Chapter 13

??? POV

I fell on the ground, landing right on my table. "Ow." I whine, looking up at the nineth graders, tears welling in my eyes. 

"Awe is he going to cry." One said in a mocking voice, crouching down to my level. 

I glare at him in defiance, "No! I'm not crying." I sniffled a little. 

"Awe he's crying. Haha you're a crybaby!" Another called out, pointing a finger at me, laughing. 

"Leave me alone!" I exclaim, glaring at the older kids. I try to stand, but a foot stomped down on my chest, making my back slam in to the concrete, knocking the air out of my lungs. 

The kid laughed as I struggled against his foot. "You know what ... I think we should teach him a lesson for interfering in our fun. What do you guys say?" The kid questioned, turning to the other three kids. 

Each one of them had a smirk on their face and a murderous glint in their eyes. I then quickly curl into a ball as the kid got his foot off of my chest. I felt pain in my back, side, leg, arm, face ... everywhere as a barrage of kicks made impact with my small body. 

"Hey!" I voice called out, causing the bullies to freeze in their action. They parted slight, allowing me to see a girl looking about two years younger than me with emotionless blood red eyes, (s/c) skin, and mid-length (h/c). 

"Stay out of this kid. Or you will be next." One of the kids warned. 

She didn't budge, instead she took a step forward, looking the bullies right in the eyes. "Leave my brother alone." She ordered, clasping her hands behind her back. 

My eyes widened, I glance up at the bullies, seeing one of them, the leader, begin to walk up to her. I begin to panic, "No! Leave her alone!" I tried to get up, but a hard kick to my side kept me down. 

The bully bent down to her level, a smirk forming on his face, "Who are you to give me orders?"

"I suggest letting him go. Or I may have to take drastic measures." She said coldly, no hint of fear in her voice. 

The kid busted out laughing, he then wiped a tear from his eye. I could hear his henchman chuckle behind me. "You? What are you going to do little girl?" He chuckled, straightening his back out to tower over her. 

"This." She said simply, kicking him in the crouch, causing him to tumble to the ground. She then backed away a bit, getting herself into a fighting position. 

"You ... b***h!" He growled, glaring up at my little sister who simply glanced at him in return.

The two other kids charged at her, she punched one across the face, I could hear a snap as his nose broke at impact. She then elbowed the other one in the throat, then grabbed his head, slamming it down onto her knee, knocking him out instantly. 

The leader of the group stood back up, she glance at him, but in the process she was struck by the third henchman. She stumbled back a bit, wiping a drop of blood with the back of her hand. The leader then kicked her in the back, knocking her to the ground. 

For the first time in all I have known her, pure rage shone in her eyes as she seemed to examine me. "You are going to pay for what you did to him!?" She yelled at the top of her lungs, jumping up to her feet quickly. 

She then moved quickly, punching the third hench men across the face, she then grabbed him arm twisting it around his back and pushed upward. A pop, followed by a scream was heard. She then pushed him to the ground and struck the leader across the face as he tried to punch her from behind.
