Previously from Chapter four:
"I would love it if you showed me around England. How does tomorrow night, around seven sounds?" Lea said

Algernon quickly snapped out of his daydream. "That sounds great. I'll see you tomorrow." He said, smiling as she smiled back

"Great! I'll see then. Have a great night, you two." Lea said, smiling before giving Algernon her phone number as she walked towards the door to get to her boat.

Back at Zoey's house, Nana, Coco, and Zoey continued fighting off Somnabula' s goons as Rodney kept watching the flashes of violet, fuchsia, and blue lights move around in the backyard. Once the lights had stopped flying and moving around, Rodney noticed a familiar figure as it lifted the goons that were now tied up with ease, surprising and amazing him at the same time.

"Wow. For that stranger who's about the same height as me, sure is strong and fast. And can fly?" He replied while raising a serious eyebrow.

Once Zoey had the tied up goons in her arms, she made one of her gauntlets bigger, flew in the air and punched the goons off into the night sky. Afterwards she clapped her hands up and down in accomplishment; As she landed back on the ground and de transformed from her battle suit and hugged her mother, aunt, and grandmother before going back into the house; not realizing that Rodney was watching them the whole time!

Rodney quickly bent down from his window and gasped in surprise. "Oh my gosh. Those flashes of colors they were our neighbors!" He said in complete shock.

(And now for Chapter five!)

"I don't believe it. I can't believe it! Our new neighbors can fly? Let alone have other powers? And who were those bad guys out there?" He said to himself before pacing around his room while freaking out a little before taking a deep breath.

Once Rodney managed to calm down a little, he sat down on his bed and went into deep thought until something had came to him. "No wonder they were acting a little weird the other day and along with yesterday! That would explain something about a realm and how she ran faster than all of us, and how she's able to come back from anywhere, quickly. I wonder how come she didn't tell me or let alone Lauryn?" He said to himself before looking out his window one last time and realized that Zoey had closed her blinds and that her lights were off.

"Huh. I guess she must've went to bed by now. No worries, I'm sure I've must've had too much sugar before going to bed and must be dreaming." He said to himself before climbing into his bed and closing and fell asleep.

The next day, in math class, Rodney, Robin, Lauryn, and Zoey were all working on their math worksheets. While they were all working, Rodney couldn't help but think about what he saw last night which left Robin, Lauryn, and Zoey all confused and concerned all at once.

"You okay there, mate?" Robin asked, as Rodney quickly snapped out of his thoughts.

"Huh? Oh, uh. Yeah, I'm okay." Rodney replied nervously

Lauryn raised an eyebrow. "You sure? Because you seem distracted about something." She asked, as Zoey nodded

Just when Rodney was about to speak, Brooke had walked into the classroom with her butlers, which got the whole class' attention as they faced towards her. "Everyone, yours truly is throwing a Halloween costume party and you're all invited!" She said, in excitement as the class cheered in excitement.

"Yoo-hoo! New girl, we have some business to discuss." Brooke called out, as Zoey rolled her eyes and got up from her seat and followed Brooke outside of the classroom.
