Chapter 1

                             "Stated your name, date and reason here," a robot in the front of the museum asked me.

                             "Sunshine Brighty, March 23 2516, and I am here for a class trip."

                             "Thank you please enjoy your stay at the National Museum of History." 

                             "Finally you are done Sunny! Come on I have found where we can find stuff for are research project," Luna Moonstone, my partner and best friend, and I are doing a project on video games. All we know is it was banned in 2306 bye the President, who claimed it was bad for the players. When we got to the section there was so much information, enough to finish the project today. Then a girl got in my way and push me with her shoulder.

                             "Hey watch it! The hallway is big enough for 7 people to walk you know!" the girl had an apple and a pencil. She had long curly black hair, with gemstone green eyes. She was sort of pretty. There was another girl, with a lot of paper with notes. She had not as long light brown hair, with brown eyes and glasses.

                             "I'm so sorry about my friend," she's really nice unlike her friend. The girl with the glasses took the other girls apple away and throw it away. "Any why my name is Cassidy Heartwood, and this one is Amber Ashburn she can be very rude," Cassidy said, as she was whacking Amber in the head.

                             "Really Cassidy that hurt," Amber complained. Then she started to look at this weird box thing. On the side it said Pac-Man. it had a screen. I went closer to it with Amber. Then it flashed rapidly. "Hey it flashed guys. Why does it work? This is from the 1980's and stopped appearing in the 2000's when mobile devices were invented."

                              "And how do you know this ," I asked her. She looks like one of those people how are lazy and don't do work, so they copy of others. And who gets in trouble. A lot. She return a smug smile.

                              "My uncle steals these thing to to give a professor these machines. He never went to jail yet. And this professor pays him a lot of money and the professor teaches him about them. That's why his cover is a history teacher at the best school in the US. And the unit he knows best is video games. OK be right back," Amber started running in the hall.

                              "Where is she going?" Luna asked Cassidy. Cassidy looked as if she has been through this before and that it takes forever.

                              "Her uncle taught her how to hack, so she is going to erase the video on the camera so they won't know what she said and her uncle isn't in jail. That's why she always carry a dart gun that put people to sleep with her ever since her uncle gave it to her on her 6th birthday." Luna and I look and Cassidy in horror. So Amber was helping a criminal! And Cassidy looked OK with it! Well to be fair she is helping her family, but still! "How does she get the gun past the security? And why are you friends with a person who helps a criminal?!" Luna asked.

                              "Her uncle taught her a trick to sneak it past them and she is a criminal because she isn't old enough for firearms and for hacking security. And her uncle is really nice. He isn't the type of guy who steals for fun, he steals for a professor on this research that can  change the world. Her whole family stole something from a government facility. Well except for her."     

                              "Aren't you afraid of her and her family?" I asked curious.

                              "No they are nice people and they work for a secret association of scientists and thiefs. They steal these things because owning video games are only aloud to the government and museums." Cassidy explained. All of a sudden Amber came.

                              "OK all the digital fingerprint is gone and I was on the phone with Professor Griffin, he says he says he wants this so I turned off the cameras and alarms.Can you guys help me?"

                              "NO!!!!!!!" we three said in unison. I don't want to go to jail thank you very much!

                              "Come on the professor is rich and smart. He can bail us out and wipe it of our records if we get caught." Amber was reaching for the on video game box and the next thing we know, the four of use is sucked in a strange, colorful vortex.
