Everyone cheered as the reinforcement came and took down the duplo with a net now that it was small enough to capture. Piper sighed at this saying "It's over." Declan could feel her shake a bit after the experience and said "You were really brave."
She blushed saying "Thanks but not really. I was terrified, even though that is what courage is, doing the right thing even when you're afraid." Declan smiled saying "I always saw it that way as well." She smiled at him and suddenly they heard "Piper!" "Mom, dad!" She called as they came and hugged her, her mother cried as her father comforted her.
He looked to Declan and said "Why didn't you move?" Declan looked to Piper and said "Piper said not to and I trust her judgment on things like this. She seems to know what she's doing." Victoria said "Piper never do that again pleas." Piper then said "I didn't have a choice mom it was the only way to survive. Out running it wasn't a choice." Declan nodded saying "She's right the creature was too big."
Suddenly he felt something was off, he looked around, the usual gruff voice of someone giving orders wasn't there and his eyes widened as he aid "Aiden. He didn't come out of the theater." Piper gasped saying "You don't think he's hurt?" "I hope not. Will you be okay?" "I'm fine go find your bother." He nodded and rushed in to do so. As he did he prayed his brother was okay.
Declan rushed in like a mad man climbing over debris and looking around hysterically as he yelled "Aiden!" no answer came to him, then he saw it. A body under a modal plane. He felt his heart almost stop. He rushed forward, all the medical knowledge he knew coming to mind on what he should do. He rushed to his knees and looked over his brother saying "Aiden wake up, wake up."
His brother didn't respond and he almost freaked but he first checked his pulse end heart rate, they were still there. He sighed as he thanked God for his brother's life. He saw no blood but found his bother leg pinned under part of the plan. He sighed and made sure that moving it wouldn't cause any damage and began to pull the plain off. It was heavy and it was hard on is muscles but it wasn't impossibly.
He was able to move the plane enough so that his brother was no longer pinned down. Once done he got down and checked to see if his leg was fine. He heard a small grunt from his brother and found that the leg was damaged. He sighed but a determined look came on his face as he pulled his brother over him and started carrying him out.
He said "It's okay buddy, I'll get you some help. Just hold on." Tears came to his face at this. Worry beyond belief for his brother coursed through his mind. He rushed out of the theater to find an ambulance coming by, he rushed towards it yelling "Help, my bother injured help!" his please seemed to of bean heard as the ambulance stopped and the medics sprang to action.
Two men took his brother from him while another grabbed him by the arm saying "Come with us." Declan didn't protest he didn't know why he was being taken but he supposed he could see the anguish in his face and the fact that they were bothers. The man sat him down as his brother was strapped down and he said "Tell us what happened." Even though his mind was in a daze he recalled back on how he found him. Once that was done all he could do was stare as his brother was being fixed up by the medics.
They checked his leg and one said "It's not broken but he won't be able to walk for a while." Declan felt his face pale at that, his brother was not going to be happy to hear that. Who would take over at the police department? He sighed thinking 'Guess my vacations over. But I have to take on the responsibility.' It didn't take long for them to get to the hospital. Declan sat by as he waited for Aiden to wake up. He worried about his brother but the doctors said he wake up, he just had a slight concussion on his head that's why he was out.
He had already called everyone including Piper and told them what happened. The builders where worry and said they come to visit, but Declan told them not to "He's going to be in a sour mood when he wakes up. I have the coffee ready just in case but you never know with him in this stage." They decided to take his word on this. Piper had said "I'm glad to hear that. But why is it we always end up with a duplo attack when we meet?" "I'm not sure. How about we meat up sometime at the park in a couple of days?" "Sure what day?"
Suddenly Declan heard a moan and said "I'll call you during the week it sounds like he's waking up." "Okay be safe hope you two feel better." "Thank you goodbye." He hung up and watched as his brother stirred, they had taken his glasses off and on to the side desk so he could see his blue eyes flutter open. He tried sitting up but Declan rushed over saying "Take it easy buddy."
At this Aiden's eyes widened and he sat up quickly hugging his brother and saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for everything…" Declan looked confused as he said "What are you talking about nothing hap….." Aiden cut him off with "What I said about you not being able to take care of anyone. I know you were the one that got me out Declan. You came back for me and still got that girl out safely. I'm proud of you."
Declan hugged back saying with a smile and a bit of tears in his face "And I'm sorry I was angry with you or that I threw back at you the times I helped you. I was mad and I felt that you didn't trust in me. But thanks for doing so now." "Should have done so all along." Aiden held on tighter to his brother, needing the comfort that he was actually there. Though he trusted him it didn't mean he didn't worry.
Declan then said "Sit down Aiden you need to rest." He grunted as he laid back saying "Ugh I hate hospitals. Why you bring me here?" Declan sighed saying "Might as well tell you. Your legs hurt, you can't walk on it for a while. It's not broken but you can't work."
"What!" Aiden looked red in the face at this but Declan shoved the mug in his face saying "I got coffee." "Urrg, fine." he took the mug in his hand and began to swallow the warm liquid down his throat, strangely for him the highly caffeinated drink was soothing. Declan smiled to see his brother in a better mood, but knew it wouldn't last.
Suddenly they heard a voice said "Oh boys you're okay." They looked at the door surprised saying at the same time "Ma?" Ma and pa Cop where at the door with worried looks as they rushed in. Pa said "Hey boys, we came as soon as Declan told us what happened. You okay son?" Aiden growled but said "I will be as soon as I get out of this place." Ma sighed saying "Just like your grandfather. The man hated hospitals. Now then Declan and the doctors told us everything. So no work for a while mister." "But ma." "I said no work Aiden." "Yes ma." Ma smiled at this glad he had listened.
Declan then said "It's okay Aiden. I can take care of the station while you rest up and I'll move back in so I can help you out when I have time." "No!" the two bothers looked shocked as they looked at their parents. Pa said "Declan you go on ahead and work at the station like you should but you are not moving back in with your brother." The two became slacked jawed at this.
Ma said "We think this is an important step for you boys. You're growing up and spreading your wings, learning to be independent from each other. You two had always been together but you need to learn how to be apart so you can have your own lives as well." Pa nodded saying "It's true, you aren't the same person your tow different people. You both need to let that grow now." Ma then said "Oh and Declan dear I saw the news. How brave of you and that girl were to stand up to that duplo. My heart jumped into my throat at that." Declan looked shocked saying "Oh ma didn't mean to worry you, wait how did you know about….?"
Pa said "It's all over the news and all that fancy new technology son. Lots of people recorded fit with their fancy phones the crazy stung you and that girl did with that duplo. I'm not so sure about that method but it got the job done." Ma then said "I also got a clear view of her. She's a lovely girl Declan. When are you're going to see her again? Oh you two will have such cute babies."
Declan blushed madly at this and he yelled "Ma! I barely know her." Pa then aid "I barely knew your ma and I knew she was the one for me." Ma then said flirtatiously as she batted her eyes to her husband "Oh you." Aiden covered his eyes with a groan as he said "Pleas not in front of us." The two just laughed at that and then Declan said "But Aiden needs help he won't be able to walk and….."
Ma said "That's also why we came. We can take care of your brother while you do your own things. Plus I missed my boys." She came up and hugged them. Declan took the hug openly with a smiled while Aiden blushed but still accepted it. Pa laughed saying "Get used to it boys we'll be her a bit. At least till Aiden's legs all better." The brothers looked at each other a bit shocked. it was going to be a long couple of days.
Though they were glad they were there and they love their parents, they knew that their parents could also be a bit over the top. But they shook those thoughts out as Declan cheered happy to have the family there for a while and Declan shrugged but smiled, it be kind of strange having his parents all to himself most of the time. They had always shared them their whole lives, this would be very different.
The villain was furious, his duplos had been outwitted once again by that girl and that nousance of an officer Goodcop. What where they doing, how did the girl know how to handle his duplos and why did that cop listen to her? Now everyone knew about them and his failed plans. They knew nothing about him just yet but if these failures continued then his plan would be worthless.
The mad man needed to retreat and re-strategize. As for those two, the cop was worthless to him, but the girl….she was smart and that was getting in the way, but he wondered maybe she knew how to advance his duplos. A crooked grin spread across his face as he laid back on his blushed chair and thought of what he could do next.
