Violet sat up and rubbed her eyes, tucking her hair behind her ears. Jack Jack was crying. She picked him up. "Mama, Mama!" He cried.
"Shh, Jack Jack, settle down! Mama will be here soon." She looked around and saw Dash a bit of the ways down the alleyway they were hiding in. "Dash, what are you doing?" He was wearing normal clothes, probably with his suit still underneath.
He turned to look at his sister. "Uh-oh."
"Where did you get those?!" Jack Jack continued to cry.
"Um… the house?"
"You went off alone!?" She practically screamed at him, but of course she controlled her volume since they were supposed to be hiding.
He rolled his eyes. "I used my super speed. No one saw me."
"But someone might have. What if the cops were at the house waiting for us?"
"Oh, they were."
His sister sighed. "Is that all you got? A change of clothes for yourself?" 'And did you see Mom and Dad?' she wanted to add, but didn't want to work Jack Jack up more by mentioning them. Besides, if he had found them they would be here.
He laughed. "No. I got ya'll's stuff too." Before Violet could ask what he meant, he pulled out the incredibile remote. "It's in the incredibile though. And before you ask, I got a few changes of clothes, toiletries, money, and some non perishable food… and Diapers for Jack Jack. And I parked the car in an abandoned lot not far from here." Violet stared at him in shock. "Did I forget anything?"
"N… no, I just… you snagged all that with the cops there? Yeah right."
In reality, he had. He woke early in the morning, summoned the incredibile, drove to their new house, parked the car in the woods and got everything in around 8 trips. He was so fast and as far as he could tell, no one had seen him.
"I'll prove it!" and just like that he took off. Violet was furious.
By this time, Jack Jack had calmed down, so Violet set him down, making sure he didn't put anything in his mouth through the corner of her eye.
A few minutes later, an inconspicuous car drove up, and Dash climbed out. "Come on! You don't want to walk around in that, do you?" She hopped in and dash put Jack Jack in the back next to her. The back was piled with stuff.
Violet put on some clothes over her super-suit, and helped dress Jack Jack as well. Then after buckling in her youngest brother, she climbed into the driver's seat. "Where to captain?" Dash asked.
"Far from here, but first we need to see what's on the news."
Just then the automated voice of the incredibile came online. "Would you like me to tune into the local television station?" Violet didn't even know it could do that, but it worked. "Yes."
A flustered news reporter sat behind the desk. "We now take a break from this report to take you to breaking news outside the airport. Sarah?"
Now it was a middle-aged woman. "Steve, the sight here is simply unbelievable. Cars have been overturned and the stretch of road between the city and the airport has been completely demolished. All of this destruction seems to have been caused by an earthquake of some sort, but in light of recent events, the spread of the destruction has lead some to come to alternative conclusions. With me here is NSA agent Ronalds." He was a generic-looking man in a black suit. "Now agent Ronalds, what does the NSA think of all of this?"
"Well Ms. Sarah, the size of the tremor and the shape suggest that something was used to cause it, and given the direction the damage spreads out in, we at the NSA believe this was the work of another rogue super."
Super? Rogue? Another? Violet couldn't make any sense of this. Supers were almost legal again, so why would supers be going rogue?
"Agent Ronalds, do you believe these attacks could be part of a greater plot by the terrorists?"
"Maam, I can't reveal the NSA's exact thoughts on the matter, but I can say that it may be a possibility. We are trying to make sense of all of this ourselves."
"One more question. Can you tell the people at home anything about the search for the fugitive supers?"
"I can't reveal any specifics. If anyone might have information on where they are, I would advise them to contact the NSA immediately. However, the Incredible children are dangerous and if seen are not to be approached. The NSA has decided to release the secret identities of the fugitives later today to help narrow down the search. The public need not be afraid; we are handling the situation with your continued support."
Dash turned to his sister. "We're fugitives? Why?" He kept asking questions almost as fast as he could run, and Violet yelled at him to shut it. "I need to hear the rest!"
The original broadcaster was on again. "Thank you Sarah. Now we are about to replay the original terrorist footage from on board the hydroplane just minutes before the deadly crash. I will remind the public that the sole survivors from on board the ship were the three incredible children."
Violet gasped. It was her mom! She was hypnotized and saying a bunch of junk she never would believe. When it ended, it finally clicked. Whoever this Screenslaver was, he had framed supers once and for all. This was why they were shot at, why they were being hunted down.
And then she realized; the three of them had been the only ones on board to survive…
