*This takes place at the end of Bionic Action Hero when Bree tells Adam to use his blast wave*
Adam's PoV:
When Bree told me to use my blast wave, I both loved and hated her for it. I loved her for it because it was heroic, brave, completely and utterly selfless: it was Bree. It was so much like her to do that that I honestly should have seen it coming; but I didn't see it coming, and that was were the love turned to hate. Not genuine hate of course, I could never hate my baby sister. It wasn't even that I hated Bree for saying it, or that I hated her at all; it was that I hated the idea that she planted in my head, and I hated the fact that she even thought of it in the first place. I knew she was right, I knew that it was the right thing to do...so why couldn't I do it? A hero is supposed to be willing to sacrifice anything, even himself or the people he loves, to protect mankind, but I couldn't. I didn't want to, I wouldn't. There had to be another way, one that involved not sacrificing my little sister.
I looked to Chase; he was the smartest man in the world, surely he had an idea that could kill Troy but save Bree. I could tell by the look in my little brother's eyes
that his mind was going not a mile a minute but five, working faster than any of us could understand to work out a way to protect our third sibling. But I could also tell by the look in Chase's eyes that he couldn't find a different solution no matter how hard he tried, no matter how hard he worked. I knew that that wasn't his fault, he was trying, but I still felt anger for Chase. He had to find a different way, he had to; but instead, Leo began charging up his EMP generation, Chase his laser bo, and I...I had to do it, didn't I? I felt my anger begin to swell inside of me as I realized what I had to do, and I guess that anger was what charged my blast wave because in what felt like less than a full minute, we all fired off our own abilities.
Troy was down...and so was Bree.
Chase was the first to snap out of it, running to our sister and taking her into his arms to check for a pulse while Douglas made sure that Troy was gone for good before kneeling down next to Bree. I was vaguely aware of Leo joining them, but as much as I wanted to do the same I couldn't; I suddenly felt like I couldn't move at all, like I was frozen in time and couldn't do anything about it.
"Adam? Adam, are you okay?" Chase's words broke me out of my reverie, and suddenly I could move again. I quickly made my way over to my family.
"Is she okay?" I asked Chase quietly.
"She has a pulse, so that's good. We need to get her to the infirmary though, if we don't monitor her who knows what could happen."
*Two Hours Later*
Adam's PoV:
What was taking Mr. Davenport and Douglas so long? It had been two hours, and while I wanted them to be thorough I wanted to see my sister even more. Almost as if they could hear my thoughts, Davenport and Douglas emerged from the infirmary then, meeting the worried faces of three teenage boys.
"Good news guys, she'll be fine," Mr. Davenport said, "I don't know how she got so lucky, that blast should have killed her."
"Well I'm glad it didn't," Chase replied, earning a wry smile from Mr. Davenport.
"Me too buddy. Me too."
"So we can see her?" Leo asked.
"Of course. She's awake and waiting for you guys," Douglas responded.
We all nodded at them in thanks as we headed into the infirmary only to be met with a great sight: Bree was sitting up in bed, looking at her phone, and as soon as we walked in she looked up with a smile. Seeing her radiant smile caused all of us to smile too as we walked over to her and sat down, Chase and Leo hugging her warmly.
She looked at me curiously. "What, no hug? I did just help save the world you know."
I laughed a little. "Yeah, I know."
"So come here then," she said, leaning forward with open arms only to look even more confused when I scooted my chair back a little.
Bree's eyes met Chase's and Leo's, having a short silent conversation with them before they walked back into the waiting area, leaving the two of us alone. "Okay Adam," Bree said patiently, "What's wrong?"
I hesitated, closing my eyes for a moment before answering. "I hurt you Bree. I really really hurt you, I almost killed you...I promised myself that I would always protect you and instead this happened. I can't touch you, I can't hurt you again."
Bree was quiet for a moment, and then I felt a small, warm hand wrap itself around mine. I started to back away again but this time Bree had none of it, holding my hand tighter so as not to let me get away. "Adam, look at me. Look. At. Me." I met her eyes. "You did what I told you to, what you had to do. Chase and Leo did the exact same thing as you, and I can promise you that I still love and trust the three of you just as much as I did yesterday. I'm fine Adam, but I still need my big brother."
From there we slowly worked into a hug, and once I hugged her I knew that I never wanted to let go. I would never fail to protect her ever again. As long as I was around, my Breezy would always be safe.
AN: So there it is! I know it's short, but I hope you guys liked it! So for the next chapter I'm thinking some father/daughter fluff between Donald and Bree? Let me know what you think and if that's something that you guys would enjoy reading or not. Thanks for reading, reviewing, favoriting, and following, if you do! :D Later! :P
