(An the team building episode. Always loved it. It is a classic one! Anyway, here we go! I don't know if you'd think these characters would get along so soon, but I didn't think so. Also, I just love writing Randy. He's a funny little boy! Same with Star. Enjoy!)

          "We aren't even a team!" Danny pointed out as he looked at Randy, "Sure, we did work together, but that's it. We don't even know anything about each other"

Randy was about to say something when Kim placed her drink on the table to startle them. They looked at her who held a serious expression as they quieted down.

"I agree with Danny. We don't know each other. Also, we can't just become heroes either. We have to live our lives too. I'm sorry, but I am not doing this" Kim said as she stood up, picked up her drink, and turned away from them, "It was nice to meet you and good luck to you"

She waved goodbye to them as Randy glared at her.

"How can she just walk away from this?!" he exclaimed as he gestured to her.

"Like this" Danny answered simply as he picked up his drink and papers, "I've got more important things to do then this. Besides, you two can handle this. see ya"

He left as Randy grabbed his bobba and drank it. He couldn't believe them! How could they walk away from this?! As for Star, she had kept the book and was examining it. There was something strange about it. Well, stranger than it let on. She couldn't open it and tried to find some noticeable markings. She wondered where the book even originated from. She heard a phone buzz and saw Randy pick up his phone.

"Oh? Really? Ok, I'm coming" he answered as he put his phone away.

Star looked at him as he answered calmly, "Oh, don't worry. Howard told me my stuff arrived at his and Heidi's place. I'm just going to put it away. You can come if you want"

Randy put his satchel on as he offered his hand to her. Star didn't have anything else to do, os she took his hand and decided to go with him. Though, she did text her boyfriend about where she was going before leaving with Randy.

Meanwhile, Danny was reading his resume as he walked along the sidewalk. He groaned at the idea of Randy getting a job straight out of college when he couldn't find any when he graduated.

"Let's see..." he pondered as he took out his phone to see the job listings, "Flynn Findings? What kind of an engineering place is this?"

He followed the address and looked at his phone to make sure he was going the right way. Unbeknownst to him, someone was carrying a large box filled with all kinds of machine parts. Neither were looking the way they were going and crashed into each other!

"Ow!" they exclaimed as the machine parts scattered around them.

Danny rubbed his head as the person in front of him held his face. Once Danny recovered, he got a good look at his face. He dark skinned and had a pair of scientific glasses. He wore a white lab, yellow shirt, tan pants, and simple sneakers. He even had a red hat on his head. Danny noticed the machine parts laying around themselves. Danny picked up one and recognized it from the robots he and the others fought! But he also realized that the wiring was off and could be adjusted so that the wires do not transfer the energy to the self-destruction button.... Why would someone do this?

"Oh! Hey! Careful with that!" he exclaimed nervously as he snatched it from Danny's hands, "Dr. Flynn wants to make sure nothing is too broken with these machine parts!"

"Sorry, but the wiring is just weird. I couldn't help it. Oh! Are you working for him? I'm here to apply for a job!" Danny asked as he helped gather the parts and put it back in the box, "My name is Danny"
