Thanks again to @laquilasse for being amazing and always talking to me about this AU and providing the perfect art for it.
First Chapter | Previous Chapter | AO3
Damian couldn’t breathe. His body felt frozen, his back burned with pain, and his chest was bruised from where the frost dragon had shoved it into stone. Everything ached from the fall to the ground, but what hurt most were Richard’s screams in his ears.
The guttural, heart wrenching, wail echoed in his head and bounced against the pain telling Damian he deserved it and more for letting Freeze take his brother. For failing. For being the weak link that kept Richard from running and forced him to stay and be captured.
There were voices shouting around him, and Damian didn’t want to get up, he wanted to curl in on himself and shut everything out until Richard’s voice stopped filling his head. He wanted to jump up and chase after them, to save his brother, to fix this terrible mistake.
Hands found him, turned him over off his back, and cradled his head. Damian blinked up at his father, face unreadable between the worry, fear, and fury. He was saying something but Damian couldn’t hear, his head awash again with Richard’s scream.
He shook his head, pulling from the hands, “He’s gone.” he choked, “He’s gone. Freeze took him, I could not stop him.”
