"Hey, can I use this? I need a place to store my toenail clippings." Adam said as he held up a glass jar. The five of them were in the lab that morning, getting ready for school.

"You save your toenails?" Leo asked.

"Of course. They're nature's toothpicks." Adam said.

"You don't even want to know what he flosses with." Bree said.

"You really don't." Adam said as Leo and Jodie looked at him.

"Hey, get away from that!" Chase said, grabbing the glass from Adam. "It's not empty! There are thousands or metalic nanobots in there!" Chase explained.

"Well, then why can't I see them?" Adam asked.

"It means that they're microscopically small." Jodie said, hopping off the table.

"But Chase is microscopically small and I can still see him." Adam said.

"Nanobots are so tiny, they're invisible to the human eye. Here, I'll show you. Put these on." Chase said and handed Adam a pair of special glasses.

"Whoa!" Adam exclaimed as he looked at the nanobots.

"They function like mini-doctors inside the humn body. When patients swallow them, they'll seek and destroy any diseased cells or forein matter." Chase explained.

"Ooh! I got a tenis ball and a mini Statue of Liberty somewhere in my gut. It's time to swallow a search party." Adam said and grabbed the jar.

"Adam, no! Those are valuable!" Chase said.

"Come on, Leo, we don't want to step on broken glass." Bree said.

"What broken glass?" Leo asked.

"Gimme!" Chase said and started fighting with Adam over the jar while Jodie tried to stop both of them. The three eventually managed to drop the jar, shattering it on the floor.

"Right." Leo said as he and Bree walked out of the lab.

Adam put the glasses back on and watched as the nanobots scattered around the floor. "Oh ho ho, man! Those little guys sure run fast!" Adam beamed.

"If we lose these, Mr. Davenport will kill us. Great! Once again, I have to clean up your mess. Just don't step on them." Chase said.

"Hey, dude, I got this. I'll just grab a paper towel and pick 'em up." Adam said and walked across the nanobots.

"Adam!" Both Chase and Jodie said as they heard a crunching noise.

"Yeah, you're right. Better get the vacuum instead." Adam said and walked back across the nanobots.

"Stop!" Chase and Jodie said, trying to stop the eldest Davenport from walking across the nanobots.

"I hear ya. Better grab the mop." Adam said and again walked back across the nanobots and left the lab.

"You're gonna faint on me one of these days." Jodie said as she tried to calm her raging boyfriend.

"Why is Dewey the Dingo out in the the hallway?" Jodie asked as her and the bionic boys walked into school.

"Uh, I don't know, but I think it means we get six more weeks of winter." Adam said, making the other two superhumans look confused.

Just then, the lights in the hallway dimmed and a spotlight appeared.

"Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the principal, a four-foot-eleven spitfire from Portland, Maine. Terry Perry!" Perry said, introducing herself.

Perry then ran out from her office in a sweat band while high-fiving various students. Even tried to high-five Adam, but he was too tall for her to reach. She then stopped in front of Dewey the Dingo, making the lights go back to normal.
