(Meteor Day)

It’s Meteor Day a day
celebrating the fact that a meteor shower happens the same day every year, Mr.
Peter Peppermint, the college English teacher is teaching a class, Mr. Peppermint
tells the class in an overly dramatic way that their homework is to read or
watch Romeo & Juliet so that they can write about it in their next lesson
then tells the class that whomever keeps leaving peppermints in his office
needs to stop it as Chris secretly chuckles while the narrator goes slowly
through the class to give quick descriptions of each person.

The lesson ends, William
leaves first, walking down the hall and out the shot, Connor then leaves to the
martial arts classroom with Erika sneaking into the small watching room next to
it, Mr. Peppermint leaves out the exit outside, Jim and Cody go into the room
next door to work on their individual projects with Cody typing on a PC while
Jim puts on a helmet and places food on the table, Tyler and Mack stay in the
classroom because Tyler is lonely and Mack is just taking his time, Ana and
Diego both start walking down the hallway, Chris and Jasmine stand in the
hallway and talk about how they are and talk about hanging out as friends the
next weekend then Jeff walks into the hallway and makes a mean joke about Chris
being bisexual and then he goes into the PC room.

As Jeff enters Cody
mumbles something about getting a virus and angrily leaves the room and out the
exit while Jeff mocks Jim for being a nerd and accidently mess with the wires
in the helmet and a spark shocks Jeff making him angrily start to leave, Mack has
decided to leave the classroom now and walks towards the door while Connor
trains in martial arts as Erika sneakily takes a photo through the window.

At that moment, the
ground shakes and everyone who is still in a classroom or a hallway are
stumbling around as meteors crash into the ground and cause energy waves, Chris
stumbles into Jasmine as he is hit by the energy causing lightning to surround
him while Jasmine is slightly hit by energy and her eyes glow green for a few
seconds.

Diego’s hands set on
fire while Ana freezes part of the wall, Mack struggles to open the stuck door
but then he uses his new strength to force the door open, Tyler glows green,
Jeff starts melting into the door, Cody’s computer starts to glitch out and Jim
is electrocuted.

Then the opening
credits play…

The scene opens with
Chief Johnson telling the teacher Mr. Peppermint that they took Jim to hospital
for his injuries before leaving.

(1 day after Meteor Day)

The next day Diego is
hanging out on the stairs when Chris comes in and tries to start a
conversation, Diego worried that Chris is going to tell on him for smoking
attacks Chris with his fire powers causing Chris to use his speed powers,
running into walls and stuff because he is new to the powers, Chris accidently
runs into Diego which makes Diego run but as he gets downstairs and into the
hallway Mack puts his arm out and Diego runs into him hurting himself as the
super strength knocks Diego backwards onto the floor, Chris then explains that
he wouldn’t care about him smoking and that it was a misunderstanding causing
Diego to walk away.

Later that day Connor
and Will walk towards each other in the hallway and come across each other,
they have a small banter about each other’s parent’s tech companies being
better than each other and then talking about why each of them would be better
than each other once they are running their parent’s businesses before going
their separate ways and Connor goes into the training room again where he finds
Jasmine learning to fight with a bo-staff, they both train together as they
talk about their reasons for training, Connor wanting to fight crime and solve
his parents death while Jasmine wants to help people but doesn’t have powers
like someone she saw using super speed.

Meanwhile Cody goes
into the PC room where all the screens turn on and a face appears on the
screen, Cody questions the face and the face replies that it is the artificial
intelligence that Cody created, stole the face of a student who died a few
years ago and that it is here for revenge on Cody for trying to delete it.

Then the ad break happens…

Cody runs as quickly
as he can and hides in the training room where he explains the situation to
Connor and Jasmine and the three go back to the PC room where the face has
appeared on all the screens now saying that it knew Cody would return, Cody
tells the other two that he has a memory stick that he can use to trap The
Virus if they distract it while he gets to his PC.

Connor and Jasmine
dodge and block electric blasts from the PC’s while Erika who was secretly
listening in hides behind the door and takes a photo from behind the door
window which causes The Virus to freak out and vanish from all the PC’s.

Meanwhile Chris sees
Ana sneaking around and goes to ask her how she is after her mother’s funeral a
few weeks ago, Ana gets angry and freezes Chris to the wall leaving only his
head unfrozen. Chris makes a flirty joke about him getting through her icy
exterior and she gets annoyed at him, Chris then vibrates his molecules to thaw
the ice and then zaps her with his electricity. Ana tells him that she won’t
steal anything anymore and Chris says that is a good thing.

(2 days after Meteor Day)

Jeff comes into the
college having been gone for a while, Chris walks in and sees Jeff and makes a
friendly joke about Jeff “flirting” with him on Meteor Day but Jeff turns his
hand into a hammer and whacks Chris back into a wall then Mack walks in and
charges at Jeff but Jeff makes his body slightly liquid causing Mack to get
stuck and then fall down, meanwhile Tyler is sat in the classroom testing his
powers while talking with himself on what to do with those powers.

Chris and Mack try a
double team attack on Jeff when Erika sees the fight in the small connected
hallway and goes into the training room to tell Connor, Cody and Jasmine about
what is going on, the group run into the hallway causing Connor and Jasmine to
try and attack Jeff but there punches and staff hits do nothing, Cody tells
everyone that if they could turn Jeff solid they could defeat him which gives
Chris an idea and he runs away at super speed.

Tyler sees that Jeff
is overpowering Connor, Jasmine and Mack so he uses his light powers to blind
Jeff to give them a chance to push him back, meanwhile Chris finds Ana thinking
about him and asks her for help, she gets ready to freeze him but he explains
the situation and then flirts about them becoming a dynamic duo, Ana decides to
help him after complaining about how corny he is, they come behind Jeff and Ana
freezes him solid and then Connor, Chris, Jasmine and Mack all hit him at the
same time as Tyler blasts another light beam shattering him to pieces.

Later the police chief
talks to the teacher Mr. Peppermint who explains that a bunch of superheroes
beat a supervillain in the school hallways as the police chief carries away the
shattered pieces of Jeff to be stored in prison.

The group of heroes
are hanging out in the training room except Ana and Tyler and Chris talks about
forming a superhero team, Connor as the leader and Cody as the “guy in the
chair” and Chris as the guy who names all the superhero stuff, Connor says he
will call himself Magpie but Chris tells him that a supervillain already goes
by that name.

Then the end credits
play while the scene shows Tyler sitting in the classroom talking to his other
selves again as he shifts back and forth before finally turning red and
declaring that the darkness will have revenge.
