Skylar's Pov.
"So that fighting we did was for nothing? Aw man!" Kaz exclaimed. I slapped his arm.
"No silly. We saved people's lives and that's what's important. Chase what do you mean it was all for nothing?" I asked.
"It was. We may have saved people's lives, but we didn't save our world. The biggest war we may ever face is right on our doorstep," Chase answered. Angie had her chin Chase's shoulder and her arms rapped around him. I don't want to be jealous but I kinda am. Then I look at Oliver. He tries so hard…But I don't even acknowledge him. And Kaz is almost weirder than Oliver, and he almost seems to like Katelyn. Sometimes I don't know what to do.
"What are we gonna do?" Laura asked. Everyone shrugged.
"Well we can't just leave it. Right? We have to do something. Because we're heroes. We may all be different. Some people have bionic powers, some have super powers or elemental powers. Some don't have any, but together we're powerful," I encouraged.
"You're right," Angie said. "But how are we gonna do it? Even with Lloyd's golden power we can't fight them all. He didn't even entirely destroy the Overlord. We just needed that for an advantage."
"I got it!" Douglas exclaimed. We looked at him. "I know it may not help completely, but I could give you all more bionics. You guys, are getting an upgrade," he said pointing at Laura, Angie, Ethan, Eowyn, and Katelyn. They all looked excited.
"What about them?" I asked meaning all the people who don't have bionics or super powers. "I mean Kaz, Oliver and I have super powers, but they don't have anything."
"Well if they want them I'll give them bionics. And we already know that these ninja people have elemental powers or something," Douglas said looking at the Ninja. "Laura, since your powers are um, not entirely useful for battle, unless we're in the sky in a cold environment. I'll give you flame vision and super strength. I know it's not usual for girls, but I mean you're slightly sturdier than the other girls," he said.
"Okay I can go with that," Laura answered.
"Okay Laura, come over here," he said. She walked over and he plugged something into her neck. She winced a little, but other than that it didn't look like it had hurt her. After a minute there was a ding. "Okay the new bionics should be functioning properly. Why do you give them a try," he told her. She turned her eyes towards an old piece of scrap metal that was left over from putting up the lab. I suppose she must think, 'heat vision' or something like that. She fired it and melted the piece of metal.
"That is awesome!" Laura exclaimed.
"Okay now we'll do you Angie. You have invisibility and a blast wave, so you'll get two new powers as well. I'll give you…A sonic scream…And lazar disks. How does that sound?" he asked. Angie nodded excitedly.
"Sounds perfect! Give over," she said and he plugged in the same plug that went into Laura's neck. He typed in a few things and then there was another beep and Angie had her new bionics. He gave Ethan plasma grenades, Eowyn electrokenesis, the ability to create lightning with her hands, and bio thermokenisis, the ability to change body temperature from hot to cold.
All of the powers he gave them were really cool. He also gave Katelyn energy manipulation, the ability to guide energy, like lightning balls or fire balls. Stuff that has a lot of energy. I've never really understood bionics so I can't explain it very well.
Ariel though didn't know about bionics. She knew that they sometimes glitched and she didn't want that to happen.
Katelyn's Pov.
"How bout I give you two bionics?" Douglas asked Ariel. She looked unsure. Lloyd patted her shoulder.
"I'm sure you'll be fine. You're strong. You can take a few bionics," Lloyd told her. She smiled. They definitely liked each other. Ariel nodded in agreement to what Douglas had suggested.
"Okay. Since this is a new experience, and you are nervous about it, I'll let you choose the bionics you want," he said. She nodded and looked at the list of the many bionic abilities she could choose from. After a minute she finally came up with her decision.
"I want super jump, and super intelligence," she said. Douglas nodded, but then said,
"Are you sure you want super intelligence, because Chase has that and…Then you might be like Chase. Now that is something nobody wants," he said. I frowned.
"Hey don't discourage the girl. And Chase is fine. We like Chase, and it doesn't matter what bionics Ariel has, she's still our friend," I told him. He nodded.
"Okay Ariel, this is gonna be a little harder than putting bionics into the other kids, because they already had bionic chips. Here hold still. I'm gonna have to put this thing around your neck, and you are gonna here a beeping sound, and then you'll feel some pressure, and maybe a little sting, but that'll be it," he told her. She nodded and he put this metal thing around her neck and she closed her eyes and held her breath.
He started typing in a bunch of stuff, probably programming the chip, and then he flipped a switch and there was a loud humming noise, and then a beep. Ariel bit her lip and then she took a sharp intake of breath, and it looked like tears were starting to form in her eyes. Then Douglas took off the thingy. Ariel rubbed the back of her neck.
"That was a lot more than a little sting," she complained. We all laughed.
"So, I guess we should start training for the battle," Laura said kinda sadly. "I can't believe we may have brought the downfall of our world," she said. We all sighed. We (me, Ethan, Laura, Angie, and Eowyn) all felt like this was our fault. We were the only ones who had ever traveled to another place, that wasn't supposed to exist. Now, all the things that weren't supposed to, now do, and our world, may fall into ruin.
I am so sorry, I haven't updated in like forever. I had the worst case of writers block.
