My Knight in Shining Armour
Chapter 9: The accident...
Alex lye on his bed, absentmindedly staring at the ceiling, a broad smile on his mouse muzzle. He had some down time from school, from teachers, from homework, from working in general and a few hours of free time before they ended and swerved right back into it. It was still pretty early and Alex had just woken up, so he was still wearing his boxers. He breathed in deeply, there it was, smelling the wonderful scent of his lover in his bed sheet. Alex was still surprised how long it lasted in his bed as he breathed in a couple more times and sighed happily. Almost everyday the mouse had thanked whatever had put him and David together. He was even starting to think his luck in life was getting better compared to how crappy his life used to be before.
He started to think of activities for the day. He was hypothetically free to do as he pleased. Alex was kind of a...well, boring fur. He liked doing things alone since that's how his life was before, his parents were mostly to busy and he didn't never been good at making friends. That changed since David came into the picture...well, it changed the alone part, not a lot of the boring part. He didn't care though, because David made him feel like someone and not just a little insignificant mouse that a rather small population cared about.
He tilted his head from side to side, trying to think of something to do. He knew that David was busy today; doing what Alex didn't know but that didn't matter. It took a while before he decided to have a morning run. With that though in mind he flopped off his bed and went on to find something appropriate for the activity, figuring he could showing afterwards. After he found a plain white tank top with a black shorts he slipped out his room and headed for the kitchen for an energy stop.
His mother was there, making breakfast as per usual, though his father was not.
Alex smiled and kissed his mother on the cheek "Hey mom, where's dad?"
His mother smiled "Morning Alex dear, your father feels a bit under the weather today"
Alex shrugged and sat at the table "Pity, what's for breakfast?"
"Guess"
Alex smirked and in a monotone mutters "Pancakes?"
His mother chuckled and turned around with a batch "There's some juice in the fridge if you want it" setting down some for her son and turned back to fiddle with something else in the kitchen.
Alex grinned and grabbed a class of apple juice while consuming pancakes. After he'd chewed know he muttered, "I'm going for a run, see you later mom"
He kissed her on the cheek and dashed out the door. His mother laughed to herself and washed the dishes "So wonderful to be young..."
Alex ran, and ran and ran. He was basically running around his whole neighbourhood. He smiled as he jogged on, listening to some lively music to help the flow along. He paced himself and, by the time he got back to his house, panted taking a little break by an almost stumped tree. He leaned against it lightly and drank from the water bottle he brought with. Putting it away and jumping up and down a few times he set off to do his second round around. All he was doing was moving, breathing and not thinking about anything in particular and focusing on keeping his legs in motion...
That was a big mistake...
Alex was just crossing over a road when it happened.
Out of nowhere some onyx black car came speeding down the road and apparently neither Alex nor the driver saw each other. With one large screeching sound and a shockwave of impact...Alex Trout was knocked and send flying, landing on some grass growing in that part of the neighbourhood.
Alex squirmed and fidgeted on the grass like a cockroach on its backside. The car was nowhere to be seen, but that could be because it really was not there or the mouse's vision was starting to fade. Slowly he stopped moving as he had enough logic to tell him that moving was not making it better at all. Silently he lay in the grass, its short blades pricking his back as while he bled. He did not shout nor scream for help, mostly because he had no breath left. Everything was getting darker, so very dark; it was not something most people liked. As he slowly slipped from conscious to unconscious, he heard a sound.
It was a girl's voice "OH MY GOSH, HOLD O!!!" was all he heard before his senses dulled, his bleeding continued and his brain switched off...
That's when it hit David. Literally hitting him with some form of invisible pain in his head.
David was sleeping, before his eyes snapped open "...Alex?"
He jumped out of bed and pricked his ears up, saying "ALEX!"
He rushed out of his room with that last word. His door slammed open and he sped outside. He then looked around franticly and after that pricked his eyes up once again and closed his eyes. He didn't move for a while before he opened them again, eyes turning from pink to blood red, and muttered "Black panther..."
The bat did not take his car; he was too much of in a panic mode to reason with himself properly. He dashed along the pavement, not showing any signs of slowing down any time soon. The odd thing was this, if you saw him or rather took a picture of him moving to examine it, it did not look like he was running. He was moving at an alarming speed that greatly surpassed running in any form. Another thing was he was not even touching the ground; he was hovering slightly above it as he glided on. The last thing that was weird was the visible silver shockwaves moving around him. It must have looked like something from Dragon ball Z.
He moved on and on and on, hoping to dear god that his feeling was completely at fault and everything was ok. Eventually he stopped, ending up at the hospital.
He rushed in, asking the vixen standing over the counter typing something on a computer "Is there a Alex Trout here?"
The Vixen looked up "Let me check" she typed some more before answering, "Yes, he got in about a half an hour ago"
David nodded "Thank you...can I see him?"
The vixen nodded "They should be done with him by now, so yes, he in room 20 on the fourth floor, is he a friend of yours?"
David nodded again "Yea, thank you again" and headed for the elevator. He pushed the button and waited, muttering, "Oh please let him be ok..." as he entered the elevator and pushed another button with the door closing slowly.
David held his chest tightly and leaned against moving walls. What if he wasn't going to be ok? What if his going to die? Dark thoughts enshrouded his mind and he felt like the world had stopped. He stepped out the elevator and tried his best to walk calmly until he reached the door labelled "20" on it. He breathed in, but as he reached for the knob, the door opened and a female badger stepped out. She looked about 18 and was wearing glasses with rather casual clothes. Her left arm hand a cast on it.
The badger blinked "Oh, do you know the guy in there?"
David nodded "Yes, he's my boyfriend...what happened to him?"
The badger grinned weakly "He got hit by a car, I saw and called 911"
David stood in silence, before hugging the girl "Thank you so much for doing that, I don't know what I'd do without him...is he going to be ok?"
The badger smiled weakly winced "The arm, your hurting the arm...The doctor guys said they don't know at this point, he's sleepin now, so I suggest if your going to see him, you be quiet about it"
David smirked and let go "Sorry...I will...thanks again for your help"
The badger smiled politly "No prob" and started walking away. Before she was out of sight she shouted "I'm Stefany by the way" and disappeared.
David sighed, took another deep breath and slowly opened the door. Alex was lying on a bed with all those medical machines surrounding him .The machines making that monotonous keeping sound for heart rate was the only sound in the room.
David stood still for a while, frozen on the spot. Then he slowly walked over and stared at his beloved.
David sighed, "I wish I could do something to help..."
Then he had a brainwave and then looked at Alex again "...Oh, this is going to hurt, but he's worth it"
He looked around to see if anyone was looking, which was rather stupid since they were in an enclosed room. Very slowly, David placed one paw on Alex's chest. His paw began to glow a faint black as his eyes turned red again. Suddenly David pulled his paw back and waved it like he was burnt "Yeow...what was..." he didn't finish his sentence.
He blinked a few times as Alex's body started to glow very brightly. The light seemed to be healing everything on Alex, until only the scar remained.
David blinked a few more times then gasped, "Oh my lord...he's got...his powers are..." Again he didn't get to finish his sentence as he hear stirring...
Alex slowly opened his eyes, lightly confused where his was. Then he saw David staring at him in a concerned matter.
David leaned over "Alex...are you ok?"
Alex blinked a few times and sat up "Uh...sure...what's going on?"
David tilted his head "Your in the hospital love, you got hit by a car..."
Alex blinked even more "I did?...cause I feel fine..."
David smiled and hugged the mouse "That's wonderful baby...don't ever do that to me again"
Alex hugged back "Do what?"
David smirked "Almost kill me by giving me a heart attack"
Alex shook his head "I would never do that..."
David blinked a tear away "...I love you so much Alex, I don't know what I'd do without you"
Alex smirked "Me to"
They stayed hugging like this for a long time, so long that both have them lost track of time. They just embraced each other with David overjoyed that his love was ok, but worried about how strong his mate's powers were growing, and even more about their alignment...
