After his hunt with Nox, life became a whirlwind. Andlain and his followers were causing trouble and CCD resources were tasked with hunting them down and confronting them, including, of course, the Monster Squad, Domovoi. Ivan was not assigned to the same team as Dorian and so didn't have an opportunity to confront him over the things Nox had revealed. Oh, just a little thing like his allegiance to an organization that hunted down people like him- and had done so for a long time.

In a way, Ivan was glad that he had some time to cool off. Dorian and he shared rank but the man was older than him and had been doing this a long time. Ivan would need to get dirt on the guy- something solid and useful that he could bring to the LT. From there, perhaps they could follow him to the organization itself and begin to dismantle it. It might be old but its greatest strength was probably its secrecy. Ripping away that secrecy might wound it and make it easier to take down.

In the meantime, with people like Andlain around, Ivan needed to get stronger in the power. Now that he could use it whenever he wanted, he did so. He used it at home at every opportunity. And at work- at least with his coworkers that he'd gotten to know and trust. He'd earned a nickname that he still wasn't too thrilled with. 'Superboy'. Ok, he more than disliked it. "Boy" indeed. At least call him Superman or something. He wouldn't have minded that at all.

But it was all in good fun and the truth was they did value his being on the team. He was a cop with a good record. And it evened the playing field a bit having someone like him, though Ivan began to think that having more guys- and girls. Be nice to have their own Wonder Woman or three around, especially if they wore those outfits. Yep yep. Not very good for real police work, he knew. Or crime fighting. But still...be pretty nice to see- Anyway, it would nice to have more like him on the squad. He couldn't be everywhere after all. Kinda like the CCD's own Justice League, even.

He viewed his use of the power as he did his workouts. An hour of weights and then an hour of the power. He pushed himself, lifting heavier and heavier with both. He also tried to learn to be delicate, using it to pick up bottle caps or coins. He still needed a proper place to practice more destructive weaves. He'd been back to the tunnels a few times and his explosive disks got better and stronger. The creatures, wherever they were, had gone, though. He tried calling Nox but the man's wallet went to voicemail. He didn't know where the man had was.

Curiously, Zo was MIA too. He hoped she was ok. He missed her. Probably out trying to rescue more rabbits or maybe adopting a bunch of puppies or something. Yeah, he missed her though, a lot. Missed that smile and the twinkle in her eyes. But he knew that she'd surface again one of these days.

In the meantime, between his work and workouts and trying to research Dorian he really had not time for anything else.

But think of the devil and there he is. One evening, while he was working out- hair drenched with sweat from his exertions, his wallet rang. He put it on speaker- he hated the feel of a sweaty ear pressed against its surface- and feigned friendliness.
