Hello again! So it's not quite nighttime yet, but I couldn't wait to update! So here you go, a little early! Same as the first chapter, mostly stuff from the show, just from Chase's POV. But it has an alternate ending! Yay! Man, I can't tell you how many times I watched this scene (and the one from Chapter 1) so I could get everything right! I listened to Leo's line so many times that I can now say it word for word, just as fast as he can!

Thank you all so much for the kind reviews! I woke up this morning to twelve emails telling me I had new followers, favorites, and reviews. You guys are great! I don't have time to reply to them all right now, but I just have to say something to shinxshinx1595: . . . O.o . . . You're scaring me! You psychic or something? But shh . . . spoiler alert!

Anyway, thanks for the enthusiasm, glad you guys like the story! Onto Chapter 3! Whoops, one more thing: pretend Chase didn't download Adam's "Incredible Edibles."

I don't own Lab Rats, because if I did this story would have been "Avalanche: Part 2."

* * * Chase's POV * * *

"Ow!" Douglas cried out as he got electrocuted. I looked up from where I was standing at the cyberdesk.

"The download is almost finished," I reported.

"Three more minutes and I can give you everything Adam and Bree have, plus the capacity for more!" We chuckled together. Douglas went behind me to do one more thing.

I heard the doors to the lab whoosh open and my smile fell. "Don't give up, guys," Mr. Davenport was saying, "there's still a chance we could find him." Then Mr. Davenport saw me and exclaimed, "Chase!"

"You're alive!" Bree said. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Douglas stepping out from behind me.

"It's evil Uncle Daddy!" Adam gasped. I was almost tempted to crack a smile. But I held myself together as Douglas let out a laugh.

"Back away from him, Chase," Mr. Davenport said coolly. I didn't obey.

"It's too late, Donald," Douglas said. "He's with me now." My father grabbed my shoulder and pulled me to him. I allowed an evil smile to creep up my face.

"What?" Mr. Davenport said, incredulous.

"Chase, what's going on?" Bree asked. Was it my imagination, or was there actually concern in her voice?

"It's true," Douglas assured them. "I've finally taken back what was stolen from me!" He jerked my shoulder to make a point.

All of a sudden Leo rushed into the lab, holding Mr. Davenport's new cryoblaster. "Alright Big D, I know I'm not supposed to touch your stuff, but you know how sometimes things happen and sometimes things happen when you really don't want them to happen and that just happens to be what just happened, upstairs." Then Leo caught sight of Douglas and screamed.

"Whatever you're up to Douglas, you're not going to get away with it," Mr. Davenport said. I couldn't help but think about how cliché that sounded.

The cyberdesk beeped. "I just did!" Douglas said, walking over and taking out a flash drive. "The download's finished! I now have the power to give Chase all three bionic abilities, and now no one will be able to stop us!" Douglas laughed.

This was the deciding moment for me. I could easily overpower Douglas right now. But did I want to? I could see how much I was hurting my family. Years of being Adam's punching bag, of being the brunt of Bree's sarcastic quips, years of being the "weak little brother;" all of the same pain I had felt was showing on their faces. And you know what? I liked it.

"I'll finally be stronger than even you, Adam!" I spoke for the first time since my family had come in. "Years of being thrown around and being told I'm 'so weak.' Once I get this update, I won't be your punching bag anymore!"

"Chase, what do you think you're doing?" Mr. Davenport tried to reason with me. "Don't you remember how he held you captive?"

"I remember. But you know what else I remember? Being locked in a basement for fifteen years!" I snapped back. Mr. Davenport stumbled back in shock. He had not expected that. "Don't even try to talk me out of this. I've already made up my mind. I'm done being 'flash glue.' None of you ever appreciated me. Let's see how well you work without me!"

Having said all I wanted to, I picked up my family using my molecularkinesis and stuffed them into Adam's capsule. I slammed the door shut. Adam looked mad, Bree looked like she was going to cry, and Leo just looked terrified. Mr. Davenport's expression was unreadable. I flinched, and for just one second I was tempted to let them out. But I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Let's go upgrade you, Chase," Douglas said. We walked out of the room together, doing our evil laughs.

So . . . Chase is evil now. What'd you think? Was it good? Terrible? Review and let me know! Sorry it's so short. I have it broken up that way, with some short chapters and some longer chapters. Tomorrow's will be longer. So, let me know what you think, and I'll see you all again tomorrow night/afternoon!
