Feel You Now (Oneshots)

Save Me (K)

Superhero AU (Warning: Angst/character death)

"Don't let go." He begged.

His grip was tight, but their sweaty palms caused Emma to slip little by little. Grabbing the top of the railing with all his might he tried to pull her up.Wincing as his injuries from fighting Magno weakened him.

"It's alright E. Let go." Emma calmly said.

"No. I won't let you die on me." Ethan said.

His mask was shielding his facial expressions, but his eyes were giving away his pain.

It wasn't fair. Emma had just over thrown the man who made her life miserable, yet she couldn't get her happy ending.

No. Magno was too vindictive to let his toy go. He had to break it to ensure no one would be able to play with it.

Emma licked her dry lips, "I'm only weighing you down."

Her eyes were drowsy and her breathing was shallow. He could feel her grip loosening.

Then she said the words he was dreading. The two words that deep down he knew were true. She fought hard against Magno and was bleeding out before he had even thrown her off the building.

"I'm dying." Emma said.

"No you're not. We're going to get you some help and you'll be fine." Ethan said.

"Stop Ethan. You need to let go. I had my chance to live and I blew it. Don't let our bond blind you to what I am."

"What you were." Ethan argued.

She sighed," I am and always will be a villain Ethan. You're doing the world a favor by letting me die. I deserve to pay for all the harm I've done." Emma said

"Don't take this away from me Ethan. I can finally make things right. If you don't let go you'll die with me, and I can't allow that. You above everyone else in this world deserves to live. That heart of gold and pure soul you have is rare to come across. Don't let my last act on earth be a selfish one." Emma continued..

"I can't do it." Ethan cried.

"Then let me do it for you." Emma said.

She dug her nails into his skin and in a split second she was gone. Emma looked peaceful as she fell down the building. Arms spread wide as the wind made her hair flow gently around her. The last thing he saw before he turned his head was her radiant smile. The loud thump on the ground indicating that she had landed broke him. Triggering the emotions he was holding back for her sake.

He rushed down to see his fallen angel.

Falling onto his knees he grabbed her limp body and cradled it. Almost in disbelief that it was truly her. How did a strong, defiant women end up so fragile and broken? He watched her commit crime after crime as Magno's sidekick.Ethan even fought her one on one, so he knew what a deadly opponent she could be.However, as she laid there looking innocent and pure he couldn't help, but feel guilty for being too late.

He treated her as a villain and failed to treat her like a human being. If he would have taken a second to see her as a person rather than an enemy than he could have saved her sooner.Given her the help to overcome her toxic relationship with Magno years ago rather than weeks.

These last few fights they hadn't been careful and Magno realize what Ethan had been doing to Emma. He had given her her freedom and her ability to think for herself again, and Magno wouldn't allow that. When a pet doesn't obey you punish them, but not even that worked on her anymore. His abuse only seemed to push her further into Cobalt's (Ethan's) hands. Well, you know what they say. Out with the old and in with the new. If his pet wouldn't obey then it was time to get a new one. However, he couldn't allow her to move on with her life. Magno's not the type to let the past come back to bite him in the ass later, so he did what he had to do. He needed to kill her.

Ethan continued to hug her body and whisper his apologies over and over again. Praying that no one would see the great superhero succumb to human emotions.

At last he finally heard the sirens and it was time to leave. His fingers placed a loose strand of hair behind her ear, and lingered slightly on her face as he gave her one last caress.

Ethan leaned down and placed a soft kiss on her blue lips. One that he's been patiently waiting to do for days now. It was suppose to be the first of many.

He laid her gently back down onto the pavement, and fled.

........

Ethan ignored his butler and associate James when he walked through the front door of his mansion. He quickly made his way to his room and locked it. Making his way to the bathroom to change out of his clothes.

He paused and looked at himself in the mirror. Hardly recognizing the man covered in blood that was looking back at him. His body was sore and screaming at him to tend to his wounds. However, the only pain he felt was on the left side of his chest.

Making his way to the bed was difficult. Everything felt heavy and stiff, but he eventually made it. Tossing himself onto the bed and closing his eyes.

Dreaming of a different world.

One where the girl with the blue eyes lived.

The end.

AN: Oneshot I promised weeks ago. Lowkey sad af today (more like this week), so most of my writing is depressing as hell right now.

I finally got settled into second semester. Most of you know that I use to write in the morning before my 8 am class started, but that's no longer possible. However, I do have some breaks in between classes and i get bored easily, so i'm slowly picking back up my frequent upload schedule. Really appreciate you guys for sticking around <3
