We stood in the pouring rain, our heads bowed to the ground. Few people had appeared, but enough knew. I stood behind Tone, hearing her weeping below me. I stood under an umbrella that Nick had brought for us, Tone standing just under the cover. I placed a hand on her shoulder, attempting to comfort the young girl. As the proceedings ended, we walked to the hall, hoping for cover. The guards parted from their guard, letting us in the Grand Hall. I stood to the side, welcoming everyone inside, watching as the guards blocked the exit after our entrance. I heard a small voice behind the guard wall, weeping for help. I look to the crowd in the hall, rushing swiftly to the voice. As I began to make my way to the outdoors, guards attempted to stop me. I glared at them.

"Let me past." I growled, to the guards' dismay. They parted to let me pass, shutting the gap after me. I look down, faced with a young girl, donned in black. I kneel down to face her. "What's the matter?" I ask. She looks up to me, her tears subsiding.

"M-miss Page!" She stutters. "Just who I wanted to see." She suddenly growls menacingly. I stand straight, watching the girl pull a dagger from her left boot. I stagger backwards, letting her attempt her advance. She charges towards me, dagger pointed at my chest. I wait for her to get close enough, before kicking the knife to the side. The hall falls silent, as I yelp in pain. The dagger had cut my shin, blood now poring with blood. I shake it off, looking to the girl. The guards begin to surround us, some remaining in formation. I look around the area, noting the weak points of my allies for my security. I focus once again on the strange girl, watching as she brings a hand gun from her right boot. Bystanders gasp, the guards trying to push them back into the Grand Hall. I stand my ground, waiting for her first shot. She takes aim at my leg, as she shoots. I jump up, missing the bullet by millimetres. She swiftly shoots again, hitting me in the left shoulder. I shout out in pain, gasps of horror filling the air. She takes a third shot, hitting my right leg. I fall to the floor in an attempt to shield myself from further shots. I remember my back shield, quickly turning away from her to assist me. I hear another shot as I fake more pain.

"D-DETAIN HER!" I yelp, hoping to evade more insult to injury. The guards march past me, leaving me vulnerable as they remove the girls' weapon and march her to the cells through the Grand Hall. I feel breathing surrounding me, as dirt flies up infront of me.

"PAGE!" I hear Hunter yelp.

"Babe!" Nick yells, pulling me into his arms.

"Page, Hun, what happened?" Bobby asks me, cooing me like a child.

"Ugh, I'll be fine, just, help me up and over to the medical wing!" I grunt, trying to get up. Nick helps me up, picking me up bridal style and rushing to the medical ward. I lean in, preparing myself for the hectic day I now have.
