McKayla was sleeping, when a few seconds before her alarm clock went off, a notification arrived on her cell phone.

McKayla opens her eyes because of the notification and then her alarm goes off, she turns it off and then sits up in bed to see the notification.

A message from Chase *Good morning :)* the message says, McKayla smiles at the phone *I just want to know if you're okay, after everything that happened. I don't want you to worry* another message arrives.

McKayla closes her eyes and whimpers throwing herself into the pillow again "why did he have to be so cute?" McKayla tells herself.

She thought a lot about this, before knowing about Chase's feelings, she was determined to ask him out just to try to find out if he liked her too, but now that has changed.

McKayla still really wanted to go out and tell Chase how she feels but it seems like everything in her life doesn't cooperate for her to do that with light conscience.

Firstly, Chase himself is facing a delicate situation with his family right now, and the same is happening with McKayla, her father still hasn't found a job and even with financial help from Brooke and Trent, it is very likely that she will have to drop out of dance classes, that is one of her biggest worries.

Plus her dad still doesn't like the idea of ​​her having feelings for Chase, and that's also a problem she would have to resolve before saying or doing anything about her feelings for him.

She looks at her cell phone and thinks, with a delicate smile, she doesn't necessarily need to tell him what she feels, but that doesn't need to stop her from spending fun moments with him, nor from enjoying his company.

She just needs to learn to deal with her feelings, which now seem stronger, but it's a matter of time.

She responds to the message and sighs, looking at the ceiling, with an excited smile that she contains by biting her lip.

At the Davenports' house.

Donald is trying to restore a lab invention on the kitchen counter and gets shocked by it "Great! Everything in the lab is officially useless, and I don't have enough money to repair it." Mr Davenport says.

"I know my mom didn't marry you for your money, but I haven't been putting with your antics for nothing." Leo says, Bree walks up to him "Mr. Davenport, take your time with the lab. I don't mind staying up here. Of course, it won't make up for living in a basement for sixteen years, but it's a start." Bree smiles.

"We don't have time. Your capsules have regenerative capabilities. They're crucial to your bionic infrastructures." Mr Davenport says "Huh?" Adam frowns in confusion "Let me help you. Capsule good!" Chase says in a deep mockly voice, Adam smiles and nods that he understands.

"But I haven't been in my capsule all week, and I feel fine." Bree says "Well, it's only a matter of time before your bionics go haywire." Mr Davenport says "Do you know when exactly? Because I have a haircut on Tuesday and if I glitch in the chair, I'm just gonna end up like that trainwreck." Adam gestures to Chase.

Chase looks at him irritated "I get it! I'm short, I look like a lady golfer, and I have a terrible haircut! What else you got?" Chase says irritated "Have you kissed McKayla or just dreamed about it?" Adam says, Bree and Leo laugh, Chase crosses his arms irritably and shyly.

"Look, the longer you go without your capsules, the more likely you'll glitch, so don't use your bionics until I can get enough money to rebuild the lab." Mr Davenport says "Uh oh, I feel a glitch coming on!" Adam punches Chase's arm.

"Ow! You know what? I feel one coming on too!" Chase pushes Adam off the stool, Adam quickly gets up "Hey, it's not funny when you hurt me. It's just rude." Adam says with an offended face.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In the living room.

Chase was texting McKayla *Without our capsules we can't use our bionics anymore or we'll glitch* Chase types.

Normally it wouldn't be safe to talk about bionics on a regular communication app, so Mr Davenport created a special and secure communication app for Adam, Bree, Chase, extremely similar to a common messaging app but with more advanced encryption.

When McKayla found out about Chase's bionics he gave her access to this app, so they could talk about it without the fear of someone hacking the system after all, even after Douglas hack all industries Davenport he didn't have access to this app, luckily.

*This sucks, I'm sorry* McKayla reply *it's okay, but tell me, how is your dad, did he get that job?* Chase types *Nope :(* McKayla reply.

*He's been calmer, especially since Trent started working. But I still think I'm going to have to give up dance classes* McKayla types and sends a sticker of a crying kitten, Chase gives a pitiful smile *wish I could do something, I know how much you love your dance classes* Chase types.

*Chase, you're really cute* McKayla sends it and continues typing, Chase blushes when he reads this and looks around but no one notices him *But unfortunately there's nothing you can do, just as I can't do much to help your family* McKayla types, Chase sighs.

*I'm here for you* Chase types and sends a sticker of a smiling dog *Lol I know, you're amazing. I'm here for you too ;)* McKayla types, Chase bites his lip as he reads the message *But the good news is that I have been doing research on a work study for me. If they hire me, I can pay for my dance classes, Yey!!* McKayla types.

*That's great, good luck with the interviews :)* Chase types *Thank you so much Chase, you're really sweet* McKayla types. She doesn't spare compliments on purpose, Chase smiles at the phone proud of himself.

Mr Davenport walks in "Okay everybody, family meeting time." Mr Davenport says, Adam raises hand "Adam, you don't have to raise to hand to speak, just talk." Mr Davenport says "Oh, I've got nothing to say, I'm just airing out my pits." Adam raises both arms, they frown.

"The reason I called this family meeting is because we have to make some cutbacks in the family budget, starting with losing our cellphones." Mr Davenport says, everyone gasps.

Chase looks at the cell phone in his hand upset, he's not used to using his cell phone much but lately he's been using it all day to talk to McKayla that he's forgotten what it's like to live without.

"Did you not hear me?! I just moved out of the basement! I need this phone!" Bree says "I don't get it. Why is this happening?" Adam asks "Phone gone! We poor now!" Chase says in a deep mockly voice again.

"Guys, stop complaining. This is what you do for family. You make sacrifices." Leo says "This goes for you too." Mr Davenport says "I barely know you people! I'm keeping my phone." Leo says and walks up to the kitchen.

"Don't worry, Donald and I will be giving up our phones, too." Tasha says with a slight smile to keep their spirits up "Well, you will." Mr Davenport says, Tasha galres at him.

"Look, the sooner we get money, the sooner we can get back to our regular lives. We need cash. Ideas?" Mr Davenport says "Ooh, I can make some desserts, and we can have a bake sale." Tasha smirks "Great, that'll buy us a lamp." Mr Davenport says.

"Hey, why don't you do a stunt like that guy on TV? You know, the one who made a whole bunch of money for walking on a tightrope across the grand canyon." Leo suggests "Oh, I see where you're goin' with this. We find that guy and rob him." Adam says.

"Or... Big D can do a similar stunt." Leo says "We can't rob Mr. Davenport. He's broke. Were you not listening?" Adam says.

"That kind of stunt could attract a huge sponsor that would have enough money for us to build a new lab. That's a great idea, Leo." Mr Davenport says "Just give me my cut when you get your money." Leo says.

*Uh Oh, my dad wants to do a stunt* Chase quickly texts McKayla, enjoying the last moments with his cell phone.

*Oh what? Lol...What kind of stunt? Because I already think the fact that he can pull himself through those tight gym pants is an incredible stunt already.* McKayla reply, Chase laughs discreetly, hiding it from the rest of the family by rubbing his nose *Lol You're really funny* Chase types, it's easier for him to compliment her like that.

McKayla responds to Chase with a sticker of an dog bowing, Chase smiles on cell phone "You know what? I've been working on a prototype fiberglass jet wing that uses two micro-jet engines to allow a human being to fly like an airplane. Check it out." Mr Davenport shows design on tablet.

*I'm not really liking this* Chase sends it to McKayla about Donald's stunt *And I really want to see this* McKayla reply.

"This is it. I, Donald Davenport, will attempt the first ever jet wing flight over Mission Creek." Mr Davenport says "Oh, no. I'm not letting my husband do something that dangerous...""You could host the exclusive pay-per-view webcast." Mr Davenport interrupts Tasha "Up, up and away!" Tasha smiles, raising her arms "All right!" Mr Davenport says.

"Are you sure about this? That thing hasn't even been tested." Chase says "And this thing has been suspended" Mr Davenport says taking Chase's phone, he sighs.

"I can't let my family suffer anymore." Mr Davenport says "Then skip the jet wing and give us our phones back." Bree says "Look, we need to find sponsors quickly, though." Mr Davenport says

"I'm on it. You're looking at the top donation collector for the school's "Save the Gym" campaign. Four dollars and sixteen cents." Leo says confidently "Okay. Leo, you can hunt for sponsors." Mr Davenport says.

"Yeah, we're gettin' our lab back!" Adam stands up and raises his arms, everyone goes to high-five him "No, you guys, again, just airin' them out." Adam says, everyone galres at him.

At jet-wing launch site.

Chase and Leo are preparing the equipment and McKayla helps them, Mr Davenport is already using the jet-wing.

"I still can't believe you only landed one sponsor, Leo." Mr Davenport tells Leo "You're lucky I got one. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a sponsor for an old guy who thinks he can fly?" Leo says "The best you could do was Go-Go Global Pack and Ship? Yep." Mr Davenport says.

"Now you only get paid if you survive. But if you don't, they'll ship your remains to your home state for free. Alaska and Hawaii not included. You're also contractually obligated to say "Go-Go Global Pack and Ship" throughout your flight." Leo explains.

Chase chuckles "That's gonna be hard for him. He's not used to promoting anything but himself." Chase says, Leo agrees and McKayla laughs, Chase frowns slightly because she laughs more than his joke expected "You're so funny" McKayla says gently taking his arm, she feels a slight nervousness taking his arm but tries to ignore it.

"Uh...thanks?" Chase says slightly confused, McKayla puts her hair behind her ear and walks away "What the hell was that?" She thinks, shaking her head.

"All right, two minutes to launch." Leo says, Donald looks scared "Big D, are you okay? You look a little nervous." Leo says "I'm not sure I can do this, Leo." Mr Davenport says nervously.

"Of course you can. You're Donald Davenport, and the Donald Davenport I know doesn't let anything get in the way of protecting his family." Leo says "You're right, Leo. I'm doing this for my family. I got this." Mr Davenport says "We trust you Mr Davenport" McKayla smiles gently.

Tasha walks over to them "Okay, guys, we're about to start the webcast. Tasha Davenport presents "Look Out Below: A Jet-Wing Catastrophe"." Tasha says, Mr Davenport tries to take a deep breath "Oh, for...""It's just for ratings." Tasha says tried to make himself less nervous.

"Your helmet-cam is up and running. I'll man mission control, and cue you when it's time to release your parachute for the landing." Chase says "Okay." Mr Davenport says.

"Ready to roll, Big D?" Leo asks "I can do this. I can do this." Mr Davenport puts on The helmet.

Tasha starts recording and talking to the camera "The world waits with bated breath, as Donald Davenport, husband of witty, yet personable reporter Tasha Davenport, prepares to launch for the first ever jet-wing flight across Mission Creek." Tasha says.

Mr Davenport waves at the camera and confetti is thrown at him, Chase, Leo and McKayla watch without much excitement, Mr Davenport spits out some of the confetti.

"Before I launch, I would like to take a moment, maybe longer, and, uh, thank everybody for coming out today. It really means a lot, and I see a lot of familiar faces in the crowd. And since I have time, I would like to mention you all by name." Mr Davenport says nervously.

"Why is he stalling?" Chase says "Doesn't really matter to me. I have the launch button." Leo says "Oh poor thing" McKayla purses her lips.

"Cynthia Forrester. Wow! How are the kiiiiiidds?" Mr Davenport is launched into the air before finishing the sentence.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Mr Davenport flying in the air.

"Whoo!" Mr Davenport celebrates by flying in the air "You doin' all right up there, Big D?" Leo says "Yeah, I don't know what I was worried about. This is awesome. But not as awesome as the low, low prices at Go-Go Global Pack and Ship." Mr Davenport says excitedly.

"Indeed is amazing Mr Davenport" McKayla says "We are gonna make a fortune. Tons of people are tuning into the live webcast." Chase says.

"Of course they are. I'm amazing. But not as amazing as shipping your valuables with Go-Go Global Pack and Ship." Mr Davenport says.

"All right, enough coasting. It's time for some extreme free styling. All right, world, let's slather up this stunt with some Davenport butter." Mr Davenport accelerates the jet-wing "Mr. Davenport, I wouldn't..." Chase says "Whoa, turbulence!" Mr Davenport says as an alarm starts beeping.

"What was that?" Mr Davenport asks "That was your parachute." Chase says with fear, Mr Davenport shouts "He's why?" McKayla says "Not to worry. You'll be fine for the moment. You'll just continue at jet speed until your wings run out of jet fuel." Chase says slightly nervous.

Leo covers the microphone "What happens then?" Leo asks "Then he'll crash." Chase chuckles nervously "Oh my God" McKayla says "Oh, no. I'm gonna fall. Faster than the prices at Go-Go Global Pack and Ship." Mr Davenport whimpers "at least he'll keep his sponsor" McKayla smiles nervously.

Tasha walks up to them whit the news camera "Famed reporter Tasha Davenport here, bringing you one of the most tense moments in television history. A live jet wing crash! We have exclusive access to mission headquarters, where I'm sure they have everything under control." Tasha says.

The camera pans over to Leo and Chase, who are frantically working, McKayla widens her eyes slightly and nudges Chase "Guys, guys!" McKayla says keeping a smile, Chase and Leo face the camera awkwardly while Tasha puts the microphone in front of Chase.

"We're, uh... We're mulling our options." Chase says trying not to sound nervous "Mulling your options? That is my husband up there." Tasha says softly covering the microphone.

"Hello. Somebody needs to come up with a solution fast. There is jet fuel leaking inside my flight suit. Nope, not jet fuel." Mr Davenport says "It's going to be okay" McKayla says "Don't lie to me McKayla it just makes me more scared" Mr Davenport says.

"This is all my fault. I had the idea of sending him up there." Leo says "No argument here." Chase says quietly
"Mr. Davenport, we're just gonna have to use our bionic..." Chase looks up at camera "Hi." Chase gives the camera an awkward smile.

"Chase, you can't show the world your bion..." Leo looks at camera "Hi!" Leo gives an awkward smile, McKayla rolls her eyes "how come you guys haven't been discovered yet" McKayla says sarcastically, Chase and Leo glare at her.

"Stop saying bion-a-hi, call Adam and Bree, and get me out of the sky!" Mr Davenport says "Well, we'd love to, but someone took away our cell phone service." Leo says sarcastically "Really? Guilt? Now?" Mr Davenport says annoyed.

"I'll run to school and get Adam and Bree. Keep his hopes up." Leo tells Chase and McKayla and runs away.

Chase sighs and sits at the table next to McKayla "So... whatcha gonna do tomorrow if you make it?" Chase says, McKayla frowns and Mr Davenport looks more scared.

McKayla rolls her eyes "Look Mr Davenport why don't we try to take this moment to do some meditation and relax a little huh" McKayla says calmly, Chase frowns.

"How so?" Mr Davenport asks "Uh, my dance teacher taught us this meditation so we wouldn't get nervous before performances...try to imagine yourself...on the ground?" McKayla frowns.

"what?" Mr Davenport asks "what?" Chase frowns, McKayla covers the microphone "Usually the teacher tells us to imagine ourselves flying in the sky but..." McKayla points up.

"Okay it's not bad, the ground really is the best place for me to imagine myself right now" Mr Davenport says "great, now imagine yourself on the ground in a peaceful place, with beautiful birds..." McKayla says calmly "Birds like the ones that might hit him in the face up there?" Chase says looking up.

McKayla looks at him irritated "Okay then no birds" McKayla says in an annoyed tone, Chase shrugs.

"take a deep breath and imagine being in a place with...beautiful kittens then" McKayla says trying to adapt the situation "great at least they land on their feet Mr Davenport on the other hand..." Chase says, McKayla looks at him irritated.

"Okay, forget what I said, imagine yourself on a beach..." McKayla says, Chase was about to open his mouth to say something and she covers his mouthb gently "Shh! I'm the one who does the meditations around here!" McKayla she says threateningly, Chase looks at her scared and nods.

"Good" McKayla says with a calm smile as she slowly releases his mouth, Chase looks at her confused for a second as she adjusts the microphone "Why do I like it when she does things that? What's wrong with me?" he wonders, until she feels his gaze and he looks back at the monitor.

At jet-wing launch site.

Leo walks up whit Adam and Bree, Adam has a metal hubcap strapped to his face and he holds Bree.

"Okay, Okay, we've got some serious problems. Adam's heat vision's glitching out, Bree's bouncing off the walls, and I saw Principal Perry's bare feet. And can I just say...?" Leo covers his eyes and screams.

"Uh okay?" McKayla says confused "What's on his face?" Chase points at Adam "It's a hubcap. It's the only thing I could find that would shield my heat vision." Adam's heat vision fires inside the hubcap "Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" Adam says several times in pain.

"Woah, I understand now why these capsules are so important to you... but can I ask with so much evolution and such technology, why were you never able to fix this?" McKayla says "Mack, now is not the time to throw our technological imperfections in our faces" Bree says.

"Chase, I can't keep circling above you. I'm almost out of fuel. What's the plan?" Mr Davenport says "I'm working on it." Chase covers the microphone "I've run through every possible scenario, and they all end with the Donald Davenport memorial bridge." Chase says worried.

"Well, we can't just let him fall. Use your magnetism app." Leo says "I can't. The jet-wing is made out of fiberglass, not metal." Chase suas.

"Well, We have to do something. The whole reason he did this ridiculous stunt was to get the lab back for you guys." Leo says "Leo's right. Mr. Davenport put his life on the line for us." Bree says "Yeah. Plus, he's our dad. Wait, technically, he's not our dad. Why are we here again?" Adam says.

"You guys are gonna have to use your bionics, but not with all these people around." Leo goes to the crowd "Okay, attention. I'm gonna need everyone to clear this space out immediately." Leo says but nobody moves "There are free snacks inside!" Lo says and the crowd runs.

"Hey, guys, good news. If he does crash, we've got this adorable little tote bag we can collect his pieces with." Adam says holding Mr Davenport's parachute bag "That's disturbing Adam" McKayla says,Adam shrugs.

"Adam, where'd you get that?" Leo asks "I found it on the side of the road next to the hub cap." Adam says "Adam, that's not a tote bag. That's the parachute that fell from Mr. Davenport's jet-wing." Chase grabs the parachute "We gotta find a way to get this to him." Chase says.

"Why don't we just give it to him when he lands?" Adam says, McKayla rolls her eyes and flicks the back of his head "Owch! Hey who did this?!" Adam says.

"Hey, what if Adam uses his strength to launch it back up to him?" Leo suggests "Yes. I'll calculate the coordinates, and guide his throw. Here." Chase puts parachute in Adam's hand "Okay, I really need a list of your bionics so I can better integrate into this" McKayla says slightly confused "You'll get used to it" Bree says.

"All right, Mr. Davenport, be on the lookout. I'm sending up your parachute." Chase says "Copy that. I'm ready." Mr Davenport says "All right, here we go. Three, two, one." Chase says and Adam throws parachute with Chase's guidance.

"Yes!" McKayla says "Adam, great job. It's heading straight for him." Chase says "Cool, let me see!" Adam lifts the hub cap on his face up and accidentally slices part of Donald's jet wing with his heat vision, everyone looks in disbelief and Mr Davenport screams "Whoops. I think I'm just gonna pull this back down." Adam pulls hub cab back down akwardly.

Mr Davenport starts screaming "Relax, Mr. Davenport, I have a plan." Chase says "If your plan was to be fatherless, it's working!" Mr Davenport says in despair.

Tasha walks over "Why aren't you saving him? Can't any of you fly?" Tasha asks, they glare at her "You really can't?" McKayla asks them to glare at her "What do you do in that basement all day?" Tasha says, they groan.

Perry runs up huffing and puffing "Thanks for leaving me behind. Why'd you use your super speed?" Perry asks Bree "I didn't." Bree smirk.

"Ok if there is an ability that I know is your molecular kinesis, can't you use it?" McKayla asks Chase "I can try to use it to slow his descent, but he's still gonna hit too hard." Chase says.

"Wait, we are in the parking lot of a shipping store. We can use cardboard boxes to break his fall." Leo says "And tape... to put him back together." Adam says "Stop saying he's going to be in pieces!" McKayla says holding his hands irritated "Oh so you were the one who flicked me! Cold hands like that can only be yours or Chase's" Adam laughs.

"You heard him. Let's go." Perry says everyone starts to adjust the cardboards in the middle of the parking lot to cushion Mr Davenport's fall.

"Guys, I'm out of fuel. I'm trying not to use my scared voice, but it's slipping out." Mr Davenport says in a thin, high-pitched voice.

"Mr. Davenport, I'm slowing you down and they're building a crash pad. Try to aim for it." Chase raises his arms to use molecular kinesis to slow Donald's fall "It's working. I'm slowing down. I'll release the jet-wing so it won't crush me on impact." Mr Davenport begins to release the jet-wing.

They finish arranging the cardboards "All right, we're good to go. Boxes are set up as a crash pad. Oh, no. I feel a glitch coming on." Bree starts to move anxiously "Got it" Leo puts a box over Bree, It starts super speed inside the box "I bet she looks stupid." Adam laughs without being able to see due to the hubcap on his face, Leo moves him so that he holds the box that Bree is trapped in.

Chase starts to struggle with his molecular kinesis "Hey, you're okay?" McKayla asks "I think my bionics are glitching, too." Chase says, McKayla looks at him worriedly.

Mr Davenport starts to fall "What's happening? I'm free-falling again! Five hundred feet! Four hundred feet!" Mr Davenport shouts "No!" McKayla says "Do something!" Leo says shaking Chase in despair, Chase takes a deep breath and tries to regain the strength of his molecular kinesis.

Mr Davenport stops falling freely "It's working. I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna live." Mr Davenport says with relief and then stars screaming again, Chase's bionics fail "I'm falling again, I'm not gonna make it. My life is over!" Chase's bionics return "What? No, I'm fine. I'm okay, I'm.. Nope, I'm a goner!" Mr Davenport screams, Chase's bionics fail again.

"Aim for the boxes, money bags." Perry says "One hundred feet!" Mr Davenport says screaming.

"I can't control him anymore." Chase says weakly "Oh not again" McKayla says seeing Chase pass out she quickly holds him in her arms as he collapses.

Donald screams while falling and Perry looks up and screams, he lands on Perry.

Soon the cameraman and Tasha approach Donald and Perry on the floor "I think we've learned something today. Nobody covers a story like Tasha Davenport." Tasha says excitedly.

Chase wakes up in McKayla's arms who holds him "Does this mean that every time I pass out you'll be here to hold me?" Chase says holding her arms "Yeah, apparently you do that a lot and always when I'm around so" McKayla chuckles gently looking into his eyes that reflect the light from the sky making them even more hazel.

Chase smiles looking at her delicate smile too, he licks his lower lip "Uh I think you can let me go now" Chase says with a shy smile, McKayla blinks twice realizing she's still holding him in her arms "Oh! Yeah sure!" McKayla says as he stands.

They go to Perry and Mr Davenport "Is he dead?" Perry says on the floor with pain "No." Chase says "Am I dead?" Perry asks, they look at her for a few seconds "Unclear, but just to be safe, we should probably proceed with a burial." Leo says.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In the living room.

Leo and Tasha help an injured Donald into the living room "I can't believe the media is hailing Principal Perry as a hero just for breaking my fall." Mr Davenport says.

Tablet shows "Local Principal is Hero at Jet-Wing Stunt Disaster!" and a photo of Perry with a cast from head to toe "The real heroes are the nurses who made that body cast." Leo says with disgust.

"I'm just happy you're okay." Tasha says "I'm really proud of you, Leo. If it wasn't for you, I probably wouldn't have gone through with that stunt." Mr Davenport says "Ah, it was nothin', Big D. But words are cheap, and I still want my cut." Leo says.

"Look, the good news is, we raised enough money to build a new lab, and Adam, Bree and Chase will be back in their capsules in no time." Mr Davenport says "Yeah. The sooner, the better." Leo looks at the sofa.

Where Adam, Bree and Chase are all glitching. Chase has utensils on his face due his magnetism app, Adam has the hub cap on, and Bree's in a box, super speeding.
