Chapter One
A discovery
Two years later
"Come on, you three, hurry up! We have to get this project done fast!" said Lori. "Lori! Slow down! We aren't as fast as you!" said Jesse. Lori Lopez, Jesse Martin, Nina Boyce, and Ray Martinez are four best freinds who are all 14, and have superpowers. "Finally! We're here!" Said Nina. For their summer project, they were going to explore the old factory on the top of Higgins hill. Once they were inside, they found a room labled 'freeze room' they looked inside the window. "There are people in here!" said Ray. Lori pushed the 'defrost' button. They could see that it was getting warmer. Vialo, Jasper, Ella, and Steve came to life. They walked out, Vialo and Jasper holding hands. "Who are you? What year is this?" asked Vialo. "My name is Lori Lopez, this is Jesse Martin, this is Nina Boyce, and last is Ray Martinez. this is the year 2007. School just got out." said Lori. "Oh man,... guys, we've been frozen for two years! It looks like we've grown during that time, also!" Said Vialo, noticing the change in height. "Oh! My name is Vialo Wilson, This is my boyfreind Jasper Talley, This is Ella Newbie, and this is Steve Hawks. Thank you for defrosting us." said Vialo. They turned to leave."W-Wait where are you going?" asked Nina. "Home." said Jasper. "Can we follow you?"asked Jesse. "Sure, but be quick, we go fast." said Ella.

At Jasper's house, their parents and families were more than glad to see them. They explained what happend and introductions were made. Lori and the others were rewarded. Vialo was talking to Lori in private. "So where is your family?" asked Lori. "They all died in a fire when I was 12 years old. ever since, I've been staying with Jasper's family ever since. Our families were close. Jasper's family gladly took me in. Me and Jasper started going out when we were 13." said Vialo. "Wow. I'm so sorry. I wish there was sometihng I could do." said Lori. "Yeah, if only you could." said Vialo. All of a sudden, there was a scream. "What was that?" asked Lori. "Don't know. Let's go check it out." Vialo said. When they got to the others, every thing seemed normal. Jasper was holding a paper, his face hard as stone. "Vialo, a brick wrapped in a paper came through the door when we opened it to go outside. Look who it's from." he said. Vialo took the paper, her hands trembling. In bold letters, it said: Jack and Jess. She read the letter aloud. It says: Dear Vialo, we knew you losers got unfrozen. We saw the news. We will take someone dear to you losers, and the rest... is a surprise. Losers. Jess and Jack. "What do you think they mean by 'someone dear?" asked Ella. "I don't know, but I don't think I want to find out." Steve said. "Well, we should at least try to find Jack and Jess. Lets go to the secret place and get ready." said Vialo.

The next day, Vialo, Ella, Jasper, and Steve went to the most unexpected place for Jack and Jess to hide: The construction site. "Well, we're here. Lets check it out." said Jasper. They split up into two teams. Vialo and Jasper, and Ella and Steve. When they were inside, Vialo spotted something glimmering in the darkness. She walked over to it. Then suddenly, a door came down right behind her, and she felt the area move. "What's happening? Jasper help me!" Yelled Vialo. She heard cables moving, then heavy footsteps above her. "Jasper! Get me out of here!" yelled Vialo. Jasper opened a door above her, and pulled her out. She grabbed the object. "What did you find?" Vialo handed him the object. "A locket? T-That looks like..... Jack and Jess?!" said a surprised Jasper. Ella and Steve somehow found them. "Well, we didn't find anything." said Steve. All of a sudden, Vialo screamed. "VIALO!" excliamed Jasper. Vialo was being dragged away. "H-H-HELP ME! SOMEBODY HELP!" Vialo yelled. A giant machine appeared controlled by [of course] Jack. His robot held up a screaming Vialo. "Let her go, Jack." said Jasper, going into his super mode. Vialo, Ella and Steve also went into their super mode. Vialo was able to break the robot's hand that held her up. All of a sudden, Jess burst through the wall. "Jack!" she exclaimed. Jess stomped over to him. "I thought you said we would do the plan together! What's wrong with you?" asked Jess as she yelled at him. "I changed my mind! Got a problem with that?" Jack shot back at her. As they fought, Vialo and the others snuck away. "Ah, young love." whisperd Steve. Ella giggled. Later, they were at the secret place. The secret place is their base of operations, you know, where you talk and see what's happening. In this case, what will happen.

When Vialo opened her eyes, she saw that she wasn't in her room. "Where am I?" she wondered aloud. What will happen now? Vialo asked herself. "Oh, it's you, Mari, You scared me." a voice said. "Heh. Well you have to be sneaky if you are a ninja as high ranked as me. Any word about Vialo yet?" asked Mari. "No. We know she's still alive, we can sence it. She is my sister, after all. " said the voice. "Okay. Good luck, Taylor." said Mari. Taylor? My sister? She's alive? Vialo thought. All of a sudden, Vialo was pulled back to reality. "Vialo? Did you have another vision?" asked Jasper, shaking her awake. "Yeah, I-I'm okay. Jasper, my family is alive." Vialo said. "That's great news, Vialo!" said Ella. "Yeah, but where are they?" asked a voice. The four turned around. They saw a girl with black hair and blue highlites. She had on black clothes, fingerless gloves and combat boots on. She had a black choker with a amulet on. "My name is Serina Salas. I have come to help protect Vialo from the shadows." said the girl. All of a sudden, there was an explosion. "Gosh Nate, what did you do?" asked Serina. A boy, covered in smoke walked in the room. Vialo blew the smoke off him."Thanks. Hey, you're Vialo!" He turned to Serina. "Did you tell her about the shadows yet?" said Nate. "I was about to when you made that explosion!" Serina yelled at Nate. "Anyway, the shadows are monsters controled by an unknown evil. They steal hearts then trap them, then a shadow is created. Our job is to find Vialo and help her destoy the shadow master." said Serina.
