Bree's POV

I went into the lab and looked at Chase, his back towards me sitting on the chair. I slowly approached him, cautious of what was going to happen.

I neared him and tapped his shoulder. He slowly turned around and looked at me, smiling. I raised an eyebrow, then he stood up and pulled me into his chest. He hugged me tight, I was confused.

He then pushed me away slightly and kissed me. I was even more confused, but I was happy at the same time, I kissed back.

Chase's POV

I continued to kiss Bree, regardless, of what was going to happen. Then, I pulled away and looked at her.

It was apparent that she was confused. I smiled and put my nose to hers.

"You... you remember?" Bree said, a slight crack in her voice.

"Yes... Yes, I do remember" I answered, gripping her hands.

I stared into her eyes, as she stared back. I pecked her and saw a small smile form on her face. I pulled back and looked around, seeing that no one else was in the lab yet.

"Are you going to pretend not to remember?" Bree asked, making me look at her.

I nodded. "I have to" I said, giving her a small smile.

She looked down at the ground for a while, then looked back at me with a smile. I leaned in for another kiss, but then, the sound of the elevator to the lab came rushing and I pulled back quickly and sat down on the chair, signalling her to act casual.

She did so, and the doors of the elevator opened, revealing Adam. I looked at Adam and sighed.

"You got me scared there for a second" I said, standing up.

"Why?" Adam asked, crossing his arms.

"Nothing" I said, stretching and yawning.

"Alright then, Hey, I got something to show you guys" Adam said. Arousing Bree and Chase's curiosity.

"What is it?" Bree asked, putting her hand on her waist.

Adam stayed silent and fiddled around with the Cyber Desk, pulling up a folder.

I was puzzled, more so that Adam knew how to function the Cyber Desk. Adam continued to fiddle around with it, before opening up a video

"... Is it all going to plan?"

"Yes but... incubators... leaking"

It was annoying, but I could easily make out the sentences.

"Patch... They'll... ready... week"

"Yes, sir"

"Treat... weapons... children"

The man in the lab coat nodded, attending to the incubators again, it was then that I noticed the labels.

"Soon... plans... fulfilled"

Confusion floated around in my mind, as the video ended, it was definitely still a mystery, the man in the video did not look anything like Mr. Davenport.

The video closed itself and everything was silent, the cyber desk shut off by Adam. We stayed silent, looking at each other, evident confusion in our eyes. Just as I was about to speak, the doors to the elevator opened.

All of us turned and looked at Mr. Davenport. He strut up towards us, our eyes not leaving his slight worry contorted face.

"What's wrong?" Bree piped up

Mr. Davenport looked at Bree, a face that clearly read 'How can you not know'

"...So are you gonna tell us? " I said, crossing my arms. Mr. Davenport stayed silent.

"Is it about the wedding?" Adam said, his usual context clueless demeanor around him.

Mr. Davenport looked at him, his eyes in slits.

"How did you know about the wedding?" He asked Adam, converting my confusion to curiosity.

"You're getting married?" I asked, leaning slightly forwards.

He remained silent, before nodding.

I looked at him, bewildered. It wasn't a large surprise after what we just saw, but it was still shocking. He had not told us. I didn't really care about how Adam knew, after seeing how he found the video file.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Bree asked, her mouth slightly agape.

He continued to stay silent. His fist covering his mouth. We waited a while, before he finally spoke up.

"Training, let's go" was his choice of words.

"But you said-"

"Training" Mr. Davenport said, cutting Bree off.

I sat down as Mr. Davenport prepped. I looked up at Bree, her gaze on Mr. Davenport's back. I tugged at her wrist, or more precisely, the leotards that we always wore. She looked down at me and I stared into her eyes.

She gave me a small smile, most probably returning the smile that was plastered onto my face. I took her hand and kissed it quickly, before letting go and resting my hand on the arm of the chair as I heard Mr. Davenport groan from straightening his back.

~time skip~

I panted heavily, wasn't really tiring, more so I had to rely on my basic set of abilities rather than the one I had gained from those few years away from the lab.

I sat down as Mr. Davenport finally dismissed us and told us to head to our capsules for cleaning, I obliged and got into my respective capsule.

The sweat and grime that had made my skin itch and stick even more onto the leotard we were wearing disappeared, as if magic.

Our capsules remained closed and Mr. Davenport bid us good night. It was weird, being back in a capsule, although the memory refresh did do one thing that was good, it made me be able to sleep standing again.

I looked to my right, Bree's capsule just beside me. Oh how I wish we were just side by side. I dismissed the thought and closed my eyes, falling into a REM state.

Most of you are probably gone by now, and from the heading, you should now that this has been in WIP for more than year, so very sorry. R&R&Bye
