18 Part 2 Donnie x Child Reader

Reader's POV

I grabbed the pencil once more as my pencil connected to the paper, in which smudged the lead onto the blank white paper.

"-Let her do this, to protect her home...Her family." I heard my Aunt's voice at the other end of the door. 

I sighed before I dragged my headphones onto my ears, the sound of music filling my world. I started to sketch a turtle, and then morphed it into more of a human nature like my father and uncles. 

If I were a turtle, would things be more different? I thought to myself. 

I shook my head, I can't think like that!

I crumpled up that paper and put it into the recycling bin under my desk. I groaned in annoyance as I tried to think of something to draw, before I thought I should draw my feelings down on paper.

My mind was going blank with everything so I just sat on my bed, and listened to the music.

I've done my training for the day, I've done the dishes, and then... Sat in my room, listened to their conversation.

I can stretch.. But what good is that going to do?...

I'm not allowed to go and help save the world.

Even if they wont allow me to, I'm gonna sneak out anyways. They can't keep me safe all my life, I have to do everything I can anyways.

Just as I sat up I saw dad walk in, I felt the sudden dread consume any confidence I once had as I saw an unreadable look on dad's face.

I took off my headphones as I paused my music. Dad sat next to me on my bed, there was nothing but silence for a few moments.

Then Dad sighed as I could tell he was thinking of what he was going to say.

I hung my head down low, I was ready to be told I wasn't going for obvious reasons.  

"I'm sorry, for not telling you about the past I had, or what we all are up against." He started, I looked up at him thru my hair.

"I'm always nervous of losing you due to Shredder or other people even. Which I know is a normal thing, but I just feel like... You're growing up too fast. And you are of course, sometimes I forget that pretty much human children... Are not as skilled and talented as you are at this age." He said.

"Heck, you can defend yourself against each of us. I forget that you're not gonna be our little girl forever. Eventually you are going to have to look after yourself and danger is gonna come your way, if I can protect you or not. So, from now on... If I'm getting a little too.. Protective and... All that dad stuff, just let me know... And I'll try to back off a little." He laughed and smiled nervously.

I crawled closer to dad, and hugged him. "You're just being a dad, I can't blame you for any of that. I understand, that this is the possible end of the world. But I don't want to be alone, thru all of it. That's also another reason I wanted to go, because I just want to be with you all in case there is an end soon. But I know I can help in some ways, we just have to think of them." I said. 

I smiled as I felt Dad hug me back. "I'm sure we will think of something." He said.

Five days later...

There is a week and two days left, until the possible alien invasion to take place.

The news report was now moved to a new location, the military and FBI actually helped set up a base a couple hours away from the city, where they had live broadcast for any new news on the situation.
