February, 2022...
Nearly 20 years have passed since Will Stronghold started Sky High. Now Will Stronghold is 33 and happily married to Layla Williams. They have already been married for 14 years and had two children who were going to start Sky High in seven months. Their son Danny Stronghold took after Will. Danny had Will's super strength and the ability to fly. Their daughter Rose Stronghold took after Layla. Rose had the ability to control plants and she could also talk to animals just like her grandmother Flora. Danny had Brown hair and blue eyes just like Will and Rose had Layla's red hair and brown eyes.
During Will's sophomore year; he would assist his parents in fighting crime; making them the Stronghold 3. During graduation Will got to chose who his partner would be. He of course chose Layla but he also decided that he wanted his friends to be a part of it. They were known as the Fantastic 7. Will, Layla, Warren, Zach, Ethan, Magenta and Crystal. They made a great team and were unstoppable against all the super villains they battled.
Their was a super villain known as Metal Block who was lifting up cars and knocking buildings over. "Okay, you stay here Layla." Will took her to a garden rooftop. "And if this villain is too much; you know what to do."
"I know but I'm sure this something the great Will Stronghold can handle." She joked.
"And we might need our friends." He said.
"Just go."
He flew over to Metal Block. Before he could throw a punch; Metal Block knocked him into a building. Will immediately got up and slammed his fists into the ground causing the street to shake and Metal Block tumbled down.
Layla raised her hands in the air and vines erupted from the plant she was manipulating. She had her focus on Metal and he was wrapped up in the vines.
"Well that was a piece of cake." Will flew over to the tied up villain, lifted him up and flew off to put the villain back in his rightful place; jail.
In a prison cell was a villain that Will hasn't faced for nearly 20 years. A certain villain and her well known gang. Gwen Grayson also known as Royal Pain and Sue Tenny. She has been in this prison for nearly 20 years; she was bent on getting revenge on that dang Will Stronghold and his friends. "That dang Will Stronghold! I will get my revenge on him!" She yelled.
"So," Spoke a deep voice. "You're not the only one who has issues with that dang Stronghold and his wife? We can all work together. I shall set us free and then we will have our revenge." It was Metal Block.
He threw his fist at his prison cell and it broke. He was now in the cell that Royal Pain, Stitches, Speed, Lash and Penny were in. Metal broke the bars with his bare hands; freeing them. They all laughed evilly. They defeated the guards that tried to stop them and left the joint.
"Who are you?" Royal Pain asked.
"You'll find out soon enough but for now; you can just call me Metal Block." The mysterious villain replied.
"Well what are we waiting for?" Speed asked.
"Yeah, let's get those losers." Lash said.
"Not yet. First we're going to my evil lair and we'll come up with a plan in there." Metal Block explained.
7 months have passed since their escape and they have been hiding out in Metal Block's lair. 20 years since Will started Sky High; his kids were going. Layla smiled at Will. "I can't believe this Will. It feels like just yesterday when they were born and now they're already getting ready to start Sky High."
He chuckled. "Yeah I know. Unlike me when I was Danny's age; he already has his powers."
Danny had discovered his powers near the end of the eighth grade.
"I think they're gonna do great Will." They shared a quick kiss.
Danny and Rose came downstairs for breakfast. "Are you excited for Sky High?" Will asked.
Rose rolled her eyes. "Here we go."
Danny grinned. "Of course."
Will chuckled. "I want you to be careful. I don't want you to make the same mistakes I did or trust the wrong people."
Danny looked confused. "What do you mean?"
"Well-" Before Will could say anything; a phone rang and he answered it. "Layla, Electra is terrorizing the city."
She moaned. "But I really wanted to see them get on the bus."
"Mom!" Danny was embarrassed and Rose smirked finding this all amusing.
"Don't you remember in Preschool when he would not let go of my leg?" Layla asked.
Danny's cheeks were growing redder. "Mom!"
"Ooh!" Rose teased.
"Stuff it!" Danny yelled at her.
"We better get going." Will told Layla before turning to Danny. "And remember what I told you son. Be careful. As a matter of fact; both of you be careful."
"Yeah, yeah." Rose replied sarcastically. Unlike her mom; Rose was carefree, tough, sassy, really loved to annoy people and was somewhat superficial and conceited. She always had something to say and would not let people mess with her. Also she loved to show off and annoy her brother constantly.
Danny began to ponder on what Will was trying to tell him; then shrugged it off. Parents could be over protective, he guessed. After picking up Layla; Will took off in the air. Danny and Rose left the house and headed for the bus stop. "Man did mom really humiliate you." Rose went on.
"Just drop it already Rose."
A bus pulled up. The bus driver was Ron Wilson. "Hey, you're Stronghold's children."
"And you're the guy that fell into a vat of toxic waste and don't you work for the mayor?" Danny asked.
"Yeah but I decided I also wanted to be a bus driver again."
"Oh."
Danny and Rose got on the bus and all attention was on them. Danny was a bit nervous but Rose was enjoying the attention. Their friends; Fuchsia, Randy, Icy and Zucko were also going to Sky High with them. Fuchsia was Zach and Magenta's and she could shape shift into a guinea pig and glow in the dark. Randy was Ethan and Peyton's. He melted into a puddle just like Ethan. Icy and Zucko were Warren and Crystal's. Icy could freeze just like her mother and Zucko controlled fire just like his dad. "Hey, how was your summer man?" Randy asked Danny.
"Uh great." He replied.
"Hey Ice, Fuchsia." Rose greeted as she sat next to Icy.
"How was your summer?" Icy asked.
"Great and this is a new outfit as you can see." Rose replied pointing at her pink flower designed blouse and hot pink knee length skirt.
Ron drove to the end of the road. "Alright, next stop; Sky High."
