Hello again! Ok, so if you see (a) paragraph(s) in italics, that means a video is playing and that is what is happening in the video. I would put it into a scene switch, but I think it's easier to go back and forth between the characters and the video if I just did italics.

Ray just sat there quietly as he stared at the camera in his hands, tears returning to his eyes. Henry, Charlotte, and Jasper just looked around at each other, once again confused. They all landed their eyes on Schwoz who was looking at the ground but looked up when the teenagers looked at him.

Schwoz then sighed, "Ray…" he said.

Ray looked up at Schwoz, a tear rolling down his cheek. He looked at the three curious and confused teenagers and then sighed deeply before talking. "Drex used this camera a lot," he said, "he would video tape our little adventures and moments together. Mostly when we were younger, but we both got bored of it once I went into my twenties."

"So almost like a vlog?" Jasper asked.

Ray shrugged his shoulders in a yes-kind-of type of way, "Ya, almost like that." Ray said and Schwoz nodded his head in agreement.

"How many videos do you think are on there?" Henry asked.

Ray wiped his glossy eyes with his sleeve then thought for a second, "Not sure," he said then looked up at Schwoz, "I hope the camera isn't too old for us to watch the videos."

Schwoz crossed his arms and smiled, "easy-peasy!" He said and Ray smiled back.

The gang was back in the main part of the Man Cave and Jasper and Henry were back playing their game of Go Fish.

"Do you have a 1?" Jasper asked.

"Go fish," Henry said and Jasper picked up another card. "Do you have a 5?" Henry asked.

Jasper shook his head, "Go fish." Henry picked another card.

Charlotte looked at them from her spot at the computer, "Wow, you guys are terrible at this game." She said.

"Is it that obvious?" Jasper asked.

"Yes." She answered. "You guys have been playing for 5 minutes now, including another 5 minutes before we got distracted. So you guys have been playing for 10 minutes and you haven't got any matches yet, and you're still on your 1st game!"

Henry stared at the table and shook his head, "Ya we don't understand that either," he threw his cards on the table, "and this game is supposed to be easy." Jasper shook his head as well and seemed to agree with him.

Meanwhile, Ray was starting the video on the tv over the elevator. Everyone looked over when it started. The video started with a blond boy holding the camera towards himself. Drex.

Drex smiled and looked at the camera, "Here we go! Today is the day!" He said and flipped the camera around to show Schwoz's pair of hands holding a small briefcase holding a small tube in it. Ray's hands grabbed the tube out of the case and the camera lifted up to show their faces.

Ray inspected the tube filled with gumballs, "So just chew and blow?" He asked a half head of haired Schwoz.

Schwoz nodded, "Yes," he pointed to somewhere off screen, "Go over there." and he closed the case.

Ray turned, noticed the camera and winked then walked away to the spot.

The camera remained on Schwoz, "You excited?" Drex asked.

Schwoz turned to the camera and smiled, "Very!"

The camera turned to the left of Drex to reveal Carl Manchester, "You excited?" Drex asked.

Carl turned to him and smirked, "Yup!" he said.

"Fantastic!" Drex said and turned the camera towards Ray who was still walking towards his spot. "Alright ladies and gentlemen, this is test number 1!" He announced to who-knows-who, "Name: Ray Manchester, Gender: male, Age: 16," Ray got to his spot and turned around and the camera zoomed in on him as Drex continued, "Hair color: Brown and perfect, Nationality: unknown, uhh Religion: probably Catholic he looks Catholic, uhhh Relationship status: single, uhhhh oh Eye color: blue…uhhhh…." he thought.

Ray laughed and rolled his eyes, "Are you done?" he asked Drex.

"Uh yes…" Drex said as the camera zoomed back in. "Did you really have to go so far back?" He asked.

"Ya," Schwoz agreed and the camera turned to him, "I didn't mean stand that far back."

The camera turned back to Ray, "Ya but it's the 1st test, I wanted to stand back just in case this goes south and i'll be ok, but you guys won't be as affected by it."

Drex turned the camera back to Schwoz, "Could it explode?" He asked him.

Schwoz turned his head towards him, "It shouldn't but that's a good idea for him to do that."

"Is that why we're in an old warehouse?" Drex asked as he lifted the camera up to show the wall and ceiling of the warehouse then back to Schwoz.

Schwoz shrugged, "Ya that," he said, "But also to keep this secret so the public doesn't see."

"Hm." Drex said as he turned the camera back to Ray as Schwoz was giving him directions.

"Ok, just blow when you're ready?" Schwoz announced to Ray.

Ray chewed and nodded, "Ok!" He said. After a couple more chews he decided to blow. His body was immediately covered in red and blue light.

"Woah!" Drex exclaimed towards the lights.

All the lights then went away to reveal Ray in a blue, red, and yellow suit with a blue mask with a yellow streak on the top of it to cover his face. All three boys "woah-ed" excitedly.

"WOAH! Oh my gosh!" Drex yelled excitedly and he turned the camera on himself. He stroked his hand through his hair in amazement and he looked between Ray and the camera in shock, "Oh my gosh guys that was amazing!" He said to the camera and dramatically put his hand on his chest and acted as if he was in shock and out of breath, "Oh my gosh!" He said once again.

"Oh don't be so dramatic!" Ray said off camera.

Drex turned the camera around and Ray had now rejoined the group. Carl was right next to him checking out the suit. "What?" Drex asked, "I just thought that was really awesome! And I can't believe a suit can fit into a gumball!" He said and pointed the camera towards the gumball tube.

Ray smiled and chuckled.

"That's what I'm still wondering!" Charlotte said.

Jasper and Henry looked at her then returned their focus back to the video.

"It's tight but I really like it!" Ray said as he checked out the suit himself, "Thanks Schwoz!"

"Oh ya, nice job Schwoz!" Drex said and there was unidentifiable chatter between Carl, Drex, and Ray saying "good job" in different ways to Schwoz.

Schwoz held one hand up and one on his chest, "Oh thank you, thank you, it was nothing." He said between the unidentifiable talking.

"Wow, you really thanked Schwoz for his work, didm't you?" Mentioned Henry.

"Ya, back when I was noticed and thanked for my work." Schwoz said as he leaned on the secret door and watched the video.

"Shhhhh!" Ray shushed annoyingly and didn't even look back at them. They then all drew their attention back to the video.

The camera was turned back to Drex, "Well everyone, that was an amazing experience." He said.

"And really awesome!" Ray said as he came into view next to Drex, "The lights freaked me out for a moment, it felt like I was surrounded by a rainbow….minus a few colors."

Drex laughed then said, "But hey, at least your hair is still good!" He lifted the camera a little bit so Ray's hair could be shown.

"Ya," Ray said as he stroked his hand through his hair, "when is it not?!"

Drex laughed as he brought the camera back down to their faces, "Well, bye everyone!" he said and waved to the camera.

"Bye!" Ray said and also waved. They waved for a couple seconds, then Ray put his hand down and looked off-camera, "Hey, Schwoz, I really need to pee-" Then the video ended.

The gang just sat there as they thought over the video they just watched.

"So it is a vlog?!" Jasper said, "You guys literally spoke to the camera, that's what a vlog is."

Ray turned to them, "Ya I guess." He said.

"I gotta admit, that was pretty cool seeing you turn into Captain Man for the first time." Charlotte said and Henry and Jasper agreed.

Ray smiled, "Ya." then he thought for a second, "I know that was not the first video he made, why aren't these in order?" He asked Schwoz.

Schwoz shrugged, "I guess after not being watched for a long time the videos got mixed up."

"Hm." Ray said then turned back to the tv, "Another!" He said.

"I would groan but these are actually interesting to watch." Henry stated.

Ray pressed play on the camera and another video appeared also showing Drex holding the camera.

Drex seemed to be crouching in front of a table, and he kept looking between the camera and something to the right of the camera as he talked, "All right guys," he whispered, "Ray and Amanda are in the next room watching a movie, I'm gonna go talk to them." He stood up and switched the camera around as he walked from what looked like the kitchen into the tv/family room. He then revealed Ray and a red-headed girl sitting together watching a movie. "Hey guys!" Drex said.

Ray rolled his eyes, "What?" He asked.

Amanda giggled, "Hi Drex!" She said.

"Hello Amanda." Drex said, "So, how are you two doing? Enjoying the movie?" He asked as he moved the camera to the tv then back to the couple.

"Yes." Ray answered and lifted an eyebrow as he seemed confused as to what Drex was up to.

"That's good, that's good." Drex said. "Well I just wanted to say Amanda, that Ray probably thinks you're beautiful…but he probably thinks your mom is more beautiful!"

"That's it, come here!" Ray said and stood up as Amanda started laughing.

"Ah!" Drex squealed and started running as the camera shook like crazy facing the ground. All of a sudden another squeal was heard from Drex as the camera hit the ground and a couple seconds later, Ray and Drex fell face-down in front of the camera. Ray immediately put Drex in a light head-lock, and Drex couldn't stop laughing.

"I know you look adorable," Ray said seriously in a jokingly way, "But apologize right now."

Drex took a breath from laughing, "That doesn't make any sense as why I should apologize!"

"I know, but just do it!" Ray answered.

"Ok ok, I'm sorry!" Drex said and started laughing, who was then joined in by Ray.

Just then the camera was picked up and was faced towards Amanda who was giggling a little, "I don't even care if our movie night date was sabotaged by a nine-year old," she said and turned the camera around to show the boys were now laying on their backs, "Their friendship is just too darn adorable!" She said.

Ray looked up at her, "Hey watch it, or you're coming down to the ground too!" He said jokingly.

"Ya ya." Amanda laughed and handed the camera back to Drex.

"Well everyone," Drex said and tried to catch his breath, "I'd say that was pretty successful!" He then looked at Ray, "You can get back to your movie now."

Ray looked at him and frowned, but smirked, "Gee thanks." He said sarcastically and stood up from the ground.

Drex laughed, then the video ended.

"So….Amanda seemed pretty nice." Henry pointed out as soon as the video ended.

Ray turned around, "Ya she was. She broke up with me a couple weeks later for keeping secrets from her."

"How old were you there?" Jasper asked.

"I believe I just turned 15." Ray answered.

Jasper nodded and then there was a bit of an awkward silence. Ray stared at the ground as he seemed to be very distracted by the videos he just watched.

"Ok, this is just very depressing to watch." Schwoz said and walked away from the secret door. "I have an idea."

Everyone looked at him, "What?" Ray asked.

"I don't know if you'll like it but you have to be honest if you want to do it or not." Schwoz said.

"Ok….?" Ray said, uncertain of what the idea would be.
