Hi I don't know if you received request about obanai so feel free to ignore this if you not comfortable or don't want to write it

I want to request about Obanai that when he got cage by his family reader family pass by and she found him then they become friends. Before she leaves the village Obanai ask her if he can get out of her will she marry him and she says yes.

Years pass and they meet at demon slayer corps as she becomes a new hashira, but you know that obanai in that time is fall in love with mitsuri. Reader remember him but he's not so she chooses to be silent about it.

After rengoku death kamaboko squad have hard time to sleep and as a good supervisor reader is she sing them a lullaby, the one she used to sang for Obanai, and that time obanai come to have a health checkup so he accidentally hear it. He remembers instantly and he go to confront reader.

The end is up to you you can make them together or just make him be with mitsuri.

Sorry for the long suggested.

This is actually my first request for Obanai, I was so excited when I got this request !

————————————————————————

It’s you again

warnings: spoilers to obanai’s backstory, angst, minor fluff, injuries (obanai), long paragraphs (I’m so sorry) not proofread, sorry if it’s a little fast paced

————————————————————————

You and your family had stopped at a village to rest. You had all been traveling through the forest almost all day and it was now dinner time. You were young, 9 to be exact. Your father had rented a small house for the 3 of you, shortly after settling in, your mother started dinner. “Mommy, can I go out and explore? Please?” You drug out the please at the end, knowing your mom always gave in when you did it. You heard her soft laughter as she barely turned to you. “Sure darling, just make sure you’re back before sundown.” A huge grin was plastered on your face now. “Okay mommy!” You ran out of the door and started towards the forest.

After walking for a while, you came across a small abandoned house. Or so you thought. Curiosity got the best of you and you walked up to the house and entered. It was dark inside, too dark. Suddenly you heard small whimpering to your left. You looked over and saw the faintest shadow of a person. You crept closer to the person when you noticed there were bars all around them, like a cage. “D-don’t come any closer!” You realized it was a boy in the cage based off of his voice. Instead of listening, you kept getting closer, comforting him. “Hey, I won’t hurt you. Are you okay?” When you were infront of the bars, you could see him better. He had ragedy clothes and his hair was tied up out of his face slightly. And his eyes, his eyes were beautiful, the yellow and blue stood out amongst everything else. “Please, you have to leave!” He came up to you, closed off by the cage he was in. You almost screamed when you saw the cut mimicking a smile on his face.

Even though you were young, you knew it was best to stay calm. “Who are you?” There were tears in his eyes as he tried to suppress them by sniffling. “O-obanai.” “I’m Y/n.” He wiped away the tears in his eyes as he looked at you. You looked so innocent and sweet unlike him. “You’re pretty.” His words took you aback before you giggled. “Thank you. I think you are too.” He had never heard someone say something nice to him. He couldn’t believe it, but he smiled. A genuine smile. “Can you stay here with me? Please?” You hesitated before you answered him, looking outside. You saw how it was getting dark now and if you didn’t leave now, your mom would be worried. “I’m sorry, I can’t. My mommy told me to be back before sundown,” you saw as his face had sunk and he frowned a little, “but, I’ll come back tomorrow, with my mommy and daddy, ok?” He looked back up at you and his eyes lit up. “Okay!” You smiled at him. “Bye Obanai.” “Bye y/n..” With that, you left the small house and back to your temporary one.

As you ran through the door, you spoke up before anyone could greet you. “Mommy, daddy, there’s a boy in the woods, he needs our help!” Your mother looked at you wish wide eyes as she listened to what you had to say. “What was his name Y/n?” You looked at your father who had asked the question. “His name was Obanai.” “Hm, okay. Take us to him tomorrow morning before we leave. Was he injured?” “Uh huh! He had a huge cut along his mouth, like a smile!” You used your own fingers to mimic the cut. Your mother audibly gasped and put a hand to her mouth. “Oh my!” Your father cleared his throat. “Ahem, Y/n, dinner is ready, why don’t we eat?” You nodded as you climbed into a chair at the table. The rest of the night going by with ease. ————————————————————————

“Cmon, this way!” You and your parents had left the house early to find him, they followed you as you were certain on where you were going. When you saw the house into view, your heart raced with excitement. “There! That’s where he is.” The three of you reached the house in no time, your parents went in first in case something dangerous was inside, but there wasn’t. When you walked in to ran to the cage where he was. “Obanai? Are you in there.” You saw his faint shadow move as he went to the bars where you were. “Y/n, you came back!” You nodded frantically. “I told you I would, my mommy and daddy are here too.” They were already walking over to the two of you. As your mother crouched down, Obanai flinched a little. “It’s okay sweetie, we aren’t going to hurt you.” Your mother reached inside her coat pocket and grabbed some bandages. “Can you put these on yourself?” Obanai looked at you as if he was asking you if she was safe. You nodded your head at him and he looked back at your mother. “U-uh huh.” Your mother smiled at him as she passed the bandages to him.

He took them from her hand hesitantly, but when he did he instantly started bandaging himself. “Thank you.” “You’re welcome darling.” There had been a question bothering you this whole time, and your little 9 year old brain couldn’t suppress it anymore. “Mommy can he come with us?” She looked over at you and back at him with sorrowful eyes. “I’m afraid not hunny, we don’t have anything for him. We must be going now too, we can’t risk anymore daylight.” Your father nodded. You felt tears form in your eyes. You didn’t dare to protest because you knew it was true. You guys couldn’t care for him right now. Your mother looked back at Obanai. “I’m sorry sweetie, but we must be going. Goodbye.” Her and your father stood up and walked to the door, leaving you and Obanai alone. “Obanai I’m so sorry-“ He cut you off. “Y/n, if I ever get out of here and I see you again, will you promise to marry me?” You looked into his eyes and you knew he was being genuine. You wiped away your tears just then. “Yeah, I will.” You smiled at him as you looked back at your parents. “Bye Obanai..” “Bye Y/n.” And that was the last time you ever talked to him. ————————————————————————

9 years later..

After 2 years of training, you had finally become a Hashira. You decided to join the corps when your father was slaughtered by a demon, so you wanted to avenge him. The master had sent you a letter informing you the next meeting would be an introduction for you. That was sent 2 days ago though, and the meeting was today. You were beyond nervous.

As you walked to the Master’s mansion, you saw the other Hashira. You would be the 10th one. The only one you knew was Rengoku as you were his Tsuguko. Rengoku saw you and went up to you. “Hello there Y/n! It’s great to see you have finally become a Hashira, I’m glad to be working beside you now!” You smiled as you fumbled your hands a bit. “Me too Rengoku!” As the meeting was about to start, you took a seat beside him. You would have to introduce yourself at the end, so you weren’t too nervous yet. It seemed the end came way too quick, the master had asked you to come beside him; you followed his directions and did so. “Everyone, this is Y/n. She has worked hard for the past 2 years to become a Hashira. I hope you all give her a warm welcome.” You bowed to everyone before you went back to your seat beside Rengoku.

When you were all dismissed, the love Hashira, who introduced herself as Kanroji. “I can tell me and you are going to be best friends!” You smiled at her as you agreed. You talked to a few more Hashira before they all started to leave, you included. You had learned about a boy named Tanjiro Kamado and how he was special traveling with his demon sister.

There was one thing at the meeting that you couldn’t seem to ignore. The serpent Hashira. You knew who he was with those eyes. He was Obanai. You didn’t have the chance to talk to him, and maybe that was a good thing. He didn’t seem to remember you. ————————————————————————

3 months later…

You were out eating with Kanroji when she mentioned obanai. “You know, everyone says he likes me, but I think he’s just sweet. I mean he is cute though!” You remembered the thing Obanai told you before you left him. How he wanted to marry you if he ever got out, but it looks like he wants someone else. “Well, I’m sure he does like you. The two of you would be adorable together.” Her face got insanely red as you laughed at her.

Just then your crow flew in. “Y/n, Rengoku-San has passed away.” You and Kanroji stared at each other as tears flooded both of your eyes. “T-that can’t be true.” “I’m afraid it is..Shinobu has requested you specifically Y/n to take care of the three boys that accompanied him on his mission.” You wiped away your tears as you nodded. “I’m sorry Kanroji, I must be going.” “It’s alright, I’ll see you later.” You bowed to her and followed your crow out to the butterfly mansion.

When you got there, she escorted you to a room with three boys. One being Tanjiro. When he saw you he slightly lit up. “Hello Y/n-san.” You gave him a weak smile. “Hi Tanjiro.” You looked over to see a boy with yellow hair and a boy with a boar mask crying. Tanjiro seemed the be the only one not crying, but you knew he was. “Shinobu told me to take care of you guys. It’s hard on us all.” It seemed something snapped in Tanjiro because he started crying yet again. The reason Shinobu requested you specifically was because you were the sweetest Hashira out of them all, and the most emotional. Seeing them all cry made you cry. So now, the room was filled with crying people all over. You held your arms out and suddenly all three of them ran to you. You embraced them all, trying to calm yourself. You took some deep breaths and it seemed to help.

You couldn’t seem to calm the others though, there was only one thing you could think of: a lullaby. You only knew one though, and it was the one you sung to obanai before you left him the first day.

{Baby mine, don’t you cry

Baby mine, dry your eyes

Rest your head close to my heart

Never to part, baby mine}

Obanai was visiting the butterfly mansion for his check up. As he was passing by the room the four of you were in, he recognized the lullaby you sang. He paused for a moment before turning back. He carefully opened the door and saw you standing there hugging the three boys. You continued to sing as you noticed it was working to calm them.

“I know that song.” You paused suddenly and slowly turned to see him standing at the door. “I remember a girl used to sing it to me. I can’t quite remember her though.” You told the boys you would be back and you asked Obanai to talk outside. As you shut the door you looked up at him. You realized how different he looked than he used to. “You see, that girl was me.” His eyes went wide as he looked at you, and he saw the resemblance. She was you. “You look so..different.” You shuffled, slightly uncomfortable. “Yeah, you too.” Just then, he seemed to remember everything. “I remember I told you if I ever got out of marry you.” You chuckled nervously. “Yeah you did.”

The two of you stood there in an uncomfortable silence before he spoke up. “Well, I hope you didn’t take that seriously. I’ve fallen for Kanroji.” You couldn’t help but feel sad. Your heart broke. You spent all these years looking for him, only for him to choose someone else. “Haha, of course I didn’t take it seriously, we were young.” He let out a sigh of relief. “Good, I would’ve felt a little bad if you did.” He looked at the clock on the wall and realized what time it was. “I must be going now. See you later Y/n.” “Yeah..see you.” He turned around and walked away from you, leaving you there.

Your heart broke even more now. The man you wanted was out of your grasp. ————————————————————————

You were at Kanroji and Obanai’s wedding. You were one of Kanroji’s bridesmaids. You watched as the two of them said their “I do’s”, you kept a smile on your face, however it was fake. The tears streamed down your face as you watched him pull her in and kiss her. You hoped the people from the audience saw your tears as tears of joy, and not sad tears. You were happy for your friend of course, but you couldn’t help but wish it was you instead of her.

older!johnny cage > listen up

you just can't seem to follow orders, so johnny explains them loud and clear... :3

warnings: you're a dilf obsessed freak and you get yelled at idk, he's meaner than usual, idk how the military works

[ masterlist ]

• lieutenant cage was, at the best of times, a strong advisor and wise man.

• at his worst of times, he's barking orders at the squad like a pack of dogs, not that you'd complain if he forced you to all fours, if we're all being honest here.

• some bat out of netherrealm must've pissed in his coffee this morning, and johnny was making it everyone's problem by forcibly refreshing everyone on basic commands. you wonder if it was just an excuse for him to yell his frustration away.

• "fall in!" his booming voice startles you from your trance and you're snapped back to your position, you and other recruits standing in front of johnny in dead-still positions.

• "ten-hut!" he calls, and your back snaps straight. you groan to yourself at the sudden movement, and lieutenant cage catches the sound. his head snaps toward you with a scowl. "no complaining or we're here til sundown, is that clear?!"

• "yes, sir!" your voice can only boom as much, far less trained in the art of... yelling at people.

• cage rattles on about something regarding everyone not knowing their lefts and rights, and decides everyone is deserving of a refresher. so, he stands with his hands behind his back.

• "left face!" you pivot instantly, the choir of shuffling around you moves with you like a strict ocean. "right face!" you return to your previous position with your stick-up-your-ass military posture.

• he barks the directions out in rapid succession, the crowd following it seamlessly... except for you. maybe you didn't get enough sleep, or maybe johnny's cruel voice was making you dizzier than the pivoting was. you stumbled over yourself, a beat behind the rest.

• you stood out like a sore thumb as much as you wished to blend in out of embarrassment. your wonky timing was painfully obvious against the crowd, and johnny let out a loud groan, ripping his sunglasses from his face.

• "christ on a bike," he grumbles, uttering your last name. "are you gonna follow orders or sit there like an idiot?"

• your lips shut tight, eyes forward as johnny stomps up, nearly brushing his chest in your face. his breathing stutters, and you fight every urge to not look up into his eyes.

• "you don't know how to listen, do you?" he growls, nearly speaking into the top of your head. "wasting my god damn time."

• "sorry, sir," your voice shrinks in your throat, which apparently deeply offends johnny today.

• his hand flies to your jaw, holding somewhere between your neck and your jaw as he tilts your head up, applying pressure as the sides of your vision blur out.

• "you're gonna speak loud and clear to me when you answer me, is that clear?" his voice teeters between a whisper and growl, eyes darting between yours.

• you wanted to be scared, you wanted to be compliant and listen to his order, but his hand was literally on your neck. this flustered you, embarrassingly easy and words were almost impossible. your vision spaces out, eyes wandering as you try to ground yourself.

• johnny tugs at your face, drawing your attention back. "look at me when i speak to you."

• "yes, sir," you choke out, a little clearer this time.

• his brows furrow for a moment, lip twitching in a dubious expression you'd never seen on his aged face before. "you're gonna be the death of me."

• you don't even get a moment to contemplate his curious choice of words, as his hand pulls away from your face and he spins on his heel, retreating to his previous position.

• he barks that everyone is starting over because of you and a quiet wave of sighs and shuffles heat your face. it was already mortifying to be humiliated in front of your squad, but you were berated by none other than your dilfy work crush... your boss. maybe you could curl up into a ball and die here and now.

• after a few hours of stupid, repetitive training you want to do nothing more than rot in your bed, ignoring the pissed looks of your colleagues. just as you're about the exit the room, a hand shoots out to squeeze at your wrist, nearly dragging you backward from the unexpected force.

• a firm voice states your last name, and you instantly recognize it as your very upset boss. you swallow thickly and try to put on your best neutral expression as you turn to face him.

• "my office," he says, though it doesn't sound like a request and more like a command. "now."

On the eve of Operation Desert Storm, in a bunk bed on the USS Midway.

"You scared, Mav?"

Long silence and a soft kiss.

"You know what really scares me? Living too long. Losing my hair and my teeth… and my guts and my wind. And my brains… sitting in a room with my hands in my lap, watching daytime tv."

28 years later, Maverick buries his husband on a sunny day in November. It's not missiles or guns that take him away, but a disease born from too much alcohol and cigarettes.

One week later, Maverick survives the suicide mission. He takes over the permanent special ops Dagger Squad.

Spring 2020 brings a worldwide lockdown. Chipper loses his fight after 19 days in the ICU. Sundown succumbs to loneliness and dark ghosts 8 weeks later. None of the old companions manage to say goodbye.

On a hot summer day a few years on, they lay Hollywood and Wolfman to rest side by side. A tragic car ride in a heavy storm, they stay together in life and death. Slider and Maverick hold each other, last men standing, the medals on their chest too heavy on a day like this.

First, it's small things, forgetting dates, medication, names. Soon Bradley and Jake take Mav in, making sure he's not alone, but it's not getting better. Slider might be a familiar face, Mav knows he's a brother, but he can't recall their history. He doesn't know what the other man means when he talks about a cancer diagnosis.

It's a sunny day when Slider takes them on one last flight over the sparkling blue waters of the Pacific ocean.

Word Count: 1,070

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The text from Beau was not the one you were expecting.

Admiral Jackass

"You've been called back." Sent Read 1:02pm

Admiral Jackass typing…

You're one stop away from making dreams happen again, you shiver with anticipation and take a deep breath, thinking back to your favorite group of students when they were younger.

At that point, it was within the early years of your teaching career.

After the class of 86' you didn't teach as often but when there was an important mission or the admiral's needed someone they knew could get the lieutenants properly trained, they called you.

You take a deep breath, walking down the hallway, realizing you've missed the feeling you (still) get walking down the halls towards your next group of lieutenants.

You walk down the pathway in between the desks much like you did when you taught his class.

Another reason for the text, he's late and Beau wants them to learn now.

You turn and eye each of the lieutenants, seeing who's confident and who's not. Something else you were known for, identifying the weak and making them stronger if they're up for it.

It was how you got him back when he lost his family.

They don't call you "Sly Fox" the Modifier for nothing (you wish your husband didn't get that started, it's stuck and you can't get rid of it).

The corner of your lips twitch, remembering more of your infamous class of 86' only because of the overly confident blond sitting in one of the first few seats.

You lean against the podium, clasping your hands together. "Who thinks they have what it takes for this mission?"

They start turning, glancing at one another.

"Do you?" You turn your attention onto the infamous Hangman.

He smirks, messing with his toothpick. "I don't think, I know I do."

"Cockiness gets you and your crew into some seedy situations."

"It get me out of them."

The door opens and your favorite captain enters.

You straighten your posture and turn back to him. "These people are you crew, you need to have their backs, or no one will have yours and you'll be alone."

He walks down the path you and uses the confidence you told him to.

The one you've claimed as "Mini Mav" turns, flipping his toothpick before sinking into his seat, followed by two others.

"It seems it's my time to leave." You throw a wink in Pete's direction before walking towards the opening.

You didn't see the way Bradley's eyes widened at the way you interact with him.

He has a vague memory of you hanging out with his family once or twice and calling his mom after losing his dad.

"Don't have too much fun, Mav." You pat his shoulder, "you've got a live one."

He furrows his brows.

You glance back at the class once more before deciding to take your leave. "Good to see you again, Bob."

He smiles and waves back at you.

Natasha turns to him with furrowed brows. "How do you know her?"

He shrugs, "she taught my first class a while back."

"She remembers your name?"

"And," he shrugs.

"You were so her favorite."

You make your way to the opening of the hanger and sigh, "I told you guys to- no, no."

You pinch the bridge of your nose and groan.

One of the technicians runs back into the hanger tripping over his feet.

You pull up beside him on one of the carts. "I told you not to run. I wasn't upset."

"I beg to differ ma'am."

You grab them by their collar. "I'm going to show you a thing or two. I was trying to help you."

You drive back out without looking back, already knowing that Beau is shaking his head while Pete and the class are trying not to laugh.

"Do you get it now?"

He nods. "That wasn't as complicated as I thought."

"Good, now do it again to this row." You can see the excitement fall from his face and can't help but chuckle.

"No, kid. She's just messing with you." You husband wraps an arm around your waist, pecking your cheek as he places his hat on your head. "Hey, sweetheart."

You smile and lean in for a kiss, having missed him with the grandkids out at school and spending more time with their friends since they're starting to get more freedom from their parents now that they've proven themselves responsible.

"Feels like I haven't seen you in forever."

He smiles, "feels like it's been forever."

"It has. What brought you out here?"

"A little birdie told me you might be maiming one of the techs."

You scoff, "as if."

You both turn to the technician and finding him staring at the two of you in awe. "Holy- Wolfman and Sly Fox are married?"

"Where have you been?" Leonard asks.

"Under a rock apparently."

You snort, covering your mouth. "Alright, we'll talk more later. Get to work before Cyclone comes for you."

"Yes, ma'am."

You two start walking away and head towards the hanger.

You glance at him through your lashes, grateful he put his hat on your head. "You're not gonna believe who's teaching and in his class."

He groans. "Don't tell me, Mav's here."

You nod. "Along with baby Goose."

"Nick's kid is here?"

You nod, pulling him behind you.

You both turn the corner, searching over the hanger for the one person you want him to see.

Pete turns to you and pauses, raising a brow.

You sheepishly smile and pull your husband away from the hanger.

"He looks just like him, don't you think?"

"Mustache and all. Damn."

"What?" You stare at him, watching him get dressed.

"Goose would have loved this."

The corner of your lips tugs upwards. "I know." A wishful sigh slips past your lips. "You'll never guess what I discovered in their class."

"What?" He asks with amusement.

"Don't be a smartass."

"Hey, you married me in spite of it."

"Yes, yes. Whatever. Mav has a mini Maverick."

"Mav produced?"

You scoff, "no but there's a kid just like him."

"That's less fun than him teaching his own kid."

"He's got baby Goose for that."

"True." He closes the locker, "you ready?"

You all but run into his arms, letting his arm rest over your shoulders. "Take me home, honey."

"As long as you'll have me."

Crossing Paths

Request: What about another one that takes place right after this one, where Ice is watching the reader at the park and she runs off.

Masterlist

A/N: I loved writing this! Thank you @lemmons1998 for requesting it!

Nobody expected Ice to become Y/N's best adult friend second to Goose. Something about her just melted the hard ice-cold exterior of the man. Maverick trusted Ice, well he trusted everyone in his squadron, enough to have them watch his little girl. He knew mistakes would happen along with accidents while she was in their care and he of course he would be upset, who wouldn't, but he wasn't going to hold a grudge. He might bring it up jokingly but there was no malace behind it.

The entire squad had decided to go to the park, along with Bradley but not Carole since she had planned to go out with some friends. Everyone showed up pretty much at the same time and when Y/N saw Ice she ran to him, with Maverick behind her, and tackling his legs. Goose acted hurt but knew she would be over to him and Bradley in no time.

"Uncky Icee! Uncky Sli!" She yelled out and everyone chuckled Ice bent down and picked her up and hugged her. In all honesty, he didn't mind the name.

"Hey, Y/N/N." Slider said and high-fived her.

"Hey, kid. Nice to see you." He said and hugged her after they broke apart she wanted down and he did and she ran to Goose and Bradley.

"Uncky Goosey!" She said and gave him the same treatment.

"Hi, Princess." He said and then she saw Bradley and squirmed to be put down and he did and she grabbed Bradley's hand and they took off towards the swing sets. Now it was just the group of men watching the kids play and hang out.

The group of men talked about anything and everything as well as poked fun at each other. Every now and then Y/N and Bradley would run to the group for food and drinks but then they would run back out to play. After the squad had met the female kid version of Maverick they fell in love. Y/N also had grown close to Slider or Uncky Sli.

A phone began to ring and it was Maverick's he got it out and looked at it. "Sorry guys I have to take this. Ice you got her?" He asked his wingman and he nodded.

"You know I do Maverick." Ice said and he nodded Maverick nodded his head and took off while answering his phone. They watched the two kids play while they were watching them the others decided to play some volleyball, Slider, Goose, and Ice decided to sit out this round. Goose and Slider were watching the game going on and Ice looked over for one minute and looked back and couldn't see the littlest Mitchell anywhere and he freaked out. Bradley ran over to them freaking out as well and ran to Goose.

"Daddy! I can't find Y/N." He said in a panicked voice and that got all three men's attention.

"What do you mean?" Goose asked his son.

"We're playing hide and seek and then I found her. Then we started to play tag and she ran off." Bradley said and Goose nodded listening. Ice called the other men over and they told them everything. That is how the graduates of Top Gun were spread throughout the park looking for the littlest Mitchell. That is when Maverick decided to walk back from his phone call.

"What are you all doing?" Maverick asked and then looked around not seeing his kid "Where is my daughter?" He asked them and Ice spoke up.

"Bradley and Y/N were playing hide and seek and then they played tag and Bradley said that she just took off. I looked over to Hollywood and Sundown were playing volleyball with Merlin and Wolfman." Ice said trying to keep calm.

"I'm not mad. Just worried. Keep looking for her and I'll start heading in this direction." Maverick said which was the way to the water. He was walking that way and calling out her name every now and then.

▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎

Y/N was at the benches around the water looking around. She was lost and she started to cry. A lady came up to her noticing she was crying and looked lost.

"Sweetheart, are you ok?" The lady asked and she shook her head and looked at her with doe eyes.

"I lost my daddy." She said in a quiet voice and looked down. The lady bent down.

"Oh, Sweetheart. We'll find him. I'm Penny. What's your name?" Penny asked her still bending down at her level.

"Y/N but Daddy calls me Sunshine." She said in a quiet voice. Penny smiled at the little girl.

"How old are you?" Penny asked curiously.

"4." Y/N said and looked up sniffling but smiling and held up 4 on her fingers.

They continued to talk. Penny was just trying to make the little girl comfortable and happy before going to try and find her daddy.

▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎

He was about to go back and regroup his squad when he saw his little girl with someone that he thought he wouldn't see in a long time. Who would that be if you may ask? Well, none other than Penny Benjamin, Admiral Benjamin's daughter that Maverick messed around with and got shipped off. He sighed in relief though he was trying to avoid Penny but he knew he would end up running into her at some point.

Maverick walked over to the two and saw tear tracks running down his daughter’s cheeks but they had been dried. She looked up and spotted her daddy. "Daddy!" She shrieked out and ran to him and practically jumped into his arms. Penny stood up from her crouching position.

"Oh, Sunshine. You had me and everyone else scared to death. Are you ok?" Maverick said looking at her and she nodded.

"Uh-huh! Penny stayed with me." She said. Penny was looking at the two of them and a smile came to her face and she smiled. This was a side of Maverick that she could get used to. Penny was thinking that he had matured and is a great dad.

"Sunshine, go back to Uncle Ice. I'll be there soon." Maverick told her and she nodded and he put her down and ran off to Ice. He then looked over to Penny.

"She's your daughter?" Penny asked Maverick and he nodded.

"Yes." Maverick nodded not knowing how to respond.

"Why didn't you tell me about her?" Penny asked and Maverick looked down bashfully.

"I didn't know how to bring her up. Her mom is not in the picture and hasn't been since she was born. She was a result of a one-night stand." Maverick told her and she nodded.

"She's an adorable little girl. She looks just like you." Penny told Maverick and that made him smile. She didn't judge him like others did when he was in the store or anywhere with her or when he told them the situation.

"Hey, do you want to say hi to the rest of the gorup?" He asked and she nodded.

"Sure. It will be nice to catch up." She said and they headed over to the group who were fussing over the little girl. Y/N saw Penny and ran up to her and hugged her then ran off back to the playground where Bradley was at. Maverick sat back a little and watched everyone interact with Penny and watched his daughter practically fall in love with her.

It was getting late and everyone decided to leave. Goose called Bradley over and they all bid everyone goodbye and threw Maverick a wink. Ice and Slider were next and then Hollywood, Merlin, Wolfman, and Sundown. It was just Penny, Maverick, and Y/N. Maverick called Y/N over and she immediately rushed over and into his arms.

"You know I would love to get to know her better and spend more time with you." Penny told Maverick and nodded.

"I would love that." Maverick told Penny and it was silent for a few minutes and then a small little snore made them look down at a worn-out little girl. They both laughed. "I think I need to get this little girl home." Maverick said not taking his eyes off of his little girl and Penny could see the love in his eyes.

"I'll walk with you." Penny said and stood up as Maverick did too. They walked and talked until they reached his car. He gently put her in her car seat without waking her and Penny's heart melted. They exchanged phone numbers and promised to call each other and then they hugged and it was a passionate hug and full of emotion.

▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎

True to his word Maverick called Penny and they went out several times. Y/N absolutely fell in love with Penny and the other way around. She kept asking Maverick when she was going to see Penny again and it brought a smile to his face. It was a Friday night when he had Penny come over to cook for her and let Y/N see her. As she walked into the house Maverick started talking to her. "Y/N keeps asking about you." Maverick said with a smirk.

"Oh does she?" Penny asked as Maverick shut the door and he nodded. Just then they heard little patters of feet running to them.

"Penny!" She yelled and tackled her legs.

"Hi, Sweetheart. How are you?" She asked bending down and picking her up.

"Good!" She yelled and everyone chuckled. She put her down and she scurried off to play.

Supper came and went and the next thing little Y/N knew it was bedtime. Penny was still there so she got to witness the love Maverick had when it came to her. "Daddy! Penny put me to bed." She said as they came out of the bathroom and he looked over to Penny.

"Sunshine-" Maverick started but Penny cut him off.

"I would love to put her to bed." She said and Y/N shouted with glee she got down from her daddy’s arms and ran to Penny and made the motion to be picked up. She happily did just that. Maverick showed her the room and walked out saying to call him if needed.

Penny went through the routine of putting her to bed and when Y/N was falling asleep she said something that surprised her. "Goodnight momma." She said and snuggled into her stuffed F-14 and was asleep in an instant. Penny was shocked but it felt right. She walked out of the room while turning the light off and cracking the door, smiling. She walked into through kitchen where Maverick was cleaning up. He looked up and noticed her smiling.

"Did she go down easily?" He asked her and she nodded but continued to smile "What is it?" He asked smiling himself.

"She called me momma." She said in a breathless tone with love in her eyes.

"Penny, I'm so sorry. I'll talk to her in the morning." Maverick said while his smile dropped and moved to her, but she was still smiling.

"Maverick, it's ok." Penny said grabbing his hands and calming him down and he looked at her with the same doe eyed expression that Y/N has.

"Really?" He asked

"Yes. It felt right. I don't mind her calling me that." Penny said and Maverick pulled her into a hug and then pulled away and kissed her. He pulled away when they needed air.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked and she nodded.

"I would love nothing more." She said and he kissed her again.

▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎

Maverick and Penny dated for 2 years before he proposed and she said yes. When Y/N found out she was delighted. Everyone was shocked but supported him fully. They were engaged for 2 years since Maverick was still being deployed and they had to plan the wedding around that.

When they married it was the happiest days of his, hers, and Y/N's lives. Maverick got an absolutely stunning wife and someone who could be a mother to his daughter. Penny got a daughter and a loving husband. Y/N got a mother and someone to keep her safe and teach her things that a father couldn't teach her. After a few weeks of them being married and going through a lot of paperwork, Penny was able to adopt Y/N and become her official mother.

They became a family. A family that Maverick and Y/N didn't know they needed until they found Penny. Everything felt and was right in the world, well at least in the Mitchell household. They couldn't wait to spend the rest of their lives together.

🇮🇱SRI LANKA TRAVEL WARNING, POLICE DRAMA - Real time from Israel

ISRAEL REALTIME - Connecting to Israel in Realtime

( VIDEO - The remains of Kfar Kila, a southern Lebanese near-border Hezbollah village that also acted as a major launch site. )

✡️Tonight is SIMCHAT TORAH starts tonight, where we celebrate with the Torah! Chag Samayach, a joyful holiday!

.. Several rabbis have noted: How can we celebrate when this war started on this holiday last year? When so many fell, so many remain hostages, so many are fighting and so many have given their lives in our defense?

They answer: very much in the name of the fallen, in the name of the hostages, in the name of the Jewish people and those who have sacrificed, WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE ENEMY to destroy our holiday, to destroy our joy and celebration.

AM YISROEL CHAI, the Jewish people live! We will celebrate, we will win, we will honor their sacrifice.

✡️As a Jewish holy-day, we DO NOT POST news from sundown for 26 hours unless there is a LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCY.

⚠️ISRAEL NATIONAL SECURITY TRAVEL WARNING.. calls on the Israelis to immediately leave the Arugam Bay area and the coastal area in the south and west of Sri Lanka due to terror threat to Israeli tourists, following a warning about a terrorist squad of the Revolutionary Guards mission in the area.

⚠️ HOME FRONT COMMAND - - if you find rocket or drone debris during holiday outdoor activity, DO NOT TOUCH IT - contact Home Front (dial 104) or the Police (dial 100). The parts may be dangerous or toxic, or be important for security.

♦️LEBANON - TZUR-TYRE.. Civil Defense in Tyre walks the streets of the city and asks citizens through loudspeakers to evacuate immediately. The Civil Defense closed the entrances to the city of Tyre to prevent entry. Heavy IDF attacks.

♦️LEBANON - (enemy reports) Dozens of IDF air force attacks on more than 20 villages and towns in Lebanon.

🔹IRANIAN TERROR PROPAGANDA.. a new mural in the center of Tehran: No (Israeli) hostage will be released.

🔹HOUTHIS CLEAR THEIR PORT? Houthi leader Abdel Malik al Houthi issued an urgent order to the owners of the containers in the port to clear out the Hodediah port, immediately. ???

🔹GERMANY SAYS.. German Foreign Minister: Israel succeeded in weakening Hezbollah to a great extent, and the task now is to reach an effective diplomatic solution.

🔹US INTEL AIRCRAFT.. The US is operating reconnaissance aircraft in the Persian Gulf to monitor the movements of Iranian surface-to-surface missiles.

🔹US SEC STATE GOES TO SAUDI ARABIA.. from Israel.�� Riyadh: The American Secretary of State in Lincoln met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan, and talked with them about "the developments in Gaza and Lebanon"

▪️ON ISRAEL APPROVING THE NEW COVID VACCINE.. I received significant STRONG negative feedback about the Israel Min. Of Health approving and bringing into the fall vaxx schedule the new COVID vaccine. It has become ridiculously difficult to determine the facts around COVID vaccines, and I can only advise to consult with a trusted medical professional before taking this vaccine, and there are categories of people who should clearly avoid it such as men under 30.

.. Israel no longer has public COVID testing, COVID (and flu, and both together, and strep - quick test kits are available at pharmacies), so there is no case rate data.

.. The last info I can find on COVID in Israel is 14 cases hospitalized in June, all seniors with other health problems. This is the “from COVID or with COVID” argument, and the article seems to state “with”.

SKELETONS | ch. 53

daryl dixon x f!oc

masterlist

a03 link

Summary: The rescue team returns to Atlanta with backup and a plan. Warnings/Information: AMC's The Walking Dead OC Insert | 18+ Advised | strangers to lovers; the slowest of slow burns; gore; angst; horror; humour; m/f; mocking religion; cop insults; kidnapping; keeping cops as hostages; hostage negotiation; premeditating the murder

Chapter 53 - Hostage

When Michonne spotted them coming out of the brush, she had grinned so wide, but it faded quickly when she realized Carol was not with them. And that they had someone else with them instead.

The kid introduced himself as Noah. He was helpful enough, did his part while they talked about their next course of action. Rick also took the time to fill them in on everything they had missed. Bob got bit, kidnapped by survivors from Terminus, eaten, and died in the back of the church. Rick, Michonne, Sasha, Abraham and a couple others finally killed Gareth and his gang of psychopaths. Abraham took Eugene, Rosita, Glenn and Maggie on their way to Washington, leaving the rest to meet Iris, Carol and Daryl when they returned and follow when they were able.

Iris and Daryl helped Sasha and Tyreese dismantle the pipe organ and a few pews in the church to use for material.

Sasha was furious. She was taking out her grief and anger on the church pew, laying her axe into the wood enough times that it was almost sawdust, and she started to dig into the floor. Daryl carried another armful of pipes outside to where Iris was starting to dig them into the ground. Rick, Carl and Michonne were nailing wood boards from the pews to the windows.

“Are you going to take the cross, too?” Gabriel asked, trying to be snarky, but Daryl just raised an eyebrow.

“If we need it.” He replied, shoving one of the pipes into the ground. The ends were points, which helped them build a little bottleneck of spikes near the porch.

“The lord provides.” Iris retorted with a smirk. Daryl shot her a grin, but Gabriel grimaced. Iris was simply itching to return to Atlanta. But Noah reasoned, the longer they wait, the better Carol will be by the time they come to get her.

Despite Rick’s apprehension about returning to Atlanta, he agreed that they all owed Carol their lives. And if Noah assured them that Beth would be alive, then they needed to go get her. They built a small task force of Rick, Iris, Daryl, Noah, Sasha and Tyreese. Michonne would stay back to reinforce the church with Gabriel, Judith and Carl, and hopefully they would return with two more members of their group. They had already lost so much.

Iris sat in the back of the truck with Noah, Tyreese and Sasha while Daryl drove, Rick sitting in the passenger seat while Daryl relayed everything they knew about these people. Most of them were actually cops from Atlanta, Noah explained, but very few of them deserved the title anymore. Iris hoped for Rick’s sake that he didn’t know any of them.

“At sundown we fire a shot into the air, get two of them out on patrol.” Rick suggested as they surrounded the poor makeshift map he’d made out of rocks and pieces of debris on the floor.

They had commandeered an old warehouse on the university campus, presumably once used as a garage for agricultural equipment, cars and trucks for campus security. They moved to the top floor where large windows looked out and down into Grady Memorial. Their small squad stood around Rick’s map, formulating a plan of action, a plan of rescue.

“Then once its dark enough that the rooftop spotter won’t see us, we go.” Rick continued. “We cut the locks on one of the stairwells and take it to the fifth floor. I open the door, Iris takes the guard out—“

“How?” Tyreese interrupted.

“She slits his throat.” Rick replied. He looked up at Iris for confirmation and she nodded. She didn’t want to kill anyone, but they’d taken Beth. They’d brought it upon themselves. Besides, that ship had long sailed. If there was an afterlife, she’d be having tea parties with Satan. “This is all about doing this quiet, keeping the upper hand. They’re not expecting us. From there, we fan out. Knives and silenced weapons. We need to be fast. Tyreese, Sasha, take them.” He drew out more X’s in the dust with a stick. “Daryl, you take care of whoever’s in the kitchen, I got Dawn.”

Dawn was their leader, Noah explained. She was a formidable enemy, a police officer trying to keep peace by brutalizing and holding other survivors captive. She was not a good person. She was also apparently under a similar delusion to Abraham, one where all the armed forces and government officials would pop out with a surprise party and save everyone.

“If they’re smart, the rest of them will give up, then it’ll be six on three. Seven on three once we get a weapon to Beth.” Rick continued.

“Thirteen on three. The wards will help.” Noah assured with a nod.

“That’s best case. What’s worst case?” Tyreese asked.

“We all die in a fiery hailstorm of walkers, bullets and blood.” Iris stated, looking up at each of them.

“Sounds like a good way to spend a Friday night.” Daryl replied, cocking his crossbow onto his shoulder. Tyreese shook his head, so serious.

“All it takes is one of those cops going down the hall at the wrong time. Then it’s not quiet. All hands on deck. We’re talking about a lot of bullets flying around.” Tyreese murmured.

“If thats what it takes.” Sasha shrugged.

“It’s not.” Tyreese scowled. “If we get a couple of her cops alive, out here, we can do an even trade.” He suggested. “Theirs for ours. Everybody goes home.” Iris pondered. It wasn’t actually a bad idea, low risk, high reward. If they could pull it off.

“What about Noah? What if they demand him back?” Iris asked. The kid looked up, nodding in thanks.

“We can’t allow them to force our hand.” Rick hummed. “If they pick a fight, we’ll give ‘em one.” Iris grinned a frightening grin, and Noah shivered.

“You say this Dawn, she’s just trying to keep it together, right?” Daryl asked. Noah nodded.

“Trying and doing are two different things.” He pointed out.

“You take two of her cops away, what choices does she have?” Daryl asked. “Everybody goes home, like he says.” Iris nodded her agreement. Though this all depended on how desperate, how fragile, how manic Dawn was already. If they pushed her over the edge, it might result in a dogfight none of them wanted. But Beth and Carol had to be worth the risk. Rick eyed Daryl for disagreeing with him, but in the sort of way that conveyed respect more than frustration. Tyreese glanced warily between the two, but Rick began to nod.

“Alright.” He grunted.

They set up in the warehouse around them, and when they were ready, Rick sent Noah down to the entrance. On cue, he fired four shots into the air. It took a few minutes, but soon the sound of squealing tires replaced the thundering heartbeat in Iris’ ears. They spotted Noah as he shot of another round, limping around a walkway. They cut off his path, just barely hitting him with the driver’s side headlight as they skidded to a stop. Noah fell to the ground with a grunt, clutching his injured leg. He scrambled up, trying to run, but they pulled out their guns.

“Put the gun down, Noah.” One of the officers, a woman, called. Noah stopped, putting the pistol down on the ground. “Hands up, turn around.” The other officer stomped forward as Noah turned his back to them, pulling out a zip tie for his wrists.

“Let me know if it’s too tight, okay?” He asked quietly as he bound his wrists behind his back.

“Thought you were smart, Noah. You think we wouldn’t hear you?” The woman asked.

“Where are those rotters you were shooting at?” The man asked, looking up with a frown. It was then that they shared a glance of realization.

“No rotters here.” Iris called from an empty space where a large window used to be. She was crouched, aiming a rifle down on the pair of them. “Holy shit, Officer Shepherd.”

“Iris Bowen.” The woman growled, scowling up at her. “Why aren’t I surprised you’re still at the wrong end of my gun?”

“Seems like the right side to me.” Daryl grumbled. Shepherd and the other officer whipped around, grimacing at being quickly surrounded by the others.

“You know this woman?” The male cop asked, frowning at his partner.

“The last time I saw you, you were caught street racing in a stolen Jaguar.” Shepherd grunted up at Iris, who simply grinned at the memory.

“Aw, it’s cute that you think you caught me.” She laughed. “I seem to remember doing donuts around your little cruiser until I got bored, and I still made it home in time for dinner. Tell me, do cops still like donuts?” Iris grinned. Daryl made a face at the bad joke, looking up at her. Iris shrugged.

“You little shit.” Shepherd grimaced, adjusting her aim toward Iris instead of Noah. Every rifle pointed at the two cops immediately cocked, and Iris tutted in warning.

“Hands.” Rick advised quietly.

“What do you want?” Shepherd asked.

“Whatever this is, we can help.” The other cop added.

“You do what we say, we don’t hurt you.” Rick explained lowly. Plain and simple.

“Okay.” The male cop agreed, putting his hands up and carefully letting his pistol hang from his index finger. Shepherd followed suit, scowling.

“Good. Now turn around.” Rick instructed calmly. “Place your guns on the floor and kneel.” They followed their directions and Iris hopped down from her window seat, cutting Noah’s bindings with a flash of her knife. Daryl and Sasha picked up the guns, zip-tying their wrists together. “We need to talk. There’s water if you need some, and food.”

“Mind if I ask you something?” The male cop asked, looking up at Rick. “The way you talk, the way you carry yourself… were you a cop?” Rick said nothing. “Well, believe it or not, I was too.”

“That’s Lamson.” Noah said quietly to Rick and Iris. “He’ll be down for this. He’s one of the good ones.”

They all paused as another set of tires squealed across the asphalt. The cops dove in one direction, the survivors in another. They unloaded their weapons on the car, but whoever it was ducked around their bullets, allowing Lamson and Shepherd to climb into the back seats. It was this black car that took Beth, Iris realized. The same damn one. It peeled away in a hurry, but Sasha ran forward, firing one more bullet into the tire. It burst with a loud pop and they sprinted after it.

Around the corner the car sat empty, a smattering of burned bodies between them and a water tower and another tall building. The bodies writhed and Iris realized the walkers were still alive, though their skin and muscle melted to the ground, essentially piles of conscious melted flesh with a death grip on whatever was keeping them “alive.”

“There.” Iris said quietly, pointing across the way. Lamson and Shepherd ducked around the broken down car, running around the corner of the building.

“Two, on me.” Rick called. They tore after the two of them, but Daryl faltered. Iris paused halfway between, watching as Sasha, Tyreese, Rick and Noah caught up with Lamson and Shepherd, and Daryl got tackled to the ground by the third cop. Iris ran back toward him as Daryl stuck his fingers into the eye sockets of a nearby walker, ripping the skull and spinal chord from the ground and striking the cop across the head with it. He backed off as Iris cocked her gun, pointing it in the cop’s face.

“Okay.” He said, holding his hands up. “You win, you little bitch.” Daryl panted, glancing up at Iris as he pushed up to his feet. The cop stood up, Iris still training her rifle at the space between his particularly wide-set eyes.

“Iris…” Daryl murmured.

“Yeah, yeah.” She huffed, nodding. He stepped forward, frisking the cop before using another set of zip-ties to keep his arms back.

“Your friend. What’s his name?” Shepherd asked as Iris and Daryl escorted their hostages into the room where they’d planned this little heist. “I need to talk to him. Your plan is going to get me and my friends killed.” Iris whirled around, letting her rage peek through as her memories came flooding back.

“I seem to remember you being responsible for a lot of my friends’ deaths.” Iris hissed, Shepherd staggering to a stop as she got in her face. “Your long and painful death would be no loss to me, or any of us. We only need two.”

“We’ll make it work.” Sasha added, and Iris nodded to her, appreciating the backup even if Sasha had no idea what exactly she was backing up.

“It would work if you had different cops to trade.” Shepherd stated. “Dawn’s running Grady into the ground. A bunch of us want her out and she knows it. Pretty sure she knows we want Lamson to replace her, too.”

“Dawn doesn’t know that.” The third cop, Licari, denied.

“She might.” Shepherd insisted. “She’s smart. There’s a good chance you can’t make this deal work, and that’ll leave us all dead. But if you let us go, we’ll take care of Dawn ourselves and then we’ll let your friends go and this is over. We’ll never have to see each other again.” She assured, pointedly looking at Iris.

“What a miracle that would be.” Iris grunted, turning away.

“No. We’re not going to do that." Lamson murmured, staring off into space.

“Do you want to die?” Shepherd hissed angrily.

“No.” Lamson replied. “I just need you to shut up right now.” He blinked, turning his attention to Iris, Daryl and the others. “You can make this work. But you’ve gotta be able to talk to her.”

“Noah told us all about her.” Sasha explained. “I’ve known her for eight years, ma’am.” Lamson replied. “I know this woman. And my only interest is peaceful resolution, not dying, and sleeping in my bed tonight. So, please, let me help you. Please.”

“Hey, Rick.” Daryl called to where he was kneeling beside Noah, going over their plan by the map on the floor. “You’re gonna want to hear this.”

At first he thought that clumsiness got the best of you, he'd gladly take care of you, occasionally patting your bruises with a cold compress, or cleaning up little scratches with an antibiotic. But last night you came home with a deep gash on your shoulder, your once smooth skin marred by splotches of dried blood, you tried to hide it with a sweater, thinking he wouldn't notice you wincing everytime you moved your arms.

Of course he would notice.

He needs to know who keeps hurting you, someone needs to pay for the pain they've cost you. He keeps trying to ask you what happened but you keep dodging his questions.

"Just a scratch, babe"

"I tripped and fell, ain't that funny?"

"I bruise easily, remember?"

He jumps gracefully from a rooftop, swinging from building to building, not making a single sound as to not give away his position. Hobie follows your dark clad form, your hoodie hiding your scowl.

You cut through an alleyway, Hobie's spidey senses go off, sending electricity through his body. In slow motion, a squad of red armoured men ambush you, readying their weapons to shoot in your direction.

His heart thumps loudly in his chest "no, not you"

Questions rush through his mind rapidly. Did they find out that you're close to him, and you've been fighting for your life this whole time? How'd they find you? Do they know his secret identity? Why didn't you tell him?

Hobie jumps head first towards the alley, but before he could land, he hears you yell, not in pain but in anger. His head snaps towards the sound, expecting to see you cowering in defense, instead he sees you uppercut one of the intruders, shattering their mask into tiny shards.

The purple glow of your metal gauntlets shine brightly in the dark alley. The dark clothing you're wearing is now covered in the same glow, slowly wrapping around you like vines, forming metal plates around you like armour.

He stares in awe at your tech, forgetting for a second that you're in a fight.

He jumps into the fray, as he sees you dodge an oncoming kick, in retaliation, you punch the man in the stomach, hard. Hobie smirks at your hidden strength.

"Never thought you had it in you, love!" Hobie yells as he webs a man to the wall, effectively trapping him.

"This is none of your business, spiderman!" Your voice sounds robotic through the metal mask you're now wearing. The bright purple glow of your eyes stares angrily at Hobie.

You probably still think he doesn't know that you're under there, thinking your Hobie just so happens to stumble upon the fight.

Good on you for trying to hide your secret identity, it just so happens you hid his too. Hobie decides to play along for now. He'll ask you questions later.

Shit you curse, you never thought your boyfriend would show up while you're on your way to hq, coincidentally while you get ambushed by Roxxon. Just your luck.

While you're distracted, one of the men gets closer to you with a knuckle aimed at your face, you dodge at the last minute, the incoming punch hits your injured shoulder instead. You scream in pain, knees giving out, your heavy gauntlets weigh you down on the dirty concrete. You can feel the crude stitches opening up.

Hobie hears your screams, he sees your form crouched on the concrete, while one of the assailants aims his weapon at your head.

You're too far away from him, he's not gonna make it, his heart pounds loudly on his chest.

He has the brilliant idea to use his guitar. Hobie takes it from his back, quickly strumming its strings, a loud electric shockwave pulsates from the guitar, knocking back all the enemies except for you, as you brace yourself on the concrete.

Hobie races towards you, your ears ring from the loud sound, not hearing him call your name. All you feel is a presence coming towards you, fast.

Without missing a beat, you reprogram your gauntlets into a sword, the now sharp metal glinting in the moonlight.

You turn sharply towards the presence, you swing your sword, recognizing his suit you stop yourself from swinging, stopping just by his neck, you breathe out. Shit.

"Shit" you let go of your sword, it drops on the concrete in a metallic clang.

"Fuck" the whites of his mask widened.

You both hear a groan from behind you, turning around, one of the armoured men is starting to wake up.

Hobie needs to talk to you, preferably not here. Quickly grabbing your waist, careful not to touch your shoulder, he swings you both away from the alley.

"Let me go!" You scream out, still acting like you don't know him.

"We need to talk!" Hobie yells so you could hear him through your yelling and the loud wind.

"What?!"

Your questions get answered when you both end up on your flat's rooftop, you can see from your peripheral the flower you planted months ago.

"Oh, shit" you say meekly, adrenaline slowly fading away. The metal mask makes your voice sound robotic.

"Oh shit, that's right, love!" He takes off his mask, frustrated. "I thought someone was hurting you! And you're out here playing vigilante!"

Your eyes widen at his outburst "look who's talking!" You scoff, pointing at his suit.

He waits for his breathing to calm down, to think that if he wasn't following you tonight you would've– no he doesn't want to think about it.

Hobie looks at your face still covered in metal.

Hobie huffs, exasperated "why didn't you tell me?" He asks, hurt on his face.

"I didn't want you to worry" you're afraid to cross the small distance. "Roxxon needed to pay for what they did"

"You're part of the underground then?" He gestures towards your purple armor. Hobie remembers fighting some goons in the same armor as you, back when he didn't know what their mission was, thinking they're another gang wreaking havoc in the city. They called themselves the underground.

"I AM the underground" you proudly say.

Hobie's chest fills with pride, you're right Roxxon needed to pay, those innocent people didn't deserve what that evil corporation did to them.

Hobie exhales out his anger, finally crossing the distance between you, still unsure whether to touch you or not.

"You alright?" His hand hovers over your shoulder.

You take a step towards him, the tips of your shoes kissing his, non-verbally telling him it's okay to get close to you.

Hobie understands your signal "Let me see you, please" he cups your jaw, the harsh metal grazing his hand.

You push a small button on the side, finally showing your face.

"There you are," Hobie smiles softly. He rubs your cheeks fondly.

"I'm sorry, I'm okay, please don't-" you hesitate for a second "don't make me stop what I'm doing, someone has to do it"

"I know" Hobie embraces you, putting his head on the crook of your neck "trust me, I know"

You should've told him, no one else knows how heavy the burden of responsibility is except for Hobie. He would've helped you carry yours.

You hug him tightly, ignoring the searing pain in your shoulder, you cling to his vest, blinking away tears that tries to escape you

"I'm sorry"

You should've told him.
