Elle woke up to an empty bed, her husband was away on tour so it was just her and Sam. She groaned when she noticed what day it was as she looked at the calendar. It was the date that her best friend was declared dead. He was her rock until he had disappeared without a trace. So she dragged herself out of bed to get herself ready and make some breakfast for herself and Sam.
"Come on buddy, we have to get ready for school." She told the young boy who gave her a sleepy smile. He slowly got out of his bed and walked to the kitchen before he and his mother and sat at the breakfast table. She smiled as she gave him his pancakes. He thanked her as she turned back to drink her coffee. She was in her scrubs just waiting for Sam so she could drop him off at school before she went to work.
"I'll see you when I pick you up from Grandma's." She told him as she walked him to the school. He gave her a hug as she kissed him on the head. She watched as he walked inside with a soft smile on her face.
As she walked into the hospital, she was pulled straight into an emergency. The patient had two police guards with him.
"28 year old male, suffered multiple lacerations and lost a lot of blood." One of the paramedics informed us.
"Ok, Brody clean the wounds so we can assess what we're dealing with." Dr Dickenson ordered her as she started with the alcohol solution to help preventing further infection. She had done as she was instructed.
"What happened to him?" Elle asked one of the nurses as he was getting stitched up.
"Apparently a guy in a mask with some weird sword. The tip was shaped like a scyhth." She informed her. "Well the guy in there is a well known sex trafficker so I think he is helping clean up the city." Elle was intrigued by this new vigilante. She had never heard anything like it.
Y/N was living in an abandoned warehouse. He had money but he couldn't use it. Not without being tracked as he was now branded a traitor. Just like his parents. He decided that he would come home to protect the city where he grew up and found his old best friend Elle still here. He never thought that he would see her again. He missed her green eyes but he would protect her with everything he is.
He had always loved her from when they shared their first kiss. They were both thirteen. During that moment, he knew he also wanted to be her last but circumstances changed. As much as he wants to be with her, he learned that she is now married with a son. Although he hadn't seen the husband. He ate a cold tin of beans he had stolen from the local store. Lucky for him he is quick and agile and has had over a decade worth of training. El Detynia saw to it that he was highly trained. They wanted him to become the best weapon they have. Which is what he had become but he never wanted it. His parents never wanted. Once he was finished eating he decided that he would take to the shadows and watch over the city. He was like a real life Batman but without the suit and the wealth. Also without everyone thinking he was dead. Everyone that had knew him growing up, thought he was dead. They confirmed that after months of searching for him and coming up empty handed.
As Elle left the hospital with her jacket, she walked to her car ready to go and pick up Sam. Little did she know that Y/N always remained close to her. He felt the need to protect her and keep her safe whether she knew it or not.
"I wish you were here Y/N." She whispered as she looked up to the sky before she got in the car. She didn't realise that he was there for her. He didn't want her to know. It is safer that way.
Once he had lost sight of her car he decided to look for trouble. He remembered when he was younger that the police weren't exactly the best around here. He soon saw a woman in the alley beside the ATM Vestibule being harrassed by a group of men. He hated the scene before him as he watched her start to scream before one of them put their hand over her mouth. That was when he decided to help her.
He was quiet when he climbed down the fire escape and landed softly behind the group of men who were attempting to 'have some fun' as he heard one say to the woman. He started to fight them from behind, he didn't use his khopesh as they were all sloppy. Once each of them were knocked out he just gave her a nod before he decided to run off into the darkness.
As Elle was cleaning up after she had put Sam to bed, she noticed that the news are now calling this vigilante The Son of the Darkness. She chuckled slightly thinking that it is a bit long winded. She watched as someone had managed to catch some footagr of them running down the alley until all you could see was darkness. There was something about the way he ran that was familiar to her but she couldn't what. So she just shrugged and poured herself some wine and decided to put on Miss Congeniality as Sam was fast asleep. She spent the rest of her night wondering about this unknown man and why he has only just surfaced. All of these questions that she will not get an answer to. Juat not yet anyways.
