Universe 124
Tuesday, 4th October 2016
Over a week later, the Elite Force and the DiLaurentis brothers walked into the penthouse.
- "I love that movie. I've seen it five times!" AJ exclaimed, before frowning. "Oh, I hope I didn't ruin the ending for you guys."
Chase snickered.
- "No. You had already ruined the beginning and the middle, so I didn't really care about the end." Kaz shook his head.
- "I told you to stop doing that." Ezra frowned.
- "I know." The youngest DiLaurentis nodded. "So, uh, what do you guys wanna do now?"
- "We should go home." The older brother replied.
- "Already?" Oliver frowned, sadly, as he held his hand.
- "Sorry, babe." Ezra smiled softly.
The genius boy looked at them. They're cute. I'm glad Ezra feels more comfortable and less shy with us.
Bree put her hands on AJ's shoulders.
- "Hey, um, why don't you stay right here with your brother, while we go have a quick little team meeting out on the terrace?" She suggested.
- "Okay." The youngest DiLaurentis nodded.
- "Okay." The bionic girl repeated and pulled her brother away. The Elite Force walked out on the terrace and the doors closed behind them. "Chase. Look, I know you told AJ he could hang out with us, but this is getting ridiculous. He never leaves! Ezra leaves, but not AJ!"
- "Yeah. This morning I came down for a bowl of cereal, and he poured my milk, which was nice, but kinda creepy." The Evers boy said.
- "Look, guys, the only reason that AJ's been hanging around so much is 'cause he doesn't have any friends." The green hazel-eyed boy explained.
- "Ah, so he's a mini you. Got it." The Karev boy grinned.
Skylar smacked his arm.
Chase shook his head as he licked his lips.
- "Look." The Davenport girl put her hand on her brother's shoulder. "It is nice that you're looking out for him, but we just need a little bit of space."
- "Yeah, and not to mention it's really risky. I mean, we have to keep our superhero status a secret." The brown-eyed boy added. "Ezra being around it's already risky, but AJ, it's worse he's never there."
- "Ezra has no idea." The blue-eyed boy frowned. "And he's my boyfriend. I'm allowed to have a boyfriend."
- "Yes, but he cannot know." The Calderan said.
- "I know." Oliver nodded.
- "Neither can AJ." The Storm girl continued.
- "Okay." The genius boy licked his lips as he nodded. "I get it. I'll go break his heart and tell him he can't hang around us as much."
The team walked back inside.
- "Hey, great cookies. Got anything to, uh, wet my whistle?" AJ asked.
The older DiLaurentis slapped his forehead, in despair.
- "Uh, look, AJ. We should talk." The green hazel-eyed boy started. "There's been some concern, mostly from the others, about you being around so much."
- "Yeah, I get it." The youngest DiLaurentis got up from the couch. "Come on, Zee."
- "You do?" Chase frowned.
- "Yeah. They're afraid we're gonna find out they're superheroes." AJ said.
Of course, he knows. The genius boy scoffed.
- "I thought they weren't supposed to know?" Ezra asked.
The youngest DiLaurentis shrugged.
- "Woah." Kaz said.
- "What?" The Evers boy frowned.
- "Us?" Skylar asked.
- "That's... that's crazy." The Karev boy added.
- "Yeah, we're bionic." The eldest boy replied.
- "No, you're not." AJ frowned. "She's an alien and you two touched the Arcturion space rock."
Wow. The green hazel-eyed boy looked at him with wide eyes.
- "They know too much." The brown-eyed boy said.
- "How did you know we were superheroes?" The Calderan questioned.
- "It's my fault. I'm just way too heroic looking to pass for normal." Kaz chuckled.
Chase rolled his eyes. Right, this HAS to be why how they know.
- "I've known your secret for weeks." The youngest DiLaurentis said.
- "And I've known your secret for months." The older DiLaurentis added.
- "Why didn't you say anything?" Oliver asked.
- "Because nobody knows about superheroes, so I figured you weren't allowed to say anything." Ezra shrugged.
- "And you still dated me even if you knew I was lying to you?" The Evers boy frowned.
- "Well, yeah, I love you, and you do it to save lives, there are worst lies." The older DiLaurentis shrugged.
Aw. The genius boy smiled softly.
- "You love me?" The eldest boy smiled and walked up to him.
- "Didn't mean to say it in front of everyone." Ezra frowned.
- "I love you too." Oliver said and, gently, kissed his lips.
The older DiLaurentis smiled shyly.
- "Okay, lovebirds, we have more important matters." The Storm girl said. "If AJ or Ezra tell the public that superheroes exist, it'll cause hysteria. Not to mention, we'll be under a microscope, which will make tracking Roman and Riker even harder."
- "Why would I sell you out when I'm trying to convince you to make me a part of the team?" AJ asked.
- "And why would I sell out the man I love and his friends?" Ezra frowned.
- "They're right." The green hazel-eyed boy said. "Look, Ezra already showed us that we could trust him when he didn't say anything about Mission Command, and AJ's a smart kid. I think we can trust them."
- "Or can we?" The Karev boy yelled next to the brothers, who gave him strange looks."They didn't flinch, I think we're good."
- "Now that we're cool, there's something I wanna show you guys." The youngest DiLaurentis walked to his bag, making the six follow him. "My Elite Force Breakdown." He pulled out his tablet. "I've compiled all your abilities and superpowers and then ranked your value to the team, one through five."
The list went in descending order: Skylar, Kaz, Bree, Oliver, and Chase.
- "Um, why am I third?" Bree asked.
- "Skylar has 24 powers, and you have 5." AJ replied.
Chase chuckled.
- "Alright, Oliver, freeze that punk!" The bionic girl pulled her friend in front of the little boy.
- "Don't be upset. It's not like you're last." The youngest DiLaurentis said. "Chase is."
The genius boy's smile dropped.
- "What?!" He snatched the tablet from his hands and looked at it.
- "Relax. It's not personal: it's just accurate." AJ replied.
The green hazel-eyed boy glared at him.
- "You know how to treat your idol, bro." The older DiLaurentis patted his brother's back.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
Wednesday, 5th October 2016
The next day, Chase and AJ were working on something in Mission Command. A sheet was covering something in the middle of the room.
- "Hey guys." Oliver walked in. "What you working on?"
- "Well, Chase wants to move up the list, so I'm helping him find a way to get to missions faster. You and Kaz fly, Bree and Skylar have super speed." The DiLaurentis boy explained.
- "And Chase has a bus pass." The Evers boy smiled, mockingly.
The genius boy looked at him, undignified.
- "Hey, it's not just a bus pass, it also works for the subway!" He defended.
- "Anyways, a few days ago, I came up with the idea for this." The curly-haired boy unveiled a hover bike. "A high-tech hover bike that will speed him to missions in no time."
- "Cool. So how does it work?" The blue-eyed boy asked.
- "Well, the hover technology allows it to float off the ground and just wait till you see how fast it goes." The green hazel-eyed boy put on the helmet and got on the hover bike. He turned it on and braced himself. "Hey! Why am I going so slow?"
- "Here, maybe this will work." AJ pressed a few buttons on his tablet.
- "AAAAHH!" Chase speeded and hit the wall.
He groaned on the floor.
- "At least we know the helmet works." The DiLaurentis boy shrugged.
Kaz walked out from behind a rock wall.
- "Kaz? What were you doing out there?" Oliver frowned.
The genius boy got up, in pain.
- "Uh, I was... Chase, what's the word for exploring underground passages?" The Karev boy asked.
- "Spelunking." The green hazel-eyed boy replied.
- "Yeah, I was exploring underground passages." The brown-eyed boy smiled.
Why did you ask? Chase frowned.
- "Wait, I know that fake smile. You're up to something." The Evers boy walked up to his best friend. "What are you hiding out there?"
The two youngest crossed their arms, with a frown on their faces.
What he is up to? The genius boy thought.
- "Nothing." Kaz shrugged.
The blue-eyed boy tried to walk past him, but the Karev boy blocked him again and again.
The two youngest ran to the other side and when the brown-eyed boy stopped them, Oliver walked to the other side.
- "Oh yeah! I'm through!" He yelled.
The green hazel-eyed boy smiled.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
A couple of minutes later, Kaz led the three boys to one of the tunnels, where tons of stuff was piled up.
- "Cool." AJ said.
- "What is all this junk?" Oliver frowned.
- "It's not junk. They're my mementos. I can never throw anything away." The Karev boy replied. "I can't help it; I'm a hoarder."
- "Ugh." Chase groaned, in disgust, and picked up a retainer. "Is this your retainer?"
- "It's a retainer. Try it on, I did." The brown-eyed boy smiled.
- "Eww!" The genius boy yelled and dropped the retainer.
- "Whoa." The DiLaurentis boy walked to the childhood best friends with a glowing ball in a triangle glass box. "What's this?"
- "That's the Arcturion." The Evers boy took it.
- "This is what gave you two your superpowers?" The curly-haired boy asked.
- "Ah. The pyramid with a glowy racquetball inside. Now that is science." The green hazel-eyed boy put a hand on the blue-eyed boy's shoulder.
- "I thought it was destroyed when Roman and Riker took out Mighty Med." He said.
- "I thought so, too. It must've ended up in one of those storage bins. I didn't even know it was down here." Kaz shrugged.
- "How do you open it?" AJ asked.
- "You don't." The Karev boy took it from his best friend's hands. "If any human makes direct contact with the orb, it'll kill them."
- "It's the coolest thing I've ever seen. I just wanna..." The DiLaurentis boy reached to the Arcturion.
- "No." Chase pushed his hand down.
- "Touch it so I can ..." The curly-haired boy extended his hand.
- "No." The genius boy pushed his hand away.
- "Study it..." AJ continued.
- "No!" The green hazel-eyed boy pushed his hand down. "Go over there and play with the retainer."
The DiLaurentis boy sighed and walked further.
Okay, Mads was right. I do act like a dad with kids. Chase frowned.
- "Look, guys, we can't have something this dangerous just lying around. My dad has a secure storage area called Facility Y where it'll be safe. You two take it there." He ordered, and the two best friends started to walk away. The genius boy picked up something. "Why would you save this?" He frowned.
- "I didn't. That's a dead rat." The brown-eyed boy walked away.
The green hazel-eyed boy groaned and threw it away.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
Later, Bree walked into the tunnels.
- "Hey, Bree. You're just in time to watch our latest test run." AJ said.
- "Oh, is Chase gonna get hurt? If so, I'm in." The bionic girl replied.
Chase scoffed as he adjusted his helmet.
- "Not gonna happen. We worked out all the kinks. Soon I'll be able to get to missions as fast as you. Then you'll be at the bottom of the list, and I'll be at the top." He smiled.
- "Uh, no, you won't." The DiLaurentis boy replied.
- "Okay, you are not in charge of the list anymore!" The genius boy yelled, frustrated. He got on the hover bike and flew away. "Whoo-hoo!"
- "Doesn't look that fast." The Davenport girl said.
- "Really? 'Cause I clocked him going faster than you." The curly-haired boy shrugged.
- "No, you didn't. Let me see that." Bree snatched his tablet. "Okay, you know what? I don't have time for this." She gave him his tablet back. "Just call me when he crashes." She walked away.
The green hazel-eyed boy pressed the brakes, but nothing happened.
- "AH! The brakes aren't working!" He shouted, before he crashed against a wall.
- "Oh, Bree!" AJ called out.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
Thursday, 6th October 2016
The next day, late in the afternoon, the eldest and youngest of the team walked in the Penthouse, after they went out for a smoothie.
- "What is that?" Skylar asked.
Chase frowned. What the...
The childhood best friends had a man-made object in their hands. They were each holding a side, Kaz the plunger and Oliver the scissors.
- "Uh, this is... uh, garden shear pool noodle plunger." He said.
Right. The genius boy frowned and looked at his sister's girlfriend.
The Calderan looked at the youngest, in despair.
I know. The green hazel-eyed boy sighed.
- "Obviously." The Karev boy added.
- "What's going on?" Chase questioned.
- "We built this because we wanted to touch the Arcturion without getting zapped." The Evers boy explained.
The genius boy frowned, in disbelief. They kept it.
- "Wait. You still have it?" The Storm girl asked.
- "Get rid of it like I told you to, yesterday." The green hazel-eyed boy said.
- "Fine. Consider it gone." The blue-eyed boy walked to the kitchen cabinet. "Actually, it is gone."
- "What do you mean it's gone?" The brown-eyed boy questioned.
- "Someone must've taken it. I bet it was AJ. He wanted the Arcturion as soon as he saw it." Oliver replied. "Ezra is gonna kill me if something happens to him."
AJ ran in.
- "Hey, guys, did you see me on the news last night? I told everyone you were superheroes." He smiled.
Chase rolled his eyes. Right.
- "What?!" Skylar yelled.
- "Kidding. You guys gotta lighten up." The DiLaurentis boy said.
The genius boy walked up to him, angrily.
- "We know what you did, AJ. Give us back the space rock." He extended his hand.
- "What are you talking about?" The curly-haired boy frowned.
- "It's missing, and everyone saw how badly you wanted it." The green hazel-eyed boy gestured to him to give it.
- "No, I didn't take it. I swear." AJ defended.
Chase looked at him, in disbelief.
- "I can't believe you're lying to me." He said. "You know what, AJ? If you're not gonna admit it, then we're not gonna be friends anymore."
- "What?" The DiLaurentis boy's eyes watered.
- "You heard me." The genius boy nodded. "Get out." He looked away from the crying little boy and pointed at the door.
The curly-haired boy let a couple tears ran down his cheeks, before running out the door.
The green hazel-eyed boy sighed.
- "Don't feel bad, Chase." The Calderan put a hand on his shoulder. "It had to be him. I mean, the only other person who knew about the Arcturion was..." She looked at Chase. "Oh no!"
- "What's wrong, Sky?" He frowned.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
A couple of seconds later, in one of the tunnels, Bree opened the Arcturion's case.
The other members of the team ran in.
- "No, Bree, don't!" Skylar yelled.
The bionic girl was about to touch the Arcturion.
Chase frowned. No!
The Calderan blasted the Arcturion and the blast ricocheted on her girlfriend, blasting her into the wall behind.
The genius boy looked at his sister, in shock and fear.
The Davenport girl fell to the ground and everyone rushed over to her.
The green hazel-eyed boy, slightly, turned her to make sure she was breathing.
Bree opened her eyes.
Chase sighed, in relief. Dang it. He, quickly, hugged her.
- "You're okay." He and the Storm girl help the bionic girl help.
- "What did you blast me for?" She asked.
- "I wasn't aiming at you." Skylar frowned. "I just wanted to knock you away from the Arcturion. I was trying to save your life."
- "Yeah. If you actually touched it, let's just say, there'd be one less person on AJ's list." Oliver said.
- "But just to be clear, Chase, you'd still be at the bottom." Kaz grinned.
The genius boy frowned. Seriously? Now?
- "Wait. So... So the rock could've killed me?" The Davenport girl asked.
- "Yeah." The green hazel-eyed boy nodded. "What were you doing with it in the first place?"
- "I don't know. I found it in the cabinet. I thought if I touched it, I'd get more powers." Bree replied.
- "Why would you want more powers?" Chase frowned.
- "Yeah. I mean, we could understand Chase, but..." The Karev boy started.
- "Okay, we get it! I'm at the bottom!" The genius boy yelled, making the childhood best friends smile. "Bree, what's going on?" He walked up to his sister.
- "Speed has always been my thing. And then when Skylar came in and had speed to, it just... Made me feel less important." The bionic girl explained, sadly. "I know M had speed too, but she almost never used it, so I never felt like this... Until this year."
The green hazel-eyed boy looked down, sadly. I didn't know she felt this way. I was so focused on finding Mads that I didn't notice how bad my own sister felt.
- "Baby, you know that's not true." The Calderan shook her head.
- "Yeah, but when I saw my name near the bottom of AJ's list, I realized other people think I'm unimportant too." The Davenport girl continued, with tears in her eyes.
You're not unimportant. Chase, gently, took her hand.
- "Look, I know that touching the rock was selfish, but..." Bree said. "I just wanted to feel special again."
The genius boy exhaled and squeezed her hand.
The bionic girl squeezed his hand in response.
- "I get it, but it's just too risky." The Storm girl nodded. "I'll take the Arcturion back to Facility Y." She closed the case of the Arcturion.
- "You're very important." The green hazel-eyed boy whispered to his sister. "To me, to our family, to Skylar, to even those two idiots."
- "Thanks." The Davenport girl smiled, softly.
- "Oh, you know, that's... that's pretty far." The brown-eyed boy said. "Maybe we should just keep it in the cupboard and hope for the best." He tried to touch it, but Skylar slapped his hand away.
They walked away.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
A few seconds later, the Elite Force went back to Mission Command.
Chase frowned and looked around.
- "Hey, where's the hover bike?" He asked.
- "AJ. That sneaky little punk." Oliver said. "I'm gonna tell his brother."
- "No, it's not his fault. It's mine." The genius boy defended. "I accused him of taking the Arcturion. He's just trying to get back at me by stealing the bike. Look, I can track him by using the bike's locator." He took out his phone. "Looks like he's joyriding around the tunnels. Come on. We can cut him off this way."
The boys ran out.
Bree put her hands on her knees as she bent down. She looked pale.
- "Baby? Are you okay?" Skylar frowned.
- "I don't know. Ever since you zapped me, I've been in a lot of pain." The bionic girl replied.
- "That's weird. I didn't even fire at full strength." The Calderan said. "Hold on. When my lightning blast ricocheted off the orb, it must've magnified my power. That's why you're..." The Davenport girl collapsed onto the floor. "Bree!" She put down the Arcturion and rushed to her girlfriend. "Baby!"
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
In the meanwhile, the boys were in one of the tunnels.
- "Okay, AJ should be speeding through here any second now. Guys, get in position." Chase ordered.
- "Got it." Oliver nodded.
- "Right." Kaz added. "Uh, question. What exactly is the standard position for catching a ten-year-old on a hover bike?"
The genius boy frowned, in despair.
- "Well, we could go with the teapot, or a capital L and maybe a back bridge." The Evers boy suggested.
- "Just stand on opposite sides!" The green hazel-eyed boy yelled.
- "Here he comes." The Karev boy said.
- "Get him!" The blue-eyed boy yelled.
AJ flew in between them, making the childhood best friends hug each other.
Chase frowned.
- "Gotcha!" The brown-eyed boy chuckled. "We probably should've gone with the teapot."
They let go of each other.
- "What's with all the smoke?" Oliver asked.
- "Oh, no. AJ isn't heavy enough to keep the bike under its maximum velocity. The engine is burning up." The genius boy explained. "You guys have to fly there and save him before it blows!"
- "What about you? Aren't you gonna come with us?" The Evers boy questioned.
- "He can't. Bus doesn't come for another half an hour." Kaz mocked and ran away.
The blue-eyed boy grimaced and followed him.
The green hazel-eyed boy sighed. I am so useless.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
A couple of minutes later, Bree was laying back on her girlfriend.
- "Chase!" Skylar yelled. "Kaz! Somebody help! This is all my fault." She sighed. "If I hadn't bragged about my superpowers and made you jealous, none of this would've happened."
- "No, babe. It's..." The bionic girl, weakly, shook her head. "It's my fault, thinking the rock would fix everything."
- "Wait. Maybe it can." The Calderan said. "The supernatural energy from the Arcturion should heal you. If I touch it, the healing energy will pass through me to you, and my superpowers should protect me." She, gently, pushed her girlfriend off her and got up.
She held her hand and ripped the opening of the case with her free hand.
- "No, babe. It's too dangerous." The Davenport girl replied. "I'm not letting you do this."
- "And I'm not letting you die!" The Storm girl exclaimed, firmly. "I love you too much." She, quickly, bent down and kissed her lips, before standing up again.
She touched the Arcturion with her right hand as the energy went through her body, going to Bree.
Skylar held on for a few seconds, before the two girls fainted.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
In the meanwhile, AJ was still on the fuming hover bike.
- "Whoo-hoo! Yeah!" He exclaimed. "Whoo-hoo!"
The childhood best friends flew towards him.
- "AJ!" Kaz yelled.
The DiLaurentis boy screamed.
- "What are you doing?" He asked.
- "We know you didn't take the Arcturion." Oliver said.
- "Tell me something I don't know." The curly-haired boy replied.
- "Your hover bike's about to explode." The Karev boy said.
- "What?!" AJ yelled.
- "It's going too fast, the engine is smoking." The Evers boy added. "And now it's on fire."
The DiLaurentis boy looked back and saw the fire.
- "What are we going to do?" He questioned.
- "Jump!" The childhood best friends, simultaneously, shouted.
The curly-haired boy let go of the commands and jumped backwards, screaming.
The three boys landed on the ground.
- "AJ, are you okay?" The brown-eyed boy asked with his eyes closed as he patted his best friend's shoulder.
- "Yeah, but I'm not AJ." The blue-eyed boy said.
- "I'm over here." AJ got up. The hover bike exploded from afar. "Wow. You guys saved my life."
Chase arrived on rollers.
- "I took these from your junk pile. I got here as fast as I could." He rolled away from them.
He screamed as he crashed against a wall. Ow.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
A couple of minutes later, Skylar was holding her girlfriend's hand and was waiting for her to wake up.
Bree started to wake up.
- "Baby, are you okay?" The Calderan asked.
- "Wait, you have six heads. Is this an alien thing, or am I just dizzy?" The bionic girl asked as she sat up.
- "You're dizzy." The Storm girl smiled. "Wait." She frowned and moved her hands around her head. "Yeah, it's you." She nodded.
The Davenport girl got up.
- "Wow. I feel great." She smiled and turned to her girlfriend. "How are you?" She touched her arm.
- "I'm fine." Skylar said, making her girlfriend frown. "Okay... I lost a few of my powers."
- "What? Well, why didn't you tell me that could happen?" Bree asked.
- "Because if I did, you wouldn't have let me do it." The Calderan replied, before putting her hand on girlfriend's cheeks. "Look, Bree, I would've given up all my powers to save you. I love you."
- "I...I don't even know what to say. Thank you." The bionic girl pulled her, tightly. "I love you."
The Storm girl smiled as she caressed her hair, before frowning.
- "Ow! Ow! Ow!" She yelled and pulled back.
- "Whoa, whoa, what just happened?" The Davenport girl frowned.
- "Ow." Skylar looked at the burn handprints on the back of her shirt. "You burned my brand-new shirt. That's what just happened."
Bree walked further away, in shock and put her hand on a tablet, accidentally, burning it.
- "Um... Skylar?" She showed the burn handprint of her hand.
- "Whoa. That's Thermal Touch." The Calderan said. "You made indirect contact with the Arcturion. Bree, you have superpowers."
- "Wait, what?" The bionic girl looked at her hands, when a ring appeared in her right hand. "Whoa, okay, what is that?"
- "It's a proton ring." The Storm girl smiled.
- "What do I do with it?" The Davenport girl asked.
- "Throw it." Skylar chuckled.
Bree threw the proton ring, and it came back in her hand, like a boomerang.
- "Whoa." She said, and the ring disappeared. "That felt amazing. Wait, it is supposed to go in a circle, right?"
- "I am so excited for you, baby." The Calderan smiled widely. "Come on. Let's go tell everyone. I cannot wait to see Chase's face when he finds out." She started to walk away.
- "Hey, um... I actually kind of wanna hold off for a little bit. I mean, it's just a lot to take in." The bionic girl said.
- "Okay. It'll be our little secret." The Storm girl nodded.
- "Wow. I can't believe I actually have superpowers. That makes me..." The Davenport girl started.
- "The world's first bionic-superhero hybrid." Skylar replied.
- "I was gonna say number one on AJ's list, but that works too." Bree said.
The Calderan snickered.
- "Thank you again for saving me." The hybrid added.
- "I always will, but try to not almost die on me again." The Storm girl said.
- "I'll try." The Davenport girl chuckled.
- "Come on." Skylar took her girlfriend's away and led her to the Hyper-Lift.
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
Later, the DiLaurentis brothers were in the kitchen with Oliver.
- "Is everything okay with you and Chase?" He asked.
- "Yeah. It hurt my feelings that he didn't believe me, but he apologized so we're good now." AJ nodded.
- "If he yells at you again, you tell me, and I'll go scream at him again." Ezra said.
- "I can't believe you did that." The Evers boy chuckled.
- "He's shy only with strangers, afterward he can be mean to defend me." The youngest snickered.
- "You're exaggerating." The older DiLaurentis scoffed.
- "Sure, remind me what you did to this guy at your school, who said that I was weird?" AJ raised his eyebrows.
Ezra looked at his brother and his boyfriend.
- "Nothing. I did nothing." He said.
- "Oh, I wanna know what you did." The eldest replied.
- "Not a chance." The older DiLaurentis shook his head.
Oliver chuckled and kissed his cheek.
- "I'll find out, one day." He murmured.
- "Good luck with that." Ezra smiled.
- "Anyway, I've also decided to get rid of the list, because everyone on the team has their own unique value." The youngest explained.
- "Chase told you to say that, didn't he?" The Evers boy asked.
- "Yes, he did." AJ sighed.
- "He's right." The older DiLaurentis nodded.
- "Well, I'm glad you guys worked everything out. But I was kinda hoping you'd still wanna get back at him for not trusting you." The eldest boy said.
- "Why?" The brothers frowned.
- "Because I have a really awesome prank I've been dying to pull on him." Oliver smiled widely.
The youngest slapped his forehead.
- "Oliver, that is SO immature." He said.
The Evers boy sighed.
- "Three. Two. One." Ezra mumbled.
- "Let's do it!" AJ exclaimed.
- "Alright!" The eldest ran to the desk. "Watch this. Chase, get up here quick. There's a mission alert!"
- "I'll be right there." Chase replied. He arrived via the Hyper-Lift with the rollers. "Whoa, stairs!" He flopped on my stomach.
The three other boys laughed loudly.
- "That could not have gone better." Oliver said.
The genius boy groaned, on the floor.
