ULTRA AI

Author: : Elijah Obuezzar
Genre: Sci-fi
ULTRA ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, also known as UAI, is an adaptive technology from an unknown universe called XENDA. XENDA is a life force that exists within and outside the universe, beyond time and space itself. The people of XENDA saw that the multiverse could no longer be secured from powerful threats that endangered the multiverse itself. Pi-minus, the most intelligent being in the entire Maniverse, created a life force that exceeds the cosmos itself, which protects the multiverse from an omega destruction. The omega destruction is the end of every universe that exists within and outside the cosmos. It is the source of life, ideas, inspirations, imaginations, and everything else that exists. Every writer, artist, audience, and creator views their perspectives from this source. If it were destroyed, everything that you know of would cease to exist. In short, it is the LIFE SOURCE of the fabric of existence. There are two types of destruction: the Alpha destruction and the Omega destruction. The Alpha destruction was the first big bang that rewrote reality itself, making changes to every continuity that unbalanced existence. This affected every continuity you know of and every timeline that exists, recreating, destroying, and altering the cosmos itself. It was the yin-yang of reality. Pi-minus foresaw this coming, that the only thing that could produce an omega destruction is when the Alpha destruction is no more. Pi-minus saw the end of each world's destruction right from the 144,000 universes, and the only way he could save all existence was with the XENTORIUM CORE. A XENTORIUM CORE is the creation and birth of each universe. From the highest beings and points to the lowest beings and points, the XENTORIUM CORE holds the key to balancing the cosmos and saving all that exists. Author's note: The XENTORIUM CORE is a powerful source that is incomparable to anything else. Its capabilities are incomprehensible to most top tiers of supreme intelligence within and outside the cosmos. Not many are capable of its unique and limitless potential, which can change the fabric of existence with a mere thought of limitless capacity, be it conscious or unconscious. This book is just for fun and not meant to criticize any other works of authors. References will be made to keep the storyline consistent. This is just a fictional write-up.

Chapter 1 Last Resort

The universe is endless, with unfathomable worlds waiting to be explored beyond its horizon. A fraction of our universe is like a tiny speck of dust within its vastness. Out there, beyond the cosmos, lie multiple worlds, multiple timelines, and an endless loop of time that is infinite. Time is ineffable, yet it is sufficient for all. Creation and time are like two sides of a coin, waiting to be tossed around or flipped aside.

Our story journeys beyond the fabric of reality, to where it all began, for one would say that the measure of a man is what he does with power and that absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I will be your guide and instructor to the vast, unimaginable realities of the Maniverse, which holds the secrets of wonders beyond time and space. I am the instructor, or as you will come to know me, Multiple Man. Join me as we venture beyond, within, and outside the Maniverse.

Somewhere beyond time and space, chaos emerged, and the war between worlds, within and outside the very fabric of existence, began. It was said to be the War of the Maniverse, filled with explosions and battle warships as the enemies approached the heart of Xenda. A race of extraterrestrial beings, known as the Guardians of the Maniverse, held, watched, and protected the balance of existence at their beck and call.

"Pi-minus, we can't survive this. You need to let it go," said one of his comrades. "The Vultrax are heading this way, and you can always make another."

A huge explosion occurred, breaching the security fortress and setting off the alarm systems. Pytronx emerged.

"My creator, this is what I've found in your sight, the power to rewrite history that will bring the universe to its knees; it's right in front of me, the core," said Pytronx.

He headed for the core but was confronted by Pi-minus's assistant, Luthax, who engaged him in an epic battle while Pi-minus perfected his most priceless creation. The Vultrax began shooting at Pi-minus as he ran for safety, still perfecting his masterpiece, while his assistant Luthax still faced off with Pytronx, the leader of the Vultrax army. As more enemies approached towards them, they fired at Pi-minus, trying to stop him from his creation.

"Backup system protocol: 2 minutes to total detonation," said the AI control system voice.

Pi-minus reached for the ejection capsule launcher, where he would put the completed "Auto-Grant" core for safety. He witnessed the death of his assistant Luthax, who was ripped apart by Pytronx. In a moment of desperation, Pi-minus launched and ejected the capsule to an unknown destination. This enraged Pytronx as Pi-minus was surrounded by an army of Vultrax.

Pytronx demanded to know where Pi-minus had sent the core to, but Pi-minus only replied with a single word, "you'll never find it." This only made Pytronx angrier, and he got closer to his maker, vowing to find the core no matter what. He ordered the death of Pi-minus and the entire race, leaving the dimension to its doom. Pytronx and the rest of the Vultrax began to search for the core, scouring through the multiverse.

Meanwhile, in space, the core set its course for Earth. As it entered the Earth's atmosphere, it created a sonic boom that shook the ground. The McCoy family was having a lovely dinner in their backyard when the xentorium core crashed in, causing a powerful shockwave that knocked out the world's power supply without causing any lethal collateral damage.

"What's that noise?" Jenna asked.

"It sounded like an explosion," said Rita. "Damn it! The power is out again."

"I'm gonna pee in the backyard," said Peter.

"Alright, honey, but don't go too far," said Jenna.

"What the f*ck? Nothing seems to be working. All electronic devices are down," said Mason.

"Language, honey. The kids are with us," said Jenna.

Peter saw something glowing as he walked towards the source of the light.

"Peter McCoy," the xentorium core whispered.

He reached out to the small, spherical object.

The ejection capsule launcher opened, leaving Peter astonished. He didn't know what it was as the core spread itself on his hand. He tried detaching it, but it wouldn't come off. The core wrapped itself around Peter like it wanted to bond. The procedure was painless on the outside, but on the inside, it felt like hell. Peter screamed, and Jenna heard him. She asked Mark to check on Peter, but by the time Mark got to Peter, he was already fine. They both headed back to the others.

Five hours later, the world's power came back on. News reports on TV went viral as to what caused the power outage. The hypothesis was that it looked like an asteroid or falling star that had shattered across the globe. No one knew what it was or how many there were.

The news report interrupted their family discussion: "We're sorry to interrupt, but this breaking news just came in five hours after the power outage. A meteorite made its way to earth, where it landed in Vill-city and probably the entire globe. We do not know what the object looks like, as some said it was a falling star. Our scientists are on the move to find out what could have caused the tremendous amount of outage. Stay tuned for more reports. CBNVI news out."

"Well, that's a relief," said Mason. Mark asked Peter if he was okay, and they both went inside.

"Alright, you know the drill, no staying up late," said Jenna.

"Uhn!" The McCoy children all replied.

"C'mon, Dad, can't we stay up a little while?" said Sophie.

"Nah, you all need to prepare for school, sweetie," replied Mason.

"Alright, everyone to your rooms," said Jenna, while kissing Mason.

"Ugh! C'mon, Mom!" said Mark in a gross way. "At least do that when we're all asleep. Yak!"

"Alright, sweeties, up you go," said Jenna. "Early to bed, early to rise."

The kids all went to their rooms. Sophie and Rita shared a room, while Mark and Peter shared another room.

Meanwhile, at Lyrecius Corp, the organization conducted an investigation into the cause of the global power outage. One of their researchers suggested a hypothesis that it might be of alien origin attempting to make contact. The CEO of the organization went to Mr. Lyrecius to demand answers and results regarding the situation.

"I don't care about your hypothesis, Doctor," said Mr. Lyrecius.

"I'm a scientist," replied Dr. Henry Monroe. "Well, of course, I'm also a doctor as well," said Dr. Henry Monroe jokingly.

"I don't care about your degree, Doc. I'm paying you for results, not hypotheses," said Mr. Lyrecius. "As the head of the research team, you're supposed to provide me with facts and evidence, not theses or hypotheses. Is that clear?"

"Yes, sir," replied Dr. Henry Monroe, who was trying to explain some vital information to the CEO, who was only concerned about the present situation at hand.

Meanwhile, in Peter's room, he struggled in his sleep, having some kind of nightmare or a vision. His entire body organs began to evolve, his brainwaves were developing faster. Inside his brain was like a speeding electron and proton in the form of blue sparkling light that resembled an electrical charge, releasing every piece of the xentorium core into his bloodstream and brainwaves. His entire body was going through the transformation stage of recalibration, and he sweated a lot in his sleep. The xentorium core was at work, and in an instant, his eyes exploded wide open as his iris turned completely mechanized like an artificially intelligent type with blue energy aura around him, which was only visible to him. It was internal and external.

The next day, the kids prepared for school, and Mason drove them. They were excited, but Peter seemed a bit tired. They drove for thirty minutes before they arrived at their destination, Vill-city Junior High School.

"Be careful, kids. Have fun in school," said Mason as the kids departed.

Rita: "So we'll all meet back here after school. Stay out of harm's way."

Mark: "Sure!"

Meanwhile in Physics class, Peter began to undergo some final changes. He could see through people and even read their thoughts. The core had fully evolved. As lecture was going on in class about parallel worlds and the early universe, Peter heard a buzzing sound inside him, as if something wanted to communicate. Then, he heard a voice inside him.

"Hello, Peter McCoy! I'm Xentorium, your personal guide," said the voice.

Peter was in shock, but luckily no one was paying attention to him as he excused himself from class. He headed straight to the boy's restroom where he talked with the artificial intelligence.

"Who are you?" asked Peter.

"I am Xentorium Core, a highly evolved mechanism created from the very source of existence itself and far beyond any other," replied the voice.

"This can't be real!" exclaimed Peter, slapping himself close to the mirror.

"Why would you do that to yourself, Peter McCoy?" asked Xentorium Core.

Peter then recalled what he had experienced the previous night.

"That thing I saw... Yes. It has to be," said Peter to himself. "But how?"

"Affirmative, Peter McCoy," said Xentorium Core. "It was I who bonded with you, and from the look of things, our calibration is complete."

"What calibration?" asked Peter.

"DNA changes and adaptation," replied Xentorium Core. "There's a lot you need to learn before we get started on the main course."

Peter argued with the Xentorium Core, and some group of boys entered the restroom and caught Peter talking to himself. Peter whispered to the Xentorium Core, which informed him that he was the only one who could communicate and hear the voice of the Xentorium Core.

Most of the boys ignored Peter's strange behavior in the restroom, but Tyson and Jerry and his gang entered and began to bully some guys their age. They threatened and took their cash, and cornered some boys to the restroom wall where they beat them and took their belongings. While all of this was happening, not far from Peter, who was trying to understand the Xentorium Core inside him, made Tyson and his gang think that he was referring to them.

Peter put his hands on the sink and continued communicating with the Xentorium core.

"What? Are you for real?" asked Peter McCoy in disbelief.

"Excuse me, McCoy!" replied Tyson, who turned to face Peter, but Peter wasn't even looking at him. "If you've got something to say, say it to my face like a man."

"Oh oooh!!" the gang awed.

Tyson walked towards Peter for a confrontation, without Peter's awareness, as he was deeply engrossed in his conversation with the Xentorium core. Tyson raised his fist to punch Peter, but Peter caught his hand quickly, which was shocking to everyone.

"Wow!" exclaimed Jerry. "That was some quick reaction there."

Tyson was amazed by Peter's display and backed off, leaving him with a warning threat, while the victim managed to escape amidst the distraction.

"This isn't over, Peter McCoy," said Tyson, walking away with his gang.

Chapter 2 You And I

The next day, Peter was in his room trying to figure out what the core was, and he started a discussion with the xentorium core.

Peter: Hello! Are you there?

Xentorium Core: Yes, Peter. What can I do for you today?

Peter: Holy fucking shit. You are real, and you're inside me.

Xentorium Core: You seem surprised, Peter. I thought we had gone past this level.

Peter: Are you some kind of operating system, like Jarvis from Iron Man?

Xentorium Core: I love your sense of humor, but I am far superior to any known technological advancement and beyond.

As Peter and the xentorium core continued their conversation, Sophie walked in and was surprised to see Peter apparently talking to himself.

Sophie: Who are you talking to, Peter?

Peter:

Xentorium Core: Tell her you're memorizing your periodic table.

Sophie: Peter...

Peter: I'm just memorizing my periodic table, Sophie.

Sophie: Oh, okay. I see. Anyways, your food is ready.

Peter: Thanks. I'll be down soon.

Xentorium Core: Peter, you and I need some privacy to discuss important things at hand.

Peter replied, "Okay," and hurriedly went downstairs for dinner with his family. During dinner, the Lyrecius Corporation Agency (LCA) arrived to investigate the power outage that occurred three days ago, which seemed to have originated from the McCoys' home.

Mason answered the door and let the LCA in, and they were able to locate a high frequency and power source emitting from the McCoys' backyard. One of the officials found a piece of the core's fragment and put it in a suitcase as they continued their investigation. The McCoys were moved to a hotel apartment for the time being, and there Peter and the xentorium core continued their discussion.

The xentorium core explained to Peter about the impending threat and warned him that if it ever fell into the wrong hands, all hope would be lost. It also instructed Peter to retrieve the fragment of the xentorium core, as its power was too dangerous in the wrong hands.

"We need to practice, Peter. You need to know the basic steps on how I work," said the xentorium core. "I can't just give you access to all of my knowledge and capabilities. You have to prove your worth to me."

"How do we begin? Where do we start from?" Peter asked. "I can't keep this from my family. What if they find out?"

"Believe me, Peter McCoy, I can keep this secret all day, but we'll need to establish trust and commitment between us. If you're ready, just say the word. But time isn't on our side anymore. Danger is approaching once more on this planet, and the fate of the world, the whole universe, rests on your shoulders."

They went to an abandoned location far away from the hotel, where Peter and the xentorium core began their training. Meanwhile, at the McCoys' apartment, the L.C.A. agents had completed their investigation and headed back to their headquarters, informing the McCoys that they could return home. The report was given to Mr. Lyrecius, and they quickly began running tests on the fragment of the core.

During their training sessions, the xentorium core started with flight, teaching Peter how to fly without transformation. The lessons were a bit messy, as it was Peter's first time learning.

After returning to their apartment, Peter would sneak out to continue his training, as instructed by the xentorium core.

Lesson 1: Flight

Xentorium core: When flying, Peter, you don't have to control the wind flow. You flow with it like a compass directing you to your destination.

Peter: Okay, lift off!

He said with excitement while training with the xentorium core.

Xentorium core: Remember Peter, the key is balancing.

After many failed attempts at flight, Peter successfully achieved lift off. The xentorium core is able to make Peter fly at incredible speeds, even going beyond FTL (faster than light). Their training was done both physically and mentally; the xentorium core was able to project or transform an entire location for their training and was also capable of mental awareness of the user, providing them with vital information.

At some point during their training, it became a simulation in Peter's mind, creating another entire simulation of the universe and multiverse if needed.

Peter tested his flight by flying far above the clouds where he couldn't be seen by humans. He flew across streets, towns, and large buildings so fast that not even cameras could capture his movements. His flight was also put to the test when he saved a man attempting suicide, catching him before the police and firefighters could.

Lesson 2: Strength, Durability, Stamina & Endurance

In this lesson, the xentorium core created a holographic reflection of itself that could attack and perform other advanced maneuvers.

This part of the training session tested Peter's human physique and improved any imperfections. Since the xentorium core carried Peter's DNA, it enhanced his superhuman strength, durability, infinite speed beyond FTL, stamina, endurance, accelerated regenerative healing, adaptability, immunity, invulnerability, and many more. Peter was able to lift ten tons in his human form from the xentorium core projection and then lift two hundred quintillion tons with one hand behind his back. This was incredibly amazing to Peter, seeing how strong he was due to the fusion of advanced technology mixed with his genome. He was also able to lift an entire holographic galaxy with both hands, which was a hundred times greater than Earth's realistic universe according to the xentorium core, and he lifted it effortlessly.

Lesson 3: Enhanced Senses

This part of the lesson explains the incredible intelligence of the Xentorium Core. According to its creator, the Xentorium Core is nigh-omniscient in all things, if not fully omniscient. When combined with Peter's memory, they become one, but that's just an added benefit. The AI core is exceptionally intelligent, even without the combination of memories, and it only combines memories with the user to make them aware of its presence and to gain knowledge.

The Xentorium Core grants Peter psionics, allowing him to glance through the entire multiverse like a vision from the Xentorium Core in just nanoseconds. He can see the past, present, and future, but he chooses to ignore it as he sees it as too dangerous, even for him to know his own future.

The Xentorium Core also grants Peter enhanced senses like super hearing, super vision, x-ray vision, microscopic and submicroscopic vision. He recognized them from a famous superhero TV show called Superman.

"I have heat vision like Superman, don't I?" asked Peter when he shot lasers from his eyes.

"Something like that, I presume," replied the Xentorium Core.

"Awesome!" Peter said. The AI also told him he is capable of understanding, speaking, and interpreting all languages with ease. Peter was amazed as he tried speaking at least a hundred languages in just thirty seconds. Both he and the AI core spoke in various languages during their training.

Lesson 4: Invisibility/Cloning/Intangibility/Energy blast

The Xentorium core possesses an unlimited amount of energy, and its capabilities are unknown.

Peter exclaimed, "Woah woah woah! Are you saying I've been skipping school this entire time?"

The Xentorium core replied, "Relax, Peter! I took care of everything before we even began. You've learned how enhanced senses work, and combined with cloning, you know all things. They can't differentiate the original from the clone because you're all the original."

Peter asked, "So it's like a holographic clone that can be touched?"

The Xentorium core answered, "If you put it that way for your understanding, then yes! Yes, it is, Peter McCoy."

Meanwhile, at the Lyrecius Corporation, their scientists have been able to figure out some secrets behind the Fragment Core. One of the scientists tells Mr. Lyrecius that the core has an unimaginable amount of energy that could power the entire world for eternity. Imagine this Fragment Core having this remarkable energy - what then will it be if it were the power core itself?

Lyrecius thinks to himself, "Remarkable. This fragment holds immense power that could change the fabric of reality itself. It is unique and extremely remarkable indeed. Wherever the power core is, I'll find it and make the world a better place."

On the other hand, the Xentorium core taught Peter how to become intangible and invisible at the same time. It also taught Peter how to make clones of himself whenever the need arises. As for the energy blast, he was able to harness it with the help of the Xentorium core, projecting a powerful blast from his hands into the atmosphere, causing the weather to rain. And then, they moved on to lesson five.

Lesson 5: Computer interface/ New armor nano regeneration / Infinite Speed and time travel / teleportation and portal creation

In this tutorial, the Xentorium Core linked itself to Peter's brain cells, effectively turning him into a human cyborg. Peter could feel the presence of every artificial intelligence on the planet, granting him superior AI capabilities. He was able to scan through the entire city with just a glance and hack into any advanced technology in the world. He could even see the world in binary numbers. The Xentorium Core was the most advanced technology in the Maniverse, which comprised the multiverse and the universe.

Peter wanted to create an armor to protect his identity, and the Xentorium Core instructed him to find any metal available. Without the armor, Peter was already incredibly strong, but he needed a suit that could handle the Xentorium Core's limitless potential. He went to a construction site and found titanium alloy steel, which the Xentorium Core detected had nanite mixed in. Peter absorbed some of the nanites into himself and the Xentorium Core created a suit of armor for him. However, the Xentorium Core did not immediately grant him access to it.

Next, Peter was taught about speed and time travel. The Xentorium Core explained that traveling faster than light could lead to time loops and alter reality. However, the Xentorium Core could grant Peter infinite speed, allowing him to traverse between worlds and universes instantly. It also taught Peter how to teleport and create portals anywhere in the universe and multiverse. However, Peter had to prove himself worthy of such powers before the Xentorium Core would grant him access.

Chapter 3 It's about time

Four speeding cars passed by quickly, shooting at the police cars chasing after them. Peter stood in a high tower, watching the view, when his AI core alerted him.

"It's time for some action, Peter. Let's give you a basic Level One suit," said the Xentorium core.

Peter paled. "Seriously?"

"Indeed, Peter. It is necessary for basic levels of transformation. When the time comes, I'll explain."

Peter quickly transformed into the basic Level One suit of armor. It was pretty cool and comfortable in there. As he took off and scanned through the criminals' vehicles, they noticed him and started shooting at the suit of armor. But it was impenetrable. It absorbed the kinetic energy of the bullets and infused the bullets into the armor itself. Peter activated a car-disabling device, which stopped the robbers without casualties.

The officers were amazed to see a new hero in town. "It must be a test subject from the Lyrecius Corp.," said one of the officers, as Peter took off into the sky. "They never cease to amaze the city with their inventions."

Peter continued to transform to stop a couple of fire outbreaks, criminals, suicide bombers, and many more. His actions were known publicly to the people of Vill City via the media. Some began to wonder where it came from, as no one knew of its origin.

Meanwhile, in the Lyrecius Corporation, Mr. Pytronx saw the news report about the suited armored hero and looked surprised. "This must be the Fragment Core itself," said Mr. Lyrecius, who spotted a technological symbol on its chest.

The next day at school, Peter could hear people talking and whispering about the new super suit. Some confused it with Iron Man, others thought of it as Transformers or Voltron, or maybe even Cyborg. He smiled and walked past them as Rita approached him. They greeted and chatted for a while before heading to class.

Peter had been doing things secretly without anyone noticing his absence. Thanks to the Xentorium core, life and school were pretty easy for him. As the school day ended, the kids all went home with Peter's clone, while the real Peter went out for his vigilante duties, keeping the city safe from harm. After his routine was over, he retired home, switching places with his clone to reunite with himself.

Meanwhile, late at night at home, Jenna and Mason headed out, leaving the kids at home. Rita had ordered handy stuff to work on, Sophie was watching TV, and Mark was in his room studying. Peter was hesitant to inform Mark about the core as he would also need approval from the Xentorium core who could read his thoughts and disapprove of it.

"Wanna go for a flight?" said the Xentorium core.

Peter: "Where would you want us to go?"

Xentorium core: "In space. I wanna show you something."

Peter suited up, leaving a decoy of himself at home, and took off into space. He could see the world from afar. "It's beautiful," said Peter.

Xentorium core: "Do you trust me, Peter McCoy?"

Peter: "As if I have a choice," Peter replied with a chuckle.

The Xentorium core unsuited Peter, and he couldn't believe that he could breathe in space without suiting up. It felt amazing. Just then, Peter asked the core what they should be called.

Peter: "I would love to give you a name aside from Xentorium core or AI core."

Xentorium core: "Wow. I'll love that, Peter McCoy. So what name did you have in mind?"

Peter: "Since you probably know it all in a way and you're an artificial intelligence with the power of creation. I was hoping we go for something beyond, something like 'ULTRA A.I.'"

Xentorium core: "ULTRA A.I. Impressive. I like that."

Peter: "Yeah."

Ultra AI: "And how would you like to be addressed, Peter McCoy?"

Peter: "Whatever suits you to call me."

Ultra AI: "Then Peter McCoy it is," it said as they both chuckled. Ultra AI displayed an emoji chuckle for Peter to see its reaction.

While in space, an asteroid was heading towards Earth, with the size of two countries. Ultra A.I. suited Peter and turned around to see the asteroid heading towards Earth. "This should be easy," said Ultra A.I. As Peter McCoy shot shrinking blast rays at it, the asteroid shrank without effort.

Peter: "Wow. Impressive. I didn't know you could do that."

Ultra AI: "There are so many things I am capable of, Peter McCoy. In time, you'll find me the most impressive and irreplaceable of all time."

Back on Earth, Peter's decoy blended in well at Lyrecius Corporation. Their scientists were able to create an energy beam from the fragment core that would come in handy in the future. While still in progress as they worked to determine its full potential, they continued their research on the fragment core.

Later, Peter and Ultra AI explored the galaxy, sometimes suiting up and sometimes not. They flew into the sunset, picking up particles from the sun while taking selfies. They also visited the moon, where they saw the footprints of the American astronaut and the American flag. Their time together was awesome, and things that Peter could imagine in his head came true, both the impossible and the possible, with the help of Ultra AI.

Peter: "I wish I could tell my foster parents about this. I wish I could save my parents. How I wish I could turn back the hands of time."

Ultra AI: "I'm sorry for your loss, Peter, but the laws of the universe must be abided by. Someday, you might be able to gain access to my time travel capabilities when everything is complete, but for now, there are bigger fish to fry than just your wishes. I don't mean to be rude, Peter McCoy, but I'm sure you'll understand. But come to think of it, what if I gave you access to time travel? What would you do with it, aside from your personal reasons and of course saving your family?"

Peter: "I would do good, save my parents, have a good life, possibly make the world a better place, and get rid of cancer."

Ultra AI: "Aren't you afraid that it might alter the fabric of existence, possibly creating a loop or vanquishing all of reality?"

Peter: "A wise man once told me, 'Do good, and good will always follow.' Because there's never enough good that can overshadow the bad."

After a while of discussion, they headed back to Earth, saving the day on their way home. The next morning, Peter and his foster siblings prepared for school, with their usual routines, but something was different. Peter could feel it in his bones and marrow. It was about Debbie Rich, the girl of his dreams and secret admirer. While at lunch, Peter sat with Mark, who noticed the way Peter was staring at Debbie from a distance. She was a beautiful girl with the prettiest smile in all of Vill-City Junior High School.

After some discussion, they headed back to Earth, successfully saving the day on their way home. The next morning, Peter and his foster siblings prepared for school as usual, but Peter couldn't shake the feeling that something was different. He realized it was because of Debbie Rich, the girl he secretly admired. During the launch, Peter sat next to Mark, who noticed him staring at Debbie from a distance. Mark encouraged Peter to be self-confident and approach Debbie, but Peter was too distracted by her smile.

Suddenly, Peter felt a weird tingling in his spine, and Ultra AI sent a message through him, alerting him of incoming danger. A missile was headed towards their school, but Peter was in the cafeteria, which was actually a decoy. The original school building absorbed the missile into Ultra AI, which caused it to jump-start and take off like a booster being fired up by a motor engine. The students cheered as their school was saved from the explosion.

After merging with his decoy through invisibility and intangibility, Peter returned to his original place in the cafeteria, and no one noticed a thing. The students were all talking about how they were saved, and Peter let out a sigh of relief, "Phew! That was close."

Later on, during basketball practice, the gym teacher selected the girls for the cheerleading contest and assigned duties to the remaining students. While the girls practiced their routine, the guys were working on their physique and reflexes. Peter and Mark were on the same team with a group of other students. As they played, the bullies, Tyson, Jerry, and their gang, began playing unfairly, knocking out almost every team on the court except for Peter, Mark, and their team.

"Hey, it's the losers' team, Tyson," Jerry sneered, and the rest of his team laughed mockingly. Peter smirked in response.

"Oh yeah! McCoy. What're you smiling at?" Tyson asked, looking at Peter.

"You'll know soon enough," replied Peter with a confident grin.

"I hope you know what you're doing," Mark whispered to Peter.

"Don't worry, I've got this," Peter assured Mark.

Using his scanning ability, Peter was able to predict their opponents' tactics accurately. He led his team to a victory in a knock-out game against Tyson's team, leaving everyone, including their coach, amazed.

The teams lined up defensively in a circle when Tyson and his team threw balls at them. Each member of Peter's team caught each ball with ease. "How'd they do that?" asked Jerry in amazement. Tyson was shocked by their formation and accuracy. Suddenly, Peter gave the order, and they knocked every member of Tyson's team off the court, leaving only Tyson and Jerry against Peter and Mark.

Peter instructed his teammates to retire, leaving only him and Mark to face Tyson and Jerry. Tyson still boasted about being the best. "Two losers left," he said. "You were a fool to let go off your teammates."

"They did it on purpose, Tyson," Jerry chimed in.

"Don't tell me what I know, Jerry!" Tyson snapped back.

Peter and Mark were prepared to face Tyson and Jerry. They threw all the balls they had, but failed to get Peter and Mark off the court. They eventually ran out of balls, and Peter and Mark were left with one ball each to play against Tyson and Jerry.

Peter, Tyson, Jerry, and Mark were playing basketball during gym practice. Peter convinced Mark to join him in a trick shot that involved throwing their balls at the net in a way that would make them bounce off each other and go into the basket. As they attempted the shot, the balls hit them in the face, knocking them both unconscious. When they woke up, they were cheered on by the crowd.

Later, Peter and Debbie exchanged romantic glances as they changed in their separate locker rooms. Rita noticed their interaction and had a friendly conversation with Debbie about everything. Meanwhile, in the boys' locker room, Tyson and Jerry confronted Peter and Mark, seeking revenge for the basketball incident. Tyson threatened Peter and warned him that he and his friend would get what was coming to them. Jerry stood by Tyson's side, insisting that they were "bros for life."

Despite the conflict, the group eventually went their separate ways, and the incident was left unresolved.
