1LEAVE MY BROTHER ALONE
"We're gonna lose him!" Mr. Incredible said as his family watched the Underminer's giant drill begin its move underground.
"Oh, all right." Elastigirl said in exasperation as she put Jack-Jack in his stroller and turned to Dash and Violet.
"One of you patrol the perimeter, keep the crowds back and safe. The other, watch after Jack-Jack!" Elastigirl said before she ran off.
"But I thought we were gonna go with…" Violet started.
"You heard your mother!" Mr. Incredible said as he started after her.
"I'm not just gonna sit here and wait for them to come back! I'll be the hero who stops the Underminer!" Dash said before he ran ahead of his father, and before anyone could stop him, had trampolined off his mom and onto the top of the drill.
"DASH!" everyone called as he tried to pry open the door the Underminer had on top of the drill. They could only look on helplessly as the drill went underground.
"What is that kid thinking?!" Elastigirl asked.
Underground, Dash hung onto the drill as he tried to pry open the door.
"Man, stupid thing!" Dash said as he was pelted with rocks before one ended up knocking him off and he fell into the dirt. He picked himself up as the Underminer stopped the drill in front of a wall of caverns and raised himself up.
"Consider yourselves UNDERMINED!" the Underminer laughed as he pressed a detonator, blasting the walls and causing explosions up on the surface that collapsed the ground beneath the banks of Municiberg. The Underminer then blasted the door of the vault once the banks had fallen through and started using a giant vacuum hose to suck up the money. Little did he know, Dash was behind him.
"Underminer, The Dash shall now bring about your downfall!" Dash said, spooking the Underminer and causing him to turn the vacuum around and accidentally suck him up, too.
"Oh, great! Now, he's on the agenda!" The Underminer said before he resumed vacuuming the money. Meanwhile, Dash was still trying to get out of the compartment that the money was going into, only to get blasted by more money as the Underminer ran back to the Tunneler and reactivated it. While this was happening, Dash started kicking the door to the hatch at super speed, slowly but surely knocking it loose. When he finally succeeded, he stumbled out, only to be ambushed from behind by the Underminer.
"Son of Incredible!" The Underminer said as he knocked Dash to the ground.
"Meet Jack Hammer!" The Underminer said as he started up his claw hand, which acted like a jackhammer. A short fight between the two of them followed, which ended with Dash landing a super speed combo on the Underminer that actually knocked him back a bit, causing him to hit the controls and actually breaking a few of them a bit, but as he slid down, he hit a lever that made the Tunneler move upward, making them both stumble before the Underminer grabbed hold of the hatch.
"Buh-bye!" the Underminer taunted as he jumped in and escaped in a smaller drill with the money. Dash started to go after him before he heard beeping behind him and he looked to a screen that read, "BREACH IN 12...11...10…"
Realizing the situation, Dash climbed up to the controls and pulled a lever, only for it to break off due to the damage from earlier.
"No! No, no, no, no, no, No, No, NO!" Dash said frantically.
Back on the surface, the street exploded in a shower of dust and rubble as the Tunneler emerged and started down the street. The rest of the Incredibles spotted the danger and rushed to it, with Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl making their way to the top while Violet stayed on the street to protect Jack-Jack.
Once Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl landed, Dash climbed out of the hatch behind them and said, "I can't steer this thing or stop it, AND the Underminer got away!"
His parents looked cross.
"We are going to have a talk later, young man." Elastigirl said before she shouted, "BOB, THE MONORAIL!"
The drill's side bumped into a monorail track, destroying it and sending the train heading down to the ground before it was caught by a trail of ice.
"Frozone! Yeah!" Mr. Incredible said as the Super guided the train to safety.
"We have to stop this thing before it gets to the overpass!" Elastigirl said.
"I'll try to keep it away from the buildings!" Mr. Incredible said before he jumped down, Dash following him.
"Dad! How can I help?!" Dash asked.
"Help protect any people you see in danger!" Mr. Incredible said as he tried to push the Tunneler away from nearby buildings while Dash rescued a nearby elderly lady from a car thrown by the Tunneler. However, his already rotten luck got worse as Violet made Jack-Jack his responsibility. He raced through the streets after the Tunneler, protecting citizens and Jack-Jack from harm. However, he eventually handed Jack-Jack to his dad before he raced ahead and climbed up the side.
"Maybe I can't find the Underminer, but I can still be the hero!" Dash said before he envisioned it. The drill was destroyed in the background, and he had people swarming all around him, interviewing him, telling him he was cool, and asking for pictures and autographs from The Dash. He quickly climbed up and into the hatch on top of the Tunneler. He looked around and saw a lot of complicated machinery. He started busting it up with his speed, only for it to make things worse by accidentally causing the drill to move faster, which forced the Incredibles to hurry double time as Elastigirl swung into the drill and spotted Dash running around in a panic. She grabbed him and put him on the staircase before she spotted the coolant tank and stretched herself around it as Mr. Incredible, Violet, and Jack-Jack came in.
"BOB! HELP ME WITH THE BOILER!" Elastigirl shouted as Mr. Incredible put himself between the wall and coolant tank and shoved his back into it enough to tip it over.
"That should do it." Elastigirl said before she noticed her children still inside.
"WHAT ARE YOU KIDS DOING?! GET OUTTA HERE! THIS THING'S GONNA BLOW!" Elastigirl shouted before Violet shoved Jack-Jack into her arms.
"There's no time!" Violet said before she put a forcefield around them as the engine exploded.
Outside, Frozone was trying to freeze the drill and managed to freeze it so that it only destroyed a tiny bit of City Hall. He soon made a break for it as the police arrived and the Incredibles climbed out of the drill.
"We did it!" Dash said triumphantly as he jumped down from the drill, only to hear guns clicking.
"FREEZE, SUPER!" the chief of police shouted as the cops readied their guns, but pointed them in the air as a sign of intimidation.
"Hey, what's the deal?" Dash asked.
"You're the one who set this drill loose! We have witnesses who said you went against your father's orders and ended up doing all this!" the chief said as they walked closer.
Dash wasn't just disappointed, but also scared. Suddenly, Violet dropped down in front of him and stood firm before she spread her arms out in a defensive manner.
"Sis, what are you-?" Dash asked before Violet put her hand over his mouth.
"Stand aside, young lady." the chief said.
"No. If you wanna arrest someone, you can arrest me, but I won't let you send away my brother. He's just a kid. He may have caused all this, but the important thing is he helped the innocents around here. Leave my brother alone." Violet said with a firm tone.
"Young lady, that boy's foolish actions have put us and the whole city in danger! He needs to be contained!" the chief said.
"You ungrateful idiots just don't appreciate anything we Supers do for you anymore, do you?! If it wasn't for us, this drill would've made City Hall into a pancake!" Violet yelled.
"This is your last chance. Either stand aside, or we use force." the chief said.
Elastigirl and Mr. Incredible spotted the whole thing and were furious. The police threatening their 10-year-old son?! No, sir, they would have none of that.
"I'm warning you, young lady!" the chief said, starting to get angry.
Violet stood her ground. She'd defend her little brother to the end. Suddenly, her parents came down as well.
"You cops should be ashamed of yourselves! They're just kids!" Elastigirl said.
"Listen, Supers, you may have stopped that drill, but we still need to take you downtown." the chief said.
Seeing that there was no other choice, especially because the guns were pointed at their kids, the Incredibles surrendered.
Later, they were bailed out by Rick Dicker, but, before they could leave, they were interrogated by detectives. Dash and Violet were being yelled at by a detective with blonde hair and a mustache and a dark-skinned detective.
"My brother DIDN'T start this fight!" Violet shouted.
"Well, he didn't finish it either!" the dark-skinned detective said.
"Did he stop the Underminer from inflicting more damage?" the blond-haired detective asked.
"No." said Violet.
"Did he stop him from robbing the banks?!" the detective asked.
"No!" Violet said.
"Did he CATCH HIM?!" the detective asked.
"NO!" Violet said through gritted teeth.
"The banks were insured. We have infrastructure in place to deal with these matters. If you had simply done NOTHING, everything would now be proceeding in an orderly fashion!" the dark-skinned detective said as he and the other one started to leave.
"You'd have preferred we do NOTHING?!" Violet asked, outraged.
"Without a doubt!" the blond-haired detective said. Violet glared at them from behind as she pounded the table. Dash had just kept his head down the whole time.
Later, after a strict talking to by his parents about how being a hero was not about fame and fortune and how important it was to follow exact orders from his father over dinner, Dash just sat on the bed in the motel room they were staying in, upset that his second day as a hero ended in disaster. He wanted to be a hero, but ended up being a kid in way over his head who just caused mass destruction. He looked over at Violet, who was sitting on the other bed. His parents had gone outside to discuss something important.
"Hey, Violet." Dash said.
Violet looked at him, "What?" she asked.
"That thing you did with the police today. Why did you do it?" Dash asked.
"Why else? I didn't want you to go to jail." Violet said.
"Violet, I'm not gonna lie, I thought honestly that you'd be happy if I went to jail. I could already picture you laughing at me and saying that I deserved it." Dash said, fixing to cry.
Violet gasped, "Dash! I wouldn't have done that, and I sure as heck wouldn't be happy about it either!" she said.
Dash looked at her before she sighed and said, "Look, Dash, you did deserve some sort of punishment for disobeying Dad and doing what you did, but you made a mistake in causing the Underminer to get away. Even Mr. Incredible makes mistakes sometimes. That's one of the reasons I defended you from the police, because you made a mistake and going to jail for it wasn't the right retribution. It's part of being a great big sister. I'm supposed to protect you and be there for you. In fact, if you had gone to jail and we would have to go visit you, my heart would just break at seeing you in that cell, all alone and sad. Frankly, I would've gone to jail for you, just so you wouldn't be in such a bad situation. For you and Jack-Jack, I'll take on any challenge and make any sacrifice." with a smile at the end before she winked and gave him a thumbs-up.
Dash's tears of sadness had become tears of joy as he climbed up on the bed and hugged Violet, "I love you, Violet. You're the best." he said.
Violet smiled as she hugged him back, "I love you, too, Dash. You're a really cool brother." she said.
Once they parted, Violet asked Dash, "You wanna watch a movie?"
"Yeah!" Dash said before he super-speeded into the bathroom to change into his pajamas before making popcorn. He then hopped on the bed beside Violet and they smiled at each other as Violet found Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution on Netflix and Chromecasted it to the TV.
THE END.
