The Incredible family sat at their dinner table, eating delicious roast beef and vegetables. It had now been two years since they'd saved the world from Syndrome and the Underminer. Violet's crush, Todd, was now her boyfriend and they were happy together. Dash was now 11 and about to graduate from primary school. He still did track, trying not to use his power and instead run with his natural ability. Jack-Jack was a clever toddler who could transform himself into just about anything. Edna's suit had been useful. Not much had changed with their parents, except that Bob now had a job as a builder and Helen (who now liked to be called Mrs. Incredible) worked as a pilot. The whole family was back into hero work now and the "Glory Days" had returned. As the family ate, they chatted about their latest defeat of their new nemesis, Sectar. He had the power to become a venomous snake at any time. When the family had eaten, Violet rushed to the computer to chat online with Todd, and Dash, well, dashed to the phone to call his best friend, Mike. Helen picked up Jack-Jack. "Bath-time!" she cooed. She began to walk to the bathroom. Suddenly, Jack-Jack turned himself into steel. "Aagh!" Helen screamed. She couldn't hold him, so she dropped him. He crashed through the wooden floors. No longer made of steel, he burst into tears. Violet and Dash sprinted towards them. "What…" Violet began, but she could easily see what had happened. Helen ripped off her ordinary clothes. Underneath she was wearing her hero suit, which could stretch as far as she needed it to. She lengthened her arms so that they could reach the teary toddler. She picked him up and cradled him in her arms. He had a large bump at the back of his head. "Why did you do that, Jack-Jack?" Helen asked.
"Don't like bath." He said. The family let out a collective sigh. Little did they know that Sectar, in his viper form, was hidden behind a curtain, listening in. "You don't like baths then, eh?" Sectar thought. "Well, maybe you can come with me, where it's dry." He laughed quietly yet evilly.
