The Final Decision

Chapter 12

Chapter 12.
The hydra loop door opened with Adam, Bree, Leo, Mr. Davenport, Douglas and Chase inside.
Douglas and Mr. Davenport took Chase to the infirmary and Adam, Bree and Leo went to go put up their gear, Selena went to the student dorm, and changed her clothes. Then she went downstairs, pulled out a punching bag and started hitting it.
Then Leo came in there and tapped her shoulder, dodging her glove.
"Ok, I was in the zone and you sneak up on me, not cool Leo, not cool." Selena said taking off the gloves and picking up her water bottle.
"Sorry." Leo said.
"So, any news on Chase?" Selena asked setting down her water bottle.
"Nothing yet." Leo said.
Selena put up the punching bag and gloves, got out a few targets and started target practice with her heat vision.
Just as she disintegrated the last target, Leo started jumping up and down.
"Leo, you're going to hurt yourself, tell me what's going on." Selena said grabbing his shoulders.
"Mr. Davenport sent me a text about Chase, I didn't read it yet, I wanted you to read it to." Leo said.
"You don't even know if it's good or bad. Let me see." Selena said coming towards Leo and looked at the text.
It said, Chase is awake and is asking for Selena, I would have texted her but I don't know her number.
Selena quickly changed out of her workout clothes and into jeans, a white t-shirt and her studded black leather jacket, then followed Leo to Chase's room.
When they got there, Adam and Bree must've gotten a text also, they were outside Chase's room.
Bree was pacing and Adam was content playing with a straw.
"How is he?" Leo asked.
"Chase was awake for a few minutes, he kept asking for Selena and then he passed out again." Adam said.
"It was really scary. After he passed out Mr. Davenport and Douglas told us to leave." Bree said.
"So, we're waiting for Chase to wake up?" Selena asked.
"Pretty much." Adam said, then went back to playing with his straw.
4 hours later.
Adam and Leo fell asleep on the two chairs outside of the room. Bree was texting someone on her phone, and Selena was thinking about Chase. If his experience was anything like her's, he would never be able to forget it.
Then Mr. Davenport and Douglas came out of the room.
Bree and Selena stood up and asked if Chase was ok.
"Chase wants Selena in there, no one else." Mr. Davenport said.
Selena opened the door and closed it behind her.
Chase didn't look great. He was paler than she had ever seen, he was covered in bruises and scrapes and there was a particularly large scrape on his forehead, but he was smiling. It was a very weak smile, but he was happy, that's all that mattered to Selena.
Selena sat down beside him.
"Hey." Selena said.
"Hey." Chase said in a raspy voice.
It just about killed Selena to see him like this.
"Mr. Davenport told me that you saved my brothers and sister." Chase said.
"Well, it was more like put my force field up, get them out and geo leap away." Selena said.
"Doesn't matter, you still saved them. Thanks." Chase said.
"No problem. What happened? If you don't want to talk about it, I completely understand." Selena said.
"After Krane kidnapped me and took me to his lair. I woke up and he said if I could daze him enough, I could leave. I still had a score to settle about my hearing, so I agreed. I don't remember what happened next, but I could tell that he hurt me more then Nicki did, and I passed out. I woke up in here and I wanted to talk to you, then Mr. Davenport touched my shoulder and it hurt so much that I must've passed out again." Chase said.
Selena gently lifted up Chase's short sleeve and gasped.
"What?" Chase asked.
"Your shoulder. The one that's dislocated, the burn mark that Krane made, how did it get infected so fast?" Selena said.
"How did you know my shoulder was dislocated?" Chase asked.
"I can read minds, remember?" Selena asked.
"Yeah." Chase said.
"Mr. Davenport must've set it while you were unconscious." Selena said.
Then Selena put her hand on his forehead.
"What? Chase asked.
"You have a fever, probably from the infection, I wonder if Mr. Davenport and Douglas know about this." Selena said.
"They probably do." Chase said.
"I'm gonna go get Mr. Davenport." Selena said getting up.
"Selena, don't leave." Chase said.
"How about I ask Bree to go get him?" Selena asked.
"Ok." Chase said.
"She's right outside the door. I'll go get her." Selena said.
She opened the door and said something and they heard super speed.
Selena sat back down beside Chase.
"Chase, I'm sorry for being so immature, I should have never quit the team, I was just so upset about what Krane did to you that, I panicked, I love you to much to lose you, and I was so upset when I heard about your lack of hearing, that I overreacted. I'm sorry, if you can forgive me, witch I'm not going to force you to, but I'm really sorry." Selena said.
"I forgive you." Chase said.
Selena gently hugged him and kissed his forehead.
Then Mr. Davenport came in the room.
"Did you know that his shoulder was infected?" Selena asked.
"Yeah, I was about to set it when he passed out again so I did while he was unconscious." Mr. Davenport said.
"What are you going to do?" Selena asked.
Mr. Davenport grabbed the IV and poured clear liquid into it.
Then he tried to put it into Chase's arm but kept moving away from the needle.
"He's scared of needles isn't he." Selena demanded.
"Yeah. Chase, I promise, it's gonna help you, and I don't think you want your girlfriend to hold you down. That's just embarrassing." Mr. Davenport said.
Chase still looked like he was gonna have a panic attack.
"Selena, can you go get Adam?" Mr. Davenport asked.
Selena nodded and super speeded out of the room and came back with Adam.
"Why did you make Selena come get me? I didn't even have time to pause my cartoons." Adam said.
"Really?" Mr. Davenport said to Selena.
"Hey, you said to get him, you said nothing about telling him why." Selena said.
Mr. Davenport picked up Chase's arm and put the IV in his arm.
Adam held onto Chase tightly enough so he couldn't get free but gently enough so he didn't hurt him.
"You can let go of him now." Mr. Davenport said.
Adam let go of Chase.
"I am going back to watch my cartoons that Selena interrupted." Adam said leaving the room.
