(OOC: ok so I wasn’t sure if Becca should be in this thread or not. For anyone reading this Parker’s power since he dreams the future some stuff will change.) “Momma!” Parker screamed seeing his mother running towards him with her arms wide open. “Baby lets go.” He saw her get pushed down by a man now she was not moving. “No!” He screamed wanting to run to her just as a man, the same man from the picture walked over to him bending down. “Hi Parker.”Night Washington, DC The White House-- Parker Petrelli’s bedroom. Parker opened his eyes looking around his room seeing if anyone was in there. No one was there but he couldn’t be too sure so he got out his flash light moving it around the room before getting out of bed turning on the little lamp that was next to his bed. Something was different about his dream. He never thought he would dream about that man again. He had dreams about that man, a man he never met, a man that he heard was dead from whispers around the staff. Parker needed to know why he was having dreams about him. He grabbed his backpack shoving in some clothes and his favorite toys. He got to his bed side ready to put in his bunny named Chester but he turned and looked at the picture of him and uncle Nate putting in in with the other stuff he wanted. He then grabbed Chester shoving him in the bag before he went to get dressed. Ten minutes later he was ready to leave not sure where he was going to find the man who was in his dream but he had to try. He slowly opened his door peeking out into the hall hoping that the guards weren’t around now seeing that no one was there he went out of his room slowly walking down the hall making his way to find some answers.

Peter had promised Becca he would get back their son, and that's exactly what he intended to do. He knew Becca said Nathan needed Parker, but Peter wasn't convinced that Nathan was Nathan. He knew Sylar had managed to get a hold of that shape shifting ability and he was adamant that it was Sylar portraying himself as Nathan. However he needed proof. He knew that Nathan was capable of a lot of things, but keeping a child from their mother was something he didn't think Nathan would have the heart to do.
If Sylar was portraying himself as Nathan then Peter would do what ever it took to take him down once and for all and then he would go back in time and fix it so that Sylar never became Nathan in the first place. He would make sure his brother never died. He would do it for Nathan, his mother and more importantly he would do it for Claire and Becca. He would do it for Claire so she'd never lose her biological father whom she was very close to now, and he would do it Becca so she would never have to give up their son Parker.
Now he was just stealthily making his way through the White House until he reached what was hopefully Parker's bedroom. However he didn't have to walk very far when he saw a small figure walking along one of the halls. It was his son, he looked even more precious in the flesh than he did in the photograph Becca had shown him. He bent down so he was at the level of Parker, putting his finger to his lips to signal quietness. "Shh, Parker, where were you going?" he asked his son quietly as he held his arms out for the young boy to walk toward him.
[ooc: wasn't sure what angle you wanted Peter to take here, so hope this is alright]

Parker saw the man in his dreams. He backed away some when his man put a finger to his lips. “I’m gonna see my momma. Peter.” He smiled at the man as he pulled out another picture he had hidden in his backpack it was on Nathan and Peter in tuxes. He handed Peter the picture looking at him because the two had similar features. “Uncle Nathan said you are a bad guy. My last name is Petrelli too.”
Parker was now sure that Peter wasn’t a bad man because he had seen bad people before and Peter didn’t look bad. He remember his one dream and how that his man was going to help his mom get him out of here. “You look like me. Is that cause you are my dad’s brother?” He touched the man’s cheek as he smiled. “We got the same smile.”

Parker said he was going to see his mom. Peter smiled, "Aren't you a bit young to go off seeing your momma alone?" Peter asked, giving his son a friendly smile. Peter still continued to smile when Parker told him 'Uncle Nathan' said he was a bad guy, even though inside he was hurting. "I'm not a bad man Parker" he replied still continuing to smile at him. He took the photograph from Parker. "That's right, that is me" he replied, pointing to himself in the photograph. He just smiled again when he said he was a Petrelli also.
"Yeah I know you are" Peter said in reply to the Petrelli sentence, he still continued to smile at him, keeping his arms open wide. Hoping his son would come closer to him, even though he seemed to back away from him at first. He couldn't blame him though, after all Nathan or Sylar told Parker that Peter was a bad man.
Peter was cut up inside, when Parker said that he looked like him, and was it because of being his brother's dad. He really didn't know what to say. He looked at him tilting his head to the side and winking slightly, smiling, wondering if he should tell him that who he thought was daddy, wasn't daddy. "Well actually, maybe you look like me because the man you thought was your dad, isn't, I'm actually your dad, I only just found out though" Peter said, as he held his arms out and enveloped the boy in a hug. He could feel a tear escaping his eye, but he sniffed and stopped it before it came to anything much.

Parker looked at him oddly. “Bad people are here I gots to leave and save my mom.” Sure from the dreams he had been having it could just be something silly but he was only four. He nodded at Peter as he looked at him still curious about the man in front of him. “You don’t seem bad at all.” He just could tell that his man wouldn’t hurt him.
Parker step a bit closer as he looked around the room not sure why the man was here. “Why are you here?” He looks up at a camera and not noticing the blinking light they would mean that someone dangerous was in the house. “They don’t know you are here do they?”
He backed away some what Peter said he was his dad but he let the man hug him. “You can’t be my dad.” He looked at the man seeing the tear in his eye knowing he was telling the truth. He then remembered a letter that his mom had given him. He walked away from Peter going into his room finding the book that was his favorite on the shelf and opened it up handing Peter a letter.
“You wrote this?” The letter he handed Peter was a note that Peter and Becca passed back in forth when both in capture. “Momma said daddy left cause Uncle Nathan is a bad man but he isn’t bad.” Parker for only being four could fully read and understand the letter but he wasn’t so sure on the context of it because in it, it said that Nathan was evil and he didn’t see him that way at all.

Peter chuckled slightly at how grown up his son appeared to be even though he was only four. "Do you know where your mom even is?" he asked with his trademark smile, followed by a wink. "If bad people are here, why don't we go together and save mom?" Peter said softly, as he looked around them.
Peter saw the camera with the flashing light when he saw Parker look at it. That was probably because he was on the premises, but he wasn't a bad person. It was tearing him apart. "No, they don't know I'm here and I actually came for you, to help you" Peter said in as low a voice as he could without hopefully scaring his son. What he wanted to do more than anything was wrap him in his arms and run away with him to Becca. He wanted them to be a family.
When Parker said he couldn't be his dad, Peter felt his heart tug all over again, and again he had to sniff back a tear. "Oh but I am, your mom said so" Peter said probably so soft Parker might not have even heard him. Then he watched as his son went off into his room and came back a few seconds later holding a letter which he gave to Peter.
"I did write it Parker" he said and then sighed, how was he going to explain to his four year son that Nathan wasn't really Nathan without scaring him. He sighed again, putting his hands together at the fingertips. "Uncle Nathan might not appear bad to you Parker, and I can't explain that, but the Uncle Nathan you know, isn't the Uncle Nathan I used to love" Peter said in a low soft voice, he simply didn't know how else to explain it. The whole explanation was too much for a young child, and he didn't want Parker to go running off on him.

Parker shrugged not knowing where Becca was. “Aunt Molly can find her.” He leans in closer to the man whispering. “She still has her powers but it’s a secret.” He put a finger to his lip not sure if he could trust this man to go with him to see his mom. “I don’t know.”
“You can’t help me but….I can help you.” Parker smiled at Peter as he recalled at dream he had before about giving the man a power. “You have a power like Uncle Nathan but you don’t have your real power do you?” He got a lot of weird dreams over the last year or but the ones that always stuck out to him were the ones with Peter in them.
Parker could only give Peter, a man that said he was his dad, a confusing looking. He did not understand what he meant by Uncle Nathan was different but then he became frighten and hugged onto to Peter. At first he just hugged hi not wanting to tell him what he remembered but he knew he had to. “Dad.” He looked into Peter’s eyes. “Is he the Boogeyman?” He remember that man from his dreams and how he went after everyone he knew. “The one that eats up the brains?”

"Of course she can" Peter said with realisation when Parker said that Molly could find his mom for him. "Okay" Peter added when he said that it was a secret Molly still had her powers, so she must have got them back after the Shanti Virus but they decided to keep it a secret and pretend she had still lost them. Wise choice thought Peter.
"I can take you to your mom Parker" Peter said still in a hushed voice, he couldn't blame the boy for being a little unsure of him, after all Parker didn't know who he was, he was just a stranger to his own son and it hurt him. He wanted to be a proper father to his son, he wanted his son to love him and acknowledge him as daddy.
Peter looked at Parker with a bemused look and a raised eyebrow, "How can you help me then Parker?" he asked, before Parker went on about his power being like Nathan's but not his real one. "Yeah, that's right, I don't have my real power anymore, now I get a power by touching somebody else" he said with a weak smile. He would love to have his old power back, absorbing the powers and keeping them like he used to be able to do.
Parker suddenly hugged him, and Peter felt a rush of love and emotion wash over him for his son. This was the moment he had been waiting for since he found out about his son. He held him close to him once again having to stop a tear from falling from his eye. When he then called him dad, the tear fell, he couldn't stop it, but he smiled at his son. "I don't want to scare you, and I promise, I'll keep you safe, but yes he's the Boogeyman who eats the brains" Peter said softly, as he kept hugging his son, he just hoped Parker wouldn't get too scared now. He had to get him away from this place, away from Sylar.

Parker nodded as Peter said he could take him to his mom. “Okay. I want to see her before she gets hurt.” He didn’t understand that his dreams could sometimes happen different ways then he saw them. His mom tried to tell him before but he just did not get it. Then there was Peter who always was saving people in his dreams but he remembered one dream where this man his dad got hurt and he wasn’t willing to let that happen.
The little boy only smiled at him before leaning in whispering at him. “My grandpa cold take away powers.” He smirked at Peter as he put his hand on the man’s shoulder. “But I can give powers.” He didn’t fully understand what exactly he could do but his mom tried to tell him so had Nathan. “Mommy said I can restore powers if people lost them. I gave Mohinder his power back. He is like super strong now.” He laughed some thinking of Mohinder. “He smells weird.”
Parker looked at Peter who was still holding onto him. “But I seen Uncle Nathan talk to the Boogeyman.” He had been running around the house hiding from Mohinder who was suppose to be watching him. He hid in the oval office and saw Nathan talking to Sylar face to face. “They can’t be the same person.”

"Okay Parker, but I promise I wont let mom get hurt" Peter said softly giving his son another warm smile. Peter didn't understand why Parker was sure his mom was going to get hurt, but he wasn't going to go into that right now. He felt like he had probably caused enough confusion for his son already as it was.
Peter's eyes opened wide when Parker said he could restore powers, so he was the polar opposite of his father Arthur who had taken his powers away in the first place. "You can do that? You made Mohinder all super strong again? That's so cool Parker" Peter said as if he was a little boy himself, and then couldn't help but laugh at himself for the way he acted. "So you could give me my powers back too then?" he asked him, for a little boy he seemed very knowledgeable, so he didn't think it would do any harm to ask his son if he could do that for him. Peter having his original power back would help in so many ways. Not that he wanted to use his son, but things could be fixed if he had his original power back.
"Oh Mohinder's a nice man Parker" Peter said with a slight laugh when his son said Mohinder smelled weird, it was probably all the spicy food he ate, most Indians and Asians smelled of spicy food he thought.
Parker was naturally confused, especially if he had seen Sylar talk to Nathan before he actually killed him. How could he explain this to his son? He didn't want it to sound really bad, but he had to make him understand what had happened. "Well you see, that's because The Boogeyman did a nasty thing to Uncle Nathan when you weren't looking and then he became Uncle Nathan, he has the ability to become anybody, do you understand what I'm trying to tell you Parker?" Peter said in a soft voice, continuing to hug his son so he wouldn't feel too scared.

Parker gave him a warm smile. “Oh I know you are always saving people in my dreams.” He finally knew why he had dreams of Peter because this man was his dad which was a main reason Uncle Nathan didn’t want to talk about him. Parker gave him a look of sadness when Peter asked for his powers back. “I get sick real sick. Momma doesn’t like me doing powers but for you I can give them back.”
He shook his head at Peter knowing his dad was crazy. “Mohinder is mean. He doesn’t like me when I try to play with him. He drives me to school and doesn’t let me talk about my dreams.” He folds his arms still not believing that Mohinder was a nice guy.
He looks somewhat confused then backs away from Peter shaking his head. “What if you are the Boogeyman?” He looks around wondering if there was a way to escape. “I’m sure he knows about Peter too. You’re evil.” Parker now starts to cry out but not loud enough for the guards to hear in less they were down the all.

"You have dreams of me saving people? Well I do my best to save as many people as possible" Peter said smiling at his son. When Parker said he got sick when giving people their powers Peter didn't want that. He couldn't let his son be ill for him. "No Parker, if you get sick I can't let you do it" Peter said softly, he would not see his son suffer for his own benefit. The power he had now wasn't the best, but he could still get good strong powers from other evolved humans, providing they had a powerful ability.
"Mohinder's mean to you? That doesn't sound like Mohinder, why would he be mean to you?" Peter asked in confusion, he had always known Mohinder to be a nice guy, friendly and caring. But Parker seemed to be very clever for his age, he couldn't see Parker lying about something like that. "Well, I guess dad's going to have to see about that" Peter said with a smile.
Peter got worried when Parker began backing away thinking he could be the Boogeyman. It hurt Peter, he began to cry, he couldn't help it, he had to tell Parker the truth, but now Parker thought he could be the Boogeyman and it hurt him. "Parker, Parker" he said in a hushed firm voice, "I'm not the Boogeyman, I'm your dad, can't you tell that much?" Peter said as he sniffed back the tears. "I've not seen Boogeyman for years, Parker I'm me" Peter said, hoping his son would believe him, and come back into his open arms. Although he couldn't blame Parker for being confused.

“You save everyone.” Parker smiles as he stands there. “You are a hero.” He was a bit sad that he couldn’t help his dad save more people because he got sick when he used his power though he had only done it a couple times in his life so maybe he was stronger now. “But what if I want to?”
Parker places a smirk on his face just as Peter says he will take care of Mohinder. “Yay! He is mean to e but not to momma.” He knew that Mohinder was weird but he didn’t think that the man would be as weird as he was towards him. Maybe it was because he had gave him a frog once and told him to kiss it. Like in fairy tales where the princess kissed the frog and it became a prince and he over heard Uncle Nathan call Mohinder a princess behind his back once.
Parker looked around then back at Peter who didn’t look evil. He ran back to him hugging him. His firm was tight with his little arms around Peter’s neck. “I’m sorry daddy.” He closed his eyes thinking he wanted to make them safe. Parker’s right hand started to glow a golden color as he touched Peter’s back. He closed his eyes his stomach started hurting but he reopened them looking at Peter. He felt fine and he had used his power on his dad.

Peter couldn't stop the rush of love constantly washing over him, as he continued to hold and talk to his son Parker. There seemed to be so much of Becca and himself in Parker, it was amazing. "I'm a hero? Well that's nice of you to say so Parker" Peter said smiling at him, "Maybe when you're big enough you'll be the hero?" Peter said, ruffling his son's hair and smiling at him.
"What if you want to? I don't know Parker, I couldn't let you get ill because of me" Peter said softly as he smiled at his son hoping Parker would understand that his daddy didn't want to hurt him.
"So momma doesn't realise he's being mean then? Definitely need to have words with him, nobody messes with my son" Peter said in a pretend angry voice, but really Peter would talk to Mohinder, he found it disturbing that he would be mean to a young child when he used to take care of Molly. What was wrong with him?
Thankfully Parker realised he was wrong, and he came running back into Peter's open arms and he hugged his son tightly again. "It's alright Parker, it's alright, I love you Parker" Peter said into his son's ear. Suddenly Peter began to feel a little differently and he wasn't too sure why. However when Parker looked at him, Peter wondered if he had just used his power on him. "Parker, did you just?" he asked, with a smile but frown on his face, "Restore my power?" he continued, "Are you feeling alright?" he immediately asked worried about his son as he stared at him, trying to look for signs of ill health. But he seemed fine, then again Peter didn't know what kind of sick his son got when he used his power.

Parker shook his head. “I don’t want to be a hero. I want to be normal.” Though his power couldn’t really do anything he did loved using it when he could. He loved his dreams which he would draw pictures about after he woke up from them. He even once stayed home from school to draw but that was because Uncle Nathan was in his dream.
Parker clapped his hands ad smiled. He was told that his mother did this a lot when she was happy but he hadn’t seen her happy for sometime now. “Good because Moho is good when he is not mean. He cooks for me a lot when Uncle Nate is away.” He liked his food that he would cook for him but he always said he hated it just to be funny.
Parker smile became huge when Peter asked him what he did. “I feel fine dad I promise.” He brushed it off knowing very well he was fine and that he had helped his dad. “Try your power out.” He had been waiting to see what his father could do. “What’s your power?” He started moving about waiting to see what it was. He was getting impatient.
