Chapter 16
The "Frazier's" had landed on Ellesmere Island two hours ago. They had made it to Douglas' backup lab. Marcus was keeping a close eye on Adam and Bree while Douglas was trying to explain the entire thing to Chase.
"Chase, we're in a little bit of trouble right now with the government. So if anyone asks, your name is not Chase Davenport. It's Kevin Fraizer. My name is Reese, Adam's name is Alex, Bree's is Juliana, and Marcus' is Bryan. Are you following me so far?" Douglas asked.
"Yes. I am following" Chase told him.
"Good. Because there is a little bit more you need to know to make this lie the truth"
"Ok..."
"I am a single dad. Adam and Marcus were adopted, and you and Bree were born when I was with my second wife Marian. Understand?"
"Yes. It that all dad?" Chase asked. Douglas nodded. Chase stood up and walked upstairs. They were in a cozy little house. A little smaller than Douglas' old house, but it still had the lab in the basement. That's where Douglas planned to make Chase a new chip. One that WOULDN'T implode.
There was only two bedrooms in the house. Douglas slept in one, and he gave Chase the other. Marcus' capsule was set up in the lab, and since Douglas didn't have one for Adam or Bree, they had to sleep in the living room Douglas had made sure he locked all the doors and windows from the outside so that the only way out was through the lab, and Douglas had rigged it so that Marcus would wake up if anyone opened the door.
"Adam what are we going to do about Douglas?" Bree asked.
"Douglas? What are we going to do about Chase?" Adam seemed more worried about his little brother than his father/uncle.
"We'll figure something out." Bree reassured him, "I don't trust Douglas."
"Me either. You sleep. I'll stay up. Make sure they don't try anything" Adam told her.
"Thank you" Bree smiled. She hugged her older brother than laid down on the couch. She pulled the blanket up to her head.
"If you get tired Adam just wake me up. I'll keep watch"
"Ok" Adam responded. Bree smiled then drifted off to sleep.
