~ This is the longest chapter of the story so I hope that means it gets lots of helpful reviews. It is also the birthday of the story (and me).

~ I'm going to have another chapter before Avelanche, but I'll explain that at the end.

ENJOY!

GENERAL POV

It has been about a week since everything happened. Marcus was destroyed, although Dani tried to secretly repair him. She also lost her father, even though he was still alive. Although she did gain her siblings, which she wanted for her whole life, she felt alone. The two people she grew up with were gone, although one was just MIA.

Almost every time Dani tried to sleep, she kept having nightmares. She kept seeing the ceiling of her old lab fall and crush her brother. She always cried out for Marcus, but it always ended the same. After the same point at each time of the nightmares, she got out of sleep and walked around a little. She usually found herself outside on the balcony of her new house. The night breeze usually helped her and she would fall asleep outside.

One night she was only outside for a little bit and went back inside. She eventually fell asleep on the couch, with a blanket she had gotten from Marcus before everything happened. It was one of the things she managed to bring over from her old house. As soon as she managed to sleep, her invisibility started to glitch on her own and made her and the blanket invisible.

Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo slowly opened the front door, careful not to make a sound. They tip toed all the way to the kitchen, trying not to make a sound.
"BUSTED!" Donald yelled and the four of them jumped. They all turned around, not seeing anyone. Donald took off the invisibility cloak and they screamed again. "HA!" He got up and pointed at the kids.
"I don't get it." Chase asked, confused. "I scanned the room."
"Mm-mm and I foiled you with my invisibility cloak." Donald said and tossed the cloak on the couch. He didn't notice that it was covering Dani, who was still invisible and sleeping on the couch. "Again, I say HA!"
"Well, you got us." Leo said. "Goodnight." The four teens quickly started towards the lab.
"Freeze!" Donald said. They all stopped and turned back towards him. "You are all grounded. Three weeks."
"What?" Leo asked.
"That's not fair." Chase said, upset that he wouldn't be able to go to the movies.
"Come on." Bree groaned, wanting to go to a birthday party.
"Is that all you got?" Adam asked and his siblings looked at him, silently telling him to shut up. The five of them didn't notice that Dani was now visible on the couch, still sleeping despite the yelling.
"Look, you guys have no idea what it's like raising teenagers." Donald said to the four teens that were awake.
"He can't ground me if he can't see me." Adam said to his siblings before running to the couch. He grabbed a blanket, put it over himself and ran into the front door. "I didn't grab the invisibility cloak, did I?" Adam asked and everyone shook their head.

Chase looked at the invisibility cloak and was the first to realize that Dani had been asleep on the couch the whole time.
"Has she been sleeping the whole time?" Chase asked and then the others realized that Dani was sleeping. Donald looked at her and noticed that her invisibility was glitching as she slept. 'I need to finish her capsule' He thought to himself.
"Adam, can you carry her to her room?" Donald asked Adam since he was the strongest. Adam nodded his head after taking the blanket off his head. He easily picked up his youngest sister. Dani moved her head so her face was against her brother's chest. As Adam started towards the stairs, Leo followed because his bedroom was upstairs.

After Adam put his sister on her bed, he went down to the lab to sleep in his capsule. Leo had changed into pajamas, but went into Dani's room. He could tell that she was glitching because she kept going from visible to invisible. Leo sat in a chair that was in her room and eventually fell asleep.

Dani eventually woke up and saw the sun shining in her room. It took her a little while to realize that she was back in her room. 'They must of saw me' She thought to herself and moved her hand in front of her. Her invisibility was still glitching, but at the moment only with her hands. Dani looked around and saw Leo sleeping in a chair. She couldn't help but just look at him, at how peaceful he looked. Dani couldn't help but through a pillow at him, which woke him up.
"What was that for?" Leo asked and Dani shrugged.
"I used to do it with..." She stopped before saying Marcus's name. "Never mind." She quickly added before Donald appeared at her doorway.
"Oh good, you're up." Donald said when he saw Dani sitting on her bed. "I have good news. I just finished your capsule so you'll be able to stabilize your bionics." Dani gave her uncle a small smile before he looked at Leo. "Breakfast time." Donald said to Leo, who looked at Dani before leaving the room.

When Dani and Donald were alone, Donald sat on Dani's bed.
"I'm sorry about what happened." He said to Dani and she just nodded.
"I didn't think that he'd go that far." Dani whispered, even though she knew about how evil her dad's business partner was.
"It's okay now." Donald said as he hugged his niece.
"Could you leave me alone for a little bit?" Dani eventually asked and Donald nodded his head. Dani watched Donald leave her room.

Dani just sat in her bed by herself, ignoring her glitching invisibility. She couldn't help but feel a few tears leave her eyes as she thought of her dad and Marcus. She took a deep breath, wiped them away and got up to take a shower.

After her shower, Dani walked to the lab. On the way she grabbed a banana from the kitchen.
"It's a floating hand with a banana!" Adam said as he pointed to the door. Bree, Chase, and Leo all looked to see the rest of Dani becoming visible.
"It's just a glitch." Dani said before Bree jumped from her seat to hug her sister. "They suck." The others noticed that Dani wasn't her usual happy funny self, which worried them a little. They knew it was because of Marcus and her dad, who was also their dad. They saw Donald as their dad though seeing as Douglas tried to control them. "Is that one mine?" Dani asked as she pointed to the newest capsule. Bree gave her a nod before Dani went towards it.

The capsule was a little bit away from the others because there wasn't enough for all four together. It was the same size and connected to the lab's systems. Dani opened the door, closed it and just stood in it. She could tell that it was stabilizing her bionics, even from a little bit. Bree sat back with the others and continued their game of cards.
"Do you want to play?" Chase asked his twin sister.
"Sure." Dani said and used molecular kinesis from inside the capsule to bring some cards in front of her.
"You don't have to stay in there you know..." Leo said.
"I do if I want my bionics stabilized." Dani said. "When you go a week or longer without a capsule to stabilize the bionics, then you'll start to glitch uncontrollably." She explained and the others were surprised. Her siblings never knew what they were just told. "It's happened to me a couple of times because I'd rather sleep in a bed than a capsule." She added before taking another bite of the banana.
"Do you have any 2's?" Leo asked Dani, which made her realize they were playing Go Fish. She used her kinesis to send one of the 2's from her cards to Leo.

After a hour of playing Go Fish from inside her capsule, Dani got out and sat with the others. She could tell that her bionics were stabilized enough for the day. She didn't like being inside the capsule for some reason.
"I hate being grounded." Adam groaned as he put a card on the table. "Is the three weeks over yet?"
"It hasn't even been a day..." Bree said to him.
"Why are you guys grounded?" Dani asked, not knowing her siblings had gotten grounded.
"We snuck out to see a movie past curfew." Leo said as he put a card down.
"Next time don't get caught." Dani said like it was the easiest thing in the world.
"Says invisagirl." Chase said, semi teasing his twin.
"Whatever...boy wonder." Dani said and gave her twin a small smile. Chase was about to say something but Donald ran into the lab.
"Guys! Guys! I did it. I finally did it." He said when he stood at the table by the others.
"Graduated to big boy shoes?" Leo asked and Dani had to hold back a laugh. She found it funny, but tried not to laugh at her uncle.
"No." Donald said with a straight face. "I finally achieved something I wanted my whole life. I won the presidential medal for scientific achievement."
"That's great." Chase said to Donald.
"I think I got one those for doing pull-ups in gym class." Adam said and Dani shook her head. If there was one of many things she would have to get used to, it was living with her oldest brother every day.
"I don't think so." Donald said to Adam.
"You're right. It was push-ups." Adam said as he put a card down at the same time as Dani.
"It is the highest honor a scientist can receive." Dani explained before Donald could. Donald just gave a nod, a little surprised that Dani knew what it was.
"My picture's going to be plastered online and offline. If there's a line, my face is going to be on it." Donald said with excitement.
"Like your ego needs to be bigger." Dani mumbled to herself, but Chase was the only one that heard because of the bionic hearing.
"What did you win it for?" Chase asked.
"My neural scrambler." Donald said as he held up the scrambler. "This thing is going to revolutionize the field of neurology."
"Huh?" Adam asked, confused.
"The brain." The twins said at the same time.
"Ohh..." Adam said, even though he still didn't understand.
"How does it work?" Leo asked Donald after picking up a card.
"It can erase specified time increments of neural associations in the cerebral cortex." Donald said to the five teens.
"Huh?" Adam asked again.
"The brain." The twins answered at the same time, again.
"Ohh... "
"Basically it helps doctors erase bad memories." Donald said in simple terms, so even Adam would understand.
"Oh, that's cool." Bree said, finally speaking up since Donald had came into the lab. "Does it erase all memories or can it zero in on that..." Bree pointed to her two brothers. Dani considered asking it it could erase how she lost Marcus, but she knew she couldn't secretly repair him if she forgot how she lost him.
"Congrats, Donald I got your text about the presidential award." Tasha said as she walked into the lab. "Gosh this is so exciting. What a big break for us."
"Us?" Donald asked his wife.
"I was thinking I could interview you for my TV station. 'Local reporter lands presidential award winner' A Tasha Davenport exclusive. This could be a really big break." Tasha said with a smile.
"Well, it would be a really big break for you." Donald said and he could see his wife's smile get smaller." I mean it would really help your faltering career." Her smile turned into a frown. "No, I mean you'd really get to cover something that finally matters." Tasha put her hands on her hips. "You know what? You have got yourself an interview." Her expression didn't change. "And a new pair of shoes? You know what...just take my whole wallet." Donald took out his wallet and his wife took it.
"Mhmm." Tasha couldn't help but look at Dani. "Dani..." Tasha said and Dani looked at her. "Would you like some retail therapy with his money?" Dani just shook her head, not really in the mood for shopping. Tasha decided not to say anything else as she left the lab.

Dani spent a while playing cards with her siblings. She went upstairs first, had a sandwich for lunch before re-reading a book about Doctor Who. Adam and Bree sat on the couch near her
"What is that about?" Bree asked her sister about the book.
"Its about the tv show Doctor Who." Dani said without taking her eyes from the pages. "I got it last year on my birthday." She added, trying not to think of her dad and Marcus.
"What's Doctor Who?" Adam asked and Dani looked almost mad.
"Only the best tv show ever...well next to Funeral Mishaps and Once Upon A Time." Dani said to her siblings before Leo joined then.
"Did someone say Funeral Mishaps?" Leo asked, excited. Bree and Dani looked at each other.
"No." They said at the same time before Adam relaxed into the couch.

It was at least a half hour later and Dani was still reading the book. Bree had gotten a magazine of hers while Adam and Leo started to play Jenga.
"Has it been three weeks yet?" Adam asked in a groan and Bree rolled her eyes.
"Stop." Bree said to her older brother. "I hate being grounded. I'm missing Stella Jordan's birthday party and I so wanted to be there when she doesn't get a car." Adam and Dani laughed a little as Chase ran up from the lab.
"Guys. I have an idea..." Chase said as Leo was pulling out a block. He surprised Leo and the Jenga tower fell.
"Hey!" Leo said to Chase, who just shrugged.
"What's your idea?" Dani asked her twin.
"We can use the neural scrambler to erase 24 hours of Mr. Davenport's memory."
"Wait. Sneaking in past curfew, disobeying authority, who are you and what have you done to Chase?" Bree asked her brother and Dani looked at him.
"No, I see where he's going with this." Adam said. "Mr. Davenport will forget he bought groceries yesterday, he'll go again today and we'll have double the food!" Dani couldn't help but smile a little at how excited her older brother got.
"Or... He'll totally forget he grounded us." Chase said to Adam.
"We'll see what one pans out." Adam just said.
"If you would have snuck in better, you wouldn't be grounded." Dani mumbled.
"Not all of us can be invisible." Chase said and Dani just looked at him. She reached her foot to Leo's back so that they were touching and she put her hand on Bree. Dani took a deep breath and made the three of them invisible.
"You were saying?" Dani asked before making them visible again.
"Show off." Adam muttered.
"Look, I think this is really risky if Davenport catches us, we'll be grounded for life." Bree said with concern to Chase.
"But if he doesn't, we'll never get grounded again." Chase pointed out the obvious.
"Plus, double the groceries." Adam said with excitement.
"Wait, so we're just going to zap the guy?" Leo asked.
"Don't worry." Chase said. "It's perfectly safe."
"How do you know?" Bree asked him.
"Bree, please I'm the smartest guy in the world."
"You have no idea, do you?" Dani asked before Bree could.
"Nope. Just want to get out of the house." Chase said and Dani showed off her invisibility again. "Okay..calibrating to 24 hours." Chase muttered to himself, not seeing that his twin was showing off.

Adam, Bree, Chase, and Leo walked over to Donald, who as sitting in a different room reading a book. Dani stayed on the couch but listened in with her bionic hearing.
"Hey there...whadda reading?" Chase asked, hiding the neural scrambler.
"Oh, Uh...I'm almost finished with this biography of the guy who was born I guess the cousin of the queen of Spain..." Donald started to say to the teens.
"Fascinating." Chase said, pretending to be interested before using the neural scrambler on Donald.
"That's weird...I just lost my train of thought." Donald said and the teens all looked at each other.
"Oh, Um...I just asked if I could take Dani to Stella Jordan's birthday party." Bree quickly said so Donald wouldn't get suspicious.
"Of course you can." Donald said to Bree. "She needs to get out."
"Yes, it worked." Leo cheered, which made Donald confused.
"What worked?" He asked.
"We just zapped your brain with your thing and erased your memory." Adam said which made Dani facepalm herself and Chase roll his eyes.
"Erased my memory?" Donald asked. "Have you guys been messing with my neural scrambler?" They could tell he was getting mad.
"No..." Bree said and quickly took the scrambler from Chase. "...set to 60 seconds." She mumbled to herself.
"That thing is not a toy. You guys are grounded for..." Before Donald could finish, Bree zapped him. "That's weird, Lost my train of thought."
"Hey, um...Can Chase and I go to the movies?" Leo asked as he put his arm around Chase's shoulder.
"Of course you can." Donald said.
"Stop while you're ahead." Dani muttered, hoping her twin was listening with his bionic hearing.
"Hey, I want to try this." Adam said and looked at the hummus.
"Try what?"
"Oh..Hummus." Adam stuck his hand in the hummus and licked his hand.
"Adam, don't do that. Now no one can eat..." Donald started to say but got zapped by the scrambler again "Oh..hummus." Donald put a chip in the hummus and ate it.
"And just like that, we're free." Chase said and was the first to start walking away.
"Later big D, we're going to the movies." Leo said since they weren't grounded anymore.
"Okay, be back by nine." Donald said to them.
"Yeah, nine...right." Leo said before the four teens stood by Dani.
"Come on..." Bree said to her. Dani marked the place in the book and looked at her three siblings.
"You're not going to give up unless I go, will you?" Dani asked and they all shook their heads.
"Nope." Adam said and Dani sighed.
"Okay..." Dani stood up from the couch with her book and walked out the house with them.

The next few days went by fast for Dani. Donald had her train with her siblings for the first time and she was more advanced than them. It was because of the training she did with Marcus, who was a tougher fighter than her siblings. Donald was also working on her mission suit for when he will let her join the others on missions.

Dani was on the couch after she finished her homework. She was done before everyone else because she used her super speed to finish early. Bree sat next to her and looked at what she was doing.
"What are you playing?" Bree asked her sister.
"Pokemon." Dani said without looking away from the screen. "I've been playing it ever since I can remember."
"That is soo cute." Bree said when the pokemon Eevee appeared on the screen.
"That's an Eevee." Dani said as Adam walked in the room and looked at the game. "It can evolve into seven different things." Bree was about to ask something when Leo ran into the room.
"Uh, guys. We have a problem." He said and the three of them looked at Leo.
"What is it?" Bree asked before they all heard a noise.
"Rocket chair!" Donald shouted as he zoomed through the room on a rocket chair.
"So what's the problem?" Adam asked, not understanding what happened.

After a few minutes, Chase joined the others in the living room. Donald was spinning in circles in the rocket chair. Dani saved her game and looked at Donald.
"Leo, what's going on?" Bree asked Leo, confused on why Donald was acting the way he was.
"You know that Neural thing that we were all playing with?" Leo asked.
"Yes..." Chase said at the same time Dani said "I didn't touch it."
"I tried to erase 24 hours and I accidently erased 24 years. He's 15!" Leo almost shouted, careful not to be loud enough for his mom to hear.
"Waoh!" Donald said as he stumbled off the chair. "This place is sick and now I'm going to be sick..." He went over to a plant and puked into it.
"I'm not cleaning that up." Dani muttered.
"I don't know why they gave him that presidential medal. This thing is faulty." Leo said with the scrambler in his hand.
"The device is fine. You're the problem." Chase said to Leo. "You Leo'ed this up."
"Hey, don't you turn my name into a verb." Leo said after Donald was done puking.
"Okay. Who are you people and how did I get here?" Donald asked the teens.
"Look, I know this is a lot for you to take in, but but your brain lost 24 years of it's memory because of a device you created." Chase said slowly and simply to Donald.
"Whoa..." Donald said before looking at the coffee table in front of them. "What's that?" He asked as he picked up a cell phone.
"That's my phone." Chase said and Donald's eyes widened a little.
"Whoa." Donald said and went off to the side as he played with Chase's phone.
"What are we going to do?" Chase asked the others. "Mr. Davenport is the only person who knows how the neural scrambler works."
"It can't be that difficult to figure out." Dani said before taking the scrambler from Leo.
"Guys, relax. Mr. Davenport can help us." Adam said as Dani looked at the scrambler.
"How?" Chase asked Adam.
"Easy. We just have to wait 24 years." Adam said and they all looked at him.
"Okay, look. We need to figure this out how to get our father back." Bree said, which made Dani sigh.
"He's not your father..." She muttered before Chase's phone started to ring.
"Hey...I think you got a phone call." Donald said and held out Chase's phone. Chase took his phone, pressed a button and was zapped. Dani looked at her twin and couldn't help but laugh a little along with the others. "Burn! I'm a total tech whiz! I took that thing apart and rewired it into a zapper." Adam and Donald high-fived each other.
"That's not funny." Chase said, not happy with what happened.
"It kinda is." Dani said, not holding back a smile.
"Turn it back." Chase said to Donald after he had looked at his twin.
"I'm sorry. Just press three and it'll turn back into a regular phone." Donald said but when Chase pressed the button, he got shocked again. "Double burn. This one...not too bright." Donald walked into the kitchen and started to look at stuff.
"Man, I like him much better this way." Adam said with a smile. "Can we keep him?"
"Adam, he's not a dog." Chase said before he looked at Donald.
"Oh, peanut butter." Donald said before sticking his tongue in a container of peanut butter.
"He's pretty much a dog." Adam said.
"We still can't keep him like this." Chase said before he noticed Dani going towards the lab.

Dani worked on the neural scrambler for a few minutes before Adam and Donald came into the lab. Donald started to take apart one of his inventions
"What are you doing?" Dani asked Donald, who didn't bother turning around.
"Making these lame things awesome." He said and Dani looked at Adam, who had a smile on his face.
"That's supposed to be a...never mind." Dani said, deciding not to stop Donald. She put the neural scrambler in a safer spot and helped Donald repurpose his inventions.

For the first time in weeks, Dani was genuinely having a good time. She was bonding with her oldest brother and doing one of the things she loved. Bree, Chase, and Leo walked into the lab and were surprised to see that Dani was smiling and that everything looked different.
"Guys, what are you doing?" Chase asked the three who were behind the cyberdesk. "You're ruining your million dollar technology."
"If by ruining you mean making awesome." Donald said with a smile.
"Unlike the other Davenport, this one invents cool stuff." Adam said
"Yeah-huh. Check this out. I took this useless thingy..." Donald started to say as he went next to something.
"Useless? That's an oxygen vacuum fire hose. It was going to revolutionize fire fighting." Chase said to Donald, but looked at his twin.
"Well, now it's gonna revolutionize grilled meat." Donald said as he looked at Chase.
"Kabob me Teen D." Adam said and held up a stick, which caught the meat. Dani held one up to and Donald shot some meat on her stick to. "See, I finally get science. This is saving lives." Adam said as Dani started to eat her kabab.
"So is this..." Donald said before pressing a button. A robotic arm moved and lifted Chase into the air, also giving him a wedgie. Dani put her hand to her mouth, trying to silence the laughter. "Why create an artificial arm when you can create a real life wedgie machine?"
"Science!" Adam and Donald said at the same time before high-fiving each other.
"Uh, what's in our capsules?" Bree asked when she saw that all four capsules were filled with something. They were each in a different colors.
"Capsules? You mean gigantic smoothie makers." Donald said and Dani gave a small smile.
"I finally get to use my gigantic straw!" Adam said. He got out his giant straw and drank from a capsule.
"Hello?" Chase asked, which made everyone look at him. "Can someone please get me down from here?"
"Sorry. Just push that little button on the back." Donald said to Chase, who pressed the button. He got zapped again, which caused Dani and Donald to laugh. "Funny every time." Donald said and Dani decided to be nice to her twin and let him down. Chase just gave a glare to his sister.
"Hey...it's funny." She said with a shrug before Tasha walked in. She looked around and saw that everything looked like a mess.
"What's going on?" Tasha asked before seeing Donald on the other side of the cyber desk. "Donald, why aren't you dressed for the interview? We go live at five."
"Live at five? Live at five? Dude, that totally rhymes." Donald said with a smile.
"Wait..the interview's today?" Bree asked, a little surprised that it was so soon.
"Yeah. I was hoping for national coverage, but get this...We are going world wide." Tasha said with a big smile.
"What?" All the teens asked and Dani spit out some food in surprise.
"A rep from the white house is flying out to present you with the medal during the interview." Tasha said. "We go live one hour from now." Dani saw Adam take out his phone and look at the screen.
"That's one hour from now." Adam said to everyone.
"It's going to be the highlight of my career." Tasha said, not knowing what Leo accidently did to Donald.
"It's definitely gonna go viral." Leo whispered to Dani, who tried not to laugh.
"I'm going to be on TV? Sweet. Kabab me!" Donald turned to Adam, who started the machine. The meat flew out and some hit Tasha in the face.
"Science!" Adam and Donald both shouted. Tasha looked at Dani and gave a small smile because she looked happy. She hasn't known Dani for long but already saw her as a daughter.

Dani stayed in the lab when the others went upstairs to prepare Donald for the interview. She set up a laptop so she could stream the interview when it started. She also cleaned up a little bit, but not too much because she was tinkering with some of the inventions.
"How's it going up there?" Dani asked Chase when he walked back down.
"I erased 11 more years..." Chase said before beginning to work on the scrambler.
"So he's four?" Dani asked, holding back a laugh. "I thought you're supposed to be a genius." Dani patted her twin's shoulder before the interview started.

Dani watched the interview as Chase worked on the neural scrambler. She found herself laughing at the four year old Donald, who was taking the interview.
"You really screwed this up." She said to her twin through her laughter. Chase didn't say anything because he was just glad his sister was happy after everything that happened. "Do you want any help with that?" She asked him.
"I'm a genius." Chase said and Dani shook her head.
"Yeah, a genius who erased 11 years from Donald's memory..." Dani shook her head "...let the twin geniuses work together." Dani said and gave a small smile. "I always wanted to say that." She added before they both worked on the scrambler.

Chase and Dani continued to work on the neural scrambler, trying to repurpose it so it would return Donald's memories. Dani looked up to see Donald being brought into the lab with Adam, Bree, and Leo.
"Am I in a spaceship?" The now four year old Donald asked. "Are those space bathrooms?" He asked when he saw the capsules.
"Sometimes." Adam said with a smile before Donald started to play with some toys.
"Hey, those are mine." Leo said to Donald as they started to go around the room. "Put those down."
"You're in trouble." Dani whispered to Chase when she saw Tasha walk into the lab.
"What is going on?" Tasha asked the teens after she saw what happened to the lab and Donald acting like a kid. "I want answers and do not lie to me. I'll know. Leo!"
"She'll know." Leo shouted as he tried to catch Donald.
"Okay." Chase said with a deep breath. "The neural scrambler erased 35 years of Mr. Davenport's memory. However, I think I can get it all back."
"You think? That white house rep is walking out of here with that medal if we don't get it together, not to mention I am blowing the biggest interview of my career." Tasha said to Chase. "Fix Donald. Leo!"
"Fix Donald!" Leo said before his mom went back upstairs to try and keep the rep from walking out.
"I got it." Chase said. "I..." Dani looked at him "We reversed the neural scrambler by taking it apart and repurposing it...just the same way Mr. Davenport did with his inventions. Which means You'll all get to sit down tonight because we saved your butts." Chase said and Dani just put her hand on his shoulder as Donald looked in a garbage can, thinking it could be a fort.
"Just do it!" Leo said as Adam and Bree helped take Donald out the garbage. Chase stood in front of Donald and used the neural scrambler.
"That's weird." Donald said after blinking. "Just lost my train of thought."
"How old are you?" Chase asked and Donald looked around the lab.
"Old enough to know that you numbskulls Leo'd up my lab." Donald said and Dani held her hands up in defence.
"Okay, that stops now." Leo said before Dani could defence herself.
"Hey, we didn't make any of this mess." Bree said to Donald. "It was all you."
"Technically, it was baby Davenport." Adam said.
"Well, technically it was teen Davenport." Dani said from behind the cyber desk.
"Baby? Teen?" Donald asked the four teens that were standing in front of him. "Have you guys been messing with my neural scrambler?"
"They have...not me." Dani said. "I'm innocent." Bree and Chase gave their sister a 'really?' look. "I'm not the one that got grounded." She said before beginning to clean up the rest of the cyber desk.
"Yes, yes we have." Leo said as he took a step closer to Donald. "But uh...in the end Big D, I think we learned a very very valuable lesson. You were right. It's not easy raising teenagers. Are we good?" Donald looked at him and pretended to think.
"No. You four are grounded forever." Donald said to them.
"I got this." Adam whispered to Chase as he took the scrambler from Chase. "Mr. Davenport...would you say you got angry about 30 seconds ago?" Donald took the scrambler from Adam so he couldn't use it.
"Oh, give me that." Donald said and saw that Dani was cleaning by herself. "Help Dani clean up." He said and tried to look better before going upstairs to help his wife save the interview.

"How do you not get in trouble?" Bree asked Dani.
"Because I'm a genius." Dani said to her sister with a smile.
"So am I." Chase said as he started to help clean up.
"Yeah, but who got grounded...not once but twice?" Dani asked and Chase pretended to look offended. All five teens started to clean together. Adam mainly drank from the capsules to clear out the smoothies. Dani couldn't help but smile to herself because the first time in weeks she was happy. She was cleaning, sure, but she was with her siblings. It was something she wanted all her live and she finally had it.

~ I am so glad that I got this chapter done and posted before I had to go to work. I'm going to be busy the rest of the day so I won't have time to write more.

~ Dani doesn't really do much in this chapter, but it was mainly to show the effects of Bionic Showdown. I'm going to do a small back-track and to Spike's Got Talent before doing Avalanche. It gives Dani some time to bond with her siblings before Avalanche...which I'm really looking forward to. Along with the newest episode because I already have it planned...even though that's not until season 3.

~ If you have any ideas for things you'd like to see, I'd like to hear them. Your ideas and feedback makes the story better.

R&R 'till the next update
