Sorry for the long absence. I have been very busy with High School. At first, I was just going to update one of my older stories, but I decided I want a fresh start. I've had this story in mind since I watched the Vanishing. I was dissapointed how little Marcus' role was in the episode, and how quickly they killed him off again, twice.

So I decided I'd write a story that continued Marcus' storline after the Vanishing. Eventually this story might have a plot, but until then each chapter will be a semi-connected oneshots. A plot may develop later down the road, and if it does, it does.

Here it is.

Disclaimer: I don't own Lab Rats or it's characters, because if I did, it certaintly wouldn't be on Disney. But, unfortunately, I only own the storyline that may or may not develop.

Chapter 1

The House was quiet. Donnie, Tasha, Bree, and Chase were asleep. Adam, Leo, and Daniel had left for the Academy hours ago.

But there was someone who was awake. The hooded figure moved silently through the halls . He winced when one of the tiles on the floor creaked as he stepped on it. He stood still and silent as he listened for a taletell sign that someone had awokened. Tasha coughed and rolled over, but otherwise made no other noise. The figure breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued on his latenight journey. On the way, he deactivated Eddy. He couldn't have the crazy emoticon alerting everyone to his activities.

The figure made it to the elevator, and pressed the button for the lab. As he descended, he removed his hood. It was Douglas.

…

The elevator dinged. Douglas entered the lab, and accessed the monitor that was once Leo's mission specialist desk before the Academy. He opened up one of the storage compartments in the floor, and up popped a box filled with melted, mangled metal and loose parts.

Douglas fell to his knee's around the box. Tears fell from his face as he beheld what was once his greatest creation. He beheld his son, Marcus Davenport.

…

When Donnie had allowed Douglas to be more involved in Adam, Bree, Chases, and Leo's lives, it was the happiest day of his own life. He thought it might help him feel better about the crimes of his past, even though he was constantly feeling guilty as the effects of his past life had dire results for his family, and the world. But still, Douglas still didn't feel complete.

When Giselle Vickers, his once-girlfriend, came back into his life, he had hoped getting back together with her would make him feel complete. But she turned out to be evil, and he felt even more alone.

Then he received a phone call from Daniel, and he was filled with hope. But he wasn't sure if he was ready to be a full-time dad. Because, even if he wouldn't admit it to himself, he still felt guilty about how he treated Marcus.

Of course, Daniel still became a part of his life, and he was happier than he had ever been. But for some reason, he still felt incomplete, and he couldn't identify why.

Then Giselle came back, and she revealed that she had rebuilt Marcus. A hope started to grow within him as he realized he had felt so incomplete because he wanted to make it up to Marcus, and have him back in his life.

But that hope was quickly diminished as Marcus revealed himself to be even more evil than before. That hope quickly became guilt and desperation.

Then Douglas was forced to allow Daniel to kill Marcus.

"I can finally say I created a kid I'm proud of."Douglas said joyfully, his arm around Daniel. But that joy was a smoke screen to hide his grief over the second death of Marcus.

But there was still hope. Douglas could rebuild Marcus and reprogram him to be good. But Donnie and the kids said "No!".

"Fine."Douglas thought to himself. "I'll rebuild him when they're not paying attention."

But that hope was quickly squashed when Marcus revealed that Giselle had programmed him with the ability to regenerate. Marcus was going to try to kill Leo, so Douglas was forced to choose.

Douglas chose to blast Marcus, melting him to down and leaving him incapable of regenerating.

And tearing an enourmous hole in Douglas' heart.

…

"I'm sorry, Marcus."Douglas said, hours later whilst eberyone else was asleep. Douglas still wasn't completely sure what made him come down here. Maybe he needed closure.

'I'm Sorry, Marcus. I created you to be evil, knowing you had a short lifespan, hoping you could capture Adam, Bree, and Chase for me before you died. I abused you. I wasted your life for revenge when I could have been a true father towards you. And, instead of searching for a way to prolong your life, I focused on creating and expanding more on my bionic technology for my associate's."

Douglas sniffled and wiped away some tears, but then decided better of it and just let them fall.

"I promise you, Marcus, I will not make the same mistakes with Daniel that I made with you. "

Suddenly, Douglas felt complete. He got the closure he had come for. The tears stopped falling.

"Everyone else hates you . I don't. I pity you. Maybe someday, I'll rebuild you."

Douglas sighed. He sat on his knees for a minute more, then stood, grunting.

"Anyways, I've got to go. Big day tomorrow, especially for Bree and Chase."Douglas cracked a smile at the thought on the look of the young bionic's faces when they realized who their new teammates were. But Douglas would not be seeing it, because he would be heading to the Academy tomorrow.

He left, and for once, he felt complete.

But he made two stupid, maybe deadly mistakes. One, he left Marcus' remains in the open. And two, he left Eddy deactivated.

…

Marcus awoke in agony. He felt as if he had been lit on fie, electrocuted, and dumped in water. He struggled to stand, but his form felt like it was incapable of standing. He regenerated, slowly, painfully, as if his parts were constrained.

But he succeeded, and he stood. He morphed into his human form.

He was in the Davenports lab. He sneered. Their home security system sucked. But his analysis of the house indicated that it had purposefully been deactivated.

They thought that they were so safe. But he'd show them. No one is safe anymore, anywhere, he thought with satisfaction.

He'd get his revenge. But first, he would need to upgrade. He was alone, and didn't stand a chance against all of them. He wasn't ready.

But he would be, soon. Until then, he would let them complete their work. But evetnually, he'd prove, yet again, he was their greatest challenge, and always would be.

Marcus geo-leaped away.

…

…To be Continued?

So, what did you guys think of it. I'm thinking that the next chapter will be set during Elite Force, after the new team faced a challenge and new enemies.

Then I'll bring in old and new characters to go up against Marcus.

Until next time.
