Hi everyone! So I've been wanting to write a Christian fan-fic for a while, so here you are! Right off the bat I want to make sure you guys understand that I will use a lot of my personal beliefs in this story (based off what I believe about God and the Bible). If you disagree, I'm sorry. So let's all agree to disagree, okay? No one is making you read this story. Got it? Great!

I know I'm working on four stories at once now, but, seeing as how it's summer now (at least where I am), I really wanted to upload this. I'll be working on it throughout the summer.

Shout-out to ABCDavenport for inspiring me to finally work on a Christian Lab Rats story. Go check out their stories; they are fantastic! :D

This chapter is a bit slow, I know, but it's just the start. Hopefully you'll enjoy it though! I don't own Lab Rats.

* * * Chapter 1 * * *

"Bree! Bree, Bree, Bree, Bree!"

Bree finally turned around after hearing her name called for the umpteenth time. The person shouting her name was barreling down the hallway, blonde hair flapping wildly. The girl skidded to a halt in front of Bree's locker and gave a big grin.

"Hi Lucy," Bree said. "You know everyone's looking at us now, right?"

"Oh, Bree," Lucy said, placing a gentle hand on Bree's shoulder. "You're friends with me. You'll get used to it."

Bree just chuckled and placed her books into her locker. "So, was there any reason for shouting my name for the entire school to hear?" she teased.

"Oh, yeah, right!" Lucy exclaimed. She pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose like she always did when she was about to give an 'important announcement.' "Okay, so you know that I'm a Christian, right?"

"Yeah," Bree said hesitantly. "You're not going to invite me to church, are you?"

"No!" Lucy said with a nervous laugh. "Well, not quite. Uh, I mean, you see . . . Ugh, I'm not that good at this. But my youth pastor told me to try, so I will. So, here's the deal: my church sends us to summer camp every year and I was wondering, well, if you would want to go with me. Maybe?"

"Um . . ." Bree started to say, but Lucy cut her off.

"It's a ton of fun! There's zip lining and swimming and kayaking and a basketball court and a cute little gift shop and their cafeteria has the best chicken you will ever eat!"

"But it's a church camp?" Bree clarified.

"Well, yes," Lucy said slowly, tucking a strand of her shoulder-length blonde hair behind her ear. "I mean, yeah, there's chapel in the mornings and evenings. But it's not that bad! My youth pastor said it's great to invite people who don't go to church to come to camp 'cause it's a super-fun environment and not all that 'churchy,' if you know what I mean."

"I'm not so sure, Lucy," Bree said. "I mean, I don't know what my dad would say. And I've never really gone to camp before . . ."

"Then this will be perfect!" Lucy interrupted. "There's a ton of fun things to do. There's a playground that's fun to climb on and these great swings and a creek that we can go exploring in! And ropes courses and we get to roast s'mores and on the last day of camp there's a huge dance party!"

"That all sounds really fun and all, but I just don't know," Bree said.

"Look, just promise me you'll look into it, 'kay?" Lucy said stubbornly.

"But . . ."

"'Kay?"

"Alright, alright, okay," Bree surrendered.

"Great!" Lucy said, a grin spreading across her face. "Here, if you want more info I have a . . . oh, where'd it go?"

Bree watched in amusement as Lucy dug through her backpack. She threw out all her books and papers and frantically tore into every corner. Then suddenly she grinned and held up a small note-card-sized piece of paper triumphantly. "Aha!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Surprised you actually found it," Bree chuckled, knowing how scatterbrained her friend could be.

"I know, right?" Lucy agreed with a grin. "Anyway, here's a little postcard with the date and stuff. Plus it's got our church's website, where you can get more info and watch a video. Promise me you'll check it out."

"Alright, I'll check it out."

"Awesome. Oh, and your brothers can come too, if they want."

"Oh, yeah, that's just what I need," Bree said sarcastically. "Another activity to do with my stupid brothers."

"Since they're boys they'd be in different groups," Lucy explained with a shrug. "And since they're in different grades, they probably wouldn't even be with each other. Unless you make an effort to meet up with them, the only time you'd see them is if you happened to pass them in the cafeteria or something."

"Well, I'll look into it and ask them," Bree said.

"Good. Now, there are only so many spots, so if you would like to go, then sign up soon. I'd love it if you could come. I could introduce you to all my church friends! You'd really like Kate." Just then the bell began to ring. Lucy bit her lip and said, "I can't be late again or I'll get in trouble. See you later, Bree!"

"Bye!" Bree called as her friend charged down the hall. Bree then looked down at the postcard in her hands, contemplating what Lucy had told her.

Dramatic music played in the background of the video. Images of people playing games and doing all sorts of activities flashed across the screen of Bree's laptop. She was perched comfortably on the couch in the living room. The boys were in the lab and Tasha was shopping, so Bree had a quiet environment to watch the video in. She watched with curiosity as the video announced the band and speakers. At the end of the video the dates came up and the music faded. Bree picked up her phone and began to text Lucy.

Hi so I watched the vid – Bree

After a few minutes Bree got a response.

The camp vid? – Lucy

Yah – Bree

Did u like it? – Lucy

I dunno. The activities look kinda interesting – Bree

Yah they totally r. And this is coming from some1 who hates sports w/ a passion. :P – Lucy

It's a lot of $ - Bree

Says the gal w/ the billionaire father. Have u asked him about it? – Lucy

No. And I'm not sure I want 2 – Bree

Aw, come on! It'll be fun, I promise! There's so much 2 do. Didn't u see all the activities in the vid? – Lucy

Yah, but I'm not sure – Bree

Alright, well, I won't push u into something u don't want 2 do. But it would still be gr8 if u could talk to ur dad about it. least – Lucy

Ok, I guess I could give it a try – Bree

Gr8. Let me know what he says. G2G my mom's calling me. TTYL! – Lucy

Yah, TTYL – Bree

The female bionic placed her phone down and sighed. Some part of her was very intrigued about this whole "church camp" thing. And yet some part of her really didn't want to go. She couldn't explain why.

Bree didn't have much experience with church or religion growing up. But ever since she had met Lucy a few months ago her interest had been growing. Bree couldn't deny that there was something different about her friend. Lucy was always so nice and treated everyone with love and respect. She didn't judge people or tear them down. It was strange behavior for a high-schooler. Bree had been interested since the day she met Lucy to find out why she acted that way.

This church camp seemed interesting. Those kids in the video seemed like they were having a lot of fun. Admittedly Bree was very intrigued by it. She really did want to go. But would her family approve? Bree decided she would ask them at dinner that night. It was gamble, but Bree was willing to take the risk. She wanted to know what this "Christianity" was really all about.

So did you like it? Like I said, it's just a bit of an intro thing. There will be more as it goes on. Oh, and the first few chapters will focus on Bree, but eventually Adam and Chase will be involved as well.

Audience participation time! What would you guys like to happen at church camp? Any activities you'd like to see the Lab Rats do? I'm basing some of this story off personal experiences, but if you want to see something be sure to tell me about via PM or review! I'd love to hear your ideas and I'll credit you if I use yours.

What did you think of Lucy? How do you think Bree's family will react? Please don't forget to review and tell me! I'll try to update next week. I'm actually going to my church camp this week, so hopefully I'll get really inspired and come up with new ideas for this story. So anyway, review/follow/favorite if you liked it, and I'll see you guys in a bit!
