a yelp, "Sorry!" I say nervously. I look over to Max and Gwen confused, Gwen shrugs and Max studies me.

Ben groans as we sit together on the couch in the back "Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse." He grumbles "Um...I don't know has to fix the sky. Is anyone concerned?" I ask with a cough, looking out the window. Max walks up and hands us to cups "Here, this will help." He says. We take the cups and Ben sniffs it "Uh, yuck!" Ben gags. I look down at my cup in fear 
                          
"Don't worry, it smells worse than it tastes. Or is that the other way around?" Max mumbles "That worries me even more." I sigh, coughing "It's not just you two I'm worried about. Seems like your bug has spread to your alien powers as well. No telling how it'll effect them. We've already seen what Y/N's powers can do..."
