Author's Note: Here is a new story for you all. It is going to be a multiple chapter story, although how many chapters is yet to be decided. I'm quite excited about it; it has a good plot so I hope everyone enjoys the first chapter. The story takes place at the end of Season 1, but there is no pregnancy, Ryan is still living in Newport and Seth never sailed off to places unknown.
I know every author will plea for reviews, and I will add my name to the list. I do appreciate each and every one of them, and they will help me to know if it is worth continuing the story. Please be critical and I am open to suggestions.
The title of the story is taken from the '3 Doors Down' song 'Kryptonite'.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Prologue- - -
The midday desert sun beat down on the black range rover.
Marissa tipped the final remains of her bottle of arrowhead into her dry mouth.
Ryan tried his cell phone again, cursing when it flashed at him, informing him of the empty battery.
The only sound that could be heard in the quiet vehicle was the sound of Summer's soft sobs from the back seat as she clung to Seth's hand.
"Do you think they'll come?" Marissa asked Ryan with caution, not sure if she wanted to know the answer.
Ryan turned in his seat to face her, sweat covering his expressionless face. "I don't know."
Marissa turned her head away from him, resting it against the window, silent tears falling down her face.
The silence of the car was then disturbed as Summer's sobs turned into screams.
"It's Seth! He's having a seizure!"
