That night, Alex Rooney Goodman was fast asleep, peacefully resting next to his wife Anna. Little did he know that his slumber would be interrupted by a vivid and haunting nightmare. In his dream, he caught a glimpse of what the future held in store for him.

As Alex delved deeper into his dream, he found himself surrounded by his superhero friends. They stood united, ready to face a formidable adversary known as Zehaliah, the queen of hell, and her menacing army. The gravity of the situation sent shivers down Alex's spine as he realized the immense danger they were about to confront.

Within his dream, Alex received the first part of a prophetic message. It was as if the words of the prophets themselves echoed in his mind. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty, a mysterious woman with piercing white eyes appeared before him. Her expression was serious and determined as she imparted cryptic clues for him to decipher.

"Write down what you see," she commanded, her voice filled with urgency. "When you awaken, share this vision with your superhero friends."

With these words lingering in his mind, Alex suddenly woke up from his unsettling dream. The weight of what he had witnessed still hung heavy upon him as he turned to wake his wife Anna from her slumber.

Anna stirred as Alex gently shook her shoulder. "Anna, wake up," he whispered. She opened her eyes, "What is it honey?" she asked, seeing the worried expression on his face.

Alex recounted the details of his vivid dream to her. Anna listened intently, now fully awake with concern. When he finished speaking, she remained silent for a moment as she processed what he had told her.

"Do you think this dream means something? Could it have been a prophecy?" Anna asked. Alex nodded solemnly, "I think it does. The woman's words felt so purposeful."

Anna considered this. "Well, if that's the case, you should share this vision with your friends like she said. They'll need to know if this Zehaliah poses a real threat."

Alex agreed. "You're right. I will tell them tomorrow." He took a deep breath. "For now, I think we should try and get some more rest."

Anna squeezed his hand reassuringly. "It will all work out, one way or another. For now, try not to worry."

Alex smiled at his wife. "You always know how to calm me down. I love you." He laid back down and Anna nestled into his arms. Soon, the weight of the troubling dream lifted from Alex's mind and he drifted back to sleep, comforted by Anna's presence.

Morning came and Alex Rooney Goodman woke up to find his wife Anna in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for the family. As he entered the room, he saw his children Angelina, the older sister with long black hair, Jason, who bore a striking resemblance to Alex with his long black hair, Gwen with her flowing blonde locks, and Theo, the youngest child and only son, seated at the table.

"Good morning, everyone," Alex greeted them with a smile. "What's on the menu today?"

Anna turned around and replied, "I'm making pancakes and scrambled eggs. Your favorite."

Alex chuckled and took a seat next to Theo. "Sounds perfect. Thank you, Anna."

As they enjoyed their breakfast together, the breaking news suddenly appeared on the flat-screen TV mounted on the wall. The headline caught Alex's attention immediately. It was about his sister Zoe, who had recently gained superpowers and taken on the persona of Superial.

Intrigued by the news, Alex made up his mind. He decided to become Supervalon, a superhero with even greater powers than Superial. He knew he had to go to Aceville, where Zoe was wreaking havoc, and put an end to her destructive actions.

After bidding farewell to his family, Alex transformed into Supervalon and flew towards Aceville. The city was in chaos as Superial used her mind control abilities to manipulate innocent people into doing her bidding.

Supervalon knew that defeating his sister would not be an easy task. People believed that Superial was stronger and more powerful than him. However, he was determined to prove them wrong.

As the two siblings clashed in an epic battle, their powers collided in a display of immense energy and force. The fight was intense and seemed never-ending. Each of them pushed their abilities to the limit, unleashing devastating attacks upon each other.

Supervalon could feel his strength waning, but he refused to give up. He knew that he had to find a way to break through Superial's mind control and bring her back to her senses.

"Zoe, please! Snap out of it!" Supervalon shouted, his voice filled with desperation. "You're stronger than this!"

Superial, under the influence of the mind control, responded with a sinister laugh. "You underestimate me, Alex. I am the true power in this family."

The battle raged on, with Supervalon using every ounce of his strength and determination to overcome his sister's formidable powers. He tapped into his inner reserves and unleashed a final, devastating attack that shattered the mind control hold over Superial.

As the dust settled, Supervalon stood victorious. He had proven that he was more powerful and stronger than Superial. But instead of reveling in his triumph, he felt a deep sadness for what his sister had become.

Approaching Superial, who was now free from the mind control, Supervalon spoke softly, "Zoe, I'm sorry it had to come to this. But I had to stop you."

Tears welled up in Superial's eyes as she looked at her brother. "Thank you, Alex. I don't know what came over me."
