"Keep away from me!!! I mean it this time Tyson!!" I pushed him away. He insists on including me in everything, and lately he's taken to staring at me, and that unnerves me. I ran outside. He let off this time, and went inside, and roamed the fridge. He came back out with a foot thick sandwich, bag of chips, and a 20 liter Soda. He loped off to the TV. I walked out into the street. Other bladers were practicing on the street alleyways. They weren't that good. They stared at me, but I completely ignored them. The came up to me, and started babbling, but I just said,'Look kid, I have somewhere to go'. I had this all the time. It started to rain. Great. That's all I needed. Some rain. And it was my lucky day. It was acid rain. I could hear my flesh burn, so I ran the rest of the way.
The alleyway provided some protection. And the roofing of my apartment helped a little . I opened the door, then as soon as I was in , slammed it. I literally fell into a scraggly arm-chair. Maybe now I could get some sleep. I had been trying for several nights now. But I couldn't. I don't know why. I thought that it was because I was worried about Dranzer being stolen, in my sleep. But that wasn't it, because I knew I would know if someone entered. My skin still burned from the rain. I went and raided the medicine cabinet. There were 3 bottles. Some Iodine, an aseptic soap, and a bottle of blue junk, which turned out to be cough syrup. I took out the iodine. Sticking my hand in, I could put it on, without the use of cotton balls, or tissue.
"Shit!!!!" That stuff burnt more than I remembered, and I dropped the bottle at my feet. It rolled around, and red goo came out the end. I followed the bottle, to the floor. My clothes were torn badly, I noticed. I got up, and took off my shirt, and everything besides my pants. Switching the bathroom light on, I steered the shower nozzle in my direction. I turned on the water. It was freezing. I shivered, but stayed under. I was used to it, it only came out cold. And this was the only place I could truly be alone to take a shower. I rubbed the sore burns tenderly. They hurt like hell. I rubbed soap all over. And rinsed, then lathered my hair, and rinsed that out too. It drooped slightly. But oh well, who was I trying to impress?
I tore the towel from the rack. I rested my face in it for several minutes, before actually drying off with it. And I found some spare clothes. I yet again fell into the chair. But I still couldn't sleep. I was tired, and worn. Iknew something was after me, but I didn't know what, and I didn't know how tho protect myself, besides hiding for the moment. I wasn't in the shape, being so worn, to fight right now. I pulled out Dranzer, and stroked the top. I could hear the doorknob twisting, in the front of my apartment. I ran to the back window, and jumped out of it, falling on my feet. When I looked around, I saw Tyson, Max, And Ray. I didn't want to deal with them now. So I ran some more.
When I thought that I was far enough behind, I stopped, and rested against a tree, panting heavily.
Then I heard a scream.
A scream that startled every bone in my body. I covered my ears. Then I heard a sob,"No, please don't......." SO I ran to where it came from. I tripped, and fell flat on my face, but I got up again. In the Ally. SO I looked in. There were many shadows moving away, human shadows, and then one body in the middle, left behind. I thought it was a man, who won, and the others were bigger, and they just beat the crap out of them. But it was a teenage girl. About 15. She was lying sprawled out, and had several deep bruises, and one arm lying out at an angle which couldn't be natural. She had ears strewn down her face, mixed with blood.
I walked up to her and brushed the hair out of her face. She grabbed my wrist, and with bloodshot eyes, stared into mine. I blinked . "Are you here to rape me to?" She started to cry again. "No!!" She looked at me uncertainly. "I won, they are sore losers, and the decided to take their anger out on me, And there were 10 of them, and only 1 of me. I took out 4, but I can only do so much, you know??" I nodded. I picked her up in my arms, and walked steadily to Tyson's Grandfather's Dojo. " Hey....Wait I know you...," She looked at me intently."Then who am I? " "You're my savior." That's all she said then blacked out.
Me, a savior?
