Third-Person POV
Adam, Bree, and Chase all said, "Bionic?" while Emily, Breyson, and Lennox all said, "Too?"
Donald said, "Okay, just to clear everything up, you're all bionic. Not you Leo, not you."
Bree looked at the new bionics and said, "What can they do?"
"Funny you should ask that. Okay, long story short: they were sick. I found them too late and couldn't cure them. I did the only thing I could, I gave them your guys' updated bionic chips to keep them alive, since bionics can fight off normal human illnesses way better than we humans ourselves can."
"Okay, so what did you mean by 'updated'?" Chase interjected.
"Alright, um, Emily has Adam's chip. She has his strength and lasers, but she can also communicate, control, and duplicate into different animals."
"No way," Leo said in disbelief. Emily walked over beside him and shrunk herself down to a black panther.
"That's her favorite," Lennox said with pride in her voice.
"Okay! I believe you now, I believe you! Change back!" Emily straightened up and smirked.
Don clapped a hand on Breyson's back and said, "Breyson here has Bree's chip. He has her speed but he can also duplicate into other people and he can influence a person's emotions by making them relive certain memories."
"Now I get the people-morph thing but how would you make someone relive-?" He stopped talking and had an emotionless look on his face.
"Uh, Leo? Are you okay?" Chase asked because Leo got down and started rocking on the floor crying.
"I d-don't wanna eat t-tuna with my dress on, mommy! The mean B-British giraffe will y-yell at me again!" Leo cried.
"What kind of memory is that?" Bree giggled.
"It's not. It was a dream he had, not too long ago, actually," Breyson replied smirking with two fingers to his temple.
Just then Leo stopped crying and stood up. He looked at Breyson and said, "Oh."
"So that means Lennox has my chip then? What can she do, Mr. Davenport?" Chase asked.
"Well, when I installed Lennox's chip, something happened that I wasn't really…prepared for. Lennox was the sickest out of all of them, I mean; she was basically as death's door. That is why, I guess, when I installed her's, it advanced a little more on its own." Don sighed at the confused faces then continued. "Let me explain. Lennox has Chase's superior intelligence, superhuman senses and force fields. Lennox can also read normal human minds, not bionics, she has a form of telekinesis, and an odd part of her chip where she can steal someone's memories and even implant fake memories in someone's mind."
"Wow, that's pretty cool, Lennox," Adam said, impressed. Just that little comment made her blush.
"She's gonna use me to demonstrate on, isn't she?" Leo said. "Okay, give me your best shot." He said, spreading is arms out beside him.
They all waited with bated breath, watching back and forth between her and Leo, but from what they could see, nothing was happening.
"Uh, Lennox? Are you gonna go?" Bree asked.
"Just wait," she said, a mischievous grin on her face. They all watched as a bucket of water was making its way from the upstairs bathroom and towards Leo, who had his back turned.
"You may want to close your eyes, Leo," Lennox suggested.
"Close my wh-?" he didn't get to finish. The water splashed over him and he was completely drenched,
He squirted some water from his mouth and said, "Well, that was uncalled for."
"Nice Lennox," Emily said.
"Here, let me clean that up," Lennox said, and soon all of the water lifted until the floor, and Leo, were dry. She dumped the water back into the bucket and it made its way back upstairs.
"That was pretty wicked," Leo said, recovered. "So, are you guys staying, then?"
The three looked at Donald and he said, "Welcome home, guys."
Leo POV
I can't believe it! Three more bionics! Too bad they weren't all girls. I wonder how Mom's going to react to them; I really hope she lets them stay, maybe with some time I can get Lennox to come around to my Leo Charm…
Chase POV
"Hey Lennox, I can show you and your brother and sister to your rooms. I mean, we have plenty of guest rooms." Lennox's dark brown, wavy hair combined with those deep, dark blue eyes, literally almost made me paralyzed. She was gorgeous, but I could tell she was shy.
"Yeah, that sounds great," her sister Emily said before Lennox could even open up her mouth.
After I showed them all to their rooms, it started storming outside. I remember when the noise from the thunder used to bother me. I was headed to my room (Davenport finally let us have our own rooms) when I heard a lot of noise coming from Lennox's room.
Lennox POV
The sound coming from the thunder outside made my head feel like it was being split open. In the four years I've had bionics, we never had a storm like this. I was running around my room, looking for things to stuff over my poor ears. The thick pillows felt like tissue paper for all the good they were doing. It was getting louder now, how on earth was that possible?! I fell to the floor, with my hands pressed tightly to my ears, crying. I wasn't sure if I was crying from the pain or Aaron's death. It had been just two days ago.
Just then I felt two strong hands on my arms, lifting me up. I looked into Chase's concerned eyes and quickly straightened up.
"How long have you had bionics, Lennox?" Chase asked me.
"Four years, but we didn't have storms like this in Miami," I said. "How did you do it?"
"I just had to get used to it. Come with me, I'll show you something that always helps me." I followed him to what I was guessing is his room. It actually wasn't very far from mine. There were NASA posters on the walls, a globe on his organized desk next to his three computers, a telescope by the window, and a large, blue plaid bed against the wall. It was very geeky and neat; eerily like my old bedroom at Aaron's house. The noise from outside was still murderous pressure on my skull. He walked over to his desk and pulled out two large workbooks
One was titled Differential Calculus and the other Integral Calculus. He looked at me and said, "Pick one."
I grabbed the Differential Calculus workbook and he handed me a pencil while getting himself one, too. One I started on the math, the noise slowly started to fade. A few pages in, it was gone completely.
After a wonderful hour of Calculus and no thunder, I closed my book, yawning.
"Thank you so much, Chase. I think I might be able to get some sleep now." I stood up and stretched.
"You're welcome. I remember the storms when I was very young. It killed me, but I got used to it after a while and so will you, I promise," he smiled and I got another glimpse of that adorable dimple, "Goodnight, Lennox."
"Goodnight, Chase."
A/N: I hoped you liked the second chapter and I really hope you review. Tell me what you think; I'm open to your welcomed criticism. I'm now very tired, so Goodnight, Fanfiction.
