Chapter 7

I just wanna say I really hope the people who actually submitted characters still read this story after the super long hiatus. I hope you guys are still reading.

"Mr. Davenport, how many more of the rescue missions do we have to go on?" Adam asked.

"Only five more different missions," he said.

"But that only adds up to eleven bionics," Chase said.

"Yes, but three of them will be in the same mission," Donald looked at him, "your next mission is rescue Adison Jennings. I just found out about twenty minutes ago that she has been abused by her father. Bree, I only want you to go in there to find her,"

"Why can't we go in?" Adam asked.

"Because she's a girl and she's being abused and we don't know what kind of state she'll be in when we find her," Donald said, "Bree, take some of your clothes. Just in case,"

Bree nodded.

"What can she do?" Chase asked.

"She's smart, she can turn invisible, and she's pyrokinetic,"

"Ok. Everyone ready?" Bree asked. Her brothers nodded and the three left.

Bree stealthy climbed up the side of Adison Jenning's home. She dug the blade of the knife she had taken with her under the window, and pried it open. She slipped inside and saw the naked girl handcuffed to her bed.

"Oh my god," she whispered.

"What?" Chase asked through the com system.

"It's worse than we thought," she said. This cause Adison to wake up.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Bree. Keep your voice down. I'm here to rescue you,"

"How did you find me?"

"Your bionic chip has a tracking device in it. My father has been watching it for months. He just discovered you were being abused, so he sent us to rescue you,"

"Who is us?" Adison asked.

"Me and my two doofus brothers," Bree replied, "which I kinda wish were here because handcuffs are hard to break,"

"You can bring them in. Anything to get me out of here,"

"Ok. here," Bree pulled a blanket out of the backpack on her back, and covered Adison with it, "Adam. Get in here. Quickly. I need you to break handcuffs,"

Seconds later, Adam was in the bedroom. He had pulled the handcuffs off Adison's wrists and ankles. Then Bree shooed him out.

"I have clothes for you to change into in the helicopter," Bree said, "we just have to go,"

Adison nodded and wrapped the blanket around her. The two of them leapt into the bushes below Adison's window. They got in the helicopter, and Chase took off. Bree handed Adison the clothes, and held the blanket up so the boys couldn't see her changing.

"Thank you," Adison said, "thank you so much,"

"You're welcome," Bree said. We're heading back to our mansion where there's fifteen other bionic people there,"

"Fifteen?!"

"Including my brothers and I, but they're not all there yet. There's still seven we need to get. But you can stay there for as long as you like,"

"Thank you so much," she began crying, "thank you,"

Bree wrapped her arm around Adison, and hugged her. The girl really needed a hug.

"There's seven more bionics we need to find, Mr. Davenport," Chase said.

"I'm aware,"

"Where is the next one or ones?"

"These next ones are siblings. They are...oh my god!"

"What?" the three asked.

"One of them is in critical condition, dying. You've gotta go, now!"

"Where?" Chase asked.

"Maddy and Benny Johnson are in Meadowville! Benny's dying! Go!" Donald shouted.

Adam knocked so hard on the Johnson's door that he put his hand through it.

"Oops," he pulled his hand up. Lilly came and opened the door.

"Are you Maddy Johnson?" Chase asked urgently.

"No. Why?"

"We need to find Benny Johnson," Chase said, "he's dying,"

"I know, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna let three random strangers,"

"We're bionic like the Johnsons are we can save him!" Adam said. Lilly took a step back.

"Upstairs, second door on the left," Lilly said.

Chase nodded and they ran into the house. They burst into the room that Maddy, Benny, and Carter were in.

"Are you Maddy Johnson?" Chase asked.

"Yeah," she stood up.

"We're bionic as well," Chase said, "we have a safe place for Benny to be treated. He's in critical condition. He's dying. You two need to come with us. Now,"

"Why should I...?"

"If you guys don't come Benny is going to die!" Bree said.

"Ok. Lets go," Maddy said. Chase nodded at Adam who went and picked Benny up. Him and Chase left.

"Maddy, come on," Bree said. Maddy began walking from the room. She stopped in front of Carter who looked like he might cry.

"I'll be back," she said, and kissed him. Then she turned and followed Bree out the door.

Mr. Davenport! We've got him!" Chase shouted. As he ran into the lab.

"Awesome! Adam get him in your capsule!" Donald shouted and ran over to the control panel. Adam went into his capsule, and balanced Benny upright. He exited and closed the door.

"What is that thing?" Maddy asked.

"It's a capsule. It's pretty much a tiny house," Bree said.

"That doubles as a hospital," Chase added.

"It's the best place for him right now," Bree said, "you can stay here, or I can have Leo take you downstairs to be with some of the other bionics,"

"I think I'll go downstairs, I guess. I'm tired. Is he going to be ok?" Maddy said.

"He is going to be fine," Bree said, "LEO!"

Leo ran over and began talking to Maddy, explaining everything to her. Bree then walked over to the control panel to join Adam, Chase, and Donald.

"How is he?" Bree asked.

"He's going to be fine. He just needed to be in an environment suited for a bionic. He has a concussion, and there is a possibility for permanent brain damage, but that's all I found, plus the gash on his forehead,"

"That's all?" Bree asked.

"I believe so," Donald said, he just needs to stay in here until he wakes up, and we'll go from there,"

"Ok. What's our next mission?" Chase asked.

"Taylor Ryan. She's in North Shore. There shouldn't be any combat on this mission, but you never know. Be prepared,"

"Don't worry Mr. Davenport," Chase said, "we will be,"

They made their way towards Taylor's apartment building. They made their way up the stairs, and in front of her apartment door.

"Wait," Chase said, "let me scan the room before we go in. Just in case,"

Chase scanned the room while his siblings waited impatiently.

"There's more than one person in there," Chase told him siblings, "it looks threatening, but I only have infrared. Be prepared,"

"Adam...do it," Bree said. Adam kicked the door in, and it went flying across the room. It hit William who was standing over Taylor. She was on the floor then stood up. She looks as if she was crying.

"Who are you?" she croaked out.

"I'm Chase," he said, "and this is Adam and Bree. We're here to help. We're bionic, like you. We'll take you back to our house, with others like yourself,"

"Can we take my mother?" she asked. Then William stood up, and grabbed Taylor by the hair. She screamed, and Adam went and tackled him.

"Are you going to come with us?" Bree asked.

"But my mom!" Taylor shouted.

"Where is she?" Chase asked. Taylor turned and pointed at the dead body on the floor, "that complicates things a bit,"

"Adam!" Bree shouted, "grab that body and we're out of here!"

"Which one?" he asked.

"That one!" Chase pointed at Taylor's mother's dead body. Adam nodded. He jumped off William, grabbed the body, and ran from the room. William chased after them. They jumped into the helicopter, Adam closed the door, and Chase jumped into the pilot's seat. They tried taking off, but something was weighing tem down. Adam opened up the door, and looked down.

"It's him!" Adam shouted, "He's hanging onto the helicopter!"

"Well get rid of him!" Chase shouted. Taylor pushed past Adam.

"William!" she said, reaching for him, "please wake up,"

William looked her in the eye, then grabbed her wrists and began pulling her from the helicopter. Adam broke them apart and pushed Taylor back into the helicopter. He reached his foot out, and stomped on his hand. He didn't let go. Adam shot his heat vision at William's wrist, but he still wouldn't let go. Adam kept shoot until he hand came clean off. Then he did it to the other, and William fell to the ground.

Adam closed the door, and sat back in his chair. Chase flew higher into the sky, and away from North Shore.

"William..." Taylor said quietly. It was the only word that was said the entire ride back.

"Anthony Victon,, Analisa Hattery, and Zenganya Merseth," Donald said, "they all go to Rose Creek High. It's a private school about fifty miles from here. There's been some...I don't know how to describe it, but some weird stuff is happening there. Just go in and find Andy Victon,he'll lead you to the others,"

"Are they dangerous?" Bree asked.

"As far as I know, they're not," Donald said.

"Alright, let's go," Chase led them out of the lab. then Donald glanced over to the bionic boy in Adam's capsule. He began to stir. Donald quickly ran to get his sister. The last thing he needed was one of the two most powerful duo here to wake up scared and refuse to help.

The three bionic siblings walked into Rose Creek High. It was different. It felt strange. Everyone was quiet, and wearing black; as if someone had just died. Chase walked in, and up to one of the girls in the hallway. There were a few tears running down her cheeks. She gave him a weird look as he approached.

"Hi," he said, "I'm Chase,"

"Analisa," she said.

"Wait. Analisa Hattery?"

"Yeah, why?" the girl got defensive, which was natural.

"We're here to help," Chase said, "we're bionic. Like you are,"

"You're here to bring Zen back to life?" she asked hopefully.

"Wait. She's dead?!" Chase asked nervously.

"Yeah. Andy killed her last night, for Cassandra Cogswell,"

"WHAT?!" Chase almost yelled, "where is he?"

"Over there," she pointed to a couple, "making out with Cassandra Cogswell,"

"Ok. You stay here with my brother and sister, and I'm going to talk to Andy,"

She nodded, and moved towards Adam and Bree. Chase pushed through the almost silent crowd, over to Andy and Cassandra. Neither of them noticed him approaching. He stood there for a moment, awkwardly watching them make out. Then he cleared his throat.

Andy opened his eyes, and glanced at Chase. He let go of Cassandra, and looked him over.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"My name is Chase," he extended his hand, "can I have a word, alone,"

Chase shot a glance at Cassandra who gave him a dirty look.

"Baby could you give us a minute?" Andy asked. Cassandra leaned in, and kissed him, then walked away.

"What the hell do you want?" Andy said between his teeth.

"I'm bionic, like you are. I've already talked to Analisa, and I'm here to get you out. Take you to an environment filled with people like yourselves,"

"What about Zen?" Andy asked.

"DIdn't you kill her?" Chase asked.

"Who told you that?" Andy began to panic.

"Analisa," Chase said.

"Well I didn't. She's hiding in my house,"

"We need to go get her. Come on. Now," Chase tan back towards the door. Andy glanced over, and saw Cassandra crying into a teacher's shoulder. Only he knew how fake that was. He looked back at Chase, then began walking towards the front door.

Six bionics walked back into the lab. They had easily gotten Zen from Andy's house, where she was more than happy to go without question. They were all happy to see Donald, and to go down to the second floor of the lab, and finally rest.

"So is that everybody?" Adam asked.

"No. There's still one more," Donald said, "and I saved this one for last for a reason,"

"Why? Who is it?" Bree asked.

"Her name is LIlly. She's been experimented on since she was a little girl. She finally escaped recently, only to be capture by the U.S. government,"

"So she's in government custody?" Chase asked.

"Yes. That's why I saved her for last. I wanted to get the rest of them to safety, just in case things go south,"

"You trust us to do this, Mr. Davenport?" Chase asked, "you're ok with us doing this?"

"No. I'm not ok with you doing this. But I made a promise to myself long ago that I would stop at nothing to save every bionic in the world. And she's the last. I'm not going to break that promise now," Donald said. The siblings nodded. Bree gave her uncle a hug, and left. Adam and Chase nodded at him, then left. Donald looked over at the Johnsons. Maddy was calming her brother down; explaining to him what was going on through the capsule wall. He wasn't going to let anything happen to these to ever again.

The helicopter flew low over the FBI building. It was Andy who was flying it. They had asked if any of the bionics could fly a helicopter; Andy was the only one who'd ever actually flown one. It was dark outside, and all the lights on their helicopter were off. They continued circling around the building. Adam and Bree were standing near the open door, looking down on the capital city.

Chase was in the back with a brand new laptop. He wore gloves over his hands as he broke down firewalls; preparing to cut the power to the entire city.

"I'm ready whenever we pass over the building next,"

"Roger that." Andy said, and turned back towards the FBI building, "alright Chase, do it in five, four, three, two, now,"

Chase it enter on the keyboard. Instantly power began going out in the city. They flew over the building, and Adam and Bree jumped out. They began flying away. Since it was now completely dark, they turned the lights on on the helicopter. Chase closed the door, and Andy flew away from the building.

"Circle the building, but stay close enough that you can get back to it in less than five minutes,"

"You got it," the helicopter turned again. Chase looked down at the dark city, praying his siblings were ok.

He glanced at his laptop, and saw that the power had been restored to the White House. No doubt secret service knew this was not an accident. Chase gulped, and took out his phone.

"Bree," he said when she picked up, "they just got the power to the White House back on,"

"What does that mean?" she whispered.

"It means after they get the lights back on in the Capitol Building and The National Archives, the FBI building is next,"

"How long do we have?" she asked. Chase looked at the screen, and saw that the lights in the Capitol Building were beginning to come back on.

"Five minutes minimum,"

"We need seven,"

"You better hurry then," Chase hung up. Then he looked up. Andy was looking at him expectantly.

"Be over the FBI building in exactly seven minutes with the ladder down. And be prepared to fly away fast when we get there,"

He nodded, and began maneuvering the helicopter through the air.

"Hit the lights on the helicopter," Chase said, "NOW!"

Andy flipped the switch. The all the lights in the helicopter turned off; they were completely invisible. Andy kept a close eye out for any helicopters that may be flying around. There were quite a few now.

"Keep us low. They have searchlights," Chase said, "five minutes,"

"Yes, sir," Andy said, dropping a little lower. They passed over the FBI building.

"Four minutes," Chase counted every last second in his head, nervous for his siblings. He hoped that Adam wasn't stupid enough to shine a light. Use morse code or something.

"Two minutes,"

The helicopter swung around, and began moving towards the FBI building. It began dropping as well. Chase opened the door, and tossed a ladder out. He looked at his laptop. The power was back on in the National Archives. He exhaled, and threw the computer out the door. They flew over the FBI building, and they felt weight on the ladder. Chase looked out. There were only two people there.

"We've gotta go back for Bree," Adam said, "she'll be there in thirty seconds,"

"Andy, turn the copter around!" Chase yelled, "we've gotta get Bree,"

"Roger," the helicopter swung around. Adam began climbing, with someone in his arms. He hoisted a petite girl, with bright white hair into the helicopter. She looked weak. Chase assumed this was LIlly. Adam climbed in after. They were about to pass over the building just as the lights flickered on. They saw Bree on the roof, she was ready to jump. She launched herself off the building, and onto the ladder. She climbed up as fast as she could. Then she gave Chase a hug.

"I'm so glad to see you," she said into his shoulder. Adam shimmied past them, and began pulling the ladder up, and closing the door.

"Get us out of here. Fast," Adam said to Andy. Andy nodded, and flew up higher in the air, moving faster. Bree looked over at the girl laying on the floor of the helicopter.

"She's the last one," Bree said.

"Yeah. I wonder what Mr. Davenport has planned," Chase said.

"Yeah. Seventeen of us. It's almost too dangerous to have us all in the same place,"

"Almost. But as long as we keep our heads straight, we'll be fine,"

"Override app ready?"

"It'll always be ready,"

"Good," Bree smiled, then relaxed her shoulders. She exhaled, and closed her eyes. She knew this might be her last chance for a good night's sleep for a while.
