(Chapter 3) Refusal Of the return
After the battle DJ and I went to look for S. I was leaping and bounding over the buildings with him holding onto my shell for dear life. I let out a small chuckle at him and continued to run. After about ten minutes we stumbled upon S. Who was unconscious in an alley.
I climbed down the fire escape of the building we were standing on landing abruptly next to her.
DJ immediately rushed to her side and held her in his arms. A bit of jealousy washing over me, I stood protectively over DJ as S awoke.
"S are you okay? What happened?" DJ shouted
"S-Someone a-attacked m-me...." S stuttered groggily.
Seeing her so out of commission my jealousy was quickly replaced with worry. I kneeled down next to where DJ held her and check her for injuries. Only finding some slight bruising I sighed in relief.
S looked us back and forth. "W-What a -about p-p-patrol..." She stuttered.
I looked at her confidently. "We aren't going on patrol ever again".
DJ held S close and stood up smiling as he did.
I smiled back as we began walking to the lair. This was the beginning of our new life. A new life without any fighting or killing. Just a lot of happiness.
2 Years Later
"Mommy!" came a little voice as did the pitter-patter of little feet running across the wood floor.
I smiled and looked down from what I was cooking to see my four year-old daughter Lucy.
"Mommy! Raven broken!" She shouted. In her right hand was her Raven figure and in her left was one of her legs.
I sighed and looked around to find DJ nowhere. I looked back down to find tears welling up in her eyes. "L-Luce I'm sorry uh here hand her to me and I'll fix her soon okay pumpkin" I hurried out hoping to avoid another fit form the four year old.
"Okay Mommy.... but take good care of her okay...?" She spoke softly as she put the toy in my outstretched hand.
"I will, I promise." I said as I kissed her head.
She giggled and ran off her blonde pig-tails bouncing around as she did.
I smiled and continued to cook putting the toy in my belt. Before I could pour the soup into the bowls though I was startled by the unpleasant surprise of arms wrapped around my waist. I jumped a bit glaring at the man standing behind me.
"DJ Stone..." I spat roughly my anger rising.
"Ashley Stone." He replied mockingly, a smugly satisfied smirk crossing his features.
I elbowed him in the gut, chuckling at him gasping for air and grabbing his stomach.
"You're so mean to me." He said as he ruffled my hair with a pout on his lips.
"Aw, is the poor little boy upset." I mocked as I finished putting the soup in the bowls.
He just shook his head and walked off to our room.\
