Donald was worried about his son more than any other time in his life. That surgery would last forever, it had been already five hours. Despite her son and husband, Sasha stayed there with them in order to preoccupy the kids with other things.
One hour later, the doctor came out with a sad expression in his face which could be a warn that the fear of everyone came true. The fear of losing their youngest member.
"How is my son?" Donald asked full of concern in his eyes.
The doctor did not answer at first, he stepped back waving at Douglas and Mr. Davenport to follow him.
"What's going on? Is everything alright?" The father of the children inquired.
"The surgery was very difficult, some cells of his brain were damaged."
"And that means?"
"It means that without his chip, Chase will be a handicap. He won't be able to think properly or to act. So, I suggest that you keep him away from missions."
"But he is gonna be okay, won't he?" Donald asked.
"Absolutely. He is sleeping now, you can see him."
"Thank you." Both brothers whispered in unison and approached their family.
After explaining everything to their family, Donald and Douglas had to take the most hard decision of their lives, whether to tell the truth to Chase or create an excuse just to make him feel useful in the team.
Davenport family walked to the boy's room while Sasha to her husband. Chase looked like an angel in this bed with the white sheet covering his body from his leg to the chest, his hands out connected to IV's and his head full of bandages.
Bree stroke his hair a bit, smiling, feeling glad that her little brother survived, not caring if he would join them again or not.
"He is so peaceful. Weird thing for him cause he always brags about himself and his super smarts." She told to Adam.
"I get what you're saying. Without Chase, I am empty. Who am I gonna throw if something happens to him?"
"D-don't you d-dare!" Α sore voice was heard in the background.
Chase opened his eyes, holding his head, looking at his siblings in a peculiar way. He sat up a bit, groaning many times and spotted his father staring at the floor.
"What happened, Douglas?"
"Nothing."
"Douglas, I can see it in your face, tell me."
They clarified the problem to him, his reaction should be negative and he should be angry, instead Chase smiled not because he would stay on the island, not doing anything, because deep inside him, he was happy that he was alive. He possesed strength and courage to face this and return soon.
"So Chase, what do you have to say about me, killing Krane?" Douglas bragged.
"We killed Krane. You did not do anything. We combined our powers."
"Oh, yeah, I think you miss something." Leo said.
"What? What happened?"
Before they manage to reply to him, Sebastian got inside the room being followed by his mother. The Bionic Boy stared for a few minutes and pulled himself back, glaring at the other boy.
"What is he doing here? He tried to kill me. Who is she?" He yelled pointing at Sasha.
"It's me, Chasey. The woman who saved you."
"I don't understand, Douglas what did you do?"
"Me? Why me… Alright, do you want to hear a story?"
Chase nodded impatient. The others told him everything about Krane, the Tritton App, Sasha and her husband, that Sebastian is her lost son and he was not evil anymore, the last fight and how they beat the enemy.
"So, let me think. We are on a island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and we are supposed be mentors at the soldiers? Very funny. I am starting to begin that you totally lost it."
No one talked and the boy observed their expressions.
"You're telling the truth, don't you?"
Each one of them nodded.
"Oh boy." Chase thought and fell back with his hand on his face.
A month had passed since the incident and everything was normal. Adam, Bree and Chase were amazing mentors, Leo complained about being a student, Donald running the place well enough and Dougie to be hunted by Perry. Sasha and Thomas went home, taking Sebastian with them and Krane never disturbed them again.
"Hey Leo, have you seen my new tablet?" Chase asked suspicious.
"The white one with the picture of DNA on it?"
"Ha-ha."
"No."
"Leo, give me my tablet, now."
"You're looking for this?" Another voice was heard approaching them.
"Adam, give it to me."
"Come and get it."
The young boy ran behind his brother until he stambled and fell on the floor with his eyes closed. Adam turned his head around and screamed.
"Chase, Chase, talk to me. Please."
No response.
"Please, I will never hurt you again."
"Never?"
"Never. Hey, you were awake this whole time?"
Chase smiled and grabbed his brother's hand in order to stand up. Suddenly a crack noise was echoed in the room. Both Bionic people noticed a broken screen and Leo.
"Leo, what did you just do?"
"Did you hear that too? I think Big D needs us. Go to go." Leo smiled and ran as fast as he could.
"This isn't over." Chase yelled and ran behind him, followed by Adam.
