"RUN!," Peter shouted as buildings were falling behind him and Claire. It had been months, but Nathan has finally tracked them down in this abandoned city. Nothing was stopping Nathan from destroying everything in this place to get to them. And now that he's buddies with Sylar, things are different than they were used to care about Peter's well-being, but now all he wants is to capture Peter and Claire.
Peter and Claire have been on the run for years, but ever since Nathan and Sylar teamed up things have been harder. Peter has been trying to protect Claire, and luckily it has worked so far. Two months after they started running, Peter's powers (including the ones from before he lost his powers and then gained them back) came back full blast. He's picked up every ability he's encountered since they started running and even though it's not been much, every one of them has helped.
Peter is glad that he can protect Claire now, like he has always wanted to. She even agrees to it.
"Come on Claire! This way!" Peter grabbed her hand and ran, picking her up as they reached the end of the road, flying into the sky above the buildings. Nathan and Sylar flew up to meet them (no one really knows who he got the flight from). But Peter had other plans as to where they were going.
"Bye, fuckers!" Peter yelled as he concentrated on being on a desert island, somewhere far away from where they are now.
He didn't actually care where they ended up, he just wanted to get Claire somewhere safe. He knew she could heal (so could he), but Sylar knew as well. And Sylar knowing that is very dangerous. He didn't want to risk the possibility of Sylar getting to her neck, the only place that is injured severely, could kill her.
Although Peter had all the abilities Sylar had, he still could not defeat Sylar. As Peter's been gaining abilities, so has Sylar. And Peter could not control some of his abilities, yet.
Thinking about controlling his abilities made him remember exploding above New York all that time ago. The memory still pained him, but having Claire with him made everything easier.
"Thanks, Peter." Claire thanked him, clearing his thoughts. She hopped down from his arms and grinned at him.
"You're welcome, babe." He replied in the teasing, playful manner that he used with only Claire.
When they first started running, they were just friends, the typical uncle-niece relationship. But spending four years together, just the two of them, they became so much closer. They fell in love. At first, they thought it was wrong, and they kept their distance as much as they could even though they were still always together.
But they only had each other. They spent every day and every night together. They never really considered themselves to be family, because they hadn't know each other for so long. From the moment they met, they had been more than family, never less.
Being together for so long has brought them so close they hardly remember what it's like to not be intimate, to be just family. If Nathan knew, he would be furious. Even though he wants them to be imprisoned, Claire is still his daughter and he is very protective of her, especially when she is with Peter.
They both never really cared what Nathan thought, though. Not really, anyway. At least not what he thought about them being together. They are in love, and because of that they will keep running.
Even if they have to run forever.
