Chase pov

While everyone else was down stairs training I decided to head upstairs. I was trying to think of why bree might be mad at me. I was going to go up to the secret room when my path was redirected at the sound of the doorbell. I opened the door to be greeted by a familiar face.

"Jason?" I asked confused

"chase!" Jason exclaimed with wide eyes.

" your alive." He exhaled staring at me. I gestured for him to come in. He stood in the living room eyeing me as if he was looking at a ghost.

"Chase...I just can't believe you're alive." Jason was one of the soldier working with me in the control room. We became really close after being on lockdown for the first couple of weeks.

"Jason what are you doing here?" I questioned confused as to why he would have stopped by my home. I watched him as he took a seat on the couch.
" that'll save me the bad news" I heard him whisper under his breath.

" chase just looking at you brings back even the faintest memory i have of what happened.....I remember seeing you screaming and yelling out at me while running towards me...A second later there was a blast, sending me across the room. Then this blue......sphere appeard in front of me."Jason paused to catch his breath thinking back on it. It's not an easy thing to walk away from. I would know. That explosion took several lives and injured many.

"When I woke up in the hospital I was told that due to my location, I should have died in that explosion. While I was recovering it kept replaying in my head what had happened, but there were to many missing pieces. I went looking for you hoping that you would have an answer. Because you always seemed to have an answer for everything." He let out a small smile at the thought of our conversation. His smile quickly faded as he continued.

" I was told that your body was never found. Everyone thought that you were dead. But because it was never confirmed they couldn't send the news to your family. Chase what happened to y... "

"why are you here" i question solftly interrupting him. I wasnt trying to be rude but i had to change the topic. I didn't want to think back on what had really happened. The reason I wasn't in the hospital like the rest of the survivors. Jason's eyebrows burrowed down at my change in topic.

"Anyway I came hear because I found this amongst the rubble. I went back to look for you because I thought that your family deserved to know what happened. It's the picture you were always looking at." I grabbed the image from his hand and examined it. It was a picture of my family. The Dooley, davenport family. The first time we went to the beach.

"When I looked at it more closely, I began to recognize the girl in it. Chase when the explosion hit, I saw her before I blacked out." Jason whispered. I looked at him confused by the situation. As I was trying to figure this out Adam and bree came into the room.

"what was I supposed to do let the puppy run away." Adam questioned following bree into the kitchen.

"Adam it was a simulator you couldn't of kept the puppy anyway. You made us fail the mission" Bree responded annoyed.

"Com'on bree he was cute." Adam defended. Jason stood up at the mention of bree's name.

"Bree. Bree Henderson." Jason spoke up. Bree snapped her head in are direction at the sound of a different voice.

Bree pov

"Bree. Bree henderson?" An unfamiliar voice called out. I spun around confused as to who was calling my name. I looked over at chase and felt my my heart drop slightly as I remembered. He should have told me.
I lifted my head as I spotted someone else in the corner of my eye. There was a man that looked to be in his early 20's standing by the sofa in our living room. As i looked at him, it felt like my mind was searching for lost files. Like my head was telling me I had seen him before. Yet I had no idea who he was.

"Um yes." I answered confused as to how he knew that last name. My simple response seemed to send him speechless. He looked shocked, like he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Wow I....I Um. Wow is it really you." he fumbled. I took a step back confused by what was happening.

"Ah.. may I ask.... who are you?."
