Family

Kyle and his mother were so moved by their reunion. Kyle's siblings sensed something strange was going on so they went to the front door. There they saw their big brother!

"Kyle!" Mini, his sister, yelled. She ran to him as quickly as she could and tore him from his mother's embrace and gave him a big hug. Kevin and Carter were also excited and bounced around.

They weren't as interested in giving hugs; they mostly tried to tackle their brother. It was boyish affection. Kyle wrestled with his little brothers in front of the door.

His mother finally brought him inside to continue celebrating.

"Alright, it's a special night, what do you want for dinner tonight Kyle?" his mother asked him.

"Pizza," Carter said.

"Pizza," Kevin said.

Kyle laughed at his brothers.

"I don't want pizza, I want hamburgers, ice cream, Dr. Thunderpantz, and some Sniggers," Kyle said as he laughed.

"My goodness, did they starve you in there?" Kyle's mother asked.

"The diet was very strict. They had to heal my body to help me control my strength. That takes a lot of discipline," Kyle answered his mother.

"Are you better? Did they succeed? Can you control your powers now?" She asked.

"Yeah, everything went great. I even got stronger inside," Kyle laughed.

"Stronger? Is that unusual," she asked worriedly.

"Nah, the Center is really good at helping people get stronger. I'll just need to go back for checkups and whatnot. Dr. Yu said he would contact you about all of that," Kyle ended the conversation and play with his brothers.

Kyle's mother left and went to the grocery store his Kyle's sister, Mini. Mini loved going to the store and felt extra grownup whenever she felt like she was making a sacrifice for the greater good.

In this case, she gave up the chance to play with her big brother who she missed. She figured Kyle could play with their brothers and make them happy; while she and their mother bought dinner and treats.

A little over an hour later, Mini and their mother returned with bags filled with treats and candy. They also had Joe Joe Burgers for everyone. Each of the boys received a Little Joe Meal with a toy.

The toy for the meal was one of six possible action figures featuring one of the team members from El Escuadrón Invencible (The Invincible Squadron), a group of real-life teenage superheroes.

Both boys got Ojo de Aguila (Eagle Eye) as their figure. They asked if they could exchange one of the Ojo de Aquila for a different character, but were informed he was the only one they had in stock.

It was really hard to collect all six figures, the boys explained repeatedly to whoever would listen, even not listening was fine. There were just a few of one character but lots of others.

Ojo De Aquila was plentiful and the boys already had three of him. They had four, but the fourth one met an unfortunate end involving a microwave.

The microwave also died as a result of its injuries sustained during the great battle.

Kyle got a Big Joe Greedy Rancher Burger with XXXL Fries and XXXL Dr. Thunderpantz. Mini bought a Lady Joe Birdwhich (mini chicken sandwich) with an sm Fry and sm Dr. Thunderpantz.

Momma Kane got a regular Hungry Joe Burger which was made for those on a diet. It came with a breadless hamburger, carrots, and mineral water.

Kyle really wanted to watch a movie during dinner, so the family watched a comedy Kyle hadn't seen yet, "Anywhere but Here," a typical RomCom style movie starring Ford Fetch.

It was a great movie and Kyle felt really relaxed and happy. They watched a second movie while scarfing down treats and finally everyone went to bed.

The next day, Kyle woke up around noon. It wasn't a big deal because of spring break. His plan for the break was to mostly lay around.

He also felt he would like to create a new costume for his return to school. Maybe he would also create a new school uniform.

He really enjoyed crafting and creating formations. To him, there was nothing more peaceful than the creation of a set of armor and weapons.

The rest of the family were normal people. Kyle was the only super kid in the family. He had always worried about the safety of his family in the past. Now that he could create artifacts with formations he could create things to protect them.

Whatever he created for them would need to be low key enough that no one came to his door or the Center to force them to hand over their secrets.

Whatever he made, it needed to be something his family would always keep on them no matter what. It also needed to be able to protect them.

One of the things Lady Gilgaba and Mr. Davenport taught him was to always consider the personality and needs of the customer.

The easiest thing for him to do was grab something they already kept on them all the time. Keven and Carter both had power watches.

The Power Watch would record a brief phrase and play it back in one of six cool voices. From Cyborg Warlord to goofy cartoon character the power of imagination was in your hands!

At least, that's what the ad said. He added a protective formation to their watches. Unless they were in a life-threatening situation, they would never realize it was there.

Mini always wore pink sunglasses. He added the protective formation to that, but since she was older and grown-up; he added the telescopic, microscopic, and thermoscopic options to the glasses. He made her promise not to tell anyone. She loved them!

For his mother, he created set of jewelry that could have three styles. They would not only protect her but also add a little extra energy to her body when she got tired.

She was really impressed with the gifts. He told her he learned a lot of neat tricks at the Center, but she shouldn't tell anyone since it was a secret.

This was how he spent his spring break. Sleeping, playing, eating, and making fun things. The next day he would return to his school, Dallas Intercessor Academy.

He was nervous but also looking forward to it. He couldn't wait to see Ryan.
