This one is dedicated to Unicorn (she actually has different usernames on every site so that's just what I'm calling her). I hope you like it!

"Okay, so this group of criminals have been loosely connected with the shapeshifters. We need to sneak in and find proof." Chase explained.
"Let's go in slowly so they don't see us coming. We're just looking for any information. Kaz, Oliver, you guys find physical files and digital ones. Skylar and I can use our super speed to go through them and see if they are useful." Bree explained, and Chase piped up, saying he would listen in on the group with his bionic hearing. "Hey, be careful." Bree insisted, quickly putting her hand on her brother's shoulder.
Chase nodded, and watched as his team went into the back entrance. Meanwhile, he went through the front entrance. He leaned up against one of the walls, trying to be sneaky as he activated his hearing. Unfortunately, they were just talking about someone stealing food from the vending machine. 'Unless it's some sort of code.' He realized, and continued to listen.
That's when he felt cold metal being pressed against his head, and someone roughly grab his arm. He had to bite back a swear as he heard the man speak. "You're coming with us. Try anything, and I won't hesitate to shoot."
Chase knew just how much of a bad idea it was to resist, so he agreed and started to walk where the man was leading him. What happened next was a blur. He felt a rush of super speed knock him to the ground and when he looked up, he saw Bree brutally attacking the group.
"Touch him again, and I'll rip off your fingers and use them as bowling pins!" She yelled, with a much deeper tone, and Chase jumped up, nearly colliding with his teammates.
"Um, what's that? Chase?" Kaz questioned as they all watched Bree pummel one of the guys to the ground.
"Douglas said he deactivated Bree's Commando App!"
"What's a commando app?" Oliver asked, wincing when he heard one of the guys yell when Bree punched them.
"It's a long story." Chase insisted before glancing over at his "sister" and deciding that they had time for a brief explanation, ending with "We can't shut it off. We have to wait for her aggression levels to go down."
"Don't you have the overriding thing?" Oliver questioned.
"I don't know if it works on the commando app."
"Why not?"
"Because usually, I'm the one who's like that!" Chase yelled as he gestured to Bree, making Kaz laugh.
"I'd pay to see that."
"Well, at least she's done beating them up." Skylar offered as she gestured to Bree, who was now pacing around the unconscious group.
Chase nodded, and approached her slowly, trying to keep his voice from wavering too much. "Hey, um...Spikerella?"
"Baby!" She shouted happily, wrapping her arms around Chase's shoulders tightly. He tried to struggle as he could hear his teammates chuckle in the background, but her grip only got stronger.
"I'll speed you two home." Skylar perked up after Oliver and Kaz already flew off toward the penthouse.
"I will take care of baby!" Spikerella added, glaring Skylar down as she wrapped her arm around Chase's before speeding them to the penthouse. Oliver and Kaz had already set up a new round of Topple the Tower, so she sped downstairs and came back with Douglas.
"What happened?" Douglas demanded when he saw Bree sitting with Chase on the couch and running her hand down his arm.
"Spikerella engaged on the mission and saved Chase from getting shot, but now she won't disengage." Skylar explained before Chase added from the couch.
"Can you please turn this off?" Douglas nodded, typing a few things into his watch and Bree's head twitched before she turned to her brother, uncle and best friend.
"What happened?"
"Douglas didn't uninstall your commando app, but on the bright side, you kept Chase from getting shot." Skylar explained.
Bree got up from the couch and shouted at her uncle. She had been promised months ago that it would've been uninstalled after she subdued Spikette, but now it seemed that she had been lied too. "Why did you leave that activated?! You said you would shut it down!" She took a deep breath before turning to her brother who was still sitting on the couch, not seeing her uncle exit the room. "Chase, are you okay?"
"Just a little scarred for life. I'll be alright." Chase shrugged before adding. "Oh, and the gun to the head thing wasn't fun either."
"I'm sure it wasn't that bad." Bree insisted, resting her arm on Chase's shoulder.
"I'm sure there's some footage of it that I can show you."
Bree rolled her eyes, wrapping the arm that was on his shoulder around him. "I could baby you now."
Chase shook his head erratically, and insisted. "I'm so, so good."
