Kihonne: Hey guys. Can you believe that this is the last chapter of The Facility? To be completely honest, I never expected to make it this far with this story. But over 60, 000 words later, here we are. So, for the final time, shoutouts!

Xxx

MoonlitShadowsoftheHumanSoul: Yes, the finale. But a sequel will come, I promise. Oh, and thanks for being one of my regular reviewers. Your input meant a lot.

Evelyn: You're welcome! I'm glad you liked the Chivyanna kiss so much! And don't worry, this may be the end of the Facility, but my characters' stories are far from done.

RissA15: I'm glad you liked it so much, but don't worry about the fangirls. Chase and Vivyanna are both hiding and I've already got people working on rebuilding.

Ausslykickforever21: I'm glad you liked it so much.

AwesomeWriter2013: I'm sorry if I confused you, but I can't explain. Sorry. Anyway, I'm glad you liked the last chapter and I hope you like this one just as much.

JesusFreak17: I'm glad you liked it so much! I do plan on giving both Adam and Rhyder a little more focus in the sequel, but this story was mainly on Vivyanna, Chase, Bree, and Marcus.

DFTBAAIDLLTWBAP: I'm glad you loved it! I really enjoyed writing the Leo parts, and of course, the kiss. I hope you like this chapter just as much. DFTBA!

Kmb rocks: Here's your update.

Anonymous1201: I'm glad you liked it!

AllAmericanSlurp: Yes, the feels! I had to fill it with feels! And don't worry about reviews (just updating will take forever once school starts for me). Anyway, I'm glad you loved the story.

Aerielle: I'm glad you loved it so much!

Guest: …okay.

Kihonne: Anyway, since this is the last chapter, everyone!

Everyone: KIHONNE DOESN'T OWN LAB RATS OR ANYTHING YOU RECOGNIZE FROM THE STORY. SHE JUST OWNS US, HER OCS, THIS STORY, AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE!

Vivyanna's POV

I blinked my eyes open to see the bright light of the sun shining in through the open window. I sat up and walked over to the window, leaning against its frame, smiling.

I'm never going to get enough of this. I thought to myself, taking in the scenery. I'd spent almost my entire life locked away from the sun. Now that I had the freedom to enjoy it everyday, I never wanted the sun to go down.

It had been three days since the Founders' deaths. For all of us who'd been prisoners, everything had changed. For the first time in our lives, we had the freedom we'd always prayed for.

Currently, all of us were staying at one of Davenport's old warehouses for the time being. It was actually a pretty cool place with everything any of us could hope for. It was fully stocked with food, there were soft beds to sleep on, and we spent the majority of our time outside just because we could. But we weren't going to stay here long, no matter how amazing the place was.

When we had left the Facility, everything was a mess. The remaining agents had fled, their bosses all dead. Maybank was no where to be found, unfortunately. After all those years of abuse, we'd wanted to return the favour. But he must have run sometime during the fights. But with no one to tell him what to do and since his army of agents was done for, he was no more threatening to us than a cockroach. Either way, I wish I'd be able to see him run for his life with his tail between his legs.

Chase, being a true lover of technology, had insisted that we stop by the control room so he could access the computer. He wanted to get any type of data available, especially details on that serum my father had given me. Although the computer had nothing on there about the serum, it did hold all of our information. Everything the government had on us was on those computers. Without it, they didn't even know we existed.

"If we delete this, if we destroy any evidence of us from the government systems, we won't have to hide anymore." He had said, eyes lighting up hopefully. So he and his father spent hours carefully hacking into the US government's main frame, destroying any evidence of our existence. When we told the others the news, they were ecstatic.

And who could blame them? We now had the chance to actually have normal lives. We could go to school, get jobs, LIVE for the first time since we'd been taken. This was more than any of us could have ever hoped for. It was so perfect, so incredible, that I almost didn't believe it to be true.

Davenport and his wife Tasha were so kind too; doing everything they could to help us. I think they felt that they owed us, since we'd been helping Adam, Bree, and Chase inside the Facility. Which was kind of unfair, since they'd helped us more than we had them.

Since the government no longer knew we existed, we didn't have to go on the run again. Obviously we couldn't go back to our old lives (that would just be plain stupid) but we could begin new ones.

I suppose we could have gone back to our roots, but did we really want to? Rhyder's parents had died during his stay at the Facility, Alex didn't really know where his parents were now, and Douglas and my father were both dead. Roxy and I had been born in Wisconsin, but we had no reason to go back now.

So, our new destination was New York. It was a logical choice, actually. The city was pretty big, so a few new faces wouldn't be all that noticeable. Rhyder had an aunt that lived in Manhattan, so he at least had somewhere to go live. Roxanna's eighteenth birthday was in less than a month, so she could get an apartment for the two of us pretty soon. Our old friend Sarah, who had contacted me the same day as we had escaped, had offered to take Alex in. He was the same age as her little sister, so he'd always have someone to play with.

As for Marcus, the Davenports had immediately offered to have him live with them. None of us were that surprised when he said yes. And because it would be way too noticeable if they moved back California, they were also heading to the big apple.

So, in the next few weeks, we'd all be moving the big city. Just another big change in our upcoming lives. Not that any of us were complaining about the changes.

However, there were some things that I didn't think would ever change. Like how Alex would seek me out after having a bad dream. Or how Leo refused to give up on the possibility that Roxanna might find him attractive (she didn't). Speaking of whom…

"Vivyanna?" There was a knock on my door. Roxanna opened the door a second later, dressed in a brand new pair of jeans and a white T-shirt. Tasha had insisted on taking the two of us shopping with Bree, claiming that we all needed a "girl's day out". Bree and Roxanna had enjoyed it, but I really couldn't care less. So long as I wasn't wearing a uniform from the Facility, I didn't care what clothes I owned. "You awake?"

I rolled my eyes. "No, I'm sleepwalking." I replied sarcastically.

She smirked. "Yeah well, Leo's mom is making breakfast. You coming?"

"Yeah." I followed her down the hall into the kitchen part of our temporary home. Leo and Alex were sitting at the table, both devouring their plates of pancakes. Rhyder and Adam were playing a game of paper football at the counter while Davenport and Tasha were talking. I think they were chatting about groceries, judging by the way Tasha was gesturing at the half-empty fridge. Chase was sitting on the couch, away from the others, eyes focused on a laptop.

I grabbed a plate full of food (pancakes, bacon, and eggs) and walked over to him. "What's up?" I asked, sitting down next to him. He smiled at me in greeting, then gestured at his screen.

"Mr. Davenport thought it would be a good idea for us all to get passports, just in case the government come after us." He explained. "And since Sarah's coming to pick Alex up soon, I thought it would be a good idea to make his first."

"That's smart." I commented, taking a couple of bites. "Damn, Tasha makes good food."

Chase looked at me like I was crazy. "You're joking, right?" He questioned. I shook my head before eating a little more. "Her food is terrible! I can't think of anything that's worse."

I could tell that he was at least half-joking, if not completely, but I still decided to respond. "The Facility stuff was worse." I reminded him. He thought about it.

"I guess." He agreed. "By the way, have you and Roxy found an apartment yet?"

I frowned, then looked over my shoulder at my sister. She was sitting next to Adam, flipping through one of Tasha's old magazines. "Roxy?" I called. She looked up from the page she was on. "Apartment status?"

"We move in next week." She replied. I nodded, then looked back at Chase.

"You're only stuck with us for another week." I told him. He sighed.

"That soon? Mr. Davenport's got a place for our entire family, but we don't get it for another month." He complained. "Wait, how'd you get the money for an apartment anyway?"

"Your dad." I replied. "You know, for a scientist, he's not actually that bad. He offered to pay every penny."

"Seriously?" Chase looked surprised. I nodded.

"Yeah, but he also said that if I set anything on fire, I have to replace it myself." I told him. He smirked. "Quick question: how come he didn't warn Roxy not to freeze anything? She's just as bad as I am."

"No, she's not." Chase objected instantly. I glared at him. "But hey, I like hot messes."

I rolled my eyes. "Jerk." I grumbled under my breath. Suddenly, I realized that something was missing. Make that two somethings. "Hold up."

"What's wrong?" Chase frowned, confused. I looked around.

"Where's Robo-boy and your sister?" I questioned suspiciously. Chase frowned and looked for them.

"Still asleep?" He suggested. Suddenly, Alex was at my side, looking at Chase's computer.

"Hey, when you take my picture for the passport, can you please take my good side?" he requested. I groaned. Clearly, Leo had been rubbing off on him. "And I can go wake Bree and Marcus, if you want."

Before either of us could answer, he had sped away. "That kid has way too much energy for his own good." Chase muttered. I laughed.

"You think this is bad? Yesterday, I caught him trying to run on water." I informed him. Chase looked at me, intrigued.

"Really?" He asked, curious. I nodded.

"Yeah. He actually made it pretty far, but then he tripped and fell in. Rhyder had to use his powers to pull him out of the water." I told him. He frowned.

"Where was I during all this?" Chase questioned, confused.

"Adam was trying to convince you to let him bury you in the sand, remember?" I finished off my plate of food and put it down on the table across from us.

"Oh yeah." Chase nodded, a smirk on his face. He looked past me and frowned. "Everything alright, Alex?"

I turned around to see Alex walking back to us, a wide smirk on his face. He nodded, still grinning.

"What happened?" I asked, confused. His grin grew.

"I'd tell you, but I'm pretty sure they'd kill me if I did." He replied. Chase and I exchanged looks, both of us guessing what Alex had seen.

Marcus' POV

"I can't believe it." Bree murmured suddenly. We were both sitting on the beach, watching the waves hit the shore. It was kinda boring, I admit, but it had to be better than watching Leo hit on Roxanna in the kitchen.

"Can't believe what?" I asked, glancing at Bree.

"Everything. That we're free, that we can actually have normal lives again, that…" She trailed off, shaking her head. I smirked.

"That Chase has a girlfriend?" I added jokingly. She smirked.

"Yeah, that one caught us all by surprise." She agreed. She looked at me. "I can't believe you're here too."

"What do you mean?" I asked, confused. She smiled.

"Well, before all this, we thought you were dead. And even then, the fact that you and Leo have been living in the same house for the past three days and neither of you has tried to kill each other yet is incredible." She told me sincerely. I laughed.

"Yeah, well I've been trying to be good. Don't want to get kicked out or anything." I replied. Bree looked at me.

"Mr. Davenport and Tasha wouldn't do that." She told me. I shrugged.

"Leo might convince them too. In case you haven't noticed, he doesn't like me much." I reminded her. She suddenly grabbed my hand, causing me to look at her in surprise.

"Well I like you, so Leo can just deal with it." She told me. With a sudden boost of confidence, I leaned forward and pressed my lips to hers. The kiss was soft and sweet and her lips tasted just like I'd always dreamed they would.

I pulled away after a few moments. Bree's cheeks had gone red, surprise evident in her eyes. To my surprise, she was very quiet for a while. "Sorry." I muttered eventually, ducking my head in embarrassment. Bree let out a light laugh, grabbed my chin and lifted my head so she could kiss me. And this kiss was better than the last.

"Bree? Marcus?" Alex chose that moment to speed into the room. He skidded to a stop as we pulled away, his eyes wide. "Am I interrupting something?"

"Damn little cock-blocker." I muttered under my breath, glaring at him. Bree just laughed again.

"What did you need, Alex?" She asked, her tone patient. He chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his head.

"Nothing really. Chase and Vivy noticed that you guys were gone, so I offered to look for you." He replied. He turned to leave, but not before calling over his shoulder. "Carry on!"

"Seriously, Alex?" I complained as the boy sped away, back into the house. Bree smirked and got up, still holding my hand.

"We should probably go inside anyway." She sighed. I got up, but pulled her back towards me before she could head into the building. I kissed her again quickly, one hand on her back to stop her from pulling away.

"Now, we can go inside." I breathed once I pulled away.

Chase's POV

"My turn!" Alex exclaimed, reaching for the dice. It was around noon by now, and we were all bored, so Leo had suggest board games. So here we were, sitting in the middle of the floor, with a Monopoly game in the center. And if you think Monopoly takes forever with just four people, you should try it with nine. Because there weren't enough pieces, Leo had to use a bottle cap as his character.

"This is pathetic." Vivyanna complained, watching as Alex moved his character, the top hat, to GO. Roxanna looked at her sister, then shook her head.

"Says the person in last place." She commented. "You weren't thinking that when you were winning."

"And how would you know what I was thinking?" Vivyanna challenged. Roxanna grinned.

"I can read your mind." She joked, placing her fingers to her temple. Vivyanna smirked.

"So what am I thinking now?" She challenged. Roxanna closed her eyes and grinned.

"You're thinking that I'm the prettier sister." She replied. Vivyanna laughed.

"Not even close." She replied, smirking. I looked at Marcus and we exchanged grins. I couldn't think of a time when the girls had been this cheerful, especially not Vivyanna.

Suddenly, three pairs of footsteps reached my ears. I turned to see Mr. Davenport, Tasha, and a tall, blonde twenty year old girl enter the room. "Oh, hey Sarah. Did you just get here?" I asked, smiling at the lady. She nodded.

"Yeah, and might I add, it's a pretty cool island." She smiled back at me, then at the others. "So, who's winning?"

"Me." Alex grinned proudly, showing her his money. Sarah nodded.

"Nice job, little man." She sighed. "I hate to break this little party up, but Alex, I'm afraid we have to go."

Alex sighed and nodded. He started to get up, but then sped over to Vivyanna and gave her a hug. "You'll visit, right?"

Vivyanna smiled and gave him a small hug back. "Of course I will, Quicky. Who else am I going to get into trouble every week?"

He laughed, then said his goodbyes to the rest of us. I sighed, knowing that this was the last time our group of friends would be together for a while. But while we may not all be together all the time, like we had for the past few weeks, we still had each other's backs.

And with Maybank still out there, I had a feeling, we would need to keep each other close.

Kihonne: The story started in Chase's POV, it's only fitting that it end that way too. Anyway, it's been a blast writing this story for you guys. I really enjoyed it and I'm sad to see that it's coming to a close.

But worry not, there's a sequel planned for the future. Maybank's Revenge! I don't know when I'm going to be able to post it – school starts in a couple of weeks, so it's going to be busy – but I know you guys are going to like it. Hopefully, I'll see you all soon.
