Authors Note: Thank you for all the reviews guys! It seriously not only means the world to me but all fanfiction writers. Five reviews may not seem a lot to some of you since I know your stories get 10 reviews per chapter but it means a lot to me but enough sentimental talk, let's actually get onto the story. Also apologies for calling the prologue an epilogue… But it's been fixed thanks to guest who pointed it out!
I do have the next part of Marcus ans Douglas written but I'm just in the process of refining it and editing it!
Also thank you to the guests, NightAngelFalling, ms. nick jonas and Brentinator for reviewing!
"Hey guys how was school?" Mr Davenport, who was sitting at the front, asked as he waited for Bree to come in and sit at the back next to Leo while Adam was at the front. "Thanks so much for waiting for me guys." Bree snarled at Leo, who understood that Bree could be scary and started looking out the window for a distraction but Adam being Adam laughed and said "Welcome!"
Davenport just rolled his eyes. Normally he would have asked what happened but he learnt a long time ago that with Adam, Bree and Leo, not asking was the best for everyone's sanity.
"School was actually not bad! I managed to get a B in my algebra test. Leo got a C and Adam got a D+, which is actually an improvement." Bree smiled to her brother who was looking quite proud of himself. That prompted everyone to give Adam a small round of applause with Davenport laughing and driving away from the school parking lot.
"And we got a bunch of newbies that principal Perry is making us show around. They're not half bad but one of them seems a little boring." Leo chipped in, now wanting to be a part of the conversation, happy that Bree was over being left alone in school.
"New kids, huh? What are their names?" Davenport asked. Some new friends may not be half bad for the trio, might actually keep them busy from fighting each other most of the time.
"Twins. Marcus and Chase Henderson. Marcus doesn't talk much because Chase likes to do all the talking." Bree added in and looked to Davenport. "Which means he'll fit right in with you Mr Davenport." This time both Leo and Adam nodded in agreement and looked to Davenport, hoping for an answer.
Davenport just huffed and let out a nervous laugh awkwardly before rolling his eyes. "Look when you're as handsome and rich as me, you get the right to talk about yourself all the time. And you all can do it too. As soon as you all make a billion dollars." He added in quickly but Bree and Leo managed to hear it and sighed.
"Tell me more about this Marcus and Chase." Just a question that hopefully got the kids distracted before the topic went to him. Adam started. "Chase is short and annoying. Kinda like you Mr Davenport." He smiled before going back to his imaginary world.
Davenport just rolled his eyes at Adam.
"Chase likes to talk a lot too, Marcus is like those mysterious bad boy type person." Bree added in her contribution. "Can we invite them over?" Davenport paused. "Not without clearing it with me first. There's a lot that they could see such as the lab that we don't want them to see."
"Oh and your terrible attempts at yoga. They are just straight up traumatising you know." Adam, Bree and Leo shuddered in memory of seeing it once. The image had not yet been removed from their minds.
"Oh it's not that bad…" Davenport grumbled under his breath, in an attempt to defend himself.
"But on a more serious note, don't bring them back to the house without clearing with it me first in advance." Bree and Leo groaned whereas Adam just looked to Davenport, as confused as ever.
"What's wrong with bringing them back home? Scared that they'll break one of your toys?" Adam asked. That caused a snicker from the back of the car. Davenport once again let out an awkward laugh. "No, it's just that-"Now he had a more serious expression on his face. "Okay yes but seriously, they could find the lab and that's your bionic secret exposed. I'm not saying you can't bring them over, all I'm saying is that be careful when you have them over and clear it with me so I can hide things and make sure all entrances to the lab are out of sight."
Bree and Leo just nodded in annoyance whereas Adam just smiled and stared into space before turning back to face Bree and Leo. "Wait you said that Marcus and Chase are magical elves? What else are you two lying about?"
Leo made an oops sound; Bree just screamed "I need a sister or even a normal brother" and Davenport just sighed. This could be a long ten minutes left till they got back home.
A blur just sped past most people, and from a birds-eye view, it just seemed like two distinct blurs going through the city.
"I'm a genius and so are you Marcus so what's the real reason for this whole little chit chat between me and you. You've always been more action than anything. Talking and diplomacy isn't your thing. No offence." It was no secret to anyone who really knew them that they weren't exactly the tightest of brothers. Chase was always arrogant, and Marcus liked to question everything Chase did. Marcus wasn't exactly next to him, it wasn't long until they were side by side.
"What? I can't have a good chat with my big brother?" Marcus scoffed back, just as sarcastic as Chase had been.
"You mean the same big brother who always kicks your butt in training and missions?" Chase replied, with a roll of his eyes. Their missions were different. And it wasn't their dad who sent them on missions, it was whoever wanted to hire them and do their dirty work. Sometimes they would want the both, sometimes just Chase and sometimes just Marcus. The missions which had a higher chance of damage, their dad would send Marcus, because he had better healing capabilities.
And that money that Douglas made from those hires was how he could afford the lab and all the equipment needed to maintain and enhance their bionics.
"Enough quips otherwise we'll never get to what I wanted to say. That Leo kid is catching up to us. I saw his reaction, he didn't buy us, oh wait I meant you since you never let me talk, he didn't buy your story. Got a plan Mr big bionic brain." Chase just scoffed and rolled his eyes. Leo and Adam were about as smart as bottle of soda.
"Oh relax would you? He was just getting to know us. If I was him I would have done it the same way. Besides I predicted that if any of them have any issues with us, I've got multiple plans in my arsenal that will win them over. Let me do all the thinking." Even though him and Marcus both has super intelligence, it was Chase who was the strategist.
Now that made Marcus annoyed. He could be just as good a strategist, even better perhaps. He had something Chase didn't and that was charm and social skills. And those were useful for being friends with teenagers. Not so much with adults. Which was why Chase thought that he wouldn't need social skills in this plan.
Oh how wrong he was.
"Of course, big brother since you're so smart." Marcus mocked Chase as they continue to ran around California. Chase leaned in too much Marcus but it wouldn't have hurt without his super strength.
"You need super strength to hurt me vaguely and using two abilities at once drains your system and I don't see a capsule nearby to help you recharge." This time it was Marcus' turn to smirk at Chase, who was shooting daggers at Marcus with his eyes.
Deciding to ignore Marcus for now, Chase just continued running forward, he could have revenge later during a training session or something. "I'm just going to go home now. Unless you wanted a chat about something else?" Marcus just smiled and shook his head. "Thought so." And with that the two were off.
Back at the Davenport mansion
"Hey where's mom?" That was Leo's first question when he entered his home and didn't find his mom in the kitchen. "Mom." He called out but still no sign or voice.
"That's because Tasha's going to be working late tonight so I'm in charge." Davenport announced as he walked through the door with Adam and Bree behind them. "So Adam and Bree you guys have training in thirty minutes so don't be late and Leo, homework first then video games." Davenport ordered which just got groans from Bree and Leo but an excited yay from Adam.
After 20 minutes, Leo spoke up. He wasn't doing anything productive but neither were his siblings. Adam was watching cartoons and Bree was just texting… whoever she texted.
"Hey guys, I got a question. Why did Marcus and Chase want to introduce themselves until the end of the day? Like what were they doing that didn't get them to see us on the first moment? And how they did know that we were Adam, Bree and Leo?" Normally, Leo wouldn't have minded if two new people wanted to talk to them, he would be excited for it normally.
But something was just telling him that he shouldn't trust them. Leo knew he wasn't smart. Well he liked inventing things but he was nowhere on Donald Davenport's level yet and if he could start poking holes in their story then he knew that something was wrong. But in return all he got was a scoff by his sister.
"Leo stop worrying about them, alright? And they probably just got lost and thought they wouldn't need us or Perry never told them until minutes before meeting us. And let's see you're the stepson of a billionaire and you're pretty unpopular so they probably guessed that the only people that would be seen talking to you would be us so they figured it. They seem smart anyway." Bree just shrugged. She didn't want to overthink this the way that Leo was.
"Besides I kinda like Marcus, he's funny." Adam added in, turning away from his cartoons and looking at Leo and Bree since he was in the middle of them. "I will say that the guy has nice eyebrows though." Leo nodded his head in agreement with Adam.
Bree looked at her phone clock and sighed. "Come on Adam we've got training to do. Better get down there before Mr Davenport starts screaming like a girl." Adam and Leo laughed before heading down until Bree grabbed Leo's arm.
"Oh no, he'll start screaming when he realises you haven't done or started any of your homework." Bree ordered which earned her a grunt. "You're just worse as mom." But he still went to his room to hopefully get started on his homework which led to Bree speeding down to the lab.
