One Month Later
When Ebony finally got home she was relieved to see that nobody was there. The day had
been crazy nobody could stop talking about save the citizen her whole body hurt fighting fire
man had taken a lot out of her. Apparently she and Riley where the first people to beat
Stronghold and Peace since last year and then they had done it again in the rematch. This
made her a little proud but she didn't want to play save the citizen anytime soon. Deciding
that taking a bath would be the best set course Ebony went into her bathroom and filled the
tub with steaming hot water. When she got in their she gently leaned up and let her wings
spread over the tub. Laying in the water helped her to relax he muscles and it seemed the hot
water also made it easier to heal her.
Ever since the first day she had met the Pyro she could feel his eyes follow her, his friends
even tried to talk to her when they where in the same class. She new that she had intrigued
him but wasn't able to figure out why besides the fact he was trying to figure out how she had
beaten him. Every time they where near each other both of their temperatures would go up,
she could feel the heat radiating off of him and the constant cold she usually felt slowly
started to go away. But she knew that he couldn't be let in because if you let people get close
they would only hurt you later. Since she had dunked her head under the water she hadn't
heard the noise of the door opening and closing. When she was pruny Ebony knew it was a
good time to get out besides the water was starting to get cold. Wrapping a towel around
herself Ebony headed out of the bathroom, but when she turned the corner she was in for a
big surprise. Their stood her father and his icy eyes stared at her with hatred.
" Hi daddy" She said quietly
She saw the hand coming at her but didn't move as he slapped her face, then with all his
might had her pinned to the wall. She almost cringed when she felt her wings bend a little,
Ebony couldn't believe how stupid she had been to forget to retract them.
" Don't call me daddy you freak, your going to pack I want you out of this house till next week
do you hear me I can't have my co-workers knowing about my freak daughter" He said his
breath already heavy with Alcohol
Simply nodding her head the man let her go and headed toward the kitchen. Ebony not
wanting to disobey him quickly headed toward her bedroom. Grabbing two duffel bags she
began to stuff them with cloths and things she needed, she put her school bag in the pile. One
last thing she needed was her teddy bear which was sitting on her bed, this was all she needed
but the hard part was figuring out where she would go. This time she did hear the door she
quickly turned around to see her father standing there with a hand behind his back. Knowing
her wings made her freaky to him she quickly tried to retract them but was stopped. She
looked to see her father holding her left wing in his hand and a larger butcher knife in the
other.
" I'll defreak you myself" He said and then brought the knife down cutting of the edge of her
wing
" DADDY NO PLEASE DON'T DO THAT" Ebony screamed
She tried to fight him but it was just to much it wasn't long before he had her pinned to the
bed and was chopping off the rest of her wings. It was excoriating pain and soon she didn't
even have the strength to fight. Ebony watched in horror as the white feathers fell in front of
her face covered in blood. He didn't stop cutting her wings until they where merely little stubs.
" Now your normal like everybody else Princess" He said with a malicious smile and walked
out of the room.
Ebony retracted the little stubs on her back and got up, she could still feel the blood pouring
from the two gaping wounds in her back. She hurt so bad and everything was starting to spin
but she knew she had to get out of this house. Quickly throwing on a hoodie and sweats she
grabbed her bags and stuffing aqua in one ran out of the house. Ebony usually strong couldn't
help but break down her father had just literally clipped her wings the monster had damaged
her in ways she couldn't heal. As Ebony walked along the world began to spin but she knew
she had to move on she couldn't be her she had to find somewhere to go. Worst of all it had
began to rain and she was getting soaked to the bone. Some were safe where she could heal
herself or so she was hoping. She walked only 5 more steps and then collapsed and the world
went black.
Warren had been at Wills house to start a project that had been a assigned to them. It was
about what made somebody a super hero and what made them a super villain. Was how they
lived one of the ways that effected it. It was almost four and Warren had to get home so he
could head to work at 5 not really in the mood to drive he had walked to Wills although he
had regretted that decision now since it had started to pour outside. Walking quickly Warren
took a short cut through the park knowing it could cut off at least two minuets. As he crossed
the street that was a block from his house he saw a figurer heading the same way he was
although she was a good 50 feet away. She had black hair a looked to be about 5'3 ,rite away
he noticed the blood on her back. Soon he saw that she was going to fall so with all his mite he
sprinted to where she was and caught her. Turning her over he was surprised to see the angel
he had fought before feeling the warm substance on his hands he knew that she was still
bleeding and needed help. Gently picking her up her grabbed her stuff and ran toward his
house, when he got their he was thankful that his mother wasn't home. Gently laying her on
the couch with a towel under her back hoping to dry her off a little and stop the blood, he
headed into the bathroom and on the way grabbed the phone. Quickly he called work telling
them that he couldn't make it because an emergency had just came up. Turning it off he
grabbed the large thing of wrap his mother kept in the house and some antibacterial stuff.
Returning to the couch he gently lifted her up and then placed her on his lap so that he would
be able to hold her while wrapping the bandages. First thing first we have to take of the shirt
he thought and then gently brought the hoodie over his head. Realizing that there was
nothing under it but skin Warren couldn't help but blush which thankfully no one would no
about. Pulling himself out of that though he couldn't help but gasp at the wounds on the girls
back, their where two gaping wholes where her wings should have been, there where also so
many bruises over her body.. He couldn't help but get angry that somebody had done this to
the girl if he ever found out who it was he would probably kill them.
