Y/N (POV)

Davenport decided to put me, Adam, Bree, and Chase into a training simulator. We are surrounded by a deserted, Bree runs and does an aerial cartwheel and starts to look around while the rest of us stay back into formation "Guys, I have a bad feeling. Let's get out of here."

Right as she said that opposers appear, Bree super speeds out of the way while Chase and I flip over and fight off two of them. We kick one over towards Adam where he decided to send the guy flying through the air causing an alarm to sound ending our training simulation.

"Adam, that was the Rebel Leader. The whole purpose of today's mission simulation was to interrogate him." Davenport says

Adam turns around "I did, and his answer was, Aaaaah!" he starts to act like he was thrown.

Bree walks over to Davenport "Hey, next time could you maybe throw in a cute, blue-eyed rebel? What? I'm just sayin'. It's not gonna kill you to add a little somethin'-somethin' for the ladies."

Leo starts to walk past all of us "Step aside, amateurs." he grabs a pair of goggles "Go ahead, Big D. Set it to "awesome." " he then starts to stand in a superhero pose.

Davenport rushes over to him "Leo, these goggles are not a toy." he gently takes them off and inspects them.

"Come on! My birthday's coming up—Globally known as "Dia De Leo." " Leo whines

"No, it's not" I shout

"Shut up" Leo snaps back

Davenport looks back at Leo "No. I designed the mission simulator to fine-tune their bionics, not to go on 3-D joyrides. Besides, you're not trained for it." Davenport then walks over to a panel

Leo walks after him "Well, how about as a birthday gift you give me a bionic ability?"

Davenport turns around "Or I could gift-wrap reality and you could play with that for a while." Davenport once again walks off.

Chase lets go of me and walks over to Leo "So Leo's having a birthday. What are you, like, nine?"

"Fourteen." Leo corrects him

Chase laughs "No, seriously." Leo looks at him with wide eyes.

"So how are you gonna celebrate?" Bree questions, causing us all to turn over to her.

Leo starts to get excited "We're all going to celebrate. Every year my mom throws me a big surprise party." He's not wrong Tasha loves to go all out on birthdays.

"Really?" Adam questioned

"Last year she baked a cake the size of me. I'm not gonna brag, but I was delicious." Leo starts to stare off into space.

"Okay while he is in la-la land I'm going to change out of this suit" I comment before turning over and walking out of the lab.

💫

I ran into Tasha while heading into the lab, I walk over to Adam, Bree, and Chase while Tasha walks over to Davenport "Guess what? I just found out that I won an award for my undercover reporting on expired produce: "Something In The Crisper Can Kill You." "

Davenport pulls Tasha into a hug "Congratulations! That's so great!"

"Oh, thank you. But the awards banquet is the same night as Leo's birthday. I'm sorry, honey. I'm gonna miss it. If I don't show up, I'm afraid that they're gonna give my award to that overdramatic screen hog Linda Montieres." She starts to make a mean face while say the girl's name.

Leo places a reassuring hand on her shoulder "It's okay, Mom. Go have fun. You deserve it" Leo starts to head towards us, Bree jumps down from the counter and pulls on Leo's shoulder "He-ey."
