Chapter 1: Twins

////Year 2007////

"I finally finished it!" cried Lewis to his adoptive mom and dad.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Fire it up!" cried Lucille excitedly.

It was a sunny Saturday and the Robinsons were currently crowded in their son's lab looking at his newest invention. Lewis had been working on this invention for the last month or so, taking as much time off from school as he could. The machine itself was massive. It took up a large chunk of the lab. It had two pods that looked like mini rocket ships that were connected to a set of wires and tubes. There was a control pad between the two pods.

Lewis nodded eagerly and cleared his throat to introduce the machine behind him. "This is the cloning pod! I can make however many clones of myself as I want to help me around my lab, do chores, anything I want it to!!"

"Nice going there buddy!" Bud shouted clapping his hand on his son's shoulder. "Maybe now your clones can mow the lawn instead of me!"

"Um…dad? My automatic lawnmower already does that" Lewis pointed out laughing.

"Oh yeah! So it does!" Bud laughed along with his son.

"Well Lewis, why don't you try the machine so we can go downstairs and eat the cookies I just baked!" Lucille said happily pushing Lewis towards the machine.

"Ok then!" Lewis said smiling and running into the machine.

"Wilber! Get back here!" cried Carl running after the youngest Robinson.

"I gotta go see Lewis!" called Wilber back as he entered the garage.

"What!??!" shouted Carl ran in front of Wilber. "You promised your parents that wouldn't use the time machine again!"

"But I've found something that needs to be explained!" Wilber said in annoyance trying to get pass the robot.

"But you promised!" Carl said refusing to let Wilber get to the time machine.

"I know!" Wilbur shouted angrily at the robot. "I know. But…there's something…something I have to know…"

Wilbur's shoulders slumped as he glared at the floor. Carl sighed as he looked at the upset teen in front of him. Grumbling about how he was going to regret this, he pushed Wilbur towards the time machine.

"I don't know how long I'm gonna be able to distract the family" he said.

Wilbur looked at him first in question before his eyes lit up and he hugged the robot.

"Thanks Carl! I owe you one!" he shouted at he jumped into the time machine and started it up.

"Just try to keep it less than 30 minutes!" Carl shouted as the time machine flew away.

////Year 2007////

Lewis ran to the machine and started to hit buttons on the control panel. He then turned to his mom and dad.

"Ok when I'm in the pod on the left, just push the green button" he said pointing out the button to them. "That will activate the pods. Just make sure you're clear of the doors though. Any DNA other than mine will alter the clone, got it?"

"Sure do, son" Bud said as Lucille excitedly looked at the other parts of the machine.

Lewis walked into the left pod and gave his dad the thumbs up. Bud returned the gesture before pushing the green button. The door closed and a brilliant red light filled the inside of the pod. Suddenly, a white light flashed from both pods and Bud and Lucille were forced to cover their eyes. A loud crack echoed before silence rang throughout the room. Gingerly, Lucille and Bud opened their eyes. The pods were clouded with smoke inside. The doors opened and the smoke came billowing out. At first, nothing and no one came out of either of the pods.

"Lewis?" Lucille called out in a worried voice.

Suddenly, Lewis came out of the left pod, coughing. Bud and Lucille cheered and engulfed their son in a tight hug.

"Thank goodness you're alright!" cried Lucille.

"Thanks mom" Lewis said hugging his mom tight before letting go. "But what about the clone?"

They all looked at the other pod. The clone hadn't come out. Cautiously, they proceeded to the pod. Most of the smoke was gone now, with just a small bit stirring at the bottom. Standing in the middle of the pod, with its eyes still closed, was a perfect replica of Lewis. The only difference is that he was naked while the real Lewis was still fully clothed.

"I did it!" shouted Lewis excitedly running over to the clone. "It really worked!"

The clone opened its eye weakly and looked around seeing the three blurry figures, it jumped back in surprise.

"Who are you??" it asked nervously.

"Hi! I'm Lewis!" said the shortest blurry person as he walked forward. "And you're a clone of me!"

"A clone?" the clone asked wrinkling his nose in confusion. "What's a clone?"

"It's a copy of something, but never mind that now" the short figure blabbered on. "I'll explain everything later, why don't you come out of the pod and we can go to my room so I can show you where you're going to stay"

"He needs a name Lewis" the second shortest figure jumped in tenderly nudging the clone out of the pod and wrapped a towel around his waist. "And some clothes maybe"

They all headed down to Lewis' room to get some clothes for the clone. Suddenly the clone bumped into a large bust of Bud and Lucille. It came crashing down while the clone yelled in panic. Lewis knocked him out of the way sending them sprawled out on the floor.

"We'll need to get him some glasses" muttered Lewis. "His eyes are as bad as mine"

"Technically they are yours" joked Bud as he and Lucille helped them up and they proceed to Lewis' room once again.

Once they arrived, Lewis gave his clone a pair of glasses which helped him change into the genius' normal sweater/shirt and shorts ensemble. The clone finally seemed to be getting used to everything and even some of Lewis' memories were starting to surface.

"Now, we just have to give you a name" said Lucille. "We can't call you Lewis because Lewis is already Lewis"

"I know!" Lewis said excitedly. "What about Cornelius?"

They all looked at the clone who thought about it before smiling.

"I like it" they all cheered and then went to get the cookies that were still waiting for them in the kitchen.

"So now that you know your clone machine works, how many more clones are you going to make?" asked Lucille as Lewis and Cornelius sat at the counter.

"Actually I don't think I'll be making anymore" Lewis said as everyone else looked at him in surprise. "My main goal was to have a brother who could help me with the lab"

Lewis at Cornelius to see his feelings on that. To his surprise, Cornelius smiled and nodded in agreement. Lewis smiled back.

"I think it's a good idea" said Cornelius. "The lab is pretty big and this way we can watch out for each other while being able to stay at the same pace"

Lewis nodded happily while his parents laughed at the boys' tactics. Well, maybe this would be good for Lewis, he can have someone who will be willing to help him and know what he's gone through. Yes, the Robinsons will have another son and their family would do great things.
