Jack had been badly hurt. Yes, Skylar had healed him, but he was still weak. He was hardly conscious.
He could feel himself being laid down. Of course, the last thing he wanted to do was to 'rest'. He wanted to get back at whoever, or whatever took him out and hurt Bella. He tried to push himself up but Maxon easily kept him down.
"Stop struggling!" Maxon snapped. "Tell us what happened."
Jack grit his teeth and laid there. He had finally stopped trying to get up.
"As I looked for the person who shot Bella, I saw a blonde girl with a bow and arrows. Obviously, she was the one who shot her, so, I attacked her. I tackled her and pinned her to the ground. I then started breaking her archery fingers. (Ones needed to shoot a bow) Suddenly, something threw me off of her, but when I got up to see what it was, there was nothing there. The girl was gone and I was being punched, thrown, kicked, etc... There was still nothing there. Before I knew it, I passed out." He said hatefully.
"What do you mean 'nothing was there'? Something obviously was, because you got beat." Skylar said confusingly.
"I'm telling you." He snapped. "Nothing was there. It was like I was being punched by air."
After that, he blacked out. Skylar looked at Maxon.
"What do we do now?" She asked.
"I don't know." He replied. "But I do know, we need to keep a look out. Listen for for anything. Stay on high alert."
Skylar feels Jack's and Bella's pulses. They were slow, but they would be fine. For now at least.
She looked at Maxon and nodded.
