Chapter 21
Hey guys, so I just wanted to thank everyone SO much for reading! Without you guys, I wouldn't have written and developed nearly as much as I have over the past few years ^-^ And I also wanted to apologise to being so behind on updating (I've been busy since I've been doing stuff with family for my birthday and I've had so much other stuff to write and everything) so thank you all for your patience, and enjoy!~ Bella
You were surprised as your mother -- who'd been clutching you tightly and pressing a gun so hard into your temple that it was probably going to be bruised... released you. She let you go, dropped the gun, and backed away silently. You snatched her pistol up before scurrying over to Hiro, who welcomed you into his arms, the both of you momentarily forgetting about her.
"A-are you okay (Y/N)? Did she hurt you?" Hiro held your face in his hands as you cried, and managed to shake your head.
"B-but, s-she... she..."
"Hey," he cooed, stroking your hair soothingly. "It's okay, tell me later. It's okay. Everything's fine (Y/N), I"m here."
A loud wail sounded, and you snapped your head around to your mother, who was kneeling on the ground, her head in her hands.
"W-where am I?" She cried. "W-what..."
With shaking hands, you raised the gun and aimed it at her quivering figure.
"You KILLED MY SISTER!" You screamed (screaming was the only way you could speak without stuttering every few words) and your mother visibly flinched, but didn't answer. Hiro stayed silent as well, but you could picture his reaction, and a whole new wave of pain washed over you.
"You killed my father!" Your voice was becoming steadier now, and you took another step towards her. "I should kill you right now!"
Why did she let you go so easily? It didn't make any sense to you... she'd gone to all the trouble to track you down, kidnap you, and try to kill you; so why?
She was still mumbling incoherent things into her legs as she curled up tighter and tighter, squeezing her knees close to her chest.
"(Y/N)," Hiro muttered, setting a hand on your shoulder. "What happened? Who is she? What--"
"NOOO!" Hiro was cut off as your mother let out a bloodcurdling scream. "I CAN'T! I DON'T WANT TO! TAKE ME BACK! PLEASE! Please..." Then she was back to sobbing on the ground.
Your finger slipped over the trigger, and the gun fired. You stumbled back and fell on your butt, the bullet whizzing past your mother, missing her by a few inches. Both you and Hiro had let out startled yelps, but your kidnapper remained still and silent -- so still now, if you'd just glanced at her, you probably would've had guessed she was dead.
"Why are you doing this?" You screamed at her suddenly. There were a few more seconds of silence, and then she twitched, bringing her head up to look at you, a crazed glint in her eyes.
"You," she hissed, pushing herself to her feet. "You little--" You fired another shot by her feet, and she jolted back.
"Stay back," you panted, stepping back even closer to Hiro, who had moved next to you, and pushed you behind him.
"Careful," he muttered near your ear. "I don't think she's..." he trailed off, but you nodded slightly to show you understood.
"Yeah, I know." You looked back to her, swallowing the lump in your throat, then back to Hiro. "Did you... bring my suit?" He shook his head solemnly.
"No... just mine, and everyone else is off looking in the city..."
"Right..."
"What should we do with her...?"
Sadly, this story will be ending soon (I'm planning a few more chapters... well, more than a few... but it's close to being over...) so I've been contemplating ideas for my next story and would appreciate ideas. A Dan Smith (from Bastille) X reader is an option I've been thinking about (Because there aren't very many and I love him XD) but please let me know! I want to choose the idea with the most votes, so thanks for reading!
