I woke up around mid-night to Angela shaking me awake. I groaned sleepily, but opened my eyes nevertheless.

"What" I groaned.

"Mindy, you have to go home"

"No, I have to stay" I groaned again.

"Mindy, please, we'll stay here and watch Dave, but you have to go" Angela pleaded.

I finally open my eyes, and sit up, looking back at Angela. She could see the resistance in my eyes, but I surprsied her by saying I'd go home. She smiled and helped me stand up. I walked out of the room reluctantly and made my way back home. I began to walk home, since I came in an ambulance and I highly doubt they would take me back home. Oddly enough, no one is around, like at all. Then again, it is mid-night. I continued to walk until a failed attempt to snatch me ended up with a guy having broken nose. I finally made it back home around 12:30 and immediately went to Dave's room and changed into some short shorts and a belly shirt before collapsing on the queen sized bed, slowly slipping into unconciousness. I was awakened by the sound of someone knocking on the door.

"God dammit, can't I ever get some sleep" I muttered under my breath.

I walked to the door and asked, "Who is it!"

"Police! Mindy Mcready, come out with your hands up" The cop said from the other side of the door.

That instantly woke me up and I panicked. I ran back upstairs and looked out the window. Only one squad car and two cops at the door. 'This shouldn't be so hard' I thought. I put on some 'less revealing' clothes and jolted out the backyard. I jumped the fence and ran through houses and streets and alleys before finally making it to safehouse B. I might have to crash here tonight, maybe tomorrow too. Well, I'll see how Dave is doing in the morning.

I woke up at around 11:00am this morning and decided to see Dave as soon as I ate something, I hurriedly grabbed a power bar and a water bottle before starting the long walk back to the hospital. I will spare you the details of my very uneventful walk and just skip to when I got to the hospital. Dave was awake and looking a lot better by the looks of it. I pulled up a chair and sat next to his bed.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, I'll get out tomorrow"

"I know that dilweed, we still gotta kick Todd's ass" I said, rubbing my hands together.

"Umm...Mindy, I don't think I'll be able to fight anymore and my Kick-Ass days might be over" He said, his voice low.

"What?" I replied shocked.

"I'm sorry"

"Why" was the only word that could formulate out of my mouth.

"Getting shot hurt, alot. Especially if you're not wearing any armor. I don't know if I could go through the pain of you dying due to an ambush while walking around in our civilian clothes. Please Mindy, we have to stop going out there" Dave pleaded.

"Dave...That asshole was a major cause of my dad's death and I'm not letting him just get away with it" I said, sternly.

"Frank killed your dad, not Chris or Ralph. He's dead, just please, promise me"

"...fine" I said, after a long pause.

"Thank you Mindy"

"But if that asshole tries to come after you or me again, I'll put a couple bullets in that asshole's head"

SORRY FOR ANOTHER SHORT CAHPTER BUT LIKE I SAID, BUSY WITH COMPETITIONS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. REMEMBER 45 REEVIEWS.
