By the time Violet made up her mind and went into the old building no one was in sight. She was almost tempted to relieve herself of her invisibility, but just to be on the safe side she remained invisible. She looked around and her eyebrows furrowed.

There was nothing in there at all. No doors, no other rooms, nothing. All that was in there was a blank solid wall 10 centimeters in front of her.

There has to be a catch to this, Violet mused. No one disappears out of thin air. Well... unless they are as unique as I am.

She slowly approached the brick wall and pushed her palms up against it. There didn't appear to be any secret passageways here. Or was there?

Violet mused. She slowly approached the brick wall and pushed her palms up against it. There didn't appear to be any secret passageways here. Or was there?

Violet continued to push on the wall in different places. But nothing out of the ordinary seemed to trigger anything. "Well I guess I was wrong. Perhaps I imagined the whole thing. I am feeling a bit tired, maybe all I need is rest." Violet said aloud, "It was silly of me to think that Syndrome might've returned from the dead."

"Password correct." Said a computerized voice from the wall.

Violet fell backwards from her shock. On the floor she watched with wide eyes as the wall in front of her opened up into a secret passageway that led to a tunnel. The tunnel had a long red carpet inside running all the way to the other side with torches lit along the walls. However, she didn't have time to gaze at it all day. The wall was beginning to close up shortly after it had opened. Panicking she picked herself off the floor and dived into the gap in the wall, landing on the floor of the tunnel just in time before it closed up.

Her heart pounded a million miles per second. Her mind was racing on what to do next. What word had activated the password? Was it something she said or pushed? Violet tried to think back on her actions, and her choice of words.

"Of course!" Violet thought, "I said Syndrome's name. That must be the password. So I was right. She is still working for him. And that confirms that he is still alive then."

She gulped. Her arch nemesis was still alive. But how could that be? He blew up! She saw him blow up. Or did she? Maybe by some miracle he survived the blast. Well it was obvious that he had. Who else would create such a password.

Reviving from her shock, she stood up and looked down the long tunnel. It was then she realized that only half of it was lit up by torches. The other half of the tunnel was pitch black.

She traveled down the hallway until she reached the dividing line between light and darkness. If she took a torch from the wall there would be a floating torch walking through the tunnel to any spectators that may be watching. But if she went without a torch, she would be blind within the darkness. Her choices were limited. Either way there were many chances of getting caught in this situation.

With her inner instinct Violet leaned up on the tip of her toes to reach one of the torches on the walls. She never noticed that there was another torch besides her's missing on the wall.

With a lit torch in hand, she stepped into the darkness. Shadows danced along the walls as she walked down it slowly. Her invisibility was off now. She figured if she went into the darkness unaware of her surroundings because she had no light then she would not know what to expect. All in all, there was not many options. She just hoped that she made the right decision.

It felt like she had been walking down the tunnel for hours, but in reality it was only minutes when she finally reached a door. She examined it, wondering how she able to get in. There was no knob on the door, and she already tried pushing on it. Nothing worked. There must be a catch to it. Violet just had to find out what that was exactly.

There was a sound down the tunnel of a wall opening up then it was soon welcomed by echoing footsteps. Violet's eyes grew wide, her mind scrambled on what to do. She put the fire out on the torch and went into invisible mode sitting the torch on the ground somewhere. It would seem rather strange to the oncoming visitor if there was a floating torch.

A man in a strange uniform awfully similar to the ones Syndrome's goons wore before, was approaching. Violet covered her mouth with her hand to keep herself from breathing out too loudly. As the footsteps grew nearer and nearer. Violet's heartbeats grew louder and louder. She was almost surprised that the sound of her heartbeat didn't giveaway her hiding place. But as the man approached the door, he was unaware of her presence, and was obviously unaware of the unlit torch beside his left foot.

The man said "Syndrome is the best" and a computer keyboard popped out beside the door. Violet squinted her eyes and paid close attention to the numbers he pushed. He was a quick typist, it was almost hard to memorize what he typed in. But somehow she managed. There was a click sound of many locks being undone from behind the door, then it opened abruptly and closed instantly when he entered. It was far too quick for her to sneak but from a glimpse of it she could see that there was no one inside. Violet waited for a moment to give the man time to walk far from the door, for when she came in he wouldn't be suspicious about the door opening automatically by itself.

Violet approached the door and cleared her throat. She hoped that the computer had no voice activator to it. Her heart was still pounding in her chest and her forehead and palms were starting to sweat from being so nervous. She clenched her fists, and licked her dry lips so she could speak.

"Syndrome is the best." Violet exclaimed clearly and loudly.

Nothing.

"Syndrome is the best." Violet repeated, this time more weakly.

Nothing.

"Syndrome is the best!" Violet said more forcefully this time.

"Password denied."

Her heart leaped out of her chest.

"State name."

Violet froze. This was not going as well as she had hoped. The security was tighter than she had expected. She couldn't say her name, nor could she just stand there and not say anything. It would probably let lose some kind of trap or laser guns or something.

Then a flying object flew out of some kind of opening in the wall. It paused in front of where she stood and scanned the area, starting from the left, Violet held her breath when it crept towards her direction. When it did reach her direction, it stopped. And then all hell broke lose.

"Intruder alert! Intruder alert!" Screamed the computerized voice.

Violet jumped and ran for it. The tunnel that was once dark was now flashing with red and yellow lights. She only hoped that she could make it out of there before someone caught her. Unfortunately the door swung open and half a dozen troops were marching in her direction. But she noticed that they paused.

"There is no body here." Said the leader.

Violet stopped running so that they couldn't hear the sound of her footsteps. But she still kept itching towards her freedom.

"Move out of my way." Said a feminine voice ordered. Violet turned around to see Mirage push her way past the troops.

"Allow me." She said, and pulled out a gadget from her pocket. It looked like a large remote. She pressed a bottom on it, and it scanned the area. On the computerized screen it showed a girl standing before them, Mirage looked up but saw no one. At first she wondered if maybe something was wrong with her computer then she peered down at the name of the girl that said, Violet Parr. She pointed her boney finger in Violet's direction. "She's right there! Get her!"

"But there's nothing there, miss!"

"Yes there is! It's one of the Incredible's daughter. She's invisible! Get her, now!" She ordered.

They were coming right for Violet now. She didn't know what to do. So she just ran. Once they heard the pounding of her feet hitting the floor they quickened their paste and was inches behind her. When they were close enough to her one took out a stun-gun type appliance that zapped her.

Violet felt her body stiffen, she tried to scream but she couldn't. Bolts of electricity ran through her veins paralyzing her. Just before collapsing to the floor she felt herself turn visible again. The last thing she saw was approaching feet, then everything turned black...

A/N: I can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving. Hopefully I can post Chapter 4 up. I will be really busy this week because I have a huge Psychology test to study for, then a Zoology test. So its really hectic right now. I looked over this chapter twice for typo's but I'm sure I still have some in there. So I am sorry to those of you who are very agitated about that stuff. But anyway... I will update as soon as possible. Meanwhile, R & R!! Feed me good compliments to make my life much easier. You can even feed me flames if you want, it gives me something to laugh about. P
