✪ Episode 5| The Road

At Mighty Force headquarters, in the living quarters, Bree, Skylar and Harper are in the living room when Adam enters the room with grease all over his face.

"hi girls!" Adam says going to the fridge, the girls frown "Adam, you have something here" Skylar says pointing to her face.

"oh yeah one of the jet engines exploded in my face..." Adam only wipes the corner of his chin "better?" Adam says "Skylar expressed herself badly, she meant that you have a little thing here!" Bree points at her face, Adam tilts his head "yeah man, go take a shower" Harper says.

"No, I worked all day not to mention that I spent the whole morning in the engine room readjusting the engines and capacitors of the aircraft carrier, I'm exhausted!" Adam says he approaches the sofa "No, no, No!" Harper uses her foot to push Adam away from the couch.

"stay calm there mechanic man... don't even come with that dirty grease face near the sofa" Harper says "since when do you care about dirty grease things?" Adam ask.

"I don't care but Chase does, don't you remember the...poncho speech!?" Harper says "Uhg I hate that poncho" Adam says "relax I got rid of that thing" Harper says, Bree and Skylar look at each other confused.

"Okay, I'm going to take a shower" Adam says leaving "and remember to use the towel only after you wash your face" Harper says "Too late!" Adam shouts from the bathroom, Harper rolls her eyes and sits on the couch.

"Wow it's still weird that Adam understands mechanics" Bree says "I'm glad he understands, since that's pretty much what saved us from getting stuck in the middle of nowhere" Harper says.

"What was it like living on the run?" Skylar asks "it was difficult but liberating at the same time" Harper thinks.

"It's hard to say, actually, for a long time I regretted having done what I did, it took a while for it to sink in that I would need to...start over, that the three of us would have to start over" Harper says.

"Look, at least you had Chase and Adam, when I was in prison, Kaz... and Oliver, and even Skylar, no matter how far away she was, they were everything to me, they were what gave me the strength to have hope" Bree says "I know, it was an important moment for us, as difficult as it was... thanks to that we were able to build all this" Harper says.

"Honestly, I really admire what you did Harper" Skylar says, Harper looks at her "stealing the chips, it was heroic, that was incredible" Skylar says "Thank you" Harper says.

"we will never be able to thank you guys enough for getting us out of that prison" Bree says "No need, we would never leave you there, you are our family, we are a team and teams never quit on each other" Harper says holding Bree's hand, she smiles and hugs Harper.

Skylar smiles "Aw I love you guys" Skylar goes to them, Harper and Bree chuckles.

A year before.

Chase, Harper and Adam were still on the run, they were walking on a road, they had nowhere to go, they just walked away from centium city, still thinking about the plan.

Chase walks with his arm around Harper, Adam walks behind them while Newton follows them.

"Are we there yet?" Adam says "Adam we don't even know where we're going yet" Chase says "but are we close?" Adam says exhausted "I don't know" Harper says "can't we stop?" Adam says "No" Chase says.

"Can we eat? I'm hungry" Adam says "we all are, we haven't eaten in days" Harper says irritated "Why don't we stop?" Adam says "Why don't you shut up!" Chase says irritated "Chase calm down" Harper says.

"I'm sorry, but I can't take it anymore" Adam says, Harper crosses her arms and looks down "of course you can, look how far we've already walked!" Chase points to the road.

"Chase we can't walk around forever...we need a car" Adam says "there's no way we can get a car!" Chase says "Adam's right, Chase, I don't know where we're going, but it would be much harder for the authorities to catch up with us if we had a car" Harper says.

"How are we going to get a car?" Chase says "we can trade with someone" Harper says "who would trade a car whit us?" Chase says, suddenly Newton runs and jumps into Harper's arms when it starts to rain.

"Oh great, thirst problem solved" Adam drinks rainwater, Chase looks around and sees a field and a house in the distance.

"Come on!" Chase pulls Adam and grabs Harper's hand and they run closer to the house, they stay under an awning near the house, Newton meows.

"shh calm down New it's okay" Harper says hugging the cat, Chase also caresses him,suddenly a guy comes out of the house with a raincoat.

"stay behind me" Adam says getting in front of them, Chase looks at Adam and hugs Harper "who's there!" The guy approaches "Go away!" He says "we don't want any trouble" Adam says.

"wait...losers!?" He lowers his hood revealing himself to be Trent, he used to be the bully at Mission Creek High School before becoming a gym teacher there but still bullying Adam, Chase and Leo especially.

"Trent?" Chase asks "Are you kidding!" Trent smiles "Oh I wanted to" Adam says looking at Chase in surprise.

"Don't stand there in the rain, come!" Trent says, they follow Trent to the house's garage "Trent what are you doing here?" Harper asks "I live here now" Trent says "really?" Adam asks.

"yes, after you came out as robotic freaks and Perry retired I got fired from the school...Apparently the new principal didn't think my teaching method was suitable" Trent says "shocking!" Chase says sarcastically.

"Duh!...anyway then I came to live with my father and grandmother here" Trent explains.

"Look, I know we've had problems in the past but...""relax, I'm a new man now, sorry for all the insults and wedgies..." Trent puts his hand on Chase's shoulder who makes a frustrated face.

"heads on the toilet, punches more insults more and wedgies and..." "I get It!" Chase interrupts "You're forgiven" Chase says.

"can we stay here? At least tonight" Harper ask "Uh, yes, the thing is, my dad can't know...he's kind of totally against bionics and considers you guys to be dangerous criminals and stuff" Trent says.

"you don't think that about us?" Adam says, Trent laughs "Oh come on? I remember you guys, You don't even scare flies" Trent laughs,the three look at each other.

"for a second I thought he had matured" Chase says "Hey, I've matured, okay!" Trent says "obviously, how old are you now 40?" Harper ask "Do you want to stay here or not?" Trent says "we're going to stay, but we're leaving here tomorow" Chase says.

"you can stay as long as you want, just don't let my dad see you, in fact if he comes here there's a small storage room at the end of the garage" Trent says, Adam sees a car under a sheet.

"and that car?" Adam says "my dad is a mechanic, he has a lot of them" Trent says, Adam looks at Chase "Can you get us a car?" Chase says "I can try but I can't guarantee it will be a good car" Trent says "it's something" Adam says.

"I'm sorry about what happened to your sister and all the comic book guys" Trent says, they nod at him.

"Oh and here are some clothes and others that my grandmother will donate... I think you need them" Trent takes a large box and hands it to them.

"Thank you so much Trent...whoa I never thought I'd say that" Harper smiles "yeah, thanks" Chase says "I'll let you settle in and distract my father, tomorrow I'll be back with news about the car " Trent leaves.

"We know we're at rock bottom when Trent is our savior" Adam says "It's not rock bottom if he's nice to us" Harper says putting her hand on his shoulder.

"okay, we have enough coupons for a free pizza and soda" Chase takes coupons out of his pocket "Finally real food!" Harper cheers "Adam, it's your turn to get the food so..." Chase hands over the coupons, Adam takes the coupons.

"and remember be discreet!" Chase says "I know, Don't talk to anyone you don't need to talk to" Adam says.

"Exactly because if the FBI finds you and arrests you, I'm not going to save you" Chase says "of course you will, you love me" Adam says, Chase glares at him.

"oh right Harper, he loves me" Adam says "He loves you" Harpe mocks Chase who smirks at her sarcastically, Adam laughs and leaves.

◆ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❴✪❵ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ◆

Chase locks the garage door and Harper looks at the clothes and things for donation from Trent's grandmother.

"Look at backpacks, they'll be useful" Harper says "yeah...look" Chase takes a men's leather jacket "what do you think?" Chase asks "it's perfect" Harper says.

Newton lays it down in the box "Look, I'm thinking, if we can get the car, let's try to get back to Mission Creek, if we could stop by the Lab or one of Douglas' hideouts, We can find a way to make the chips untraceable" Chase says, Harper sighs "Okay" Harper says.

"Let's try to get as many things as possible from here" Chase grabs a backpack and takes it to the table in the garage.

"Are you okay?" Chase asks "yeah" Harper says in an upset tone, Chase sighs "I know... things are difficult now..." Chase approaches her.

"But we'll be fine" Chase smiles gently, Harper tilts her head thoughtfully, Chase kisses her forehead "I'm here" Chase says softly "I know" Harper smiles, he gently takes off her jacket.

Harper looks him in the eyes and Chase reciprocates by looking at her with a look that says "can we?" But in a hesitant way, Harper smiles and caresses his face, Chase leans towards her slowly.

Harper gently holds his hair and their lips meet in a soft kiss, Harper leans closer towards him, running her hand through his hair, which he hadn't cut in a while so it was easier to hold.

Chase breaks the kiss looking into her eyes, he takes off his shirt quickly, Harper smiles and does the same.

Chase smiles and cups her face, leaning in again for a soft, warm kiss, Harper hugs his waist gently stroking his back.

Chase starts to gently kiss the tip of her nose, then her cheek, then her jaw, he puts her hair back so he can kiss her neck, as calmly and delicately as he can.

Harper sighs, relaxing into his kisses, she realizes that he is being gentle like that to make her feel better, Chase's heart is racing and he feels anxious and excited but he stays calm to make Harper relax.

His kisses are so slow and delicate that Harper only pays attention to the sounds his lips make as they move away from her skin over and over again.

Harper sits on the table behind her holding Chase's hair, his hands travel from her thighs to her back as he begins to kiss her collarbone and slowly works his way down to the middle of her breasts, Harper presses her lips together and looks up.

Chase feels his face heat up, he stops kissing her and looks into her eyes, Harper looks into his eyes as the tips of their noses touch Harper caresses his chest.

They look at each other for a while, it has been a while since the two have had a moment alone.

Chase smiles slightly and Harper bites her lip holding back a smile.

Chase is holding one of her legs close to his waist, he holds her closer and starts to undo the fly of his pants breathing heavily, Harper hugs his neck and pulls him in for a firm, warm kiss, as Chase starts tugging at the waistband of her pants trying to get her pants off.

Harper begins to kiss Chase's neck passionately, Chase presses his lips together as he slides her pants down her legs, leaving her in just her underwear and him still in his pants with the fly open.

Harper looks into his flushed face, and with her legs around his hips, she slowly brings her hips closer to his, Chase looks at her, running his hands up her thighs, which he uses as a support to lift her.

Harper in his arms, Chase slowly carries her to the small storage room at the back of the garage, where Chase lays her on the floor and they start a hot make out session on the floor for some minutes.

But both trying to preserve that moment as much as possible.

◆ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❴✪❵ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ◆


Meanwhile Adam goes to the pizzeria he took a hooded sweatshirt from the clothes that Trent left in the garage, he puts the hood on covering his face so that no one would recognize him.

In the middle of the way, the rain had already stopped and he walked calmly down the street and saw wanted posters on walls, Adam sighs thoughtfully and enters the pizzeria.

"Hey man, how can I help you?" The attendant says "um I have these coupons and in the promotion it says that with ten you get free pizza and soda so" Adam gives the coupons to the guy and counts them and checks them.

"Okay, what will it be?" The attendant says "pepperone and cheese" Adam says "it'll be ready in 15 minutes, you can get the soda from the fridge" the attendant says.

Adam nods and goes to a fridge and takes a bottle of soda,while he waits he sees a report on TV about Elite Force and Grace appears as one of the interviewees.

Adam watches her on the TV screen thoughtfully, he smiles when she smiles on TV, both with a broken smile, when Adam leaves with the pizza he passes in front of a post office.

He stares at the front door for a few minutes and decides to go in,there he gets a piece of paper and an envelope where he writes an anonymous letter to Grace.

But the way he writes it makes it clear that the letter is from him


After writing the letter Adam mails it to Grace, just hoping that she would receive it and finally know how he feels about her.

◆ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❴✪❵ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ◆

Later, in the garage, if you follow the trail of clothes thrown on the floor you can find Chase and Harper who are on the floor of the storage room with just a sheet over them.

Chase is on top of Harper giving her a passionate kiss and she is caressing his face, Chase breaks the kiss breathlessly, Harper smiles at him gently.

Chase chuckles breathing fast and rolls over to lay down next to her as she pulls the sheet closer to her breasts, letting out a loud sigh again trying to catch her breath and Chase pulls the sheet around his waist.

Both of them staring at the ceiling for a few more seconds, breathing heavily, they calmly look at each other but quickly look up at the ceiling again, giggling shyly and blushing.

Harper lightly closes her eyes with a smile and Chase runs both hands over his face and into his hair, taking a deep breath.

Harper looks at him, Chase puts his arm around Harper and she lays on his chest, Chase kisses her head and when he lays his head back down he feels something lying on the floor.

"Owch!" Chase picks up a can "Oh so that's what fell on me at that moment" Chase says looking at the shelf behind them, he lies down again and Harper sighs as she massages her abs.

"I'm sorry Chase" Harper says "It's okay, I guess that's pretty common when you have sex in a storage room like that" Chase puts the can aside "What? No! I mean..." Harper sits next to him hugging the sheet.

"Sorry for putting you in this situation, for making you lose everything. This is all my fault, we had a perfect life but I...I acted on impulse and dragged you and Adam into this and...I know you didn't want to be here...now we have the damn chips but we don't have anything else we...I'm sorry" Harper says regretfully, Chase sits down and approaches her.

"I should have listened to you when you said to hand over the chips" Harper says, Chase thinks "No you shouldn't" Chase says, Harper looks at him.

"There's nothing wrong with what you did, quite the contrary, you had the courage to do what should be done, you had the courage to do what I didn't have the courage to do...You put yourself at risk to protect something bigger, you're a much better hero than me for that" Chase says putting her hair behind her ear.

"But you didn't agree with me" Harper says "I always thought you were right, but I was scared, and I kind of forgot everything elese...I kind of didn't care, as much as I should about the rest, and I panicked...because the only thing I cared about was protecting you..." Chase says, Harper smiles.

"Sounds selfish as hell, I know" Chase chuckles "Uh, put an entire nation at risk to protect your girlfriend... No, sounds very altruistic" Harper says sarcastically, Chase laughs.

"I'm sorry, if I had thought better and supported you from the beginning things could have been easier" Chase says "I knew you would be by my side even if you didn't agree" Harper puts her hand on his shoulder.

"of course, I'll always be here, you're everything I fight for now" Chase says, Harper leans in and kisses him gently, Chase holds her waist under the sheet, they break the kiss and touch their foreheads.

"What did you do to me girl!?" Chase says quietly, Harper laughs "nothing" Harper says "my name and my brother's are on the FBI's most wanted list... and the worst part is that I'm not completely freaking out about it!" Chase says, Harper laughs and hugs him, Chase smiles stroking her hair.

They hear Adam try to open the garage door "It's Adam, I'm going there" Chase says getting up from the ground he grabs his pants and starts to put them on, Harper watches him tilting her head.

"Wait, where are my underwear?" Chase says "I don't know but what do you think of my new shorts?" Harper says standing up and showing that she's wearing Chase's boxers, Chase rolls his eyes.

"it's cute, but I think you'd better return it to the rightful owner" Chase smirk "But it's so comfortable," Harper says "Stay here I'll get you clothes" Chase says, Harper sits on the floor.

Chase puts on his belt and goes to the garage door, opening it for Adam "Did anyone here order pizza?" Adam says walking in.

"Did anyone recognize you?" Chase asks "do you think the world revolves around us?" Adam says "Our faces all over the news for the last month make me think so" Chase says taking a shirt and shorts for Harper.

"Relax, Chase, the guy didn't even see my face...I know how to take care of us" Adam says "yeah i know, I trust you" Chase goes to the storage room door and throws the clothes to Harper and closes the door.

"Really?" Adam says surprised "obviously" Chase smiles, Adam looks down and smiles with his brother's approval, Harper leaves the storage room, tying her hair up.

"uh It smell is good" Harper says going to the table "I know!" Adam says opening the pizza box, they each grab a napkin and a piece of pizza.

"look at this, it's so beautiful" Adam says, pretending emotion as he looks at the pizza, Harper and Chase chuckles.

"what took you so long?" Harper asks Adam "Yeah, the pizzeria isn't that far from here" Chase says "I needed to do something" Adam says "What?" Harper asks.

"you know I wrote a letter...an anonymous letter, to Grace" Adam says "you? Writing?" Chase says, Harper nudges him.

"yeah, I don't know, it all happened so fast I didn't even have a chance to...tell her how much I love her" Adam says "you wrote saying you love her" Harper smiles.

"yes, I never told her that, and I needed to let her know somehow since I don't even know when I'll be able to see her again" Adam says.

"Why didn't you stay with her?" Harper asks "I needed to explain this in the letter too, I love her, but I know that she would be safe there, you, on the other hand, needed my help, you are my family I would never abandon you on a dangerous path" Adam says, Chase and Harper smile and look at each other.

"And see now...At least we have each other...because other than that we have literally nothing" Adam says, Harper and Chase roll their eyes.

Chase looks at Harper "speak for yourself...I have everything" Chase says, Harper smiles and holds his hand.

The next day Trent walks in the garage, Harper, Chase and Adam are packing up to leave.

"Good morning guys, I brought you coffee and some sandwiches, my grandma thought you would be hungry" Trent says "didn't you say your family couldn't know about us?" Adam says "No, My father is the one who can't know, my grandmother is very calm" Trent says.

"Trent not to be rude but did you get the car?" Chase asks "oh yeah, that's what I wanted to talk about, we have this car there, you can keep it if you make it work" Trent says, Harper goes to the car in the garage and opens the engine.

"What's wrong with the car?" Harper asks "I have no idea, I'm not a mechanic" Trent laughs "If we made it work, is it ours?" Chase says "Yup" Trent says.

Harper stares at the engine "Yeah, this car is a real piece of junk" Harper says "I know, good luck with that" Trent leaves.

Chase goes to the car "oh come on it shouldn't be that hard" Chase says he looks at the engine frustrated "oh man how I miss my chip" Chase says.

"you have no idea what we have here huh" Harper says "no, it just looks like a bunch of tanks and springs with meaningless wires to me" Chase says putting his hand on his forehead frustrated.

Harper caresses his back "relax, you're still cute" Harper says, Chase looks at her "you're not helping" Chase says, Harper checks the car engine Adam approaches and watches her.

"I've never handled an old car like that" Harper says "Okay, the problem isn't with the car's engine block, I think it has to do with the crankshaft..." Harper says "have you seen the pistons?" Adam ask,Harper looks at him.

"like... The piston transfers energy to the crankshaft to propel the car...The pistons move up and down inside the cylinder twice during each rotation of the crankshaft....Without the piston, the crankshaft won't work" Adam approaches the car, Harper and Chase look at him impressed.

"I'm right, right?" Adam says "yeah, super right" Harper says impressed "Adam, since when do you understand cars?" Chase says.

"well... I wasn't going to say anything because I never finished the course, but after you guys left the island I felt... empty, I don't know, I felt that apart from my super strength I wasn't very useful for anything else and that I needed a kind of hobby that was useful... so I started a mechanics course" Adam says "you what?" Harper says.

"and oddly enough I'm very good, I mean it's not that complicated when you see the thing in front of you, I don't understand names and stuff, that's why I failed the theory class but...In the practical class I was the best in the class" Adam says.

"why didn't you tell me, Adam, that's amazing!" Chase says "I didn't finish the course because of the theory classes and everything that happened on the island, I didn't want you to think I couldn't do it" Adam says.

"Adam, that's ridiculous, I would never think that...I'm so proud of you" Chase pats him on the back "Well, we have to grow up sometime, right" Adam smiles.

"so can you fix the car?" Harper says "Yeah, if you help me I'll get this beauty running until the afternoon" Adam says "okay let's do it" Harper says.

"and Chase, let the professionals work" Adam says with a smile as Chase glares at him annoyed "Oh, I need my chip back!" Chase says.

◆ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❴✪❵ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ◆

At the end of the afternoon, at sunset, Adam and Harper repair Trent's father's car, they take it out of the garage and start putting things in the car.

"If repainted, it would be an amazing car" Adam says "we can do that" Chase says "oh and if we paint some fire flames and put Led lights on the tires" "No!" Harper interrupts Adam.

Trent approaches "so I guess that's it, losers" Trent says, Adam takes Newton in his arms and puts him in the car.

Chase approaches Trent and extends his hand "Thank you so much Trent, you were a lot of help I don't even know how we're going to thank you, but it means a lot" Chase says.

Trent takes his hand and pulls him into an unexpected hug, Chase frowns in surprise and Harper and Adam look at each other.

"take care, I'd be really sad if you weirdos died" Trent says "uh...okay?" Chase says "seriously take care of yourselves" Trent lets go of Chase "Goodbye Trent" Chase says "bye" Trent says goodbye to Harper and Adam.

Harper goes to the car door "I'll drive it" Chase says "But you don't have a driver's license" Harper smirk "yes I know, but fuck it" Chase says, Harper smiles "Oh who are you?" Harper says.

"Chase Davenport, the guy on the wanted posters" Chase says "He looks dangerous" Harper smirk "The girl is even more dangerous" Chase says getting into the car.

Harper sits in the passenger seat and puts her feet on the dashboard "Hey, feet off, we're criminals not animals" Chase says, Harper tries to contain her smile taking her feet off the dashboard.

Adam is in the backseat holding Newton "where are we going?" Adam asks, Harper looks at Chase "just enjoy the trip" Chase smirks and starts the car, they head down the road.

They practically lived in that car until Douglas and Melody found them and took them to Mighty Med where they started the Mighty Force options.


...

(while I was writing this episode... the idea of ​​a small "spin off" of this book series came to mind, which would obviously be a few chapters. But it would be a spin off following the lives of Chase, Harper and Adam on the run, a little of what they went through, people they met, the difficulties and challenges they faced without a place to live, without destiny without bionics... without anything but each other, but it's just a vague idea i have, nothing confirmed...but tell me what you guys think of the idea)
