I got a new chapter up for you, hope you enjoy it, please leave a review, good or bad? Let me know.
Without wasting further time, Violet became invisible and charged up the stairs as fast as she could, ignoring all the pain that flowed through her body, screaming in protest against the abuse. She had to get to Jack-jack.
She burst into his room and was relieved to see that he was fine and well protected in her force field. She dropped her invisibility hoping that it would sooth the crying child, but before she could even reach her force filed she was grabbed from behind and held in a ruthlessly strong grip. She could feel her bones cracking under the pressure but refused to voice her pain, not wanting to upset her little brother further, but the shadows form changed as spikes grew along him, they were sharp, and Violet couldn't help but scream as she felt them piece her skin as they grew around his arms. She was still in his hold and was beginning to feel trapped as his spikes grew shaper as if he was a walking iron maiden. It was then the shadow's appearance changed again, not in shape but in colour and for a second Violet's world became numb with pain, her mouth open in a scream before her eyes rolled backwards and her body fell limp.
The creature threw Violet's body into the corner before turning to look at Jack-Jack who was crying violently now. He gave the baby one last look before letting out an inhumane shriek, one that made the house shake with the level of ferocity.
Violet however was clawing her way back to consciousness, Jack-jack needed her. She would prove that she was not weak. On sheer will power alone Violent forced her aching body to sit up, forcing her unyielding eyes to open in time to see cracks appear on the ceiling. Adrenaline filling her veins, she jumped up and entered the force field before scooping her brother out of his crib, holding him to her close, she turned to see the thing blocking their only exit. There was no other choice. She charged through the window. Shards of glass cutting her already wounded skin. She tried her best to shield Jack-jack with her own body but she could still hear him cry in pain.
She landed hard on the grass, looking up to her house as she tried to calm down the baby in her arms. She hadn't been Invisigirl then; she had been just plain old Violet Parr. So why had that thing decided to attack them? She sighed as the shaking finally stopped but didn't enter the house. The thing could still be there. She sat on the grass, her body refusing to suffer anymore abuse meaning that she couldn't get back up. She was tired and blood spattered. Her body howled in pain.
"VIOLET!!" a voice screamed behind her. It was her mother, Helen.
"Mom," she whispered back. Helen and Bob rushed over to their fallen daughter. Bob helped Violet up while Helen checked over Jack-jack. He had a few cuts from when the pair had escaped through the window.
"Vi what happened?" her dad asked her as he checked her over, picking her up when her legs gave way.
"There was this thing, it just attacked us," she said before Dash interrupted her as he sped out of the house.
"There's no one inside," he announced as he followed his father into the house. As they entered the house, Violet's eyes widened. The place was clean, there was no sign of a struggle having happened anywhere, the table was fixed and there was nothing out of place.
"Vi what happened?" Bob asked her again once he had settled her on the couch before Helen started cleaning her wounds.
"I told you, this thing attack us it was a shadow, it...It trashed the room and then Jack-jack...I went to check on him because he was crying but the thing followed me and blocked us in, he grabbed me but I kept jack-jack safe," she said, she could see the confusion in her parents eyes.
"There's no sign of a struggle in Jack-jack's room," Dash said whizzing down the stairs. At this Violet sat up.
"Wait a minute, you believe me don't you?" she asked in a panic, she could tell from their looks that they didn't.
"Honey we..." started Helen but was cut off by an angry Violet.
"What? You think I did this to myself?!" she asked yelling.
"Don't take that tone with us young lady, you did just jump through a window with your baby brother," Helen said raising her voice.
"I don't think glass could cause these do you?" she asked pointing to her arms, she was shocked however to see that the holes made in her by the spikes weren't there, she poked at her arm, she could still feel a small ache from them but there was nothing there to support her story.
"Violet as far as we can tell you just put your three year old brother at risk by jumping out of a window for no reason! Did you think it would prove anything?" Helen asked furious that her daughter would risk another family member's life.
"What?" Violet asked shocked that her mother would even think that.
"Honey," Bob said trying to calm his wife down before turning to his daughter, "Look Violet we just don't think you're ready to fight crime yet, you didn't have to stage this to prove anything..." he started but Helen cut her off.
"And obviously you can't seeing as you can't even look after your baby brother!" Helen shouted holding Jack-jack close to her trying to quell his crying.
"Oh Violet's in trouble," Dash sang from his seat. Bob turned to his son.
"Wait you think that I would do this just to prove I could be a hero?" she asked in a distraught tone.
"Well what else are we supposed to think?" Bob said turning on his daughter, his eyes widened, he didn't mean to say that out loud.
"But I didn't..."
SLAP!!
The room fell silent as the sound of the slap echoed through the room. Violet held her cheek, trying to sooth the stinging out of it as she looked to the one who slapped her. It was her mother.
"Violet I have had enough of this, I trusted you with your brother's safety, and look what happened, you want to be a hero so much that you became worse than a villain?" Helen asked her only daughter, not being able to look the girl in the eye. "You're grounded," she said before turning to walk away from her. Bob and Dash stood shocked at Helen's behaviour which was a little harsh.
"Helen," Bob started but was interrupted by Helen.
"Don't Bob, it's time she grew up, we don't always get what we want, and putting her brother's life at risk was over the line," she said not turning back at them. Bob sighed and turned to Violet.
"Vi honey, go to your room," he said before turning to catch up with his wife, leaving only Dash and Violet in the room. Dash turned to Violet.
"Vi I...." he started but in the end he just shook his head and ran over to his parents, he didn't know what to think.
