"Just keep drinking, honey," Mum muttered.
Then the phone started to ring- I, being the lazy person I am, ignored it, and carried on eating, also ignoring Will's amused stare at how fast one girl could eat.
"Erm Josie, it's the other one," Dad announced dramatically.
After a quick conversation, through which Will, Layla and I all exchanged amused glances at this regular routine, Dad turned around theatrically.
"There's trouble down town, we've got to go," Dad said.
"But I wanted to see Will and Rosie off to the bus! I remember on his first day of school, Will wouldn't let go of my leg-" Mum started reminiscing to Layla, but got cut off by Will telling her that she should go.
When they had gone down their poles to the Secret Sanctum, I snorted.
"What?" Will asked, smiling at my amusement.
"You're such a sissy," I said simply before continuing my breakfast, smirking in satisfaction as I watched the smile fall off his face.
After I had finished up, we all turned our attention to the TV, where Mum and Dad were being broadcasted over the news.
As she flew, Mum launched Dad into the giant robot thing threatening the city and he used his super strength to take it down. We watched, my eyebrows raised, as Dad plucked his ritual souvenir from the robot, taking an eye or something.
"Wow... they are good," Will breathed before switching the TV off.
The three of us walked towards the bus stop, me basically listening to Layla and Will go on about powers and saving the world, things like that... oh and the environment, of course!
Standing at the bus stop, I thought of my powers. Neither of them I had fully mastered, but at least I knew I had them. I had control over water, and I could teleport. Teleporting could be useful in all situations, water... only some. Then I thought of Layla, who although needed to fully master her powers too, had the potential to control all plant life. Then I thought of Will... He hadn't discovered any power yet, not even one. As a Third Generation Hero, he would most likely have two like me, but yeah... at the minute he was struggling to find any.
Just then, a big yellow school bus pulled up at the stop, and the doors swished open.
Will got on first to do the talking, Layla next, and me last.
"Er is this the bus to Sky High?" asked Will, looking down it nervously.
I heard the doors behind me swish shut quickly, almost trapping me in, and then the bus driver whisper-yelled at Will.
"Quiet down! Do you want every super villain in the village to know we're here?!"
"Erm, no, sir," Will stammered, put off by the sudden outburst.
The driver narrowed his eyes, "What's your name, son?"
"Will Stronghold. This is my sister, Rosie, and my friend-"
"Layla," she introduced herself with a smile, whereas I just nodded, wanting to get a gage on everyone before actually opening up to people.
The driver went quiet... here we go...
"Will and Rosie Stronghold? Children of the Commander and Jetstream?" he asked, excited.
Will and I both nodded, kind of bored of the same routine.
The bus driver, launched himself off his seat, and grabbed Will by the shoulders, addressing everyone on the bus, "Everyone! This is Will and Rosie Stronghold, children of the Commander and Jetstream!" and pulling me towards Will in the brief moment that I was introduced.
