The Protector

The Report

Moonya POV

The next day, I went to the principle's office to report what happen yesterday. Mr. Harmon said, "Good morning, how can I help you?" I said, "I want to my a report about what happen yesterday, Naomi got beat up." Mr. Harmon said, "What happen? Tell me everything." I told him the same thing that Naomi told me. Mr. Harmon said, "The 208 squad? Those boys and girls... I'm very sorry for what happen, is she hurt in any way?" I said, "Not really, she only flinched when I grabbed her arm. Other than that, she's fine." Mr. Harmon said, "Well, she can take the rest of the day." I said, "Thank you. Naomi, you can take the day off."

I turned around and looked but she was gone. I said, "Naomi!!" Mr. Harmon said, "I forgot to tell you that the 208 squad likes to kidnap people who dare tells on them, this is all my fault." I said, "No, it's fine. Just hope that they don't hurt her." Mr. Harmon said, "Oh they will, we need to find her." We left the office and searched for Naomi, when I passed the bathroom, I heard deep breathing. I went inside and saw Naomi on the floor in a puddle of blood. I said, "Naomi, what happened?" Naomi said, "They... They..." I said, "Shhh... Just keep your eyes open." I picked her up and went back to the office where Mr. Harmon was there. He said, "Oh my goodness... Go to the hospital and get her treated. Take a few days off from school, in fact I'll call you and let you know when she can come back." I said, "Okay." I rushed Naomi out of the school and to a hospital, the doctors took her away and they guided to me to the waiting room.

Later, a doctor came out towards me and said, "Are you the child's guardian?" I nodded my head yes and he said, "Right this way." I followed the doctor to Naomi's room. Naomi was asleep, the doctor said, "She had a stab wound but it wasn't critical. She'll be fine, just a few days of rest." I said, "Okay." The doctor left and I sat on the couch and fell asleep.

"Moonya! Moonya!" I open my eyes and I see Naomi standing next to me. I said, "Naomi, what's wrong?" Naomi said, "Nothing, I was waking you up from your sleep." I said, "What are you doing out of bed?" Naomi said, "I feel fine, I don't need to stay in bed." I said, "You do, your going to be here a while until your get better enough." Naomi said, "I feel okay, nothing is rea--" She fell to the ground, I said, "I told you, now get back on that bed." I help Naomi back in bed, and she had the look like she was in pain. I said, "You should sleep." Naomi said, "I can't, the doctor came in and gave me medicine before I woke you up." I said, "Well, you'll just have to sleep it off. I had to do it." Naomi said, "Thats because your older than me and you have been through a lot." I said, "Well, I guess you can say it like that. I started going to hospitals until I was 12 and thats because I fainted during my house being on fire." Naomi said, "See there you go!!" I said, "Shhh! Don't wake everyone up. Just hold my hand." Naomi said, "Thats the first..." I said, "Of what?"

Naomi said, "No one has ever asked me to hold their hand, especially a girl. When two girls hold hands that means they're gay." I said, "Where do you get all this whacky information from?" Naomi said, "Few people, they said I was gay." I grabbed her hand and said, "This is not gay, this is lending energy and strength to people." Naomi said, "You sure you don't feel weird about this?" I smiled and said, "Nothing at all."

For a while, Naomi stared at the ceiling, I kept holding Naomi's hand until she fell asleep. However it didn't happen like that, she kept staring at the ceiling until her eyes rolled to the back of her head and made a loud shriek. I said, "Naomi, what's wrong?!" A nurse came in asking if everything was okay, I said, "No, my friend here she's--" Then I felt trembling and shaking and look back at Naomi who was shaking. The nurse said, "You will have to leave the room." I look back at Naomi, she was foaming blood everywhere. The nurse pulled me out and a couple of doctors went in. They closed the door and locked it. I ran back to the door and tried to open it, but it wouldn't. The nurse tried to pull me away from the door saying, "Let them work, it will okay." I said, "What if she dies?! I can't lose her!!!" Another doctor came and gave me a shot and I passed out.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Later, I find myself in a room. I sat up and tried to stretch, but my hands was strap to the rails of the bed. I tried to break free, the nurse who pulled me out of Naomi's room came in and said, "Hold on there, relax." I said, "Where is she?" The nurse said, "She'll be fine." I looked at like I was a lost child in need. She said, "Would you like to see her?" I nodded my head and she unstrap me. I got off the bed and the nurse guided me to Naomi's room where she was sleep. Thank God she was still alive, the nurse said, "The medicine that a doctor gave to her before was poison. We searched for the doctor but all we found was a mask and a white coat." I said, "How was he able to get in?" The nurse said, "That's for the police to work at, are you okay from earlier?" I said, "Yeah. Look I'm sorry about that." The nurse said, "It's okay. Most people would cry like that, but never be in rage. I have to get back to work, I hope she feels better." Then she left the room. I look back at Naomi and grabbed her hand until she woke up.
