-The James'-

Delta's POV:

I woke up this morning, took a shower, washed my hair, and went downstairs to pack my back pack. When I finished writing a few 'guesstimates' in for my math homework, I stuffed it into my text book which was stuffed into my bag. There was a small knock at the door before Adam just opened it and came right in. It's what I do at his house. We just walk right in. 

"Hey, Del." He cheekily smiled. 

"Hey, ready to go?" I kissed him, putting my bag over my right shoulder. He just smiled. "You're still obsessing over seeing me shirtless the other day aren't you?" I smiled. 

"No....yeah...." He smiled, causing me to roll my eyes and head to school with him. 

-Mission Creek High-

Adam, Zadie, Chase, Leo, and I were hanging out on the circular bench in the middle of the hallway when Bree walked out of the main office. "Hey, did you guys know we had a study abroad program?"

"Why would I go to another country to do something I don't do here?" Adam asked. 

"That's a good point." Zadie agreed. 

"Look, it says you get to spend a whole semester at a high school in Australia." Bree presented the pamphlet. "And guess what? I applied."

"Australia?" Zadie gaped. "Do you know how large the spiders are there? They eat snakes. There are snake eating spiders there." 

"Anyways...that's really cool, Breezer." I smiled, patting her arm. 

"Kelly Porter went last year. She got sucker punched by a kangaroo." Leo told her. 

"Well, alright. I guess we're going to Australia." Adam assumed. 

"Uh, no, no, no, no. Now way. This is my thing. I can finally be on my own, I can study, travel, make new friends." Bree fantasized. 

"Yeah, Zadie thought the same thing. Look where she ended up." I remarked. 

"With the same bunch of losers since first grade." She fake-ly smiled back. 

"I hate to be a wet blanket..." Chase started. 

"No you don't." Zadie deadpanned. 

"But Mr. Davenport is never gonna let you do this. You can't go on missions if you're halfway across the world." 

"Well, sure I can. I mean, I haven't figured out all the details yet, but there's gotta be a way to make it work." Bree hoped. 

"Not unless these two can unlock a new ability to make up for you not being here." Leo told her. 

"Ooh, or maybe I can unlock an ability where I disappear and reappear somewhere else." Adam thought, standing up. Isn't that geo-leaping? "Let me try." He balled his fists and held his hands out in front of him and grunted for a few seconds before reopening his eyes. "Did it work?" 

"You didn't do it long enough. Try it again; this time, more grunting." Chase said, motioning for us to follow his lead and go on the other side of Adam. "You did it!" He shouted when Adam opened his eyes and turned back around. 

When we left school for the day, we of course went over to the Davenport's and hung out. We had just finished watching a movie that had juggling in it and Zadie had claimed she knew how to juggle so we were currently debating whether she could or not. 

"You wanna see it?" She asked, standing up and going to the kitchen where she came back with three oranges. Well, sure enough, she can! 

"When, where, and why did you learn to juggle?" Chase asked her.
