"Clara what's going on?" Clara stood still looking down at the life less corpse laying before her ignoring what little sense that she had of Maxen being there watching her. Maxen had been looking for her an finally found her in an alley not to far from the Ale hall where they were but now that he found her he could just look at her in shock and wonder why she was covered in blood an why there was a lifeless corpse laying before her. "Clara w-what's going.....on?" Maxen had been shifting his eyes back an forth from the body an Clara while he said that still in utter shock.

[First person P.O.V]
For what felt days they both stood there there until Clara finally spoke up, "I-i don't know what just happened all of a sudden I just----lost control I-i felt like everyone was against me an felt like he was going to attack me" she slowly lifted up her hand from her side pointing at the lifeless body. We both stood there in shock for what felt like forever until people started wondering towards the alley, while they were Clara started to pout "w---what did I do?" she covered her face with her hands an began sobbing "why did this have to happen..?" By the time she finished talking people where at my back all of them kept whispering to each other "what's happened.....why did that girl do that....was it the girl or did that man force her to do it?".

With each whisper it seemed to get louder an louder I awaited them to become quieter but their volume kept rising, I turned around facing the small crowd in the alleyway I looked at each face seeing if someone I knew was in the crowd, until I saw no one that I knew of to my knowledge I yelled over the crowd "either leave the alley now without gossiping or stay an get beaten down like the leeches you are" with each word I said the crowds faces turned from confusion to what looked like a boiled up anger I looked over them again an said "if you don't like what I have to say then leave anyways I won't stand here an let you watch an look at an event that happened that you have no clue of" as I said that one of the men who was standing in the crowd stepped up face to face with me, "what cha gonna do if I stay hm?" The man had an average build with thick black hair an nobleman clothing he was roughly my height an stood tall like no one could break him down I smirked at how cocky he was "well if you wanna 'step' up an be all big and bad then I'll show you but let me ask are you cocky or just that stupid?". After I said that all he did was snarl then he took a step back when I saw that I snickered "huh so I guess you were just that stupid" after he heard those words he drew his hand back an swung at my face, before he could land his hit I moved to the side an plunged my hand into his stomach making him stagger back short of breath. I slowly walked up to him an grabbed him by his thick hair "now does this prove my point everyone" as he was still gasping for air I looked at the crowd then back to the man "I'm guessing you'll stop too?!" After I said that I head-butted him sending him back to the ground. "Now everyone leave an I won't say it again!" I yelled as I said they did all of them scattered throughout the street the alleyway lead off to. As I watched them all scatter I began hearing Clara's sobbing once more. I looked back at Clara who was now on her knees sobbing when I saw her I walked to her an knelt down beside her an wrapped my arms around her an said in a soft comforting tone "Shhh, it'll be ok Clara I promise" I kept my arms wrapped an knelt by her side until light for the next day began showing on the night sky "I promise it'll be ok, Clara I promise."
