  NONAME and HotHead met up later in Terra's Grove. Their friend, Crystal, was with them. Lydia and Brittany were busy kicking Selena out of Lydia's house. NONAME and HotHead turned around to find a camera-man, a lady holding a long microphone, and a man sitting in a director's chair.

"And that's a wrap, folks! You girls did great!" said the director.

"Cool! We're in a movie!" HotHead exclaimed.

"OMG! Not cool! They were filming us!" Crystal was nervous. She hated being filmed when she didn't know that someone was filming her.

"Well, yeah. That guy's been there for a while. You're telling me you didn't see him?" NONAME asked.

"NO!" the other two said in unison.

"The only thing I can't figure out, though, is how you girls managed those "powers." I didn't see any props or---!"

He froze in mid-sentence. Literally froze. Crystal had shot a bolt of ice at him.

"Um, Crystal, I know that they were a little random, but don't you think that was a little... unnecessary?" HotHead asked.

"OMG! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to do that!" Crystal exclaimed. "I was just so nervous!"

"Yeah, Crystal, don't take it out on him," NONAME criticized. Crystal started sobbing.

"Nice, NONAME. That just made her feel worse!" HotHead accused.

"Well, you're not exactly helping, either!" NONAME argued. Crystal was really bawling now.

A few minutes later, a girl with short, curly, black hair, tan skin, blues jeans, tennis shoes, a neon green athletic t-shirt, wings and a squirrel tail flew along and landed in the grove. She walked over to where all the commotion was.

"Um, guys?" she asked and pointed at the frozen movie director. Crystal was curled up in a ball, head in her knees, and was crying. "Did I miss something?"

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Don't worry, Kevin. I'll explain everything to you," NONAME had arrived at the girl's landing point and walked off with her so they could talk. Meanwhile, HotHead walked over to Crystal.

"You know, sometimes you're lucky that I'm your opposite," HotHead announced.

"You're not helping!" Crystal let out a wail and went back to sobbing. With a blast from her hand, HotHead's fire soon melted through the ice to free the director.

"Oh look, he's back to normal!" NONAME and Kevin were back.

"Whoa!!! so you girls are for real!" he exclaimed. Suddenly his shoulders were grabbed by a pair of lizard hands and he was lifted four inches into the air. NONAME's eyes turned completely black.

"No, no, you were right the first time," she said in a mesmerizing tone. "This is just a movie, remember? It's all props, smoke and mirrors, and other show biz magic....."

And then everything went black.
