By the time the kiss was broken and the command was given, Blue Jay no longer had the faculties to resist her words. His eyes were half-lidded, and his usually vibrant blue irises were now dull and glossy. His jaw was slightly slack, and at her request to let her go, his arms dropped to his sides loosely, his shoulders slumped.

Mirage straightens herself. Now she can begin. The hero was in a daze and will listen to all her words which she can use to manipulate him. She takes a moment to stop the shine and gives her eyes a little massage with her fingers. With it stopped she was feeling a small amount of ache from her eyeballs. Like wearing the glasses in a movie theater. ”Now up and come lay on the bed.” Mirage said and begins to help him sit upright

With help from Mirage, Blue Jay slowly got up and hobbled weakly to her bed . He lay down right in the middle of it, staring mindlessly up at her ceiling. One of the greatest masked heroes in the city, now a brainless, vulnerable rag doll on her bed.

Mirage removes his mask. ‘He saw my face now I see yours.’ She then has him lay down flat on the bed, while having a seat on the bed with him. ”Now shall we begin? First tell me your name. Both of them.” She said while she fiddle with his winged mask in her hands

It was a funny thing, heroes like Blue Jay wearing a simple eye mask to conceal their identities. One would not think that would be effective enough to prevent people from recognizing them, but somehow he and others had managed to pull it off.
It was already clear that the young hero was dashingly handsome even when he was masked, a fact that became even more clear when unmasked. He merely continued to stare at her ceiling, and answer her questions.
“My hero name is Blue Jay... and my civilian name... is... James Rooker...”

Mirage cupped his cheek as she took in all of his features. This would be another score for her. The first was when she overpowered him, and number two is that she knows his face and identity. Moments ago she was just going to take the one victory. For she didn't need to know his name or face if he didn't know her's. Just erase his memory and let him be on his way. But the way he found her fast and the sweet moment they had was changing her pervious thought. "James, what powers does the Blue Jay have?"

“Flying...” James answered in a monotone voice. “I only have the power to fly...”
It was a bit of a sore spot for James. Flying was definitely amazing, allowing him to have an amazing view, as well as come to the rescue quickly. But it could prove challenging as far as fighting super villains or rescuing people in immediate mortal danger was concerned. Still, he had master the gift he had and persevered as best he could, which said a lot about him as a hero.

“Ever ability is good. We will make good use of it. Listen well James, your story is about to be rewritten.”
Ella wasn’t evil and her plan for the hero was not to harm or give him amnesia, but change his memory and divert the path. When she was younger she was a upstanding citizen. But one day somebody robbed her house and even got a hold of her life savings. Making her completely broke. The cops did catch the one who did this but never recovered the money. Ella was forced to live on the street. And that wasn’t the end either. When someone tried to steal from her again something snapped inside her, like a chain finally broken. She looked at his face and he was her first case. That was when she realized she had a super power: hypnosis. over time she perfected her power and learned all its strength and weakness. With this she began remaking her life. She could have gone and made herself a Queen, but chose instead to just make a better life. Yes sometimes take more to give her some pleasure.
“You have made a new change in life. For you have just made a new girlfriend. A woman named Ella. You helped her when two men tried to mug her. You stayed for a drink with her and you are attracted.”
With the fun she had with the kiss she decides to help and steer him to like her he wouldn’t turn on her. But she won’t just turn him to the dark side. She herself isn’t evil just a Robin Hood with more take but there has been give. In fact there was a time she used her power to make a crooked man walk to the police station and confess to a scam he was running.
”You will still be this city’s hero. But you don’t want to hurt the woman that charms you. Now it’s a new day after spending the night over at your new girlfriend’s house. Now it’s time to wake up.”
”James. James.” Mirage or Ella changed her tone to sound no longer like a hypnotist, but perhaps a...girlfriend waking her boyfriend who was sleeping in.

“Nnn...” James moaned as he blinked groggily, wishing to have a few more minutes of rest. But the sweet, familiar voice coaxed him to properly open his eyes and wake up. As his vision came into focus, the first thing he saw was the face of his girlfriend.
“Morning...” he said sleepily with a smile.

“My hero has returned.” she said playing the part. ‘It seems the suggestions are working. But this is still a work in progress. He’s not fully under yet but for now doesn’t look like he will try to arrest me.
”Now that you’re awake should we get some breakfast? I could make something nice.” She holds up his mask to take. “You slept in your uniform.”

James looked down in embarrassment to see that he was, in fact, still in his costume. “Heh, guess it was a long night.” he said wryly as he gratefully took the mask out of her hand. “Come to think of it, I don’t think I even remember bringing a change of clothes here. But yeah, breakfast sounds great. Thank you.”

Ella gives him a shoulder shrug to give an emphasis for the forgetting. Ella leads him to downstairs and goes to the kitchen. She puts on an appron that was white with blue flowers embroided on the skirt. She gets to work on making a nice meal. Even though she had something to eat on the way home that was just a snack. It took a few minutes but she makes some sausage, scrambled eggs, and toast. "What do you like on your toast?"

“Just some butter and cinnamon is fine.” James answered, sitting down at her table, sitting his mask off to the side. After all, why would he need to wear it in front of his girlfriend?

She gives him a grim continuing her role of his new girlfriend. This would be an interesting turn of events. Ella places two dishes on the table and has the empty seat near him. ”So will you be returning to your day or night job? Though I don’t know when you are a hero and when you are just a man. I know so little but I can’t help but feel attracted. Sure you don’t have Cupid’s touch as well as flight?”

James chuckled and lightly blushed at her comment as he began eating the food placed in front of him. “Just flight, as far as I know. What time I go on patrol really just depends on what my schedule as a civilian is like for the day. It can be a rough balance. Usually I try to spend a few hours of the night flying around, making sure no villains are on the loose, no muggings, no burglar-... burg... b-b-burglaries...”
James suddenly felt very strange, feeling like he was forgetting something he was supposed to do. Something... important...
