Spike Fright

I opened my eyes slowly and saw our living room half destroyed, Adam unconscious on the floor and Sabrina was nowhere to be seen. I kneeled down to Adam, punched his face a little in order to wake him up but nothing.

"Adam, come on. What did I do?" I mumbled as I stood up and dragged my brother all the way to the couch. I picked up his body and placed it on the couch gently, I took a blanket from the closet and covered him in order not to get cold. 

"Adam?" I whispered again without receiving any response.

I took out my phone of my pocket and called Mr. Davenport who was on his way home with Bree and Leo.

As soon as they arrived, my father freaked out in the sight of the house and his son. He ran to Adam's side, checked his pulse and turned to face me.

"Chase, I need to see you in the lab, now. Guys, take Adam to one of the spare bedrooms and I'll meet you there in a while. I need to take some medical stuff from downstairs." He demanded and inserted the elevator being followed by me, he was really furious so our conversation would not be a conversation at all. 

The ride to the lab was the longest I've ever been, Mr. Davenport did not say a word until we reached our destination.

"Chase what were you thinking hurting your brother? His spine is injured, he may never walk again. Just tell me a reason that you would that."

"Mr. Davenport, I don't know, I don't remember what happened. I woke up on the floor too, I have no memory of the last hour."

"Stop lying okay? And how did you managed to hurt him so badly? Only Spike... Chase, I am sorry..."

Before he managed to finish his words, I ran out of the lab and crossed the road quickly. I walked for some miles till I saw Sabrina sitting on a bench crying.

"Sabrina," I shouted.

As soon as she saw me, she got up and made some few steps away, walking further. 

"No, wait. I am sorry. I need to explain. Please." I whispered feeling so awful that I started crying too.

"Chase, come on. Let's sit here." She told me smiling, approaching me. 

I explained everything from when we made the molecule to Spike's appearance.

"Wow, I guess being Bionic is not easy." Sabrina laughed.

"Say that again. The worst part is that Adam is injured because of me."

"Don't worry, I am sure he will be fine but we should go check on him just in case."

"True. I need to apologize." I admitted and we started marching on the pavement when we noticed that someone was following us the whole time. I had Sabrina behind me in order not to get hurt and turn around to face the man who was holding a knife.

"What do you want?" I asked.

"Isn't that obvious? Give me your money." He yelled, the knife still in his hand.

"Over my dead body. Sabrina run." I screamed and she did as he was told.

The man attacked me, however, I activated my forcefield and dodged every single one of his moves. That was until he hit me on the back of the neck knocking me down. "You think you are tough ha?" He threatened me. "Let's see how strong you are with that wound on your stomach. 

Before I try to react, the knife had already cut my skin leaving a huge wound. I was already on the ground and I just closed my eyes as I fell into darkness. I had no courage to fight it, after all, I deserved to die. That's the last thing I remember.

I am currently lying on something soft, in pain, worried about Adam and Sabrina but I won't open my eyes till this pain slows down a bit. One minute, two minutes, three minutes pass and it still hurts but I decide to let them know I am awake, to relieve their stress. As soon as I have a clear vision, I notice Sabrina sitting next to me sleeping and Perry on my right.

"How you're doing squash face?"

"I think I am going back to sleep again." I joke smiling at her. "Where is my family? And why are you here?"

"Your father is outside, your sister is at home with Adam and Leo and a simple thanks would be enough. My powerful body saved you small butt, smarty pants." Perry bragged.

As soon I hear Adam's name, I sit up violently, groaning out loud, waking up Sabrina. The door opens too and Mr. Davenport inserts.

"Take it, easy buddy, you were in surgery a couple of hours ago." Mr. Davenport says running by my side pulling me back down gently.

"Chase are you alright?" Sabrina asks worriedly.

I nod unable to speak.

"I have to leave, I got a text from mum, I'll see you tomorrow okay?" She explains smiling.

I nod again.

She exits the room, Perry does too so I am left alone with my "father."

"How's Adam?" I ask in a hoarse voice.

"He is fine. Fortunately, he can walk. Look, Chase, I need to apologize. I know Spike is out of control and I should not have yelled at you in the first place."

"So we're okay!" I reply smiling. This is the closest I've been to him since they discovered our secret and I am really keen on with that.
