To whoever reviewed my first chapter I just want you to know that it meant a lot! I mean, it meant a SHIT TON of a lot to me. I freaked out. So thank you. Hope you enjoy Chapter two!


Chapter Two: Was That a Bad Move?

Oh crap! What did I just do?

I had always been far too overprotective of things. But those were little things! Things like shoeing away a few crows bullying a smaller bird, or saving a bug from a spider web. But this was crazy! This was a man, a very scary drunk man in a dark alley. But after sitting there watching the scene unfold in front of me, I knew I had to do something.

Events in my past urged me on to act.

So I did. I yelled.

Now they were just staring at me, both looking very surprised. My stomach did a nervous trapeze act as the surprise slowly slid off the angry one's face.

I moved forward, out of the darker part of the alley I had been standing in.

The blue-haired one just continued staring at me. I now got a better look at the two, and they were much stranger looking than I had thought them before.

It was definitely their eyes that struck me first. I had never seen anything like them. One pair of heterochromic eyes, but not just one blue and one green, oh no that would be way too normal and un-frightening for this situation! He had one black iris and one red, and for a minute I couldn't stop staring.

That's when he spoke.

"Where in Satan's name did you come from?!"

He threw the thin man back down against the wall and turned to me.

"I don't see how it's any of your business what I do to him."

"I am not just going to sit here and let you hit him!"

"So why don't you shove off then, luv eh? Leave me to give him what he deserves."

My gaze fell to the beaten one, and let me tell you this man looked like he had gotten "what he deserved" far too many times.

There was blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, he was missing his front teeth and if I thought the first pair of eyes was weird they were no match for Mr. Victim over here. His were just big black holes in his head! The only reason I knew there were eyes in there was because of the movement they made as they flicked up to his abuser then back to stare at me.

I suddenly felt a wave of my own anger surge over me as I looked back to see the malicious smile now spreading across the dark haired man's face.

"I don't see what he could have done to deserve this!" I said through my teeth taking a step closer.

"I don't have to explain anything to you. So get lost! I have a beating to get back to."

He turned, grabbed the other man by his blue hair and dragged up onto his knees raising his fist for a second time.

Oh that is soo it! I ran up to the man and with all the strength I had threw a punch I didn't know I had the ability throw. It hit him in the side of the jaw and he staggered back, releasing his hold.

I screamed at him "I said leave him alone!"


2D

He couldn't believe what had just happened. No one hit Murdoc!

That was something that just didn't happen. Besides the endless amount of slaps he received from the endless amount of women he flirted with. But this was much different, this girl was defending HIM! He couldn't have her getting hurt on his behalf! So as Murdoc straightened up looking even more pissed off, 2D struggled to stand.

His body protested and his head throbbed, threatening a blackout but he managed just in time to see the girl stand unflinching as Murdoc rushed over and stopped a few inches away so that they were face to face, almost touching. His fists were clenched at his sides, his knuckles turning white and his face turning red with fury.

"Shouldn't have done that, luv."

"And what are you going to do about it, asshole? Hmm?"

He was amazed by the bravery of this girl. She was not much shorter than Murdoc and must have only been in her early 20's

"Leave 'er alone Murdoc. Your figh' is with me no' 'er." 2D managed to squeak out.

Murdoc whipped around and fixed 2D with a glare that caused him to flinch back into the wall with a little yelp. He snorted and looked back to the girl with an evil smile on his face.

"Fine. You want him so bad? You can have the sod."

He chuckled, picked 2D up by the shoulders of his jacket and made a show of brushing the dirt off of his clothing.

"Don't touch him you creep. Get out of here!" the girl said and stepped closer to Murdoc again, looking as menacing as she could.

"What? Can't a bloke say goodbye to his friend?" He pouted his bottom lip looking all together scary.

Ignoring the girl he turned back to 2D smiling with his hands at his shoulders.

" Have a nice night face-ache." He said it in a low, falsely sweet voice and in one quick movement he threw a punch directly into 2Ds stomach and walked away laughing as 2D fell into a crumpled heap.

The girl rushed over and crouched next to him.

"Jesus! Are you okay? It's fine, he's gone. What's your name?"

"Name's 2D" he gasped.

"2D, I'm Sam, and I'm going to take care of you."

His eyes widened in surprise at that statement. She went on talking, saying something about getting him to her car, and looking around. She had his head resting on her thigh and was stoking his hair almost subconsciously. Staring at her all, he had time to think before the blackness finally took him was, Why is she doing this for me?
