Prologue

Donald's P.O.V.

The new holo-table was projecting the bodies of Adam, Bree, and Chase. It was becoming more challenging for the three to go on missions, so I was starting to work on an update for them. From what I was seeing, their power was weakening.

"Just a few more adjustments." I assured myself as I changed the structure of the chips in their necks. It seems as though if I made just a few more advancements...

My finger swiped the projection. A keyboard popped up. Then I typed in the numbers 55783901 and the submit button popped up.

The elevator opened to my right. "Ah!" I yelled out, because it startled me. The sunglasses I were wearing fell off my head as I jumped from the surprise. But it was only Bree.

"What's up, Mr. D?" She asked as she walked around the desk without even noticing she scared me. She strolled over to the capsules and leaned up against Adam's. Her left arm propped her up.

As I bent over to grab the glasses I began explaining, "If you actually are interested in what I am doing," I then picked myself up and put the pair back on my forehead. I continued, "I am updating the molecular format of you bionic chips to endure the better quality of your..."

Bree cut in, "English please?" She asked sarcastically. I could tell by the look on her face that she was already lost.

"Sometimes I wish you all were as smart as Chase." I joked. But, Bree looked at me like what I said was a terrible insult. She smirked afterwards though, which gave me a signal that she didn't mind.

"Well, if you want it in "English", I am changing the shape of your, and your brother's chips so you can use your bionic abilities and do better work, I guess you can say." I explained to her.

"Ok, so how do we change the shape? It's like, stuck, in our necks," Bree blurted out. She stroked her neck as she asked the question.

When she said that, I thought for a moment about it. "Um... I honestly don't even really know." This baffled me that I haven't thought about it before.

"Your the mega-million dollar scientist! You will think of something." She called. When I turned my head to look at her face, I could tell that she was totally confident in me. It feels nice to know that people out there really do believe in you.

"Your right! I am the handsome, rich, super scientist! I can do this!" I said in triumph.

She gritted her teeth, "Uh, I didn't say handso... you know what. Never mind." She laughed a little after she spoke.

I holo-clicked the submit button on the projection. The three bodies on the screen were zoomed up to the point where it only showed up from chest up to the head. A little spot blinked in the necks. Bree moved her body from the capsule over to the desk. She watched intently.

"What is the little bleep thing?" She questioned to me and pointed to the thing in the neck.

"That, is not just a little "bleep" thing, Bree." I told her, though acted like she should know exactly what I am talking about. "It's your chips. If I try, I can transfer the data from here to the super computer and update it from there."

After a few minutes of downloading and transferring, the data reached the computer. I did a few calculations, and I was done! I then fingered my hands into the shape of a gun and shouted, "BAM!"

I turned over to Bree, but she was still as a board.

"Bree? Earth to Bree! Hello?" I asked the what seemed as an inanimate human. Her eyes were like marbles. "Bree? Talk to me." I tried to bring her back, but her body slammed onto the ground.

I bent down as fast as I could to catch her. I slowly laid her body onto the ground. "It's ok. It's ok." I told myself and the black outed sack of Bree. I knelt down by her, breathing unconditionally. When I snapped back into reality, my fingers wrapped around her wrists and took her pulse. It was normal.

Then the elevator opened again. This time it was Leo. Hauling one giant, and one "somewhat girly" body across the floor. "Big D!" Leo shouted in confusion. "What is happening?"

"It must be a malfunction in the update I put in them." I said. "But I have know idea how it could lead to this." My hands started spazzing out as I watched Leo drag my Chase and Adam across the floor.

I flew over to him as fast as I could move. "Here, let me help." I exclaimed in a frightened voice. My arms wrapped around Chase's waist and I pulled him up and threw him over my shoulder.

Leo gave me a surprised look. "You couldn't have picked up, Adam? He is like... one billion pounds!" He joked. This wasn't a time for laughs, though.

Then, once I reached my super computer, I laid Chase's body on the ground next to Bree's. I tried not to pay attention to them so I didn't freak out even more then I already was.

I ran back over and started at my computer and tried to click a few buttons to fix something. Yes, I know. Not like me. But, you have to understand, I was panicking. "Wait, Leo. Go over there and grab my X-ray Glass." I commanded.

"Ok." He replied. After setting Adam next to Chase, Leo ran over to the other room. I heard a bunch of clanking metal and my precious inventions being smacked around by my stepson. Then I heard an anxious voice call out, "Is this it?" His hand reached out from the wall holding my portable x-ray magnifying glass. Gosh, I'm awesome.

"Yeah Leo. Bring it here." I said with no patience whatsoever. It does trouble a father when he sees three of his kids paralyzed on the floor. Just looking down at their bodies made me shutter. I looked up as soon as possible, just to see Leo in front of me with the X-ray glass held out for me to grab.

I yanked it from his hands and went over to Bree. I scanned her neck with the glass just to find the chip in her neck slowly forming itself into a flat, circular shape. Same with Adam and Chase when I checked over them.

I explained what was happening to Leo. When I pretty much made it clear to him, he took the glass back and scanned Adam. "Uh... Mr. Daven..."

"KILL YOU CHASE!" Adam screamed as he suddenly just stood up. Leo flipped out and yelled like a yipping chihuahua. His arms flailed as Adam picked him up by the collar and hovered him in the air. Then, Adam turned his head a few times and took in his surroundings.

"Woah. How did I get here? And how did you magically become Leo?" He questioned. He kept looking around, totally confused, I mean, even more confused then normal him.

Chase stood up, looking as puzzled as Adam. "Ok, did Adam punch me so hard I passed out, because I honestly have no idea how I got to the lab." He gasped.

As if on cue, Bree popped up in a flash. She pointed to me and said "I am officially not hanging out with you anymore."

"And then the magic chip thingy in your neck turned into flat, circle! It was so cool!" Leo cleared up for the three.

Chase snickered "Watching a metal chip form into a, a circle, was cool?" Bree and Adam started to laugh.

"Well, it was the highlight of my day! Hey, cut me some slack! I started my day out hauling your sorry butts around the house. It doesn't sound fun does it?" Leo ranted.

"It does to me! I love to drag your bodies around. Who am I kidding! I could do it all day!" Adam said, laughing. "You know what? I'll try it now!" He grabbed his hands around Leo and Chase's arms.

"Break it up, break it up boys." I hollered as I shook my hands. "Come on. Just let the child finish. Keep going Leo."

Adam let go of their arms. "Fine."

"Then, all of a sudden, you guys woke up. One by one. Adam, Chase, then you Bree." He said pointing to each person corresponding to their names. Everyone's faces were shocked.

"Just another day with the Davenports!" Chase joked, exclaiming it to the people in the lab. Then, we all started laughing all together.

Adam stood up after laughing. He put his hand up to his forehead. "Wow, am I ready for a nap." He confessed. Nods in agreement symbolized that everyone else needed to sleep. It was a pretty exhausting day so far.

"See ya later suckers." Leo teased. "I'm going upstairs into my comfy bed. Well, have fun in your capsules!" He teased sarcastically and turned around. Bree stuck her tongue out at him.

"Jokes on you! These capsules are pretty, um, cozy?" She sad to try to get back at him. Leo didn't mind and kept walking. Just as he reached the elevator doors, an alarm rang on my emergency alerter in my pocket.

"What is it now?" Adam groaned.

I reached in my pocket to see the red flashing light and the symbol that said "Mission Alert." Perfect timing don't you think?

I finished looking at the alert. When I put the phone down, I spoke. "Adam, Bree, Chase. You guys won't like this... But suit up. We have a mission."
