There was a crash from one of the tables in the command center and Billy sighed as he turned to find one of his creations smashed against the ground.
A red clad teen stood over it with a sheepish look on his face. "Oops..."
"Conner McNight!" The adult Kim stomped over and hauled him away from the broken object. "I swear, I can't take you anywhere." She placed her hands on her hips and glared at him. "Now say your sorry and go sit down." When it looked as though Conner was going to argue she stopped him with a finger in his face. "No. Now say you're sorry. And don't touch anything else."
"Fine." Conner replied, when he realized she wasn't going to leave his side until he did so. He went over to Billy and put on his very best shame-faced look. "I'm very sorry that I broke your..." He trailed off and looked at the pile of metal and wire on the floor. "Doohickey."
"It's okay." Billy hid a grin behind his hand as he watched the pint-sized adult haul the very tall Conner off and forced him onto a chair.
"Now don't touch anything." She paused in front of the chair for a moment. "You know what don't move. Don't even look at anything." The adult Kim walked off mumbling, "I leave you alone for five minutes."
Conner just sighed and settled back in his chair, muttering under his breath.
Kim couldn't hear what Conner was mumbling, but apparently the young genius was with in earshot because he suddenly looked at Conner with a puzzled expression and asked, "Napoleonic power monger?"
