Disclaimer: I do not own Lab Rats.
Bree was in her favorite place of the whole house, the roof. She was thinking about everything that had happened that day. It was already getting dark and it seemed as if a storm was coming, but she didn't cared, she didn't want to go back inside. She had another "argument" with Mr. Davenport when she went to the lab after leaving her fight with Chase.
-Flash Back-
Bree was waiting for the elevator doors to open. She couldn't believe that Chase had just called her "reckless" and practically told her it was her fault they failed the mission. When the doors finally opened she stormed out of the elevator and into her capsule. The capsule changed her into some skinny jeans, a cute knitted sweater and some combat boots. Bree came out of her capsule and started treating her wrist carefully. She didn't want to tell any one about her injury because it would seem as she needed her brother's help in missions, and she was trying to make the point that she was perfectly fine without them. It burned a lot, and it was a bad one at it. The final touch of her treatment, was a bandage; no one could see it thanks to the sweater. Suddenly Mr. Davenport entered the lab. Bree put the first aid kid away without her dad noticing it.
"I had been looking for you" he told her.
"Well, you found me" Bree joked. She tried a smile.
"What was all of that about?" Donald said. in complete seriousness.
"What are you talking about?" Bree asked clearly confused. Mr. Davenport let out a sigh of frustration.
"The mission Bree, that's what I'm talking about" She stayed silent, not knowing what to say.
"Did you really just take 2 people out?" To her, his words seemed to fly into her face. Relentless like drizzling rain. But it was just his loud tone that made her cringe.
"Dad let me explain" she tried.
"No more Bree, I'm tired of giving you chances. From now on every, free time we have will be all about training. No more playing around, just hard training. And training all weekends" And with that he left her, not even asking her if she was okay.

We're all just getting use to you
Bree kept thinking that to herself "Maybe if I say it enough times, I'll start believing it myself." she said to herself, shaking her head with the thought. Bree decided to go and take a walk. She just wanted to get as far away as possible from everyone. She came down from the roof into the living room, grabbed a scarf and a beanie since it was cold outside and left. She didn't bothered on telling any one else where she was going or when she was coming back, because she didn't even know the answer to that.
Chase didn't know what to think about his sister right now. He was really mad at her for being so reckless.
"I would have done fine. If you hadn't interfered." Chase mimicked his sister. "Interfered? Interfered?!-he blew out air loudly from his mouth-We saved her, if it wasn't for us she would be a burnt marshmallow right now" Chase said angrily, to no one in particular.
"You should stop talking to yourself…. It's weird" Adam suddenly entered into his little brother's room.
"Have you heard about knocking before?" Chase asked his older brother as he came to sit in the bed next to him.
"Nah, I'm good" he told his youngest sibling. Chase rolled his eyes at Adam, laying back down on his bed. "Let me guess, you were talking about Bree" Adam guessed, already knowing the answer. Chase sighed, putting his head in his hands.
"It's just" Chase tried. "I don't know" Chase said loudly, giving in. "I guess I'm just mad that she doesn't care about missions as much as we do. She should try harder. She could have killed many people back there"
"Don't you think she's trying?" Adam asked, turning to Chase with a hope that he would be persuaded. The youngest bionic just replied with a long sigh. "Look Chase, I know it's hard having her back into our life suddenly after so many years, but you should give her a chance, instead of criticizing, try and help her and-"
The brother's talk was interrupted by a knock in the door. "Come in" Chase said. Douglas popped his head in.
"Hi guys I was just wondering if any of you had seen Bree. I haven't seen her in a while already" Douglas told them.
"No, but we will help you look for her" Adam said standing up and going to the door. He looked back at his brother, waiting for him to come. Chase look unwilling to go, but still went with them.
Bree ended up in the park she used to come all the time with Leo. Suddenly a wave of nostalgia hit her.
I haven't seen Leo since the hospital.
Bree thought. She felt guilt, clawing inside of her. Leo was everything to her. He was her best friend, her brother; the only brother she had that really loved her. She felt the urge to go and see him, and that's exactly what she did. The trip was short since the park is just 5 minutes away from her old house. While she was walking through the path she had went so many times back then, she remembered all the times she had with Leo and Tasha. She really, really missed them.
As she neared home, memories started to replay.
-Flash Back-
When the Dooley family adopted her. Leo's outstretched hand, gripping her own small and frail one. Reassurance was what she need in that moment of abandoment, that was what Leo gave her.
Racing Leo back home. All the times that they hanged out after school, just by racing each other.
Tasha helping her to get ready for her first date. Bree was never the one to dress up for anyone. Tasha was the only one who actually understood her style.
The three of them spending holidays together. Thanksgiving dinner in a small candle lit dining room, while a big roasted turkey and side dishes were seen filling up the table.
Tasha and Bree decorating the house for Christmas as Leo just watched them and did the "heavy lifting".
Leo and Bree watching how Adam and Chase Davenport rode Adam's new car.
-x-
Her last thought, which was ironic now that she saw it.
She suddenly remember the day she meet Adam and Chase at school. For the first time.
-Flash Back-
Bree and Leo had just walked though the courtyard, when something collided into Bree from behind. The two feel over and landed on the grass.
"I am so sorry" he said, and gave out his hand. Bree grabbed it and he helped her up.
"It's fine" Bree said and looked up to see who this person was. He was about one or two inches taller then her, with brownish hair and hazel eyes. "
I'm really sorry" he apologized.
"I told you it's fine" Bree said.
"Um. My name's Chase Davenport" Chase introduced.
"Um. Bree" Bree replied.
"Wait" a voice called out. Bree stopped walking, and taking a chance she turned around.
"What?" Bree asked.
"Are you okay?" Adam asked. Bree stared at him.
"Why do you care?" she asked.
"I just wanted to see if you were okay." Adam said and stood in his spot.
"It doesn't matter how I feel. It isn't going to change anything" Bree said and began to walk away.
"And don't worry about Kaitlyn. She's all talk" Adam said. He stood watching her as she went up the stairs.
-x-
She missed those days, when Adam and Chase were just strangers and she still had Leo and Tasha. When everything was way easier. She got out of her trance and noticed she just had ringed the doorbell.
I have to tell Leo everything she thought everything.
Then the door flung open. In the doorway stood…
And that was Chapter 4 of Walk Away.
I do know that this was a sort of early update, but I guess why wait right?
I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter and more to come. :)
Until the next update, kelliburgles & PBL.
