Sky High Page #6

Synopsis: It all begins when young Will Stronghold, the son of the two famous superheroes: Steve and Josie, A.K.A. the incredibly strong, seemingly invulnerable Commander and and the high-speed flying Jetstream. However, Will does not actually know if he has any powers of his own, and has not told his parents this. He and his best friend, Layla are facing their first day of a secret school in the clouds like none on earth: Sky High, the first and only high school for kids with super-human powers going through crime-fighting puberty. But with no apparent superpowers of his own, however, Will seems destined to grow up a mere sidekick. But as he discovers his true strengths, he'll also learn that it takes loyalty and teamwork to truly become a hero!

And your lucky numbers are...

...4, 16, 5 and 49.

I gotta go.

See you around, hippie.

- You really didn't have to walk me home.

I did if I wanted to spend any time alone with you.

And, just so you know,

I don't usually hang out all night

with my mom and dad.

Your parents are great, Will.

I'm so glad they're coming to homecoming.

Now, if I could only find someone to go with.

You don't have a date for homecoming?

Well, I've gotten a few offers, but...

...I turned them down.

I'm just waiting for the right guy.

Oh.

You, Will.

Me?

Oh, hi, Daddy.

Bye, Will.

Bye.

You're not that boy with the six arms, are you?

No, sir. Just two.

- Well, keep them to yourself.

- Yes, sir.

- Good night, sir.

Yes! Whoo!

Oh, man! OK.

Here you go.

Oh!

Homecoming. The greatest collection

of superteens ever gathered

to dance under one roof, and then

we shall have our revenge!

There's only one thing we're missing!

King Kamehamayhem's surfboard?

Darn this joystick!

Ah! Right, right - The Pacifier.

Hey, smooth move on the joystick.

Ahhh!

Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!

Layla!

You're not gonna believe what

happened to me last night.

Oh. I love these.

"Your loyalties are clear when it comes to friends."

Oh, God. Oh.

Oh, I totally spaced. Uh...

I'm sorry. I know you must want to kill me.

Actually, just the opposite.

I have something to tell you.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, but you first.

OK. OK. It's about homecoming.

Really? Me too.

I'm going with Gwen Grayson.

Can you believe it?

Me, a freshman, going with

the most amazing girl at Sky High.

- That's awesome!

- I know.

Morning!

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.

What's your homecoming news?

I'm going too.

Really. Who with?

Who with?

Yeah, who asked you?

Oh, who asked me.

Warren Peace.

Warren Peace? You can't be serious.

Layla, the guy's a psycho.

And he's my biggest enemy!

How could you go with him?

When did you even start hanging out?

Last night, 8:
00, the Paper Lantern.

Hi, Warren.

Did I do or say anything last night

to make you think this is okay?

Funny. You're never gonna believe what happened.

I was about to ask Will to homecoming when,

wouldn't you know it, I told

him I was going with you instead.

I don't remember that being the plan.

Hey Layla. You did the history homework?

- What are you doin'?

- It's called sitting.

- No one sits here but me.

- Mm-hmm.

What'd you get for number 4?

I wasn't sure if Tigerman was

A) Bitten by a radioactive tiger, or

B) Bitten by a regular tiger,

then exposed to radiation.

Hey. Are we eating at Warren's table now?

- I feel extremely dangerous.

- Whoa. Whoa.

- Is this guy bothering you, Magenta?

- Try the other way around.

Does anyone else need a date for homecoming?

Warren, you are crazy!

Please, I promise. I'll make

this as painless as possible.

So you're not doin' this just

'cause you like me or anything.

- You're doin' it to get to Stronghold.

- Yeah.

Then I'm in.

But I'm not renting a tux.

Hey, if Warren's not here, is

this still the tough-guy table?

Yeah, homecoming's stupid.

- So? I think I'll go.

- Yeah, me too.

- What's up, guys?

- What up, dude?

- Hey.

- What's going on?

- Nothin'.

- Let's go, Stronghold.

Only two days till your Mad Science midterm.

And I am not gonna rest until you

can build a ray gun blindfolded.

Hey there, cutie. I was

just thinking about you.

I cannot wait until homecoming.

I'm so excited. I finally...

- Ow!

- Never call me cutie.

And is this the trigger?

No, that's the fusion device.

OK. Is...? What's this?

That's my phone.

Well. Super-strong and psychic.

- Hello?

Wait. Penny, I can't understand you

when you're all talking at once.

OK, better.

What? Oh, no.

- OK, hold on. Let me call you back.

- Hurry!

What's up?

There's a problem with the

homecoming decorations.

Penny forgot to order the fog machine,

so I might have to build one myself.

- Think the committee could stop by?

- Ooh, I don't know because,

uh, my parents are on a distress call,

and they won't be home till late...and

- I'm really not supposed to have anyone here.

- Hey it's cool.

I was just hoping we could spend

a little more time together, but...

...I guess I'll just see you at school?

Good night, Will.

Uh, I...If it's...

Um, if it's only a few people.

Super.

Brian! You're getting cheese all over the walls!

Larry, do you have to be

a two-ton rock right now?

- Please, just power down.

Hey.

Guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, the floor!

Gwen! You said this was supposed

to be homecoming committee.

This is the homecoming committee.

OK, OK, so a few extra people showed up.

But, Will, you're popular!

That's what happens!

Gwen, every kid in Hero class is here.

How am I gonna get this place cleaned up in time?

Here, come with me.

OK. So, what's on your mind?

- My friends.

- What about 'em? They're all here.

Oh. You mean the sidekicks.

I think I'm just gonna call Zach and Layla,

tell 'em to come over here because...

Will, you are such a nice guy.

But, honestly, do you think they'd have fun?

With this crowd? I mean, don't you

think they'd feel a little awkward?

- No. I think they'd be okay.

- Trust me.

They'd be miserable.

- Whoa!

- Hey!

Sorry!

Just lookin' for a bucket!

I wish there was somewhere

we could go to be alone.

Um...

Wow. This is incredible.

Yep. When you spend your whole life

kicking butt and taking names,

I guess you make a lot of memories.

Well, maybe we should make a few of our own.

What's she doing here?

Isn't it past her bedtime?

Hey, Will? Could you go get me

a diet caffeine-free orange soda?

Anything for you.

- Who invited a sidekick?

- Yeah, what's she doing here?

Leaving.

Where's Will?

Honestly? Avoiding you.

Look, Will knows you have a crush on him.

- He does?

- Everyone does.

Will's just too nice a guy to

tell you he's not interested.

Not that you can take a hint.

I mean, hello?

He's going to homecoming with me.

He threw a party and didn't invite you.

You're just embarrassing him.

You're just embarrassing yourself.

OK. I understand.

And, um, when you see Will again,

can you tell him that I never

want to talk to him again?

- I'll give him the message.

- Layla.

Layla! Layla! Layla!

Layla!

Have fun with Gwen.

You two deserve each other.

- Gwen.

- Oh, thanks, Will.

- What did you say to Layla?

- Nothing.

I mean, I just told her the truth.

You're a hero, she's a sidekick.

She was holding you back.

What?

Why would you do that? Layla's been

my best friend since first grade.

You've got new friends now, and I

think that you need to figure out

whether you want to hang with

us or with those losers.

- Come on. Let's go.

- No, forget it.

I'm not going anywhere with you,

not now or not to homecoming.

Might as well just find yourself a new date, Gwen.

You're dumping me?

Whoa-whoa-whoa,

let's get something straight, OK?

You do not dump me!

Not the night before the dance!

Sorry, Gwen. I, uh, just did.

You're dumped!
