Chapter 1
Third Person:
Henry and Charlotte are happily married, Henry still works as Ray's sidekick. Jasper also stayed in Swellview so thats good news.
Henry: Good Morning baby. Henry says as he comes down the stairs
Charlotte: Morning, how'd you sleep?
Henry: Fine, until i felt that you weren't next to me. Why are you up so early?
Charlotte: I had a bad dream and i couldn't really fall back asleep after that, so i just came downstairs.
Henry: Wanna talk about that bad dream?
Charlotte: Nah, i can't really remember it anyway.
Henry: Ok.
The day went on as normal, Henry and Charlotte went to work at Junk-n-Stuff, and Henry went on missions with Ray.
--Time Skip--
Ray: Come on kid, we have an emergency.
Henry: Whats wrong?
Ray: Dr. Minyak is robbing a bank right now.
Henry: Oh great. Of course he is. he rolled his eyes.
The two heroes popped a gum ball and turned into the superhero alter egos. They both ran to the tubes.
Charlotte: Good luck guys. Be safe!
Henry & Ray: We will. Up the Tube
And the two are gone.
The Bank:
Ray and Henry ran into the bank, to find Minyak pointing some sort of gun that neither of them have ever seen, at the citizens in the bank.
Ray: Excuse us Minyak.
Henry: Your going to jail.
Minyak: Ohh no I'm not.
He raised the gun up towards Henry.
Ray: What is that? Stepping in front of Henry.
Minyak: Just a new invention i created. Why don't you move out of the way and i can show your sidekick what it does.
Ray: Not a chance. stepping more in front of Henry.
Minyak: Ok then.. he smirked
Two of Minyaks henchmen came out from behind him.
Minyak: Get them!
The two men charged at Henry and Ray and they obviously fought back. The one guy fighting Henry punched him harder than he expected, causing him to lose his balance. That guy then ran to fight Ray. Henry got up to go help Ray when he heard a gun being charged up and pointed at him. He turned to see Minyak wielding what ever gun he made at him.
Minyak: Don't move.
The two henchmen now had Ray and in their hold, he could not move to protect Henry this time.
Henry: What does that do?
Minyak: Why don't i show you.
He shot the gun at Henry and it sent him flying backwards. All Henry heard was Ray yelling "Kid" as he was punching the other henchmen. Soon all Henry saw was black. Ray had knocked out the henchmen and Minyak, the police took them away. Ray ran to Henry.
Ray: Kid!
Henry's eyes slowly opened, and he groaned in pain.
Henry: Ow. That hurt a lot.
Ray: You ok?
Henry: Ya, just gonna be sore.
Ray helped Henry up, but as Ray let go Henry started to fall. Ray caught him.
Ray: Hey, you ok?
Henry: Yea i think, I'm just a bit dizzy.
Ray helped Henry back to the Man Cave. The two went down the tubes. Henry was holding his side because it was really really sore. As Henry walked down to sit on the couch he groaned some more.
Charlotte: Whats wrong with Henry? She ran over to him.
Ray: Minyak had this gun thingy that he made, and shot Henry.
Charlotte: Oh god.
Ray: Hes ok, just sore and dizzy he said.
Henry: Yea i should be fine after i rest some.
Charlotte: Ok. Ray, would it be ok if we leave early so Henry can get some sleep?
Ray: Yea thats fine, it is 8pm so you'd be leaving soon anyway.
Charlotte: Thanks Ray.
Charlotte held onto Henry making sure he wouldn't fall again, and they made their way home. Charlotte helped Henry up to their room.
Charlotte: You need to sleep.
Henry: What about you? You should sleep as well
Charlotte: I know, but I'm gonna clean up some things downstairs.
Henry: Ok, don't stay up to late ok?
Charlotte: I won't ill just be a half hour to an hour. Now go to sleep mister.
Charlotte walked out of their room and went back downstairs, she had started going through some of her old childhood boxes because her parents were moving to a smaller home and she wanted to see what all they kept for her. Charlotte was just going through the boxes, remember some fun times she had with her family, with Henry and Jasper. Until she came across this journal. It was labeled "Nightmare Journal"
Charlotte: Why would they keep this?
Charlotte's parents made her keep a journal of all the really bad nightmares she had, that way she could see if there was any pattern or incase they had to see someone about this nightmares. Charlotte hasn't had one of these nightmares in years. They consisted of someone she cared about getting either hurt really badly or even sometimes they would die. These nightmares always scared Charlotte because she thought they would come true the next day.
Charlotte: Ok, i think thats enough for tonight. I need to sleep.
Charlotte got up from the table and walked upstairs to their room only to find Henry still awake.
Charlotte: Why aren't you asleep?
Henry: I couldn't fall asleep. But anyways, were you talking to yourself downstairs?
Charlotte: Maybe a little bit, but it wasn't about you.
Henry: Ok, but lay down we both need to sleep.
Charlotte laid beside her husband and they both started to drift into sleep.
--Charlotte's Dream--
In the Man Cave:
Charlotte: Guys whats happening???
Ray: The Man Copter's engine is failing, were going down!
Charlotte: What!?!
Henry: Charlotte, I love you.
Charlotte: No, Henry don't talk like that, your going to be fine.
Ray: Kid, I've got you alright.
The coms broke up and neither end could reach the other.
Charlotte: Henry?!? Ray!?!? oh god please let them be ok.
The Man Copter was for sure going down. But not in one piece. Ray and Henry both heard a loud CRACK and then they were out of each others grasps. Henry went one way while Ray went the other. Ray tried so hard not to let Henry go but the force was to strong.
Charlotte was trying her best to get the coms back online, and eventually she was able to.
Charlotte: Ray, Henry?!? You guys can you hear me??
Ray: I hear you.
Charlotte: Are you guys ok?
Ray: Im ok, but i don't know where Henry is.
Charlotte: What? I thought you two were together.
Ray: The force separated us.
Ray started walking around the crash site, yelling "KID" but Henry didn't respond. He was laying on the ground motionless. Ray finally spotted his sidekicks body and ran to him as quick as he could.
Ray: Come on kid, talk to me.
Ray was giving Henry CPR, and was trying to get him a pulse again.
Charlotte: Ray?? Is Henry ok?
Ray: Im giving him CPR, he has no pulse.
Charlotte was now crying she couldn't believe that her husband could actually be dead. Ray was continuing to give Henry CPR, but nothing worked.
Ray: No... no please. Come on Kid. Come on. He yelled.
Nothing worked. Henry was gone and they couldn't do anything to bring him back.
--End of Nightmare--
Charlotte woke up quickly, breathing heavily and was sweating. She turned to look at her husband peacefully sleeping, still breathing. She cuddled up next to him, and put her head on his chest. His chest moving up and down steadily made her feel better. At this point Henry started to stir a little.
Henry: Char? he was half asleep. You ok?
Charlotte: Um yea.. yea I'm fine just a bad nightmare is all.
Henry: Want to talk about it?
Charlotte: What time is it?
Henry looked at the clock by their bed.
Henry: 5:30am. Why?
Charlotte: Well if it was earlier than i wouldn't want to get up to talk about it.
Henry: So you do want to talk about it?
Charlotte: Yea. I do.
Henry: Ok. Then lets talk.
