Sparks | A NeonxReader story

Chapter 26

Y/N P.O.V.:

I slash with everything I had, and the strike was so powerful that it caused everything around us to get pushed away as the wind circled around us like a tornado. But all I could see was Reyna, blocking it with her hand. 

It wasn't possible, I should've gone right through her, I could cut anything with my power, but here she was, grabbing my sword like it was a baseball bat. 

I increased the amount of power I was putting into it, "It's not possible", I said, desperately trying to get my blade to cut, but I couldn't. 

She smirked at me, "My dear, you have no idea", she said. 

I couldn't control it, my power was becoming more and more by the second, and the thing that was alarming, was that I had never reached this level of power before. 

My sword started to crack, blue thin cracks made its way along the blade, until finally, my power had become to great, and the sword exploded. 

It shattered like a piece of glass, the shards flying in every direction, leaving cuts in reality behind them. I was sent flying back, shards of metal being sent through my body, as I got knocked away. 

I land and roll across the hard concrete floor, until I finally come to a stop. I cough blood as my head drops to the floor. 

'How? How was this possible?' I thought. My thoughts were interrupted with the sound of cracking. I knew that sound to well, and it was bad, very bad. I look up and see that reality had been cut by the flying shards, and I couldn't sustain it. I let go, and the cuts close, which destroys everything in the room, the room itself started to fall apart. 

I couldn't move I rolled over, to see the ceiling above me start to crack, and break, until a massive piece of concrete fell right over me. I braced for the impact, and put my arms in front of my face to try and protect myself. 

Suddenly the boulder explodes, sending pieces and dust everywhere around me. I look out to see Neon, standing beside me, trying to help me up, she was saying something but I couldn't hear her, my ears were ringing. 

She pulled me up, and helps me walk as I stumble, all I can see around me was the room swirling around me, pieces of debris falling, I was barely able to move. 

We move quickly out of the room, and try to get out of the lab as fast as we could, the whole building was collapsing. 

We eventually made it to the exit, just in the nick of time, her parents had helped me so we could move faster. The lab collapsed behind us, sending dust and debris everywhere, I couldn't see, and as far as I knew, Neon had let me go and I was on the floor. 

I was still struggling to come to my senses after the explosion, I could process anything at the moment. 

I noticed  that I couldn't feel my right arm, the one holding my sword, when I looked down at it, and I almost passed out. It was completely lacerated, the shards of my sword had cut through my arm and left it almost completely amputated from my body. The lacerations followed up my arm, to my chest and my entire right side, most of them being around my arm. 

I cry out in pain, I had never experienced something so excruciatingly painful. I lied in a pool of my own blood, as blood seeped out of every cut. 

My vision started to become blurry, and I was starting to fall out of it. As everything around me started to become just a blur of colors, I saw blue, and a little mix of yellow, and then everything faded away. 

I woke up as fast as I had fallen unconscious, I was standing. I look around, startled and shocked from what just happened. 'Where am I?' I thought. 

I looked around, and I couldn't help but feel like this place was familiar. I walked around for a few minutes, before I saw something, in the distance. The backs of three people, about 25 feet away from me. 

I squinted my eyes, trying to see them better, but I didn't have to, they turned around, and that's when I saw them. My family, standing right there in front of me. 

I walked towards them, unable to understand what was going on, closer and closer I got. I stood face to face with my mother, completely broken seeing them in front of me. 

She raised her hand and when she put it on my cheek, I felt it. They were right there, it wasn't like my nightmares. A blinding light started to form around us, and after a few seconds I couldn't see.

Neon's P.O.V.:

I knelt down beside him, shocked. He looked like he had been sent through a slide of sawblades. He was in a pool of his own blood, and his eyes, were lifeless. 

I started to freak out, my heart was breaking at the sight of him dead. I had never acted like this before. If someone died, we knew Sage would just bring them back. But seeing him dead, right in front of me, broke something inside of me. 

My tears started to fall, and I desperately tried to stop them. I didn't know why I was crying, because he was dead, but he wasn't gone. 

I couldn't help him, and I couldn't help myself either. I yelled out, hoping to some higher power that Sage would hear me, and save him. 

I begged, begged that someone would come and help me. I was so desperate, that I couldn't even think rationally. 

Eventually, Brimstone became visible through the dust, and ran up to us. 

He looked just as shocked as I was. 

"Oh my God", he said. 

Brimstone quickly picked him up in his arms, and started running, I could only assume that he was running towards Sage, so I followed, my parents close behind. 

We made it through the dust, and out into a clearing around the lab, where I saw Sage next to a ship. 

"Sage!", Brimstone yelled, getting her attention. 

She turned and waited for us to come, as Brimstone laid him down on the ground in front of her. 

Sage looked devastated, and started to shake, kneeling down. "How did this happen?", she asked.

He- His sword it- his powers were-", I couldn't speak, I was so stressed out, and I had too many emotions going on to say a complete question. 

Sage started to move her hands, and focused her power around him. Ice started to surround him, as he was lifted into the air. 

'Please' I thought as I watched. In and instant, the ice broke, leaving just him, in the air. He fell to the ground and landed on his feet. 

I was relieved to say the least, after what happened to the last 'Agent Shatter' I was worried that he may not have come back. 

But he didn't look the same, his face, looked devastated, and tears were in his eyes. "They were right there, just for a second I saw them. . .Why? Why would you bring me back?", he said. 

He collapsed on the ground, unconscious. 

He somehow managed to exhaust himself to such a state that even when Sage had resurrected him, he was still completely out of energy from the accident.

Hey y'all, hope you liked the chapter. I will say that I kinda rushed it, and was really undecisive with it, and yeah, but I hope you still enjoyed it. Thanks for reading.
