Chapter 4: Avalanche!
FYI: I am only going to write the scenes with Sabrina in them. I do not own Lab Rats, only Sabrina and any other OCs I add. Spoiler Alerts in this chapter.
Chase's P.O.V.
I'm in the lab getting ready to get the cytainium when Sabrina walks in.
"What are you doing Chase?" She asks as I put on my winter mission suit.
"Nothing..." I say.
"You suck at lying." She says, then asks, "You're going to the cytainium site, aren't you?"
"No..." I say, "Yes."
"Don't go."
"Too late. I'm going."
"Then I'm coming."
"But its too dan.."
"It's too dangerous for you too."
"Fine. Come. You can use Bree's extra suit since I know I can't convince you otherwise."
"Good." She says, puts on the suit and we leave.
Later...
No one's P.O.V.
"Hey, Mr. Davenport. Have you seen Chase and Sabrina? They are not answering their phones and Chase's mission suit and gear are gone." Bree says.
"What?" Donald asked.
"Yea. I'm worried he's been carried away by a small predatory bird." Adam replies.
"Get Chase on the comm set, now." Donald says.
"Got'em." Bree says.
"Chase, where are you?" Donald says.
"I'm at the cytainium site with Sabrina." Chase says.
"What? I told you it was too dangerous. What are you doing?" Donald replys.
"I'm proving that even without super strength and super speed, I can still get the job done." Chase says.
"And I tried to stop him from going." Sabrina yells.
Then, there is an avalanche warning on the computer.
"You're about to be trapped by a major storm. Get outta there now!" Donald says.
"It's okay Mr. Davenport, we're almost done. We just have to get the last of the samples." Chase replies.
"No. Abort and seek shelter. That's an order. That storm..." Donald says, followed by rumbling, "What was that noise?"
Then an avalanche starts. Chase wraps his arms around Sabrina and she does the same as the snow comes down on them.
"Sabrina? Chase!"" Donald yells.
"There was a major avalanche at Chase's coordinates." Bree says and they all look sadly at each other.
"They may still be alive but we don't have much time." Donald says.
"Adam. Let's go!" Bree yells and her and Adam start running.
Later...
Chase's P.O.V.
The blow knocked Sabrina unconscious in my arms, and I hate to admit I like her, even though I only met her a few days ago.
"You'll never know how much I love you, Sabrina Davenport." I say.
"I love Chase." She mumbles in her sleep. It must be a coincidence. There are other Chases out there. I grab the mission logger out of my pocket.
"Chase Mission Log: Hour 3." I say, "This could be my last recorded words. We're still stuck under a mountain of snow. The air is getting thinner and thinner. I am cold, I am hungry, and these snow pants are giving me an extreme wedgie." I stick it back in my pocket as someone starts digging in the snow. "Yes! Adam! Bree! I knew you would come for us! We're in here!" I shout. Then the snow breaks. I turn upward, letting go of Sabrina and come face-to-face with... Douglas!
"What are you doing here?" I ask.
"I'm saving my son's life!" He replies.
He digs us out of the snow.
"That your girlfriend?" Douglas questions as I pick up Sabrina.
I wish, "No."
At Douglas' Tent...
Still Chase
Sabrina wakes up leaning against my shoulder.
"Who's that?" She whispers to me.
"Douglas." I whisper in reply.
"Oh..." She says.
"Would you like some soup?" Douglas asks, "I went to cooking school in the 90's. It's Tuscan Bean."
"Is it poison?" I question back.
"Yes. I flew 10,000 miles around the world in a massive storm and risked my life in an avalanche to rescue you, so I could then poison you." He says sarcastically.
I grab the two cups of soup from Douglas and hand one to Sabrina. We both take a sip and she says 'Mmmm' in reply.
"Uh. Make a pretty good soup for a diabolical maniac." I say.
"You should try my quiche." He replies.
"Yea, maybe some other time. We're leaving." I say.
"Suit yourself, but you and your girlfriend will freeze to death before anyone else gets here."
"We can survive in these suits. Mr. Davenport made them. They're built to withstand temperatures down to 45 below."
"It's 50 below."
"That explains the frostbite. I'm not worried. They'll come for us."
"They already have."
"What?"
"Oh the weather must have been too much for them. Looks like Adam and Bree are going home without yas. Those are their GPS signals. That's how I found you."
"So you've been stalking us?" I ask.
"You call it stalking, I call it lovingly lurking in the shadows." He replies.
A Few Minutes Later
Sabrina's P.O.V.
Chase is pacing the room. Douglas is siting in the middle of the floor. I'm sitting in a corner.
"So.. What's on your agenda for today? Build some bombs, take over a tiny country, steal money from old ladies?" Chase asks.
"No! Well, not in that order..." Douglas says, "Oh come on, I'm not that bad of a guy." and Chase sits down.
"You trapped us in a dungeon and tried to turn us into your bionic soldiers."
"Ok, Ok. So I might have overreacted with that whole abduction thing. I was never gonna hurt anybody. I just wanted to get back at Donald."
"When are the two of you just gonna grow up?"
"I'll grow up when he grows up!" Douglas exclaimed and stood up, "Look, Chase, You and I have a lot more in common than you think. I know what it's like to be unappreciated. To have a sibling who always steals the spotlight. I know how hard it's been for you. And I can help."
"For the last time, I don't need your help."
"What if I told you you could be stronger than Adam and faster than Bree. I can make it so that you have all three abilities. Speed, strength and intelligence."
"How." Chase asks.
Oh no. Chase can't join the bad side. I love him and I know he loves me.
"You were the third one. By the time I got to you, I knew how to build in capacity for upgrades. But my brother took you away before I could finish. Join me Chase. I can help you be all you were meant to be. Deviled egg?""
"But if I go with you, that means I'm abandoning my family."
"The same family that mocks you, and never gives you the credit you deserve, for anything!"
"What would I have to do?" Chase says
"Wait. Hold up. Chase, a moment?" I drag him to the other side of the tent, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm doing what's right." He replies
"And you think this is right? I love you a lot and I don't want to lose you."
"You love me too?"
"Yea, maybe." I say, and begin to chew on my bottom lip.
"Well, I want to go out with you, but you have to trust me."
"I do trust you. I don't trust him." I say, a little louder than I should.
"Trust. Me." He says and kisses me on the lips. I'm shocked, but my instincts take over and we passionately kiss for a minute before Douglas yells, "Chase! Stop kissing your girlfriend and tell me if you're in."
"What do I have to do?" Chase asks again when we're back by Douglas, our hands interlocked.
"I just need to upgrade your bionic chip. As you can see, I no longer have access to state of the art systems, so we'll have to use Donald's cyberdesk."
"Yea, I guess we could sneak you into the lab. Mr. Davenport won't be there. It's Wednesday which means, something's getting waxed."
"He is hairy. He gets that from our mom. It's perfect, we'll be in and outta there before anyone knows we're there. What do ya say?"
"Alright Mr. Davenport. I'm in." Chase says and shakes Douglas' hands with his other hand, the right.
"Super. Hehheh hehheh hehheh. If you want, you can call me Dad." Douglas says
"No I'm good." Chase replies.
Later...
Still Sabrina
"Ow!" Douglas exclaims as he gets shocked by one of Dad's gadgets.
"The download is almost finished." Chase says.
"3 more minutes and I can give you everything that Adam and Bree have, plus the capacity for more." Douglas says.
Then the garage door opens. "Don't give up guys. There's still a chance we'll find them." Dad says, "Chase! Sabrina!"
"You're alive!" Bree exclaims.
"Ho! It's evil uncle Daddy!" Adam points out.
"Back away from him guys." Dad says.
"It's too late Donald. They're with me now." Douglas replies.
"What?" Dad says.
"Chase, what's going on?" Bree asks.
"It's true. I've finally taken back what was stolen from me." Douglas says.
Then Leo runs in. "Alright Big D. I know I'm not supposed to touch your stuff but you know how sometimes things happen and sometimes things happen when you really don't want them to happen and that just happens to be what just happened... upstairs."
Dad covers his hand and points to Douglas. Leo turns and screams.
"Whatever you're up to Douglas, you're not going to get away with it." Dad says.
The computer beeps. "I just did. The download's finished. I now have the power to give Chase all three bionic abilities and now no one will be able to stop us! Hehheh." Douglas replies with a USB drive in hand.
"Actually, they can. That USB drive you're holding is useless." Chase says. There's my Chase.
"What? Well then what just took an hour and a half to download?" Douglas shouts.
"A list of everything Adam has ever eaten." Chase replies.
"Not my Incredible Edibles!" Adam yells.
"You double-crossed me." Douglas says.
"Yea, duh." I say
"Yea, Did ya really think I would betray my own family." Chase questioned.
"Well it's always worked for me." Douglas answers.
"Even if you could offer me every ability there is, I would never go to your side. We're a team. And teams never quit on each other." Chase says and I realize we're still holding hands, but I don't let go.
"Alright. Ya got me. Hehhehhaha. Why don't ya say we just put all this behind us and get down to the business of healing this family. Am I right? Bring it in people, lets hug it out." He says and opens his arms for a hug. Adam tries to go hug him but Dad goes, "Adam." and Adam goes back over by him.
"Well ya know what they say, if you can't join'em..." Douglas says and pulls out a ray gun.
"Get down!" Chase says, lets go of my hand and blasts Douglas with the . He turns into a block of ice.
We all get up.
"Wow!" Leo says, "You froze him. Now exactly how would someone go about unfreezing someone, cause it's not the button located here, here, here, here, here oorrr here."
"Mr. Davenport I'm really sorry. I know I should have warned you about Douglas. I just knew that if we could get him back here, we could trap him for good." Chase says.
"Good work Chase. You make a great double agent." Dad replies.
"Oh thanks Dad." I say sarcastically and walk toward him.
"You too baby girl." He says and hugs me.
"Oh, and I almost forgot. Here's your cytainium." Chase says and hands him the bag.
"Ooh, money (x like 15). Sorry. I mean thank you." Dad says.
"I don't know about you, but I'm going to take a nap." I say and stare at Chase for a second before I go.
~And Chabrina prevails. I hope I get more reviews. Ciao.
Question: Do you like the idea of Chabrina?
