Chapter 2: Your Protector
Chase's .P.O.V.
I watched the monitors anxiously as Davenport did what he could, to save the girl with the golden brunette hair who happened to get hit by a car in front of our house- mansion.
Davenport scanned her after attaching an iv with medicine into the port in her left arm that he had installed. "Uh Chase?" He asked, looking down at the scanner in awe. "Yeah, what did you find?" I asked worriedly.
"Well, Chase, it seems, uh she's bionic too." Davenport said, with a both confused and intrigued look on his face. "What? How? I mean, Adam and I?" I asked quizzically.
"Well, I had a partner, Dr. Alexander Morgan. We created a third bionic, and he raised her with his wife." Davenport told me, obviously the short version.
"How did she get here, and hit by a car, then? And why didn't Adam and I know?" I pressed, looking him dead in the eyes. Adam was stupid because of his Super Strength, but obviously he'd remember something like this.
"Well, I don't know the answer to that first question, the best we could do for that is wait until she wakes up. And the second question was well, you might have met him and the third, her once when you were little, other than that I'm not sure at the moment." Davenport told me, bandaging the girl and patching her injuries as best as he could.
I didn't know what to say to that, any of it really. This was all new to me, even with having Super Smarts. "And Chase?" I nodded my head in response, too shocked to say anything else.
"Well, it seems she's pregnant. Around three weeks." Davenport said. I swallowed for a moment. She had a little life inside of her? If she didn't have a boyfriend, well I hoped she didn't, but then, if she never had a boyfriend, that led to two things, she had a sperm donor, which that's ruled out otherwise she would have a definite place to stay. Then the other option, a tragedy in itself.
If anything, I knew that I wanted this golden haired beauty to be mine, no matter what. I don't know what came over me, but I just knew somehow.
"Chase? Earth to Chase?" Adam said nonchalantly from behind me. "What, Adam?" I retorted. "Mr. Davenport said we need to wait for her to wake up. I think her name is Bree." Adam told me.
"How do you know her name?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "It's on her suitcases, and you call me stupid!" Adam shot back. "Oh.. ok then."
Adam nodded and I rolled my eyes at him. I just got distracted didn't I? And over a girl too.
I sighed and sat in a stray chair near the hospital bed she- well apparently Bree was resting on.
A while later, she woke up. "Wh-where I am?" She asked weakly, trying to sit up. "You're in the Davenport lab. I'm Chase and that's my sort brother Adam. You were hit by a car and Mr. Davenport kinda saved you, but also kinda not, since you are we found, a Bionic Super Human like us."
"I am so confused!" Adam burst in. The girl nodded. "I-I'm Bree Morgan. I ran away because I was kinda kicked out. And then, I found the address for here in Dr. Morgan's office, and so I ran here, remembering Dr. Davenport having bionic Super Humans of his own, people like me." She spoke softly, with a raspy voice. It was clear she had been crying.
"Why would you get kicked out? And if you don't mind me asking, what are your powers?" I asked, going over to her. I gently placed my hand on her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her and she flinched at my touch.
"Because Chase. I-I'm pregnant." Bree said, her voice shaking with every word. "I-i never wanted this." She started sobbing and I wrapped my arms around her fully, sitting next to her as she flinched again before relaxing at my touch. "I-i.." she stuttered.
"It'll be ok, I promise." I assured. "How?" Bree asked softly, looking up at me with her deep brown eyes meeting my hazel. "It just will. Adam and I will be there for you, and Mr. Davenport will help too, I'm sure. And also his wife, Tasha and our step brother, Leo." I kissed her forehead.
"Thank you Chase." She cracked a smile at me. I smiled back and sat with her, wiping her tears away with the back of my hand.
"Do you want to tell me what happened? It's ok if you don't." I asked her, holding her against my chest.
"It's ok, I trust you now." Bree said taking a deep breath before speaking. "I-i was... r-raped." I frowned deeply and held her tighter. "it's ok, I promise nobody will hurt you again. I'll be your protector."
"Promise?" Bree looked up at me again. I nodded and smiled at her. "I promise. Cross my heart hope to die."
"Die with me, when it's time." Bree leaned on my shoulder and nuzzled into my neck. "With you."
