Brief outline: A Yellow, Shining thing is located at everyone's house. No one knew that it was there. Luke and Pene are best friends since Kindergarten. CJ and Kit are eternal enemies! But something in the flashing things, brings them all together.
Once they put it on them, a 'Star' is revealed. When not on them, there is a blue 'Circle' were the star is formed. On the flashing thing, a Star is formed and on their left or right ankle, a Star is tatoo-ed.

About the Ball: It can Locate anyone who is wearing the thing, and later on it will be discovered that it can also locate the 4 of them, without the thing.

Luke: 15
Pene: 15
Kit:14
CJ: 14

I have a question:
How is NaNo going to count my words? I shall post the whole thing each day on? What programme to use? What to do
(It's my first year xP)

Edit: Also, how can I add you as my buddies on NaNo?

All NaNo wordcounting questions can be answered here:

As for adding writing buddies, I believe you just got to "My NaNoWriMo," click "Writing Buddies" and type in the usernames of the people you want as writing buddies. HOWEVER, I think you may have to wait until November starts. I am NOT sure. Just look around the FAQ.

Ok, thanks!

Marvirs: The blue sphere on the yellow thing, is a Marvir. When the Marvir is on the ground/Earth at the moment, the yellow thing is flashing. Itself, it is the thing that can track those 4 with/or without wearing the yellow thing!
They can summon it to come out, or just stay on the yellow stripe (aka Thing )

He moved slowly in his sleep…Deep and precious! The light coming from the attic didn’t disturb his sleep. The attic was leading to his room so he was the only one who could see it; and he was far asleep! He got really tired this morning. It was Saturday, and as known, Luke never studied. He ran in parks and neighbors, playing football or any other sport! He loved sports… He was actually amazed of the players. His dream was to become something like them, once. He wanted no one to ruin this dream. But something would, someday…

'Riing, Riing!’
Luke’s alarm clock was ringing, although it was Sunday. ‘Never turn it off, if will you turn it on later!’ that was Luke’s logo, for not turning off his alarm clock!
Luke stand up slowly, yawned and pressed the black button on the alarm clock and it finally stopped! He got on his feet, half-sleeping, and moved towards the bathroom. He was short, blonde haired and medium weight. He wanted to lose more weight, only by playing football.
He tried to open the door...
“Hey!” a voice from inside was heard.
“Sorreh…” Luke said. His sister was in, and he, half-asleep, didn’t notice it. His sister got out, slapped him on the face and left. She was twice Luke’s size, and she thought she was something ‘more and special’
He got in, went to the toilet, washed his face and looked himself in the mirror. His brown eyes were spotted piercing on few spots on his forehead.
“Not again!” he yelled! He hated those spots, also known as acne. You see, for a 15-year-old boy, it was usual. But Luke hated it! He started putting on too much of the ‘more and special’ cream for spots, of his sister. She didn’t like that, but he wanted the spots to go away!
He put too thick layer on his face. He then started washing it away, with pure water. He had put too thick layer, and it needed a lot of water. When it had finally been washed away, he swept the water with a soft, woolen towel and headed towards his room.
When entering, he spotted a Blue, Gooey thing… It had a Shell, two pointy hair, and Feathers!
What was it?! Luke went nearer and touched it. It was cold, and it felt like jelly. He then ignored it… He didn’t really care about it. The only he cared was to study his French so quickly, that at 8 he would be out…
And it was 7.30 am!
Luke ran to his black, Kipling bag. He took out his Orange Tricoloure 2 French book, turned to page 25, and started doing exercise 8! Oh, so boring! His pen had already dried out, at the point when he finished French. And then, The Rush!
He ran towards his wardrobe, got out ¾ blue trousers, and wore them really quickly, like lighting! He wore a pair of old, gray, destroyed trainers! They got destroyed with all that kicking! His T-shirt was red. It was a Nike 180°… Limited Edition, but he wears it so often! He got out of the room. The wooden coloured carpet of the hall became blacker, from all the stepping.
On his rush, he didn’t eat any breakfast. He just grabbed a toast, on his way out. His mother never accepted this, nor did his ‘more and special’ sister. They always criticized him; he got used to!
He got out of the house, in the clean, clear sky! He breathed some clean oxygen-OK, as clean it can be in the middle of London- and looked around. His house looked identical to the rest 5 of them. His was the 3rd one, when you count from left to right. Well, it had a red rose, outside in the garden, and that was the only way he could recognize it!

She suddenly woke up! What a terrible nightmare! She saw a gooey -like thing coming in her room! How was that possible?! Sweat was going down from her forehead, she tried to forget it but she wasn’t able; she had already slept…

She stood up from the chair. She yawned and looked out of her window. The sun was shining, and it looked great for a walk! She had just finished studying and was wearing her clothes; a blue jean, with pink t-shirt and red trainers.
Her brown hair was taken back, as a pony tail. Her black eyes were flashing, while the sun was striking in them. She moved slowly, but steadily. Pene got into her brother’s room.
“Evan, I am going out,” she announced to her brother. He was still in bed, but was half asleep.
“Oki…” he said and turned to the other side. Their parents were away for a job meeting, and they were left at home alone. Well, a 15-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy were able to take care of themselves, for the weekend.
She moved downstairs, into the kitchen. She grabbed a glass and poured in some milk. She drank it quickly and washed-well put some water- in it. She moved towards the door, when she remembered something and ran back to her room!
Her keys! How would she get in later? Her brother would go to sleep again… She grabbed the keys, which where in her school bag. She then started moving downstairs again. She was tired all ready!
She opened the wooden door, and got outside… Pene spotted Luke sitting on the basement. Her best friend! They had been friends since kindergarten! Luke slowly turned upwards to see her. The sun was in his eyes, so he out his hand in front of him.
“Pene!” Luke exclaimed when he understood who was coming towards him. “How are you?”
“I am all right…Finished homework. How ‘bout you?” she asked him. She knew that he never studied on Saturdays, so he should have studied by now…
“Yeah I did the French homework. I didn’t understand the inequalities, in Maths. Care to help?” Luke answered and fell back. His back was now touching on the cold and wet basement.
“Yuck! Wet!” he yelled and rushed up!
Pene giggled and started walking towards his house.
“Let’s go…Someone needs to teach to dumb heads too!” she said laughing and waited for him to open the door. Luke rang the doorbell instead of opening the door itself! He hadn’t got the keys, you see! Mrs. Emily opened the door. A black-haired woman, in her mid-forties, tall and medium weight. She greeted Pene and let both of them to get inside. They then both rushed upstairs and Luke got in the room first.
While Pene was getting in, a scream got out of her mouth!
“Agggghhhhhh!”
“What happened?!” Luke yelled back! He saw Pene nearly falling like a drank man on the floor, if he hadn’t got her from the hands. Her black eyes, while entering, observed the gooey thing in Luke’s room, and that reminded her of the one in her nightmares!
“Where did you get that? Throw it out!” Pene was still shouting, although Luke made her sit on his bed, and made her drink a glass of water. Of course, Pene was talking about the blue, gooey thing that was on Luke’s chair. That was the thing in her nightmares…
“What’s wrong with it?” Luke asked, but Pene didn’t answer. She stared at the gooey thing. She thought that it had an evil look, although the two beautiful eyes looked familiar and innocent.
She finally relaxed, left a pure sigh and fell back, onto Luke’s pillow. It was 9 o’clock, already! This situation had been going for an hour! What a disaster! Now the sun was even higher in the sky, and even hotter!
