"Ahhhhh!" Yelled Kate. "Save me!" "I'm coming!" Said Theo.

You probably are wondering, ' Who's Kate? Who's Theo?' Well, let me start at the beginning for you.

A long time ago there were two great heroes, Slinky and Laughing Matter. They journeyed to places of crime and disgust to bring justice to evil and even gave some laughs along the way. However, this is no laughing matter (no pun intended). When the two heroines hung up their identities, they both married and had a kid each. They never forgot the times when they saved the community and even the world countless times. But, now it was their new duty to raise a family each and succeed in the rest of life. Slinky's daughter was named Katherine and Laughing Matter's son was named Theodore. What the two legends didn't know was that their children were following in their footsteps. They found Slinky's secret chest of memories and Matter's private tack board of newspaper clippings and knew what they had to do. The world since the time of the old heroes has become once more filled with violence. Even as the aged heroes try their best the neighborhood has grown stronger since their time. It was the destiny of Kate and Theo to stop the violence and forever keep the world clean of crime. Now that I've told you the back story, I will stop blabbering and start the real story!

*Ding Dong*

 "Hey, Theo!" Kate said. 

Theo came and opened the door and said "Hi."

"I came to show you something." Said Kate. 

Theo responded " Let's go upstairs and check it out in my room." 

They scrambled up to Theo's room and Kate proceeded to open a chest. 

"Look, my dad was Slinky, the hero of the community. He even saved the world once!" Kate pronounced. 

"Oh wow! That's amazing! Look there's laughing matter, Slinky's partner." Theo said surprised. 

"Hmm. I wonder where Matter is now?" Kate thought out loud. 

Then Kate looked at her watch and said "Aw man! I gotta go. It's time for work! See ya later Theo!" 

Kate ran out of the house and got in her car to drive away. Later that evening Theo was grabbing some things from his dad's room and when his dad left the room he accidentally bumped a drawer and it popped out a little. Making sure his dad wasn't coming back, Theo pulled out the drawer, which was very big, and out came a tack board of clippings of laughing matter. As Theo was looking at the clippings he noticed some cloth in the very back corner of the drawer. He yanked it out and it unfolded into Laughing Matter's costume. In shock, he took the board and costume to his room, pushed the drawer back in, and quickly called Kate. 

*Ring Ring* *Ring Ring* 

"Hello," Kate said puzzled. 

"Kate, get here fast I need to show you something important." Said Theo breaking into a small sweat. 

"Ok, Ok, I'm coming Theo!" Kate said while getting ready. 

When Kate arrived, Theo was already opening the door when Kate pulled into the driveway. He ushered Kate inside quickly and into his room. After they were sure that they were alone, he pulled out the tack board and costume. 

"Whoa! No way!" Kate said astonished. 

"Yup. Our dads were Slinky and Laughing Matter, the superheroes." Theo said hoping to give himself some reassurance. 

"Oh, that's why our dads are always with each other and act like they are old friends." Said Kate in realization. 

"But, now that we know, what should we do?" Theo said most seriously. 

"We must do as they did, continue what they've done, and be heroes just like they were." Theo said.

As he finished his sentence the door started to open into their room.
