Hello again! I thought I'd just get the second chapter out, since it is a two part episode. And I also wanted to quickly say that I forgot about the disclaimer, which is kind of important.

So, I don't know Lab Rats, which would explain why I'm writing my version of it. Why does life suck for me?

xXxXx Blake's Pov xXxXx

The next morning, we were all in the lab. I was sitting near Adam, who was in a chair, eating some cheese crackers. Bree was sitting on her usual table next to Bree, while Chase was running around carrying a box, putting random things in it. I paid no attention to him, as my attention was on my hands. The bandages were off today, and my hands were just red and a little flaky, but otherwise, they weren't hurting, something that Adam was thankful for. I wasn't angry or scared of him, since I knew it was an accident, and it was my fault if you thought about it. I angered him to the point of him shooting me with a laser.

"You okay there Blake?" Said bionic teen asked, looking over at me while picking through his little bowl of snacks.

I nodded, "Yeah, just thinking." I told him. To think, I'd never be able to see his goofy face again. That's the weirdest thought ever. I've never thought I'd miss someone's face.

Adam seemed to buy it, but then again, he wasn't the type of person to notice if someone is lying through their teeth. Leo spoke up after he yawned, "What are you doing?" He asked Chase, tiredly. I could understand, since we did fall asleep in the lab last night after sneaking down. I'm glad Davenport didn't catch us.

Chase gave Leo a serious look, "If we're being taken to some remote location, then all of the office supplies are coming too." He stated.

I rolled my eyes, smiling a bit, "Yeah, that's right Chase. Stick it to the man!" I supported, sarcastically. He didn't seem to catch my sarcasm, as he continued his task with a smile. It was sort of pathetic, but I didn't want to legitly crush his spirits. Davenport has done that enough in the past 24 hours.

"We just got our first taste of normal life." Bree stated, from her spot on the table. "I was this close to getting a curfew which I was totally gonna break!" She told Leo, who looked sad, even though her point wasn't really a strong one.

Adam shouted out, scaring me a bit, "Ooh! Maybe when we get to wherever we're going, we'll meet a sassy lab chimp named Bobo who will take us on adventures and teach us how to love." He threw out, looking very satisfied with himself. I chuckled at his positivity, and I couldn't help but think that Adam would follow that monkey all around the world, given the opportunity.

Chase scoffed, "Or maybe you'll make him angry and he'll maul you and snack on your fingers." he suggested. Adam stood up, looking rather ticked.

He pointed at his brother, "Hey! I make the monkey fantasies around here!" he announced, like it was his title. He was ready to fight for it too, it seemed.

"Well, kids, I hope you've enjoyed your stay at 'Casa Davenport.' I know I haven't." Eddy appeared out of nowhere on all of the computer screens, making me groan. Just one day, I ask. One day free from this computer program from hell! "Sayonara!" He blared, before laughing.

Bree sighed, "Eddy, I know we've never been the best of friends, but we're gonna miss you." She stated, sounding actually sincere. I hope she was glitching, because I know she didn't mean that.

Eddy cooed, "Aww, really?"

"No!" "We hate you!" "You're evil!" Adam, Bree and Chase said respectively. I laughed, "Sorry Eddy, you've yet to get on their good side, or mine as well." I told him. He rolled his virtual eyes, "Haha, very funny."

Leo turned to the face, "Where is this 'training facility' anyway?" He asked, using his hand quotes.

Eddy spoke up, "Facility X? Oh it's all the rage." He said, transforming his screen into a picture of a rather tropical island. It looked actually very pleasant, surprisingly. We all made sounds of approval, before Eddy spoke up again, "Whoops, that's my screensaver." He announced, before the island went away and was replaced with a snowy camp with government looking equipment.

Chase looked horrified, "Forget about office supplies! We should be looking for wood." He announced. Leo jumped off the table, looking depressed. I walked over to him.

"Man, I wish we didn't throw that party." Leo said, looking at me. I nodded, "Yeah, I can't help but feel that this is all our fault." I chipped in.

Adam placed a hand on my shoulder, "Oh that's because it was all your fault." He stated, sounding like that should've made me feel better. I raised an eyebrow, "If this is you trying to be helpful, I'd hate to see how you are when you are trying to make things worse." I told him.

Bree hit her brother's arm. "Adam!" She warned, "They were only trying to help us."

He looked defensive, "Yeah, but they ended up doing the opposite, which is not helping us. The not makes it the opposite." He stated, looking smug that he said something smart, or at least smart in his mind. He then went from smug to depressed, "I'm just so bummed. This is the only place we've ever known." He stated.

Chase nodded, "Yeah, just think of all the memories we've shared here." He told his siblings, before all three of them looked off into the distance. I exchanged a look with Leo, who shrugged. I nudged Adam, "Guys, we can't see your flashbacks." I told them.

Leo looked determined, "I can't let Davenport send you guys away." He stated. I sighed, walking to him. "It's no use Leo. When he makes up his mind about something, it's next to impossible to change it." I told him.

He grinned, "Let me talk to him, then. No one can say no to this million dollar smile." He told us, grinning that exact smile. "Be back in a few." he stated, before walking off.

I faced the bio siblings, "So, what now?"

Bree sped over to me, "Well, I was thinking, before I go, I can have one last talk with my new best friend." She stated, hopefully. Chase looked at his sister, offended, "Hey! I wanted to talk with Blake!"

Adam shrugged, "I've talked with Blake a lot. He's actually sort of boring." He told them, before looking to me and winking. "Forward psychic!" He whispered.

I chuckled, "You mean reverse psychology, right?"

He nodded, "Yeah, that's it!" He pointed at me.

I sighed, "Okay, how about we wait until Leo gets back and we can all talk together?" I suggested. They all seemed to agree on that, and before we knew it, Leo came walking back into the lab. We all gave him looks of anticipation before he spoke.

"Well, I'm pretty sure he's gonna think about it." He stated with a confident grin.

The three bio teens got a bit excited, but I knew that it was just false hope. Davenport was stubborn, and it would take a lot more than just Leo pestering him to change his mind. Something huge would have to happen, like an alien abduction or a massive disaster that they could only stop. It wouldn't be happening any time soon.

- An Hour Later -

I sat in the living room, watching as Davenport prepped something from behind a large curtain. I wanted to ask what it was, but I wasn't on speaking terms with my second father at the moment. He ticked me off to the extent where I started to really consider going with Bree, Adam and Chase. But then, Leo would be all alone, and I can't let that happen. I'd rather us be sad together than have him be alone and me be with our new friends.

I had to leave the lab so that they could pack their final things, which made it hurt a little more. I really didn't want them to leave. It wasn't even their fault that things got out of control. It was mine. I caused Adam to burn me, which made me interrupt the cheerleaders and making Bree miss catching one. I then decided to have Leo use his new status to have the party at our house. I should be sent away, not them.

Leo and Tasha walked in, and Davenport spoke with a smile, "Good morning happy family!" He greeted. I walked over to them, crossing my arms with an unamused look on my face.

Tasha looked nervous, seeing the curtain. "What is that?"

Leo gave his mother a depressed look, "Whatever it is, don't get too attached." He stated, before glaring at Davenport. I also sent my own glare at him, wishing that I could have Adam's heat vision. I've never been so mad in my entire life. He looked like he was about to say something, but I beat him to it. "Don't tell us that you know how we feel, because you don't." I spat at him.

He looked hurt, but it served him right. All these years of him being there for me, getting me things that only brains and money could buy, he finally has something I actually want, and he is shipping them off. Yeah, I was angry.

"Blake, you don't have to be angry. I laser scanned their features on to these biosynthetic robots and I programmed them with their core personality traits." He stated, pulling the curtain down, revealing replicas of our friends. They looked blank faced, with no emotion at all. They just stood still, looking just like cold machines. This was his big idea to get me to forgive him? Uh uh, ain't happening. He looked so proud too, like it would've worked.

Leo had the bright idea to knock on Robo-Adam's arm, who then flicked him in the head. When he knocked though, there was an echo from the metal under the fake skin. Davenport smiled, "What do you think?"

Leo gave him a glare, "I think the excitement of having a billionaire dad just wore off." He stated, walking to my side. I still hadn't said anything, and I wasn't planning on it. Until he saw that this was affecting me in a negative way, I wouldn't say anything more. Luckily, I didn't have to, as the real Adam, Bree and Chase came out, looking at their clones with exciting eyes.

Bree actually looked offended, "What are those?" She asked.

I turned to my friends, smiling a really fake smile, "Oh, Dr. Frankenbrain here is trying to replace you with creepy robots." I stated, before glaring back at Davenport. He sighed, pressing a button on his watch.

Robo-Adam's head tilted to the side a bit as he spoke in a monotone voice, "Good morning. The time is 11:22 and the temperature is currently 68 degrees." He stated, moving his head to the side constantly. Like I said, creepy robots.

Adam approached his copy with skeptical eyes, before looking to Davenport, "You made a robot of me that just stands around telling people the time and the temperature?" He asked, like he couldn't believe it.

Davenport nodded, looking really happy and proud. Adam's attitude changed completely at this, "That's the coolest thing I've ever seen!" He announced, hoping to get a high five from his robot. No such luck. Oh Adam and your adorable, simple mind. Wait, adorable? Yeah, it was sort of adorable, like a puppy.

Bree then approached her copy, scanning it with accusatory eyes. "Does my nose really look like that?" She asked.

Her robot replied, "No, yours has a faint mustache underneath." Okay, that was a little funny, and I found myself snickering a bit. Though I stopped once Davenport looked at me. Uh uh, you aren't catching me.

Chase's robot started speaking on it's own, "Hey everyone, I'm Chase." He introduced, sort of sounding like the real thing. "Let's do m-m…" Davenport hit his back, "Math." He finished.

That had me laughing louder, something I couldn't control. Adam even found himself leaning on me for support. Chase announced his disagreements, "That is so not funny."

Adam got off of me, "Ooh you're right! It's fu-fu-fu…" I hit his arm. "Funny!" We all cracked up again, laughing at Chase's expense.

The doorbell rang, interrupting our joke. Davenport went to answer it and there was a serious man in a suit, wearing sunglasses. He looked like a secret agent or something. "Hey Fitz, how's it going?" He asked, not getting a response from the man. "How's life? How's Trix? Alrighty then." He stated, not getting an answer from the man at all. He turned to Tasha, who was right behind him, "You should've seen him at the Christmas party. He's a karaoke master." He stated.

Bree spoke up from where she was next to me, "I guess this is it." She stated, "Thanks for everything you two." She told us. I felt the tears in my eyes starting to well up from behind my eyes.

Chase continued, "Yeah, you're the best friends we've ever had." He stated.

Adam ruined the touching moment, "No, they're the only friends we've ever had." He corrected. I just laughed, grabbing his arm and Bree's.

"Come here you guys." I demanded, pulling them all, including Leo, into a huge hug. I didn't want to cry, but I was sure that as soon as the door closed behind them, the waterfall would appear. We separated, only for Tasha to come over, hugging the three of them. "Oh, remember to bundle up on your deadly missions." She advised.

Me and Leo just watched silently as the three of them broke apart from the hug and walked out the door, each waving to us sadly. Davenport stopped them at the door, "Hey, this is a good thing. Without any distractions, you might finish your training early." He stated. They nodded, but they weren't sure, I knew it.

They turned to face us one last time, waving. The three of us, being Tasha, Leo and I, waved back. Davenport then closed the door, turning to speak to us, before a loud and obnoxious voice blared through the whole house, "Whoo-hoo! They're gone!"

Davenport rolled his eyes, "Eddy!"

The computer corrected himself, "I mean, have a safe trip!" He sang, like he didn't actually care, which I'm sure he didn't. I glared at Davenport, "I hope you're happy now." I spat at him, before walking off towards the kitchen. Maybe some food will help me feel better. Not likely, but it wouldn't hurt to try. I noticed that Tasha and Leo weren't looking too thrilled either, so I guess the whole house was now against Davenport. Yay me!

- That Afternoon -

Leo and I walked into the lab, hoping to find some reminder of our friends, but the only thing there was their robot selves. I was not a fan of the way Robo-Chase looked at me. It was like he wanted to eat my brain or something. "Hello, insert names here, would you like to engage in silly, happy, fun time?" Adam's robot asked.

I rolled my eyes, not amused in the slightest. Leo also looked disgusted, "Get lost. You can't replace my real friends." He told them. I nodded, "Yeah, we really loved those guys." I finished for him.

Robo-Chase walked over to us with clanking footsteps, "Don't be sad Mr. Leo and Mr. Blake. Friends come and go, but robots are forever!" He told us, like it was a good thing. He then grabbed his stomach and then let out a rather disturbing sound. "Dibbly-dibbly! That is my version of a laugh. Dibbly-dibbly!" He informed us.

They started to cram into my personal bubble, so I just snapped, "Would you tin heads get out of here?" I asked/demanded. Seriously, they were so annoying. I walked away from them, facing the original three's chamber tubes. Leo followed, and we started looking over the controls when Chase spoke again. "Sensing human hostility." He blared.

Bree's robot spoke, "Must exterminate!"

Adam's voice then sounded, "Robots attack."

I turned around really fast, scared out of my mind. Leo also did the same, but he was more confused than scared. "Yeah, go robots! Get em!" Eddys voice sounded out. I couldn't say anything as Bree and Chase attacked Leo while Adam's robot picked me up and I was sure he was about to throw me to the ground. "Destroy humans. Destroy humans." They all announced, like they were given orders to do this.

Leo and I let out terrified screams, with me trying to struggle out of Robo-Adam's arms and Leo being pushed and dragged around by Robo-Bree. "Guys! Guys!" I heard Bree's voice sound out. "It's us!" She said.

We both stopped struggling, with me looking into Adam's eyes from me being carried bridal style. I looked at him confused, "Eh?" I let out.

Chase nodded, "We told the driver that we forgot something and then we swapped the robots in our place." He explained, looking excited.

Adam, still holding me, looked to me and Leo, "You said you loved us!" He sang, making kissing noises at me. I rolled my eyes, not happy. I raised a hand and slapped him right across the face, the sound of skin against skin echoing all around the lab. He looked at me in shock, "OW!" He exclaimed, ready to hold his face in pain.

I grinned, "It is you guys!" I announced, wrapping my arms around his neck and burying my head in his shoulder. I felt bodies being pressed against me, so I was sure that the other three joined in on our hug. It lasted a good minute before they let go of us. I was ready to get up, but Adam was still holding me. "Uh, Adam, you can let me go now." I told him.

He shrugged, "I don't know, you're like a little baby like this." He made more kissing sounds. I held my hand up, "I'll slap you again." I threatened. He let go of me immediately, making me fall to the floor, but I landed on my feet. I dusted myself off with a rather red face, sort of embarrassed that they tricked me and Leo.

Speaking of, he spoke for the first time since this new revelation, "Wait, what about Davenport?"

Adam shrugged, "Oh we just have to act like dumb robots every single time he's around." He said, like it was so obvious.

Of course, Davenport had excellent timing, since he walked in right at that moment. Our friends went stiff and into their usual robot positions. "Hey you two." He said, smiling. We gave him a fake and guilty smile back. I couldn't be angry now, since my friends were still here, so I kinda had to be happy.

I waved, "Hey Big D! What's shaking?" I asked. Did I mention I'm horrible under pressure? No? Well I am.

Davenport looked very confused, "Uh, what are you doing buddy?" He asked me. I shrugged, "Just enjoying my time with my robotic, not really people, awesome friends." I told him, leaning on Chase's shoulder. He let out a small grunt of pain, to which I felt sort of sorry for. I did just elbow him right in the collarbone.

Leo continued our lie, "Ain't no party like a robot party cuz a robot party don't stop!" He sang, dancing to his little jingle. It actually was rather catchy for being right on the spot.

Davenport looked relieved, "See, I told you two that you'd like them." He stated, walking behind us.

I scoffed, "Like them? We love them!" I told him, getting off of Chase's shoulder. Adam of course, went to doing his kissing face again, mocking me. Leo put his hand to his neck, signalling him to knock it off. Davenport, luckily, didn't see it, as Adam went stiff just as he looked.

"You know the greatest thing about robots is?" He asked, with Leo looking very curious. Davenport had some stick in his hand, which confused me. "They are virtually indestructible." He answered his own question. "Watch this." He pressed a button on the stick and poked Adam with it. Surges of electricity zapped all the way around Adam's body, but he kept a straight face, not letting the pain get to him that much. I winced for him.

"Why'd you do that?" I asked.

Davenport laughed, "It's okay! He can't feel a thing." He then poked Adam again, making an even larger surge of energy go throughout Adam's body. He laughed, "They are so incredibly life like!" He announced, before going to electrocute Chase, who wasn't so good at hiding his human side. He looked like a cat having a seizure.

He went to shock Bree, but she smiled, "Don't even try it." She spoke, using her robot voice. I smirked. Good for her, using her robot disguise to her advantage.

Davenport grinned, "Ooh, you're a feisty robot, aren't you?" He teased, walking back over to me and Leo. He offered the stick to me, to which I grabbed it, not wanting to let the lie fall apart. I pressed the button and turned to Adam. I mouthed out sorry to him, which he winked at me, though Davenport didn't notice it. I quickly poked him with it and moved it away from him, not wanting to shock him that much for his third time.

I laughed nervously, watching him twitch. Leo grabbed the stick from me and pressed it to Davenport himself. He laughed, "You're right, that was fun!" He offered a smile to his friends, as Davenport groaned on the ground. Our friends all returned grateful smiles.

I helped Davenport off the ground, as he started to limp out of the lab. "I'm gonna go lie down." He stated, walking right out of the lab.

As soon as the doors closed, Adam, Bree and Chase went back to normal. I placed a hand on Adam's shoulder, "Sorry about that." I apologized.

He shrugged, "Eh, I've been through worse in training." He stated, shaking his head a bit, smiling.

Chase spoke up, "I can't believe you did that to Mr. Davenport." He told Leo. I couldn't help but agree, since Leo risked getting in serious trouble just now.

Leo raised an eyebrow, "He kind of deserved it, didn't he?" He asked. We all nodded, accepting this answer. Bree took the opportunity to pull me aside, hugging me. I raised an eyebrow, wondering what the heck brought this on.

When she pulled away from me, I raised an eyebrow, "Okay, I'm still happy to see you're still here, but what was that for?" I asked.

She smirked, "Well, I'm just in a hugging mood, and I needed a way to get you alone." She stated, looking rather devious. I was kind of scared, because while Adam was not the smartest and Chase was, Bree was a combination of both, so she could come up with anything.

"Why?" I asked, hesitation evident in my voice.

Bree giggled, "I saw that hug you gave Adam." She told me. I raised an eyebrow, "Uh, yeah, so did Chase and Leo, big deal."

She rolled her eyes, "Oh come on, that wasn't no regular hug. That was a Jack and Rose hug, like he was going to disappear on you." She stated, winking at me. My face heated up at what she said, not from it being true, but because it was kind of embarrassing.

"Wha-? No, Bree! You are crazy!" I stated, flustered.

She smirked, "Then why are you blushing." She asked.

I crossed my arms, huffing. "I don't like Adam." I told her, my face still probably redder than ever. Bree shrugged, "Okay, keep telling yourself that. But I have eyes." She told me, before going over to her siblings and Leo.

I scoffed at what she said. Yeah, I hugged Adam with a death grip, but only because he was holding me and I didn't want to fall, but I also wanted to hug him. That didn't mean I liked him. It just meant I was happy that he wasn't gone, and he was the nearest at the time. If Bree were near me, or even Chase, I would've hugged them, but Adam was the one closest. Besides, I only knew them for about two days, so I couldn't form any type of feeling towards them yet. I mean, besides the love for a friend, but that's different. I wasn't crushing on Adam, that's for sure.

- The Next Morning -

After yesterday's whole fiasco, we all had a sleepover in the lab, once again. For the first time I think ever in their lives, Adam, Bree and Chase slept outside of their tubes. Mostly due to the fact that Davenport disengaged them, so that they wouldn't work anymore, unless he turned them back on, which wasn't gonna be happening at all soon. But it was nice. We all hung out some more, still getting over the fact that we tricked Davenport into thinking they were actually robots. The only issue I think there was, were the constant smirks Bree would give me whenever Adam was around me. I didn't pay much attention to them, since I knew they were way off in theory.

But, now, it was time for school. Yesterday, Davenport and Tasha thought that it would've been best for us to take the day off, because it was an emotional day, but now we had to go back. But now, we were sure that we could bring them to school with us this time. There weren't going to be any pep rallies and dingo costumes this time, that's a definite.

Me and Leo raided the fridge, looking for a quick breakfast for our friends. We wanted to get out of there as fast as possible, so Tasha and Davenport don't catch us and make it so we can't bring the 'robots' to school. I pulled out a package of bread, "Okay, Adam, for breakfast, you get wheat bread with a side of sugar packets." I told him, handing the bag to him, along with the small paper packages. He grinned, "Yes, my favorite!" He cheered, making me chuckle. Such an innocent little mind for such a big guy.

Leo spoke up, "Bree, you get two old wings and a drumstick from The Chicken Shack." He handed her a box of leftovers. She seemed happy with it.

I saw Leo about ready to hand Chase over a banana peel, so I stopped him. I handed him another banana, "Here, have an actual banana." I told him, before looking to Leo, "You were going to have him eat a peel?" I asked him.

He shook his head, "You don't eat it! You just suck on it until the flavor is gone." He informed me, like he's done it before. I'm sure he has, since Leo was a pretty strange kid.

They were all about ready to dive into their 'breakfasts' when Tasha walked in, "Leo, Blake, good morning." She stated, grabbing a coffee mug out of a cabinet. I turned to our 'robots' to see them stiffen up just in time. I mentally sighed in relief, looking to Tasha, "Morning." I greeted.

Leo walked over to his mother, "Mom, look at you! In the kitchen!" He stated, since it was an obvious fact. "We are just having a healthy breakfast." He informed her. I leaned on the counter, eating my own apple, nodding.

Tasha laughed, amused, "Guys, you know they're robots." She said, "They don't eat." She then went into the refrigerator, facing away from our friends. I gave them the signal and they started stuffing their faces with the food we gave them. I then gave them the 'stop' signal when she turned around again. It was funny, since Chase had a look of a chipmunk, Bree was in mid bite and Adam had a piece of bread sticking out of his mouth.

"Tasha, we were thinking that today might be a good day to bring to school with us." I told her.

Bree broke character by shouting, "Yes!" When I gave her a look, along with Tasha and Leo, she froze up again, "I mean, bee-dee-beep. Bee-dee-beep." She made a bunch of robot sounds. I sighed in relief when Tasha seemed to buy it.

"You aren't taking robots to school." Tasha told us, sternly, placing a hand on her son's shoulder, "And besides, Leo, your teachers already think you're a little weird." She informed him.

Leo raised an eyebrow, "How do you know that?"

"Because on your last report card it said 'We think Leo's a little weird!'" She told him. I chuckled, and I could've sworn the bio teens snickered a bit.

Leo looked dejected, "Mom!" He whined.

She wasn't having any of it, "Go to school!" She pointed to the door. We both sighed, giving in. She was technically the woman of the house now, so we kind of had to listen to her. We walked around to the other side of the counter. Our friends, still in their statue like forms, turned around in their seats. "You all stay out of trouble until we get back, okay?" Leo confirmed.

They each gave us slight nods as Tasha watched us with what I can only assume to be judgemental eyes. Hey, they aren't really robots, so if you knew the truth, you wouldn't judge, lady!

"Hug it out." I told them, and we all gave a really stiff group hug to each other. It was actually really awkward. I heard Bree whisper in my ear, "Adam." She sang.

I separated first, grabbing my bag off the couch, "Let's go Leo." I told him, not wanting to deal with it right now. Bree needed to drop the whole Adam thing or it's gonna be a long friendship.

- After School -

Me and Leo ran into the house, excited and happy. The day we had was actually pretty good. I didn't run in with Trent today, and Leo still seemed to have some sort of reputation from Monday. Meeting up after last period, we decided to race home and the last one here had to get hit by Adam, which was a bet we didn't want to lose.

Tasha and Davenport were in the kitchen, so we ran over to them. We dropped our bags on the floor along the way. "Where are the robots?" I asked, out of breath.

Leo nodded, grinning, "We ran all the way here, and we weren't even being chased." He explained, as Davenport handed each of us a glass of water. We each took a long drink as Tasha spoke.

"Guys, the robots are gone. We just dropped them off at the recycling plant." She explained. Leo and I looked at each other, before spitting out the contents of our mouths all over the kitchen counter. "You what?!" We asked them at the same time.

Davenport nodded, "Yep, they're being melted down as we speak." He said, like it was a good thing. "Don't tell anybody, but they're probably toxic." He laughed nervously.

We both shook our heads, looking all panicky. "No! We have to go get them!" I cried. Leo nodded, "They're not robots, they're real!" He explained, bouncing off my sentence.

Tasha looked to her husband, "Okay, this is why I didn't want those things around." She told him, "They're delusional!" She whispered the last part.

"No!" We cried at the same time, "They really are Adam, Bree and Chase! You've got to believe us, there isn't much time!" Leo shouted. His mother placed a hand on his shoulder, "Leo, stop!" She scolded.

Davenport walked around to talk to us. "Guys, when I was your age, I had to say goodbye to a lot of my friends. There was LavaMan and Stretch Legstrong and Jojo Briggs and all his friends in the space canteen." He listed.

I rolled my eyes, "Those are all action figures!" I told him.

"More like fully posable pieces of my heart." He choked, looking like I kicked a puppy in front of him. I scoffed, watching him leave as Tasha followed him. I looked to Leo, "If they aren't going to help, then we have to go save them." I told him.

He nodded, "Yeah, let's go."

We ran out the door, running as fast as we could until we actually reached the recycling plant. Jeez, we were doing a lot of running today. You'd think we'd be in tiptop shape, right?

Reaching the building was easy, but getting to where Bree, Chase and Adam were was going to be difficult. "Leo, what do we do?" I asked, looking around.

He also studied our surroundings, before grinning, "Over there! Hide in that truck!" He suggested, running over to said truck. It was moving fast, so we had to be quick. Jumping in first, I turned and grabbed Leo, pulling him in. It was gross and smelly in the truck, but we didn't have to be in there long, as we soon were dumped, landing hard on a metal slab. I held my head, "Ooh, that didn't feel too good." I moaned.

I looked around, seeing that Leo and I were in some sort of chute. There was a crusher slamming down from the ceiling, another crusher that closed in like a wall with spikes, and then there was a tall wall of fire. And of course, luck would have it for us that Adam, Bree and Chase were already at the end of this weird gauntlet of death. They all gave us looks of disbelief, "Blake? Leo?" Adam called.

Leo looked angry, "No, it's Oprah and Queen Latifah! Get us out of here!" He shouted, sarcastically.

Just then, Davenport came out of the door behind the three teens, making me groan. As if we didn't have enough problems. "Mr. Davenport!" I heard Bree exclaim.

"Hello, we are robots!" I saw Adam pretend to be a robot once again, making me roll my eyes. "ADAM! NOW IS NOT THE TIME!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.

He looked to me, "Hey, he knows now! Thanks Blake!" He yelled back. I just stuck my tongue out at him. Yes, real mature, but hey, it was an impulse. Another impulse was flinching when hot steam was shot at us. I yelped, not yet recovering from my burns on my hands. The walls then started moving, pushing us towards the giant crusher, and lets just say that we, being Leo and I, didn't hesitate to try and push the wall back. It wasn't working, but hey, we gotta try something, right?

We hardly could pay attention to anything else, until it started raining trashbags and bionic teenagers. Yep, you read that right. Bree, Adam and Chase stood up from the pile of garbage, with Adam grinning, "That never will get old." He cried, excited.

"What are you two doing here?" Chase asked us.

I rolled my eyes, "Oh we just decided that life was too hard for us, so hey, let's take on a recycling plant obstacle course of mad destruction!" I told him, yelling as my sentence went on, so that by the time I finished, I was full blown screaming.

Leo corrected my sarcasm, "We came to save you."

Adam gushed, "Aww, thanks, but we're good." He said, smiling, "What sweet kids." he told his siblings. Uh, Adam, hello, I am a year younger than you and you also act like the biggest five year old I know, so don't be calling us kids.

Bree decided enough chit chat, "Come on, let's do this!" She announced.

Chase nodded, "Okay, Blake, Leo, hold on to Adam. We're gonna surround you and then we're all going to get through this together, okay?" He asked. We nodded, grabbing hold of each other Adam's arms. "Okay, in 3...2…" Chase started to countdown, but Leo interrupted.

"Hey, what's that?" He asked, walking to the side of the wall and pressing a large red button. All of a sudden, every single bit of machinery, including the wall, stopped moving.

Chase sighed, "That would be the off button."

Adam nodded, "Yeah!" He confirmed, turning to his brother and sister, "Oh, you guys didn't see that?" He asked.

I gritted my teeth together, "Can we get out of here please?" I asked, using the sickly sweet part of my voice to show that I was happy, but yet I was very annoyed at the moment. I don't like almost being a crushed pile of Blake.

They all agree and we ran towards Tasha and Davenport at the end of the now safe gauntlet, where we all were hugged and greeted with happiness, for about five seconds. Davenport the Dictator then ordered us to march straight home to the mansion, so the celebration lasted longer than I thought. Go team, I guess.

- An Hour Later -

We walked into the house, groaning from the long walk. It seemed a lot shorter when you run. Eddy appeared, and he looked like he was ready to talk, but I walked over to his screen and slid my finger across it, "No." I stated, watching as he shut down. There was no way I was gonna deal with a virtual pain in the ass after the day I just had.

"I don't know what you kids were thinking, pulling a stunt like that." Davenport told us, starting his next lecture. "You could've seriously hurt yourselves."

Adam laughed, "Yeah, but you've got to admit that," He stopped mid sentence to change his voice, "My robot accent was dead on." He joked, moving his arms again like a robot. I sighed, happy that he remained the same Adam, even though he might've taken one too many garbage bags to the head.

"Can we bring him back to the recycling center?" Chase asked, or actually, it sounded more like pleading. Adam stuck his tongue out, moving his head side to side like he was dancing. It seemed like he wanted to go back, but there wasn't any way I would let that happen. Nope, no more garbage to that face.

Tasha turned to her son, "Leo, why didn't you tell us that Adam, Bree and Chase were still here?" She asked.

He sighed, "Because I was trying to protect my friends." He then turned to Davenport, walking right up to him, "And I'm still gonna protect them." He stated, with confidence. I stood up next to him, crossing my arms, glaring at him.

"This time I'm serious. I go if they go." I told him, being really honest. I'd sneak into one of their large travel bags if I had to. There was no way I'd let them go after all this, na-uh!

"It's go time little man!" Leo threatened, looking ready to start a fight. "It's not about the size of the dog that counts, it's the size of the fight in the dog. And there's a lot of fight in this little doggie!" He announced, starting bounce all over the room, holding his fists up. When he came towards me, I grabbed his shoulders, holding him down. "Easy there Rocky." I warned.

"Guys, calm down! They're not going anywhere!" Davenport spoke, raising his voice. I glared at him, "Oh you don't...wait, what?" I asked, mid sentence. Did he just say what I think he just said?

"Watching you guys risk your lives for each other made me realize that I've focused more on training the super human side of you and not enough on the human side." Davenport explained himself.

Adam smiled, "Aww!" He then turned to his siblings, "I don't get it."

"You're teenagers, and bionic or not, you deserve to experience teenager things, like school, and classes and cell phones." He listed. Bree stood up, excited.

"Yes! A cell phone! I'm living the dream!" She did a little dance. Davenport shook his head, "Yeah, you're not getting a cell phone." He deadpanned. I only could agree with that. Bree would break the budget with phone bills. "But what I can give you is one more chance." He finished. "Maybe there's a way that you can live here, go to school and train for missions." He stated, thinking a bit.

They all stood up, "Are you serious?" Asked Chase.

I walked up to Davenport, "So they can stay?"

He turned me around, "On one condition. No one can ever find out about your bionics. And you have to control your emotions so you don't glitch." He stated, sternly.

I only could beam as they answered. "Done!" "Okay." "Absolutely!"

Davenport smiled, "Alright then, welcome home." He stated.

We all cheered in celebration, though once again, it didn't last long. Adam apparently got way too excited and some bursts of energy came flying out of his hands. I hit the floor, just as the chandelier landed where I used to stand. He hit the table and it was instantly destroyed. We all looked at Adam, who smiled sheepishly, and then to Davenport. "He has plasma grenades?" Leo asked. "My life just got a whole lot better."

I nodded in agreement. Davenport just shook his head with a smile, "I better get to fixing that." He told us, gesturing to the table. "You kids go to the lab and Chase, start up the chambers again. We'll be needing them for training." He told us.

We all nodded, going with what he told us, for once. I let the four others go before me, as I looked back to Davenport, "Um, Uncle Davenport?" I started, turning into the shy boy I knew was trapped inside me. "I'm sorry for what I said the other day, about you being a creep." I told him. "I was just angry and I thought someone else I cared for was gonna get taken away from me, and I just wanted to stop it."

He came over to me, holding my shoulders, "Blake, I get it. I completely understand why you said those things. Especially with what happened a year ago. You don't have to apologize." He told me, before smiling, "Now, go and hang with your new cousins, okay?" He suggested, and I nodded, smiling. It was times like this that I kind of am glad that he's my uncle, or at least he was to me.

- In the Lab -

When I got down to the lab, my new friends were all still super excited. It was only natural, since our plans, though very flawed, ended up working, in a weird and twisted way. I watched in amusement as Leo rode around on Adam's back, letting out battle cries, and Chase, though programming the chambers, looked super thrilled. Bree was doing a little dance that was super awkward, but I couldn't judge, since she was happy. "Hey guys, you start the party without me?" I asked, smirking.

They all stopped what they were doing and grinned at me. I should've seen what was coming, but I didn't. My mind was clouded over with happiness. So, when they all tackled me, creating a large dog pile, it caught me a little by surprise. I still laughed though and we all fell into a comfortable silence as everyone rolled off of me and onto their backs, our heads forming a circle, just looking at the ceiling.

Adam spoke first, "So, now that we can leave the lab, does that mean we get actual food?" He asked.

I laughed, "Yeah, and it can be something other than bread with sugar." I told him, jokingly.

Bree chimed in next, "I finally can have my high school dreams come true!" She announced, hugging herself.

Leo sighed, "This is what I'm talking about. Just relaxing, not worrying about anything, and there isn't anything that could go wrong."

Chase spoke, "Well, Eddy could always appear now." He quipped.

Leo just held his finger out, "Shh, don't ruin the moment."

We all laughed again.

xXxXx No One's Pov xXxXx

Up in the living room, while the kids were downstairs, Tasha and Davenport were cleaning up the mess Adam accidentally made. Tasha broke the silence, "Donald, I'm worried about Blake." She stated.

He looked at his wife with confused eyes, "Why's that?"

She sighed, "You heard him just now, right? He's still grieving over his parents." She told him. "And he still doesn't know the full truth." She added.

Donald Davenport shook his head, "And I don't want him to know. If he found out, his already fragile state would dramatically decline and I don't want that to happen. Maybe Bree, Adam and Chase can provide him with some sort of stability." He offered.

Tasha didn't look all that convinced, "Are you sure?" She asked. She already loved Blake like a second son, so she was really worried. After finding out his backstory from Donald, she felt a little bit protective over him. No child should ever have to go through that.

Donald walked over to his wife, kissing her forehead, "Yeah, I'm positive. He'll find out when he's ready." He told her. "But for now, we keep it a secret."

So, yeah, this is the second installment. I hope you like it, and yeah, review! I love them, even though I'll continue publishing without them.
