"Jesse, your here," said Rex as he saw me coming, he was dressed in some light blue jeans, red T-Shirt, some black shoes, and a Blitz and Potato Head hat.

"Now we just have to wait for Lexi," said Josh as he saw me arriving, he was wearing jeans that were a darker shade of blue than mine, he had a dark blue T-Shirt, some Nike shoes, and he also had a backpack, it probably had the same things that mine had.

Amanda who was scrolling through her social media and looked up and saw me and said, "Hi," and waved then went back to using her phone, she was wearing black jeans, a purple T-Shirt, and some light blue shoes.

As I saw us all together I wondered how a group of us got together in the first place, they didn't like most of the same things, both Josh and I are book worms and like to play video games, Lexi and Amanda both loved to talk about some celebrities and gossip from school but usually not in front of the boys, and Rex sometimes joins us when we're doing things, he sometimes reads books that Josh and I like then we get into talks about them, joins us when we play video games and he knows enough things about celebrities to be invited to some of Lexi's and Amanda's talks or debates.

Although we don't have many things in common, all of our parents knew each other when they went to school. Our parents usually had backyard parties or 'get togethers' as they call it, and they spend hours talking with each other. We used to avoid each other in school, although we didn't have many friends and we didn't join anyone during lunch, we were the kids in the end of the table who was quiet, read, or just heard everything people said. Not until we started to have classes together did we actually met each other, Josh and I met in English class one day and we found out we both liked fantasy and sci-fi books so we spent the next 'get together' together. Amanda and Lexi met in Math when they were both bored and started talking to each other and found out a lot about the school they didn't know. Then Rex, he joined us one day when started hanging out in school, one day he just joined us during lunch, he was a little shy at first to talk to us but after a while he started talking more openly when we talked about topics he enjoyed.

That's how we met, even though we didn't like the some things, well mostly, we found a topic we all liked until a few months later, when Blitz and Potato Head first appeared, we all were excited when we found out that that we could met the hero's for a day. We've tried every year trying to meet them, but we've never meet them before though.

We loved them once they started stopping robberies, thiefs, and criminals. We were very grateful for our city, we had someone who could protect our city from crime, that is, until they were nearly defeated by Flare, he was the only person who could defeat both of them single handedly, but over the years, we think he has started to get tired of being a villain, his attacks have been going downhill over the last month, only an attack every 2 or 3 weeks. I think of these memories and thoughts as I get closer to Rex, Josh, and Amanda.

I can't tell how long they've been waiting there but I could tell we were all tired.

Then Rex's mom and dad came out and greeted me, "Jesse, it's nice to see you again," said Rex's mom then offered me some homemade cookies, I took two and ate them while waiting for Lexi with the others, Rex's dad came and offered me some water bottles, I accepted them and put them in my backpack, everyone was eating cookies while we waited, they were chocolate chip and they were fresh out of the oven, I truly loved both of Rex's parents, his parents were nice, Rex's mom looked just like Rex, with her blue eyes, and dark brown skin. Rex had his dad's nose and chin, his nose was kind of a turned up nose and his chin was squared.

Josh looked more like his mother, with brown eyes and a short and narrow chin. Josh had a few features like his dad, his white skin tone and his turned up nose.

Amanda looked more like her dad, her light brown skin tone and her dark brown hair, and she had her mothers eyes, grey eyes, and her square chin.

Lexi was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Jones, so we don't know who she looked like but she had light brown hair, pale skin, and hazel eyes.

Josh was the tallest person in the group, Rex and I were a few inches shorter than him, both of us about the same size, while Amanda was an inch or 2 smaller than us. Lexi was the shortest, 2 inches shorter than Amanda.

About 5 minutes later Lexi showed up, she was greeted by a lot of hi's and hello's. She was wearing blue jeans with a yellow shirt. "So, time to go, we should start heading out now that i'm here," said Lexi.

"Yeah lets go, we need to get to the subway early enough to get through and have some time to do something," I said. We all agreed to go now so we left Rex's house to go towards the subway, along the way we talked about what happened during our summer break.

Josh had a good time visiting Germany, he visited a lot of places like Churches, museums, monuments, and many other places. He also met a guy named Charlie, he lived in the US a few years ago but moved to Germany. He was pretty old, about 64 years old and Josh visited him a few times every week to keep him company. He also tasted a lot of foods that were from Germany, like egg noodles, roasted beef stew, beef rolls and many others. He didn't like half of them but he enjoyed the beef stew.

Rex was in summer camp most of the time, he went to live in a cabin with a few cabin mates. They stayed in the forest and found out things about the wilderness they didn't know about. Rex loved it, he met new friends that he promised to keep in contact with. He said the only bad thing was the food, it wasn't too bad but it wasn't the best, they served chilly at least 3 days a week, Rex got sick of it after his 4th time eating it.

Adriana spent most of her summer volunteering in the city, with trash clean up, taking care of Central Park, cleaning the streets, and helping the homeless. It wasn't to much fun but she enjoyed helping others and that made her happy.

Lexi didn't have much to do this summer other than sitting in her aunts couch and sleeping. She spent most of her time on her phone but she was forced to do another activity because of her parents, she decided to read magazines instead.

"So, how do we feel about going to High School in 2 weeks?" asked Rex as we walked through the streets of New York.

"Well I feel old now," replied Josh.

"Yeah I see how you think were getting older."

"Well we aren't adults yet so we aren't too old," I said.

"Well yeah, but we'll be 18 in 3 years, that's not too long," said Amanda.

"Ok, but we still have 3 years, that's a long time if you think about it," said Lexi.

"Yeah, ok," said Josh. After that we changed the subject to what were planning on doing if we don't met Blitz and Potato Head.

"We could visit the Empire State Building, we've all only gone once for a field trip, we could go again and watch the view," I suggested.

"We could but cant we just relax at home, play a few video games, eat some food, or something," suggested Rex. Josh seemed as if he agreed with him.

"Or we could go shopping," suggested Amanda. Lexi seemed like she liked that idea,

"Oh, yeah, we could go, I heard that they added a new shop to the mall," responded Lexi.

It seemed like they couldn't agree on what to do. I knew they were going to start arguing so Jesse decided to try and think of something.

"What if we just go to an arcade, we could play games there, and Amanda and Lexi could buy anything they want with the tickets we earn," I suggested.

They seemed to consider this while we walked, we were nearing the subway station, only a block away. Rex and Josh seemed to like the idea, it took awhile for the girls to agree but they eventually agreed.

"Ok, so we decided what to do if we don't get to met Blitz and Potato Head," said Rex as we got to the subway station. They paid for their entry, boarded the subway and were of to the event.
