Hi! This is the second chapter of my story Viomist and the Soaring Ghost (duh). Thanks so much to The Star Swordsman and rockergirl13 for reviewing: ) Okay, I'm gonna make a new rule for this fic: I have to have at least three reviews for each chapter before I update. I am posting this one with just two reviews of chapter one, but from now on please review, okay? Thanks! Enjoy!

Mia and Violet soon became close friends. They hung out every day after school. Mia didn't have any siblings, but she did have a Golden Retriever called Star and a Paint mare named Splash. Violet thought Mia's house very relaxing: no Dash zooming around causing trouble, no Jack-Jack cracking up at every little thing. Mia, on the other hand, enjoyed the liviness and activity at Violet's house. She got lonely sometimes and wished for a little sister.

Mia had guessed early in the year about Violet's crush on Tony. Actually, she'd figured it out shortly after the first day of school, when Violet stared at Tony so much she almost missed her name on the roll call. But Mia had a secret crush too, and she was good at keeping secrets. Vi would not have figured it out at all if they had not been walking down the hallway at the same time as Sam Chance, a cute eighth grade boy, was coming their way.

When Mia saw him coming, she involuntarily tripped over her own foot and sprawled against a locker. Sam didn't notice and continued in the opposite direction, talking with one of his friends.

"Mia, you okay?" asked Violet. "What happened?"

"N-Nothing. Nothing at all." stammered Mia, staring after Sam.

Violet followed her friend's gaze and smiled. "You like him, huh?" she whispered.

Mia blushed. "Yeah," she said. "I was hoping you would never find out."

'Don't worry, I wouldn't tell." said Violet. "Why would I? I'm your friend."

Mia smiled. "Thanks, Vi."

That had been back in October, and now, three months later, the two girls trusted each other completely. They told each other important secrets. But one day after school, when Mia was over at Violet's house, she found out Violet's best kept secret - the one she'd intended for no one to discover.

Dash was zooming around the house at the speed of a normal human boy (their mother, Helen Parr, had given them specific instructions that whenever friends were over, they were to behave normally and hide their powers). He accidentally bumped his mother's antique vase, and it tipped off the shelf and began to fall. Violet, without even thinking, automatically shot out a force field around the vase before it could land and break. It bounced once on the carpet and came to rest there.

Violet released the force field and placed the vase back up on the shelf. She turned around - and suddenly realized what she'd done.

Mia stood there, eyes bugging out and mouth hanging open. "Wh...Wh...What...?"

Violet grabbed her friend's wrist and pulled her into her room. "Okay, Mia. Now you know my deepest, darkest secret. I am a superhero. And so is the rest of my family. We're all superheros. You've got to promise not to tell anyone, ever, all right?"

"Sure, Vi, but...I'm a super too."

Violet gaped at her friend. "You...You're a...superhero?"

"Yes - me and my parents. My dad can generate electricity, and my mom is able to shoot fire. I am the superhero jack-of-all-trades, apparently: I can fly, communicate with animals, turn invisible, and see in total or near darkness. It's pretty cool. How about your powers?"

"Well, I can turn invisible too, and generate force fields."

"Awesome. Also, my horse, Splash - she's not a normal horse. She can speak perfect English, fly, and she's got an invisible horn that is filled with enormous magical qualities."

"Wow." said Violet. "Hey, you know, we should become a team, the three of us. We can protect the city from evil and stuff. What should we call ourselves?"

"Hmm...what about Team Dynamo?"

"Cool! What about our individual names?"

Mia thought for a minute. "I like...the Soaring Ghost for me. And how about PegaSplash for my horse, because she can fly and all?"

"Sure. I'll call myself Viomist."

"I like it. You know, Vi, this could really work out well."

Well, how is it? Please R&R and tell me! Constructive critisism only please! Thanks!
