After a few more hours of gaming, KO and Fink joined the rest of the Voxmore family for dinner. Mostly it was them, Venomous, and Boxman, the robots don't really need to eat, but wanted to be included for family time. Fink learned that though he may be a sickeningly sweet boy, he can go a tad crazy with video games. He nearly lost it when he went up against this insanely bad boss fight in Ultra Mario Universe, she didn't think he knew such vulgar words. It was actually kind of strange.

After dinner, Venomous took his son and minion to the lab to assist him in an experiment. KO agreed as long as it wasn't evil, but thankfully not all of his creations are for mass destruction. "Alright what I have here should be able to give humans the ability to produce their own oxygen, allowing them to breath underwater or in space without tanks." he said as he held a vial of crystal blue liquid.

"Is it safe?" KO asked.

"I don't know, that's why I'm having you test it." Venomous replied handing the vial of chemicals to KO.

"Why me? Doesn't Fink usually your test rat for this kind of stuff?" KO pointed to his sort-of acquaintance.

Fink huffed at this, "Way to paint my entire species in one broad stroke."

Venomous just told KO, "Well yeah, but this is father-son weekend and I want to get in as much bonding as I can. Besides you're always testing stuff for your little kappa friend... Dixie?"

"Dendy." KO corrected, but its true Dendy had done more experiments on him than his father on Fink from what he's seen of their relationship. He would make the argument that Dendy wasn't evil, but he can't say that those experiments didn't leave him a number of scars. He then sighed before taking the vial, "This isn't poisonous right?"

"Come KO, do I look like someone who poison his own son?" he tried to sound reassuring, but given their history before the revelation it didn't really help.

After a few seconds of debating, he took a big swig of the elixir. Fink was surprised he actually went through with it, "Well I don't feel any different."

"Let's just see how it works." Venomous pressed a button on the wall, which moved all the furniture so the floor can reveal a large pool.

"When did Boxmore get a pool?" KO questioned.

"Don't think about too much." Venomous told him, he then pulled out of his pocket and handed him something "Take this waterproof ear piece, once you reach the bottom then give a signal."

KO took the earpiece, placing it on his ear before preparing to test. "Alright, here goes nothing." he removed his plaza vest before pulling off his undershirt, Fink turned away when she saw his exposed torso. The image of his small muscled arms and chest made her cheeks a shade of rose, she thought he had six pack on his abs. Could a 6-11 year old have abs like that?

KO splashed into the pool, Venomous pulling out an umbrella to avoid the splash, Fink not so lucky. KO swam to the bottom of the pool, holding his breath in as he descends. When he reached the bottom, he took a breath. And to his surprise, he can breath just fine underwater. "Hey, the potion worked!"

"KO? Status report." Venomous called on the ear piece in KO's ear.

"Venomous, your potion worked!" KO cheered.

"It's not a potion KO, its a mixture of highly concentrated chemicals that-"

"Yeah, yeah. Come on in, the water's fine!" KO interrupted when he popped out of the water.

"KO, this is for work. Not for-" Venomous found the vial not in his hands, but being downed by Fink.

"Good thing I wore my swimsuit underneath my dress." she said as she ripped off her lab coat style dress to reveal a blue one piece swim suit. "CANNONBALL!" Venomous held up the umbrella again to block the splash. He then closed the umbrella to take a look at the results, both KO and Fink were having a sparring session underneath the water.

Venomous was then handed a clipboard by a drone, which he took to write down his notes "Human testing, success. Also works for rats." he continued to observe the effects of the chemical concoction while keeping an eye on the kids.

Beneath the surface of the water, Fink had KO in a headlock. He manages to push her off, he then ducks a clothesline attempt before wrapping his arms from behind and launching her with a German suplex. She then lands her feet on the pool floor, despite being underwater their speed did not hinder at all from the water pressure. They're fighting as fluid as they did on dry land when Fink called KO a momma's boy.

Venomous made a note of this, "Hmmm, reduces effects of water pressure by 90%."

About ten minutes of underwater fighting and note taking, Fink had KO in an Octopus Lock when KO started gasping. He clutched his throat, Fink saw this and smirked "Oh what's the matter, can't handle th- (GASP)" she then started gasping, she released the hold to clutch her throat. She quickly swam to the surface, KO followed suit.

Venomous saw the two kids pop out of the water, each spitting out a spool of pool water before taking in some much need air. The two grabbed on the side of the pool and climbed out, taking big breaths of air. "I (GASP) had you." Fink found the strength say.

"I would have (pant, pant) escaped." KO panted.

"I guess we'll never know, will we?"

"No, we won't."

Venomous wrote down, "Effects are temporary, time: 10 minutes 32 seconds." he then went over to the kids, handing each of them a towel brought by a drone "I think that's enough for today. The experiment was a success, now I just need to find out how to extend the time limit of my concoctions."

"Alright, but can that wait till tomorrow? I need to get started on my homework." KO asked as he dried himself, Fink vigorously running the towel all over her.

"Sure KO." Venomous nodded, "I'll figure that out by tomorrow and we can try again then, by the way KO can I have you do something?"

KO perked up at this, "Sure Venomous, what is it?"

"I was wondering if you can... tutor Fink for me." the rat's eyes bulged out from under the towel when she heard that.

"Tutor her?" KO raised an eyebrow, "I didn't think she had school."

"Well she's homeschooled, not since she got kicked out of kindergarten for excessive biting, breaking things, and something involving a particle decelerator and a toilet." Venomous explained, his minion letting out a chuckle at the last one. That was a good day. "But lately she's been slacking on her assignments, and its effecting her grades."

"I DON'T NEED A TUTOR!" Fink screamed.

"I don't know." KO looked down.

"Come on KO, from what I've read from hour school records you're the second smartest kid there behind Dilly." Venomous said.

"Dendy."

"Dendy, right. Gotta remember that." Venomous said, already forgetting the name of KO's kappa friend.

KO hummed in thought for a second, tutoring Fink would mean more time with her. Plus helping people is what he does best, even if they're evil. "Alright, I'll tutor her."

"Huh?" Fink wondered, she didn't think he'd actually go for it.

Venomous smiled, "Thanks KO. Fink, show KO to the bathroom so you two can wash the chlorine off. I'll have the assignments you need to finish on your bed." he leaves the two alone.

KO then turned to see Fink's glaring red eyes, he smiled nervously under her stare. He had a feeling Fink won't be an easy student.
