Her three friends, Sheltan, Ben and Hi are all considered Geeks. Them and her make up a great team. Tori has this thing about dogs, better yet a wolf dog. She has mated with a German Shepard. They had two pups.

They all go to the same school. Tori is only 14 years old but very smart. She and her friends decide to take a trip to loggerhead island to see the pups. But one pup is missing and the wolf dog isn't real happy about it. So Tori talks the others into breaking into the labs to see if they can find him. She's named him cooper.
