You're Still There For Me- Danger/Thunderman

Darkness

Henry's p.o.v

Darkness...

That was what I saw...

Nothing else...

Complete darkness....

I looked around and I still saw the same shade of black. Nothing changed. I inhaled deeply as I took in the nasty scent of wood and paint. Where was I? Another warehouse maybe? I didn't know. I heard footsteps that made chills go up my spine. I squinted but still saw nothing.

The darkness made me uncomfortable. It started to bring me back to a bad state of mind. Before I met Pheobe, before I was Kid Danger, before I was... happy..

It felt like one of those days I was being kicked around by my so called, parents. If I should even call tnem back. Parents are people in your life who cares for you and nurses you. Someone who helps you with your homework or kisses your booboo's to make them better as a kid, someone to whips your tears away... Someone who will intend you wedding and cheer once you give your vows...

But I never had that and never will. Yes, my life is going great now but I still have those times I wonder how it'll be like if I had parents, real parents who loved me... for me...

I was breathing heavily and started to feel the same lightheadedness I felt earlier, except this time, I wasn't inhaling anything toxic. It was the right air around me making me feel this way. I felt two hands grab my shoulders and I started to shake almost uncontrollably.
What's happening to me?...

"Henry?! Henry!"

I heard someone speak around me. It sounded like it was my father's voice calling me. No, it couldn't be... H-he's in prison... It just can't be. His voice isn't soft or gentle. In fact, it's the pollar opposite. I never heard him talk in a gentle voice. Not once.
This voice though, sounded much more concerned and gentle.

I felt the sensation of being shook again and I blinked heavily and flinched.

Suddenly, my vision went clear. I saw the man standing infront of me. He was crouched down by my level and removed some of my blonde hair from my eyes. I looked up and saw a man with dark brown hair. He had cuts and bruises around his face and neck. His arm was slightly bleeding and he had a black eye. My eyes widened as In realized the man infront of me was... Ray..

It couldn't be Ray. He was indestructible. He couldn't get hurt. Who was this badly injured man?

"Come on, Kid! We have to go!" I heard him yell as he tried to pull apart the rope around my arms and hands. Have I really not noticed my arms have been tide up? They were numb anyway.

I was still. As in, I couldn't move. Mt legs wouldn't work. They were frozen. I was still stuck in this position. It was all too real. The darkness, the voice, the ropes and the capturing.

"Come on, Henry! There not in the room! This is our chance to go!" Ray tried to left me off the ground but my legs still felt weak. My vision was also still a blur.

3rd person p.o.v

"I guess Captain Man is now powerless..." A large men said as he stood over both Ray and Henry. It was the same man that was in the store earlier. The same man they saw in the video. Tall, blonde, tattoos. Was even scarier in person.

"Glad your little sidekick could make it." The man snickered as Ray glared daggers but his eyes adverted to the 16 year old boy who was basically quivering in fear behind him. Usually, he wouldn't back down from a little fight or measly insult, but right now. He wasn't mentally with them. Maybe physically but in his mind, he was back in the place that should of been called his home. That dark depressing place that he's been abused in for so long. Even when he's in a safe environment, he can't escape it. Especially when he's on missions. That's a whole nother story. He'll be in danger and always feels like he is.

"Come on, kid. We can take him." Ray got up and extended his fist outward in a fighting stance. He looked down at the boy still on the ground and shaking frantically.
"Kid--"
"Enough of this! You stand down or we fight!" The man exclaimed as he stepped foward with his fist clenched tightly. Ray looked up at him with clamly eyes and a hand out in reassuring way.
"Look, who are you and what do you want with us?" Ray asked the taller man. He stopped and had this most disgusting smirk on his face as he nodded.
"You might not know me..." He began, but then looked at the kid on the floor.
"But he sure does..." He pointed to Henry.

Ray looked at both the man and his sidekick with a raised eyebrow.
"What are you--"
"I know who your kid is, Captain Man... He's Henry Hart..." The man stated with his smirk still plastered on his face.
Ray nearly gasped. How did this man know? Did Henry know him too?

"How do you guys know eachother?" Ray asked as he glared at the man.
He stood up straight as he walked closer to Ray, making him back up, uncomfortably.
"My name is Alfred Ivis. I've known Henry since he was a toddler. I'm well aware his parents got arrested." He lifted his chin up high as Ray nodded.
"Yeah, only because they were abusing him for years." Ray confirmed as Alfred nodded with a devious smile.
"I was friends with his parents. I had much to do with it then they did." Alfred smirked.

Ray faltered slightly at this new information. He looked at Henry again and saw he was now covering his ears and rocking back and forth or a panicking way. His eyes were skewed shut and was still shaking as ever before.

Ray nelt down to him and put a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry kid, we'll call the police--"
"I wouldn't do that if I were you..." The man grumbled with much clenched fist. "You're powerless now..." He smirked as Ray looked down at his beaten up self. He never felt this much pain for so long. He's Captain Man! The pain should be gone now.
"I'm also the reason for Henry's sister--" He was interrupted by a whispy noise and just then, his body completly froze. Ray was also frozen, but frozen in shock. All was quiet, except for the sound of Henry's intense breathing.

Soon, a girl with long brown curly hair came out from behind the man with a look of worry but also satisfaction. It was Thundergirl!

Pheobe bolted over to Ray and Henry in concern.
"Thanks, Thundergirl!" Ray smiled at her and she shrugged.
"Superhero's have to stick together." She smiled back but it sooned disappeared when she looked at Henry's state.

"What happened?" She asked in panic.
"No time to explain! We have to get out of here!" Ray shouted as he tried to pull Henry to his feet with the help of Pheobe.

Pheobe was completely lost. Ray was too. Henry just froze up. Without even being hurt, captured, inslaved! He just... froze up and they didn't know why. They didn't even get to hear what Alfred had to say about Henry's sister... They didn't even know Henry had a sister! These were question they needed answers too...
