A/N Okay, probably not one of my best chapters but I think I did a good job. Shout out time!
MarvelWorksWonders: I know I would love if Cassie was a real person she's awesome. Although I'd probably get really jealous that she's dating Chase's so… yeah
Callie's POV
I was standing in line with Bree and Leo while Principal Perry did backpack search, I'm pretty sure that's illegal. I will never understand how Cassie has put up with her for the past two years.
Principal Perry dug through Leo's bag and pulled out his phone "A-ha! Cell phones are a violation."
"I think you sticking your hand in my back pack is also a violation"
"Planning on texting your girlfriend in class, were you?" she asked.
"I don't have a girlfriend" Leo told her with a straight face.
"Yeah, well, now you don't have a cell phone either. Bye-bye" Leo walked over to Cassie, Chase and Adam.
I rolled my eyes and placed my bag on the counter "You know this isn't a very good first impression on a new student"
"I don't care about first impressions" she said as she dug through my bag. "Your good" she gave me my bag and sent me away.
"Hey guys" I waved as I walked over.
"Hey Callie" Adam waved with a smile.
"I'm pretty sure that's illegal" I said pointing to the bag check line.
"Yeah, technically by rights of the constitution we are protected against searches without a warrant" Cassie said matter-of-factly placing a hand on her hip.
I rolled my eyes, there was a sudden wind and Bree appeared in front of me and Leo. We screamed.
"Morning boys and girls" Bree smiled at us.
"Seriously can we put a bell on her?" Leo asked.
"Yeah" Chase agreed "you gotta chill on the super agility. Somebody's gonna see you using your bionics
"No one ever sees me" Bree argued "I mean, you didn't see me swipe your lunch money" she held up his money.
Chase searched through his pockets "You're like a ninja" Cassie said wide eyed. Bree smirked.
"Hey, you!" Principal Perry walked over "How'd you get past my checkpoint? I sent you to the back of the line"
"Uh… that wasn't me" Bree lied.
"Must've been somebody else." Chase added.
"Yeah, somebody who can't climb ceilings" Adam added also.
"Do they even know the definition of subtle" I whispered to Cassie.
She shook her head "I don't think so"
"You three have an answer for everything, don't you?" Principal Perry asked.
"I don't like to brag but the answer to that is yes" Chase smirked.
"Oh god" I muttered while Cassie face palmed.
"There is one thing I pride myself on-"
"Your incredibly sturdy calves" Bree asked cutting Principal Perry's brag off.
Principal Perry groaned "No! My instincts and my instincts tell me that you three are trouble"
"Well I don't like your instincts at all" Adam said "And you can tell them I said that"
"You know what" Cassie walked over "I think we should leave before you grow a fourth foot and stick it in your mouth. We started to drag them away but Principal Perry spoke again.
"I can't put my finger on it but ever since you arrived, strange things have been happening around here. And the only strange thing I will tolerate is the janitor. I have to. He's my cousin"
"Who are they?" Leo asked pointing to the two guys that walked by carrying equipment.
"Air conditioning repair men" Principal Perry told us "They're here to check on the strange winds that have been blowing around here for months" Principal Perry walked over to them. Cassie and Leo followed her.
"They're talking about you" Chase said looking at Bree.
"The only mysterious wind around here comes from Adam" Bree said and Adam nodded.
Principal Perry walked back over Leo and Cassie following "Just so you know tonight is parent/teacher night. Which means tomorrow is 'You're grounded' day!" she laughed. "So, good luck!"
"You know if school's hell does that make Perry Satan" Cassie asked with a serious look.
"What th heck is parent teacher night?" Chase asked.
"it's when teachers tell your parents every bad thing you've done"
Cassie nodded "Yeah, like forgetting your homework, or skipping class, or staging a protest for enter bathroom soap" Leo nodded. We all gave them a weird look.
"Don't look at us like that. You're all benefiting from our rebellion" Leo pointed between him and Cassie.
"If Perry tells Davenport about the strange things she's seen, he'll know we're using bionics in school and he'll pull us out for sure" Adam enlightened us.
"well, then we can't give principal Perry any hard evidence" Chase crossed his arms.
Cassie nodded "Yep, which means none of you, can use your bionics. No heat vision, no super strength, and no super speed" she pointed at them.
"Well, that's just crazy. I mean what do you expect me to do walk?" Bree looked at Cassie who nodded her head.
"I myself plan to ace parent/teacher night by kissing up to all my teachers. That way, my mom will let me go to the big concert I've been looking forward to"
"The Riffraff Jammy Jam!" Cassie and Leo shouted and fist bumped.
"Ooh! I wanna got o the riffraff jammy jam!" chase shouted excited and started dancing.
Cassie put her hand on his shoulder "Not with moves like that" he stopped.
Miss Watkins walked by and Leo smirked "Watch this" he walked over "Miss Watkins! Wow, that new haircut is working! I thought you were Angelina Jolie!" she smiled and walked away. "That should be good for a C plus"
"I don't know about you" I smirked "but I haven't gone to this school long enough for any of the teacher to have any dirt on me so I good"
Cassie's POV
In lunch later that day I was standing with Chase and Bree in the lunch line when Adam walked over with a hotdog. He took a bite then spit it back out "Oh! Ugh! This hotdog's not even hot! And don't get me started on the fact that it's not even a dog!" he raised it closer and used his heat vision to heat it up. I hit the back of his head "ow!"
"No Heat vision Adam!" I scolded. "Perry is watching you all like a hawk" they all waved over to her who was watching them with her arms crossed.
"I feel like I've been standing in line all day! I just want pizza! Not being able to use my super speed whenever I want is killing me!"
"You think it's hard on you" I crossed my arms "My gummy snacks got caught in the vending machine and I couldn't call Adam to come shake it out"
"Oh" Adam put a hand on my shoulder "I love shaking your gummy snacks"
"That's it I'm super speeding to the front" Bree dropped her book bag
"Control Bree control" I turned to the others 'Do something" they held her back as I walked over to Leo.
"Leo distract Perry before she sees Bree using her bionics" he nodded and walked over to Perry. I ran back over "Go, go, go" I ushered them out.
When we were out in the hallway we ran into Callie "Hey" she waved then paused "Why are they carrying Bree out of the lunch room"
"Evil principal, impatient bionic girl not a good mix' I explained as we kept walking.
"stop it! Put me down! I want pizza!" Bree shouted.
"The pizza here isn't even that good" I tried to reason.
"I don't care I want it" shouted at me.
"Well, you're not getting any" Adam told her as Chase and Adam set her down. "Oh but I can offer you this half eaten ice cold hot dog" Adam pulled it out of his pockets and handed it to Bree she pushed it away.
"Is it weird that I was tempted to eat that" I whispered to Callie as we walked away.
"Kinda" she nodded.
"Hey Leo" I waved.
"Leo! Cassie! Callie!" I heard Bree shout and the next thing I knew I was on the ground next to Leo and Callie and Leo was laughing like crazy.
"I'm walking towards the light! It's so peaceful" I stood up and helped Callie up. "What was-" I was cut off by Chase hugging me.
"Are you okay" he asked inspecting my face.
I grabbed his hands "I'm okay"
"Are you sure"
I nodded "Yes I'm sure"
"What was that?" Callie asked.
Perry came running over "what did you do to my school?!"
"We're okay. Thanks for asking" Chase said sarcastically.
"It's not our fault the air conditioning fell from the hole in the ceiling" Adam told her pointing to the ceiling.
"Well, if it crashed from that hole up there, what's it doing sitting unbroken right here?"
"That…" I walked forward "is an excellent question"
"You did this" she pointed to Adam, Bree, and Chase "you sabotaged my vents!"
"It wasn't us" Bree.
"Sure wasn't" Chase.
"Do I look like a sabotusiter to you?" Adam.
Perry shook her head "You know what? I doesn't matter"
"It doesn't" Callie repeated confused.
"Nope. Because I'll just see what happens when I watch the video footage"
Adam sighed "oh good she said it doesn't matter- wait the video wattage?"
"That's right. I had surveillance cameras, installed" we looked over to the dingoe picture to see it had a camera for an eye "and I'm going to find out exactly what happened and when I do you're all going down"
Leo walked over to her "perhaps a honey crisp will change your mind" he handed it to her. She took a bite then gave it back to him. Leo looked at it as Perry walked away "how many rows of teeth does this woman have?!"
I sat in between chase and Adam on the stairs with Callie and Bree on one side and Leo on the other.
"We have to stop Principal Perry from watching that video or she'll see all three of us using our bionics" Adam told us.
"Whatever we do, we cannot panic" Chase said "everyone just stay calm"
"We are clam" Callie told him.
"Well you shouldn't be we're in a crisis" Chase flipped.
"guys, is it that big of a deal if she see's us using our bionics and tells Davenport? I mean he already knows" Adam said seriously.
"But then Perry would know" Callie explained slowly.
"Yeah, so?" Adam rolled his eyes.
"Didn't Mr. Davenport start working on an invisibility cloak" I asked.
Chase looked at me "You are a genius" and kissed me.
"Well thanks"
"We can use it to sneak into Perry's office and grab the camera's hard drive"
"Good idea! I'll race home and get it!" Bree announced and sped off.
"Okay so while she's gone" Leo started but she was back before he could say anything "And she's back"
"There's not much time left until the parent/teacher night starts. We have to hurry" Callie rushed us.
"Okay, one of us has to get that hard drive?" Chase said looking between Leo and I.
"Okay, Well, you guys seem to have a handle on this so were just gonna go" Leo said and I nodded. We started to leave but they stopped us.
"No, Leo, Cassie, we need one of you" Adam called as they followed. "If we get caught Davenport will pull us out of school!"
"Yeah" Bree agreed "and he's not gonna pull either of you out you two are useless to him"
I turned to Leo "Heads you go Tails I go" he nodded. I pulled out a quarter and flipped it. I caught it and held it on my hand slowly pulling it away to reveal it as… heads. "Yes!" I shouted.
Leo groaned "Fine. Let me have it" he held out his hand. Bree gave it to him and he put it on. It made all of him disappear except for his head "whoa! Hey, guys. Check it out! Follow the bouncing Leo" he skipped away.
"What an air head" Adam laughed.
I snorted "No pun intended"
It had been at least 10 minutes and Leo still wasn't back out yet "what is taking Leo so ling" Bree complained.
"Taking Leo so long to do what?" Said Mr. D as he and Tasha walked over.
We all froze our pacing and faced them "Uh… to go out a get a job. Yeah, kid's gotta leave the nest some time, right?"
"So stellar students one and two where's number three' Tasha asked me and Callie. We gave her a weird look "Leo. Where's Leo?"
Perry walked out of her office with Leo and yelled at him but paused every time a couple walked by. Eventually Mr. D, Tasha, Callie, and I all made our way over.
"Mom" Leo hugged her "Hello. Mom, this is Principal Perry. Principal Perry, my extremely sympathetic and understanding mother"
"I caught this trouble maker sneaking around in my office" Perry told Tasha.
"Ooh, troublemaker" Mr. D repeated.
"Leo, what were you doing sneaking into this nice woman's office?"
I rose an eyebrow "He wasn't sneaking into a nice lady's office" I laughed "No, no, no. He was sneaking into her office" I pointed to Perry.
"Cassie!" Tasha scolded.
"I'm sorry Tasha" Callie stepped in "We can't tell you why"
"This must be so difficult for you" Mr. D put his hands on Tasha's shoulders. He turned to Adam, Bree, and Chase "Do you guys know anything about this?"
"Nothing" Adam.
"Not a clue" Bree.
"They're working alone" Chase.
I scowled at them "traders" I muttered.
Tasha escorted the three of us to the side "I am very disappointed in you. All of you. Leo, Cassie you are not going to that concert. And Callie no phone" Tasha held out her hand. Callie reluctantly gave it to her.
"What" Leo and I both yelled.
"But-"
"No" Tasha cut Leo off.
"But they-"
"No" Tasha cut me off.
"But fine" we both muttered.
Perry walked over "What do you say we go to the gym and I show you the rope that Leo can't climb, then we can go to the science classroom that Callie's failing, and finally we can make a stop at the detention room Cassie will be in next Friday for texting in class" Perry laughed and walked away with Tasha and Mr. D following. Leo, Callie, and I gave Adam, Bree, and Chase one final look before we followed as well.
Finally we got through all the stops Perry wanted to go to and now she was taking us to her office. No doubt to show them the video.
"Right this way. My office is right down this hall" Perry directed. "Don't you wish kids had a return policy" Perry said as we all walked in. Perry sat at her desk "No let's talk about the other three"
Mr. D sat down "They're great aren't they?"
Perry shook her head "No"
Leo elbowed me and pointed to the ceiling. I looked up and saw Bree.
"What are you-" Callie whispered looking up. I clamped my hand over her mouth before she said anything.
"Do you know what's fascinating about this office?" Leo asked me.
"The floor?" I answered "Let's all look at it"
"Hey!" Perry called "eyes on the prize. Let's start with the tall one"
"Adam" Tasha told her.
"Yeah. Or as I like to call him, empty box on a neck" she laughed and looked down/ Bree dropped her gum and Leo quickly caught it.
Leo laughed nervously "Almost dropped my gum" he slowly put it in his mouth. EW.
"Hey! No gum in school" Perry picked up a trashcan "Spit it out!"
"You couldn't have said that two seconds ago" Leo scowled and spit out the gum. A clip fell on the desk and both Tasha and Mr. D looked up. Mr. D looked like he was about to scream but he didn't.
Perry looked from us to the clip "where'd that come from"
"That's mine" Callie picked it up "for windy days, you know" she clipped it in her hair.
"You were saying" Mr. D said when he saw the weird look Perry was giving Callie.
"Why tell you when I could show you?" Perry looked around her desk. "Ugh! Where is that hard drive?" Perry turned around and we all started to inaudibly shout at Bree. When Perry turned back around we all froze.
"Don't go anywhere, or else!" Perry shouted. She paused "I mean please make yourselves comfortable" Perry left.
Bree dropped from the ceiling the second she left and Mr. D wasted no time pounding us with questions "What is going on?"
"It's a long story" Bree said.
"Well. Talk fast" Mr. D whispered.
"We were hanging out in the hallway when Chase was like 'what's that noise?' and I was like 'move' and Adam was like 'I got it' So then we used our bionics to save Leo, Cassie, and Callie form getting pancaked by an air conditioner. Bad news- cameras recorded everything and it's all on this hard drive."
Mr. d laughed sarcastically "Is that all?"
"And we used your invisibility cloak, so your top secret million dollar technology may be ruined, but, yeah that's pretty much it"
"Give me that hard drive. We have to get rid of it" Bree gave Mr. D the hard drive. I heard Perry coming.
"Perry is a coming" I whispered and Bree jumped back up on the ceiling and Mr. d went to leave to go destroy the hard drive but came face to face with Perry.
"I found the hard drive"
"Oh, I could kiss you" Perry smiled.
Mr. D smiled then frowned "please don't"
Perry took it and walked over to her computer as Adam and Chase ran in "Bree what is taking so l- uh, I mean… oops this isn't the men's room"
"Why would I be sitting in the men's room?" Perry asked.
"Well-"
"Shut it Andrews" Perry cut me off
"Well bye" Chase said and they turned to leave
"Stop. Turn. Sit" Perry commanded and both boys did each command. Adam sat on the ground and chase tugged him up. "Just one more connection" Perry said connecting wires to the hard drive. Perry bent down and Mr. D ran over and dragged Adam over to the desk.
"Quick. Crush that hard drive" he whispered.
"But you told us no bionics in school" Adam whispered back.
"And yet here we are. Os forget what I said and crush it" Mr. D whispered.
Adam turned to the desk and went to pick it up but smiled at Callie "Aw, that's so pretty" he pointed to the clip.
Perry stood up so Bree super sped down from the ceiling causing papers to fly everywhere and in the middle of it all Adam crushed the hard drive.
When it died down Perry looked at us "Talk about getting caught up in your work" Chase smiled.
Perry let out a small scream "One of you did this! You, you, you, you, you, or you!" she pointed to Mr. D.
"U was standing here the whole time! I didn't see anything!" Mr. D argued.
"Ugh! This is not over!"
"Oh, I think it is" Mr. D said "Air conditionings falling from out of nowhere, illegal back pack searches"
"I told you it was illegal" I cut in standing up. "Sorry" I muttered letting Mr. D continue
"Recording students without consent- does the school board know about this?"
Perry stuttered before she realized she was caught "Like I was saying, let's put this whole thing behind us!"
"Wise choice" I smirked.
"way to lawyer up Big D" we all laughed and ran out of the office.
Back at the house Leo, Callie, Tasha and I all walked down into the lab where everyone else was.
"Where have you been?" Mr. D asked.
"Well, since we couldn't tell Principal Perry the truth, we had to clean every bathroom in the school"
"We scrubbed, and we scrapped and Leo got a little nauseous" I listed.
"Luckily we were in a bathroom so that worked out" Leo added.
"Cassie, what about the cloak" Callie nudged me.
"Oh yeah" I handed Mr. D the bag "Here's your invisibility cloak."
"Sorry it's wet" Leo apologized "I used it as a mop"
Mr. D pulled it out and frowned. Adam Bree and Chase stood u p "Guys, thanks for having our backs" Adam said.
"Yeah, it was cool of you all to cover for us like that"
"It all worked out" Leo shrugged it off.
"Yeah we didn't get flattened by an air conditioning and your bionics didn't get exposed" Callie said smiling
"And we still get to go to the Riffraff Jammy Jam" Leo and I fist bumped.
"Cool maybe we can all go" Bree offered.
"Whoo-hoo! We are going to the Riffraff Jammy Jam!" Tasha shouted and started dancing.
I put a hand on her shoulder "Not with moves like that"
