Adam Up

"Great job, guys. You just took out an entire unit or virtual cyborgs." Leo said as the four superhumans finished their training on the virtual training platfrom.

"I think it's sad that you have to invent people to play with you." Eddy said, appearing on the screen.

"All right Leo, we're off the clock. Let's get outta here." Adam said as he, Jodie and Leo started to walk away.

"Whoa whoa whoa! Just cause Mr. Davenport's away doesn't mean we stop training." Chase said, stopping the three from leaving, making the three groan. "How do you think I feel? I'm missing a four-hour documentary on the history of the Printing Press." Chase said.

"But Leo, Jo and I were gonna play human bull's-eye bounce... don't worry, it's way more dangerous than it sounds." Adam explained as the duo nodded.

"Human bull's-eye bounce. Is there any way you can get a good enough bounce to land in the emergency room? Cause that would save us a lot of time." Chase said.

"Nope. He's right, guys. As much as I enjoy watching you get hurt and- I really do- we have to train." Bree said.

"Oh, come on! The adults are away!" Jodie complained.

"If we don't take advantage by doing something destructive, we're no better than... Chase." Leo said.

"I'm sorry, but unless they can be in two places at once, they're training. Come on, let's get the bo staffs." Chase said.

"Oh, man, I never get to do what I want. It's not fair." Adam complained.

"Aww. Are all of your cool bionic abilities and top secret missions getting you down?" Bree said.

"Thanks Bree. I knew you'd understand." Adam said as his siblings walked away.

Jodie immediately duplicated herself. "All right me, you're going with them, I'll hang with Leo." Jodie said to her duplicate, who nodded and went after Bree and Chase. She then turned her attention to Leo and Adam.

"Sorry, guys." Adam said.

"Too bad you can't be in two places at once, like Jo." Leo said.

"Well, now he can! Cause it's time to play 'Eddy's Will It or Will It Not Blow Up In Your Face'." Eddy said and showed different images as the three walked over to the screen. "A riding mower, a set of barbecue untensils, or a cellular duplicator." Eddy said.

"Ooh, I really want to ride something on grass! But I do love the grill." Adam said.

A ticking sound came from Eddy's screen as the three discussed their options.

"Eddy, we're going with the cellular duplicator!" Jodie said. Her, Adam and Leo high-fived.

Eddy made a beeping noise. "Good choice! This lovely state-of-the-art device scans human DNA and creates a lifelike double using synthetic bioplasma!" Eddy explained.

"Too complicated. Go for the riding mower." Adam said.

"No. This is how we can make two of you. It makes a non-human twin out of a human." Leo explained.

"That's right. But be careful, it's not fully tested so there's a small chance it could go horribly wrong." Eddy said.

"Then, why are you telling us to use it?" Jodie asked.

"There's a small chance it could go horribly wrong." Eddy said.

"I'll give it a shot. Where is it?" Adam asked.

"I'll give you a hint." Eddy said, then shone a light on the device. Adam, Leo and Jodie walked toward the duplicator.

"How does it work?" Leo asked.
