"Hale.",I whispered, "What the hell do you think you're doing?" He chuckled and shook his head," Well, I though I would say hello since you looked so lonely. Isn't that right boys?" He looked over his shoulder. I did too and I saw a group of guys that I recognized but stayed away from.
"Boy's, why don't you show her who we saw dancing all alone and decided to keep company as well. The guys parted and I saw Rachell standing there crying. "Two things. One: What the hell did you do to her and Two: Either you remove yourself from me or I will do it for you." I growled.
"We didn't do anything to her. She just started crying. Also, I would like to see you try rookie. You've only been here for a few weeks. What makes you think you can overpower me?" He laughed. I raised my eyebrow and said, "This." I ducked underneath him while grabbing his arm and twisting it around his back. Then I kicked him behind the knees to make him kneel and bent down to whisper," Now what were you saying?"
His friends all looked at me with their jaws on the ground and I winked. They shut their mouths pretty quickly and backed off. I nodded. That's what I thought you weenies. Rachell just looked at me and started crying even harder. She became my main concern so I quickly knocked Hale out and ran over to her.
"Rach what's wrong?" I held her to me as she shook. "Th-th-the guy al-almost raped m-m-me!" She started bawling and I held her even tighter to me. How the hell did a guy manage to get hold of her? Even while she is drunk she knows how to protect herself! "There was a group of guys.", she explained further," They cornered me and one of the guys stepped forward and tried to touch me so I kicked him in the nuts but then the guys held me down and one of them got ontop of me! The only thing that stopped them was when the barman threatened to call the police if they didn't leave me alone!"
"Oh my god are you sure you're okay?" She started crying even harder and I tried to soothe her," Shhhh shhhh its ok. I promise. Its ok. Shhhh." If I ever find the people who did this they were dead. Nobody messes with my friends and gets away with it. I drove us home and made sure she was okay before letting her go to bed. I couldn't sleep knowing that those people were still out there alive. Also I was worried Hale would sneak into my room and do something to me.
Over the past few weeks, the katana is now my weapon of choice. Its smooth and graceful, just like an assassin should be. Not like guns which are noisy,but quick and quiet. I decided to sharpen it before going to bed so I could put my mind at ease. What did Hale want with me and Rach? What would he have done if I hadn't gotten him off of me? How come he started talking to me when he's done nothing but give me the cold shoulder? All these questions ran through my mind and I felt as if my head was going to explode.
Shower time! I need to relax or else I'll never be able to sleep. As I stepped into the blissfully hot water, I tried to forget about everything that happened tonight. I lathered my hair with my orange blossom and lilly shampoo and conditioner and then proceeded to wash up with lilac body wash. I smell good! That is the first thing I thought when I stepped out of the shower. I stepped into my long T-shirt and crawled into bed. Ahhh nice and cozy! I closed my eyes and after a while I fell off into lala land.
