Chapter 60 - Skipping Phases (1/2)
Before getting to some real fun Theodore first introduced the convenient changing rooms. Taking out a set of deck chairs and beach umbrellas they set up a place to relax and sunbathe.
With everything done Theodore took out a long piece of metal. The long piece of metal had a tattoo like an appearance boarding on tribal and robotic.
Passing a set around Theodore then introduce it ”This is an emergency safety tat. It will review your situation for any dangers. Once it detects any form of danger that could be life threatening or leave you crippled it will deploy a barrier to protect you”
He then moved to show how to use it ”All you do is place it near your wrist then it will wrap around and sink into your skin. Then you have a cool tattoo that keeps you safe. In case you're worried that it's permanent then don't fret as it easily detaches”
Around his wrist was a black and white tattoo that covered his forearm. The tattoo appeared to be a tribal tattoo that had mechanical and cyberpunk vibe. Most importantly it was it good looking.
”Sorry, but why a tattoo, don't you think the kids are too young for a tattoo's” Said Laura who immediately confiscated her kid's safety tat.
”ah Sorry, I almost forgot there's also a black elastic band version,” Said, Theo, pulling out a plain black wrist band
”Can I have the tattoo Dad, It looks really cool?” Said Cooper excitedly
”Sure thing buddy, we'll take two safety, tats,” Said, Clint while rubbing his son's hair
”Cooper, you ain't keeping it on after this. Well, we'll take the wrist band's, thank you,” Said, Laura happily
With everyone wearing the necessary protection Theodore began to speak ”Okay, so what's first jet ski's, banana boat, surfing, windsurfing or maybe just a swim”
”I can't swim there's too much water, dad!” Said Rose while raising her hand
”Pool too big,” Said, Chloe shaking frightfully while looking at the open ocean
”I can swim,” Said, Cooper proudly with a confident nod
Lila tugged at her mother's hand with a pleading look.
Laura looked down and said ”Don't worry, Dad, Cooper and Mommy, will teach ya”
Lila gave a wide smile and nodded happily.
Clint and Theodore were stood side by side while Rose, Chloe and Lida held onto their outstretched arms.
”Dad, I can't feel the ground, Where the ground!?” Shouted Rose fearful
”I don't want to swim, Daddy,” Said, Chloe
”I'm a scared dad,” Said Lida tearfully towards Clint
Theodore looked at Clint as they both exchange the same look of concern.
”So like how did you learn to swim” Said Theo as the kids began to splash each other with their free hand
”I fell off a boat and was forced to adapt” Said Clint with a deep sigh before continuing ”What about you?”
”When I was 4 my family went on a trip to Fiji, there I learnt how the locals learnt to swim” Said Theo with some difficult
”Sounds nice,” Said Clint
”Let me finish, my family and other families took a boat to the deep waters and then they took the kids by the armpits and through them a few meters away from the boat, and then we just swim,” Said Theo
”Haha, didn't you say your family was normal,” Said Clint
”Well, they are normal but the moment they learn something they have the need to try it out and at the time I was seen as a genius for a kid so they thought I would be fine well try weren't wrong,” Said, Theo while shrugging
”Haha, that's quite common in tropical countries. Well Lida are you still scared” Said Clint
Lisa stopped splashing her new friends and shook her head ”Nope, it's fun”
”What about you two” Said Theo
”I'm A-Okay” Said Rose with a bright smile
”It's good,” Said Chloe happily
”Okay now well teach you how to swim” Said Theo before looking his fellow teacher
Lida looked up at her dad (Clint) nervously and said: ”Me too?”
”Yes we will teach you to go real fast,” Said Clint with an exaggerated tone while lifting his daughter up in the air

A few meters away from Theo was his Girlfriends, prospective girlfriend Natasha May, Betty, Laura and Banna aimlessly floating on a floaty.
”So what's everyone thinking,” Said Sonya
”Well, I'm just shocked that S.H.I.E.L.D surveillance has never picked up on this clearly high energy using the island. It amazing the energy usage need to run this place amounts to the same amount as a large country,” Said Banna while sipping on a coconut
”Huh? S.H.E.I.L.D?” Said May in a questioning tone
”It's just a secret international anti-terrorism department like FBI but it focuses on the supernatural like mutants and other abnormalities,” Said Charlotte simply not caring for the secrecy
”Um should you have told me that like, will I be” Said May while making a cut-throat action
”Nah, If they made a move on you then they will have to deal with the big bad wolf,” Said Jennifer while pointing at Theo in the distance
”Is Theo really that amazing like is he a big shot or is he national threat” Said May meekly
”Nope,” Said Natasha
May sighed in relief
”He's a universal threat,” Said Sonya
*Gulp* Was heard from May as she shook for a second before her eyes became steady and said ”Doesn't matter I'm still gonna pester him until he tells me what Peter has been up too”
Sona looked at her fellow women 'I call by the end the day she falls for him'
Natasha replied back while secretly raising 2 fingers '2 days'
'I think she can hold out for 5 days' Thought Jennifer
'I say the same as Jenni' Thought Charlotte
'I'm hopeful and think she won't fall at all' Said Betty hoping for May to be normal
'She is on the edge but not yet it will take at least a day for her to completely fall unless someone gives her a push' Said Laura wisely
While the girls were making bets Bruce looked at the situation and said ”Did I miss something?”
”Nope, so how is your guy's new place,” Asked Sonya towards Betty and Bruce
”It's only been one night but it's nice and quiet,” Said Betty
”Yeah it's really nice, I'm particularly grateful for the lab” Said Bruce
”So have you guys done any science stuff,” Said Jennifer
”We're trying to relax” Said Bruce while showing a smile to Betty
”So you guys are scientists” Asked May
