A/N: Morning, everyone! I hope everyone's doing well.
Oodles of thanks to my wonderful reviewers, Pink-Libra-Girl, Asori, and T.F. Crosby! You guys made me incredibly happy, and kindled some ideas I hadn't considered. So, maybe this arc will be a little longer than I thought it would be. 😌
Episode: Spike V. Spikette
Rating (This arc): Low T, because Chase will be sad.
Warnings: The same
Inspiration: What if Kate's sonic scream had messed up Chase's hearing in the last scene? After all, Chase doesn't get up from that hit... *here the story is born*
Be the reason someone smiles today! :)
Donald advanced on his brother. "What. Did. You. Do?!"
Douglas didn't look up. "Can we do this later?" He asked, tiredly. "I screwed up, but right now, I'm trying to fix it."
Donald was taken aback at how calm his usually explosive brother was. He was about to reply when a timid hand tapped on his shoulder, and he turned.
"I'm sorry," Kate nearly whispered, hugging herself. "I should've just let it go when Chase apologized."
Douglas shook his head. "No, Kate, it was my idea. It's my fault Chase might never hear again."
Donald's heart plummeted to the floor.
