Dylan followed at a respectful distance, keeping an eye out for anything the girls may have missed. All the while he mulled over his arrival; the late tour of the school he decided to do on his own had led him right to these two. And now he discovers he might not only be gifted with powers, but he could be alien as well. It all caught up to him, and he couldn't help but chuckle as he thought about how he was going to fair over the next few days.

The small band of heroes arrived at an old warehouse. Turning around to face the rest of the group, Aspect said, "Welcome! to the (not-so-secret) hideout of me, Aspect, and my team!"

"Your team?" Element uttered silently. Then she walked in, and gaped at how huge the space was.

"Yeah, I kinda got my powers at the same time as five other girls," Aspect explains, collapsing onto a long, brick-red couch. "Mind if take my mask off? It might help the investigation if you guys actually know who I really am."

Element nodded, and went to read her study book in the corner.

Aspect peeled off her mask, sighing in relief as she fanned the area around her eyes. That mask was just plain uncomfortable, sometimes.

Turning back the group, mask still in hand, she said, "By the way, my real name is Avery. Please, feel free to call me either that or Aspect, though."

Dylan appeared to Avery's right, "Nice place. Kinda dark in here. Keeps things homely."

He shadow-formed a set of stairs leading to one of the higher windows, then walked up and sat on the top step. He looked back down at them, "Who are the others?"

Avery smiled, remembering her team. "Well, there's my sister Tempus, she can freeze time; then there are my friends: Velocity, who has superspeed and looks up to the Flash as her 'mentor;' Obsidian, with super strength; Psyonic, with mindreading; and Zephyr, with flight."

(All girls, btw. And if you want their real names, Avery would never tell anyone that. ;D)

"Damn, that's one hell of a team," Dylan breathed, "All I had was a crazy father I barely remember and an ambitious murderer for a brother." He didn't mention the memory that Element had surfaced. The time was not quite right.

"Oh. I'm so sorry," Avery said, turning her attention back to Dylan. "That must've been horrible."

( I'm sorry guys this is gonna be long! Its how the flame was formed! )

Element was to engrossed in what she was reading to to hear what everyone else was saying. The entire passage was in Slovak, but she translated easily.

Thousands of years ago, the royals in Callbrina ( now a fallen kingdom ) were facing hard times. The kingdom was failing, and they all knew. So, the royals decided they needed an elite force of highly trained protectors to keep them safe. Thus, the flame was born. They were the strongest fighters in the world, and had knowledge in all aspects of all magic. Almost nothing was hidden from their minds. The people looked up to them, more then they looked up to the royals. One Flame, Wolfred, was VERY happy with that fact, and he bathed in it. On a sad day in the kingdom, ( one of the queen's babies had died of sickness ) Wolfred was traveling through a dark cavern in search of potion ingredients. He got lost, and stumbled upon a small, glowing stone. The sun stone, one of the most impotent of the universe stones. When he figured out what it was, he devised a plan. If he could find all the universe stones, ( which there were 8 ) he could take over Callibra, and even the world. He gathered a few of his most loyal servants, and told them his plan. But, before he could follow through with his plan, one of the servants betrayed him and told the King. Infuriated, the king confronted Wolfred and the fought. Wolfred had a powerful advantage, being a member of The Flame, but when the few Flame that were still loyal came to help, Wolfred was defeated. Just before Wolfred was killed, he cried out his last words. "I will burn the son and it's brothers!". The Flame members that were loyal to him have separated, so when The Flame died out for good, they lived. They started their own NEW Flame, with Wolfred's great great great ( Don't know how many greats ) grandson, ( The guy who's name starts with X. I can't remember it sorry! ) . Now, since the conquest to conquer the world was ruined, their new conquest is to conquer the whole Universe. They have quietly been rising, snuffing out as many old Flame warriors as possible, hoping one day, they would finally gain victory.

Element jumped to her feet, and told her friends of what she'd just discovered.

Dylan jumped down, "Did it say anything about Xelnarin's sons?"

Element shook her head. "No they didn't. But this book is old. If I found some new ones, I bet it would tell me in there."

Dylan shrugged, "Anyone want to go raid a library?" He gave a smirk, "Not the most entertaining job, but it'll give us something to do."

Element smiled. "Lets go!" she called, and ran out the door with Dylan.

Avery shook her head as Element and Dylan ran out. She'd have to put her suit back on to leave, and she seriously didn't want to do that. Sighing, she did so, anyway, and followed them out the door.

Dylan immeadietly cloaked himself upon leaving, with Avery a bit behind. He thought to himself about when he could tell Element that he might be a part of the murderous family of the Flame.

What if she already suspects? He thought, My interest in his sons couldn't have gone unnoticed.

He decided to take his chances, and ran alongside Element, whispering, "Just a bit of a warning: I'm getting a sinking feeling you won't like what we find."

Suddenly remembering something, Avery smirked and walked around to the back of the building. She pulled out her keys and unlocked a shining, silver Mustang. Hopping into the driver's seat, she was greeted by the voice of an Australian male: "'Ello, Avery. What can I 'alp you with today?"

"Oh, not much, Oscar. I just wanna pick up the young man and woman that are around the front," Avery said.

"A'right, then. Let's be off."

Avery drove back around to the front of the building, stopping just in front of the other two supers. Rolling the window down, she asked, "Want a lift?"

Dylan's shock was only concealed by his cloak. A college student with a shiny mustang, a superhero, a tracker. Was there any role Avery couldn't fill?

He composed himself, dropped his cloak, and still couldn't contain his awe, "I think I'm in love," he breathed.

(I've got to disappear for a few days…) :(

Element looked at Dylan, confused, but then she smirked at Avery. "I think I'll make it." she said, and then she leapt into the air, zooming towards the nearest library.

"Oh, you like Oscar?" Avery asked.

"'Ello," said the car.
