Chapter 12.
Chase's POV.
I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. I had no idea where I was. The last thing I remember was falling asleep on Adam's lap while Bree and Mr. Davenport were digging the tunnel. "Did we escape?" I wondered as I turned on my left. I realized that there was a bunch of machinery. Where was I? I looked over and saw a few empty chairs. Where was everyone? Then I heard a toilet flush. I noticed Mr. Davenport walking out of the bathroom. When he realized that I was awake, he immediately ran over to me.
"Chase. Your awake." He sighed in relief.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"At my research facility in Oahu Hawaii." Mr. Davenport said.
"Why am I here? Why are we here? Where is everyone else?" I asked.
"Chase. Calm down. The doctor knows about your bionics. Also we're hiding from Krane. They are all in my house where I stay in when I come here." Mr. Davenport explained as he started swiping my sweaty hair out of my eyes.
"Oh. Are they all safe?" I asked.
"Yeah. How do you feel?" Mr. Davenport inquired.
"A little bit better." I said.
"Good. Your fever has gone down a lot. It was 104.1 when we got here. It's at 102.3 now." Mr. Davenport exclaimed.
"So my fever was at a deadly temperature when I got here."
"Yeah. The doctor said that you were lucky to be alive." My uncle admitted.
I yawned, I was still tired, even I was just asleep.
"Hey, I should probably get the doctor while you are still awake. Just, don't go back to sleep." Mr. Davenport explained as he left the room.
I was trying to fight the the urge to sleep when I heard my stomach growl. I was starving. I started falling asleep when I saw the door opening and Mr. Davenport entered the room alongside with the doctor
"Hello Chase." The man said.
"Hi." I greeted.
The first thing he did was to stick a small metal device on the back of my neck where my chip was. After a few seconds, it beeped. He put up the device and started checking me out. "Well, I have good news. If you keep recovering at this pace, you should be out of here in a few days." The doctor explained.
"That's a relief." I said.
"Although, I do have one concern. You guys were captured by someone. Did he mess with Chase or anything?" The doctor asked.
"No. The only thing he did was tie me to a chair." I said.
"Yes, but I suppose that you were semi asleep or fully asleep most of the time. Mr. Davenport, did you see anything or hear anything that he may have done to your son?" He asked.
"If I had, then I would have told you as soon as we got here, but no." Mr. Davenport said.
"Alright, well, I have to go, apparently a kid got hurt during a surfing lesson on the beach." The doctor said as he left the room.
"Wait, there are kids here?" I asked.
"Not many, but the kids are my staff's kids. There are two around your age. Cameron and Miranda. Cameron is close to Adam and Bree, right in the middle I think, and Miranda is closer to you and Leo." Mr. Davenport explained.
I yawned again and then my stomach growled loudly.
"Wow Chase. Are you hungry?" Mr. Davenport asked rhetorically as he was laughing a bit.
"I'm starving." I started laughing as well.
"I'll ask the room service what you can eat. I'll be right back." Mr. Davenport said and left the room.
I looked out the window and wondered if my siblings were having fun.
Bree's POV.
"Alright, lay on your stomach, then when the wave goes under you, put your feet under you, and push yourself up." Cameron explained.
I was probably grinning like a idiot. I was on the beach where Cameron was teaching us and maybe six other people. Three kids, two adults and a teenage girl who looked around Chase's and Leo's age.
"Now, who wants to demonstrate what I just taught you?" Cameron asked.
The teenage girl raised her hand and so did one of the little boys.
"Miranda." Cameron said, referring to the teenager.
She went over to him and did it flawlessly.
"Nice! Anyone else?" Cameron asked.
I raised my hand.
"Bree." Cameron smiled.
I walked over and laid on my stomach on my surfboard.
"Alright, put your feet under you." Cameron said.
I did as he said. This was harder then it looked.
"And push yourself up." Cameron said.
I did, but then I fell.
"Are you ok?" Cameron asked as he gently helped me up.
I nodded.
"Look, a lot of people get this wrong the first time. Besides, people are supposed to ride on there stomachs the first time around, just to get the hang of it. Alright? I'm just teaching this because you can ride on your feet the second time around." Cameron asked.
"That makes sense." I said.
"Alright, who wants to try this in the water?" Cameron asked.
Everyone grabbed their boards and headed towards the water. My board was pretty. It was purple and pink, with a black flower at the top. It matched my purple, pink and black tankni very well. Anyway, I was in the water, waiting for a big wave. When I finally got one, it felt amazing. I don't know why I hadn't gotten into this sooner, it felt nice. Really nice. When I got to shore, Cameron told me that he wanted us to go out together in case I wiped out. We swam kinda far from shore until a wave came. When it did, I pushed myself upstanding up when I wiped out. I swam back to the surface. When I did, I was met with Cameron's worried face.
"Bree! Are you alright?!" He asked.
"I'm fine. I'm okay. That was fun! Not wiping out, but surfing." I smiled.
"It is amazing, let's get you to shore." Cameron said as he held his hand out.
I climbed on his board and he paddled to shore with his hands. When we got on shore, he picked up a small purple flower and put it in my hair.
"Thanks." I smiled and probably blushed.
"Bree, do you wanna go out with me?" Cameron asked.
"Sure." I smiled, even though I was really thinking. 'Yes! He likes me!'
"Friday night, I'll pick you up at seven?" He asked.
"That works. So do you have a idea of what we are doing?" I asked.
"Just come as your normal, pretty self." Cameron said.
I squealed inside my head, Cameron likes me!
