Cody let the hot steam run over his back in the shower. He looked towards the door in shock as his father knocked. "We're burning Ozone, Cody." he said. "What in the hell is taking so long?"

"I'll be out in a sec," he said. A cool wave of embarrasment fell over his body.

"CODY," said a voice from afar.

Cody cowered in fear. "ANSWER ME!!"

"Y-y-yes it's me," he quivered. "DO NOT BE ASHAMED! IT IS THAT WHICH YOU DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT WILL BE THE KEY TO PEACE AND UNDERSTANDING AND FOR HEALING OF THE OZONE!!"

"Is this my special power?"

"IT IS, MY LAD, IT IS."
