Star Pov

I woke up early. I could tell because very little light filtered into the house. When I woke up my foot steps woke up Shadow. The 'Cave', as we have come to call it, is not

just a dank hollowed out area it was really nice actually. We diverted a small part of the river to travel through the cave it was about a foot deep an two feet wide. It

horse shoed in and out of the 'Cave' creating a little separated area that was about 6 feet at the farthest part of the river from the wall and was a about 9 feet wide at

its middle near the entrance. We would purify the water by light, or shadow, transporting the contents only leaving the water. We ate the fruit loops, I made a bowl out

of solidified light Shadow did the same thing, but with darkness, and drank some Dr. Pepper. Talked and played around with our powers for a few hours. It was fun and

all until I heard an all to familiar voice say,

"I hear people talking."

Then I heard another equally familiar voice say

"Iggy that's impossible we are at the bottom of the grand canyon."

Then I heard the first voice, Iggy's voice, say "I know I heard someone Nudge, It sounded like it came from inside the canyon wall."

"It might have look there are holes up the wall people might be living in their and the only way in is some kind of secret entrance, but I can't pick up any thoughts so they

might be mutants."

"Is that the flock?" asked Shadow as quietly as possible. I nodded.

Then I heard Fang's voice say "Well can you guys make a bomb and blow a hole in the wall?"

Fang's Pov

"Well can you guys make a bomb and blow a hole in the wall?" I asked.

"Okay." Gazzy replied unenthusiastically. Right after he said that a pitch block portal seemed to appear out of the rock. Out of the portal stepped to good looking people,

but they looked like polar opposites. The boy had jet black hair that seemed to void of any light. He was pale and about six feet. The unsettling thing was his eyes. His iris

was jet black, but his pupil were as white as a winter wonder land. The girl was gorgeous. She had golden hair and golden eyes. She had tan skin and was about six foot

as well. There was an unsettling familiarity about her though.

"You know its not nice to blow up some ones home." said golden girl angrily. Dark boy sent her a look that said cool it and she calmed down.

"Hello who are you, and you have just asked if someone was home" he said with a nice tone, but his eyes showed small traces of anger that seemed to be magnified

with his creepy iris and pupil.

"I'm Nick and-" I was cut off by gold girl who said

"You are a terrible liar. What is your real name?"

"Fine. My real name is Fang, and this is Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel." I said pointing at each of them.

"I'm Shadow and this is Star." said dark boy, I mean Shadow.

"Your clearly mutant judging from the fact that you are not running in terror at the sight of us." said Star.

"Your right." said Nudge. I sent a thought asking Angel to probe their minds, but she mentally replied they had powerful mind blocks. Also she said every one agrees with

me she does look familiar.

"Have we met before?" asked Gazzy.

"You look really familiar." Iggy finished. Star just shrugged then said

"I have never seen you people a day before in my life."

"Can we see your house?" asked Nudge.

"Sure" replied Shadow. Then made that weird portal. Star sent him a glare and he mouthed something that was three syllables and her glare disappeared. What's her

problem I thought. Shadow walked through the darkness followed by Star than by us.
