Run! - Hold On! Season 3
Page 28
“They were picking on Heather, Ms. Reese, but B.J. stopped them.”
Oh, my God, no. “W-where is he?”
The little girl pointed to the entrance gate with an excited look on her face. “B.J.’s the coolest.”
Belinda looked across in the direction the little girl had indicated and saw her son walking hand-in-hand with Heather toward the main gate.
She was instantly reminded of the fateful night eleven years earlier, when his father had rescued her from the roof of a burning skyscraper. Tears rolled down her cheeks as her fear that he may have some of The Scorpion in him instantly vanished. Her son wasn’t The Scorpion at all. He was a rescuer.
Her enduring question returned. Who would his father have been had he not been abused as a child, and hadn’t been brainwashed with a series of false memories? She’d never known who was at his natural core. Nobody had. Perhaps Brandon, Jr. was the answer.
She wanted B.J. to have his own identity, but she couldn’t forget Brandon’s words to her, moments before he threw himself off the mountaintop: I’m not gonna die. It was the reason she’d named her son after him.
But who was her son? Who would he become? So far, he seemed to have much in common with The Interceptor, but he was only eight. His persona would take time to develop.
She knew the answer wouldn’t be revealed today. But maybe, just maybe . . . tomorrow.
