I ran to the courtyard for a mission, saving my jump energy for the actual mission.  But Hargeeves only stopped me with a short

"Not today Five"

Outraged, I stormed back up to Vanya's room, even her beautiful music couldn't calm me down. How dare he? He gets Vanya hurt all for my training then won't even let me use it. Mkaing that entire ordeal useless. 

...

"Let's go" Her playfull grin suprised me, 

"Where?" I questioned only seconds later realising how idiotic I sounded. 

"Like you said, to Dad's office, race you! but NO powers." She proposed, prepared for vengeance. Normally I'd ignore the terms and cheat or 'adapt' but not with Vanya. She ran ahead but slid around a corner. Racing ahead and easily overtaking her, I looked back only to see her taking advantage of my crouched position and pouncing onto my back. Together we laughed and I ran with her on my back all the way to the door. 

Next thing I knew, I was chasing her down the street. How the tables have turned...

Finally, when she slowed down to a fast walk, I jumped to her.
