Behind The Unseen Stars

Chapter Thirteen Unseen Spell

I jumped back as Luca came charging towards me. He was getting closer every time and I was getting tired but I knew that he wouldn't stop until one of us went down and I didn't want it to be me. I wouldn't let it be me.

He had already almost gotten me two different times and he was only getting closer. If I wanted to get out of this then I would need to think fast.

I looked behind me to see he had me backed into a tree and there was no way out, he was too fast, he would catch me. If I tried to run again. He would just throw me back here anyways. He liked playing with me.

I made the call to try and go up the tree and fast, as Luca was only 50 feet away, now that I had backed up into the tree. He slowly started towards me.

I quickly ran at Luca, till I was about 20 feet from him and let me tell you he was surprised. I then turned around just as fast and ran at the tree at full speed. Just when I was only 4 feet away from the tree I leaped into the air, my hope for this was that I would get enough speed and momentum that I would be able to grab the closest branch to the forest floor.

Well I made it, but the bad part was that I jumped up higher than I thought I would and missed the higher up branch so I fell down to the one I was aiming for, the bad thing is that I fell hard as I grabbed the branch and I only grabbed it with one hand and that is how I dislocated my shoulder, again and it hurt!

It hurt like hades! "Son of my uncles' butt that I never had!" I yelled out at the top of my lungs. This wasn't the first time this has happened to me and it was the same arm too, what can I say? Bad things were always happening to me.

I still managed to pull myself up onto the branch and then I leaned back against the tree and closed my eyes trying to not pass out. This was just my luck!

I was so out of it that I forgot that Luca was trying to get me but it was too late. I opened my eyes to see Luca right in front of me, I tried not to scream but I couldn't help it.

I also jumped which caused me to shift to the right and down I went. This was going to hurt so bad and I didn't expect Luca to catch me. I know that he wanted to keep me safe but when it came to training he was different and I didn't like it. If I got hurt, then it was my fault... that is what he told me before we started today.

I screamed out as I hit the forest floor, I knew that I was going to pass out soon but I needed to tell Luca what had happened before I did, or he may just leave me here. Who knows...

I hurt so bad and my shoulder hurt even worse as I had fallen onto it when I fell out of the tree.

"Luca?..." I groaned out as I did my best to roll over.

"That was very graceful, Rina." His voice sounded like it was coming from inside of a tunnel.

"Luca, help..." I reached up and grabbed my right shoulder with my left hand and just laid there on my back trying to catch my breath and not pass out. Was I supposed to see stars when my eyes were closed?

I was starting to see black dots and they were getting bigger and I felt like throwing up.

"Rina?" I heard Luca's voice right above me but I couldn't see him as all I could see now was blackness.

"It hurts, make it stop." I started to cry. Of course, I would start crying!

"Rina, what hurts? What happened? Tell me little mate, what can I do?" I could hear the panic in his voice. Now he cared if I got hurt?!

"My shoulder, I dislocated it when I jumped into the tree and then I fell on it..." I tried to keep my eyes open but it was too hard not that it mattered when I couldn't even see out of them right now anyway.
