Chapter 5
The look on Marcus's face reveals that he is just as shocked as I am. Marcus looks at me and then back at "Kick Ass" about three times before he finds his voice. "How…" he stutters at first and then finally he can speak. "You were there?"
"Kick Ass" nods and smirks at me. "Duh, I was watching from the rooftop. I was chasing Chris and got there just a bit too late. I saw him kill Mindy though. I was going to help kill Chris but I couldn't jump down from the roof, it was four stories up."
I cross my arms and stare at "Kick Ass", trying to figure out who it is. I have mixed emotions about the whole other Kick Ass thing. I mean, it makes me upset with him because he's trying to take over my second life, but it also makes me glad that he's here. I mean he just saved my ass. Anyways, I study him, taking every detail. He looks a couple inches shorter than me and looks lanky. A bit of curly dirty blonde hair peeks out from the mask and his brown eyes show laughter and happiness.
A scowl covers my face as I desperately try and figure out who he is. I try for about thirty more seconds before giving up with a loud sigh.
Marcus sighs and rubs his bald scalp with his hand. He closes his eyes and lets out another big sigh before opening his eyes and saying, "Fine. You can testify for him. But I want both of you to lay low until after court. I will send you both a letter saying when court is."
I nod and so does "Kick Ass" and then we are free to leave.
"Who the hell are you?" I demand to know the second we step outside of the police station.
"The man who is going to save you a lot of jail time; your welcome by the way," he says, his voice cocky all of a sudden.
"Thanks, but you honestly have no idea how much danger you are putting yourself in by wearing my suit. Some of Chris's minions are still alive and out to get me. I don't want to get anyone else killed," I respond. "As soon as we get through this court crap take off the suit and keep yourself out of danger."
"I can handle myself. I'll take off the suit under one condition."
A smile then covers my face as I finally identify who it is. Todd Haynes, one of my best friends, who wanted so desperately to join Marty and I as crime fighters, managed to pull off a damn good impression of me.
"Todd?" I ask, my voice laced with shock.
"Yeah, it's me. I thought I might be able to help once I heard that you were in trouble. I was following you and Mindy around because Marty and I made a bet that you and Mindy fuck at least three times when you guys are on patrol and he made me be the one to follow you guys. I saw everything. Anyways, my condition is that you help me become a super hero that isn't as lame as the Ass-Kicker. I want to be like you and Marty. I'm tired of you guys leaving me out of all your super hero shit."
"Deal," I respond. "I really appreciate this even if it was a little fucking creepy that you were going to watch Mindy and I fuck five times while we're on patrol. I mean come on; it's Mindy we're talking about."
We stand there laughing and waiting for Mindy to judo flip me or something that would hurt me. Then after she was satisfied with my punishment she would kiss me. But then the wave of realization hits me like a blow to the stomach; Mindy was dead, and she wasn't coming back no matter how much I wished she would.
I honestly missed her like crazy. I should have been the one to die, it shouldn't have been her. She was the most courageous and strongest person I will ever meet in my life time. She was the love of my life and no matter how hard I try; I will never be able to get over her.
(A/N: Okay, so yeah. Todd is the other Kick Ass... This is the shortest chapter I have published for this fic and it's only short because I'm about to go to this party thing. Anyways, lemme know what you thought in a review or PM me! :))
