Chapter 1: Yi's Escape.

Yi was running, running from the Champions of the League. He was being hunted down for something he didn't do. His left arm was bleeding profusely and he couldn't stop it. He remembered that Vayne shot him twice in the same spot on his left shoulder which rendered his whole left arm useless. He managed to pull out the bolts from his arm while grunting in pain but he knew that it was a very bad idea and he was losing blood fast.

Most of the champions were shocked that he, of all people, killed two Summoners. Most people see him as the calm and collected person who had no intention of killing. As he ran down the hallway of the Institute Of War, he had a thought in his head. The reason why Yi had to run was because someone had accused him of killing two Summoners, which he clearly did not do.

'I need to know who does not believe in this lies, and fast.' Yi's mind raced.

Yi looked back and he saw a few champions, hot on his tail. While looking back, he saw what looks like Garen, Katarina, Jarvan IV, Quinn with Valor, Vayne, Shyvana, Talon and Lux. He could face them but because of his injured left arm, he was no match for all of them. He knew there were more than them as the High Counsellor told the other champions to split up and search for him so that they could cover up more ground and try to surround him.

What Yi was afraid of, was Teemo's deadly Mushrooms. That and Caitlyn traps which could be laid at a place where he wouldn't know about. To make matters worse, Rengar was nowhere to be found. That's what scared Yi. He knew Rengar could go invisible and suddenly threw a bola, capturing him, but he was not going to allow that to happen. He looked back again and he saw what looked like a Light Binding from Lux, a few meters from him. He sidestepped and he barely dodged a dagger that was thrown by Katarina. Lux threw out a Lucent Singularity (A/N: Her E.) but Yi sidestepped it again. However, he didn't manage to dodge Vayne's crossbow bolts as he knew that she, Shauna Vayne, had a very good sight and she never misses her target. Her bolts grazed his left shoulder over and over again. Yi cursed under his breath. He needed to get out of this long hallway. As he looked ahead, he saw a left turn from the hallway he was running. Yi tensed, expecting an ambush once he turned and soon he will be a trapped rat. He prayed that no one was there and he hoped that it would be another hallway. He was trying to reach the gates of the Institute, so that he could run to Ionia and find a place to hide.

As he approached the corner, his prayer was not answered. The one who was approaching the turn was none other than Fiora, the Grand Duelist. Fiora was busy looking at the ground, oblivious to her surroundings. Yi didn't have time to react. When he turned into the corner, he accidentally bumped into her. He fell backwards, as do the female.

"I am sorry Fiora, but I am in a hurry!" Yi said while standing up and continued running, while clutching his left arm. His sword was sheathed on his back, almost broken.

"Hey Yi, wait!" Fiora shouted, but he was long gone.

'What was that about?' She thought to herself.

She heard several footsteps approaching behind her so she stood back up. She was surprised when she saw the people who were chasing Yi.

"What is going on here? Why's Yi running away from all of you?" Fiora asked, confused about the situation.

They were all silent when Jarvan spoke up, "That damn Bladesman killed two Summoners. He should know the consequences of killing a Summoner! That means death. High Counsellor told us about it and she told us to kill him as to not destroy the reputation of the Institute Of War." Jarvan answered.

Fiora was shocked. She knew the consequences of killing a Summoner. Heck, even Nocturne, the Eternal Nightmare, didn't have the guts to kill his Summoner, despite his evil presence. Her face turned from shock to anger.

"When was this issued?!" asked the Grand Duelist, almost shouting at Jarvan, which Garen found it disrespectful of her to shout to King Jarvan even if she was a fellow Demacian. He was going to open his mouth to lecture her about disrespecting Jarvan but was held back by Katarina, who simply shook her head.

"Few hours ago. Where were you when High Counsellor announced the meeting?" Jarvan asked her, looking at her suspiciously.

Fiora looked at all of them with a puzzled expression. She tried to remember what she did in the past few hours. Soon, she remembered and she told all of the people who were there.


Flashback(Few Hours Ago)

She was having a sparring with Yi at the Gardens of the Institute. She had fire burning in her eyes, indicating that she was determined to defeat the Wuju Bladesman, which she had never defeated before. She was smiling, indicating that she was having fun. Across her was Yi, with two hands on his trusted blade. He was smiling as well, as he knew Fiora was getting better with her techniques. He felt like he was going to lose this sparring matchup which he never lost to Fiora before. Long story short, (A/N: I was too lazy to write out the whole match. Sorry!) She lost, but she was close. She sat on the grass, panting.

"So close, yet so far..." Fiora muttered, which Yi heard quite clearly.

Yi smiled from where he stood and he approached Fiora as he sheathed his blade.

"Stand up, Grand Duelist. You did well. There is always room for improvements." Yi told her, smiling and holding out his hand.

She smiled, reaching out to grasp his hand as he pulled her up to her feet. "Thank you, Yi. I really need to work on my speed and techniques."

"Not just your speed, but also your positioning. We shall spar again tomorrow, that is, if you decided to give up." Yi said as he smirked at her. He knew Fiora was not going to give up without a fight. She immediately accepted, with a wide grin on her face. She didn't want to back down until she had beaten Yi.

"I will be better and I will beat you, Yi!" Fiora said, with determination in her voice and face. She and Yi were sparring buddies for a long time and she was happy that she found a sparring buddy as she noticed that when she arrived at the Institute Of War, none of them were willing to spar with her as they knew that they would be easily beaten by the Grand Duelist, who was undefeated in Demacia.

Yi simply gave a soft chuckle. He turned around to leave when Fiora hugged him from behind, surprising the Bladesman which was hard as no one was able to surprise Yi.

"Thank you for being here even if you are busy with some of your own stuffs." She told him.

Yi turned back around and simply stroked her hair gently like how a normal human would stroke a cat. "I have to go now. Take a good long rest and have fun with your friends, Fiora."

As Fiora released him from her hug, she watched as Yi made his way to the hallways and corridors. She smiled, watching him as he went by. She didn't notice that several champions were making their way to the High Counsellor's office to have an urgent meeting as she was too mesmerized by the Wuju Bladesman. She looked at Yi's blade and was surprised that his blade had a small crack at the tip of the blade.


Back to Fiora.

As she concluded her story, she had a light blush on her cheeks. The people around her didn't say a thing. Some were scratching the back of their heads, some did a face palm. Jarvan was the first to recover and he told her what happened a few days ago.

"Few days ago, A Summoner found the body of another Summoner with a huge cut across his body. But as soon as the Summoner got closer to the body, he felt someone slash his back vertically. Another Summoner came and she saw the two dead bodies. She screamed and the ones that heard the scream were Garen and I. We ran to where the screaming was coming from only to find a traumatized female Summoner and two dead bodies with deadly cuts. We couldn't identify who did it. We tried to ask the female Summoner what happened but she was shocked beyond words. I was getting worried so I told Garen to send her to the hospital to let Soraka check on her while I ran to find the High Counsellor's Office to report about the situation." Jarvan told Fiora, who had her mouth gaped open. Soon, she recovered and nodded her head, telling Jarvan to continue his story.

"Surprisingly, she knew about this. I asked her how did she knew about it and all she told me was that it was from an anonymous person. The person told the High Councilor that it was Yi who did it." Jarvan continued, ending his story with a very angry expression.

"Now if you'll excuse us, we have someone to chase." Said Vayne, with no emotions, her voice was cold as ice.

Fiora just stood there as all the other champions ran past her.

"No... Yi couldn't have done this. He never would. He would never kill someone, let alone Summoners. He knew the consequences of killing Summoners..." Fiora muttered. Thoughts were flooding her mind. Scenarios were flooding her mind. She had to find him. She has to help him as she knew that he was accused of such lies.


With Yi

Yi was panting heavily. He had not run this long without stopping. His legs were giving way. His left arm was almost covered in blood. He was about to collapse soon, but he knew he can't stop now. He took in a deep breath and continued running while clutching his left shoulder. He wanted to hide to regain his stamina and find someone that could heal his broken arm. He looked back and no one was there. This made Yi nervous and at the same time cautious. He wasn't safe, even if he is alone. It was eerily quiet, and the only sound that could be heard was his heavy panting and the blood dripping from his left arm. Suddenly, his legs gave way and one knee was on the ground and his left arm flailed to the ground as well. He had to endure the pain. He stood up and limped out of sight of the people chasing him.

Yi looked around his surroundings. This was not going well as he hoped. He didn't remember the layout of the Institute Of War and if he continued running all the way to the gates, the Guardian of the Gate would simply crush him due to his tiredness and sluggish movements. As he looked ahead, he saw three sections. One was leading towards the north, one towards the east and another towards the west. He vaguely remembered that the west side was where most of the champions' dormitories were placed, but he was not as confident about it as he didn't know who was going to be there.

He went to the east side as he knew that his blood trail will lead them to wherever he goes. After walking to the end of the east hallway, he gripped his shoulder tightly, causing him to grunt in pain. He then ran with all his might to the west hallway. Just after Yi was past the west hallway, Jarvan appeared at the end of the South hallway with the rest behind him. He saw the trail of blood and told his team to follow it slowly.

Yi looked out of the corner and saw Jarvan with his comrades, following his blood trail as he expected. He smiled weakly. As he turned back to the hallway, he took a few steps, reaching the first door, before falling to one knee again, his vision becoming blurry as time goes by, coughing heavily and at the same time, coughing out blood. This is because he ran for a few hours without stopping with a broken left arm. He leaned against the door to rest his broken arm and also to regain some of his strength.

"I have... to hide... Losing too much.. blood.." he weakly told himself.

He turned to his right and chuckled weakly as his blood trail ended at the end of the east hallway. He heard some footsteps coming from the hallway which he was at before he went to the east and west side of the hallway. He did not notice that the door he was leaning on was the door of Fiora and Soraka. Before he could even stand up, his vision began to fade and he collapsed, making a noise loud enough for the people who were chasing him, shocked, except for Vayne.

'Fiora... I'm sorry.' Yi thought to himself as he was about to hit the floor.

The last thing Yi noticed that he was being carried then his vision became black.


With Fiora (Few Minutes Ago)

Fiora was running back to her room. She was sharing rooms with Soraka and hoped that she didn't believe about Yi's situation. Meanwhile, Soraka was simply watching the blue skies turn grey when she was knocked out of her trance by a loud noise. After recovering, she turned towards the source of the noise. She was surprised to see a very shocked Fiora who was panting heavily.

"What's wrong, Fiora?" asked Soraka, confused about her friends' panicked expression. Fiora shared her room with Soraka and she accepted her company as she was getting tired of being alone in her room everytime when she came back from League matches.

Fiora tried to slow her breathing down and after a few minutes, she managed to steady her breathing. Then she told her what happened.

Soraka was speechless. She didn't want to believe it. Yi, the calm Wuju Bladesman, a killer?

'No... Not possible.' Soraka said mentally.

"Fiora, I do not believe those false accusations." Soraka said, with a stern voice.

"I know you do not believe them. I don't believe those accusations as well. We need to find him and hide him here for the time being. Once no one is around this area, we will make our way to Ionia to be safe." Fiora told her friend.

Soraka thought about it for awhile and then she nodded her head in agreement.

"But we need to find him first. When was the last time you saw him?" the Starchild asked the Duelist.

"He bumped into me when I was walking around the corner and he instantly ran off before I could even talk to him. He was being chased by some of the people in the League." Fiora said.

Soon, the room fell into silence. Both of them were thinking of Yi's whereabouts. He had to be somewhe-

-THUNK-

Both Fiora and Soraka jumped to their feet, startled. Fiora placed a finger on her lips and Soraka immediately understood what she meant. She unsheathed her rapier from her side. She signalled Soraka to stay cautious and be aware, in which Soraka nodded. Fiora slowly approached the door, and placed her ear on the door. She could only hear the heavy breathing of the person outside her door. Soraka had a shock expression and quickly tapped on the shoulder of Fiora. Fiora looked at her questioningly.

"I hear footsteps on the right." Soraka warned her.

Their room was the closest to the other hallways. From the south corridor, taking a left turn towards the west, few steps forward and there stood their door.

Fiora's heart was racing. It was beating at an alarming rate. As she was about to reach the door knob, she heard another sound as if like a body had fallen. She looked at Soraka behind her and nodded. She raised her left hand and told Soraka mentally at the count of 3, she will open the door.

"Hurry! The footsteps are getting closer!" Soraka panicked.

Fiora quickly opened the door, hitting Soraka's jaw simultaneously as Soraka was right behind her. She turned to apologize but Soraka had her mouth gaped open. She arched an eyebrow, confused as why she had her mouth open. Soraka simply pointed to something behind Fiora's back. With a confused expression, rapier still in her right hand, she turned. What she saw almost brought her to tears.

It was Yi, lying down on the ground. She saw that Yi's left arm was bleeding profusely, but mostly of the blood was covered by Yi's right hand on his shoulder. After what seemed an eternity, she shook herself out of her trance and quickly carried Yi's limp body to her room and asked Soraka to lock the door so that only she and Soraka will be able to unlock the door. As she sighed, she turned and saw that Fiora had place Yi's body on the floor. Fiora had tears in her eyes, but she wasn't sobbing as loudly. She turned to Soraka, who had a worried look on her face. She wasn't confident about healing Yi with her powers as the healing won't fully recover his arm to full strength but it would take a week for the arm to function normally.

"Step aside, Fiora." Soraka told the Duelist.

Fiora obliged and she sat on Yi's right side with her knees close to her face while Soraka began to heal Yi's left arm. She heard footsteps go past their door in a hurry and she heard Katarina shouting something about being tricked. She heaved a sigh of relief. Her tears continued to stream down her cheeks and she prayed that Yi would wake up and recover. After what seems like an hour or so, Soraka stopped healing.

"His arm will recover in a week. We will need to remove his armour and his top as his shoulder was hit by something, thus causing the bleeding. We are going to need a new armor for him."Soraka sighed, knowing that her job was done, but only temporarily.

"And a new blade." Fiora reminded her dear friend.

Fiora slowly took off Yi's armour along with his undershirt. She couldn't help but blush lightly at Yi's toned body. After taking off his armour and undershirt, she saw the bleeding arm. She cringed; she hated to see Yi's blood. She saw the almost-cracked Blade that laid at the corner of the room. She took a look and sighed as the blade was nearing it's end. She told Soraka that she would clean his bleeding arm. Soraka nodded and took a bandage from the cupboard. After half an hour, Yi was patched up. The bandage was wrapped on his left shoulder. Soraka yawned, knowing that using her powers caused fatigue and patching up Yi took a lot out of her so she decided to have a nice sleep as it was night time in the Institute and she bid Fiora farewell as she went to bed.

Fiora sat beside Yi on a stool, gripping Yi's right hand with her two hands. Her tears stopped, but she was on the verge of crying again as she saw his limp body on the bed, not moving. She touched his heart and felt a small thump. She prayed that Yi would wake up soon but she knew he needed to rest in order to recover. She also had to find someone in the Institute to forge another Blade similar to the one that Yi has. She kissed Yi on his forehead, hoping he would wake up. Soon, her eyelids felt heavy and she placed her head at the side of the bed to have a good sleep. She didn't notice that Yi's right hand twitched a little bit, indicating that he was definitely alive, but barely.

In a far away distance, one person looked on, a devilish smirk on his face. He had an aura, a devilish aura, around him. His big sword impaled on the ground as he laugh hysterically through the night. He would kill the Bladesman. He wanted his blood on his sword. He turned, jumping to the sky as his wings expanded. He picked up his sword and watch as it changed color from purple, to a dark red. 'This will be fun.' Another hysterical laugh pierced the silent night again and he was gone in an instant.


Okay, to be continued! Find out what happens to Yi on the next chapter! Will he wake up? Will he still be asleep? Who is the mysterious person who wanted Yi dead? Find out on the next chapter! Reviews would be helpful as this is my first time writing a fanfic and criticism makes me motivated to improve on my writing (typing?) skills! Thank you and have a great day!

Peace!
