Movie Night

Around 6:00, everyone piled into Zeilia's purple PT Cruiser.

"Nice ride." Jonsey complimented.

"Thanks, but Nikki already called shotgun." Jonsey glared at Nikki. "Everybody buckled up?" The group just nodded. "Allllllrighty then! Let's get going!"

"Isn't that the line from that one movie?" Caitlin asked.

"Ace Ventura? Yes it is, that's one of the movies I got."

"Cool."

"We're here everybody out." Everyone jumped out of the car and waited at the front door. Zeilia snapped her fingers and it opened.

"Nice place, very modern." Jonsey mused.

"Thanks, most of the furniture is from Venus."

"Cool."

Zeilia led them into her home theater, popped in the movie, and they all sat down on the couch.

"Nikki," Wyatt whispered, "I need to talk to you."

"Does it have to be now?" Nikki asked. "This is one of the best parts."

"Yes now!" Wyatt hissed.

"Fine!" Nikki said. "Let's go."

"Could you guys be quiet?" Zeilia asked. "If you need to talk you can go into the living room."

"Okay, thanks." Wyatt said as he dragged Nikki into the living room.

"Alright Wyatt, what is it?" Nikki asked.

"It's about Zeilia."

"Ohhhh, I think I know where this is going." Nikki smiled knowingly. "You like Zeilia."

"Yea, well, you and Zeilia seem really close, and I was wondering if you knew if she--" Just then, Jen burst into the living room.

"Something's wrong with Zeilia." She said. In seconds, Wyatt had disappeared in a blur of motion into the home theater. When Nikki and Jen had reappeared in the theater, they saw Zeilia sitting on the couch, staring into space with a shocked expression on her face. While Wyatt was kneeling so he was eye-to-eye with her, slightly shaking her.

"What happened?" He asked.

"She answered her phone, and, the person on the other end must have said something she didn't like."

"Oh." Wyatt said. "Zeilia? Zeilia are you okay? Hello? Earth to Zeilia?" He waved a hand in front of her face.

Finally, she spoke, "No." She whispered. "No, no, no, no, no!" She jumped up sending Wyatt flying. "Sorry Wyatt."

"No problem." He said getting up. "What was that about?"

"Well, do you want the straight out truth, or the sugarcoated version?"

"I think the truth would be best."

"How does the end of the world sound?"

Everyone looked at her with disbelief. "Th-the, end of the world?" Caitlin squeaked. Zeilia nodded.

"Here's the thing," Zeilia explained. "that guy, Daymoor, is taking a bomb bigger than this house," she spread her arms out. "and planting it as far as he can in the Earth's core. One more thing, we're the only ones that can stop him."

"What?" Jonsey asked.

"Wait a minute." Jen said. "Did you say we're the only ones? As in us!?"

"Anyone up for getting superpowers?" Zeilia smiled nervously.

"HECK YEAH!!!" Everyone looked towards Jude, who looked as if he'd won a million dollars.

"Follow me."
