Notes: Oh, um, well I don't know any places so I made up a little Island- Cape Hope, so if there really is a Cape Hope, oops. Oh, and a nothing thing- I don't know what Lucas's mother's name is? I read in some fics that it is Cynthia Holt (while now it's Wolenczak,) But it's the same name as Kirsten's child? SO I really don't know, but since it's my fic, I am gonna call her - Jennifer

Well, everything shall be explained in the chapter, hope you like it. I just want to quickly say a HUGE thanks to:

Nina, Dolphinology, Fiona, Amanda, Angeleyes, Sam, TeacherTam

You guys rule, I really mean it. Thank you.

The trip to Cape Hope was extremely long for Lucas, he was the only person on the SeaQuest that was depressed. Everyone else were planning their three week holiday, while Ben and the other's were excited to finally meet the Wolenzcak's in person, not to mention the week off afterwards.

Once they arrived at Cape Hope, a small fishing boat was waiting for Bridger and the others.

Nathan didn't exactly like the idea of travelling in a small fishing boat, but he knew it would be best specially since they didn't want anyone else to know that they were there.

The trip was short, as Ben, Katie, Ford, Kirsten, Tim, Miguel, Lucas and Nathan found themselves on the shore of an small island near Cape Hope. It was a size of a small town, almost like Bridger's little Island.

Ben looked at Lucas who had been sulking since the moment they found out it was his folks.

They looked around, there wasn't anything really interesting. Nature grew all around them, however there was a path leading into the jungle.

"I think we must go through the path?" Ben said as he pointed to the small path.

"No, you think?" Lucas said sarcastically.

Everyone looked at Lucas. Every since they found out it was the Wolenzcak's, Lucas turned mean. If anyone so much as look at him funny, they would be shouted at, criticized, making him a person to avoid.

Lucky for Lucas, that Ben was a very relaxed guy, who could take more than anyone else, but even now Ben felt like shouting at Lucas to grow up.

Nathan saw Ben stiffen, as if to reach out and strangle Lucas.

"Ben, why don't you help Kirsten with the bags?" Nathan offered.

Ben nodded, as he took a deep breathe trying to get a hold of his anger.

Everyone noticed, so they quickly picked up their bags while Nathan pushed Lucas to a side.

"Lucas, look I know that you aren't happy, but I want your attitude to change," Nathan warned.

Lucas signed.

"Sorry, it's just that I really don't want to see them," Lucas said honestly.

"Look, it's just for a week, and you have Ben, and me, so you don't have to be alone," Nathan said.

Lucas nodded.

"Ok, now I want you to apologise to Ben, then I want you to take us up," Nathan said.

Lucas nodded.

Nathan gave Lucas a small hug before returning to the others. Lucas walked slowly behind Nathan, heading straight for Ben.

"Ben, everyone, I'm sorry," Lucas said.

Everyone looked at Lucas, then to Ben, who wasn't looking very happy.

Lucas looked at Ben with pleading eyes, hoping that he didn't ruin his friendship.

Ben could see the turmoil in Lucas's eyes, he just couldn't take it anymore.

"Come here you little rascal," Ben said as he grabbed Lucas, holding him in a chokehold position.

"Ben, Ben, let me go....BEN!" Lucas yelled as he struggled to get free.

Everyone relaxed as they watched the two fight on.

"Ok, Ben let him go, we have a mission to do," Nathan said with a smile.

Ben released Lucas. Lucas's face was bright red, but the thing that made everyone happy was his smile.

Kirsten looked back to the route.

"I didn't expect it to look like this," she said.

"Well, they wanted it too look like there's nothing here," Lucas explained.

"Well that will explain it," Ben teased.

Everyone shock their heads as they gathered their stuff and headed into the dark, deep jungle.

Half an hour later, it cleared up, revealing a mansion.

"Wow," Miguel said as he saw the huge place.

"Is that a hotel?" Ben asked.

"No, it's their home," Lucas answered.

Nathan frowned when Lucas mentioned that it was their home, not his.

"Do you come here?" Kirsten asked.

"Well, when my father isn't working with the Power Plant, he is working here. My mother often comes here to do her work here. Sometimes I come here, when I get told, otherwise I would normally go back to the other house in the city," Lucas explained.

Everyone listened, as they admired the house.

It was huge, almost like a hotel, it had large grey walls, not that many windows though. It looked like a building that you didn't want to enter, it just send negative vibes following from it. It made everyone feel unwelcome.

Ben shuddered, starting to understand why Lucas's didn't want to come to this place.

"Well, come on," Lucas said as he started to walk towards the house.

Everyone followed.

No one came to greet them, it was if no one was on the island.

"Where's everyone?" Ford asked.

"Well, the parents will be in the labs, and the whole place has camera's. See you need the password to enter, without it, you set everything off," Lucas answered.

Everyone was amazed.

They followed Lucas towards the big wooden doors. Once they got there they saw a alarm system.

They watched as Lucas quickly entered the password, then stood closer so that it could scan his eye.

"Dam," Ben said as he saw how high tech everything was.

They watched as the doors opened, revealing a huge hall way. Everyone walked into the cold hall. It was bare, a few paintings, one or two table's with vases on them. On the right, there was a staircase, leading to the second floor, but otherwise it looked abandoned.

"You sure we are at the right place?" Tim asked.

"Yip," Lucas answered.

They heard footsteps coming from down the stairs, they looked to see a woman, in her late thirties. She had blond hair that was neatly tied behind in a bun, she had soft blue eyes, she wore a blue skirt and a soft green top, over all that a lab coat, which covered her slim body.

Behind her was a man, who everyone recognised as Lawrence, he had short brown hair, he wore a blue shirt, with brown pants.

"Who are you?" the woman asked.

"You are the one who called us, mother," Lucas answered.

"Mrs Wolenczak, I'm Captain Nathan Bridger, and this is my crew, Commander Ford, Doctor Westphalen, Lt O'Neill, Ortiz, Krieg, Hitchcock and Lucas," Nathan introduced.

"Ah, Captain, I want you to meet my wife, Jennifer," Lawrence introduced.

Everyone nodded.

"Lucas, what are you doing here?" Jennifer asked in surprise.

Lucas signed,

"I'm here with the SeaQuest," he replied.

"The what? aren't you supposed to be in university?" she asked.

The crew looked at Jennifer dumfounded.

"I finished two years ago, Remember?" Lucas asked.

Jennifer looked a bit confused, but she just shrugged then turned to leave.

"Jennifer!" Lawrence growled.

Jennifer turned to Lawrence,

"What?" she asked angrily.

"Excuse us," Lawrence said as he pushed passed everyone, as he forced Jennifer to the side.

The crew didn't know what to do, they were shocked at the scene, now they all knew why Lucas didn't want to come.

They watched as the talking turned into shouting.

"YOU DON'T EVEN CARE!" Lawrence shouted.

"OH, AND YOU DO?" Jennifer yelled sarcastically.

"STOP IT!" Lucas yelled.

Jennifer and Lawrence fell silent as they turned to see the shocked expressions on the crew members, then to their angry son.

"Mom, why don't you go to the lab, Dad, I want you to go to the other side. Now I am going to show the crew where they are going to stay, then I'll come to the lab. Once I get there I want you two, to act like adults," Lucas ordered.

Jennifer's face went bright red in anger.

"Fine!" she snapped as she left.

"Sorry about that," Lawrence said as he turned to leave.

Lucas closed his eyes, this was going to be the longest week of his life. He felt everyone staring at him. At that moment, he wished the earth would swallow him right then and there.
