Advertisement
NO POV
The time for action was now. Everyone was preparing their plan to hijack and Atlas ship to get to Atlas. While the others were discussing the details Pyrrha was having a dilemma. She wanted to go with her friends and help them but that meant leaving Jr. Sure she could leave him with her mom but what if something were to happen to Pyrrha, then Jr would be all alone.
???: Mommy.
Pyrrha turned around and saw Jr, who was looking at her with worry. He walked over and hugged her legs.
Jr: Are you ok?
Pyrrha knelt down and picked him up. She then sat down with him on the bed.
Pyrrha: Don't worry honey, I'm just thinking about something.
Jr: Does it have to do with everyone leaving soon?
Pyrrha: Well...yes.
Jr: Dont be sad mommy, they'll be back someday.
Pyrrha: It's not that, I'm thinking about going with them.
Jr: What do you mean?
Pyrrha: They are going to be doing something dangerous and they'll need help along the way.
Jr: What's wrong with helping?
Pyrrha: It's not that, I'm just nervous about leaving you. I dont know what I'd do if something happened to you while I was gone or if something happened to me. I dont want to take that risk.
Jr then proceeded to wrap his arms around her torso in a hug.
Jr: Dont worry mommy, I'm tough I can handle myself.
Pyrrha chuckled.
Pyrrha: That you are honey.
The time had come for those who were leaving to depart. At the current moment Pyrrha wasn't with them, she was at Saphron's home. Thankfully she was able to look after her son on such a short notice.
Pyrrha: That should be everything, are you sure this is ok?

Saphron: Dont worry about it, I'm glad to look after him while you guys are away. By the way, when do you think you'll be back?
Pyrrha: No idea, I'll try to call when I can.
Saphron: You got it.
Pyrrha knelt down and gave Jr one last hug.
Jr: You'll be okay right?
Pyrrha: I'll be alright, your mother is a huntress after all.
After a few more exchange of words it was time for the two to depart. In all of Jr's life Pyrrha has never gone more than a day without him. This would be their first time leaving each other. Luckily, both were tough.
The day was peaceful in Argus as people filled the streets. Jr stayed at his aunts house for the time being. Nothing exciting was happening as Saphron was in the kitchen and Jr was playing with Adrien. Suddenly the ground started to shake as a loud noise could be heard. Saphron and Jr both scrambled to the window to see what was going on. Emerging from the edge of the city was a giant robot.
???: Clearly the people have forgotten they live in piece thanks to the awesome might of Atlas. Consider this a reminder.
It raised up one of his arms and fired a large ball of lightning. It then began to walk off in the direction where the others were.
Saphron: Dear god, are they really going to use that on people for just hijacking a ship? I hope they'll be alright.
Saphron turned around and saw the door was wide open, not only that but Jr was gone. Saphron quickly ran outside in search for the young boy.
Jr ran through the streets to try and get to the woods. He wasn't just going to sit there while this giant robot was after them, especially with his mother involved. Despite the fact that he had no fighting skills, he still wanted to try and get to them.

After a few more minutes of mad dashing he finally made it into the woods. This time he heard a loud piercing roar. Not only that but the sound of wings flapping. He looked above him and saw dozens of manticores and griffons over the city.
Jr: What the heck is going on?
despite all the various signs of danger and chaos he still ran through the woods. Through his journey he could hear the sounds of the military fending off the grimm. Finally he arrived at the edge of a cliff. He could see briefly a bullhead disappearing into the distance. He knew that was the one carrying the gang to Atlas. He smiled.
Jr: Go get them mom.
???: My, a child suck as yourself shouldn't be this far away from home.
Before Jr even had a chance to see who it was, he felt them strike his neck. Then everything went black after that.
???: Never would I have believed that idiot would manage to get with someone.
