It all began on August 20, 2017. A day before the total solar eclipse. In Swellview, everyone was getting ready for the eclipse. Everyone was celebrating. Some people were hanging up banners that were in red, white and blue. Some of the banners had Great American Eclipse on it while others had a picture of a total solar eclipse. In the Man Cave, Cheyenne was done working on Cindy's and Mindy's costumes for the party tonight at the Busby's. The Busbys were friends of the Manchester family and they were really nice people. Adam Busby was Ray's friend. He knew of Ray's secret while Danielle and the quintuplets were all friends of Cheyenne's.

"Okay, girls. Costumes are done." Cheyenne said as she looked at her two masterpieces.

Mindy came running in, along with Ray, who was holding Cindy in his arms. Cindy was asleep.

"What you got there, Cheyenne?" Ray asked as he was standing right beside Cheyenne.

"I have a yellow dress, with a beautiful sun piece for Cindy and a black dress, with a beautiful new moon piece for Mindy." Cheyenne said as she was showing Ray the two costumes.

Just as Cheyenne was showing Ray the two costumes, Henry came in.

"Henry, why are you here? Did I butt beep you?" Ray said, wondering why Henry automatically showed up.

"Nothing was going on at the house, so I decided to go ahead and come down here. What's going on?" Henry said, giving an explanation.

He then looked over at Cheyenne.

"Hi, Cheyenne. Nice costumes," Henry said as he was giving Cheyenne a hug and looking at the two costumes at the same time.

"Thank you, Henry. I made these myself." Cheyenne said, complimentary.

"Uh, why?" Henry asked.

He was confused about the situation.

"Because, Henry, tonight's the pre-eclipse party and the twins and I are going to perform a ballet about the eclipse and what to expect." Cheyenne said, explaining.

It took a moment for Henry to process that through his hallow brain.

"Oh. Okay. I get it. So, you're going to show the Busbys what a solar eclipse is through a ballet?" Henry said, finally getting Cheyenne's idea.

"That's right, Henry. Cindy's going to be the sun and Mindy's going to be the moon." Cheyenne said, explaining what the twins were going to be.

Henry then realized that there was something missing.

"But, who's going to be the Earth? A solar eclipse can't be done without the Earth." Henry said, proving his point about what happens in a total solar eclipse.

Cheyenne went over to her closet, opened it up and picked out her Earth costume.

"Relax, Henry. I'm going to be the Earth." Cheyenne said, in a calm voice as she was showing Henry her Earth costume, which was half blue and half green and the headpiece was the Earth.

Henry sighed in relief, knowing that his girlfriend was going to be portraying the Earth in the ballet.

As Henry and Cheyenne were talking, little miss Cindy, who was still in Ray's arms, asleep, was now beginning to wake up. She had tears in her eyes, meaning that she was in pain. It was almost time for her to take her medicine for her legs.

"Hey there, Cindy. Glad to see that you're awake." Ray said, looking down at the little who girl that was in his arms.

Cindy cried out in pain.

Ray's watch beeped.

"It's okay, Cindy. I know you're hurting. Let's go give you your medicine." Ray said as he was trying to calm Cindy down.

He then left, with Cindy in his arms.

Just when Ray got into the living room, Schwoz was there, with the medicine that was in a brown bottle. The medicine was for Cindy's legs, that were always getting blood clots, which of course, she was so small which was why she had to be treated like a baby.

As Schwoz was measuring the medicine in a syringe to give to Cindy, Ray's phone began to ring.

With one hand holding Cindy, he used his other free hand to get his phone. He then answered it.

"Hey, Adam," Ray said.

"Hey, Ray." Adam answered.

"How are you?" Ray asked.

"Good. And you?" Adam said, wanting to know.

"I'm doing fine. I'm just about to give Cindy her three o'clock medicine dose." Ray said, keeping his eyes on Cindy.

"Ready for the eclipse party that's going to go down tonight at our house?" Adam asked, excited.

"You bet I am. The girls, Henry and I are getting ready now." Ray said as Schwoz was helping him with giving Cindy the medicine, which she hated.

"Just remember that the party is at five o'clock." Adam said.

"I know, Adam." Ray said.

"Well, I'd better let you go, brother." Adam said.

"Yeah. Okay, Adam. Bye." Ray said.

"Bye." Adam said.

They both hung up.

Cheyenne, Mindy and Henry came down the stairs from the sprocket and they were carrying the costumes.

"I'll go ahead and take these costumes to the Man Van." Henry said as Schwoz was helping him put the costumes into a blue bag.

"Please be careful with them, Henry. They're too delicate to ruin." Cheyenne said, cautiously as Henry was walking to the elevator, carrying the bag that had the costumes in it.

"Don't worry, Cheyenne. I'll make sure that these costumes and headpieces won't have a scratch on them." Henry said, now getting into the elevator.

The door closed behind him.

4:15 PM

Everyone was getting ready to go to the Busby's.

Cheyenne was helping the twins get dressed into their yellow solar eclipse t-shirts.

On the front of their t-shirts, in black and white lettering said The Busbys are going to be eclipsed in darkness and on the back of the t-shirts, it had their last name Manchester and below that, it had their first name.

Henry came out, wearing the same thing except on the back, his last name Hart was on there.

Ray came out with the same t-shirt that Cheyenne, Mindy and Cindy had on.

He was also carrying Cindy's diaper bag.

He went over to Cheyenne and picked Cindy up.

"Okay, everyone. Let's go." Ray said as he was walking over to the elevator.

Cheyenne, Mindy and Henry followed Ray, who was holding Cindy and carrying her.

(Okay. So, Cindy's a four year old little girl that is being treated like a baby because she is so small and Mindy is an eight year old who girl. What'd you think? Please tell me in your review. Also, stay tuned for chapter two!)
