Happy Easter Everybody! I spent ALL DAY working on this yesterday, so I hope you all enjoy it and have an awesome Easter!
Disclaimer: I don't own Henry Danger.
Henry's POV
Ray and I were in the Man Van heading towards Swellview Park to capture the criminals Charlotte told us about. I had helped Ray with criminals before, there's been that guy who tried to rob the 24 hour glass store, the Santa who ran around the mall without his pants when it wasn't even Christmas, and even Dr. Maniac (I'm still being disrespectful), so I'm not that worried about getting hurt or anything tonight. Most of them aren't that hard to handle. I almost never even need Ray's help with them if they advance me. Since becoming Kid Danger, I've become very good at self defense and being on the offensive side as well. Though I did do just fine before he hired me, having the job has just made me better, I personally think, and think Ray agrees, even though he doesn't often say it.
We pull into a parking space and jump out, ready to fight evil. I see something flash in the corner of my sight and turn and see them running for the trees.
"Hey, over there", I say and point to guys. He follows my finger's direction and spots them too.
"Let's do this", He says and runs slightly ahead of me. We run after the guys for like eternity and my legs feel like their on fire before they run in different directions.
"They're splitting up!" I yell, even though I know he can see that considering he's ahead of me.
"You take that one, I'll take this one!" He yells and runs toward the one that ran right. I go the opposite direction after the other one.
I chase him for another decade before he starts climbing a tree. Okay, I've seen criminals try to escape our grasps before, but this is the lamest and saddest escape I've ever seen out of anyone. For I moment, I just stand there contemplating if I should catch him or buy him a lollipop out of sympathy. I then shake my head and decide to just capture the guy, but give him some not helpful advice along with it.
"Hey buddy, you're going to need a better escape plan than that!" I yell, jump up to the shortest branch, and do a pull up to get onto it. I've never been good at climbing trees, so I just use the branches like a twisted ladder to climb after the criminal.
The tree gets brighter from flashlights and I can tell the police are at the bottom waiting for me to get him back down. I appreciate that they trust me enough to handle this on my own, but come on, we're in a tree. It's not as easy as it looks.
Finally, the guy looses his footing and fell at the police's feet. Literally. They pick him up and handcuff him behind his back.
"Thank you, Kid Danger", One of them calls up to me.
"Anytime", I respond, happy I did my job without a fight. For once. I watch them walk away with the criminal in the middle of the circle they formed around him to keep him from escaping their grasp again.
I look down and stupidly realize I'm still in the tree. I then start my way down the same way I got up, except this time, I'm climbing backwards. I'm at the fifth branch I climbed on coming up and look down, seeing I'm still kind of high up, considering this is a rather tall tree. I put my right foot down on the branch below me and just as I'm about to put my other foot down, my other foot slips from under me and I fall the rest the down, screaming, of course.
When I land, I'm on my stomach with my left arm breaking my fall right on top of the tree's root. I have to clench my teeth to keep from screaming in pain. It hurts to the point where there aren't any words to describe it. I roll myself onto my back to ease the pain, even if it's only a little. I feel a little pain in my right knee too, but it's not as bad as my arm. I look directly above me to see the tree branches and leaves sudden start to get blurry. I blink to try to clear the dark spots in my vision, but before I know anything else, the world is black.
Ray's POV
I sit on the park bench waiting for Henry. We agreed on the way here that if the criminals broke up and we had to separate, we would meet at the park bench by the pond. It was a spot in the park not many people came to at this time of day, which is exactly what we want. To avoid fans as much as we can. It's not that we don't want to hang out with them, it's just that if we take time to do that on every mission we go on, we'd pretty much never get back to the Man Cave.
I lift up my sleeve to check the watch I kept hidden there and see I've been waiting here for ten minutes and Henry's still not here. That doesn't make sense because I saw the police leave with both guys five minutes ago. Is he hurt? Does he need me? Is he just getting slowed down by some fangirls? Should I go looking for him? I push those thoughts aside because I'm sure if that were the case, he would call me. Yet again, though, he should be here. I decide that if he doesn't show up in another five minutes, I'll go look for him.
I spend the next five minutes watching people come in and out of the park, but Henry never shows up. I sigh and stand up. Time for a little search.
I walk towards the way Henry and the criminal ran when we separated. I walk in the direction for a few minutes before I see something red at the root of a tree. Walking a few more steps, my eyes widen with shock and worry.
"Kid Danger!" I yell and run to him.
That's chapter 2 for you! Again, have a Happy Easter and until next weekend, laters!
