On the day of the VIdcon, the Squads were on a private plane that Ed's dad kindly arranged for them. Everyone was chilling in the plane enjoying the time they had while on the plane.

"Hey Ed, it was nice of your dad to arrange this for us," Erick said as he took a sip from his pop can.

"Hehe yeah, he was going to use this for a business trip, but it had to be delayed until next month and the project wasn't ready for presentation. So it was free to use and he decided to let us use it for Vidcon," Ed explained.

"Hehe well whatever the reason I feel awesome! I'm on a private plane with my amazing friends, going to my first ever Vidcon! I feel like a king! Aw man, I'm still amazed that we got invited to Vidcon!" Josh exclaimed.

"Hehe yeah same here! What about you Hannah?" Jake asked. However when he looked over he saw that Hannah was half asleep and wasn't really paying attention to what they were saying.

"Yo H! Are you good?" Erick asked.

"Huh? Oh y-yeah I am, I've just been struggling to get a good night's sleep lately," Hannah explained.

"Really how come? Are you alright?" Ed asked.

"Y-Yeah I'm fine guys I've just been having strange dreams for a while," Hannah explained.

"Oh really? What are they about?" Lila asked curiously.

"I can't remember what it's about. All I know is that when I wake up I'm in a hot, cold sweat and shaking violently," Hannah explained.

"Ew I know what it's like waking up like that, I wake up like that sometimes when I'm sick," Josh explained.

"Hey Hannah, you should get some rest. We're going to be landing in another two hours and we're going to be incredibly busy with getting everything together when we get to the hotel," everyone heard Catherine explain. They all looked to the entrance of the next room and they saw Cathreine standing there with some cloth in her hands.

"Yeah, there's a spare bedroom, just a few rooms down, if you want to be more comfortable," Ed explained.

"T-Thanks guys I'll go do that," Hannah mumbled and got up from her seat to get some rest. She got up and went to one of the doors that led out to a hallway that had really nice carpeting. She walked down the hallway looking out at the window to the amazing view of the clouds.

'Man I never thought I'd be here in life, but here I am, I'm going to Vidcon, I'm flying in a private jet, and I'm with my friends. All I need is just to get some sleep as I haven't been able to for the last few nights,' Hannah thought to herself as she went into one of the bedrooms and collapsed on the bed. Hannah passed out only in a few seconds after closing her purple eyes that had glowed red for a split second. An hour later Hannah woke up in the same bed that she fell asleep in, she sat up and rubbed her eyes sleepily.

"Yawn... How long was I asleep for?... I should get up and see if we have arrived yet," Hannah said to herself as she got up, stretched her arms, and walked up to the same door she had entered before falling asleep. She put her hand on the knob and opened the door; however, when she opened her eyes again from rubbing them she saw a black empty hallway.

"Um... what the heck?! Wasn't I on the plane?" Hannah asked herself. She then walked into the dark hallway and the door closed behind her and when she looked back she saw that it was now gone, leaving a black wall in its place.

"Okay, this isn't normal, where on earth am I? How did I get here, last I recall I was on a plane to Las vegas with my friends to VIdcon and now I'm here," Hannah said to herself. She looked around the place a bit more and didn't see anywhere else to go aside from straight ahead so she decided to go that way.

"If I don't have anywhere else to go, I might as well go straight," Hannah said to herself. As she walked she looked around to see if there was anywhere else for her to go. After a bit she started seeing a light ahead and as she got closer two figures came into view. When she saw the two she started running to get a closer look at them, the two soon came into her full view. She saw that the two were men who looked a lot alike and they were also wearing some old wizard clothing.

"Um hello? Sirs, who are you two, and where are we?" Hannah tried to ask.

The two didn't answer her and just picked up vile's that had pink liquid in them. Hannah was confused and thought it was a little rude, just then a red flame started sparking out of her chest confusing Hannah a lot.

"Um... okay, well I guess I'll see if I can find out where I am myself," Hannah said to herself and turned around to walk away. However before she could even take a step she heard glass breaking. Scared, she turned around to see the two men had broken the vials they were holding.

"You could've helped us! But you had to be a coward and leave us behind! You said we were friends! You said you'd always be there for us! But you left us behind!" one of the men screamed in pure anger.

Hannah looked at the two with fear written all over her face. She saw that their clothing was starting to change. The man who was on the left clothes started changing into a jester costume and the one who was on the right changed into that of a cowboy. The two looked right at Hannah with pure hatred and anger written all over their faces. Hannah got scared and tried to turn around and run; however, red strings wrapped around her holding her in place and kept her from moving an inch.

"I'm not allowing you to leave that easily! You're the reason this happened to us!" the jester guy exclaimed angrily.

"You could've done something to help us! But you left us for dead! And we turned into this!" the cowboy said in a southern accent.

The pink liquid took shape and formed into Craindre; it took on a neutral form and looked at Hannah with a psychotic smile on its face. Hannah's face turned to even more fear when she saw it as she was still traumatized by her last encounter with it.

"Oh hello Hannah. Aww what's with the matter? Didn't you miss me?" Craindre asked mockingly.

"LIKE HECK I DID! I MISSED YOU LIKE HOW I NEED A HOLE IN MY HEAD! AHHH!" Hannah screamed in anger, which then turned to pain as she felt the strings grip tighter on her.

"Ahah young lady, that isn't any way to talk to your friend now isn't it?" The jester guy asked mockingly.

"Yeah Didn't I give you amazing powers and help you?" Craindre asked mockingly.

"YOU TOOK OVER MY BODY AND TRAPED ME IN MY OWN MIND!" Hannah screamed.

"Aww but I did you a favor, it was only fair you did one for me, like returning me home. However I do want to ask for another favor, I'm feeling rather hungry and weak, so as one last favor for me. I'd like to take your heart, not your physical one but your magical one, after all it tastes much better and it is what gives me my POWER!" Craindre exclaimed and shot their arm right into Hannah's chest.

They instantly violently ripped Hannah's spiritual heart that was glowing bright red. It opened its mouth and chomped down on Hannah's heart, shattering it and she fell limp to the ground.

"Hannah, Hannah! HANNAH!" Iris screamed.

Hannah opened her eyes in fear as she was shaken awake, and Iris opened her mouth to scream Hannah's name again when Hannah let out a loud scream of pure terror.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Hannah screamed.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Iris screamed back from being startled by Hannah's shrieks.

"Ahhh, uh... Iris?" Hannah said, confused.

"Y-Yeah, oh dear I didn't know you could scream that loud," Iris said as she calmed down.

"Um... where are we?" Hannah asked.

"We're on the plane, and we've just arrived in Las Vegas for Vidcon," Iris explained.

"Oh really? How long have I been asleep for?" Hannah asked.

"About two hours, but that's not important, are you alright? You did wake up screaming," Iris explained, concerned for her friend.

"I-I'm fine I just had a bad dream," Hannah explained.

"Really? Do you remember what your dream was about?" Iris asked curiously.

"N-No I don't, but that's okay, that's the thing with dreams, you don't remember them sometimes," Hannah explained.

"Okay, well if you have another one come to me, I can try to help you out if it becomes a problem," Iris explained before getting up.

"Alright so I should get ready right?" Hannah asked.

"Yeah Catherine said we'd need to get off soon so, you should get up," Iris explained.

"Okay let everyone know I'll be out in a sec," Hannah said while sitting up and rubbing her eyes.

"I will," Iris said before she went up to the door and opened it. She was about to leave the room, but before she could close the door Hannah stopped her.

"Hey Um can you leave the door open? I'll close it when I leave the room," Hannah explained.

"Oh sure I can do that," Iris said and let go of the door handle. She then left, leaving Hannah alone in the room to think about what happened.

"Okay that was a strange dream, but who were those two men? Ah It might have been nothing, and Craindre was probably in there because I'm still not over what happened with it. I'll be fine, after all a few bad dreams never hurt anyone. This isn't "Nightmare on Elm Street" after all I can't be hurt in my dreams," Hannah reassured herself.

She then got up and brushed off her shirt before leaving the room, and closing the door behind her. "Now let's get this trip started!" Hannah exclaimed excitedly ready for the fun week they were about to have at Vidcon. Later on Hannah left the room and went to join her friends, when she got there she saw everyone with their suitcases with them all chatting about the day ahead.

"Hey guys, are you all excited for this?" Hannah asked as she came into the room.

"Oh yeah we are, and I see you're more awake than you were before, so did you sleep well?" Jane asked.

"Yeah I did, although I did have another dream, but I can't remember it again," Hannah explained.

"Well as long as you're well rested then it's alright, now let's go! I want this first Vidcon to be unforgettable!" Josh exclaimed full of energy and excitement.

The others all nodded and got off the plane and went to the entrance of the airport. "Ah, Las Vegas, the entertainment capital of the world!" Erick exclaimed as he looked up at the sky.

"Oh god! I didn't think it would be so hot here! I'm sweating up a lake over here!" Josh exclaimed as he lifted up his arm showing his sweat soaked hoodie.

"Bro just take your hoodie off and wrap it around your waist," Lila suggested.

"NEVER! THE ONLY WAY I'M COMING OUT OF THIS THING IS WHEN I DRAW MY LAST BREATH!" Josh screamed while wrapping his arms around himself and his hoodie. Everyone laughed at that as they all thought Josh was always so funny.

"Hey guys, our uber will be arriving here shortly to take us to the hotel which is right across the street where the convention center is," Ed explained.

"Awesome thanks for telling us," Jake said.

"I cant believe our parents allowed us to come here on our own," Jenny said.

"Yeah well my dad said that Catherine would take care of us and she's very responsible," Ed explained.

"Yeah but I also feel bad that we had to leave animal guides and Daniel back home," Josh said.

"Well they had to stay behind to keep an eye on Springfield for us," Jane stated.

"Yes plus I kinda don't need my older brother following me around all the time," Hannah stated.

"Yeah as much as I love my older siblings I also don't want them to follow me around as well," Jenny explained.

Everyone all nodded agreeing that they don't want their older sibling following them around all the time, well the Squads who have older siblings.

Later in the Shadow Realm, Jack was in his room at a workbench crafting a new puppet. His room had many featureless puppets hanging from red strings from the roof. The room itself had red and black striped wallpaper, while the floor was black and white checkered tile, and the roof just looked like it constantly went up into a black void. There were also some mirrors in the room, however some were shattered while others were covered. The room also had many different masks that were either comedy or tragedy; however, all of them appeared to only be enough to cover the upper part of the face.

As Jack worked on the puppet, his brother entered the room and looked around admiring the way his brother decorated the room. "Looks like you've been busy here brother, your new room looks great, and your puppets are just as emotionless as ever... However, could you not break almost every mirror? You know if you keep that up Adrienne will be very displeased as she is the one who will need to have an order to replace them," Jack's brother explained in his southern accent.

"I know I'm sorry John but the ones that are broken were the ones I saw my face without my mask on," Jack explained as he stroked the mask that was on his desk.

"Ah I see, well I know something that will make you laugh," John said.

"Oh and what's that brother?" Jack asked while raising his head.

"Hehe well Samuel is going to earth to try to defeat the Rainbow Squads! Do you want to go there and watch him fail?" John asked.

"Ohh hehe, I'm always in the mood to see someone fail!" Jack exclaimed excitedly.

"Hehe I knew you'd say that, now get your mask on and let's go," John said while leaving the room.

Jack smiled, got up and grabbed his mask and put it on his face and smiled as he also grabbed some puppets, planning on making them look like the Squads for his later tricks.

Back on earth, the Squads were now at the convention center and were just wandering around the place. As they were walking Josh looked at his social media and updated his Twitter saying that he and his friends were in the convention. After putting up the tweet others said that they were also there and they'd try to find and meet up with them.

"Hey dudes, some of our subs are here and they want to meet up!" Josh exclaimed excitedly.

"Really who?" Iris asked curiously.

"I don't know yet," Josh said as he looked at his phone to see who'd they all be meeting up.

"Um hey it'd be me and my friends!" a girl in the crowd said.

The Squads looked up and saw about 7 people standing not too far away from them.

"Hello I'm Mandy and these are my friends, this is Glitch, Alysa, Kitty, Shayna or Shay for short, Isabella, and Pax. They prefer they/them pronouns," Mandy explained.

"Oh well it's nice to meet you all. I'm Iris and you must already know my other friends if you all are here right?" Iris asked.

"Yeah I love your content, and Josh you make me laugh so much!" Isabella exclaimed.

"Really? Great! I love making people smile and laugh!" Josh declared.

"Yeah and Erick your music is hard core, and Jane I love that the stories you tell are super dark," Glitch explained to the power couple.

"Hehe well it's good to hear someone like my singing," Erick said, happy at what Glitch said.

"Y-Yeah you all are amazing, and I like the Let's Plays and Tricks that Jake shows in his Gameplays. It helped me out in a lot of games," Pax explained.

"Aww Glad I was able to help!" Jake exclaimed happily.

"Yeah and Jenny the foods you make are so yummy I've tried some of the recipes and they are so delicious!" Mandy exclaimed.

"Aww thanks I'm happy you love my recipes!" Jenny exclaimed.

"Hey your Iris right? I'm Shay for short, it's nice to meet you," Shayna said.

"Nice to meet you. I love your shirt, it looks cool," Iris said as she saw Shayna's TFP shirt that had Starscream on it.

"Hey, you like Transformers Prime? I do too!" Hannah exclaimed.

"Yeah Starscream and Knockout are my favorite characters!" Shayna exclaimed.

The Squads and their fans all chatted for a while enjoying each other's company. The fans even got some picture books of their favorite youtuber signed by each Squad and had a big photo taken at a nearby photo booth where a guy was taking pictures.

After a while the fans had to head back to their families so they bid their goodbyes to the Squads and went back to their families. The Squads all then went to a nearby table to sit and rest up as they were there for a few hours and were already tired.

"Man This is awesome and it's only the first day!" Josh exclaimed.

"Yeah I can't wait for what's to come for the rest of the week!" Jenny exclaimed excitedly.

"Well I looked into the even and many Youtubers were invited here and there's going to be a good number of panels and singing events along with music concerts so if any of you need any info just ask me and I can help you all with getting to the right panel and any kind of meet up with whomever you want to meet here," Ed explained.

"Good to know that with you here we can meet a lot of people Ed," Jake said.

"Yeah and I'm hoping to meet a lot of some of these people with you guys as I think it'll be more fun if we go together!" Iris exclaimed excitedly.

The whole gang nodded their heads in agreement and they all smiled as they felt like this week was going to be awesome. However Hannah's mind wasn't truly on Vidcon as all she could think about was the dream she had back on the plane. She wondered what it meant. Who were the two men in her dream and what were they talking about? All of these questions were running through her head and she couldn't think of any answer. She then looked to her friends, and wondered if they could possibly have any answers.

'Na how could they know what that dream ment, after all dreams are just things that our brains make up. And besides I'm sure my dream didn't mean much, it might just be my brain being a jerk and making stuff up,' Hannah thought to herself.

Meanwhile outside, Samuel was flying above LA and heading to the convention center as his crystal ball told him that they were there. This time he was determined to stop the Rainbow Squads once and for all and prove himself to Adrienne. However he couldn't shake the feeling of being followed by more than just one person. Meanwhile Jack and John were keeping their distance from Samuel so as to not make him aware of their presences.

"Hehe oh this is going to be so much fun! I even brought some puppets to make into the Rainbow Squads!" Jack exclaimed excitedly for the show that was to come.

"Hehe oh the puppets, you never stop making masks or puppets, don't you brother," John stated.

"Hehe oh no I don't nor will I ever... though I am curious to see who owns the red amulet now, considering what its last owner did to me," Jack stated as he stroked his mask while remembering that day.

John looked at his brother with sympathy as he knew that day will forever be burned into their memories. He patted his own back as it had some "reminders" of that day as well. However he instantly shook it off and focussed on what they were there for, to laugh and mock Samuel for failing to take out a group of teenagers.

Back with the Squads, they were outside enjoying a random food truck lunch they had gotten and were just talking about the plans ahead for the week. Josh had also had enough of the heat and now had his hoodie off but it was wrapped around his neck so he could keep a close eye on it. However their fun was short lived as they suddenly heard people screaming and a commotion going on the next corner.

"Oh great can't we go a day without anything going wrong here?" Erick asked, annoyed.

"Well let's go see what it is and if it's one of those shadows, I'm going to scream in the shower tonight," Jane stated just as annoyed.

The Squads all got up and ran to the source of the commotion, as they expected, they saw a shadow in the shape of a triceratops.

"Well guys, let's get this over with," Jake said as he cracked his knuckles.

The others all nodded and ran into a nearby alleyway to transform in peace. However before they transformed Ed got out his phone and made a call to Catherine to inform her about the situation. She picked up right away as her number one concern was Ed as she was his caretaker.

"Hello Edison, what's going on? And how can I help you out?" Catherine asked on the other side of the line.

"Well a shadow has shown up and we need you to hack into the security systems to avoid us getting caught transforming and our secret being exposed," Ed explained.

"Alright I'm on it thank you for informing me," Catherine said and ended the call to do her job.

"Thank god we have her to help us out with this," Lila said.

"Yeah now team, let's transform before Shadow causes more problems!" Hannah exclaimed.

"YEAH LET'S GO RAINBOW POWER ACTION!" the Squads all screamed together.

After transforming Iris teleported them to the area where the Shadow was.

When they arrive they let out their catchphrase, "Shining Bright In The Darkest Night Here Come The Rainbow Squads!"

"Well well well, look who it is! I suspected you all would show up," Samuel said mockingly.

"Ugh can't you give us a break so we can enjoy ourselves?!" Josh screamed angrily.

"Yeah we just wanted to have a fun relaxing week and yet you had to turn up and ruin it for us!" Jane shouted angrily.

"Oh like I care! You all are trying to stop us from destroying our plans so we have to stop you!" Samuel explained.

"Whatever, we'll just stop you again like we always do!" Jake exclaimed.

"Yeah cause like in anime and other shows with an evil doer, evil never prospers!" Lila stated.

"Oh well just see about that! Shadow attack!" Samuel commanded his shadow monster.

The Shadow roared and charged right at the Rainbow Squads who all let out a battle cry and went in to fight back. Meanwhile Jack and John were on a roof top not too far away from the area where they had a good clear view of the fight. "Hehe, well look at this brother the new Squads have quite the fight in them don't they? Much more than the old ones," John stated.

"Oh yes they do hehe," Jack giggled as he worked on making the puppets look just like the Rainbow Squads.

"Hey, what are you planning on doing with those puppets later?" John asked curiously.

"Oh just the same as I always do, but I'll need to observe the battles more and then get some of their DNA before I can actually use them," Jack explained.

"Ah alright, well I'll just be doing what I always do, wait for the right moment to strike and bring them to my lair. Hehe, and once they're down there I'll do whatever Adrienne asks me to do with them, she is the boss after all," John explained.

"Ugh I wish I was the boss and even the king!" Jack complained.

"Hehe well assassinating Lucifer is too hard especially in the state he's in as he's protected by a magical force field. And marrying into the family is out of the question as when you offered yourself as a husband to Adrienne, Lucifer beat you senseless. The only reason you're still alive after that is thanks to the only good thing we got out of that day," John stated.

"Yes I know, but I'm going to find some way to be king and I'm not going to give it up!" Jack declared determinedly.

John rolled his eyes and looked back down to the battle field, as he looked at each squad he noticed something about the Red Squad.

"Hey Jack take a good look at the Red Squad. There's something about her that seems familiar about an old EX friend of ours," John stated.

Jack looked at his brother confused and then looked back to the Red Squad and noticed that she did indeed have some similarities to someone he and his brother knew in the past.

"Hmm well would you look at that, you think she's related to him somehow?" Jack asked.

"Probably. She has some resemblance to him when he was still around. She does indeed look like a girl version of him," John explained.

The two then saw the Rainbow Squads use Rainbow Collision on the shadow returning it to its human form. After the Shadow was defeated Samuel retreated back into the Shadow realm.

Back with the Rainbow Squads, they all cheered with large amounts of joy after a successful battle with the Shadow. "Ahh Man those dudes need to step up their game," Josh said.

"Um Josh don't say that please?" Jenny asked.

"Yeah the last thing we need is for our enemies to gain the upper hand," Jane stated.

"Sorry I just feel like they're going easy on us," Josh explained.

"Let's keep it that way," Hannah said as she looked around. She looked up to one of the nearby buildings and saw two figures standing on the roof. She used her magic to get a closer look and once her vision adjusted she saw the two men. Her eyes widened in fear as she saw the two looked just like the men from her dream. The two men then teleported away leaving Hannah wondering who they were.

"Hey H you alright?" Jake asked, worried about his girlfriend.

"Huh? Oh yeah I'm fine," Hannah said.

"Well good as I think we should go somewhere to turn back alone as I can see a camera crew coming up to us and I don't think we need to be on camera right now!" Lika shouted and pointed to the crowd coming up to them.

"Right, Hey Iris, get us somewhere where we can transform back in peace," Jane asked Iris.

"On it!" Iris exclaimed and used her teleportation to get them out of the very crowded area.

After they transformed back they went back to the public area and continued to have a good time for themselves. However Hannah wasn't really enjoying herself much as she couldn't get the two men out of her head. 'Who were those two? And why do I have this feeling of guilt and sadness about them?' Hannah asked herself as she clutched onto her glowing amulet.
