This story is purely recreational superhero fantasy. Any resemblance to actual people, superheroes or reality is entirely coincidental. Any comments acknowledging this are unnecessary, although positive comments are sincerely appreciated. Other feedback is also welcomed using the email form.
The brief prologue provides helpful background to the story, but doesn't contain any sex. However, the intensity of suspense and sex both take off with the first chapter.
Most of all, I hope you enjoy this first episode of Goldie, the super hero.

Prologue
There are probably many who wake up one day and want to be a superhero (for lack of a better word). Being a superhero just means I have abilities others don't have, and because I do, I also have a rare responsibility. I am willing to use any powers I have and to do anything necessary to fulfill that responsibility. I was bred for this.
My parents met working in secret government labs developing experimental bio-chemical enhancements for military and law enforcement applications. They were both senior scientists, a significant accomplishment for their young ages. Unlike the stereotype of scientific nerds, they were both physically attractive well-built athletes. Their competitiveness and passion were qualities that no doubt helped both of them advance so quickly through the scientific ranks. As fate would have it, their "chemistry" caused them to fall madly in love with one another.
Their two passions in life were science and each other. With all of their research on physiological enhancements of the human body, they enjoyed dabbling on the side with experimental aphrodisiacs and sexual intensifications. Their favorite project was one to multiply the body's intensity of orgasms, what they called Sexual Experience Multiplied, or seX. They enjoyed testing their research on each other during lunch breaks or to take their research home at night. Their dedication to this research and willingness to subject themselves to scientific trials was unmatched.
One afternoon, they had a major breakthrough on a secret government project they were working on called Focused Launch of Intention Reversal Technology or FLIRT. They enjoyed the playful coincidence of the acronym while working on the serious project together. The goal of their research was to create a serum that gave the power of "Intention Reversal."
Let me explain. The brain is remarkable for all it is capable of. It is often said we only use 10% of our brain's capacity. That is largely because we only use it for basic thinking, processing and problem solving. Yet we've all experienced more. Think back to a dream you've had that seemed so real you felt certain it happened. The dream caused your heart to race, your voice to speak, your body to sweat or give you the pleasure of a "wet" dream. In those dreams you've had clear interactions with people you've met or never met before. Your brain created a bodily reality that was as real as your daily life. The right impulses can cause our brain to enter this entirely new dimension of functioning, creating real life experiences through imagination connected with our body's nervous system and senses. My parent's studies worked to harness the brain's capabilities, taking it to a new level.
Much like dreams, once the brain is kicked into this higher dimension of functioning, it naturally launches a person into a "real life" experience of whatever is foremost on their mind at the moment. (That is why our dreams at night are often related to something we have just experienced during the day.) These experiences launch people into new alternate reality, a little like Alice falling down the proverbial rabbit hole. Another way to think of it is a hallucination on steroids, but the hallucination becomes real. Far more powerful than a drug induced hallucination, the brain takes over to create and sustain the new reality. The person actually experiences what the brain creates. They are launched into a state and world of their own making, fully experiencing for themselves whatever their immediate intentions were at that moment, whether good or evil.
My parents realized that if an attacker could be forced into this state, their foremost thoughts of injuring or doing harm to others would be turned onto themselves. The assailant's entire mind and body would be locked into experiencing what they had intended to do to others. The possibilities of this Intention Reversal technology are limitless, and in the wrong hands, dangerous. The world would be a better place, not only if people lived by the golden rule of doing to others as you would have them do to you, but the platinum rule: experience for yourself what you intend to do to others.
With his breakthrough, my father was convinced their serum would give a person the power to trigger intention reversal in others by simply locking eyes with them. If it worked, it would be their greatest scientific breakthrough. He was eager to begin human trials, but the higher-ups felt it was too dangerous until they had more data.
