The Tiger Virago 2: Duty or Heart (Henry Danger fanfic)

1. The sunset

Hey guys,

Thanks for choosing to the second book of The Tiger Virago. This will be the second official book of my Henry Danger series and to say I'm excited is an understatement. Roxy and Henry are my favorite couple. It's probably because their relationship is more passionate than any other relationship I've written about.

If you have any questions or anything you want to tell me, don't be scared to comment about it. Don't forget to vote!

Enjoy!

We were waiting on the sunset.

It was the night before senior year and to say we were excited was an understatement. I didn't know about the rest but I personally was glad this was the last year I had to be in school. There was no way I was going to college even though my mother had kept on begging me to go. A part of me wanted to go just for my mother's sake. She had been through a lot in past year and I was sad to leave her back in Zambia. But the Ziabali tribe had promised to protect her and they knew if that didn't happen I would slaughter them all. I had gotten a personal assurance from King Joman. I trusted him now even though he was still trying to make me his queen.

I don't know why you like that white boy, he would say. I always gave him a smile and said I still don't know why myself.

It was fate that we were together, that was what I believed. I still couldn't believe, after three years, he is still the only person that is not scared of the darkness in me, my true nature, the tiger. He was special in every way possible. I watched him laugh at something with Jasper. I loved him; his smile, his brown eyes that would always bright up when he's happy but became dull when he was sad or serious. I loved his mentality even though I had to admit it was closer to the dumb side. He was kind, loyal and brave. He was fierce when it came to protecting Swellview and more importantly his friends and family.

I love him.

Have I told him that? No. But he hadn't said anything either. For the first time ever since I became the tiger virago, I was scared of something. Jasper passed me a bottle of root beer and I frowned.

"You know I don't drink this right?" I told him.

"Just try it."

"Pass the water before I roll your body all over this ground." I told him and he passed the water with a smile.

"Thank you." I said as I opened the cap.

"Wow, you were polite just now." Jasper said as he stood up from his rock and walked closer to me. I looked him up and down. Only one person was allowed in my personal space. Why does he always forget? Henry stood as well and went over to me. He crouched down to my level and whispered in my ear,

"Follow me."

I smiled as I stood up ignoring henry's hand to lift me up. "I can stand up on my own."

"I was being a gentleman." he said.

"Gentleman?" I said with a scoff and then walked away in front of me. We then started a playful argument if Henry was gentleman- enough. I watched him as he gave me points as we walked away from Jasper and Charlotte. Henry had grown more handsome over the years. He didn't have the boyish voice he had during freshman year. His voice was more deeper and sexier along with his jawline becoming prominent. He was six feet now, taller than Ray and he had gained more muscles since.

"You're tempting me now with that look." he said, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"What look?" I asked innocently. He walked towards me. With a smile, he grabbed my waist and pulled me to him. I put my arms around his neck and looked up at him, patiently waiting for a kiss.

"That look." He stooped down and kissed me. I could feel my whole body light up as he pulled me closer to him. I kissed him harder. I pulled away later on knowing that if we continued here, there was no way were going back to our friends.

"Is this why you brought us out here?" I asked him. I look into his cute brown eyes that seemed to be lit from excitement.

"Maybe." he said. He pressed his lips on mine sweetly before saying, "No. I've been wanting to tell you something all summer but I didn't want to say it on the phone." I nodded to show that I was listening. "I....."

I raised my hand. Henry knew by now that meant that I could hear or see something and it was time to be quiet. I walked quietly and swiftly to the bush that was in front of us and pulled Schwoz out. He had a camera in hand. I grabbed his ear and pulled it. "Ow, shtop hurting me." He said in his weird russian accent.

"What's with you and taking pictures of us?" I asked.

"That is so weird." Henry said as he took the camera and looked at it.

"I am really tempted right now to pull this ear of since you never listen to me. This is your last warning. I swear if I find you again...." I let go of his ear and he grabbed his camera and ran.

"If Schwoz was here that means..." Henry started but was interrupted by shouting.

"Idiot lovebirds. Get your butts over here!" Ray's voice rang and I winced in pain at the sound.

"Are you okay?" Henry asked.

"Yeah I'm fine. I was still using the tiger for listening." I said as I turned my ears back to normal. I took his hand and walked back to our friends. "Whatever you wanted to tell me, you can tell me later." I told him and for a bit he looked confused and unsure but agrees eventually. He smiles and places his hand on my butt until we reach the rest. When we join the rest, Henry goes immediately to Jasper.

"I brought alcohol!" Ray says excitedly as he pulls out some bottles of it. Charlotte and I look at each other the same time and shake our heads. He hands us bottles which we refuse but the boys as always get excited. Because they're dumb.

"You know that we are all underage right?" Charlotte says but Ray just shrugs.

"I am Captain Man! It doesn't matter." he says and the boys cheer.

I sit sown and tell Charlotte, "It's no use. Leave them to it. We'll laugh at them tomorrow morning when they get horrible hangovers."

"You're right." She says as she sits down beside me.

I looked around as we all laughed together. I had acquired a strange family but I would never change it. I hoped this year would be villain free but I knew that was asking too much. We first had Emaku, then Heiwa and Electro, then last summer when Jasper touched some Ziabali artefacts when he was is in the Ziabali tribe museum. We had to deal with an angry spirit. As we watched the sun set, we knew the school year had begun and we were all prepared for it.
