[HIATUS-ish] From Zero to Inferno (Fire Force X Reader)

(Alt. Ending) The Return of the Knight King

Alternate Ending of Chapter 3: The Sweetheart Ending

------------------------

(This is a scenario where you have a concussion after Maki slams your head on the rooftop.)

Y/N: Note to self- What was I thinking about again?

Shinra: How are you still walking?

Y/N: I just follow where the stars take me.

Arthur: That seems like a concussion. Princess, are you okay?

Y/N: I'm fine. Where are we at again?

Shinra: That's a concussion.

Akitaru: We'll be sure to stop by a hospital after we finish our noodles.

Your face slams into the bowl of noodles.

Noodle Chef: I-Is she okay?

Akitaru: We'll need to get that checked now.

Shinra: (Y/N)?

You don't respond back.

(After the quick flashback of Maki slamming you.)

Shinra: Where's the hospital sir?

Akitaru: It's just to the right of here.

Shinra: I'll take her there.

Akitaru: No, we can-

He takes a moment to think.

Akitaru: Nevermind. You sure you can handle taking her to the hospital?

Shinra: Of course, sir.

Akitaru: Alright. If they tell you the result of the injury, just say she fell on some stairs.

Shinra: Got it sir.

Akitaru: We'll save some noodles for you, just make sure to come back.

Shinra leaves the restaurant as he carries you on his back.

Always so reckless. Yet, she's always like this. Planning out an idea. But...

Shinra stops as he smiles look back at his memories.

She's always willing to risk anything. Even if it's for happiness. But why?

- Back in Middle School -

"It's always Shinra this, Shinra that! Just stop talking about him!"

"Tch. You're sticking up for him?! After what he did?!"

"He never did it!"

"You can say that to the other people that saw him did it!"

"THE HOUSE WAS ON FIRE! HOW IN THE HELL DID THEY KNOW?!"

"Well.... Well!!!"

He couldn't think up of anything.

"Tch!"

The boy runs away as you look back at Shinra, holding a hand for him.

"Why do you always stand up for me?"

"Because I just don't want you to get bullied! That kind of negative impact affects your mental health!"

- Back in the present -

Shinra: Thinking about it now, You've always been a hero for me. I think it's time that I've become a hero for you (Y/N).

Y/N: My...

You make a heart shape on his chest with your finger.

Y/N: Hero~.

Shinra blushes a bit as he continues to walk you to the hospital, allowing you to rest for a bit.
