Avengers Family

Ch. 22 "Guilt"

Hayden POV

Beep, Beep, Beep,

The steady rhyme of an all to familiar beat of my heart,

my heavy eyelids slowly flutter open,

I look up at the ceiling,

I look down seeing that where I got stabbed by the crocodile had been patched up,

I slowly look over to see Dad laying his head on the side of the bed,

I had a oxygen tube under my nose, a IV in the top of my hand,

I looked at dad again,

"Dad.." I said in a weak and raspy voice,

He sat up instantly, he must have not even been sleeping,

"Hayden, oh thank god, Thought we lost you there kiddo," He said

"What happened?" I said weakly,

"We got there just before he was about to finish you off," He said

"And Pietro?..." I asked weakly already knowing the answer

"I'm sorry sweetheart.. he didn't make it.." He said as he hand his hand on the top of my head,

I felt my lip quiver, I felt like my heart broke into a million pieces,

"I'm so sorry chipmunk.." He said

I laid my head back tying to rack my head around this,

"The creature?" I asked

"He's gone for good this time, No one is bringing him back this time," Dad said

"He said he made sure they wouldn't make that mistake again, did he?" I asked

Dad nodded,

"He killed everyone in the facility," Dad said

I nodded,

"There is something else you should know," Dad said

I arched my brow,

"Your real dad, he was there and he killed him," Dad said

"Really?" I asked

He nodded

"Figures he would be involved," I said crossing my arms,

"Lets not talk about this right now," He said placing his hand on top of mine and lightly squeezed

"You need to focus on getting better and getting through this," Dad said

"Dad, I'm..-" I began but before I could finish he cut me off,

"Don't even say your fine, you just lost someone you care deeply about, I can't even imagine what you are feeling," He said

I nodded closing my eyes, remembering his last words,

'I love you...' His words echoed in my mind,

"Umm, can you get me something to drink my throat is kind of dry," I asked

"Of course," He said getting up,

"I won't be long," He said

I nodded

I sat there and pondered,

After I am healed and everything is said and done, I'm out of here, this has shattered me, Pietro was everything to me and now he's gone....and it's because of me, I thought

"Yes it is." I hear

I look u and see Wanda,

"Wanda I-" I began

"Save it, my brother is gone because you went after that thing," She said harshly

"I didn't-" I began

"He is gone Hayden and there is nothing you can do to bring him back, my only family gone because of you," She said glaring at me

I looked down, knowing she was right,

I looked back up and she was gone,

When this is over I am leaving and never coming back,

"Okay, I got water and soda, wasn't sure what you wanted," Dad said

"Thank you," I said

There is nothing left for me here, and I'm the reason why,and that is going to haunt me until I die, I thought as I looked into dad's eyes,

I don't belong here anymore, I got someone I loved dearly killed, and I am going to keep my promise I am no longer going to blame myself,

I am going to do what I always done when something goes wrong run and use my anger,I can't stay here anymore,

(End Of Book Two!!"

Don't worry I will be in the process of making book three!!

Book three is "avengers my demons"
