Russel's POV

Murdoc pulled a hooker off the side of the street once again and took her to Kong to smash her. I can't stand it when he does that. So disrespectful to the rest of us. Especially Noodle. She's 11 and shouldn't be hearing or seeing people doing that kind of stuff.

Music blasted in my ears as I walked down the street with my head down and hands in my hoodie pockets. Walking got my mind off of the stress and noisiness of Kong. The chilly air swatted against my face as I walked further downtown and through random alleyways.

"SOMEONE HELP ME!", in between songs I heard a girl screaming not that far away. I yanked my earbuds out of my ears and tried to find the source of the screaming. "HELP ME!", She screamed once again and I ran towards the voice. Finally I turned into an alleyway and saw a girl pinned under a man who looked to be in his late forties. He was trying to take her pants off with one hand and was covering her mouth with the other.

"Get the fuck off of her!", I yelled and ran towards the man pushing him off the poor girl. I walked towards the now startled man, making him scared enough to scramble to his feet and run away. As soon as he was gone I turned towards the young girl. She pulled up her pants that were down to her knees by then and wiped the tears from her eyes. She pulled her knees to her chest and looked at me quickly then back down to the pavement.

"T-thank you.", She spoke quietly still curled up in her little ball. I walked back towards her and sat down in front of her. She glanced up for just a second but quickly looked back down again.

"It's no problem.", I spoke to her. She had (short/long) (color) hair and (pigment) skin. She looked to be about 19 or 20 but I wasn't sure. "My name's Russel. What's yours?", I asked her. Her (e/c) eyes looked up to me and stayed locked with my dark ones.

"(Y-y/n)", she told me.

"That's a pretty name.", I smiled at her and she gave a little half smile back. "So what are you doing out here so late?", I questioned. It was currently 11:45 PM. She frowned once again and looked back down.

"I'm uh... homeless. Got kicked out of my parents house recently.", She answered me. I frowned. A poor young girl shouldn't be out here on her own. I mean she almost got raped. Who knows what else could happen to her?

"You don't have a car? A friend's house to stay at?", I asked not knowing how she didn't have anything. She shook her head and put it down to her knees as if embarrassed. I felt bad. "Hey uhhh maybe you could come stay at my place?", I realized how creepy that sounded after she looked up like I was crazy.

"Uhh I-I don't kno-"

"I live with three other people. I'm part of a band and we live just up the street. You don't have to stay for a long time. I don't know maybe just a couple of nights.", I felt stupid for rambling on but I didn't want her staying out here in the cold with gross guys all around. I mean Murdoc was gross too but I would make sure he didn't lay a finger on her.

"Umm uh could I meet them first?", She asked.

"For sure.", I smiled at her then stood up. I held out my hand for her. She grabbed it and stood up with my help. We walked with a comfortable silence between us for about 15 minutes until we got to Kong.

Your POV

Walking with the giant man named Russel made me extremely nervous but he helped me. He prevented me from getting raped so I owe him. It made me feel better that there would be other people in the house but I was still on edge. Finally after climbing up a giant hill we made it to the place he called his home. It was giant and had gates in the front that had KONG spelled out across the front. The flips that my stomach was doing turned into wasp stings. My breathing picked up and I grabbed onto Russel's sleeve before he opened the gate.

"I-I can't.", I pushed out as my heart raced. Russel looked at me with sympathy.

"I promise you that everything is going to be okay. You can stay right by my side the whole time.", He tried to comfort me but as he saw that it wasn't helping he switched tactics. "Okay uh take deep breaths.", He instructed me then started to mumble to himself. "What did 2D tell me helped him when he was panicking?", he asked himself under his breath. "(Y/N) everything is going to be okay. Look at me.", he grabbed my chin and looked into my eyes. "I will protect you."

When he said that I nodded and tried to control my breathing. I didn't want to let him down. After about five minutes I was finally calmed down and we continued to the front doors.

"Alright are you ready?", He asked me when he was about to turn the door handle. I took a deep breath and nodded. He opened the door and I was greeted with a pungent stench. Trash was thrown everywhere. Broken glass and shoes sat in every corner. Food was left out to spoil. "So this is the living room.", Russel noticed my fingers pinching my nose and chuckled. "You get used to it.", He smiled and then moved onto the next room.

After walking through all of the downstairs rooms we moved onto the bedrooms to actually meet everyone. Russel knocked on a door with a sign that said 'Murdoc's Chamber'. Inside it sounded like someone rolling out of bed and pulling on clothes. Finally a man with green tinted skin and a beer bottle in one of his hands opened the door. He was only wearing a pair of speedo type underwear. His hairy chest repulsed me.

"Ooh who've you got here?", A low growling voice came out of his mouth. The man tried to grab my hips with his hands but Russel stopped him fortunately.

"You keep your filthy hands off of her you sick bastard.", Russel stepped in between Murdoc and myself and pushed the green man backwards.

"Alrigh' alrigh' mate you have all da fun you want wif he. You picked up a goo' one", Murdoc smirked, unfazed by Russel's harshness. A shiver went up my spine as he talked about me in such a way.

"It's nothing like that. She's just here to stay a couple of nights. I found her being harassed by a man like you.", Russel stepped out of the room and slammed the door shut behind him. My eyes were watering from remembering what almost happened not even an hour ago. Russel gave me a friendly hug as he saw tears threatening to fall. "That was Murdoc. You stay as far away from him as possible when he's drunk.", I nodded into his chest and pulled away, ready to meet who else was in the house, hoping that they weren't as bad as what I just experienced. We continued onto a door plastered with 'Keep out' stickers and a sign that said 'Noodles room' along with lots of Japanese. Russel knocked gently on the door. "Noodle!"

"Coming coming!", A small girls voice came from the inside. A tiny Asian girl opened the door in a pair of light blue pajamas. "Herro Russel. Who is dis?", She asked in a cute Japanese accent, pointing to me.

"This is (Y/N). She's here to stay for a couple of nights.", Russel answered her. He seemed so happy to see Noodle and that made me smile. Noodle smiled at me.

"My name is Noodle.", She told me.

"I-it's nice to meet you Noodle.", I smiled at the girl.

"You are very pretty. Are you and Russel dating?", she asked. Both Russel and I widened our eyes and shook our heads.

"No no no Noodle. I just wanted to help her out. She's like you. Like a sister.", Russel tried to explain it to Noodle. I nodded, agreeing with Russel.

"Ah okay. Well have a good night!", She smiled one last time and shut the door. Russel awkwardly led me to a blank white door and knocked.

"D wake up!", Russel yelled at the door. I heard something fall over and an 'oomph' from someone inside. After another thirty seconds the door opened to reveal a tall boy with bright blue hair and pitch black eyes looking at Russel. He noticed me and awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

"oo's dis?", A thick cockney accent came out of his mouth.

"This is (Y/N). She's here to stay a couple nights. (Y/N) this is 2-D.", Russel introduced us. Something about the tall lanky boy intrigued me even with his creepy black eyes.

"Oh uh 'i (Y/N). You 'an call me Stu if ya wan'.", He spoke out awkwardly. I felt my cheeks flush as he looked at me.

"N-nice to meet you Stu.", I said. Russel walked away from 2-D's room and I followed.

"Okay so I'll show you my room and then get you set up in Noodle's so you feel comfortable.", He told me. I nodded and soon enough I was fast asleep in Noodles room. Happy that I had somewhere warm to stay tonight.
