We go on searching for our powers and our gifts and, in the meantime, we try to discover what Mommy was working on, what was in that Top Secret file when she and Daddy disappeared. I have the feeling that whoever or whatever is behind all of this, the answer lies there."

"I think," she said, "our adventures are only just beginning."
