Hey y'all, sorry it took so long to get this chapter up, I've been so busy. I'd like to thank all of my wonderful reviewers, you guys are super. This chapter is kind of a turning point and I really have no clue where to go from here so I'm open to ideas.
I don't own it
Violet screamed as the shrapnel pierced her shoulder. It felt as if a thousand knives were stabbing her in the back. The concussive force of the explosion was enough to temporarily disable the inhibitor net off of her and she easily broke out of the cuffs. If it weren't for the fact that she was profusely bleeding from her upper back she would've already vanished. But the utter stress and shock of the situation put a massive strain on her powers and she was barely able to produce a force field. As she dragged herself to her feet she examined her surroundings. The warehouse she once resided in laid in ruins. If it were years ago she would be upset at such a thing, but now she felt no sentiment towards the places she called 'home'.
Nowadays she felt little to no emotion, she covered it up with her resentment and anger. Her mission was the sole purpose in her life. There was no room for love and compassion. She was a cold shell of her former self. Her short-lived captor was sprawled out on the concrete; he was still alive, but barely. When she first came into contact with him she was utterly shocked. Tears almost burned her eyes as she looked at his unconscious form, but tears were a part of the old Violet and the old Violet has long been dead. The old Violet died the night her family's lives were robbed in an 'accident'.
She knew that the supposed car wreck was anything but an accident. It was a huge cover up. Her parents didn't die in the fire, no; they died of the bullet put in the back of their skulls. Dash was lucky to get out when he did and Jack-Jack was a lost cause. She faced the grim reality that he burned up in the fire; it was no use pretending that he made it on his own. She was alone in the world, but that didn't discourage her. She drove herself by vengeance; she would stop at nothing to get revenge on her fallen family. Sure Dash was possibly out there somewhere, but there was a big chance he didn't make it either.
Looking at Tony she almost felt something, years ago she would've helped him, but she's not the person she was back then when they were friends. He was now the enemy, trying to exterminate her kind.
She fled the scene without another glance, she knew that she couldn't get far with her injuries, but she could get a head start. As she escaped, questions blazed through her mind. She momentarily wondered if Tony knew her real identity, but then assumed probably not due to the way he acted toward her. But then again, she didn't know him as well as she thought she did, or it least he'd changed a lot since she knew him. If he was expecting her to be the old Violet or Invisigirl, then he had another thing coming.
She soon found herself a place to hide for the time being. Violet quickly got to work with patching herself up, the blood loss was getting to her, but she couldn't slow down. The former hero was now on the run, she'd evaded the SHCU for over a decade and they weren't about to catch her now.
Well that's all for now folks! I have to go to sleep now, so leave a review so I'll wake up to a pleasant surprise in the morning. Also I know this chapter is more of a filler I didn't have time to get to the action, so I'll get to that in the next chapter, if you have any ideas, please let me know…I'm at a loss for inspiration. Don't forget to review or I might forget to update!
