Bullies & Protectors

I hope you enjoyed chapter one of this book. I was really excited to make another chapter so I hope you enjoy.

I was panting so much that I worried I would pass out. As I trudged on, my legs burned with every step. Slowing to a stop I heard a clatter behind me. Turning slowly, I watched as the orange cat came closer and waited a few seconds before realizing the blue fish girl was not with him. My gut felt heavy as I sensed a figure coming closer furiously behind me. Leaping to the side I managed to duck out of the way as the girl had kicked the spot I just stood. I felt relieved for a second, until she smirked and I realized it didn't matter if she had hit me or not. I was cornered between the two jock's with no escape. I pulled myself to my feet as the jock's watched and laughed quietly under their breath. Scared, I turned my head side to side as I quickly searched for a safe place from these bullies. I peered up at them as they closed in on me and raised their fist.

I was on the floor, in and out of consciousness, I felt a lot of pain shoot through me from my rib. I looked down, saw a lot of blood and felt as though my ribs were broken. I blacked out for a few minutes and woke to see them shoving me harshly into a locker. I fought hard to stay awake. I was bleeding too much; if I fell asleep there was a chance I could not be found and bleed out. It all seemed pointless as they walked away whilst laughing loudly.

I was still wondering where that nerd had gone. I just didn't understand why he would run away from me. 'Was he scared of me?' I pondered whilst reading the paper from the office telling me where my locker and classes were. This is what it read:

Great, I thought sarcastically. At least I had a lot of PE and Art lessons. I'll just find some nerd to do the work for the rest of the subjects. I counted up till I found my locker but I swear I heard some shuffling inside. Curiously, I took a step back as I opened the locker. Sure enough some nerd fell out. 'Wait' I thought 'isn't that the cute nerd I was talking to outside? NO, NO NO! He's not cute he's.... he's ... wait he's bleeding!'

Alarmed I crouched beside him as he whispered "Help." He then passed out so I began to panic. If I moved him it'd probably make the situation worse. 'What should I do!?' I internally yelled. I should get a teacher. I could get my dad, Ink to help, but i'd have to leave this defenseless nerd alone. If I did he could get more injured by other students. Taking the risk I decided  it was best to get my dad. Racing as fast as I could I soon managed to reach the art block.

I awoke once more to the student I had met outside running away. 'Was he leaving me to die?' I anxiously thought. 'No!' I though determined 'I don't want to die here. I won't die here.' I slowly managed to pull my self to my knee's. I grabbed my side where I was bleeding from. Applying pressure, I began to slow the bleeding. I groaned in agony as I attempted to pull myself to my feet. My vision was blurry and my legs quaked beneath me. I felt as though I was gonna pass out again, but I needed to get to someone who would help me My vision began to darken but I thought I saw two figured coming closer to me. Then the darkness conquered my vision.

I had reached the art block and desperately continued racing towards my dad's room. I knew he had a class but that would have to wait. I barged into the class. Angrily, my dad turned to me and exclaimed "Pj! What are you doing here!? You should be in class."

"Dad some student got injured." I replied.         

"Then take them to the nurses. You should know where that is." He stated.      

Panting I exclaimed "We don't have time for this. If we stay here he'll die but if I move him then his injuries will get worse."              

"Fine then, show me where he is." Dad said in a more worried tone. It was only now I realized the entire class had been listening to this and were now curiously and anxiously shifting, while wondering who was injured. Me and my dad were running back to where I had been forced to leave the boy, but I had to slow down a bit so my dad could keep up. We were almost there when dad explained we needed some medical kit stuff and that I should call an ambulance if it was severe. I wasn't sure how serious the wounds were. He was bleeding a lot but I wasn't sure how deep the wound was so I didn't call an ambulance but fished my phone out of my pocket for if it was necessary. I still didn't understand why I was so worked up about this person being injured. If it was anyone else I was sure that I would probably wouldn't have been affected about this, but for him... I was scared. I didn't like being scared...

When we finally reached the location I had left the boy I was shocked to see that he was no longer laid on the floor. Me and my dad's eyes both went wide as we saw the boy stood up clutching his side. My dad quickly raced to his side to steady him as he went unconscious and called out to me "Call an ambulance and your father!" I quickly did as he asked by calling an ambulance first and then raced of towards the PE block. I was pretty sure that my father had a PE lesson and decided it was best not to announce to the class a boy was injured. Instead I calmed myself enough to explain that Mr Ink requested him and he should follow me. Error obliged and once we were out of the classroom I quickly told him to run. Fortunately, Error was faster than dad so I didn't have to slow my pace and we made it to Ink and the boy in a matter of minutes. Error's face paled slightly as he looked down at the boy covered in blood, whom Ink had managed to prop up. Without wasting any time Error rushed to the other side of the boy and between them managed to prop him up. I heard ambulance sirens and the boy was slowly opening his eyes again but snapped them shut almost instantly as he winced in pain. I didn't like seeing him in pain. I didn't understand my feelings right now. I didn't even know this boys name and I felt like I needed to protect him and I would have beat up the people who harmed him.

This is the second chapter . I decided Ink is going to be 'dad' whereas Error is going to be called 'father'.  Hope you enjoyed this chapter.
