Welcome to my newest story! This takes place post On The Edge. So Leo is a mentor, Taylor is blind, Giselle is on the loose, and Donald's ego is still huge.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
"But Mr. Davenport, as long as Giselle is still out there, she's a threat!" Bree shouted, frustrated that no one seemed to be taking her seriously. She stood in the common area, trying to convince her father and uncle of the lurking threat.
"Bree, I said no," Donald said firmly.
"Plus, she's injured, and without her android army, she can't do anything," Douglas added.
"But she has just vanished! We have no idea what she could be plotting. Giselle is a mastermind, she's already proven that. She could be working to hurt us while we just sit around and ignore the threat!" Bree argued.
"Bree, we are done discussing this," Donald sighed. "I don't want to here one more word about Giselle,"
"Fine!" Bree huffed, stomping out of the common area.
Watching her leave, Douglas leaned back against the wall and crossed his arms.
Donald glanced over at his brother. "What?"
"I am just thinking that maybe Bree has a point. Every time you let an enemy get away, they just come back and cause trouble. Including me," Douglas pointed out.
"You aren't seriously trying to talk me into letting Bree go hunt down Giselle are you?" Donald asked.
"Of course not," Douglas smirked. "Giselle is a dangerous maniac, I don't want any of the kids near her. But I do think we need to make sure she doesn't come around again,"
"And how do you suggest we do that?" Donald asked.
"I say that we need to first track her down and see where she is and what she is up too," Douglas started, "And if she is anywhere near here, we take her out, simple,"
Donald raised an eyebrow. "Take her out? I though you were infatuated with Giselle,"
"You know it's complicated," Douglas murmured, looking towards the ground.
Donald sighed in realization and reached out to comfort his brother. "Is this about Sa-"
"What do you think?" Douglas snapped. He then took a deep breath after seeing his brother flinch away from him. "Sorry, I guess, I'm just not over what happened,"
"No one says that you should be, losing a child is something that no one-"
"Donald, I really don't feel like talking about it," Douglas interrupted.
"Sorry," Donald muttered.
Douglas shrugged it off. "I need to run to the mainland for a few things, be back in a bit," he said.
"See you later," Donald called after him, hoping Douglas didn't get himself into any trouble.
In the next room over,
Finally it was 12:15, Adam's favorite time of the day.
"Lunch time," Adam smiled to himself, loading up his plate with some of the weirdest food combinations imaginable.
The only downside to today was, that with the recent schedule change, Adam no longer had lunch at the same time as his bionic bros. Only a few other advanced students had lunch at this time, most of them geniuses huddled around a table discussing, well, Adam wasn't exactly sure, something about string maybe?
The other nearby table only had a single student, whom Adam surprisingly recognized.
"Hey, Spikette! Aren't you the girl who managed to beat me up?" Adam asked.
"Actually Adam, my name is Kate," She corrected.
Adam raised an eyebrow. "But Chase said your name was Spikette, and you were super strong, how come I don't have you in any of my classes then?"
"Because I don't usually have super strength. Spikette is my commando app, just like Spike is Chase's. Spikette has super strength, I don't," Kate explained as Adam nodded, actually intently listening to her, setting his tray down and sitting across from her.
"Do you still have your commando app?" Adam asked.
Kate shook her head. "Nope, Douglas took it off of my chip. But he did give me a sonic scream ability instead,"
Adam grinned. "That sounds pretty cool, have you used it yet?"
"Just once, on Chase," Kate replied with a small smile. "Just to get my point across,"
Adam chuckled. "Sounds fun,"
"Well, it seems like he learned his lesson," Kate giggled before taking another bite of her lunch.
"You like pizza with apple sauce on top!" Adam gasped, amazed.
Kate bit her lip, blushing slightly. "Yeah, I know it probably seems disgusting,"
"No, it's amazing!" Adam marveled. "It's one of my favorite combinations!"
"Well, have you ever tried a pepperoni and peanut butter sandwich?" Kate asked.
Adam's eyes widened in amazement. "No, I've never even thought of that!"
Kate cut her sandwich in two and handed him one of the halves. "Try it,"
The moment Adam bit into the sandwich, his eyes became wide with amazement. "This is one of the best sandwiches I have ever had!"
Kate grinned. "I'm glad you like it. I thought I was the only person here who liked mixing foods,"
Adam smiled to himself. Maybe this schedule change wasn't a horrible thing after all.
Later, in the training area,
"Where is Logan? He's over five minutes late," Taylor groaned.
"Relax, odds are he just got lost again. He'll make his way here soon enough," Leo speculated. "Why don't we just start without him?"
"Sure," Taylor replied.
"Okay, so we haven't touched base with your molecular kinesis for a while-"
"Got it," Taylor said excitedly, walking meticulously to the training equipment.
"Careful there, those are over 4,000 pounds worth of weights," Leo warned when he saw he lifting the set over 6 feet in the air with her molecular kinesis.
You couldn't tell through her glasses, but Taylor rolled her eyes. "I know Leo, it's fine,"
"Taylor!" Leo screamed.
Taylor swung her head around, not sensing anything around her. "What?"
"Yo-Your arm!" Leo called, seeing the multitude of colors flash along her arm. "I think it is glitching!"
Taylor gritted her teeth. Her arm felt as if it were asleep, so when she moved her limp a pain of pins and needles washed over her.
"Taylor, put it down," Leo said quickly.
"Yeah, yeah, okay," Taylor murmured, managing to set the weights down before she collapsed into unconsciousness.
"Help!" Leo screamed frantically. "Someone come, something is wrong! Help!"
Even as he tried to wake her, Taylor remained out cold. "This isn't can't just glitch," Leo murmured.
So, what do y'all think of Chapter 1? Please review and tell me what you think. ~AzulaTano
