The Elite Life of Zack and Cody

"Cody, check it out! I figured out a way to roast marshmallows in the lobby!" Zack yelled.

Cody zoomed into the lobby riding an ostrich. He hopped off, grabbed a marshmallow, and warmed it over the grill. Mr. Moseby walked into the lobby and screamed, "Why must I be surrounded by such hooligans?" It clearly was a typical day at the Tipton. But in just a few hours, the world would be flipped upside down.

After stuffing their mouths with marshmallows, they sure were messy. They took the elevator up to their suite and their mom said "Did you kiss a snowman?" as she looked at Cody's mouth. "Go take a shower," she commanded.

"But Mom, there's going to be a big debate about the Pythagorean Theorem at the math club in a few minutes!"

"Why don't you just join the nerd club?" Zack joked.

"That's not nice, Zack. And sorry Cody, but the shower is more important," said their mom.

Cody sighed and said, "Okay, I guess the math club can solve equations without me."

Cody started taking a shower. All of a sudden, he was being sucked into the drain. He screamed. His body raced at the speed of light. Then it stopped. Somehow he was fully clothed.

He stared at the dark, gray floor, catching his breath. He saw a man's shoes and slowly looked up to see a tall man in a suit and sunglasses. "You're right on time, Cody," Now where is Zack?"

Another voice screamed. This time, it was Zack. "Whoa! What just happened, dude?" he said as he brushed himself.

"I don't know!" Cody said, exasperated. "Who are you?" he questioned the suited man.

"My name is Jendo and I'm from a society called the Elite Kings. Zack and Cody, you know not your true parents."

"I wish I didn't know my parents," Zack joked.

"You don't! An evil scientist named Dr. Tetherstein separated you from your true parents at birth because he knew that you two have... powers!"

"Powers?" Cody asked nervously.

"Indeed. Cody, you have been blessed with extraordinary mathematical skill. Zack, you have been bestowed with immense comedy genius. The two of you, however, have been prevented from reaching your full potential. That is because you have not been raised by your true parents," Jendo explained.

"So let me meet them!" Zacked said anxiously.

Jendo laughed and shook his head. "If only it were that easy! Dr. Tetherstein has captured your parents and put them in an undisclosed location. That's why I brought you boys here."

"To help you find them?" Cody asked.

"Precisely," said Jendo. "We begin our mission at midnight."
