The Return Of Marcus

Chapter 9

Chapter nine.
Selena snuck into the teachers quarters and knocked on the front of Chase's capsule.
"Who's there?! What's happening?! Are we under attack?!" Chase exclaimed.
"Shh! Wow, you are really loud. I wanna show you something, come on." Selena whispered holding her ears.
"Sorry, I'm coming." Chase whispered clicking a button on the inside of his capsule and walking out in his mentor outfit.
"Close your eyes." Selena whispered holding his hand.
After she lead Chase through several rooms, they finally stopped.
"Ok. Open them." Selena said.
Chase opened his eyes and realized that they were on the roof.
"It's the sunrise. Why did you want to show me this?" Chase asked.
"After Krane was gone and my Triton app turned off, the sunrise was the first thing I saw. It made me realize that someone had saved me. I could go do whatever I wanted and no one could stop me. After you guys found me in Florida, I finally realized, it was you." Selena said sitting down.
Chase sat down beside her.
"Technically, Leo and Mr. Davenport saved you, but I guess we all did." Chase said holding her hand.
"After you defeated Krane, I learned so much about the real world and I thought, why did Krane want to take over the world? You know besides the fact he was a power hungry weirdo. But no one should try to take over the world, humans are happy on there own. They shouldn't be bossed around." Selena said.
"That's exactly what we are trying to prevent." Chase said putting a arm on her shoulder and held her very close.
Selena put her head on his shoulder and smiled.
"Are you cold?" Chase asked.
"Yeah." Selena said rubbing her arms.
Chase took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
"Better?" Chase asked.
"Yeah." Selena said.
It was their first perfect moment.
"Ahem." Someone cleared their throat.
And then like all moments, it had to come to a end.
Selena and Chase screamed, turned around and stood up fast to see Mr. Davenport.
"No one's allowed out of there rooms until six, care to explain?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"Well........." Chase said with his voice trailing off.
"I'm waiting." Mr. Davenport said.
"It's my fault Mr. Davenport, I wanted to show Chase something very important to me, please, punish me however you want, but don't blame Chase." Selena admitted.
"When did you get him up?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"About ten minutes ago." Selena said.
"I'm gonna let you off with a warning, but I don't want to find you two out here this early again and Chase, you are grounded for three days. Do you understand me?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"Yes sir." Selena said.
"Chase?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"Alright Mr. Davenport." Chase said.
"Ok, come downstairs." Mr. Davenport said.
"Chase, I'm sorry I got you in trouble." Selena said handing him back his jacket.
"It's fine." Chase said heading downstairs not making eye contact with her.
As soon as they got in the academy, Selena super speeded towards Bree.
"Hey Selena. What's up?" Bree asked.
"Me and Chase had a moment on the roof, and he gave me his mentor jacket." Selena said.
"Are you serious?" Bree asked.
Selena nodded.
"That is so awesome!" Bree happily exclaimed.
"I know!" Selena happily exclaimed.
Later.
"Ok, today's class is face to face combat without bionics. If you get captured and the signal that reaches your chip is blocked, then you have to get physical. You guys are going up against Chase's class, and they aren't allowed to use their bionics as well, so no strength, no speed, no smarts and you can't use any other abilities so, sorry Leo, but you're gonna get beat up. Do you guys understand how to do this?" Bree asked.
The students nodded.
"Hey!" Leo exclaimed.
"Alright, Chase and myself are going to demonstrate and then you guy's are going to try to get it right." Bree said.
Chase's class walked in the room.
"Selena, I want you to referee." Bree said.
"Anddddd go!" Selena yelled.
Chase and Bree grabbed each others shoulders and tried to take the other one down, then Bree kicked him in the stomach and Chase punched her while she was still hunched over, then Bree grabbed his arm and flung him over.
Chase groaned.
"And in this situation, you don't want to be Chase." Bree said.
Bree grabbed his arm and pulled him up.
"Ok Bree, I think you broke my back." Chase said.
"Don't be a baby." Bree said.
"Ok, I'll know if you are cheating with bionics." Chase said.
"Selena, Aden, you're up." Bree said.
"Go!" Chase exclaimed.
Selena did a high kick in Aden's face then went around well he was still stunned, grabbed his arm and flung him over.
Bree's class cheered.
Selena helped Aden up.
"You ok?" Selena asked.
"Yeah." Aden said.
"Selena wins!" Bree yelled holding up Selena's hand.
Just then Mr. Davenport's face came up on the screen.
"What's wrong Mr. Davenport?" Selena asked.
"This doesn't concern you Selena, I need Chase, Bree, Adam and Leo right now, it's a emergency." Mr. Davenport said.
"Sorry we have to cut class short, keep practicing." Chase said.
Mr. Davenport's office.
"What's wrong big D?" Leo asked.
"Look at the footage from my facility." Mr. Davenport said pulling it up.
The footage showed the block of ice Gisele was in when a teenager walked in and took out the security guards, melted the block of ice with heat vision and grabbed Gisele when he turned around and revealed himself as.......
"Marcus? But he's under a pile of rubble in Douglas's old lair." Bree said.
"I think Gisele was able to reassemble him before we froze her. Douglas!" Mr. Davenport yelled.
"What?" Douglas asked.
"Did you tell Gisele about Marcus?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"I might have mentioned him." Douglas said.
"What were you thinking?!" Mr. Davenport yelled.
"I was thinking she was a movie director and my ex girlfriend from college so I was trying to get her back, until she abducted Chase of course." Douglas said.
"The remote. The button must have activated Marcus." Bree said.
"There's no doubt about that. I'm putting the academy on lockdown, no one comes in or out. We have to prepare for the worst." Mr. Davenport said
This is probably my second favorite chapter of the book! First favorite is chapter 11, which we aren't too yet.
