A/N: Sorry the delay was my (Baatmrcus) bad.


Chapter 17

Tempest was knelt next to Adam in the bed. He should be waking us soon. Dr. Baljeet said so.

"Ugh what hit me?" Adam groaned waking up

"You hit a steel and concrete wall head first at about 90,000 miles per hour."

"Wow, how am I still alive?" Adam asked

"Isabella always said you have a hard head."

"I guess so," Adam chuckled

"Besides what happened with your head. What do you think of the new powers?" Tempest asked.

"They are fun," Adam said

"Good, cause now you're stuck with them."

"That sounds bad," Adam said

"Well, it's not all bad. At least you got them the easy way anyways." Tempest reminded.

"That's true are you okay?" He asked

"I'm fine, just worried about you." Tempest answered.

"I'm alright," Adam said

Tempest did a quick physical analysis of his head before a checking AAOX. "Who are you?"

"Adam Garcia-Shapiro." He said annoyed that she's checkin his mental status.

"Where are we?"

"The DEI base in Disneyworld assuming I wasn't moved from there."

"What season is it?"

"Summer."

"How many dollars are in a quarter?"

".25."

"Your in perfect shape," Tempest said hugging him.

"See, I told you." Adam said hugging her gently.

"I know but I had to check," She said.

"Well, it's a good thing I didn't miss anything." Adam commented.

"No, but you are on bed rest," Tempest said

Adam sighed. "For how long?"

"All of today and tomorrow," She said

"I'll be right here with you though." She added kissing his check.

"Thank you," Adam said

"It's my pleasure." She said smiling lovingly.

"You'll get bored," Adam said

"Not with you here." Tempest said hugging him.

"Nah you'll get sick of me," Adam said

"Impossible."

"Maybe," Adam said

"It is, I love you too much to get sick of you."

"I love you too," Adam said.

Tempest smiled and locked her lips on his.

Adam pulled her to him all thought of sleep for gotten

However, Tempest noticed that when they separated.

"You need sleep," She said

"I'm fine." Adam said.

"No sleep," She said

"I'm not tired." Adam said stubbornly.

"Yes you are," She said.

"No, I'm not."

"Adam, I of all people know what someone looks like when they're tired." Tempest reminded.

"Well...I'm not," Adam yawned.

"You can't lie to me." Tempest said laying him down.

"I guess," He yawned again

She ran her hand along his forehead. "Please?"

"Okay," He said leaning into her hand.

Adam yawned again and drifted to sleep.

"Told you," Tempest said smirking as she lay here head on his chest

She closed her eyes and went to sleep as well having stayed up all night waiting for him.

They slept well into the afternoon.


Finally, Tempest woke up in surprise. "Oh, wow."

"What is it?" Adam asked pulling her to him.

"I wasn't expecting to sleep so long." Temepst admitted.

"Why not?" Adam asked.

Tempest shrugged, "It's just surprising is all."

"Well I'm stuck in bed for a while other than the bathroom and showers, so I'll sleep and watch TV a lot," Adam said

"Yeah, but I wasn't expecting to myself." Tempest said.

"Well then you can go," Adam said sadly

"I don't want to go though." She said holding him close.

"You seemed bored," Adam said

"I'm not." She said snuggling her head up against him.

"Good," Adam said

"Should we see what's one or just lay here and relax?" Tempest asked.

"Relax," Adam said.

"Sounds good to me." She said peacefully.

Adam just smiled then there was a knock

"Who is it?" Adam asked.

"Isabella!" The voice said.

"Oh, come in!" Adam said with a smile.

She came in smiling.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"Yeah, actually." Adam said honestly.

"Good," Isabella said.

"How long was I out?" He asked either of them.

"A few hours then a few more hours," Tempest said.

"Oh, less long than I was worried." Adam said relieved.

"How long did you think?" Tempest asked

"I wasn't sure actually, days, possibly."

"Well no," Tempest said

Adam shrugged. "I know I wasn't know but I was worried that was the case."

"Well at least it was not," Isabella said.

"Yeah, how did I even survive that?" Adam asked.

"Super fast blood," Isabella said

Adam thought about it. "Well, I guess that makes sense."

"Yeah,"Isabella said.

"I guess once I'm out it will really take some getting is use to huh?"

"Yeah, but Felicity says it's easy,"

"Well, I guess I'll have to trust her on that since there's no one else with experience in this." Adam said.

"Exactly so don't stress," Isabella said.

"Yeah, if I want to be able to trust her with you then I need to be able to trust her with myself."

"Good," Isabella said

"She's been treating you well, right?" Adam asked.

"Yes Adam she has," Isabella said happily.

"Good, I kind of have to ask since you kept it a secret with Phineas until I specifically asked." Adam said.

"I know," Isabella sighed.

"You won't do that again though if something does happen, right?" Adam asked but he knew he's also guilty of usually keeping his mouth shut unless someone asks.

"Yes Adam I will tell you first," She said.

Adam gave a sigh of relief. "Good, it definately helps when you do."

I know," Isabella said.

"I'm still not sure what I'll do if she hurts you though." Adam said worriedly.

"Oh you'll think of something," Isabella said.

"Hopefully I won't have to." Adam said simply.

"I don't think you will," Isabella said

"I'm pretty sure you won't," Tempest said confidently.

"Good," Adam said simply

"Where is she by the way?" Tempest asked Isabella.

Down watching T.V," Isabella said.

"You might want to let her know that he's awake." Tempest reminded.

"Right I'll be right back," Isabella said.


She left the room to find her girlfriend.

She found her watching Tv

"Feliss." She said getting her attention. "Adam's awake."

Feliss was right in front of her instantly, "He is?"

"Yeah, you want to go see him?"

"Sure!" She said

Isabella held out her arm and Feliss took it and took them to his room.


"Hey Adam!" She said when they got there.

Adam smiled. "Hey Felicity."

"How are you?" She asked.

"Definitely better." Adam said.

"That's good," She said smiling.

"I wish I wasn't stuck here though."

"Well you are," She said.

"Well, at least I have you guys." Adam said.

"And you always will," Tempest said.

"As long as we're still alive." Isabella promised.

"Thank you all," Adam said hugging them

"You're welcome." Tempest said and they all returned the hug.

"You all rule," Adam said

"So do you." Feliss said.

"Not nearly as much," Adam said

Tempest looked up at him. "Yes you do."

Adam shrugged smiling down at her.


Two days later, Adam was finally up and out of bed.

"Oh thank goodness!" Adam said stretching.

"See, it wasn't terribly bad was it?" Tempest asked.

"It was boring," Adm said

"Oh." Tempest said looking down.

"I meant the moments without you," Adam said

Tempest blushed snuggling into him.

"So, now what?" Adam asked.

"Now we work out a plan to go after Rodney." Feliss smirked.

"I can't wait!" Adam said.

"Then lets get to planning." Tempest said.

"Lets," Adam said

The four of them headed over to the planning room.

"So where do we start?" Adam asked

"First we need to find him, he's constantly moving." Tempest reminded.

"There has to be some way," Adam said.

"If we could some how get his DNA, we could scan for it." Tempest suggested.

"We could check the places he hid to attack us for DNA," Adam said.

"That works, do you know where those are?" Isabella asked.

"One near the tea cups," Adam said

"Which direction?" Isabella asked.

"To the east," Adam said.

"Alright, we'll search there and see if we can find anything." Feliss said with a nod.

"Lets go," Adam said.

Adam and Feliss both blurred over their searching for any DNA samples.


Adam came out feet from where he should be. He corrected this though and was right on track.

"Sorry I'm late," Adam said arriving.

"It's okay, you're just getting use to the powers." Feliss smiled.

"Still,"Adam said.

"The first couple time you try you're going to be missing your destination a lot. I did, too at first." Feliss shrugged.

"Oh okay," Adam said.

"I think I found something though." Feliss said bending down to the ground.

"What hair blood?" Adam asked.

"Obviously not hair, and it's not blood." She said disgusted and pulled out a cue tip taking some of it up. "Spit."

"Gross," Adam said.

"Yeah, but it's all we've got." Feliss said putting it into an isolation vial.

"I suppose," Adam said.

"Now, come on, lets see if you can get it right this time." Feliss said before blurring back to base.


Adam followed and cam out right beside her.

Feliss clapped. "Good job, Adam."

"Thanks," Adam blushed.

"Did you guys get it?" Tempest asked.

Felicity held up the vial.

"Perfect, then lets find that idiot." Tempest said.

"Careful it's his spit," Feliss said.

"Okay, gross, but it works." Tempest said stepping back.

"Drop it in the machine," Adam said.

Feliss nodded and did so. It began scanning slowly, Feliss was surprised that it wasn't going very fast.

"It has to scan everywhere," Adam said.

"I know." Feliss sighed.

"So relax it will take time," Adam said.

"Alright, I can be patient." Feliss said.

"No you can't" Tempest said.

"Yes I can!" Feliss said defensively.

"You are already tapping your foot and it's been two minutes," Tempest said.

Feliss sighed. "Alright, I'm not very patient."

"I knew it," Tempest sing songed

"You know too much." Feliss said in a jokingly creepy voice.

"You can't get me," Tempest taunted

"Wanna bet?" Feliss smirked.

Tempest hid behind Adam.

"You know I'm kidding." Feliss said simply.

"I know, but just in case Adam will protect me," She said.

"He's just getting use to his powers, I could still take him." Feliss said, Adam of course, took that as a challenge.

"Want to test that?" Adam asked.

"Yeah." Feliss smirked.

"Where do you want to fight?" Adam asked

"Probably the training room, make sure to keep our girlfriends out of it." Feliss suggested.

"Deal want to go now?" Adam asked

Feliss nodded, "Bring in on." They both blurred there.


They stopped on opposite ends of the room.

"Let's do this," Adam said smiling.

Feliss got into a fighting pose and gestured him forward.

Adam blurred right in front of her and aimed a punch at her stomach. Feliss grabbed his arm stopping it but quickly notice she was losing it. Adam arm pushed through her guard and hit her in the gut

She grunted slightly and went for a punch to the jaw. It slipped past his guard connecting on his jaw. Adam kicked her in the shin ruining her stance then gave another punch to the stomach knocking her on to her back.

"Give up?" Adam asked

"Of course not." Feliss said trying to get up but Adam held her down at her center of gravity. "Alright, you win."

"Yes!" Adam said happily

He took his foot off of her and helped her up.

"You beat me," She said

"For real? You didn't throw it?" Adam double-checked.

"No that's why I'm shocked I could not defend," She said

"Yes!" Adam said happily. "I usually never win."

"Well good for you," Feliss said

"We should head back to Isa and Tempest." Adam pointed out.

"Yeah I guess so race?" She asked.

"You're on!" Adam said and they blurred back.


Feliss won. Adam sighed when he got there. "Alright, you're faster, I'm stronger and a better fighter. Fair?"

"Fair," She shrugged.

"You won?" Isabella asked trying not to sound too surprised.

"Why is that so shocking?" Adam asked.

"Well, to be honest, you usually lose."

"Hey!" Adam huffed.

"Well, statistically speaking..."

"Stop," Adam said.

She stopped. "Sorry."

"It's okay," Adam said.

"That is impressive though." Tempest said genuinely.

"It is?" Adam said.

"Yeah, I told you back in the jet all that time ago. Usually Feliss is NOT someone you want to mess with."

"Why not? It was fun!" Adam said.

"True, but she's usually unbeatable so it's really impressive that you did."

"Thanks?" Adam said.

"Yes, that's a compliment." Tempest specified.

"Thanks then" Adam said smiling.

"You're welcome." She said hugging him.

"Any luck? Adam asked holding her against him.

"Not yet, it's almost done though." She answered.

"Dang," Adam muttered

There was a buzz noise. "Now we do."

"Look at that Hawaii," Adam said.

Feliss instantly paled. "Hawaii?"

"Hawaii," Adam said

"I'm out." Feliss said.

"What?" Adam asked

"There's no way I'm going to Hawaii."

"Why not?" Adam asked

"Hawaii's a collection of islands. You know I'm terrified of water." Feliss reminded.

"By that logic you cannot live anywhere," Adam said.

"What do you mean?" Feliss asked.

"Well technically all land are islands," Adam said.

"Not little one's though." Feliss pointed out.

"They are still islands," Adam said.

"They're not islands to where every where you turn it's the ocean though."

"Fair enough," Adam said.

"Do you guys think you would be able to handle it without me or would you rather wait till he moves?" Feliss asked.

"Wait until he moves since I do not have full control of my powers," Adam said.

"Sorry." Feliss said looking down.

"It's alright you have a phobia everyone does," Adam shrugged.

"I have three actually: water, shoes, and platypi." Feliss pointed out.

"Still Adam shrugged.

"What are you afraid of?" Feliss asked Adam.

Adam looked down and mumbled something

"What's that?" Feliss asked.

"Thunderstorms and Clowns"

"Why was that hard for you to say at first?" Feliss asked.

"It's embarassing,"

"I'm afraid of water, shoes, and platypi; I think I have you beat on that." Feliss reminded.

"I feel it's embarrassing," Adam said.

"I'm afraid of thunderstorms too and moths." Tempest confessed.

"Moths?" Isabella asked

"Don't judge me." Tempest said with a slight glare.

"It's just odd that's all," Isabella said.

"Well, what are you afraid of?" Tempest asked since they were all sharing their fears.

"Being buried alive and spiders,"

"Oh… alright." Tempest realized something out of the blue. "We never did check Steve's article did we?"

"No we got distracted," Adam said.

"Rightfully so, but we definately should." Tempest said worriedly.

"Yeah I guess so," Adam said

"I'm nervous though." Tempest muttered.

Adam walked over and wrapped an arm around her. "Why?" He asked.

"I don't know what could be in there but I know it will be horrible." Tempest said accurately.

"Maybe, but the other article were great," Isabella said

"I guess so." Tempest gulped.

"Yeah so calm down," Adam said

Tempest took a deep breath and nodded snuggling into him. "Alright, I will."

"And I'll be here," He said

"Do we even have that paper from that day?" Tempest asked.

"We can find it on the internet," Isabella said.

"Alright, right now?" She asked.

"If your ready," Isabella said

Tempest nodded. "We have to."

"Then let go computer room people," Isabella said

Feliss and Adam picked took their respective girlfriends straight to that room.


They got on computer and searched for the article

"Found it!" Isabella said.

She pulled up an article called, 'When we though it was over', front page.

"Oh joy that is a great start," Adam sighed.

Just when we all thought it was finally over we have yet another Doofenshmertz to deal with one Tempest Doofenshmertz age 16. She claims to not to be anything like her father and older sister but further investigation has proven otherwise. Before having even known who she really was, Tempest had fought for the company underneath both her father and sister in flawless standings for many years. Now I don't know about you, but that does not seem like the record of a good person to me. Ms. Doofenshmertz is clearly trying to deceive us all.

She may have managed to fool the other reporters and even Firestorm but I stongly advise you open your eyes to the facts instead of blindly trusting the word of a Doofenshmirtz.

Adam groaned as he finished the article.

"Great," Adam said angrily.

"How did she even get access to the company's records to know that?"

"Because she was a part of the company!" Isabella said

Tempest quickly looked into the files and her eyes widened. "Oh my god. She was."

"High up too," Adam said

"Then we need to make it so that the public knows that." Tempest said clutching the counter.

"We will," Adam said.

"We could reach one of the other reporters." Isabella pointed out. "We have prove that it is true."

"Send him the files to back it up," Adam said

Tempest's fingers were already flying across the keys.

"Oh she's mad," Felicity said.

"Yes, I am." Tempest said, her fingers going a mile a minute.

"This will be fun!" Adam said,

"Done." She announced finally stopping.

"Good!" Feliss said.

"Want to take a look or should I just send?" Tempest asked having not sent it yet.

"Did you include the weapons she helped make?" Isabella asked.

"Of course." Tempest said notably angry.

"Good then send it," Adam said.

Tempest smirked and hit send.

"Serves her right," Adam said

"This better work." She muttered

"It will," Adam said

She turned to him. "Now what?"

"We wait," Adam said

Feliss groaned. "More waiting?"

"Yes because what else can we do?" Adam asked

"Is there anything we could do wait?" Feliss asked.

"I am not sure," Adam shrugged

"We could go to the park." Tempest shrugged.

"That sounds fun!" Adam said

"Of course, it's Disneyland!" Tempest reminded.

"Point taken lets go," Adam said.

"Could you take me?" Tempest asked and Adam picked her up and they blurred off.

"Isabella?" Feliss said offering her hand.

Isabella took it and Feliss picked her up and they were off as well.
