For the next couple hours, the two of them worked on slowly activating Jon's powers. He was starting to get the hang of coordinating the two implants in his chest to get the desired result. Partway through, Dr. Takeda revealed that he had installed some miniature repulsors in Jon's high-heeled shoes. "Not nearly as powerful as the ones in your super suit, of course, but enough to fly around a bit. And the lower thrust should make it easier to practice."
Jon was able to use the mini thrusters to fly around the room. He only crashed a few times, and the inertial dampener blocked the impact each time. Finally, worn out from all the new experience, Jon floated down to a landing.
"That was great work today, Jon! Another few days and you'll be as comfortable using those implants as you are with your own body!"
Jon wished that his body felt more like his own at the moment, but he didn't say anything. It really had been an awesome day, even with all the unexpected changes.
"So, what do we do now?"
"Take a break! You've earned some relaxation. How about--"
Suddenly Dr. Takeda's phone started beeping. He pulled it out and looked at the screen.
"Oh, no!"
"What's wrong?"
"There's a plane in trouble just south of the city. Triple engine failure just after takeoff! They'll never make it back to the airport!"
Jon set his lips and squared his shoulders. "This looks like a job for Supergirl!"
