It could be a group of out - of - town bounty hunters. They might have heard about Nicole's reputation as a tough cop and see her as a valuable target to bring in for some kind of reward. Maybe they are working for a shadowy figure who wants Nicole out of the way so they can take over the town's law enforcement.
Perhaps it's a deranged ex - lover of Nicole's from her days before she met Waverly. Jealous and filled with rage, this person decides to attack Nicole in a fit of madness. They know all of Nicole's weaknesses and use that knowledge to plan a devious attack.
The attackers could be a cult that has a vendetta against Nicole for interfering in their rituals in the past. They believe that by attacking her, they can regain their power and influence in the area. They might use dark magic or brute force to try and take Nicole down.
One possible plot could be that Nicole is attacked while on a solo mission to gather information for the resistance. She manages to fight back briefly but is overpowered. Then Waverly races to her rescue, using her own skills and the power of their love to overcome the attackers.
It could be an old enemy of Nicole's from her police work. Maybe someone she put in jail before who has a vendetta against her. This person might have been released recently and is out for revenge.
Nicole's family members could also be involved. Maybe her sister or mother sees the hickey and has a strong reaction. They might be shocked, concerned, or even happy depending on their view of Nicole's relationship. And this could lead to some interesting family - relationship - based plot developments in the fanfiction.
It could be Death Eaters who see Hermione as a threat to their new plans. Since she's very intelligent and has been involved in many battles against the dark side, they might target her to send a message to the Order of the Phoenix.
Well, it could be about Nicole getting a hickey and then trying to hide it from others in their small town where everyone knows everyone. Maybe she's worried about what her family or friends will think, especially if she's not ready to fully disclose her relationship yet.
It could be rogue ninjas from other villages. These ninjas might be jealous of Naruto's power or they could be on a mission to steal some of his unique abilities. For instance, some might want to take the Nine - Tails' chakra from him.
Another plot could involve Nicole getting handcuffed during a dangerous mission. She has to rely on her wits and the help of her friends, especially Waverly, to get out of the situation and complete the mission successfully.
Well, in a fanfiction plot, Nicole could be hurt while trying to protect her partner. For example, if there's a bomb threat in a building where they are. Nicole would shield her partner from the blast, resulting in her getting seriously hurt with burns and fractures. Or perhaps she gets into a car accident while rushing to a crime scene because of a mechanical failure in her vehicle.
First, establish the context. Decide if it's for a comical, romantic, or action - filled scenario. For example, if it's romantic, you could write about how the handcuffs add an element of vulnerability and trust between Wayhaught.
After Nicole gets hurt, her partner could be filled with guilt and determination. The partner might focus all their energy on finding out who was responsible for Nicole's injury. For example, if it was a criminal act, they would dig deeper into the case, leading to new revelations and a more intense plot. Meanwhile, Nicole would be in the hospital recovering, and there could be emotional scenes between her and her partner as they deal with the situation.
