Guest: Thanks.
Before school we were all gathered in the lab, Chase, Bree, Callie, and I were sitting at the table while Leo and Adam stood off to the side by the consol.
"Tonight's the night! The new frozen yogurt shop is opening! 52 flavors and four of them are sugar free!" Chase exclaimed.
"Yes Chase, cause we all crave those sugar free flavors" I said sarcastically as Bree shot him a weird look.
"Who are you kidding you passed out the first time you discovered nail polish" Chase said addressing the weird look Bree gave him.
"I've heard of those yogurt places' Adam said as he walked over. "They get you by charging extra for toppings. So, I'm bringing my own" he opened his large jacket to reveal it full of different toppings.
I frowned noticing one was missing 'You don't have any gummy bears"
"No they're right…" he trailed off sifting through the different bags 'no I did forget gummy bears. And you don't even want to know what's in my pants" he hit his leg. "Oh! Ah! Hot butterscotch! Ah!" Adam limped away.
"EW" Callie exclaimed and I nodded pulling a disgusted look. "Who likes hot butterscotch Callie finished.
I shot her a weird look 'That's what you found disgusting out of all that" I gestured to Adam who was still trying to shake the butterscotch out of his pants.
"Sorry you two are coming straight home after school" Mr. D said pointing to Bree and Chase. "So no flavors, no froyo, and no hanging with the bros, peeps, and homies"
"Bros, peeps, and homies?" Bree repeated. Mr. D nodded "no! Just... no!"
Mr. D rolled his eyes and walked over to the consol "What's got you so grouchy?" Leo asked. "Did they run out of human footstools at the rich guys club?"
"Air pound it" I shouted and raised my fist. Leo and I air fist bumped with a bwoosh.
"Did you forget your little buddy Marcus found the lab yesterday?"
"Oh!" Bree stood up with me, Callie, and Chase following. "So it's our fault that your million dollar smart home system didn't stop him?"
E then appeared on the screen "Don't even go there super girl! I was getting my beauty sleep something you might wanna look into"
"Ooh! Burn!" I exclaimed.
"Look it doesn't matter who's fault it was, even though someone left to the bathroom leaving the lab unguarded" Mr. D said pointing to Callie.
She pursed her lips and crossed her arms "yeah, well if someone was doing their jobs of watching him me going to the bathroom wouldn't have been such a big deal" Callie pointed to me and Leo.
"Well technically somebody pulled Leo and Cassie away leaving Marcus to roam freely" Leo defended pointing to Mr. D.
"Guys I think you're all talking about each other' Adam said.
Mr. D rolled his eyes "bottom line, I am keeping a tighter leash on you three" he gestured to Adam, Bree, and Chase. Then turned to Me, Leo, and Callie "and you three, because I can't always be there you all have to step it up and do a better job of watching out for them"
I waved him off "no problem Mr. D"
"Yeah we may have let one goon get too close but we won't let anymore Marcus's slip through the cracks. From now on you can call us"
"The enforcers" I finished with Leo posing.
Mr. D left the room and Leo and I lined Adam, Bree, and Chase up to lay down the ground rules.
"The hammer is down" Leo called.
"So down" I echoed.
"No more talking to boys" Leo told Bree.
"No boys" I echoed.
"No more talking to girls" Leo said to Adam.
"No girls"
"And no more helping old ladies to their cars" Leo said to Chase.
"No helping old ladies"
"I was helping your grandmother" Chase said to Leo.
"Trust no one" Leo got all up I Chase's face.
"You guys are being ridiculous" Callie muttered shaking her head.
I went to reply but then Mr. D came running back in shouting "It's here' like five hundred times.
"What's here" Callie asked mimicking the dance Mr. D was doing.
E re-appeared back on his screen "Whatever it is I hope it came with a big box of masculinity cause I never want to see that again"
"Ditto" I agreed.
"Just came here!" Mr. D shouted then ran to the garage.
"You heard him" Callie turned to us "Go there" she mimicked Mr. D and ran into the garage. Curious the rest of us followed.
When we entered the garage my jaw dropped to the floor at the sight of the sleek silver car. "Meet the world's first self-driving car, designed by yours truly. That's right just when you thought I couldn't get more awesome, Boom! I got more awesome!"
And boom!" Bree mimicked "I still want to be dropped off a block away from school"
Mr. D rolled his eyes "Don't listen to her Mr. D this is swasome" I told him.
"Swasome?" Callie repeated.
"A combination of swag and awesome"
"Of course" Callie nodded sarcastically.
"So how does this thing drive itself?" Leo asked changing the topic.
"Oh, well, uh, see this panel on top? It receives a satellite and sends all the pertinent information to the cars on board computer and voila it drives itself! Hey, did I mention, by the way, that this goes 200 miles per hour. No? That's because it goes 300"
Mr. D pulled out the keys and turned on the car "good evening Donald would you like to take a ride?" the car asked in a sophisticated voice.
"She sounds classy" Leo commented.
"Guys, what are you doing?" Tasha asked as she walked in "you're gonna be late for school! Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go" she ushered us all out of the garage.
At school I watched as Adam tried to talk to a girl but Callie snapped at her and said some weird excuse to get her to go away, I smirked.
"Callie" Bree walked over with Leo and I following "I think you're letting Leo and Cassie's crazy enforcer thing rub off on you"
"I have no idea what you're talking about" Leo defended himself.
"Yeah" I agreed as a boy tried to walk passed us. "Eh" I held him back and held up a metal detector and scanned the boy "You're good" I let him pass.
"Seriously you got a metal detector?" Bree asked.
"No" I denied "We got two metal detectors" I said as Leo pulled his out.
"Hey guys what's up?" Marcus greeted as he walked over.
"I'll tell you what's up, your time here' Leo snapped as we each held up a metal detector to either side of Marcus's face. "Get lost, creepy"
Marcus laughed and pushed them away from his face "That's funny guys" Marcus walked over to Adam, Bree, and Chase. "so, guys, are you excited for the new frozen yogurt shop? They're giving out unlimited toppings. Principal Perry's been camped out for weeks"
"Wha- unlimited toppings?" Adam repeated. "Somebody could've told me that before I filled my socks up with gummy bears for Cassie"
I scrunched up my nose "Nice gesture but no thanks Adam"
"Stranger danger" Leo muttered to them.
"Uh, sorry Marcus, we can't go" Chase told him.
"We have chores to do" Bree lied.
"No we don't. We have an uptight dad who's afraid we'll reveal our secret-" Callie smacked him on the shoulder cutting him off and sent him a look. He paused "recipe for chili" he added. "Ooh, that works let's go"
Adam, Bree, Chase, and Leo all ran out of the school leaving me and Callie behind.
"So Cassie are you going to the yogurt shop?" Marcus asked.
I crossed my arms confused, maybe he was just asking because Callie was there. I opened my mouth to respond but Callie cut me off.
"Yeah of course we are" she smiled.
"Callie that's not really fair to-"
"We're going to the yogurt shop" she muttered at me.
"Great let's go" Marcus smiled and walked out with us following.
When we got there the first thing we saw was Perry shot gunning from the yogurt dispensers. Callie and I sat down on a bench separating ourselves from Marcus.
"I'm going to go get some yogurt what do you want?" Callie asked me standing up.
"Tooty fruity twist with gummy bears" I answered. She nodded and left, the minute she was out of view Marcus came up and sat down next to me.
"Hey there Cassie" he greeted.
"Get lost creepy"
"Come on, Leo's not here, you don't have to pretend to hate me" Marcus said.
I couldn't help but laugh "Pretend? No Marcus I can honestly say I hate the sight of you"
"Well that's a shame. Because…" he trailed off raising an eyebrow "I love seeing you Cassie"
I paused, is he seriously hitting on me. I went to respond but a familiar silver car pulled up catching my full attention. I scowled at Marcus before I walked over to the car with Marcus following.
Adam, Bree, and, Chase all piled out of the car smiling "Hey guys" I greeted.
"Cassie!" they all jumped backwards a little.
"Don't worry I'm glad you're here" I smiled and walked over giving Chase a kiss that was longer than I intended it to be.
"Hey guys" Callie walked over and handed me my yogurt "I thought you weren't suppose to come here"
"Well you see-" Chase's lie was cut short when Marcus cut in.
"This thing is awesome!"
"Yeah, you just say any destination and it automatically takes you there" Chase explained.
"Yet, no matter how many times I tell it, take me to a better life, here I am" Bree said.
"And get this, it even has a compartment for your gloves" Adam exclaimed.
"Every car has a glove compartment' I told him.
He gasped "No way!"
"So, guys, the line looks pretty long. Maybe we should just cruise this thing over to my house. You two can come too if you want" he added to me and Callie.
"Hold it" Leo called running over. "Eddy told me you three snuck; you are all coming with me"
"No we're not" Bree argued.
"Oh yes you are" Leo said back.
"You can't tell us what to do" Chase argued crossing his arms.
'Yeah you're not the boss of us" Adam agreed.
"I don't if you remember but Mr. D put us in charge" I said pointing form me to Leo to Callie. Then we all started talking at once each others argument overlapping the others. Until finally Leo shouted over the rest of us.
"Okay, I am warning you. Do not make me call for back up… because my only back up is already here" he pointed to Callie and me.
"Guys, they're right. I don't want you to get in trouble. Maybe you should go home. But at least grab some yogurt before you go. I'll watch the car"
We all started to walk away but then it all clicked and I stopped "oh no you don't" I grabbed Leo's wrist and tugged him back over to the car with me. I swatted Marcus's hand away from the car "I see what you're doing, you aren't going to lay a slimy finger on this car"
"Yeah beat it eyebrows." Leo nodded and got into the driver's seat.
I walked over to the passenger's side and opened the door "Actually Cassie you really shouldn't get in there' Marcus tried to pull me away.
"I'll do whatever I want" I hopped in and shut the door.
Leo and I were automatically buckled in "Door closed. Acquiring fastest route to the bottom of the pacific ocean" the lady voice said.
Marcus tugged and tugged on my door "I told you not to get in there" he shouted. "God my dad is so not going to be happy"
"Okay we need to get out of here" we each tugged on everything trying to get loose.
"Safety locks engaged" the lady car voice said "departing in three… two… one" then the car sped off.
"Stop!" Leo shouted.
"Your final destination is the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and cannot be over ridden. Would you like to hear some music until we arrive?" the car asked.
"No!" Leo and I both shouted.
"You said disco" I groaned as that god awful genre started to play through the speakers.
Callie's POV
When we walked back over to where Marcus was the car was gone and so were Leo and Cassie.
"Um where's Leo and Cassie?" Bree asked.
"More importantly where's the car" Chase paused when he realized what he said. He turned to me "don't tell Cassie I just said that.
"Even more importantly where are all the napkins?" Adam asked walking over.
"Here" I held out a couple of napkins.
"Leo and Cassie probably went for a joy ride' Marcus told us. "I'll just call my dad to pick us up. He's been dying to meet you all" Marcus said to us.
Then Bree's phone went off "It's Leo" Bree told us before she held the phone to her ear "Leo where are you? Is Cassie with you?" Bree looked at the phone then at us "Guys Leo and Cassie are in trouble we have to go help them. Sorry, Marcus we gotta go"
"Wait you can't go" Marcus shouted.
"Why not?" I asked confused.
"We haven't taken a picture with the froyo-a-go-go-do-do!
"Oh right" Adam pulled out his phone and snapped a picture of him and Marcus with the Froyo guy. "Now we're good" Adam said as we dragged him off to a corner where no one could hear us.
"Cassie. Hey, are you good?" Chase asked after Bree put the phone on speaker.
"Just peachy" came Cassie sarcastic voice.
"Hey Leo, the left pedal is called a brake. Take your foot and step on it" Adam shouted into the phone.
"Don't you think I would've tried that" Leo said also very sarcastic.
"Hey if you can't be polite this conversation is over" Adam tried to hang up but I tugged the phone away.
"Adam I swear to god if you hang up you will lose both your legs" Cassie threatened.
Chase took the phone "Cassie calm down, I'm going to use your cell signal to locate the car with my bionic GPS" Chase told her. He raised his finger to his temple and looked up "Got it! Taylor Avenue and 28th"
"I'll use my super speed to catch up to the car and pull them out" Bree told us before she sped off.
Cassie's POV
Looking out the passenger window of the speeding car I said everything I saw "Tree. Tree. Sign"
"Were speeding towards the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and your playing a road game?" Leo asked exasperated.
"It helps me relax" I started looking out Leo's window "Tree. Pole. Bree." I paused "Bree?!"
"Open the door" Bree called over the wind.
Leo tugged on the locked door handle "I can't"
"Child safety lock is always on for passengers under the age of nine" the car told us.
I laughed at the face Leo pulled 'I'm 14"
"You are very small for your age" the car insulted.
"Look for the emergency brake" Bree called to us.
"Maybe this is it" Leo said placing his hands on a large switch.
"Leo I don't think-"
"Turbo boosters engaged" The car said cutting g me off. Then the car sped off faster sending Bree back.
"Why. Are. You. So. Stupid." I said emphasizing each word by hitting him on his arm.
Callie's POV
Bree came speeding back over covered in leaves but with no Leo or Cassie.
"What happened to you?" Chase asked as we walked over.
"You know those signs that say 'deer crossing'? They don't lie"
"What about Leo and Cassie?" I asked.
Bree shook her head "I couldn't get them. I don't know how were gonna stop that car"
"What, you don't think the ocean's gonna stop it?" Adam asked with a straight face.
I gave him a tight lipped smile "That's exactly what we think Adam"
"If the car's being driven by an internal computer system, maybe I can tap into it remotely and shut it down" Chase said then raised the phone to his ear "Hang on guys I'm gonna try something" then gave the phone to Bree. He looked up raising his fingers to his temple again then shot a blue beam into the sky.
"Great job babe, that was a lovely 14-point maintenance checklist, now all we need is an oil change and we're good to go" Cassie said sarcastically. Chase shook his head in defeat.
"Okay, the car won't let me tap into its CPU, but what if there was a way for me to block its satellite signal?" Chase asked rhetorically.
"But is your force field powerful enough?" Bree asked.
"Well, yeah, but I'd have to surround the entire car, which is miles away and moving fast. I could never throw that far" Chase admitted.
"You can't but I can!" Adam said posing.
"Yes, you can! If I can calculate the distance, arc, and force necessary to launch, I can guide your arm and use your strength to hurl the force field at the car"
"Ah, so it's like a bionic-bro combo! A bro-motion! A bro-tation! A super bionic bro-chacho-"
"Just hurl the stupid thing already" I shouted cutting off Adam.
"Hurry! Hurry!" Leo called through the phone.
"Okay, we've only got one chance. You gotta think of it like a basketball. We're shooting a full court shot across 98 courts that are moving at 125 miles per hour" Chase said losing confidence with each word.
Adam paused "Yeah, numbers, numbers. Blah, Blah, blah, blah, blah, just tell me what I'm chucking"
"Guys I'm sorry. You're trying to rescue me when I'm supposed to be protecting you. But I guess I wasn't a very good enforcer" Leo said
"No you weren't" Adam said bluntly.
"Hey, Chase" Cassie said through the phone "I love you"
"No don't say it like that, I will save you and Leo" Chase promised.
Chase looked up to Adam "Let's do this" Chase created a force field and looked to Adam "Get on your knees' Adam got down and Chase placed the force field in his hands. And pulled back like it was a catapult. Chase paused looking up before he released it sending both of them to the floor on top of each other.
Bree snapped a picture of them "I don't know what that was, but it's going on my profile page"
Chase and Adam scrambled up from the ground "let's see if it worked" Chase offered. He pulled up a hologram of the force field hitting the car and bringing it to a complete stop. "It worked. The car stopped"
"Yes!" I shouted relieved.
"Let's go get them" Bree said then super sped us all to the car.
When we got there Chase ran over to the car and opened the door, immediately Cassie hopped out and flung her arms around Chase.
"God I love you so much" Cassie mumbled into Chase's shoulder but I was close enough to hear.
"Infinity times infinity?" Chase asked.
"Infinity times infinity" Cassie repeated.
"Lovely reunion folks but we should get this home before Davenport realizes it's missing" Bree said. We all nodded and got into the car heading home.
When we got to the house and hopped out of the car this is the first thing Leo said:
"You guys may have saved my life, but you also almost ended it. So you're not off the hook. I'm gonna be on you like yogurt on Adam's shirt"
I rolled my eyes "Come on Leo, give them a break"
Adam licked the stain on his short "hmm. That is not yogurt"
"Hey!" Mr. Davenport shouted as he walked in. "Do you guys have any idea how much trouble you're in?" we all tensed "I told you three feet away at all time and no breathing on the windows"
We all sighed in relief and left the garage.
Cassie's POV
That night Leo went and made us each a plate of cookies and milk and I flopped on the couch.
"Almost dying can wear a girl out" I said just before the doorbell rang.
Leo whistled as he answered the door, he opened it and I leaned over and made a sound of disgust when I saw Marcus. "Oh, hey. Perhaps we haven't made this clear but we don't like you" Leo greeted and I nodded in agreement before Leo shut the door.
Marcus walked in anyways "Leo, Cassie. I am so happy you're home safe! I can't believe you two almost ended up at the bottom of the ocean!"
I stood up as Leo asked "wait, how did you know where the car was set to go?"
Marcus paused "I didn't?" he raised his eyebrow.
I scoffed "If you set the coordinates why didn't you want me in the car"
"Well, I can't let that pretty blonde head of yours getting hurt" Marcus caressed my cheek.
I swatted his hand away "Ew"
"Wait, so you sabotaged the car?" Leo asked. Marcus rolled his eyes "You programmed that car! I'm gonna tell Davenport!" I nodded and went to follow Leo but green lasers went flying over our shoulders and blew up the toaster, and I froze in my spot.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" Marcus said evilly. I turned back to him, he raised an eyebrow "That was a warning shot, the next one won't be"
"You? With-th…" Leo trailed off.
"And the whole…" I trailed off gesturing to the toaster.
"Surprise! I'm bionic just like Adam, Bree, and Chase" Marcus admitted.
"And you know about…" I trailed off again.
"Okay you are just dropping bombs everywhere, man!" Leo shouted.
"You tell anyone and the whole world will now about your family's little secret" Marcus threatened. "Adam, Bree, and Chase will be taken away. Davenport would be ruined forever." Marcus scoffed "You know, I'd hate to see your family torn apart because of your big mouths" Marcus poked Leos chest then pointed to me, making his eyes glow green.
"Hey Marcus what's up" Chase greeted as he, Adam, Bree, and Callie walked in.
"Oh, hey guys I just stopped by to make sure Leo and Cassie were okay"
'How sweet is this guy?" Adam said.
"You okay Cassie" Chase asked slipping an arm around my waist.
"Yeah you two don't look so good" Callie noted at the face Leo and I were wearing.
We looked to the three of them then to Marcus "Yeah I'm good" Leo nodded.
"Just perfect" I lied.
Callie's POV
Down in the lab I was hanging with Adam, Bree, and Chase. Leo and Cassie hit the hay early; I guess almost dying tired them out.
"Guys, you forgot to gas up davenport's car!" Adam said as he walked into the lab form the garage. "Luckily I was smart enough to fill it up with the gas can in the garage"
"Adam, it's an electronic car" Chas e told him "It doesn't take gas! One spark and that thing could-"
"Oh boy" Bree cut him off.
"This is so not good" I mumbled rubbing my forehead.
"Hey, guys, I'm gonna go for a drive" Mr. Davenport said walking in, he held up his keys.
"No!" we all shouted to try and stop him but were to slow, for the awesome car blew up.
Mr. Davenport looked at the giant hole in the wall and screamed.
"Well, at least he doesn't know we drove it" Adam said to us. Mr. Davenport screamed again running into the garage.
