Rated: PG
Category: Double Drabble (200 words), Gen, Captain Hammer Backstory, Pre-Movie.
Spoilers: DHSAB General Knowledge.
Summary: Young Captain Hammer Saves The Day - But Was It Worth It?
Disclaimer: Captain Hammer belongs to Mutant Enemy and Nathan Fillion, not me.
Note: I realize our Captain was quite likely always special, but this fic supposes he either got his full powers at adolescence or kept them hidden until the day when he couldn’t any more.

The first time I kissed Lisa Cooper, we were backstage.
Guess it's only fitting that she just ended things backstage.
I understand why she did it.
I mean, things are so different now.
This thing with me is so huge. It changes everything. I don’t blame her for dumping me.
Not really.
Still, though, things were just starting to go somewhere, and…
Damn.
I know there’s a hundred other girls in school who’d take her place now, but that’s not about me.
They just want to be with the hero.
I wish I’d never stopped that car.
I really do.
That boy didn’t deserve to die, and it was easy enough to prevent, but…
Damn.
My father’s waiting for me to join him on stage. He smiles, but as Lisa waves a sad goodbye I know things will never be the same.
After all, it’s not just Dad who’s waiting.
Seems someone’s called a press conference. They want to talk about the almost accident.
My father’s eyes narrow and he leaves the stage for a moment. He’s next to me before I realize it. He nudges me, hard. I know what he wants.
Time to smile for the cameras.
Damn.
