Chapter 14: Dash's Last Run. (If Only Tears Could Bring You Back belongs to Midnight Sons and The Time Has Come belongs to all rightful owners.)

Bomb Voyage laughed as he stood in his helicopter throwing bombs every here and there. The Incredibles climbed out of a pile of rubble with torn suits and injuries.

"Man, is there any way to stop this maniac?" asked Violet.

"Your time iz up, Incredibles! Prepare to die!" Voyage said as he threw two bombs at the heroes. Dash then had an idea, he knew only one way to stop Voyage when he was as psycho as this, but he knew his family wouldn't like it.

He turned towards them and said, "Guys, I'm gonna stop those bombs on my own."

Elastigirl looked alarmed, "How are you going to do that?!" she asked.

"You wouldn't let me if I told you. I love you guys. Take care." Dash said, a tear running down his face before he ran at super speed in the direction of the bombs.

"SPEED DEMON!" his family shouted in worry as he neared the bombs. The young Super managed to kick one of the bombs right before he was hit by the other one, which exploded on impact. His family instantly ran over in worry and horror. Bomb Voyage could only watch in horror as the bomb hit his helicopter's blades, blowing up the vehicle and killing him. The Incredibles picked up Dash, whose suit had been burnt as well as him. Violet felt his pulse, but her heart stopped at feeling nothing at all. It was over. He was dead. Violet started crying before she wailed to the skies. Elastigirl collapsed to her hands and knees in a limp heap, tears falling onto the ground endlessly. Mr. Incredible fell to his knees in tears before he punched the ground. A couple of days later, the three heroes, Jack-Jack, Tony, Mirage, Edna, Kari, Rick, Eric, and many of Speed Demon's fans were gathered by a church in front of the young hero's coffin. Everyone was saddened and crying.

How will I start tomorrow without you here?
Who's heart will guide me while all the answers disappear?
Is it too late, are you too far gone to stay?
Best friends forever, should never have to go away!

What will I do? You know I'm only half without you
How will I make it through?

As it rained on the saddened crowd, people walked up to the coffin and started paying their respects with words.

After Eric and her parents did it, Violet walked up to the coffin and started crying as she whispered, "Dash, I'm so sorry. If only I could've helped you. I'll never forget everything you and me did together or that you did for me. Thank you for everything. I love you." However, what everyone, including her, failed to notice was that Violet's tears were sparkling as they fell onto the burnt boy's face.

If only tears could bring you back to me
If only love could find a way
What I would do, what I would give if you
Returned to me, someday, somehow, someway
If my tears could bring you back to me

Everyone then started to leave, tears shed with regret. Bob and Helen just sat depressed in the living room with everyone else trying to comfort them. Violet, however, was much worse. The minute they returned home, she just ran to her bedroom, locked the door and threw herself onto her bed and started crying hysterically.

I'd cry you an ocean if you'd sail on home again
Waves of emotion will carry you, I know they can
Just let love guide you and your heart will chart the course
Soon you'll be drifting into the arms of your true north!

Look in my eyes, you'll see a million tears have gone by
And still they're not dry!

Violet's tears endlessly soaked her pillow as her voice started growing hoarse from sobbing so hard.

If only tears could bring you back to me
If only love could find a way
What I would do, what I would give if you
Returned to me, someday, somehow, someway
If my tears could bring you back to me

I'd hold you close and shout the words I only whispered before
For one more chance, for one last glance
There's not a thing, that I would not endure

After a while, Tony came in and started rubbing his girlfriend's back, trying to comfort her. Violet looked at him before she wrapped her arms around his neck and sobbed onto his shoulder. After some time, everyone else went home and Bob and Helen went with Honey and Lucius to try and cope with their loss. Violet just sat in the living room chair, crying into her knees, as she began to remember the time she and her brother had together.

I close my eyes and I can see the day we met, (The hug after the battle with the Omnidroid.)
Just one moment and I knew:
You're my best friend, do anything for you. (Violet comforting Dash after a nightmare.)

We've gone so far and done so much (Dash and Violet playing at the beach.)
And I feel like we've always been together.
Right by my side through thick and thin,
You're the part of my life I'll always remember. (Dash and Violet hugging after he gave her a special card.)

The time has come, (The first time they fused into Shadow.)
It's for the best, I know it.
Who could have guessed that you and I -
Somehow, someday, we'd have to say goodbye. (Dash hugging Violet as a zombie.)

The time has come, (Dash making his sacrifice.)
It's for the best, I know it.
Who could have guessed that you and I -
Somehow, someday, we'd have to say goodbye. (Violet crying over the coffin.)

Violet sobbed for a little while longer before she put her hands together and started to pray, "Lord, please take good care of my brother in Heaven and help my family through this. Please, Lord, please." before she began to cry again.

"If only I could bring him back." That's when her tears started flowing in air as if they were a magic sparkle. A few minutes later, she noticed a bright blue glow outside that covered everything for miles. Then, a little while later, it faded and there were footsteps outside the door.

If only tears could bring you back to me

The door opened a bit and in stepped a boy with a half-torn mask and an Incredibles suit that had the shoulders ruined and was ashy in some places. His face, however, was all too recognizable with blond hair and blue eyes.

"Hey, sis!" he said with a wide smile. Violet's mouth started quivering and tears fell like waterfalls.

She stared at him for a few minutes before she burst into tears and ran towards him with her arms open, wailing, "DAAAAAAAAAAASH!"

IF ONLY LOVE COULD FIND A WAY!

What I would do, what I would give if you

Returned to me, someday, somehow, someway.

If my tears could bring you back to me.

Violet hugged her brother tightly and sobbed furiously on his shoulder as he hugged her back with a smile. Once Violet stopped crying, she smiled at Dash.

"Your tears brought me back. Thanks for returning that favor, sis." Dash said.

Violet smiled, "You're welcome, Dash. But, it wasn't just my doing." she said.

They both looked at the sky and, in prayer, said, "Thank you, Lord. Thank you."
