THE IMMORTAL'S FRIEND

Chapter 22: Blue Moon

Third Person's POV

The inevitable time flies swiftly and the lonely forest got covered with the darkness of the night sky.

Galen felt a cold bucket of water dropping from his head down to his body. He opened his eyes slowly and found out that his feet were tied with a rope while his hands were handcuffed like he got arrested as a criminal.

The first question that came into his mind when he regained consciousness is where Iris is.

He's so worried about his friend that he can't give any single care about the four big men standing in front of him.

The four are wearing black mask so he could only see their round and big eyes.

"Where is Iris?" he asked the man standing in front of him. The man's eyes got darker when he heard his question and he knew well that he angered him.

He was about to ask the same question again but when his eyes fall to the girl lying down on the floor unconscious, he stop. He can't be wrong. That girl is Miracle.

Galen move to crawl towards her but the man kicked him on the face, warning him to stop moving. It was followed by a harsh hit of a hard metal on each side of his stomach.

He groaned in pain as the man didn't stop kicking his face and hitting his slim body.

Few minutes had passed and the three men also joined the man in beating him. They all hit him like it's the most interesting thing to do.

He can feel his ribs breaking. His arms and legs getting numb. He is covered by his own blood but he didn't move to fight the four men back.

He doesn't have the energy to do so. He just let them hit him several times just like how he let the bullies hit him before. It's fine and okay with him to receive their kicks and punches as long as they won't hurt Iris.

"Hey loser, why aren't you fighting back? You're a vampire right? I heard the girl say that during your conversation with her earlier. Is it true that you don't drink human blood? How lame, I never thought that there would be such a stupid vampire like you." he said.

Galen didn't listen to the man. He's busy looking at Iris to even pay attention to him.

The man got mad after not getting the attention he wanted so he held his jaw to make him face him. The man slapped his face twice before punching him hard. Galen spit blood.

"You're such a fucking lame and weak vampire. If you can't fight for yourself, do you think you can protect that girl in front of you?" The man asked as he pointed Iris using his fore finger.

He punched Galen hard on the face once again, making the back of Galen's head hit the wall. It made him feel dizzy and right now, he could barely open his eyes.

The masked man stood up and walked towards Miracle. He made sure that Galen was looking before he kicked the girl on the stomach twice.

Galen's fist clenched tightly.

"S-Stop please..." he said. It's hard to speak, but he still manages to say it.

"D-Don't hurt her..." he added.

The man didn't listen to him and kicked the girl once more. The three men laugh like there's an interesting show happening in front of them. What's fun in hurting an innocent girl that didn't even do wrong to them?

The masked man pulled the girl's hair and hit her face on the floor twice. Iris' nose bleed so his eyes widened in surprise.

Galen felt nervous because no matter what the man did to the girl, it didn't wake her up. Iris still remains unconscious like they made her drink something to fall into a deep sleep.
