Diego Hargreeves daughter

CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR

Y/ns pov:

we walked out of the elevator, "hey, we're gonna make it out of this mess, alright? the four of us are gonna be fine." dad reassured.

"and then what?"

"and then we'll be a happy family." dad replied.

"no, we won't."

"alright, is this more of that bullshit proving-yourself-to-be-a-good-dad stuff. I'm over it, alright?"

"you passed, okay" mom said and she tried to walk off but dad stopped her. "wait, whoa, whoa...oh, this isn't about me, huh? oh, you're scared" he rested the gun in his shoulder.

mom chuckled as I stood behind them, I kept looking in between them. this is so awkward. "what if I fail our baby like...my mum failed me" mom looked as if she was about to cry.

"then You won't. because behind the crazy bullshit, there's a good decent person. "you sure?" "one thousand percent" mom laughed and sniffled.

they then kissed causing me to gag loudly "gross! kiss somewhere else!" I said jokingly as they both looked at me and laughed.

dad grabbed both our hands and started to walk "come on." we walked into a new corridor but stopped "did we end up back at the same elevator?".

—————————————————————————

we all stopped when we heard the bell ding, the vote shook as we all looked around "does no one listen to me?" asked dad irritated. "no, sweetie, we don't." mom replied as I stayed near them.

"who did it?" we turned a corner, we stopped and heard a. loud thud. we looked behind us and saw a shielded creature swinging a weapon.

it roared, "I think we should go" I said shakily. "right behind You." dad said.

we began running, I was at the front with mom in the middle and dad at the back. I didn't look back, I couldn't. I could hear it snarling and following after us.

dad repeatedly pressed on the elevator door "come on. come on!" he shouted waiting for it to open. we heard the guardian roar once more. I jumped back in fright.

"shit! we're gonna die!!" I shouted. "Diego, wait." mom said as dad walked over "screw this." he said as he turned the corner and threw a knife. the guardian dodged it and we watched it land in the wall.

mom grabbed another knife out of his waistband and threw it, it hit the guardian but didn't cause any damage. me, mom and dad then started throwing more knives at it.

they ran out of knives and we stared at it as it stared back. "nice shot, sweetie" mom laughed and panted. the guardian took the knife out of its face.

"oh fuck me."
"oh"
"shit."

the guardian snarled and walked towards us. we heard the elevator ding and we started running. dad held my arm as we ran "go,go,go,go,go,go,go!"

"press the button!" mom yelled as we ran in "okay, what floor? what floor?" "any One!" me and mom shouted.

as the door closed, the guardians knife came through and nearly hit mom, causing us to gasp. it took the blade out and we all panted.

——————————————————————————

we peaked our heads out of the elevator door as stepped out "I told you to go, okay?" dad walked behind us. "and let You die alone?" mom asked "what's the fun in that?" I asked as I laughed.

dad glared at me and turned to mom "and the baby?"

"you let me worry about that."

"no, I'm it's father."

"who has no part in the gestation of the baby for the next six months." mom said as we walked. I could feel the tension rising.

"so there's no way I can't convince you to sit this one out?" dad asked.

"finally, you're getting it."

dad grabbed moms arm and spun her around "you're right. I do." mom chuckled.

he then grabbed mom and threw her in a room "hey!" she yelled as he looked at me and I looked at him with worry. "I'm sorry y/n" he grabbed my arm and pushes me in.

"no! dad? dad!!" I yelled as I banged on the door. mom ran up "what do You think you're going?" she asked as dad locked the door.

"I'm protecting my family." he replied. I put out my hand and focused on the lock. my head started pounding. what is happening?

"let us out!" I yelled "no,no,no,no. Diego, don't leave us." mom pleaded "I'm sorry" he said through the door "you promised we'd always be together" she banged on the door.

"I know, I know."

"diego, no, no, no, no, no. don't do this" mom cried and my heart broke. "when the baby gets here, tell him or her about the man I was. The man I tried to be." I heard him walk away as tears were forming in my eyes.

"no, no, no, no, no, Diego. No, no.." mom pounded on the door "Diego! Diego!" she sobbed and kicked the door.

I hugged her "it's okay, mom...it's okay." I let a tear fall. "no it's not!" mom yelled as she cried.

after a while of waiting we heard viktor walk past "Five! Allison?" mom mimicked his powers and busted the door open. we both stepped out of the closet.

"Finally, someone with a power worth mimicking."

"lila? y/n? why were You two in a closet?" Viktor asked and mom looked behind him "i'll explain later...shit." they both faced the guardian.

mom pushed me behind her and viktor "I'm tired of running." my uncle spoke. "me too."

the guardian snarled as mom and viktor uses the same power, they turned blue as a light came out of their chests.

the guardian started running at us "this feels oddly familiar" mom spoke calmly "At least this time, we're not aiming at eachother." he responded.

they looked at eachother and back to the guardian that was still running to us. they sent an energy wave causing the guardian to fall backwards.

it landed on its back and sizzled, mom and viktor stopped using their powers and looked down at the samurai in satisfaction. mom laughed "let's go" we all walked the opposite way.
