RAGE RECKONING Chapter 17
“That still doesn’t answer my question. What is going on here?” Derick yelled. “You are correct and I can see that you are not too bright if not you would have figured out something by now but that isn’t a problem.” The man said. “My name Is Dr. Colvert.” “Dr. Colvert…” Derick murmured to himself. “Why does that name sound so familiar? Wait! Celia Colvert, it can’t be, you are Celia’s father.” Derick thought out loud. “Celia…my little girl. Well you are correct about that boy.” “But what does that have to do with me?” Derick was still confused. “The night of your school dance. I still don’t understand what you were doing at that alley but you were at the wrong place in the wrong time. You came in contact with him that night.” Dr. Colvert pointed at the man behind him. Derick tried to put everything together as he listened to what Dr. Colvert. He looked closer at the man behind Dr. Colvert and then he realized that it was the same man he bumped into that night. “Becaus

Dr. Edward was working on something in his lab and then his assistant scientist walked into the lab. “Sir, the police are outside the building waiting to see you, it is concerning Dr. Colvert.” The assistant scientist said when he got to Dr. Edward. “You know I said never to disturb me when I am working on something. But I guess I will let you off the hook for this one because it is very important.” Dr. Edward started to remove his eye goggles, mask and gloves. And then his assistant said. “But I don’t understand sir, why are you so fixed on getting the chemical Dr. Colvert created. I thought it was unstable and dangerous.” Dr. Edward finished with what he was doing and walked toward the exit of his lab, but before he left he said, “Walk with me.” He left the lab and his assistant rushed to him immediately. Dr. Edward was considered the top scientist with so many achievements to back it up. He was also there the night that Dr. Colvert presented his chemical, he was one o

“I am sure he will not kill you, he just needs the chemical back from you that is all.” Simon said. “I haven’t known Dr. Covert for long but I can already tell that he is unstable and he is capable of doing anything to get what he wants.” Derick said. Derick realized that if he plays his cards right he will be free. “I cannot do anything about the situation now, I cannot go against Dr. Colvert.” “Do you really want Dr. Colvert to end up with the chemical that is inside me? Do you know what he will be able to do with that kind of power?” “Even if I free you now, what are you going to do? He is still going to look for you.” “Honestly I don’t know, maybe go to the police. But what I am sure of is that I will go home, I will go home to my mother. She needs me, she must be worried by now.” “If I release you, what will happen to me? What if he finds out that I freed you?” “He does not need to find that out, just unlock this things and leave here, you were never her
RAGE RECKONING Chapter 20
Derick was woke up by a gentle push from the elderly woman who was driving. He opened his eyes and he could see the car moving. He could not believe he slept off in a stranger’s car but now he felt his strength coming back to him. “We have reached the city, where would you want me to drop you off?” The woman said while driving. Derick got himself and sat up. He wanted to go straight home but then he realized that if there was anywhere that Dr. Colvert will look for him when he finds out that he escaped, it will be his home. Dr. Colvert was able to find him in his school so he did not want to take any chance. So he decided to go to John’s house instead, “Just keep going ma’am, you will be there soon.” Derick said to the woman. Now he was calm and relaxed, he started to think about everything that has happened so far. He could not imagine how much his life has changed. The woman was still driving and Derick saw that she was close to John’s home so he decided to sto

Dr. Colvert went up the stairs and Simon followed him. As they walked through the hallway, Simon could do nothing but hope that the doctor would not find out that it was because of him that Derick escaped. Now he was walking behind the doctor, he started to regret his decision freeing Derick, he knew that there was no way the doctor will not know it was him. “What are you going to do now sir?” Simon asked with a frightened voice. Dr. Colvert did not say anything, he just continued to walk and this only made Simon more frightened. They reached the doctor’s lab and they went inside. Simon was still wondering what the doctor was planning on doing now. Dr. Colvert started to clear some chemicals and equipment from a table. “Now that the kid is gone it is going to be hard to get him.” Dr. Colvert said. “I am sure that the government and police already know about the kid and are working on finding him.” He continued. “But how would they know about him?” Simon said.
RAGE RECKONING Chapter 22
He got to his house but he stayed at a distance and the police did not see him. He was still trying to figure out what was going on. He did not see any ambulance around and the house was intact so the fear of Dr. Colvert getting to his mother was gone but he still wondered what the police was doing in his home. He was tired of assuming so he decided to move to his house. As he went closer, some police officers where coming out of his house and his mother was also coming came out with them. They police officers where dragging his mother out of the house and the sight of that got him furious. “What are you doing? Why are you people here? And where are you taking me to?” Derick’s mother said as the police dragged her out of the house. Derick could not hold himself anymore, he rushed to his house and now he was in the middle of all the police while he mother was in front of him close to the house. “What are you doing with my mother? Let her go, I won’t warn you twice!” Derick
RAGE RECKONING Chapter 23
He wanted his mother to be safe and he knew that she will not be safe with him around. He was not about to go with Dr. Edward so he had to figure something out and fast. He looked around again and all the police in the area where no longer firing their guns at him, some of them where injured while the rest had no bullets left in their guns. He looked at his mother one last time and then ran away. He left the street and the area. Derick knew that they will not hurt his mother because they are the police and she was better off with them than with him. After Derick left, Dr. Edward came out of hiding and looked at all the destruction. He knew that things have become bigger and complication. He knew that he had to figure something out. The next day, it was morning and Celia was walking through the streets. She did not know where to go now that the police put her on the news. She has been on the streets trying to figure out what next to do, she was waiting to know if her father w

Derick did not want things to get out of hand and he did not want lose Celia now he was with her, he tried to figure out what to do to make the men leave them but he could not think of anything. The men were still walking towards them and Derick looked behind and Celia was still there, she looked scared. He knew that taking on the men was not a problem but he did not want to have another outburst of rage. He wanted to tell Celia to run away so he could handle the men but he was not sure if she will run far away and leave him. Then as he was thinking, one of the man hit him with an iron rod on his head. Derick fell on the floor. He started to feel dizzy, he started to bleed from his mouth. He did not understand what was going on, that hit was not supposed to affect him or even make him bleed. He has not felt this weak since the chemical came into his body. He looked back at Celia again and she was still standing there so he tried to get himself fast. But before he could get

Dr. Edward walked into the lab and looked around but there was no one in the lab. Ben ran into the lab and stood at the entrance, he looked around and there was no sign of Celia, Derick or john. Ben was relieved and at the same time confused, he wondered where they must have gone to. “I am not surprised, your lab is really impressive.” Dr. Edward said as he continued to walk around the lab. Ben relaxed so that he would not seem suspicious, “So why did you want to see my lab anyway.” “Well you can say as a scientist I like to admire labs and yours is fine.” Dr. Edward answered. Dr. Edwards walked around the lab slowly and Ben wondered what he was up to, there was no sign of Celia and the others but he was not okay with the way Dr. Edward was moving around the lab. “So what now, do you have everything you need?” Ben said. “Seems like you really want me to leave your lab quickly.” “Yeah, like I said, my lab is very private and the plants here are very sensitive.”

Dr. Edward entered the house with the police and Ben closed the door. “So tell me, what brings you here?” Ben asked while they were in the living room. “You are smart enough to know why I am here so let us not play the ignorant card.” Dr. Edwards said. “I know about Daniel and the chemical he created.” Ben said. “And you should know that he is in hiding now, he is a fugitive.” “Well it is hard not to know from the news.” Ben said. “Going straight to the point, Daniel is not here if you think he is.” Dr. Edward started to walk around the living room, “I know he is not here.” “So why are here then if you know that.” “You two were close, I know the relationship you have with him. And I looked into the chemical that he created and found out that you helped him with it at some point.” Dr. Edward said. “Yes we started the chemical together. Since you have done your research, you should know the reason why we started the chemical. I stopped helping with the chemi

“You started to feel this way when you first saw Celia this morning.” Ben said. “Yeah so what does that mean?” Derick asked. Ben went over to another corner of the lab, “The chemical is still getting used to your body and is using your anger as a pathway to thrive.” Ben put some drop of blood in a small glass and place it under a microscope then looked through the lens of the microscope. “Wow, would you look at.” Ben said while looking through the microscope. “The chemical is more unstable than I thought, it doesn’t only want to thrive, it’s fighting to take full control.” Ben continued. “What do you mean?” Celia asked. “I mean, if not you were not good at controlling your anger, the chemical would have taken control of your body. It would turned you into a monster filled with rage, you will have no other emotions.” Ben replied. “All that is scary and all but you haven’t told us about the weakness you figured out.” Derick said. “Oh.” Ben removed his eyes fro

The three of them followed Ben. When they got to a door, Ben turned back, “Well I don’t like too many people in my lab so why don’t only Derick follow me in, you two can wait here.” Ben said to them. “You really don’t expect that to happen.” John said. “I mean, Derick is the most wanted person now. Dr. Edward, the government and Dr. Colvert wants him. And you want us to allow you to be alone with him while he is venerable.” “I don’t expect you to trust me, and yes I am fascinated with him and I need to do some research and hopefully I will find out what is wrong with him? Ben said. “Yeah we have no other choice john and Celia said that we can trust him so I guess it’s cool.” Derick said. “The only one who is willing and can possibly help us is him so why don’t you let him do that.” Celia added. “Well since you all would not listen then go ahead, if anything goes wrong remember and warned you.” John went to a chair and sat down. “Enter my lab but before you do wear thi

“I need you help uncle ben, it is really important.” Celia said “Come in quickly.” Ben said. Ben opened the door fully and Celia, John and Derick entered the house. They were now in the house, and the interior was even more impressive. There were few furnitures, almost everything in the house was white including the walls. The house was spotless, there was no sign of dirt anyway. Ben went to a corner and started removing his masks and goggles. “Remove your shoes there and washed your hands there at that sink.” Ben said to them. Derick saw the sink when he came in but he did not know why the sink was right there close to the front door. Celia went on to the sink, she washed her hands and clean it with the towel next to the sink. When she finished, Derick and John went on to wash their own hands. “I know you already know what is happening right now with my father, about the chemical he created.” Celia went to ben. “Of course I know, I am private not a caveman.” B

Celia finished her food and dropped her plate on the table in front of her. John and Derick were surprised with how fast she finished the food, they understood that she was really hungry. “While we wait for my father I think I know someone that we can go to, he could try to help us figure out what is wrong with you.” Celia said. “Who is he? And why are you only telling us now?” John asked. “He is a scientist, my godfather.” Celia replied. “So another scientist now, how many scientist will get involved? And who knows if he will be like your father or Dr. Edward.” “No, he is not like that. He is different. His goal is find cures for most human diseases. He is not driven by the any ambition or anything like that, if is genuinely good. He was my father’s student before, but now he works on his own privately.” Celia said. “So this scientist, you are sure he can help us?” Derick asked. “To be honest I am not fully sure, but he is a scientist with a brilliant mind so

As the water from the shower went down her body, the dirts on her body washed off. She felt calm and relaxed but she did not know why. She thought about what John said about her when she left the living room but the thought went away because she did not care about it. But she did not blame them for not trusting her, she understood why. She now understand everything that was going on, why her father is on the run and also about the chemical. But she still wanted to see her father, she wanted to talk to him so he can stop all these before things gets out of control or before he ends up killing someone. She knew that if she stay with Derick, eventually her father will come for him and she will meet him, because after all Derick is with his chemical. She finished with the shower, she saw a towel in the bathroom and used it to cover her body. She left the bathroom and went to get her clothes. Luckily for her, her clothes were not dirty because she was wearing th

Derick stood up from his chair, “Where is your kitchen?” He asked John. John did not understand why Derick asked where the kitchen was but he just replied, “It is right there.” John pointed at the kitchen. “Thanks.” Derick went to the kitchen leaving Celia and John alone in the living room. John and Celia looked at each other as they wondered why Derick went to the kitchen but as their eyes met they immediately removed their face from facing each other. Celia could tell that John did not like her but she did not care about that, she had never cared about what other people thought about her and definitely not now that she was going through a crises. And John did not like her because he never liked her behavior in school and with the prank she played on Derick confirmed it for him that she was not a good person. He still does not understand what Derick sees in her. They were still wondering why Derick went to the kitchen and then Derick came back to the living room holding a

“Well how do I put this, I bumped into Celia, I think she stole something from a store. I chased after her and protected her from some men trying to hurt her.” “That still doesn’t explain anything, what about your mother? Have you gone to the police?” John asked. “Sorry to interrupt.” Celia cut in. “You know the only reason I came here because you told me that you know something about my father.” She turned to Derick. “Seems like someone is really impatient here.” John said. “Why won’t I be, I have been on the run from the police for days now.” Celia replied. “All this won’t have happened if your father did not create the chemical in the first place.” John said. “You guys should relax.” Derick said. “I know we might be a little frustrated with everything that has been happening but we need to calm down.” Celia turned to David, “What does he mean by my father creating a chemical?” “Yeah, your father created a chemical that enhances the human abilities.
