Chapter Twelve;
Today, December 24th at 11 o'clock, Chase was sitting inside the upstairs bathroom crying hysterically. One hour until Christmas and the others were wide awake. But today, Chase wasn't exactly excited for the 'best holiday'. In fact, Chase was about ready to end his own life and had no regret in what he was about to do. The young teenager got up from the floor and locked the door. Next Chase opened the cabinet and saw the Tylenol bottle that was 500 mg, opened the bottle and dumped around 50 pills into his hands. Without hesitation Chase swallowed them and then started crying.
I'm ending my life today. The world will finally be happy. This is the best thing I'll ever do. You're nothing. Those were the thoughts of poor Chase Davenport and a few minutes later everything went black.
--Time skip; One hour later, 12:00 AM; Christmas Day.--
Tasha's POV:
Everything was perfect, except I don't feel the presence of my 'step son' Chase. I quickly go upstairs and check in the guest bed and see no Chase, so I decide to go to the lab and check if he is sleeping in his capsule. When I go to the lab and see no Chase I get worried and go back upstairs. I then demand the others to go look for Chase, Adam, Donald and I went upstairs while Bree and Leo looked for him in the other floors of the house. "Chase honey, where are you?" I ask loudly and Adam runs towards the bathroom door. "Chasey if you don't open this door in five seconds, I'll break this door down!" Adam yelled. He quickly broke down the door with his super strength and what I saw inside was horrific. "CHASEY, WAKE UP!" Adam said and I quickly ran to Chase and tried to shake him awake but nothing. I then see a Tylenol 500 mg bottle and see some pills scattered all over the floor. "BREE, LEO CALL 911 QUICKLY" I yell and start crying. "Honey there is no time to wait for ambulance, Bree will super speed Adam, Chase and I to the hospital and then pick you and Leo up" my husband said and picked Chase up and demanded Bree to super speed them to the hospital. In less than a minute Bree appears again and takes Leo and I to the hospital and I see Donald rushing with Chase in his hands and demands immediate care. They quickly put Chase in a stretcher and take him to a room. It took only five minutes until the doctor came back to us and gave us horrific information. "I'm sorry to inform you, we tried everything we can but Chase passed away", At that point I felt tears in my eyes as pain and guilt circulated inside me. "How did Chase pass away?" Bree asked with pain in her voice and tears in her eyes. "Chase overdosed on over 50 500 mg tylenol pills which is equal to about 25,000 mg" the doctor said. At that point I broke into tears and the doctor let us say our goodbyes to Chase. We went inside room 422, where Chase was and saw him lying unconscious. It honestly broke my soul to see him like this. "Chase, I know I wasn't your biological mom but I will always love you" I said to him and hysterically crying, that I had to step out. I sat down in the chairs crying for ten minutes until Donald, Adam, Bree, and Leo came out the room in tears in their eyes, "It's time to go, I'll arrange the funeral and burial at home" Donald said and I nodded as we got into our car and drove home devastated from what happened today.
