The Mentally Brave

Chapter 12

My eyes are shut closed waiting for pain, or no feeling at all once the bullet hits my head. I don't really care anymore, my face, arms and legs hurting.

"I wouldn't do that If I was you" I hear a husky voice snarl our way.

The gun fires but not at me. Pure fear washes over me. I push suited man off me, remembering to finally use my gift, feeling his weight lift off me. I sat up ears ringing from the shooting, looking for my savior making sure he wasn't hurt.

"How did you do that? You're one of them!" Suit says in shock. I don't have time to answer.

Harry jumps, pinning the suited man to the floor punching at his face. The gun is thrown to the side. I make it come to me and hold it in my hand, feeling its weight between my fingers.

I try holding it up but I am dizzy.

"Take out the bullets" Harry yells at me. That turn of his head cost him a punch to the face, knocking him to the side. The suit gets up, trying to decide who to go after, me or Harry. He decides to turn to me, since I am the one holding the gun in her hand.

"Give it to me girl" He demands "You don't want to shoot me"

"I-I do- stay away" I am pointing the gun at him.

"Don't do anything stupid" He warns holding up his hands.

I see Harry get up to his feet slowly. The minute I take my eyes off of suits he launches himself at me dropping me to the ground the sending the gun flying to the other side.

The man holds up a fist ready to punch me once more. Harry comes behind him, hitting him on the head with the pole knocking him unconscious.

"Lizzie" He is by my side holding my head up to his lap "You ok? How bad did he hurt you?"

I try to focus on Harry's green eyes but they are going in and out of range.

"I got to Luke, he's ok" I whisper, my body in pain.

"I know baby, hold on" Harry lifts me in his arms resting my head on his shoulder as he walks out of the ally way. Around the corner Ed is waiting in the car with the others.

Perrie gets out to open the door so Harry can seat me down inside.

"Take her to the safe house- I'll meet you there, and don't let Lizzie fall asleep" He orders closing the door. Once Perrie is back inside the car Ed drives off. I am sitting in the back next to Luke who is looking at me.

'This is all my fault'

"No it's not Luke" I answer his thought in a faint whisper.

"Who was that curly bloke?" Luke inquires Perrie

"That was Harry, you'll get to know him soon enough" She answers

We drive in silent, my face too bruised for me to move my lips anyway. Every now and then Luke nudges me so I won't doze off.

When we get to the so called safe house, Harry is already there leaning on his bike waiting.

When Ed stops the car Harry opens the door to get me out.

"How was he able to get so close to you?" Ed questions when he sees my beat up face.

"She isn't used to fight, or use her gift in I fight" Harry replies coldly obviously still fuming about them taking me with.

Harry carries me up the stairs. I unlock and open the door for him. "Thanks" He mumbles.

"D-Did she just do that herself?" Luke points at Harry's back eyes wide at Ed
