Chapter 2:
The remote dropped out of her hands and onto the ground. Bonnie stared at the footage of her father being played on the TV screen. She was at a lost for words. She quickly sat down, not able to believe that her father had just been arrested for his crimes. She had too many questions and no answer. What was going to happen to her dad? What about Marcus, what would become of him? And now that the government knows about the chips, how will her father protect the three bionic children? And finally, who reported Douglas to the authorities? A light headache began to form. Bonnie squeezed her eyes shut... She had to do something, with or without bionics. But what can she do? Bonnie groaned, as the headache began to worsen. She laid down on the couch and closed her eyes, hoping that soon the headache would go away.
Marcus sat anxiously in the the plastic chair. He eyed the blue door behind the officer's desk. All he knew that his dad was taken into that room and the wait was eating at him. Marcus tapped his foot and placed his head in his hands. It had begun to rain steady outside. His eyes wandered once again to the blue metal door. He wondered, what was happening at in there?
The only light that was in the room, was coming from a dim light bulb that cast a ghostly glow on the police officer's face. Douglas sat across from a person by the name of "Daniel. Daniel Leontine" Daniel introduced, taking off his dark shades and putting them on the table. Douglas sat looked up from the table, not saying a word. "Look, Mr. Davenport. You know why you're here, and if you don't well we're not going to waste time to explain to you the things that you did wrong. Cause, you should be able to know right from wrong" Daniel said. "I know I did many illegal things" Douglas began, looking at his hands. "Yes, yes you did" Daniel commented. A few nods were seen. "But give me one year" Douglas said. Daniel looked at him curiously. "What do you mean by one year?" Daniel questioned, folding his hands. "I just need one more year of freedom before you take me to jail" Douglas pleaded. "Why?" Daniel asked. "I just need one more year" Douglas repeated. "But you have to give me a reason" Daniel pressed on. "Because of my son" Douglas admitted. "You mean that boy out there" Daniel asked. Douglas didn't answer. "Wait. You're asking for one more year of freedom so you can spend it with you're son" Daniel said. "Please" Douglas pleaded. Daniel looked at him, "Well, I can't let a psychopathic maniac on the loose..."Daniel said. "Please, I just need one more year." Douglas pleaded. "All do anything" Douglas added. "I can't just let you off the hook. I mean you've done many...many things" Daniel said. Douglas stared at the officer. "Well...what about house arrest" Daniel suggested. "Yes, that will do" Douglas said. "But before I can agree to that, I'll need some answers." Daniel said. Douglas looked at him, fear lingering in his eyes. "Where are the three bionic super humans?" Daniel asked
Marcus stood up, when the blue metal door opened and Douglas stepped out along with another officer. The officer nodded and said, "Wait here for a minute. I'll be right back" and left Douglas in the hallway. "Dad" Marcus said, his voice filled with relief. Douglas looked up, his eyes glazed. "Dad?" Marcus asked. The police officer came back and handed him a metal bracelet. "This is a tracking device. Tomorrow we'll be sending over two officers to your home." Officer Leontine said. With that he left. "House arrest?" Marcus asked. The wind began to blow harder outside, and the wind went from steady to pouring.
Bonnie awoke to the sound of thunder clapping. She let out a loud scream. "Bonnie" a voice said and came to her side. She turned to her side to see . Something was different about him, but she couldn't quite place it. "Bonnie are you okay?" Dr. Henderson asked, his voice full of concern. "I'm alright. Just a little startled by the thunder" Bonnie answered. Taking a closer look at her foster father, she noticed the dark bags under his eyes and the lines that began to form on his forehead. Before she could ask, Dr. Henderson got up and walked over to the kitchen. Her eyes followed him. She noticed his lack of focus and he seemed afraid...Why? "Dad" Bonnie asked getting up and walking over to him. Dr. Henderson looked up. "What's going on?" Bonnie finished, locking her eyes with her dad. Dr. Henderson sighed. "I'm sorry" Dr. Henderson apologized. "What for?" Bonnie asked.
That night, the dinner table at the Davenport was not full of chatter like it was usually was. The three bionic teens feared for their lives. Tasha and Leo feared of the separation of their family, and Mr. Davenport feared for both and his brother. Mr. Davenport put his fork down. He left the table without touching his food. Tasha sighed. Chase got up from the table as well, and headed down to the lab.
Bonnie stared at Dr. Henderson, confusion, anger...Just a bunch of emotions fumbling inside of her. "Bonnie, I'm sorry" Dr. Henderson apologized once more. "You're sorry? Sorry isn't going to fix ANYTHING" Bonnie said, tears had began to fall. "You have to let me explain" Dr. Henderson said. "No...I WON"T LISTEN" Bonnie screamed hands covering her ears.
That was how she ended up here. Standing on the porch of Douglas' house. The rain outside hadn't lessened one bit. Bonnie stood on the porch, dripping wet. She stared at the dark home inside through the window. "Bonnie?" a voice asked from behind.
So? Is it good? I hope you enjoyed it. I would have updated sooner, but there was some sort of error and I couldn't get onto the site. Til the next chapter, PBL.
