My Hero (Lab Rats: Season 1/Chase Davenport Love Story)

Chapter 4: Rats On a Train

Paige's POV

I wake up in my own bed. I hold my head as I look around confused as to how I got in my own bed. I sigh and head to the shower. I stand under the hot water trying to soothe my headache. I sigh as it doesn't help and shut the water off. I wrap my hair in a towel and head back into my room. I put on a pair of light blue skinny jeans with a plain white shirt and white converse. I blow dry my hair and throw it into a messy bun. I apply light mascara and put my bracelets on. I give myself one last look in the mirror and head down to the lab.

"Okay guys. The next phase of your training is handling extreme climates. So we'll frost Chase, bake Bree, and submerge Adam," Davenport says. "That's not part of the training, I just got one of those carnival dunk tanks and I can't wait to try it out," Leo looks at him with a confused look, "Okay, Chase, I'm setting your tube on "Antarctic." If it gets to be too much, just give me a sign," 

"Bring it!" Chase says putting goggles on and stepping into his capsule.  Davenport presses a bunch of buttons on the cyber desk. 

"Hey, that's not fair. I want to be abused by weather!" Leo complains. 

"Leo, if you really want to be abused, try standing over here next to Adam's morning breath,"  Bree says pointing to Adam. 

"I don't have morning breath. It smells like that all day!" Adam says happily. I laugh. I look over at Leo and punch his shoulder.

"There, happy?" I ask smiling. He glares at me. 

"Leo, these guys are genetically engineered to handle these kind of climates. You're not," Davenport says matter-of-factly

"I can handle extreme cold," Leo argues pointing to Chase. 

"Leo, you get brain freeze from chewing mint gum," I say looking at him. Leo glares at me until Davenport's phone rings. 

"Davenport.... What?!...... Well, that's terrible...." He says walking away and we all follow. He turns back around happy "I mean, that's awesome..." He turns around walking away and we follow. "But that's terrible! I-I gotta do something," He hangs up the phone and walks to his cyberdesk.

"What's going on? What's so terrible?" Adam asks concerned.

"I created the world's fastest train, but now it's speeding out of control full of highly explosive Nuclonium towards downtown Welkerville!" He answers.

"Well, then what was awesome?" Bree asks. 

"Its going like 400 miles an hour," He says gloating. 

"Wow, that's amazing," I say.

"My entire career is riding or perhaps crashing on this train! I don't understand it! My design was flawless!" Davenport says frustrated. He looks at something on his iPad. 

"So flawless you forgot to include an emergency brake?" Leo asks crossing his arms.

"No," He responds through gritted teeth. "I never counted on the conductor dropping his papaya smoothie all over the controls and then jumping off the train," He says walking to his cyber desk. 

"Well, if I were to build a high-speed train, the first thing I would have put in was a cupholder," Adam says. "Oh! And one of those bumper stickers on the back that says, 'I brake for cows'" I laugh.

"When stuff like this happens, they always blame the scientist. This is human error. Scientists don't make mistakes," Davenport says. We hear tapping coming from behind us. We turn around and see Chase frozen in his capsule.
