Wildwing is finally going to take charge yay! Enjoy
As soon as they all walked through the door, Wildwing grabbed a puck launcher and shot it at Nosedive, which caused a robe to wrap around him and he fell onto the floor, face first.
"What the hell is your problem man."
Wildwing then lifted him up off the floor and threw him onto the couch.
" Hello, your hurting me here!"
" Hurt…I am hurting you? You don't even know the meaning of the word hurt, because if you did then what happened earlier today, would never have happened."
Nosedive just smirked, while trying to get up off the couch
" What are you talking about? Nothing happened."
" Hello…you blamed us for your little problem Nosedive, that's what happened. What even possessed you to do that? What the hell were you even thinking?"
Taking a deep breath in hopes that it would help, Wildwing continued.
" Since it's all my fault, then please tell me what I did wrong. I mean did I make a promise to you and I broke it? Did I yell at you about something and forgot to beg for forgiveness? Did I do something that I wasn't supposed to do? Tell me what I did please!"
Nosedive just sat there with blank look in his eyes, so Wildwing tried again to get through to him.
" Can you at least tell me what led you to this mess. Was it school? Was it the fact that you are here and not home?"
Still not getting the answer's he was looking for, Wildwing got up and walked out of the room to try and think.
" What the hell is going on with you? Can't you even see what this is doing to your brother. I mean you do remember him don't you, the person you worship, the person you always wanted to be like, when you grew up? Well that very person, has been crying himself to sleep every night, because of you! I don't care that you threw the rest of us to the dogs, but the fact that you threw your brother in, well that hurts!"
Nosedive just looked at Canard then looked towards the direction his brother walked towards.
Once Wildwing composed himself, he noticed Dive was just staring at him, so he walked over to him and untied him.
" Are you ready to admit you have a problem now?"
" But I don't have a problem."
" Nosedive that's it, I cant take this anymore, you claim you don't have a problem, then fine you don't have a problem, but you know what as long as you are like this, I no longer have a brother, I am now considering myself an only child. I am not going to sit here and watch you die!"
Wildwing then did something that he vowed he would never do, he slapped Nosedive across the face.
With tears in his eyes and holding his cheek, Nosedive looked at his brother.
then ran right out the door leaving everyone too stunned to say anything.
After Nosedive left, Wildwing muttered something about needing air, so leaving the team, inside, leaving them all too stunned to speak.
Once he got to the park, Wildwing found the nearest bench and sat down while going over everything in his head.
" Talk about one hell of a day huh?"
Wildwing was so caught up in his thoughts, he didn't even hear the captain walk towards him, until he looked up.
" Oh yeah, its been a blast. What are you doing here?"
" It was such a nice day I decided to go for a walk and besides the pond was way to quiet for my standards. What about you?"
" I told my baby brother I no longer wanted to be his brother, then I hit him in the face."
" I know, I was there remember."
Putting his face in his hands, Wildwing let out a frustrated sigh.
" He was just being so difficult. I mean why is it so hard to just admit he has a problem?"
Klegghorn just shrugged.
"I don't know, maybe because deep down he knows, he screwed up and he is afraid of what you might do?"
Wildwing gave the captain a puzzled look, so he continued.
" Nosedive looks up to you, and he wants you to be proud of him, so he is going to try anything for you to be proud, and now with Canard here, he wants to show him, that he earned his spot on the team.
Wildwing just nodded and stared out into space
" You know its funny, when you have siblings, especially when they are younger than you, you have an automatic best friend, will you two fight, sure, but it's the making up part that's the best, because no matter what he does, you will always see him as your little brother, and you will do whatever it takes to make sure he is going to be ok."
Wildwing turned and looked at the captain.
" I was 6 years old, when Nosedive was born and I remember telling my parents that I was going to be the best big brother ever and that I was going to watch out for him and take care of him. Now I'm trying to be a big brother and a parent, and I don't know how to play the 2 roles at once. I mean there are times I want to let him do whatever he wants to do, but then there are times when the parent role kicks in and we end up fighting."
Klegghorn looked at his friend with sympathy.
"Wildwing believe me, I understand completely and it is hard, but what you need to learn to do is have a balance between the two roles, and that way you and Nosedive will both be a lot happier in the end. The old Nosedive is in there somewhere, and he wants to come out, but cant because he is scared of what he might see."
Then Klegghorn got up from the bench and walked away.
After watching him walk away, Wildwing got up from the bench and left the park to go home, because he knew what he had to do, even if it meant his brother was never going to speak to him again, he was willing to take that chance. Wildwing loved his baby brother with his whole heart and he vowed, he would get him back.
