"No, I get it." Juliet agreed. "You have every right to do this."
"Leo, you're the new guy here, so if you have a problem with our mess, go live with the other students in the dorm." Bree offered and Juliet smirked at Leo.
"Jules doesn't even sleep in this room." Leo objected.
"Irrelevant information," Juliet shrugged, licking her popsicle. "And I'm the oldest in this room right now, so you are not the boss of me."
"Okay, you know what? I can play your game too," Leo challenged, before glancing at the pitcher of orange juice and picking it up. Leo went over to Bree's capsule and the girls shot up.
"What are you doing?" Bree asked.
Leo poured the orange juice inside the capsule and the girls gasped in horror.
"Hey, that's where I sleep!" Bree protested and Juliet crossed her arms, glaring.
"Not tonight," Leo taunted.
"I got this, Bree." Juliet assured Bree and super sped over to a pile, before super speeding behind the couch and holding a container of chili.
"This blanket doesn't seem warm enough, does it, Bree?" Juliet grinned and Bree smirked, nodding. "You know what it needs? A nice layer of month-old chili."
Juliet opened the container and Bree took the lid as Juliet poured the chili all over the blanket Leo sleeps on. Leo stood there clenching his jaw in anger as Bree laughed and Juliet dropped the container, before hi-fiving Bree.
Leo contained his anger and smiled. "Looks delicious. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to take out the trash."
Leo grabbed a trash bag and dumped it all over Bree's capsule with a huge grin.
"Alright," Juliet scoffed and Bree nodded.
"Okay," Bree super sped out for the room and came back seconds later with a bucket of seaweed. "You know the best part of living on an island? All the fresh seaweed rotting in the sun."
Leo caved over, holding his stomach and gagging. Juliet was laughing while covering her mouth from the awful scent.
"I'm gonna be sick." Leo gagged and the girls smiled at him. "But I think I'll vomit over Juliet's capsule."
Leo had already taken off sprinting out of the room and the girls chased after him, yelling.
"Stay out of my capsule!" Juliet yelled.

~Training Area~
Freya sat on the platform, waiting for the final game to begin. Freya and Chase hadn't exchanged any glances or words since the test earlier that day, and it was killing Freya. She couldn't talk to Chase right now, he has to focus on this test, and she wants him to win.
Freya is stuck between wanting to support her boyfriend and wanting him to see his teaching tactics aren't working. She is going to try to be supportive by giving advice and helping him improve because she loves him and when they have their private lessons, he is a wonderful mentor to her.
Freya's eyes were in her journal, doodling aimlessly, only glancing up every now and then. Something she noticed odd about Chase and his team was standing there, not moving a muscle and it confused her very much. Chase would be talking to them and prepping them for the test, but they were all standing still.
Freya leaned over and looked at Chase's face to see panic and fear and she frowned.
"Chase?"
"Yes?" Chase asked, not moving a hair.
"You alright?" Freya asked him. She was curious, yet worried about him.
"Yes!" Chase quickly remarked. "All good."
Freya shrugged, answering with hesitation. "Alright."
She knows something is going on, she can sense Chase's panicked emotion. He is doing something sneaky, and Freya will find out.
Donald ran in, greeting both groups. "Welcome to the third and final challenge!" Lights started to flash and cheesy game show music played as Donald smiled and everyone was confused. Donald suddenly turned to Adam. "Adam Davenport, you have an opportunity to lead your team to a third victory."
Donald moonwalked back to Chase and turned to him. "Chase Davenport, you and your team have one last chance to save yourself from a lifetime of ridicule from your brother, your girlfriend," Donald gestured to Freya, who looked away with shame and then pointed to himself. "And me."
"And Bree and Jules," Adam added. "They're not here, but I'm pretty sure they'd want in on some of this."
"This last test will challenge both your mental and physical prowess. So, there will be a brief warm-up period of brisk exercise." Donald explained
"No movement!" Chase protested abruptly, getting confused looks. He stammered. "I mean, stretching's overrated. What's the worst that can happen? Torn hamstring."
"Pssh!" Chase and his team scoffed simultaneously and Freya frowned, taken back by this action.
Adam and his team were stretching together.
"Weird," she mumbled. Of all people, Chase
Donald shrugged, not questioning him. "Okay, suit yourself." Donald patted Chase's arm, but he flinched, which made his team flinch and Donald frowned.
"The heck is happening," Freya asked herself quietly, tapping her pen on her journal. "It's like his team is copying his movements, why would-" Freya stopped and gasped silently to herself, and gave her boyfriend a blank stare. "Chase, you didn't."
Freya bit the inside of her cheek and shook her head.
Donald walked back over to the teams after a few moments, using his announcer's voice. "Deep in the bowels of the academy is a high-tech maze, complete with obstacles that I control with this tablet." A digital map of the obstacle course appeared on the monitor as he spoke. "Electric walls, ninja stars, and my own personal favorite, flaming balls of fury!" Donald pressed a button on his tablet, and a virtual explosive occurred on the screen as more cheezy game show music played.
This got more weird looks and Donald stopped celebrating, getting embarrassed.
Donald approached the teams once more. "The first team to complete the maze wins, but before we start, I need to see both mentors. Adam, Chase, over here."
Adam and Chase approached him, but Chase's team followed him and Freya frowned at this.
This only increased her suspicions that Chase was controlling his team and she wasn't happy he was doing that.
"Guys, give us a second?" Davenport asked Chase's team, but they didn't budge. "Guys!"
Freya was about to move, but Adam put his arms in front of them. "I got this. Back it up, nerd herd!" Adam pushed Chase's team back and went back to his dad and brother.
"For this challenge, it's just the students," Donald informed them and Freya pressed her lips together, trying not to grin. Freya is very interested in how this will go.
Chase yelped. "What?! No!"
"Teams, I hope you've studied the maze carefully..." Donald advised the students and turned to Freya. "Freya, you may want to move."
"What-" Freya stood up, and hobbled over to the three in the middle. "Why would-"
"Test starts now!" Donald pressed a button and the entire floor, except the circle in the middle opened, dropping the students below the training room.
Freya yelped, bumping into Chase and he caught her arms. "Ah!"
The floor returned and Chase let go of his girlfriend, letting out a yell. "AH."
"Don't worry, Chase. We can track their progress from over here." Donald walked over to the monitor with Adam and Freya as Chase stopped, looking at the monitor with worry.
On the monitor, you can see Adam's team was moving at a great speed, but Chase's team hadn't moved. "Adam, your team is off to a great start. Chase, your team hasn't moved at all." Donald frowned.
Freya glanced back at her boyfriend for a second, wondering how he would make this work.
Adam laughed. "Ha! Looks like you guys are gonna lose again."
"Not if I can help it," Chase muttered to himself and looked at the monitor for a second before he mimicked going through some of the obstacles in the maze.
This got Freya's attention when she saw Chase's team moving and she turned to find Chase sidestepping like a crab along with Adam and Donald.
The three stare as Chase pauses and grins at them. "What? They keep losing. I have to do my "good luck" dance." Chase does an oddly stiff dance and Freya raises an eyebrow at his weird dance. She let out a silent giggle, finding him adorable.
As soon as the three looked away, Chase continued to mimic going through the obstacle course by jumping and running around.

~Mentor's Quarters~
Bree, Leo, and Juliet were covered in guck and trash, still fighting and only making the room a disgusting mess. They had gone to Juliet's quarters, but Cassie quickly turned them away.
Juliet was holding a dead fish and was breathing heavily, standing next to Bree. Leo was across from them, still angry. "Are you done yet?" Bree asked him.
"I could go all night." Leo prodded and Juliet scoffed, shaking her head. "I lost my sense of smell hours ago." Leo got an idea and went behind the couch. "Which is why I can bury you both in Adam's sweaty, dirty workout clothes."
"I'm his girlfriend, nothing about him disgusts me." Juliet jabbed, scoffing. "Do it-"
"No, stop!" Bree yelled as Leo was about to throw the pile on the girls and Juliet turned to Bree with disbelief.
"What? Don't you give up!" Juliet exclaimed to Bree, who let out a huff of impatience.
"This has gone on long enough!" Bree declared, tossing down a rotten fish and Leo put down the clothes.
Juliet sighed throwing the fish behind her. "We could have done one more-"
"No, Jules! You may be okay with Adam's dirty clothes, but I will never let that touch my body." Bree protested and Juliet put her hands up in defense, backing up slightly.
"Alright, fine." Juliet shrugged and chuckled.
"There has to be a way that we can still be messy, and you won't have to clean up after us." Bree exclaimed with exhaustion and Leo immediately got an idea.
"Maybe there is."
โโ
"Great idea, Leo." Juliet praised Leo as they sat in a beautifully clean room, eating pizza with clean clothes on. "This is gonna work out perfectly."
"Yes, it is." Leo nodded.
Bree put her plate down, yelling out. "Okay, I'm finished!" Bree threw the pizza box in the air and the Exoskeleton stood at the door, firing a laser and destroying the pizza box.
"I love it!" Juliet laughed.
"That was awesome!" Leo smiled. "I'm not hungry, but let's order more stuff we can blow up."
"Yes," Juliet said and got to her phone to order stuff as Bree and Leo looked over her shoulder.

~Training Area~
Adam and Chase's team were still in the maze. Freya had stopped focusing on Chase cheating, and was now just staring at him because she found him attractive. He had sweat all over his face and his hair was wet, and she really enjoyed the view. Adam and Donald were watching the monitor, not noticing Chase running for his life next to them.
"Chase, I can't believe it. Your team is winning." Donald said with disbelief and Adam glanced back at Chase now copying his movements.
Donald turned, frowning. "Adam, what are you doing?"
"I don't know, but it's working for Chase." Adam huffed out as he ran in place.
Freya grinned with her eyes scanning all of Chase's body. "It sure is."
Chase started to sidestep and unzipped his jacket, taking it off and Freya sighed, staring at her boyfriend with a smile.
"Now it's even better."
It got interrupted when Adam did the same thing as Chase and she stepped to the side, ignoring him and continuing to gaze at her boyfriend. Donald turned back to the monitor.
"Let's see. How can I make it more interesting?" Donald asked as Chase jumped and Adam copied him. "I know. Flash bombs."
"Fabulous idea." Freya agreed, flashing a smile at Donald and pressed a button, activating flash bombs. Chase quickly covered his face still running in place and Donald groaned. "Not good enough. Better try my flaming balls of fury."
"Yes, you should." Freya nodded, not taking her eyes of Chase. Her eyes gazed upon his arms that with glistening in sweat, feeling flustered at the sight of how attractive he looked.
Chase whined as Davenport activated the balls of fury, before doing a dive roll and containing to run.
"Dang," Freya muttered with an adoring smile.
"Burn, baby, burn!" Donald laughed.
Chase's team was at the end of the maze and Donald was impressed. "Chase, your team is almost out." He turned to Chase, who paused and pretended like he wasn't running for the last hour.
"Oh, great. Go team." Chase awkwardly chuckled with a bright smile and Freya bit her lip, still staring at him.
He's so fit. It's insane. Freya thought to herself.
Donald and Adam turned back to the monitor and Chase continued his running and leaping.
"Almost there." Donald said and Chase's movements were getting more aggressive as he got closer to the finish. "Almost there. Almost there. Almost there... They made it!"
The bell rang and Chase collapsed to the ground with exhaustion and Freya stepped back, staring down at him.
"Aw, come on!" Adam complained as Donald walked back to the middle and Adam joined him.
Freya tilted her head as she looked at Chase with a faint smile, whispering to him. "Even though you cheated, that was incredible to watch."
Chase lifted his head slightly, but was too exhausted to say anything to her.
"Let's bring them up," Donald said and pressed a button that brought the trap door down and went back up, which brought up the teams.
Adam's team was standing, but Chase's team was on the floor in the same position as Chase.
"Wait, why aren't they celebrating?" Donald asked. Chase quickly got up and started jumping up and down, which made his team do the same. Chase started cheering as he jumped back, joining his team and Adam frowned.
"We won, we won, we won!" Chase cheered.
"Wait, a minute!" Adam exclaimed and Chase and his team stopped. "Something's going on here."
Freya looked at Adam, surprised that he caught on to the suspicious behavior.
"Yeah, it's called failure." Chase jabbed smugly.
"No, its not that. I know that really well," Adam remarked.
"Me too," Freya agreed.
Adam took out a pair of glasses and put them on as he approached his brother, who became nervous.
"What are you doing?" Chase asked, only his eyes shifting around with nervousness as his brother circled him.
"Professor Adam is about to conduct a science experiment." Adam said, investigating his brother's anxiety filled physique.
"Oh no, find cover." Freya joked and Donald grinned.
Adam let out a yell as he lifted his foot in the air and stomped on Chase's foot, which made him yell and grab his foot. This made Chase's team grab their feet and hop around like he was doing.
"Just as I thought. This proves they messed with something that caused something to happen, I think." Adam declared and Freya raised her eyebrows, nodding.
She's surprised Adam figured it out before Donald did.
"Chase, care to explain?" Donald asked, walking closer to Chase with Adam and Freya.
Chase gave him an awkward chuckle, which made his team do the same thing. Donald frowned and Chase immediately ran off with his team following him.
Freya sighed, shaking her head with disappointment. "I'll go talk to him." She walked out of the training area.
โโ
~Common Area~
Freya walked into the Common Area, where Chase was sitting at the cyber desk with a downcast expression. Freya could sense her boyfriend's regret from a mile away.
"Chase." Freya began and the youngest Davenport looked up at her. Freya ignored how she was feeling and just talked. "Why would you cheat? You got on me all the time when I cheated."
Before Chase responded, he pulled out another stool and allowed the blonde to sit next to him. Freya sat down placing her crutches against the desk, looking at her boyfriend with raised eyebrows.
"I know, this isn't something I would do. I just got jealous and my ego got the best of me." Chase confessed, sighing with regret.
"I'm glad you could admit it. Now, when Davenport comes in here, you will apologize, right?" Freya asked, gently touching his hand. Chase nodded slowly and Freya grinned. "Good."
"Since when have you been the responsible one?" Chase asked her.
"Since my boyfriend was being childish, I had to step up," Frey admitted, standing up and huffing. "And my mother told me to talk to you."
Chase grinned softly, chuckling. "Stop it. It's weird. I like it when I'm the responsible one and I have to stop you from doing bad things."
"Me too. Glad we can agree." Freya scoffed and the couple high-fived, smiling. Freya's smile dropped slightly when she remembered something she wanted to talk to him about.
"Chase?"
"Yes?"
"I'm sorry about earlier. I've been struggling lately and I didn't mean to take it out on you." Freya apologized. "I always believe in you. My mind hasn't been in the best place."
Chase took her hand massaging it with his thumb. "It's alright, Rey. Today was also rough on me and I wasn't the nicest to you. I'm sorry too."
"I just wanted you to realize your teaching tactics weren't working and wanted to also be supportive without hurting your feelings." Freya confessed. "I was at a crossed roads and didn't want to hurt you."
Freya looked down, biting her lip, hoping she did not offend him. Chase squeezed her hand. "You didn't hurt me. I'm realizing now I need to change how I teach, and you're helping me realize that. So, thank you."
Freya looked up with a gentle smile. "I'll always be supportive of you, but I want to help you improve. Like you do with me."
"I'm thankful for your help. And, I'll always help you, even in your darkest times." Chase remarked. "You can always talk to me. I want you to talk to me if you are struggling."
"I know. I'm struggling, I haven't been okay." Freya admitted, shaking her head and Chase stood up, embracing her. Freya wrapped her arms around his back, resting her head against his chest, exhaling slowly.
"Your foot is making you feel like this, right?" Chase asked and she nodded.
"I was doing so well, and then it went all downhill. My confidence and happiness is gone, and I don't know how to get it back. I can't train or go on missions all because of-"
"Sebasatian," Chase muttered darkly, feeling anger at the mention of his name and Freya nodded. The fear that entered Freya's body at the mention of his name. "If I ever see him again, I will end him."
Freya softly grinned, blushing. "I need help."
"I will help you." Chase offered, pulling away and holding her hands, staring into her eyes.
"Chase, don't-"
Chase cut her off by kissing her tenderly and Freya hummed gently. Chase pulled away and Freya smiled bashfully.
"Nope. Don't say anything. Just accept my help." Chase smiled softly at her and Freya stared into his beautiful hazel eyes, nodding.
"Alright," Freya said. "Thank you."
"Of course." Chase said as Freya stood up carefully and wrapped her arms around his neck with him embracing her tightly.
She so badly wanted to tell Chase she loves him. The feeling of love was strong between the both of them. They loved each other, but didn't know how to say it.
Chase shut his eyes, squeezing her firmly and taking a breath. The feeling of Freya in his arms was the most
