Chapter 9

A while later Isabella and the other girls had gotten there all ready. "You all took forever," Adam said.

"Sorry, we're girls what do you expect?" Isabella said with a shrug.

"Tempest is a girl and she's been done," Adam said.

Tempest shrugged. "That's debatable. This is the first time I've ever been shopping so…"

"Don't worry we'll get you into it,"Isabella said smiling.

"Sheesh, you'll get me into shopping, you'll get me to recognize sarcasm, you already got me to shower, what's next?" Tempest asked.

"The ability to fly," Adam said.

Tempest cracked up. "Now that I wouldn't mind."

"Well, when I figure that out I'll let you know," Adam said.

"You would be the most amazing person in the world if you did that." Tempest said with a smile. "So, should we go?"

"Yeah the others were getting ready when I left," Adam said.

"Alright then, let's get going then." Tempest said standing up.

"Who wants to teleport back?" Adam asked.

"Is that the option you're taking?" Tempest asked.

"Yeah, I am I'll enjoy the ride to the lake." Adam said.

"I'll take that option then." Tempest said with a smile

"Okay, anyone else?" Adam asked pulling out his teleporter. Surprisingly, no one else did. "Oh, alright see you girls there," Adam said teleporting himself and Tempest away.

The rest of the girls got into the car and headed over.


When Adam and Tempest arrived James called out, "That's everything get into swim suits!"

Adam and Tempest went and got their swimsuits on along with everyone else that was there.

"So, Adam where's this new girlfriend Kyle tells us about?" Phineas asked.

"She's the girl I came in with, her name is Tempest." Adam told him since she had already headed off to get changed.

"I didn't see her," Phineas said.

"How did you not see her?" Adam asked in surprise.

"We were packing things and I got stuck between the speakers," Phineas said

"Oh, well, you'll meet her when she comes out." Adam reminded.

"Oh yeah!" Phineas said.

They headed into their rooms to get their trunks on.

"So, Ferb I have seen less of you lately," Adam said and it was true Ferb had just got back from a trip back to Britain and had been acting a little different lately Ferb turned slightly red but didn't say anything. "What's wrong?" Adam asked quieter.

"Well, there's this girl back in Britain who was my absolute best friend, her name is Emily Kinney." Ferb started.

"Emily Kinney?" Adam asked since Ferb clearly did not want the others to hear.

Ferb nodded, "I saw her back there but she was acting kind of weird."

"Emily Kinney, why does that name ring a bell?" Adam asked. Ferb shrugged not knowing any way he would know her.

"Wait, is she a blue blonde girl about my height give or take a few inches?" Adam asked. Ferb nodded wondering how he knew her. "Oh have I got a surprise for you follow me!" He said leading Ferb to the computer room.

"You have a talented friend there Ferb, in fact she's Britain Firestorm Bases best Operative two years running now and rookie of the year last year as well," Adam said shocking Ferb by bringing up her picture and bio.

"That's why she was acting weird." Ferb said staring at the screen, everything suddenly clicking. "She obviously couldn't say anything because she didn't know about my own involvement."

"Exactly, but there is a bit of good news," Adam said.

"Which is?" Ferb asked.

"She's coming to us as it is felt she belongs with the best," Adam said.

"That's perfect." Ferb said actually looking and sounding excited.

"Ferb, you sound like you like this girl... like more than a friend like," Adam said

"That's ridiculous, I'm dating Gretchen, remember?"

"I know, but emotions are not black and white trust me," Adam said.

Ferb sighed blushing. "Maybe a little."

"Well then I suggest you figure out your feelings otherwise people can minipulate them," Adam said bitterly. Ferb nodded knowing that. "Good," Adam said.

"We should get changed though." Ferb pointed out.

"I am changed." Adam said.

"Well, I'm not." Ferb said before leaving. Adam sighed as he followed wondering if he had just helped or hurt Ferb.


After a short time, everyone was changed and ready. "Adam there you are," Tempest said as she walked around the corner in her swim suit

Adam turned to her and his jaw practically hit the ground as well as everyone but the girls (since they already saw it), "T-Tempest, you look… wow." Adam stuttered rubbin the back of his neck.

Tempest blushed, but smiled. "Thanks Adam, glad you like it," She said stopping in front of him.

"That's Tempest?" Phineas asked in awe. "How was a girl like that avalible?"

Tempest giggled. "Simple, hide her in about a dozen layers of dirt and under a giant tumbleweed."

"Wait, what?" James asked having recovered as well.

Tempest turned to James and said in more of a hiss. "You were there, you helped Adyson 1 kill my brother. You know what I mean."

"Oh, I'm sorry," James said shocked that was the same girl.

"Wait, what?" Phineas asked in shock having heard the thing about her brother.

"It's a long story and does not need to be talked about right now. So lets get going," Adam said and the others nodded.

"So, which way are we going?" Tempest asked.

"By RV, I think," Adam said.

"Perfect then, let's go." Tempest said taking his hand. She lead him into the RV sat him down on the nearest seat and sat down in his lap. "Ah, comfy." She said.

"Maybe he had wanted you so badly because your part cat." Adam concluded jokingly making sure only she could hear as he ran his fingers through her hair. "That has the potential to come in handy."

"Oh haha," She said snuggling into him. "I could move if you want?"

"Why on earth would I want that?" He asked wraping his arm around her.

"Exactly, so keep quiet," She said smiling.

"You don't like it?" Adam asked continuing to running his fingers through her hair.

"I never said that," Tempest said leaning into his hand.

"Then why'd you tell me to keep quiet?" He asked.

"I'm not part cat, I just like to be held and happen to be flexible is all," She said.

"And you really seem to love this." Adam said running his fingers through her hair. "Which is kind of like being pet."

"Well, if you put it that way.." She said leaning into him more

"And you're ok being incredibly dirty, or at least were. You just need pointy ears and a tail."

"Hey," She fake whined

"Well, and you'd have too be less cute." Adam said directly implying that she is cuter than a cat.

She blushed and smiled, "Glad I'm cuter than a small furry animal," She said she loved cats.

"You undoubtedly are."

"You are just full of sweet talk huh?" She asked.

Adam shrugged, "Sorry but you're hard not to compliment."

"You are sweet," She said happily as the others got into the RV. He kissed her on the cheek to which she simply responded, "You need to work on you're aim." He kissed her on lips without another word. She pulled him in closer smiling into the kiss.

"Could you both do that somewhere else please?" Gretchen asked

They split apart and she looked around, there was no where else.

"Or wait until we get there?" She asked.

Tempest pouted, "Well that's just not fair."

"What do you mean?" Gretchen asked.

"How come we have to wait?" Tempest asked.

"The rest of us are," Gretchen said.

"Not them," Tempest said pointing to Phineas and Isabella who sat in his lap kissing him just as Tempest and Adam had been.

Gretchen looked over at them then turned to Ferb, "Well, if everyone else is doing it…" She reached up and kissed him.

Figuring that it's ok now, Tempest went back to kissing Adam.

Candace glanced in the back at a stop light. "Ugh, teenage hormones." She said

After a while, they got to the last stop light of the trip and all the lovers had to stop for a while. "We're almost there it your all done swapping spit," Candace said. They all broke apart blushing deeply. "Good cause I have squirt gun up here," She warned

Adam chuckled at that thinking about how earlier, he was compairing Tempest to a cat and that's a common punishment for bad kitties… a normal one anyways.

"You would squirt us?" Gretchen asked.

Candace shrugged. "I don't see why not."

"It's rude," Tempest said.

"Yeah, we're not cats." Isabella agreed still on Phineas' lap.

Tempest blushed remembering her and Adams conversation earlie "Meow." She said humorously causing Adam to laugh. Continuing the joke, Tempest licked her wrist and then brought it against her forehead down to her temple.

"What's up?" Isabella asked looking at them oddly.

Tempest just meowed in response before rubbin her head against Adam making purring noises so Adam explained, "I was compairing her to a cat earlier so I'm guessing she's acting like one now.

Tempest just continued to purr, which a few of the boys had to admit was sort of turnung them on. Not that they would say it out loud. "She's the cutest cat in the world though." Adam said as he ran his fingers through her hair.

Tempest just smiled up at him, he really was special if he could handle her weirdness. "See? I told you you're part cat." Adam told her simply. She just snuggled into him a kept purring. Adam continued to run his fingers through her hair wondering how long she's going to keep this up.

"How long are you going to keep that up?" Phineas asked

Tempest meowed giving no answer what so ever.

"A while I think," Adam said smiling down at her a the RV stopped at the lake.

Were here!" Candace said.

Tempest nudged Adam to stand up. He picked his 'cat' up and stood up before putting her back on her feet.

"Thank you!" She said giving him a quick kiss.

"Oh my god, a talking cat." Adam said in mock amazement. She smiled and did a totally unnecessary back flip out of the RV. Adam climbed out of the RV. "What was the point of that?"

"Fun," She shrugged.

Adam shrugged taking her hand. "I guess so."

"Also, I saw you look at my butt as I flipped," She said.

Adam blushed. "Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"It's okay, only because it's you though," She said.

"So, ready to go for a swim?" Adam asked wrapping his arm around her.

"Of course, but don't we have to help everyone unload?" She asked

"Oh, right" Adam said going over to where all the supplies were in the RV.

"Nice try," Isabella said.

Adam rolled his eyes and turned to Tempest and patted his thighs. "Here kitty, kitty." She smirked and walked over to him. Adam smiled playfully and patted her head. "Good kitty."

She decided to taunt him back, but in a different way. She leaned in and kissed and licked her way up his neck. "Be careful, cats can fight back," She whispered before biting his earlobe.

"Ow. Okay, I guess I deserved that." Adam admitted.

"Yes, yes you did." She smiled.

"But it's hard not to call you a cat when you were acting like that." Adam pointe out in his defense.

"Maybe, but I am an odd girl get used to it," She said.

Adam shrugged, "Spend a week on Maple Drive a while ago, you're not really that odd."

"Then I'll have to try harder," She said.

"I have no doubts you could, you just really have to work for it." Adam said taking out some of the supplies.

"Okay," She said jumping into his back and grabbing some supplies

Adam chuckled, "That's still cat-like."

"I know, but it was easier,"

"Well, now that you have some supplies, could you get down?" Adam asked.

"Yeah," she said sliding down. "So, where are we stationing? Just here?"

"Yep," Adam said.

"Alright." She said setting the supplies she grabbed, down. "That makes in easy."

"Yeah,"


Minutes later the girls were swimming while the guy unloaded giant speakers "How come they get to go swim while we're still working?" James complained.

"It's called being gentlemen," Ferb and Adam said together.

"Well, I guess that's true but it's still not fair." James said as they set down on of the speaker.

"Life isn't fair," Adam said.

James sighed moving onto another speaker, "Right."

"Beside we're almost done," Ferb said.

James nodded, "Just one left, then we can go meet up with our girlfriends."

"What do you think of Tempest?" Adam asked.

"She's a pretty cool girl, a little odd but who here isn't." James said feeling guilty even though he and Adyson 1 had no other options.

"Yeah, she's amazing," Adam said.

"Yeah, she seems like a lot of fun so far." Ferb agreed.

"Ferb, what about you and Gretchen?" Phineas asked

"What about us?" Ferb asked confused.

"You two just seem, off lately," Phineas said.

"It's fine, Phin." Ferb told him.

"You sure?" Phineas asked. Ferb nodded hooking up the final speaker. "Well okay," Phineas said not convinced

"Well, the speakers are done." Ferb observed changing the subject.

"Lets go swim then," James said taking off.

"Wait for me." Adam said taking off.

They jumped in soaking all the girls. Tempest brushed a strand of her hair out of her face with a smile. "Hi Adam."

"Hi Tempest!" He said smiling.

Tempest flipped around so she was floating on her back though Adam and most of the other could touch back where she was, she was a little too short so she was treading. "You were right, this is exactly what I needed."

"A swim always helps me," Adam said.

"No question why. It's amazing." Tempest said relaxed.

"Glad it helps." Adam said.

Tempest bit her lip and flipped back over to treading again. "Adam, there's something else I really need to tell you, about Felicity."

"What?" Adam asked holding her.

"She has two active moles within Firestorm." Tempest whispered making sure random civilians don't hear. "They're your counterpart and your sister's."

"What? How long have they been moles?' He asked

"Coming up on about six years I believe." Tempest informed nervously.

"Interesting want to help me handle this now?" Adam asked pointing to the two in question. Tempest nodded with a smirk. "Okay, who do you want him or her?" Adam asked.

"Her." Tempest said having the feeling that Isabella 1's coming from the same place she was with her own brother.

"Okay, I'll see what's up with him," Adam said giving her a quick kiss before they headed in different directions.

Tempest swam over to Isabella 1. "Hey, can I talk to you?" She asked

"Sure, what is it?" Isabella 1 asked, her hand going to her comm which if you remember, is hidden on her thigh.

"I just wanted to know, are you okay you seem wary of me," Tempest said

"You know." Isabella 1 said knowingly knowing she'd know what that meant. "You could tell others. Nothing's stopping you."

"Who's to say I haven't?" Tempest asked.

Isabella 1 gulped. "Did you?"

"Maybe, why shouldn't I rat you out?" She asked carefully.

"I didn't want to, it was just, with my brother, you of all people understand that right?" Isabella 1 said kind of desperate.

Tempest noded, are you sure your brother is in his right state of mind? I mean when my Adam found out about Felicity he left her and Vanessa," Tempest said carefully.

"He more than likely isn't but I just can't get through to him." Isabella 1 said with a sigh.

"I think my Adam might be helping with that," She said.

Isabella 1 gulped little scared to check over at her brother. "So, you did tell him?"

"Yes, and I think he just knocked your brother out," She said

Isabella 1 paled, but at least he wasn't in the water. "What what do you think's going to happen to us?"

"Depends on his state of mind," Tempest said.

"Then he's screwed." Isabella 1 said blatantly. "What about me though?"

"I don't know," She said.

"That's pretty much the scariest answer you could have given." Isabella 1 said looking down.

"It's the truth," She said.

"One thing's for absolute certain though, I won't be the head of Firestorm anymore." Isabella 1 staded the obvious.

"No, no you won't," She said.

"And I'd probably be locked up for a while like Adyson 1 and James had, more than likely longer than them though." Isabella 1 guessed wanting to leave it as more than the original 'I don't know' but wanting to believe that they wouldn't kill her.

"I would think so, unless you have some valuble secrets?"

"I know where Felicity went when she teleported off." Isabella 1 said simply.

"Do you?" Tempest asked.

Isabella 1 nodded, "She's in her tower in 2nd Dimension Paris. Not surprising, that's her favorite one."

"Good to know, oh look my Adam found a comm unit."

"Impressive, those are really well hiden." Isabella 1 said looking over at them.

Adam stuck the comm in his ear "Hello?" He asked.

"Hey honey." Felicity said casually through the comm.

"Aw, so you can tell the difference between which Adam has the coom," Adam said

"Of course, I'd recognize your voice anywhere." Felicity said in a dreamy voice.

"Are you still in love with me?" Adam asked surprised

"Of course I am, Adam. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well, there was the attack on your tower and the fact you killed my previous girlfriend," Adam said.

"Come on, you're STILL mad about that?" Felicity asked as if it was nothing. "Come on, forgive and forget. Besides, it was your sister's idea. She told me back at the pool that if Katie was out of the way, then I'd already have you in tha way, and she was right, it worked like a charm until you overreacted."

"Until I overreacted you killed Katie just to get at me and you minipulated my emotions," Adam said carefully.

"How did I manipulate your emotions?" Felicity asked.

"You got to me at a time where I was not entierly in my right frame of mind," Adam said.

"Oh come on you know you would have either way." Felicity pointed out.

"Maybe, but we'll never know now will we?" He asked.

"Well, I don't see why we can't." Felicity said as it he'd agree.

"What are you talking about?" He asked.

"Come on, you can't say you don't still love me without lying to yourself." Felicity said with confidence.

"A small part of me maybe," Adam said in a cold tone.

"Come on, you can't be that mad. I was just doing what your soster said." Felicity whined.

"She did not tell you to kill Katie," Adam said.

"Well, whatelse could, 'if Katie was out of the way' have meant?" Felicity asked not seeing anyother possible meaning than to kill her.

"It meant, if she and I had broken up," Adam said.

"Now why would she tell me that then? Was I supose to somehow break you guys up? That would be aweful. Why would she want that?" Felicity asked in pretty much the most fucked up logic you could get. Even worse than the famous, 'sexist pan' arguement from her counterpart.

"In what world do the things your saying make sense?" Adam asked

"All of them. How does it not?" Felicity asked.

"She did not want you to either one."

"Then what good would telling me that have done?"

"Cheering you up," Adam said.

"Then she could have worded it better, you can't blame me for making that mistake."

"What sane person thinks murder is an option?"

"No one, who said I was sane?" Felicity asked simply.

"You have a point there, but my point is no less valid," Adam said.

Felicity rolled her eyes, "Whatever, you'll see sense soon enough."

"What makes you think I would ever come back to you?" Adam asked

"Love." Felicity said simply.

"I don't understand?" Adam said.

"You'll come back to me because you love me. Even though you keep lying to yourself about it. You can't deny true love forever, Adam."

"What makes you so certain that I love you still?" Adam asked.

"I can read people, even just by their voice. It's SUPER obvious right now."

"Maybe your deluding yourself?" Adam offered.

"Doubtful." Felicity said simply.

"I think you are," Adam said.

"Come on sweety you know no matter what some part of you still loves me," She said.

"No I don't." Adam said but he wanted to avoid mentioning Tempest in fear that she's kill her too.

"Oh yes you do wheather you realize it or not when the time comes you would rather kiss me than kill me." She said.

That almost made Adam physically sick right there. "I'd sooner kiss your counterpart."

"We'll see darling," She said.

Adam took the comm out and jammed it in his pocket. "God she's annoying."

"Who?" Tempest asked.

"Felicity." Adam said simply. "The comms unit."

"Can I talk to her?" She asked.

Adam handed her the comm with she put in her ear. "Felicity?"

"Oh, it's just you," She sighed sounding bored.

"Well, it's great to hear from you, too." Tempest said sarcastically.

"Of course it is now what do you want you filthy little thing?" She asked coldly.

"You dead for starters, and for the record, I took a shower this morning and am way more beautiful than you could ever dream of being." Tempest said smugly.

"I find that very hard to believe have you seen me?" She asked equally smug.

"Yes, I have seen you and I look WAY better. Just ask Adam." Tempest said her smugness not faltering.

"Oh please there is no way you look better," She said. "I can prove it can these things take pictures?"

"Of course, what self respecting comm unit doesn't have a camera?"

Tempest pulled it out of her ear and found the camera lens, "Hey Adam sweaty come here please?" She said.

Adam took the comm. "I heard enough from your side."

"Oh good," she said smiling as he took the picture.

"Haha very funny, now send the real pic." Felicity said once she recieved it.

"That is the real pic," Tempest said.

Then she sat down beside Adam and took another pic, "See?" She asked. The line went silent. "Are you there?" Tempest asked. There was a thud noice and nothing else. "I think she passed out," Tempest said as she could faintly hear breathing.

A voice very similar to Felicity's but distinctly different came on to the line. "Um, what just happened here?"

"Oh Felicity 1 I made your counter part pass out," Tempest said scary as she may be Felicity 1 had been Tempest's only friend and taught her about blades.

"I can see that but what did you say to cause that." Felicity 1 asked.

"She got to see what I looked like now that I showered look at the photo's," She said happily.

Felicity 1 looked at the photo's. "Wow, that has to be the most beautiful think I've ever seen. No wonder she fainted."

"Thank you very much," Tempest said happily.

"That combined with you sitting against a half naked Adam probably got to here," Felicity 1 said.

"It's actually just swim trunks but I guess I can see how she would make that mistake." Tempest said simply."So, are you okay?"

"Me me, yeah. The other me… she should be fine in awhile." Felicity 1 said looking over a her counterpart.

"Nothing new?" She asked carefully in case Vanessa was there.

"Vanessa's dead." Felicity 1 said casually. "My counterpart doesn't know that yet."

"You killed her?" Tempest asked.

"Yeah brutally," Felicity 1 said.

"Okay, get out of there now! Come to where we are," Tempest said.


Felicity 1 appeared next to them but then paled backing away from the lake. "Oh, wow, considering the swimsuits that really should have been a dead give away." She said fearfully.

"Yeah, but it's great to see you," Tempest said hugging her.

"Nice to see you too but," Felicity 1 awkwardly slid out of the hug back away. "You're soaking wet, and you're getting me soaking wet."

"Oh right, sorry." Tempest said blushing.

"It's alright, I guess." Felicity 1 said biting her lip as she tried to avoid looking at the lake. "Why do we have to be HERE though?"

"We came here for a fun lake trip," Tempest shrugged drying off.

Adam came up to the two 'evil' girls, one who is claimed to pretty much be indestructable bu is currently near a full fledge panic attack, awkwardly. "Tempest, why exactly is she here?"

"Oh, she killed Vanessa," Tempest said.

Adam looked at Felicity 1 in shock. "You killed her?"

Felicity nodded still avoiding looking at the lake at any cost. "Yes, brutally."

"Well, then that solves one problem," Adam said then he noticed how paniced Felicity 1 was. "You ok?"

"She's terrified of water." Tempest told him knowingly. "I had forgotten about that but she can't even be near it."

"Oh, well get her to the RV then," Adam said.

Tempest nodded. "Alright, come on, Feliss. I'll show you to it."

"Okay," She said following Tempest. "You really do look amazing, Tempest."

"Thanks, that's what pretty much everyone keeps telling me." Tempest said blushing. "I sort of wonder what my counterpart is like though, she's probably like an obsessive neat-freak."

"Knowing you, yes she probably is," Felicity 1 said.


They got into the RV. "We have a bunch of snacks if you're hungry." Tempest told Felicity one which is annoying so from now on we will just call her Feliss and First Dimension Felicity, Felicity.

"Well, I am pretty hungry," Feliss said.

"Well, we pretty much have everything but the kitchen sink, what are you hungry for?" Tempest asked recalling the last round.

"Mashed Potatoes?" She asked.

"Got it. I'll be back in a second." Tempest said heading out of the RV since they had unloaded the food as well. Feliss looked round it really was a nice RV. "You like it?" Tempest asked coming back in with a container of mashed potatos, a fork, and an apple juice in case she was thirsty.

"Yeah, bathroom, TV, a bed; people could live comfortably here," She said

Tempest chuckled slightly handing Feliss the stuff. "Most RVs are designed like that."

"I've never been in one before," Feliss said.

"Oh, Gale and I had lived in an abandon one for a long time before we got caught up with Doofenshmirtz." Tempest admited taking a seat as she looked down sadly.

"I saw his body, what happened?" She asked.

"Adyson 1 and James killed him." Tempest said sadly looking down. "They say it was in self-defense and they had no other option though."

"Knowing your brother, it's proably true." Felicity said.

Tempest nodded slowly. "He had pretty much gone insane. Said that Adam and them had brainwashed me which is why I didn't want to be evil anymore. I just really wish there was another way." She said on the verge of tears.

Feliss hugged her, "You'll be okay." She said gently.

"I guess your right, Gale said as he was dying that he doesn't blame them. I guess I shouldn't either, huh?"

"You don't have to like them, but forgiving them could help," Feliss said.

Tempest nodded hugging her friend back. "I'll try, but it might take a little long."

"Good thing you have me then," She said.

Tempest nodded. "Very good thing. Plus, I have Adam, too." She let go of her suddenly serious. "You need to eat though."

"I guess, but what was that about Adam?"

"He's there for me. The very last thing my brother did was tell him to take care of me. Besides, we started dating yesterday." Tempest said trusting Feliss.

"You stole Adam from my couterpart?" Feliss asked.

Tempest shook her head. "He broke up with her when he found out that she's the one who killed Katie."

"That's not what she's been saying,"

Tempest rolled her eyes. "Of course it isn't, she's too damn proud to admit it."

"Well, congrats," Feliss said.

"Thank you, plus, we started dating BEFORE I showered so I know he likes me for the right reasons." Tempest said in a dazed state.

"He kissed you when you were all dirty?" She asked surprised.

Tempest nodded with a smile. "Yet he loved it."

"Wow, you got a good one," She said.

"Yeah, now I just need to keep him." Tempest said.

"Oh, you already have him hooked," Feliss said.

"Do I sense a tad of jealousy there, Feliss?" Tempest asked teasingly.

"What me? No way," Feliss said evasively.

"Come on, I know that look, you totally are." Tempest said scotching us to her.

"No, I'm not," She said.

Tempest shrugged. "Fine, deny it all you want."

"It's not denial," She said.

"Whatever you say, Feliss." Tempest said not buying it as she had lain down on the seat.

"It's not," She said.

"Alright, I guess I was wrong." Tempest said with a yawn. She was extremely rarely one to hold an argument.

"Good, now, do you want me to go get him for you?" She asked

Tempest shook her head and got up. "No, I'll get him. He more than likely went back into the lake."

"Okay, yeah, you get him," She said.


"I'll be back." Tempest promised exiting the RV in hunt of Adam. She found him sitting by the lake with his eyes closed and on his back. She smiled softly as she walked up to him and bent down kissing him. He instantly started kissing her back. She smiled into the kiss as she felt him run his fingers through her hair.

"Hello," He said when they seperated.

"Hey." Tempest said with a smile.

"What's wrong? You look tired" he said.

"It's weird, I'm pretty much always tired." Tempest said with a yawn. "Been tha way for almost a year now." Though she's completely unaware of this, she had accidentally inhaled a small amount of one of her own toxins basically deplinishing her natural energy supply which is obviously why she's always tired.

"Well you can lay with me," Adam offered.

"Thank you." Tempest said laying down in the ever familiar dirt and closing her eyes.

When he was sure she was asleep, Adam gently poked her with a needle she did not wake up as he drew blood from her and placed the few drops into an anlyzer he had taken from Baljeet before they came. "Check for any and all realtives in the database as well as any toxins," He said and the device came to life

After a very short while of scanning, the device came up with the results for toxins a man-made inhalation-based toxin concocted from common house hold cleaners called Langulium Quantricite (Don't ask how to pronounce that, I SUCK at giving those things), which weakens the bodies natural ability to produce ATP (cellular energy) causing severe fatigue.

"That explains why she's always so tired, I'll find a cure later," Adam muttered. He his fingers through the sleeping girl's hair wondering if it had been one of their to toxins since she was working for DEI and there are a number of poisons and toxins experts in Firestorm or her own on accident.

The device beeped and a computerized voice said; "Family members identified" Adam nearly dropped it out of pure shook of what came up on the screen.
