Chapter 5: Sixth Grace Shadow Game: Round Two
Disclaimer: I don't own any of this.
Because it was a half day, Liz decided to grab some lunch at a local fast-food restaurant. Gathering her stuff, Liz took a rather round-about way of getting out of school, rather than taking a more direct route.
"Why aren't we going out the way we came in," Yami asked as Liz stepped out into the midday sunlight. Liz explained, "Because a really mean girl named Ivory beats me up if I go that way." Yami nodded, and off they went.
There was a strip center a few blocks from the school, and Liz decided on having lunch at a burger joint.
After ordering her usual lunch of a hamburger with cheese, Liz sat down at a booth that overlooked the busy street, and pulled out a book Ben had sent her. It was a book of fairy tales, and she was reading contently, when a pair of strong arms grabbed her roughly by her shoulders, and dragged her out back to the alley behind the restaurant. In the process, she dropped her book, and barely had time to yell for help!
"Hey, stop! Leave me alone," Liz shouted, but to no avail. There were two boys, in the sixth grade, and they had clubs, and the taller of the two had a vibro-pike. Liz tried her best to defend herself by using her lightsaber, but it was knocked out of her reach, and as a result, Liz wound up with many nasty blows, and soon after, she was lying on the ground in a small pool of blood, because she had been stabbed by one of the boys.
Yami was enraged that this happened, so he materialized into human form protectively in front of Liz, who moaned softly.
"I am the protector of this little girl, and you will be punished for what you did to her," Yami snarled. The boys smirked, and the taller one said, "Yeah, right."
Yami smirked at them, "In that case, we'll play a game. If you can guess which hand has the knife, you can stab me!"
This sounded too good to be true, and so the boys charged at Yami, who sent them flying, and they were soon wounded by the knife, as well as beaten by the clubs.
After all was said and done, Yami turned his attention to Liz, who had by now slipped into unconsciousness. Yami was horrified, and managed to carry her to the restaurant, where an ambulance was sent for!
Along the ride, Yami held Liz's hand, and told her, "It's going to be alright, Liz."
Since no one was at the Skywalker estate, Leia decided to check up on Liz at the hospital. According to the doctor, the wound was moderate, but it could have gotten worse very quickly, if Liz had not been found sooner. Also, Liz had lost quite a bit of blood, so she needed to stay in bed for the rest of the week, as well as some bad bruising from the heavy blows she got from the bullies. The boys were in custody, so Leia took Liz home.
Several hours later, Liz's eyes watered, and she asked quietly, "Where… where am I?" She sat up, and noticed her stomach was bandaged, and that the Sennen Puzzle was on her desk.
Yami appeared a moment later, and sat down on her bed. "Feeling better? I'm sorry I let you get hurt." Liz nodded, "No, it's alright, Yami. I should have been more aware. Who brought me home?"
Yami glanced towards the closed door, "Your Aunt Leia did. She is on the phone with your mother, but you need your rest." He placed his hand on her forehead, and brushed a stray strand out of her eyes, and Liz nestled under the covers, and soon fell asleep.
