9Emma y Martin, hermanos gemelos aprendiendo a conllevar una mudanza a una nueva ciudad, son transportados en el tiempo por un libro mágico en la primera parte de la serie "Legendarios". Los gemelos de nueve años, Emma y Martín, no podrían ser más diferentes en sus personalidades, intereses e incluso en su apariencia. Pero en algo están absolutamente de acuerdo: mudarse de Cuernavaca, México, a Illinois es una terrible idea. Desafortunadamente, no tienen opinión al respecto cuando su papá consigue su trabajo soñado como director de una escuela secundaria en Chicago. Para ayudar a los gemelos a mantenerse conectados con su herencia mexicana, su abuela les regala un libro de leyendas mexicanas. El libro resulta ser más que un regalo de despedida... es un objeto mágico que los transportará en el tiempo! En la primera leyenda, Emma y Martín se encuentran con Tláloc, el dios de la lluvia. Tláloc está enojado porque su rayo ha sido robado, y su ira se manifiesta como un aguacero torrencial sobre la antigua ciudad de Texcoco. La lluvia no cesará hasta que se le devuelva el rayo, por lo que Emma y Martín se disponen a recuperarlo. Encontrarán el rayo de Tláloc a tiempo para ayudar a la gente de Texcoco a salvar sus hogares? O la ira del dios de la lluvia marcará el fin de esta ciudad legendaria?
