Chapter 6: Tracy
"No! you got to be kidding me!" I shout at Riley "No! that just can't be true!". I grab both of Riley's shoulders "What, where and when?"
Riley shifts trying to let me losen up my grib, so I do. Riley always stays calm, just as now: "At the second hall of your right when you're standing in front of the cafetaria, it happend just a few seconds ago. I came to look for you as I sa-"
I don't listen to the rest what she has to say and run my way towards the direction she pointed out. I almost slip because the floor is wet and stumble around the corner.
My hands shoot up over my mouth. My eyes widen at the sight I see, a scream leaving my mouth. This can't be true!
I run as fast as I can to Xandra. Xandra is laying against the wall, her head tilt to the side. Her eye is red and blood is dripping out of her nose.
"No! Xandra! Stay awake stay!" I scream, but Xandra's eyes stay shut and there comes no response. I grab her shoulders en shake her. No response...
I start panicking and Riley tries to calm me down by patting my back. "Why isn't she responding?!". Riley grabs Xandra's wrist and try to find feel her pulse.
"She is still breathing and her heart is still working, she probably just went unconscious" Riley says as the calm person she is, but I can see at her shaking hands that she isn't as calm as she looks.
I clench my hands into each other and try to stand still. "I have to find those jerks! They can hide, but I will find them. I'm gonna.." I mutter but I'm interupted by two hands on my shoulders.
I look over at Riley but she is still standing at the same spot she stood a minute ago, arms crossed and a mischievous smirk on her face.
I want to turn around but those hands hold me in place: "What the.." " What did you want to do, on your own, to those jerks?" a low manly voice says.
"I. I was uh.." for some reason those confident words fled away and are replaced by some stuttery words only. I look at those hands on my shoulders and in the progress those hands turn me around and I'm now faced with... him!
My eyes widen:"You!?" He grins :" Yes me, did you expect someone else?" I shake my head. "Hey, you can't do anything about it, you got that?" He says in a stern way.
I want to cut him of but the words don't come out of my mouth.. "They are too strong for you, even for the four of you together. I'm sorry to say it, but even my group didn't make it to beat them." his face goes from hard to soft "I don't want you or some of your friends become even more hurt than she now is" he points at Xandra.
My jaw drops, I can't even bring out a stupid sentence like: 'I don't have to listen to you', I just stand there, frozen. Even his group, with all those cool and strong men couldn't beat them?! They are eith waaayy more!
But how do we survive this then? Look at Xandra! she. Is. Unconscious! My hope flies away... The man (whose name I still don't know) sees it and says: "Hey, calm down. My men and I will always protect you girls"
Wait... he wants to protect us? He just came out of hospital! so I say :" You are crazy! You just came out of hospital and a cellpunishment! And now you say you still want to protect us?" My jaw is still dropped, he moves towards me, his hand touching my chin. I close my mouth.
"I always will protect you, beautiful" he says and walks away... I stare after him.
