Dear Sara! Yes, Lucas will have a Flashback. Yes, Lucas is not talking because he don't wont to remember what happened and he is in shock. Yes, you all will find out what happened to his parents. I will not tell you something about the scientists, maybe if i said anything you would not read my story, because you would know everything. And I want you to read it :).*g*

***************************************************************************

It was three a clock in the morning and all the off duty crew lay sleeping in their beds. Like the rest Lucas was sleeping, but he rolled from one side of his bed to the other. It was not a good dream.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Flashback, 9 ½ month earlier.

Lucas sat at his computer, wearing headphones, his stereo playing loud rock music as he worked on the Vocoder program. Suddenly the music stopped in the middle of a song, the teenager turned around and directly looked into an old gun.

"W. what do you want?" He asked afraid.

The muscular man made a few stepps in Lucas direction. He wore black clothes, his face was covered with a black ski mask and he wore black sunglasses.

The man pulled the headphones off and took the teenager by his arm holding the gun on him the whole time. "Come."

The boy did what he was told. They went downstairs to the entry hall of the Wolenczak home. In the hall there were two other men also completly dressed in black with guns aimed at his parents.

The muscular man who held Lucas began to talk. "What is it Wolenczak? You will give us the password, who do we have to kill first your wife or your son?"

Dr. Wolenczak shook his head. "Let my family go. I'll never give you the password. Never! I know what you want to do with my formula, and I can't let such a thing happen."

The muscular men nodded to a very tall man.

The tall man held his gun at the head of Lucas mother Cynthia and fired.

Cynthia fell to the floor without a movement.

"Noooooooo, Mum." The teenager screamed with tears in his eyes.

Immediately the man tried to stop the boy from screaming and held his hand over Lucas mouth. "Shut your mouth."

The teenager bit as hard as he could.

"Ah!" Immediately the hand was taken away from Lucas mouth. The legs of the boy felt like jelly. He fell to the floor.

"The little bastard bit me. It hurts like hell and I'm bleeding."

A chubby man stepped to the bleeding man and gave him a big handkerchief. He wrapped it around his hand, so that no blood could drop to the floor or anything else.

The muscular man stepped again to Lucas and looked at him very angrily. "You will pay for this." He kicked at the teenager.

Lucas rolled to his other side in pain.

Dr. Wolenczak couldn't watch this. "Let my son go."

The muscular man who had kicked the boy let go of Lucas and turned around and smiled. "How cute. I'll tell you one thing, you give us the password, and we won't touch your son and will let go of him alive."

Lawrence bit his lip, he was torn about what to do. He wanted to give them the password to protect his son. He wanted it so much. But he couldn't do it. When they had the password they would get the formula. This formula was evil. It was able to kill all life on the planet. He couldn't tell them the password. "You'll never get the password from me"

The three men looked at Lawrence's face, they knew he spoke the truth. They would never be able to get the password from him. The muscular man had an idea, he smiled and turned again to the teenager. "So Lawrence, maybe your son can help us." He looked at Lucas from his standing position. "We know what you can do with a computer. You have the choice, you can hack the password and give it to us, or we will do the same thing to your dad that we did to your mother. What do you say, it's your choice."

Lucas despairingly looked at his father. The teenager knew which formula the men wanted and he knew how dangerous the formula was. His Dad had told him about the formula for one reason, if anything happened to Lawrence, Lucas had to destroy the formula.

Dr. Wolenczak looked pleading at his only child. "You are not allowed to tell them the password. It's not important what happens to me, what's important is that they don't get the formula. Don't give the password to them."

The chubby man aimed his gun at Lawrence. The muscular man turned to Lucas. "It's your choice. Do you protect the life of your dad or will you let him die? Will you give us the password?"

The teenager closed his eyes and shook his head.

Lawrence was glad. He knew he could trust his son. "Promise me, do not speak ab."

A shot was heard in the villa, Dr. Wolenczak fell to the floor, just like his wife, he was dead at the moment he was shot.

Lucas opened his eyes, he felt something in him breaking, he wasn't able to scream. Tears stopped running down his face.

Now all the three men turned to the teenager. Like all the times before the muscular man was the only one who spoke. "Give us the password or you're dead."

Lucas shook his head. He wouldn't let his father down. He had promised. Like his father had said, the formula was important, not their lives.

"Are you sure?" The man asked and aimed the gun on Lucas.

Closing his eyes, the teenager nodded his head again, he was totally sure.

The next thing the boy felt was the bullet as it tore into his chest, the force of it throwing him into the wall. Then everything went black.

When Lucas awoke, the men weren't there anymore. From this point where he was laying, he was able to see his dead parents. His pain was unbelievable and he was so cold from the loss of blood.

End of Flashback

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Lucas sat up frightened, a silent scream on his lips. Everything was there again. It was like it had happened a second time. The dream had been so real.

As he sat there trying to slow down his breathing, it slowly dawned on the teenager why he has had this strange feeling the whole evening. The whole time a bell had been ringing in his head. The murderers of his parents were here. Here on the seaQuest.

The boy stood up and looked at his watch. It was 3:45 in the morning. He had been knowing the Captain long enough to be sure, that he wouldn't be angry for waking him up. Lucas took his bathrobe and left his cabin.

The teenager felt like he was knocking at the cabin door of the Captain for ages.

A tired Captain Bridger opened the door. When Nathan saw Lucas he became fully awake. He could read in Lucas' face that something was wrong. "Hey Kiddo, what happened, come in." The Captain took the boy gently by his arm and led him to a chair. The face of the teenager was so pale. "Have a seat, before you fall down."

Thankfully Lucas eased in to the chair himself. But how could he tell the whole thing to the Captain? How should he explain this? He watched as Bridger sat across from him. There was just one thing he could do.
