Cycle of doom- part 2
julia23602829 asked for a oneshot of a sequel to Ch3097 "Cycle of doom" where Emma falls from the bike on her next class and gets some cuts and bruises. David takes his anger out on August.
"WOOD BOY!" David bellowed at the top of his lungs as he slammed the door to the caravan open. "YOU HAVE NOWHERE TO HIDE HERE."
"Just as well I'm not hiding then." Came a calm and collected voice from behind him. David whipped around, his face in a furious snarl. He marched down the steps of the caravan and grabbed August by the scruff of the neck. Emma had returned from her most recent lesson and was clearly in pain, despite how hard she tried to hide it or however much she denied it. Eventually, Snow and David got it out of her that she'd had what she described as "a little setback". Well, one look at the mess this "little setback" had left of Emma's leg and David saw red. He marched straight down to August's home, determined to fulfil his promise of what would happen if Emma got hurt. It was remarkable how little fear August was showing despite David's clear rage.
"I'm going to make firewood out of you." David growled.
"Well that's going to be awful difficult seeing as I'm human now. I'm not a 'wood boy' as you so kindly put it. Is this about Emma's accident?" August asked.
"Of course it is." David snapped. He wasn't in the habit of threatening people at their homes for no good reason.
"I checked her over myself and tried to convince her to go to at least the pharmacist for a quick check. She refused, saying she was fine. In fairness, my checks would have agreed that her wounds are superficial…"
"Superficial?! I'll give you superficial!" David yelled. "How many times do you have to fail my daughter, Pinocchio? You were the only person from our world who could have protected her. Who could have told her how loved she was. You let her down. Then you allowed her to go to prison while she was pregnant with my grandchild. I bet you loved spending the money she was meant to have." David growled. August did at least look a bit guilty at this. "You just keep managing to let her get hurt. Do you feel like some kind of big man riding around with her? Make you think you have a chance with her? Because let me tell you now, punk, not a chance in Hell would I ever let you end up with Emma." David spat before dropping August and walking away before he did something he'd actually regret.
