Chapter 1
Chase's POV
As I was driving home from the supermarket I was pondering over the last few years. They had been difficult; no doubt. Mr Davenport and Tasha had split up over Mr Davenport's career. Tasha had stormed out saying that he loved his inventions more than her.
Leo had moved out a few weeks after saying that he didn't feel comfortable. I didn't blame Leo for what happened but he had said it was too awkward and that he'd stay in touch with us. I have his mobile number in my phone somewhere but the most we hear from each other are Christmas and birthday cards, with the occasional email.
Adam left two years ago to move on with his football career, I hardly see my brother anymore, when I usually call he only speaks with me for a few minutes or just doesn't pick up. I miss him so much sometimes I sleep in his capsule.
Bree had moved out to live with her boyfriend not long after Adam, saying something about a once in a lifetime opportunity for a modelling career. Again, the last I heard from her was when she changed her mobile and she had sent me the new number. That was six months ago.
Mr Davenport wasn't the same either. Since Tasha broke his heart he only focused on me taking over Davenport industries and training me to be his successor. He wasn't the happy go lucky humorous man I knew five years ago. He was constantly depressed. More than once I've found him crying in the lab, alone. During those moments I'd sit with him and let him talk to me and then the next day he'd pretend nothing had happened. He's looking older and older by the day.
It feels like nothing is the same anymore.
I drove onto the drive and grabbed the bags. As a approached the door I noticed that it was open, strange, I was sure I locked it and Mr Davenport hardly goes outside...
I went in and I saw mess. The sofa was over turned and papers with my ideas for inventions were ripped and littered all over the floor. I dropped the bags and looked at Eddy's screen, which had been cracked.
I ran down to the lab, everything was trashed, the capsules, the computers, everything. I looked around for any evidence. I found blood on the floor, I scanned it and the DNA in the blood was Mr Davenports.
Mr Davenport...
"Mr Davenport!" I yelled through the house. I rang him on his mobile while running around the house. Nothing. I started to panic a little, there was blood, everything was trashed...
I closed my eyes and tried to calm down but I just couldn't.
I did the only thing that I could think of...
I dialled Adam's number, then Leo, then Bree. It was time for a family reunion.
