***Louis's POV***

McKayla told me everything. All about her mom, dad, sister, and that douche of a guy Damen. He hurt her!! Who would do that? She showed me all her scars...and I was crying. But, she wasn't which was really weird.

"McKayla? Why am I crying, but you're not?" I said.

"Because you just heard about this. And I've been living it since I was six. I'm all out of tears." she replied with a straight face.

I just pulled her into a hug. "Twelve year olds shouldn't be out of tears....nobody should ever be out of tears..."

"I know. And nobody should ever hurt and give other people scars...but they do it anyway." she responded while looking me in the eyes. That just set me off. She doesn't even care anymore!

"Where is this guy?? I have to teach him a lesson about treating people right!!!" I said angrily while standing up.

I was storming towards the door when somebody grabbed my hand. I turned around to see McKayla looking up at me. "No. Its okay, really. He won't be able to hurt me anymore."

"But he's already hurt you!! Lots of time!! Burns, cuts, broken bones, bruises, all of it and more!!!! Its not fair!" I shouted.

She looked shocked that I just yelled at her about not letting me go, but she didn't say anything. She just dropped my hand and walked over and sat on the couch, staring blankly at the tv.

I sighed and sat down next to her. "I didn't mean to yell, really. Its just that....he hurt you so bad! And....and....I just feeel like I should do something about it!"

"Lou, thats really sweet. But, its over now. Nothing will happen to me. I promise. Now, lets do something fun today!!!"

"Ok, well me and the boys were planning on taking you to play paintball...if you're up for it."

"Really?? That sounds like so much fun!!! When are we going?" she replied enthusiastically.

"Whenever you want!"

"10 minutes?"

"Sure thing! I'll call the boys!!"

***McKayla's POV***

We all piled into the community van, as I like to call it, and Paul drove us to the paintball place. We walked in and the guy working told us all of the rules...but I wasn't paying much attention.

"Everybody got it?" he said after he was finished.

"Uh-huh!!" we al replied.

"Great! So are we doing individuals, pairs, or groups of three?" he asked.

Everybody looked around at each other, waiting for a decision to be made. They weren't getting anywhere, so I just said, "Individuals!!!"

All the boys gave me skeptical looks. "Are you sure, Mickey? This is your first time playing paintball and everything...you might want a partner or something..." Zayn said.

"I can handle myself, Zayn." I said.

"Okay......" Zayn said in that tone that says Whatever-You-Say-But-You're-Not-Right.

We all got suited up and got our guns. Everybody had different color paintballs in their guns. Blue in Harry's, Yellow in Liam's, Pink in Niall's, White in Zayn's, and teal in Mine. Nobody knew each others color, except me, because I kind of sneaked a peek at the worker's sheet of paper. This was going to be fun. Not a single one of the boys knew that I used to go hunting with my dad, and I had a pretty good shot...

The horn sounded and we all ran in different directions. This place was HUGE!!!! I would easily get lost, but I didn't care. I hopped over a bunch of hills, and crawled under the barbed wire fence with mud under it. I felt like I was at some army training camp, but it was fun. I climbed over the wooden wall and finally dropped down. I think I found the best hiding spot. There were lots and lots of trees everywhere. And a few of them had tree houses. I quickly scrambled up one of them. I set up a little camp and looked out to the rest of the area. I decided to quickly do a test shot to see how far it would shoot. I stood up and aimed to an open spot. The paintball traveled pretty far until it fell and hit the ground. Just as I knealed down, Liam came around the corner. He saw my paintball that was on the grass and just started laughing. He probably thought that I missed a huge target...but little did he know! I quickly set my gun on my shoulder, looked and aimed, and pulled the trigger. The teal bullet flew through  the air and hit Liam right where his heart would be if he didn't have the padding on. I quickly ducked down beneath the ledge and looked at him through a small hole in the wood. Liam was shocked and looked around, trying to find the shooter. He gave up and walked to the door where everybody that was eliminated went to watch on all of the moniters. When I was almost positive Liam was watching the monitors, I shot the wood right by me so he could see my teal paintballs. I looked right at the camera and blew a kiss. 

I just waited in my spot until I heard Louis and Harry talking. I peeked out and listened in.

"C'mon Haz! Lets team up! Nobody will ever suspect it!! We'll win this thing!" Louis said.

"Ok, Lou. Who do you wanna get first?"

"Definetely McKayla. She'd be an easy target! I bet she doesn't even know ho to work her gun!!" They both started cracking up. Oh HEEEELLLLLL no!! I stood up and shot Louis in the chest and quickly shot Harry in the same place. It took less than a second for both of them to be out.

"What's that about me not knowing how to work a gun, Louis?" I said with a smirk.

"McKayla!?!"

"Yup! Now go join Liam out in the waiting room." I said while blowinga kiss to them too. They looked at each other with disbelief, and quickly looked to the window that Liam was lookin out of. He just smiled and shook his head with disbelief. Three down, two to go...

Niall came over just a couple of minutes after Louis and Harry left. He was just walking around, like he was the only person left in the game. I set my gun on my shoulder once again and pulled the trigger. I hit him right where I hit everybody else. He just shrugged his shoulders and walked out the door. Now, it was just me and Zayn. I knew everybody in that waiting room would be watching me. I felt like I was in the Hunger Games. I decided that I should get a move on and started climbing down the ladder. I made my way around my little forest until I found a meduim sized tree that I though I could climb. I started climbing it and was almost at the top when a white splat appear a few inches from my arm. I turned around, jumped off the tree and shot at Zayn while I was in middair. I hit him square in the chest, just as I did to the other boys. 

I landed on the ground, and landed on my ankle bad. It hurt really bad, but I wasn't planning on telling anybody until we got back to Louis and Harry's. This was to much fun. I slowly got up and tried to walk without a limp. I must've been doing a pretty good job, because Zayn didn't seem to notice.

"Damn, Mickey! You're good!!" Zayn said once I got over to him.

"Thanks Zayn. Now, lets go get the others. But, because i won you have to give me a piggyback ride...." I said. I wouldn't have asked for a piggyback ride normally, but my ankle was seriously killing me. And, I had a cover up for it. 

"Ok, hop on." Zayn said. And he carried me all the way over to the boys.
