"Guys, amazing news," she exclaimed, "Before 'Douglas' incinerated him, I was able to save this." She holds up a bionic chip, with a small difference in the model. /div

Donald exclaimed, "He's the toughest enemy you guys have ever faced, and barely defeated him twice!" "Yeah," Chase stepped in. "Why do you care so much as to whether he is repurposed?" /div

div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961);"A sweeter tone appeared in Bree's voice. "I... I think as evil as he was, he can be given a second chance. After all, Mr. Davenport, you did say everyone should be given a second chance. Marcus should too." "But all he's ever done is hurt us!" an angry Chase yelled. /div

"Bree," he asked, "Are you doing all of this because... you like him?" Bree subordinated into the silence, but Chase took that as an agreement. /div

He only said it loosely because he is a robot." They all looked at each other and thought of all the times that Marcus had been Douglas' son, and every time that he had been told he was their brother. "So... he's not our brother anymore?" Bree shook her head. "Never really was, technically," Donald said. /div

Bree's face emerged with a smile as wide as the Gran Canyon. "I do," she stated, "and actually, before we found out Marcus was evil, I was going to ask him out. I got so nervous that I never even got the chance. But I have it again and I have to take it!" /div

He stepped up to her. "Her reasons are true. As much as I can't imagine it, we might be able to save Marcus." He looks at Donald and Douglas, and then back at Bree. "But you owe us," he continued, "All of us." /div

Also, he used to be super cute, but now he is REALLY ripped thanks to Giselle's upgrade. I hated her, but she made Marcus 10 times better!" Her eyes widened. They all glanced at her crazily. /div

It's nice to see you too," Bree said as her voice faded out. She hugged him so tight, and smiled her beautiful smile again. "Chase, you fixed him? And you're friendly?" "Yup," Chase said. "Yeah," stated Marcus, "Chase was able to give me a human body, genetically engineer it to grow at unusually high rates until this age. I should grow normally now, though. My bionics give me a photographic memory, so I still know who I am." /div

"There's actually something I've been meaning to ask you." Marcus' eyes turned toward Bree. "What?" "Well in all the chaos before, and all the being my enemy and stuff, and, um... Would you like to be my boyfriend?" Marcus looked, both eyebrows raised. "Really?" Bree turned a way for a second before saying, "You don't want to?" /div

Bree smiled and questioned, "Really?" "Yeah," he answered, "Even though you were the enemy to my first mission, I always thought you were really cute, and I just wanted to ask..." Before Marcus could finish, the door to the 110th floor opened, revealing an old face. "Bree?" Jake Chambers asked. "Jake?" /div
