Chapter 9.
Chase's POV.
School was much harder without my enhanced intelligence. I must've gotten half the questions wrong on a pop quiz and school felt...boring. I seriously needed my bionics back. I grabbed my lunch from the cafeteria and sat down at the table with Adam, Bree and Leo. As soon as I sat down, Adam and Bree grabbed their food and left to sit with their friends.
"Leo, do you know why Adam and Bree are avoiding me?" I asked.
"What? They aren't avoiding you!" Leo said in a high pitched voice that indicated he was lying.
"They haven't talked to me all day, they wouldn't acknowledge me when I helped Adam off the floor when he walked into the wall and Adam hasn't hurt me or made a short joke at my expense all day. Not saying that last one is a bad thing but still. Do you anything about this Leo?" I asked.
"No." Leo said.
"Leo, spill. You are a terrible liar." I said.
"Fine! They are mad because you now have they're abilities and now they are resenting you because they think that you will replace them." Leo explained.
"Um, about that. Douglas and Davenport removed my chip until they can remove the abilities." I explained.
"So you aren't super smart anymore?" Leo asked.
I shook my head no.
"So you think school is a waste of time now?" He asked.
"No. I just think that it should be more fun. What is happening to me?!" I yelled as I crossed my arms and put my head on them. (A/N remember is Simulation manipulation when Chase did that when Mr. Davenport refused his request for a new team? That's what I mean by that.)
"Chase. Chill out. Even if your freak out is one of the best things I have ever seen, you seriously need to calm down." Leo said.
"You're right." I said as I sat up.
"Did you just say I am right?" Leo asked.
"Yeah. But I don't have my chip so don't get a big head over it." I said witch made Leo slump in his seat.
I saw Bree laughing her head off with Caitlin and Lindsey. I needed to talk to her and explain the fact that Mr. Davenport and Douglas took out my chip and they are trying to remove the abilities on it. I walked over to her and tapped her shoulder, but she continued talking like I didn't exist until Caitlin said something about me. Bree turned around and glared at me.
"What do you want Chase?" Bree asked with pure disgust when she said my name.
"I need to explain something to you." I said.
"I don't wanna hear it. I am busy, so go bother someone else." Bree said as she turned back around to her friends and started talking about Eric.
I stormed back to my table when I was stopped by Trent.
"Hey Trent." I tried to say calmly, but you could hear the fear in my voice.
"Come with me. I need to talk to you about something." Trent said as he grabbed my arm.
I obviously didn't have a choice so I didn't fight him. Then Macy came over to us.
"Trent? Where are you taking Chase?" She asked.
"None of your business Macy." Trent said.
"Fine. But if I find out you hurt him, I will not hesitate to make sure that you are in trouble with mom and dad." Macy said. Then she whispered in my ear. "Stay safe." And walked away.
Trent and I exited the school and he shoved me into his black grand prix, and you could tell it was used. I tried to get out, but the doors were locked and I couldn't get them open.
"Where are you taking me Trent? You do know that this is considered kidnapping." I demanded through my gritted teeth.
"Oh, I completely forgot about this." Trent said as he clicked a button on his dashboard.
Suddenly metal restraints popped out and wrapped around me. I struggled to get out of them, but they just got tighter.
"Who are you?! I am 100 percent sure that this is not in Trent's wheelhouse!" I yelled.
He simply put his fingers to his neck and I flipped out at the sight.
Derek Darkins had just kidnapped me again.
So Chase has been kidnapped again. Will Adam and Bree save him? Will they resent him? How long will Chase be able to defend himself against Derek since he doesn't have bionics?
Wow, just gave you guys a ton of things to think about for the next while.
Over and out.
Susz.
