Another round of high-fives to Dirtkid123, LabGirl2001, LRW, Lady Cougar-Trombone (Oh, you did? That's awesome!), and AlienGhostWizar14 for answering correctly! Clayton Harrington was in The Bionic 500. Great job, you guys!

Okay, I forgot to mention earlier that the two recent chapters were the main farewell chapters to the OCs. 67 was for Amaranth, and 68 was for all of Leo's friends. They'll still be mentioned on the last entry, but - you know what I mean.

Shorter one because Space Colony was already packed with goodness.

So we just came back days ago from a family vacation out into space, and the verdict is clear: I do NOT want to do that again. It just left such a bad taste. It was cool in the beginning, especially with the ship that we got to travel in and getting a chance to experience being in hyperspeed. Not only that, it's been a while since we all did something together. Spending some time out on a high-tech colony on a planet that Big D discovered made it all the better. It should have been a dream vacation, but it ended up as a stuff of nightmares.

First, there was that phony warning of the satellite being messed up. Things just started going downhill from there. While Adam, Bree, and Chase were away, Big D and I had to fix the damage on the dome. Meanwhile, from what they told me, Chase ended up drifting into a dangerous and toxic planet after something went wrong with their repair work so Adam and Bree had to rescue him.

The biggest shocker in all of that weirdness, though, (as if there weren't enough of it) was when we found out that Krane was alive. That guy. He just wouldn't quit.

To add to that, he put Big D, Mom, and the rest of the colonists under the Triton app so he could use them for his plans. It's so sick. I was worried about Mom, too, after he and this guy named Dr. Gao told us about liquid bionics and how they worked. She told me weeks before we left that she's been feeling really sick. She's been throwing up a lot in the mornings, I think, and gets queasy easily when she smells certain food. We figured she might have some stomach virus of some kind, which may not have reacted well to that green glow stick concoction if it had been given to her.

Thankfully, being a movie junkie, I was prepared. I wasn't going to go out there without something to protect us. I knew better than that.

Unfortunately, defeating Krane and blowing up their stash didn't cut it, which led to one of the most embarrassing, most disgusting moments of my life: Triton app. Gao put me under that stupid app. Just – no. No. Why? I mean, I'm confident that I can handle myself against enemies when it comes down to it, but even I wouldn't pit me against my own siblings. And three of them against one? That just wasn't the smartest things to do.

I guess it's kind of funny when I think about it that way, but it's also annoying. Adam, Bree, and Chase have yet to let me live down that sleepwalking incident, and now I have this new one to deal with. They're gonna have another reason to make fun of me. I'm glad I didn't get to remember everything that happened because I'm sure it was pretty sad. They did tell me not to worry about it when I apologized later on, but I just know that whole thing will come back as a joke some time down the line.

On a serious note, though, Chase asked me yesterday how I felt when I was under the app. I told him I couldn't remember because I blanked out. "It kinda makes you feel dirty, doesn't it?" he had asked, and I admitted that it does. I mean, what person would want to lose control of everything and be manipulated into doing awful things? He then told me not to feel bad about it because it had never been my fault. They don't blame me, so I shouldn't feel guilty. I told him I appreciated that.

But, to be honest, I do feel bad, but it's because I didn't tell him or anyone else the full truth. I wasn't lying when I said I couldn't remember the fight, but I think there were moments afterwards where I snapped out of it. They were quick moments, but I remember them. Those brief flashes of awareness were kind of like when a person suddenly wakes in the middle of the night because of a weird feeling: I'm awake one moment and then out the next. It's probably because my brain was still trying to fight the app.

What stands out to me the most was what Gao said while he was detained in the back of the ship. I'm still not sure if it was just a dream or if it really happened. He was yelling, angry, but since Perry was listening to her music, playing it in full blast while she lounges on a chair as she guarded him, she couldn't hear him. I think I was supposed to be sleeping on a bench nearby, but, like I said, it seemed like I was in one of those awake moments at the time.

I couldn't remember exactly what Gao was saying, but I know he was throwing shade at the human race again. Inferior people, should've been dead, blah blah blah. Then, he said something really alarming, and he was directing it to me. He said all of their plans rest on me now. He told me never to tell anyone where I'm keeping the last vial of the liquid bionics, because it's our only ace. His next words were blurry. Then, he said my family and I can't live our lives anymore without looking over our shoulders because something big was coming. That was the last thing I heard before I fell back to sleep.

That really bothers me because lately, I do feel like there's something around the corner. It's not necessarily Gao and whatever his plans are, but it's something else. Something that was buried for a long time and is on its way to coming back. I don't know what it is. I'm not sure if we can stop it.

You know what's worse, though? I think I do remember hiding the vial Gao was talking about. I think I know where it is.

Signed,
