Bionic Action Hero Pt.1


Nobody's POV

"Guess who I just got off the phone with? Giselle Vickers." Douglas chuckles as he walks up to the five teens in the common area.

"The big Hollywood filmmaker?" Bree asks.

"She is legendary! She made all the killer zombie trucker movies. Because of her, I can't pee at a truck stop." Leo gasps.

"That's right. And get this. Her next blockbuster is going to be called Bionic Action Hero." Douglas says with a smirk.

"Awesome! What's it about?" Adam asks, as clueless as ever.

"A Bionic Action Hero." Douglas says.

"Huh. Save your money sounds like a flop." Adam says with a shrug.

"Woah Woah Woah! The same person who makes those lame zombie movies are going to make our movie? No way." Chase scoffs.

"Must you ruin everything?!" Leo snaps glaring at him.

"It's his most powerful bionic ability." Mia chuckles.

"Relax, Chase. Giselle's an old college friend. We spent a lot of time in the robotics lab together before she switched careers. We even dated a bit." Douglas explains with a smirk.

"What happened?" Bree asks.

"Sometimes people grow apart." Douglas replies with a shrug.

"She dumped you didn't she?" Bree asks.

"Worst day of my life! And I've been to prison 4 times!" Douglas cries, receiving odd looks back.

"Anyways, she wants the film to portray bionics accurately, so she's coming over here to research with the actor that's playing you guys." He explains.

"I think you mean actors." Chase says in a correcting tone.

"No. In the film there aren't 4 bionic superhumans. To simplify it there's just one with all your abilities." Douglas explains.

"So who's the actor?" Bree asks.

"Oh, I bet it's Dame Judi Dench. Look at me! I'm bionic!" Adam chuckles putting on a British accent.

"Oh, what about Ellen? Her with bionics would be hilarious!" Mia says with a smirk.

"No, it's some new guy named Troy West." Douglas says with a shrug.

"Oh, so they're just gonna throw some rookie in the leading role? I don't want any part in this." Chase scoffs.

"You know, I hate to say it, but I agree with Chase. You only have one chance to have your life turned into a movie. It should be done right." Bree sighs.

"Exactly. So who's playing me? Denzal, Will Smith? Oh who am I kidding? Those guys can't bring the Dooley." Leo says with a smirk.

"Sorry Leo. There is no character based on you." Douglas says.

"What?!" Leo yells, his eyes almost bulging out of his head.

"It's called Bionic Action Hero, not kind of Bionic sort of Action Hero." Douglas says with a shrug.

"Look, if they want someone to play Bionic Action Hero, Why don't they use me? I'm an actor. I starred in a school play." Adam says with a smirk.

"You had one line. And you forgot it." Bree says.

"Not to mention you stood there while me and Leo took down the attack orbs." Mia adds.

"Just because it's in the script doesn't mean you have to say it. Plus I can do my own stunts. The guy who played Superman can't stop a real locomotive, but I can." Adam explains.

"Oh, yeah? Well, the hydra loop is closing. I bet you can't stop that." Chase says nodding to the hydra loop.

Adam runs forward and sticks his hand between the doors, stopping them from closing.

"Hah! I did it." He chuckles.

"Uh- uh. You stopped the doors, but you didn't stop the hydra loop." Chase says with a smirk, just as the hydra loop shoots along and drags Adam with it, sending him crashing into the door.

"Did it stop?" Adam groans as he lies on the floor.

"Whatever you want buddy." Mia says with a shrug.

"Is everybody ready? Troy and Giselle will be here any minute." Douglas says as he walks up to the four mentors in the common area.

"You seem kind of nervous. If I didn't know any better, I'd think you you were trying to get your old girlfriend back." Bree says with a smirk.

"That's ridiculous. How's my hair? Too spiky, not enough spike? Just the right amount of spike?" Douglas asks frantically.

"Never mind the spike. What are you going to do about the grays?" Bree asks with a smirk.

"Grays?!" Douglas cries, just as the hydra loop opens up.

"Whoa. look at this place." A boy gasps stepping out of the hydra loop.

"Hey, Troy. Welcome to the Bionic Academy." Douglas says shaking the boys hand.

"Thanks I'm really happy-" Troy replies

"Giselle." Douglas gasps turning towards the lady stepping out of the hydra loop.

"Douglas nice to see you. Still rockin' the same old spikes, huh?" Giselle mutters giving him a weird look.

"I can change. What do you like? Side part, middle part, mullet?" Douglas asks with a smirk.

"Hi I'm Giselle. So honored to be telling your story. And this is Troy West, the actor who will be playing you in the movie." Giselle says turning to the four bionic teens.

"What's up guys? It's really nice to meet you." Troy says smiling at them.

"Ah, I get it now. You got my body, Bree and Mia's hair, but I'm not seeing the Chase. He's perfect." Adam says with a smirk.

"Oh, come on. You seriously buy that this guy's bionic? I mean, compared to me-" Chase scoffs.

"Chase, don't go there. Just don't." Mia says giving him an odd look.

"Hey, thanks for letting us come here to do our research. I can't believe I'm actually standing here with four bionic heroes." Troy gasps.

"I'm not seeing anyone. Uh... that's not normally what I lead with, but I'm not seeing anyone." Bree stammers flashing a smile.

"Oh god, not again!" Mia groans.

"We won't get in your way. I'm just here to check out the academy so I can make the movie as real as possible." Giselle explains.

"And I'm just here to learn about your bionics so my performance will feel authentic." Troy adds with a smile.

"Ah, totally get where you're coming from, Troy. I'm a big-time actor myself." Adam says with a smirk.

"Really? Movies?" Troy asks.

"Uh, school plays. But, I did see a mom filming it on her phone, so it's only a matter of time before it hits theaters." Adam explains.

"...I see... So what did you feel was the key to your character's inner life?" Troy asks, a confused look on his face.

"Oh, I got to wear a cowboy hat, and ride a wooden pony." Adam replies with a smirk.

"And that's all you need to know about Adam." Chase says with a shrug.

"Why, hello. You must be Giselle. I'm Leo, the fifth and most important member of the team." Leo says as he walks in.

"Of course, I know all about you Leo." Giselle replies with a smile.

"Then you also know that my fascinating life would make a fantastic sequel. Or we can just forget about the little cocktail weenies, and focus on the main course. Me." Leo explains before Douglas shoves him out of the way.

"Why don't you guys go show Troy some bionic moves? That'll give Giselle a chance to walk around this place, and remember how adorable I am." Douglas suggests as he wraps his arm around Giselle and begins to lead her out of the room.

"Heh... we are going to be walking for a very long time." Giselle mutters.

"So you really think you have what it takes to be a bionic superhero?" Adam asks as he and his siblings stand around Troy in the training area.

"I hope so. Hey, I've been training really hard. Check this out. It's one of Chase's abilities." Troy says before touching his hand to his temple.

"What was that?!" Chase snaps storming over.

"It was your bionic eye scan. Hey, don't worry. Once they add some special effects, it'll look really cool." Troy says with a smile.

"No, it won't, 'cause you're doing it wrong. It goes like this." Chase scoffs before he touches his hand to his temple, almost the exact same way as Troy did.

"Oh, thanks, man. Yeah, no, I totally get how that's different." Troy says, a confused look on his face.

"Okay, so now who's helping out with the cheesy movie?" Bree asks as she pulls Chase across the room.

"I am not helping, I am critiquing his mediocre performance!" Chase yells, spitting in Bree's face in the process.

"So, this is my Pyrokinesis. Cool, huh?" Mia says to Troy as she fires her Pyrokinesis straight forward.

"Fire!" Troy shouts, a desperate look on his face.

"Yes, it's fire. I know that." Mia says as she continues to fire her Pyrokinesis.

"No Mia! Actual fire!" Bree shouts pointing in front of her.

Mia turns towards that direction, only to find it ablaze! She screams and quickly switches to her Hydrokinesis, putting out the fire in seconds.

"And that is all you need to know about Pyrokinesis." She chuckles nervously.

"Now the T-shirts, they would say, 'Leo Dooley's bionic army.' Get it? Army. 'Cause I have a bionic arm." Leo says as he and Giselle sit in the cafeteria.

"Leo, would you please give this lovely woman her space?" Douglas asks walking into the room, his hair parted to the side.

"If you need someone to write me into the script, I am your man, I'm a born typist. Best hunt and pecker in the business. Thirteen words a minute. I also direct." Leo explains as Douglas shoves him out of the room.

"That kid. He would do anything to impress you." Douglas chuckles sitting down next to Giselle, smoothing out his hair in the process.

"You know, Giselle, it's too bad that you couldn't see all the other brilliant things that I created outside of here. You could make a whole movie just about Marcus." He says with a smirk.

"Marcus?" Giselle asks, an intrigued look on her face.

"My greatest invention. An advanced android with all of Adam, Bree, and Chase's bionic abilities. Believe it or not, he was even more powerful then they are." Douglas explains.

"What about Mia? Did he not have her abilities?" Giselle asks.

"He had electrokinesis but that's it. However, he did have abilities that easily overpowered Mia's. Plasma grenades were my personal favourite." Douglas chuckles.

"Well where is he? I'd love to see him." Giselle says with a smile.

"You can see parts of him. They're buried in a huge pile of rubble in my old lair." Douglas explains.

"I'm sorry. Your lair?" Giselle asks, a confused look on her face.

"Yeah. Technically, it's a suburban basement, but by law, you have to call it a lair if you use it to torture people." Douglas says with a shrug.

Meanwhile in the living quarters, Bree's just finishing up showing Troy her super speed, stopping just in front of him.

"That is so cool!" He gasps jumping up from his seat.

"Well if you like that ability then your really gonna like my-." Bree says, just before she turns invisible.

"Invisibility app." She adds as she become visible again.

"Ah, no way! How do you do that?" Troy asks.

"It's not-." Bree says before she uses her invisibility app again.

"That-." She says as she reappears in another part of the room.

"Hard." She says as she taps Troy on the back, reappearing just behind him.

"Awesome! Uh, thanks for helping me out." He replies with a smile.

"Sure." Bree says as she walks over to the kitchen.

"I just wish I could understand Mia's abilities like I understand yours." Troy sighs following after her.

"What do you mean?" Bree asks.

"She's been really helpful, she really has. I just can't seem to understand her abilities. If I don't figure her out, Giselle will fire me. I really don't want to lose this role." Troy sighs.

"Maybe I can help. What do you need?" Bree asks.

"I don't know, stuff like how her chip was designed. And how does she generate all those elements from her hands. The stuff that makes her one of the most powerful people in the world." Troy explains.

"Sorry, all I know is what makes her the most annoying little sister in the world." Bree chuckles with a smirk.

"Hey, if all you need is a bionic owners manual, we can access Mr Davenports files from here." She says walking over to the desk.

"Really? Yeah, that would be great!" Troy gasps following after her.

"Yeah, I mean it's just a bunch of boring schematics and formulas but...there you go. Everything there is too know about Mia's chip." She says as she hands Troy a flash drive, which is full of Mia's schematics and formulas.

"Thanks Bree." Troy replies smiling down at her.

"Your pretty." She sighs in a dreamy voice.

"I know." He replies with a smirk.

"So, uh, now that we're done working, do you wanna go hit the pool?" Bree suggests.

"Sure, I'll go change." Troy says as he begins to walk towards the door.

"Don't be too long! I mean, take your time. I'm not desperate!" Bree calls as he walks out, the door closing behind him.

"Mission accomplished." Troy says as he hands the flash drive to Giselle, a sick smirk on his face.

"Perfect. Now we can finally take them out and rid the world of bionic humans forever." Giselle says before walking off, Troy following after her.

"I'm so glad you guys could come by the stage and watch us film." Giselle says as the five teens and Douglas follow her into the studio.

"I wanted to stay at home and sleep but Bree said that I couldn't!" Mia whines.

"You nearly set fire to the academy yesterday!" Bree scoffs.

"Take note on the 'nearly'." Mia says with a shrug.

"And this is our Hollywood version of the bionic academy." Giselle says as they walk into the set.

"Looks awesome!" Leo gasps as she looks around.

"No it doesn't! The walls look fake! The floor looks fake! Nothing in here looks like the real academy!" Chase scoffs.

"Yet your complaining is very authentic." Bree says giving him an annoyed look.

"Oh, I've gotta take this call from my other movie 'Killer Zombie Orthodontists'." Giselle says as she pulls out her phone.

"Orthodontists?" Leo asks giving her a strange look.

"Yeah, I know, we're kinda running out of ideas." She mutters before walking off, just as Troy walks in holding a script.

"Oh, hey Troy." Bree says walking over to him.

"Oh, hey." He replies.

"So, uh, what happened? You said you were gonna meet me by the pool and then you left without saying a word." Bree asks.

"I mean, what do you want me to say? I'm not much of a water person." He mutters before walking off, leaving Bree stood there 'heartbroken'.

"Great news, since you were all so helpful, I'm putting you in the scene we're about to shoot." Giselle says walking over to them.

"Wait, you want us to be in the movie?" Bree asks.

"Yep. But instead of playing bionic heroes, you get to play the bad guys. What do you think?" Giselle says with a smile.

"I think Leo Dooley better have a line." Leo mutters.

"Oh! We're gonna be in a movie! We're gonna be in a movie! We're gonna be in a movie!" Chase squeals as he reads the script.

"Oh, so now your on board?" Douglas asks giving him an accusing look.

"Hey, Troy starring in a bionic movie, lame. Me starring in a bionic movie, awesome!" Chase chuckles.

"Your little girl voice, not awesome!" Mia mocks, receiving a glare back from Chase.

"Great, so then it's all settled. Any questions?" Giselle asks.

"Uh, just one, what time will this be on tonight?" Adam asks, as clueless as ever.

"It hurts my head! It hurts!" Mia groans hitting her head against the wall.

"This is so cool. I finally get to play a bad guy! Chase Davenport, International Bad Boy." Chase says into the mirror as they all prepare for the scene.

"Settle down Bad Boy, your mascaras running." Leo mocks, making Chase sit down quickly.

"I don't get it. Troy won't even talk to me. It's so weird." Bree sighs.

"Not really, boys blow you off all the time." Adam says with a shrug.

"He's got you there." Mia adds.

"What if he's got another girl on set?!" Bree gasps.

"So what? You just met the guy." Douglas says with a shrug.

"We had a connection, I'm not crazy! Ok look, all I'm saying is if he is seeing someone else, I need to know about it. So I can go sabotage it!" Bree yells before storming off.

"Girls, always going to that desperate place. I hope Giselle's not seeing someone else!" Douglas gasps jumping up from his chair and running off.

"Douglas, always going to that desperate place." Mia chuckles.

"Troy?" Bree says as she steps into his dressing room, only to find no one there.

She walks over to his desk, only to find it full of pictures of himself.

"Self absorbed much. Wow, even his pictures smell good." She sighs as she grabs hold of one of the pictures, just as Troy's laptop beeps across the room.

"Ah ha. Let's see who Mr Popular's been getting messages from." She mutters as she walks over to his laptop.

"This won't take long." Giselle says from outside.

"Well hurry up, I've gotta be on set." Troy replies, just as they enter the room.

Bree thinks fast and uses her invisibility app, hiding herself from the two of them.

"This is what I wanted to show you. I finally finished analysing Mia's chip schematics." Giselle explains as she opens up her laptop.

"Then we're good?" Troy asks.

"As soon as they're ready to film, we'll do it." Giselle says, just as all of Troy's pictures fall off the table.

"My pictures! Help me!" Tory cries leaning down for the pictures.

While they're distracted, Bree swaps over the two laptops, which are identical in look.

"Come on, let's get out of here." Giselle says as she grabs 'her' laptop and walks out.

"I think I need more pictures of me." Troy mutters before following after her.

Once they're gone, Bree switches off her invisibility app and turns to the laptop, the contents of which are shocking to her.

Meanwhile back on set, the five other Davenports are prancing around the room, each of them doing a weird vocal warmup.

"Ok! Everybody, we're about to start filming! Positions please!" Giselle orders as she walks up to Troy, the five Davenports running to their positions outside the door.

"Where's Bree?" Troy asks.

"We'll take care of her later. Just make sure you use the real weapon, on them." Giselle says as she hands him a large gun.

"My pleasure." He replies with a smirk before heading to his position.

"Ok, just like we rehearsed. Douglas, you and the kids will say your lines and then Troy will shoot you. Light, Camera, Action!" Giselle explains as she walks over to her chair, the cameras rolling shortly after.

"Any sign of the bionic superhuman?" Douglas asks as he and the four teens run into the room.

"I think we lost him!" Chase shouts over enthusiastically.

"Told you we'd...get away with it." Adam says, looking at the line he's written on his hand.

"Great work everybody." Leo says, giving a thumbs up to the camera in the process.

"Come on, let's get out of here before he gets back." Mia says, acting surprisingly well.

"Not so fast. Thanks for making this so easy." Troy says with a smirk as he emerges from his hiding place.

He raises the gun up, preparing to shoot them, but Bree super speeds over and knocks it out of his hands before he can.

"No!" Giselle shouts as Bree grabs the gun, standing in front of her family.

"What are you doing?!" Douglas snaps glaring at her.

"You just ruined the scene!" Chase groans.

"And my take was perfect!" Leo shouts making a thumbs up at the camera.

"Oh who are you guys kidding? It sucked!" Mia scoffs.

"This is all a trap! Giselle lured us here so Troy could take us out with this!" Bree shouts motioning to the gun in her hands.

"Bree, that's a prop." Chase says giving her an odd look.

"Oh really?" Bree asks before she fires the gun at the camera, blowing it into pieces.

"Woah, what just happened?!" Leo gasps.

"Wait! I'm lost, are we still doing the scene?" Adam asks, as clueless as ever.

"No! This isn't even a real movie!" Bree groans.

"What?! Giselle, what is going on?" Douglas gasps turning to Giselle, who is pacing around them with a smirk.

"Go ahead, tell them." Bree says glaring at her.

"With pleasure. The only reason I've been making movies all these years is to fund my army of advanced android fighting machines. And just as I was about to reveal my brilliant creation, along came Adam, Mia, Chase and Bree to steal my thunder." Giselle explains.

"And Leo! Why does everybody forget about Leo?!" Leo groans.

"I gave my androids all of your abilities. The only ones I couldn't crack were Mia's freaky elemental ones." Giselle says glaring at Mia.

"Don't worry, Douglas couldn't crack it either." Mia chuckles, receiving a pointed glare from Douglas.

"My technology is far superior. Your my competition, and the first rule in business is to eliminate the competition." Giselle says.

"Really? I thought it was location, location, location." Adam says with a shrug.

"This is crazy! There is no way that your android technology is that advanced!" Douglas scoffs as the androids stand around them.

"Oh really? Troy, why don't we show them." Giselle says smirking at him.

She presses a button on her watch, causing all of the androids switch to their regular forms, making the 6 Davenports gasp.

"Troy's a killer android!" Leo gasps.

"You really know how to pick 'em Bree." Chase says, receiving a glare back.

"Now that I have the schematics for Mia's chip, I can give all my androids her abilities and build the ultimate army." Giselle explains.

"You have my schematics!? My schematics?! What are schematics?!" Mia gasps, almost as clueless as Adam.

"How do you have them?" Chase asks glaring at Troy and Giselle.

"Bree gave them to me." Troy says with a smirk.

"You what?! I don't exactly know what they are, but they seem important!" Mia yells turning to her sister.

"I'm sorry, he tricked me!" Bree shouts, just as Troy rips the gun out of her hands and shoves her to the ground.

"Nice work Troy. Finish them off." Giselle orders.

"Wait?! If you destroy me, you destroy Giselle's laptop, with Mia's schematics. That's right, I switched them." Bree says as she gets back up, showing the laptop off to Giselle.

"Oh, who cares. I've got backups all over my servers." Giselle says with a shrug.

"Not if Chase and Douglas do some typey-typey and block your access! Right?" Mia asks turning to Chase.

"Yes! We can create a virus that will block your entire network! Quick, hand me the laptop!" Chase orders as he reaches for the laptop, him and Douglas running across the room with it as a fight breaks out.

Leo runs over to one of the androids and kicks him with his bionic leg, causing him to cry out in pain and pull it back.

"Just wait for it! It's gonna hurt any second now!" He yells before the android swings for him, just narrowly missing.

"No. Ok then." He mutters before running off, the android chasing after him.

Meanwhile, Adam is fighting off two androids when one of them shoot lasers just above his head.

"Hey! That's not in the script!" He yells before he starts to attack the two androids.

Bree tries to take down another android, but he throws her into Douglas and Chase, almost knocking the laptop out of their hands.

"Easy! We're trying to work here!" Douglas groans glaring at her.

"Sorry! AHHH!" Bree yells before charging at the android again.

Meanwhile, Troy begins to head for the gun lying on the floor. Mia notices this and grabs onto it, pulling it away before Troy can grab. She switches on her Pyrokinesis, melting the gun and throwing it down onto the floor.

"Nice try Robo-Boy." She mocks with a smirk.

"Got it! The virus is out!" Chase shouts as he and Douglas walk back over.

"Ha ha! We just fried all your servers! Just like you fried my heart!" Douglas cries as Chase smashes the laptop.

"Surround them!" Giselle orders, making all the androids surround them all.

As they do, Troy hits Mia on the back of the neck, knocks her out and slings her over his shoulder before walking out.

"Where are you taking her?!" Adam snaps glaring at them.

"Since you destroyed my network, there's only one way to get Mia's chip. I'll have to rip it out of her myself." Giselle says.

"Not if we stop you!" Leo shouts.

"That's not gonna happen. This entire set is rigged with explosives. And once they detonate, the world will think it's an unfortunate accident that claimed the lives of the bionic not-so superhumans." Giselle explains with a smirk.

"Let her go!" Chase snaps as he tries to run forward, only to get knocked down by one of the androids.

"Goodbye Douglas. And thanks for giving me the last piece of the puzzle." Giselle says before walking out, the countdown for their death appearing on the monitor.
