Next Gen Hero

Aftershock

Y/N POV

I gasp opening my eyes. Immediately pain courses through my body. But I push it to the side.

Y/N: "I really hope I'm immortal."

I laugh but stop feeling my chest ache.

Y/N: "Wonder if anything's broken."

I poke my chest. Instantly I feel three ribs scream at me.

Y/N: "Yep, something's definitely broken. But, it's better than death."

I groan rolling onto my chest. With the hard part done I try to get up but feel pain in my leg. Looking I see my knee out of place.

Y/N: "Crap, dislocated knee. That's gonna take awhile to heal."

I sigh when I hear something coming my way. I try to see what it is but there's too much dust. Suddenly a scream is heard. A jagged metal pipe is then rammed through my stomach. I scream in pain when a voice is heard.

Jason: "You're just a stubborn sonova bitch arentch ya?"

I reach for him but he twists the pipe ripping further into my body.

Jason: "I try to kill you with bombs but you just walk it off like it ain't no thing. Guess I'll just have to kill up close and personal."

He withdraws a gun. Cocking it back he aims it between my eyes.

Jake: "My boss tasked me with making sure you and your precious daughter got off his tail. Said he needed more time. No idea what he meant, don't really care. I'm just glad I get to kill the great hero."

Voice: "Get away from him!!!"

Noir flies in kicking his jaw. He stumbles hitting a rubble formation. It shakes making the top fall down. Jason looks at it and smiles.

Jason: "Got me."

He's hit getting crushed like a grape. I sigh in relief when I pass out.

Noir POV

I turn around and run to dad's side.

Noir: "Stay with me dad! I'll get you out of here!"

I make a call sending for help. A couple minutes later I watch as my dad's loaded into an ambulance. Later that day mom and I reach his room as uncle Ozpin and grandma Glynda walk to us.

Blake: "How is he?"

Ozpin: "Despite being skewered and blown up, he's well."

We sigh in relief.

Glynda: "The explosion really got him. The doctor's say it's nothing short of a miracle he's alive."

Noir: "Do they know the extent of the damage?"

Ozpin: "Not yet. A doctor's gonna look over him in about half an hour."

Blake: "Thank you."

They nod leaving us. I look down as tears fall onto the floor.

Blake: "What's wrong sweetie?"

Noir: "It's all my fault."

She puts her hand on my back.

Blake: "It is not your fault."

Noir: "But it is!!!"

She leans back.

Noir: "I tried to solve a stupid case and got myself captured. Dad tried to save me and now he's unconscious. Oum if only I was stronger. Maybe then he wouldn't be in this situation."

Mom wraps me in a hug laying my head on her chest.

Blake: "Don't ever blame yourself for what's happened. Your father has always been known to take a beaten. Heck, one time we thought he was never gonna see again. But you know what? He always comes back stronger than before. That's one of the many reasons I love him. No matter how much he's beaten into the dirt, he always gets right back up. Your dad is the strongest man I know. When all of this is over he's gonna be on his feet ready for the next fight."

Noir: "Promise?"

She kisses my nose.

Blake: "I guarantee it."

She offers a smile. I return it resuming our hug.

Noir: "I love you mom."

Blake: "I love you too sweetie."

We stand there just hugging and enjoying each other's warm embrace.
