Sky High
In a world full of superheroes,
there are two that stand above the rest:
The Commander and Jetstream.
His super-strength makes him pretty much indestructible.
She has the power of supersonic flight
along with a total mastery of unarmed combat.
By day, they live as Steve and Josie Stronghold,
the top real estate agents in the metropolis of Maxville.
But whenever duty calls, they are the Commander and Jetstream.
Me, I have my own names for them:
Mom and Dad - that's me in the middle.
You look at them and see the defenders of the world.
All I see is my dad wearing tights.
Don't get me wrong.
It can be cool to have superhero parents,
like when Mom picks up awesome
takeout on her way home from work.
On the other hand, living up to the family name
means that I'm supposed
to save the world someday.
Here we go.
I just have one small problem.
Come on.
Come on.
Exactly what we want to hear.
- Well, that was Bert Timmerman
and he is buying the colonial on Pine Terrace.
Above asking.
No contingencies.
Honey, I know that selling
real estate is just our cover,
but I think we're in line to
win that salestrip to Hawaii.
We haven't been to Hawaii since
King Kamehamayhem set off that volcano.
Think of it, Josie: You, me on the beach,
no exploding volcanoes.
Mmm, I can feel the sand in my toes already.
Will is gonna be down any minute.
Hey, it's his first day of school, where is he?
Will?
Will?
Oh! Ah!
Come on, buddy let's get moving!
- Two hundred!
Oh, hey, Dad. Just trying to
get a few sets in before school.
Low weights, high rep, huh?
Good thinking, don't want to bulk up.
Nah, going more for definition.
Big day, huh?
Will?
I just want you to know how proud I am
that you'll be attending my alma mater
and someday following me
into the family business.
Real estate?
Right.
Real estate.
On a more serious note, son,
I know that every kid thinks his dad's invincible
and I nearly am, but who knows?
Maybe the next time I punch
a meteor hurtling toward Earth,
I'll be the one who shatters into a million pieces.
I - I guess all I'm trying to say here, Will,
is it's nice to know that whatever happens to me,
you'll still be around to save the world.
- Looking forward to it.
- We all are.
- Oh! Hey!
- Oof!
- Good morning, Mrs. Stronghold.
- Mornin'.
I noticed you had recyclables in the trash.
I took the liberty of moving them for you.
Thank you, Layla, you hungry?
I've got plenty of eggs, bacon.
No, thanks. You know how my mom
can communicate with animals?
Apparently, they don't like being eaten.
- How about some juice?
- Great.
He's on his way.
Oh, hi, Layla.
- Good morning, Commander.
- Commander, huh?
Oh. Thanks, Layla.
I can't believe you and Will are starting high school.
Seems like yesterday you two were
swimming naked in the kiddie pool.
- Mom! Hi, Layla.
- Thank you.
Josie, it's...the other one.
- Go.
I see.
Thank you, Mayor.
There's trouble downtown.
Big trouble. Downtown.
Oh, shoot, and I really wanted
to see Will off to the bus.
I remember his first day of preschool.
He wouldn't let go of my leg.
- Mom!
- Oh.
Josie.
Oh, Will, uh, a reminder.
A lot of the kids at Sky High
will only have one superhero parent, not two,
so take it easy on them, huh?
No showing off.
Aw, Dad. Not to worry, I'll keep it low-key.
Mrs. Rivera? - Josie Stronghold.
I'm gonna need to reschedule that open house.
Great.
- Steve!
- Gotta go!
...reports of a situation downtown.
Let's check with a picture from News Chopper 5.
Evil has struck our morning commute.
Here's a hint.
If you're traveling eastbound on the 115,
you might think about alternate routes.
Hang on. This just in.
The Commander and Jetstream are on their way.
Are you sure he'll be OK?
What if he forgets his lunch?
Josie, Josie, you've got to stop babying the boy.
You're right, you're right.
Left. Left!
- Circle back around!
- I'm on it.
- Release!
- Launch!
Oh! And the robot goes down!
He's plucking out a souvenir from another successful battle.
What a team!
The Commander and Jetstream.
How does it feel to save the world yet again?
- What would we do without them?
- They are good.
Now, I know it's just our first day but,
I already can't wait to graduate and start saving mankind.
And womankind.
And animalkind.
- And the rain forest.
- Of course.
- Hello, kids.
- Hi, Mrs. Kibbitch.
I just feel really good about this year.
Yeah. It should be great.
- Morning!
- Mornin'.
Is this the bus to Sky High?
Shh! What are you, crazy?
I guess you want every supervillain
in the neighborhood to know we're here?
No, no. Sorry.
What's your name, freshman?
- Um, Will Stronghold.
The son of the Commander and Jetstream?
Everyone! It's Will Stronghold!
Son of the Commander and Jetstream!
I'm Ron Wilson, Sky High bus driver.
If I can make your journey more
comfortable, let me know. You two! Up!
The seat behind Ron Wilson
belongs to Will Stronghold.
It would be an honor.
It's fine.
You don't have to.
No, I want to.
You're third generation, man.
Magenta, get up.
- Why? He only needs one seat.
- So he can sit with his girlfriend.
Layla? No, she's just my friend.
Yeah, totally.
He's like my brother.
Oh, well, in that case, hi - I'm Larry.
Yo, Will.
Hey, how you doin'? Hey, Layla.
How you doin'?
How was your summer?
To be honest, it was tough, man.
T-U-P-H.
I was seriously sweatin' it.
My dad going, "Zach, I...
powered up before I started shaving."
And here's me, dude, halfway through August,
and zip.
Oh, so you...You don't have your powers.
You think I'd even show up today if that happened?
No. No, no.
Woke up a few days ago
and...bam!
That's great.
So, what-what is it?
You have to wait and see like everybody else.
But it's awesome, man.
It's awesome!
Come on. It's not like you
ever powered up in front of us.
- Sorry!
Morning!
That's everyone.
Next stop, Sky High!
Where are we?
Hang on back there!
We're goin' off-road.
Here we go!
- Yee-hoo!
Pfff! Freshmen.
There she is.
Sky High.
antigravitational propulsion.
She is in constant motion as
a precaution against those
who otherwise might have nefarious plans,
her location supplied only to a
few highly qualified individuals
such as myself, Ron Wilson, bus driver.
Smooth and easy.
Whoa!
Sorry!
Word of advice.
Don't miss the bus, 'cause the bus waits for no one.
Except for you, Will Stronghold!
You ever running late, running
early, or you just want to talk...
...give me a call.
- Thanks, Ron.
Seriously.
- Yeah! Freeze-Girl!
Hello, freshmen, don't be shy
Welcome newbies to Sky High!
Juniors, seniors, all the rest
We're back to school - Sky is the best!
Ready, one, two, three.
Whoo! We're number one!
- Sky High! We're...
- I hate that cheer.
Speed, round 'em up, OK?
Hey, freshmen!
Your attention, please.
I'm Lash - Uh, this is Speed.
As representatives of the
Sky High welcoming committee...
