Catastrophe-2

Unlucky Winner

I enjoyed writing this chapter so much. I hope you do too.

"You want to talk about what the hell that was?" I demand from Damian as he punches the sparring dummy.

"I don't have anything to say." He keeps punching his frustrations away.

"Well, I have plenty." Explode the dummy with my mind.

"What the hell?!" Damian yells at me.

"You're acting out more than normal. What is it, Damian? Why are you...you've always had a bantering relationship with Cisco but throwing knives at him and now Harry. What is going on with you?"

"There is nothing going on with me."

"Damian, please. I just want to be here to support you."

"I've tried reaching out to father and he...he won't respond to me."

"You reached out to him?" I ask confused. "Uh..."

"I don't understand why he's left me behind. Why he...mother is lost and now..."

"Your father is lost." Damian nods his head.

"I'm sorry for being too friendly with Rapunzel and dickface. I was just trying to be funny."

"Really?"

"I don't know if it's obvious or not but I've never had friends." Damian mutters. "I always had the League who...they never...I've never had people who argued with me the way this group has. I don't know how to handle it."

"You need to start showing them, love. Because when you let people in Damian, I'm telling you it's amazing." He looks at me.

"I'm never going to see father or my mother again will I?" Damian asks me and I see the vulnerability in him. He may act tough all the time but he's still a thirteen-year-old child who needs love.

"I can't speak of if you'll see your parents again but I can tell you this. You have a family who loves you and will always be here for you." I assure Damian.

"Does this mean I have to stop bickering with Rapunzel because I love it?" He admits and I bring him in for a hug despite him trying to push away from me.

"No keep bickering but keeping the throwing stars and blades to a minimum." I instruct him.

"Guys, the quantum field is getting higher." Damian and I rush into the lab seeing the destruction Becky is making.

"Mayday, this is Flight 512 to tower. Lost an engine and are coming down." A piolet says over the inner come.

"When did Hazard get so powerful?" Iris asks.

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, so..."

"The more good luck she experiences the more bad luck she spreads." Cisco explains.

"She must be experiencing an extreme level of good luck for her quantum filed to be expanding like this." Caitlin exclaims to us.

"Where is she now?" Barry asks.

"She went back to work." I answer him showing Becky's location at the casino. 

"Guys, if Becky keeps winning, then bad luck will keep spreading. This could destroy the whole city." Barry explains to us.

"Okay, keep calm. All right? Keep calm." Harry and Cisco try to ease Barry's worry.

"Nothing's going wrong here." A loud whirring sound gets our attention.
