Meanwhile, at the lab, a training exercise was taking place when an alarm went off.

"ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!"

Chase, naturally, went to answer it.

"Unauthorized entry detected."

The screen switched to a security camera view showing the front door being blasted by a bionic ability. At this point, all of the Lab Rats were watching.

"Oh, cool, that looks just like our bionic abilities," said Adam. Chase wanted to correct him, but decided it wasn't really a good use of time. Especially with a bionic intruder.

Said intruder than proceeded to look at the camera with unnatural, glowing, yellow eyes. Chase decided to go over the speaker system that Mr. Davenport had installed. "Who are you, and why are you breaking-"

"—My very expensive front door?"

Everyone looked at Donald.

The intruder than responded in a slightly computerized, female voice. "What a pity. You don't know me. But I know you. You are Chase Davenport. Mission leader of the bionic team. And you, the one who whined about the door. You are Donald Davenport. Who, notably, earned my host-t-t-t-tility."

"Why are you here, exactly?" Chase didn't know what a person that sounded like a robot was doing here, but he wanted her out of her as soon as possible.

"That doesn't matter. What does matter is that you. Stay. Out. Of. My. Way. Actually, I'm going to kill you. So, just don't resist, and it won't hurt. Too much."

"I don't think so. You don't know where we are."

"Oh, I do." The intruder suddenly disappeared.

"That's odd. Where'd she go?"

"Right here." The intruder was standing at the entrance to the room. She was a robot, all right, designed to look like a female. She had yellow highlights and, notably, a large yellow "X" across her chest.

"Oh, by the way. About your previous question. You can call me Ximni."
