So, this is my first attempt in writing a story…here. I've written stories on other sites about other things, but I have never written one here. I just hope I'll make a good first impression^^

Okay so I'm stopping the author note.

The cab pulled to a stop at UFO Space Expo. Victoria paid no attention and had her eyes on her PSP, only. She ignored the conversation the two adults in the cab with her were having.

"Welcome to the nutjob convention." Her uncle, Jack Bruno, said to the woman on the back with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"I understand your reaction. They certainly aren't helping our cause." The woman replied with a joking tone in her voice, but it made Victoria wonder, causing her to butt into the conversation anyways.

"Our cause?" She questioned. The woman gave her a look before answering. "Educating the public of the legitimate possibility of life on other planets." She gave both Victoria and Jack no time to answer as she continued, "As a matter of fact, I'm giving a lecture on Astrophysical Anomaly Detection at the, uh, 'nutjob convention'." She offered something to Jack that seemed to be some kind of pamphlet which Victoria assumed would be about the whole astrophysical lecture.

"Feel free to stop by, skeptics are always welcomed. Keep the change." The woman said again before handing Jack money.

"Thanks." Jack replied shortly before watching the woman leave, and Victoria can't help but raise an eyebrow. "Dr. Alex Friedman." Jack muttered to himself as he read the pamphlet.

"So, I've noticed how you look at her." Victoria cupped her face with both of her palms as she stared at Jack with a teasing look. "Be quiet." Jack answered before taking a final look at the pamphlet and driving the cab back to home, leaving Victoria to let out sounds of laughter. Well, not exactly, Jack can only drive the cab to the destination of the customers' and/or where it belongs to. So after he dropped the car at the place where he works, he and Victoria have to walk back to their house.

The next morning, they were walking back to where his cab is. Victoria should've been at school by now, but it was a day off. Some staffs and teachers meeting or whatever they call it. But once Jack spotted the black SUV, he immediately told Victoria to get into the cab first.

"Is it Wolfe?" Victoria asked quietly, clearly saying 'Not going into the cab until you answer' only with the look she's wearing. "Probably one of his mans. Now get in." Jack ordered, and promises are promises, as Victoria obediently sat in the passenger seat while Jack head towards the guys that seemed to be "Wolfe's mans".

She put on her Beatz by Dr Dre headset and turned on her mp3 (she barely has enough time to spend money to buy an iPod) as she listened to music whilst watching Jack deal with the guys. Her hair was let loose, with the exception of the small fishbone braid she did around her pony. Her hair was a very dark brown colored hair with blue highlight on a few strands, and her skin was very pale, compared to Jack's slightly dark one. She was wearing black shorts, a white tank top along with a black sleeveless cardigan, with a pair of short brown boots.

Feeling like she's being watched, she looked to the back of the cab and was slightly surprised to see two blonde teenagers around her age staring at her curiously. She quickly took off her headset and asked, "Who are you?" in a questioning tone. Before the blondes had time to answer, the sound of Jack pinning the two men's heads on the bonnet of the cab made Victoria turn her head back to Jack. He and the two guys exchanged a few words before they were told to move their car out of the taxi zone by a cop.

By the time Jack returned to his cab, he still hadn't realized the two teenagers sitting on the back seat. Victoria thought he knows about the teenagers, so she let it go. He starts driving his cab towards the inner of Vegas. A few minutes later he glanced up at his rear view mirror, and abruptly pulled the brakes, causing Victoria to stumble forwards.

Jack looked behind, and eyed the two teenagers who stared back at him, confused.

"Where'd you come from?"

"O-Outside." One of the teenagers who's a boy answered, and Victoria can't help but to roll her eyes. Duh, she thought.

"Yeah, I figured that part out on my own. How'd you get in the car?" Jack shot the boy an obvious look before questioning.

"Through that portal." The other teenager, this time a girl, answered as both of the kids pointed towards the cab door. Victoria let one of her eyebrows rose at the formality the girl was using. She also immediately knew that the girl was some type of relative of the boy, because they look so similar.

"I'm Seth. This is my sister, Sara. We require transportation services immediately." The boy named Seth explained, and Victoria had to admit to herself, that he did quite have the looks. His sister was pretty stunning, too.

"Do you guys use formality that much?" She allowed herself to ask, but Jack ignores her and replied with his own sentence. "Really? Well I require-"

"A currency transaction." Sara finished his line.

"Would this amount suffice?" Seth asked as he took out a huge amount of cash from his pocket and Victoria had her mouth open. "What, did you two rob a bank or something?" She said in disbelief and scoffed as Seth gave her a short glare before turning back to Jack.

"Is this acceptable, Jack Bruno?" Sara continued, flashing Victoria a small apologetic look, probably due to how cold her brother was acting.

"How'd you know my name?" Jack asked, not yet answering Sara's question as she pointed at the taxi driving license on the front. Victoria flashed Jack a small 'owned' smirk.

"If we have a deal for your services, we must move forward rapidly. It's urgent we get to our destination without delay." Seth said, still being formal and keeping his face pretty much emotionless. I'm pretty sure saying "hurry up" would've been much easier, Victoria thought to herself.

"Alright, alright! I'm going." Jack shouted at the lines of cars queuing behind him. As he took a glance at the blonde siblings, then at Victoria, he starts driving. "Where to?"

As a few seconds passed and no answers were heard, Victoria turned to the teenagers to see Seth fiddling on some kind of device.

"I need an address." Jack asked once more. "We must travel in that direction." Sara pointed ahead of them, and Victoria gave her an 'are-you-kidding-me' frown.

"A little more descriptive than that." She said. "Well, I'm gonna need something more specific than just 'that direction'." Jack implied.

Seth started, keeping his eyes on the weird device thing he was holding. "We must locate latitude 40.54 cross-intersecting longitude-"

Jack held up a hand, causing Seth to stop talking, the same time Victoria said, "I think we're just gonna stick with 'that direction'. Sounds good to you, Jack?" Victoria glances at Jack who nodded merely, driving his cab into the address that was just a simple 'that direction'.
