Tina walked down McKinley High's hallways at the end of the day. Well, the last bell had sounded two hours ago but considering she had had spent most of that time in the library 'studying' with Mike she didn't think it was to much of a waste of time. She giggled, the sound reverberating off the walls magnifying it. Soon she came to the front of the school and pushed open the double doors making herself feel important and enjoying the rush of cool air sweep across her face. Her thick heeled boots clacked down the steps as she sighed loudly out to the air. Her eyes made a quick glancing sweep across the car park before deciding that she didn't feel like going home just yet. The football field floodlights were on so she set off for a quick walk around the pitch.

The past couple of years had changed her immensely. At the beginning of her sophomore year she had been one of the Goths, the freaks. She was a loner and never really liked spending much time with other people and hid behind the fake stutter. When she joined glee club, it was the first time she felt she truly belonged somewhere, somewhere people cared about her. The first person who completely broke down the walls and uncovered her secret was Artie. He made her feel special, but not complete. She still sometimes felt bad about blowing him off for Mike but he had Brit for a while and from what the rumors said he was desperately trying to get Sugar (god knows why!). Then Mike. Mike was her missing puzzle piece, she needed him like she needed air. Being together was never awkward, It was as easy as breathing. She mentally scolded herself for quoting Twilight.

Wait... What was that? It sounded like somebody was whimpering. She looked at her surroundings before her gaze rested on a dark shape in the stands. Her mouth dropped open. From where she was she couldn't recognize who it was but she could see something else. There were dark red smears on some of seats and there were splashes of the persons blood painting the rest.

The person let out a small moan and Tina broke from her frozen state and ran towards them. She had to stop herself from screaming when she saw the real damage. The persons shirt had been ripped off. She looked again and mentally corrected herself... His shirt had been ripped off, revealing his torso and arms covered with deep gashes, as if someone as taken a whip and tied a spearhead to the end of it, and then repeatedly whipped him over, and over. A large purple-green bruise was forming around his lower abdomen and a second near his lower ribcage. She suspected a broken rib or worse.

His chest was heaving and Tina could hear his labored breaths. His face was crisscrossed with more cuts and the only visible part of his face was where the tears had washed away the blood. His nose was sticking out at a sickening angle and poured blood down to his open mouth where Tina could see he was missing teeth and more blood was gushing from it. His chestnut colored hair dried with blood had been cut and torn from his scalp. There was no way Tina would have recognized him until his eyes cracked open, dislodging the dried blood that was crusted around them. All she needed was a quick glance at those Blue-Green eyes that were full of terror to know who this was.

Oh God Rory, not you...

Yay I did it! I know its a short chapter but it did take me nearly two hours to write.

Anywhooo FYI this story will be told in the first person rather than third from now on.
