if you saw this weeks episode, you know her power is cool as hellDana Davis, one of the new actors for Season 2 of NBC's Heroes, said her character, Monica, in some ways is like Hiro from Season 1.
"It's top-secret what my ability is," Davis said. "But I can say that a lot of characters in Heroes don't embrace their abilities, but Monica does. It's fun what her ability is, and it's so exciting. And it changes her life because life's sort of dealt her a bad hand of cards and here's this thing and it excites her and it gives her a one-way ticket out of her life, which kind of sucks.
"So, she's really excited about it. And I think it's fun she brings that excitement to it."

Davis said unlike most Heroes characters, Monica doesn't seem burdened by her powers.
"In the first season, Hiro was very excited about his powers," Davis said. "And as he is maturing, he is going through different phases. And I think Monica is bringing back that excitement and energy to having powers."
Monica is the cousin of Micah Sanders, who, at the end of last Monday's episode, was dropped off by his mother Niki to live with the extended family for a spell.
"We find Monica in post-Katrina New Orleans," Davis said. "She lost her family in the hurricane. Micah goes to stay with his cousins, and she's sort of taking care of the family. In the hurricane, she lost her family and she becomes the bread-winner of the family.
"So she's working this dead-end job at the Burger Bonanza. And she's taking care of her little brother and her grandmother, and now she's taking care of Micah as well."
