Chapter 2

AN: ok, well I thought I should put a scene in there with William getting slapped. You'll see more of him getting abused. You can probably tell that I really dont like him. Well, I actually hate him cause he's interfering with Yumi and Ulrich. Ok... on with the story.

Yumi walked into the office and sat down in a chair.

"So Yumi. I hear that you were showing inappropriate behavior in Ms. Meyer's class just now."

"Yes." she answered curtly.

"Would you mind telling me why you slapped William Dunbar?"

"Well..." Started Yumi.

Just then there was a knock at the door.

"I'm busey" responded Mr. Dellmas.

"It's and emergancy sir."

"Fine, come in."

In walked the school nurse.

"Sir, I have a Mr. Ulrich Stern in the infirmiry and he needs and ambulance emediatly."

"Yes, of course. Yumi I want you to wait here and don't move."

He left his office.

Yumi just sat there in shock.

Ulrich? Hurt? What could've happened. I saw him just this morning.

Mr. Delams then re-enterd the room.

"Yumi, you're good friends with Ulrich. So would you mind telling me why it looks like he's been beaten repeadily for the past month?"

"Wait. Ulrich's been beaten!"

"Yes, he has injuries that are beatings and haven't healed."

Yumi just sat there thinking.

"Who would want to beat Ulrich?"

Then it came to her. His brother. But last they heard he was in jail for 10 years.

"well..." She wasn't sure if she should tell. "there is..."

"Yes." urged Mr. Delmas.

"No it couldn't be. I have no idea sir." She lied.

"Very well. As for your behavior in class, detention for a week. 3 hours after school everyday."

"Yes sir."

"I hope you've learned your lesson"

"I have sir" she lied. She just wanted to get out of there to see if the others knew about Ulrich.

She exited the office and walked down the hall.

When she knew she was out of sight, she started running. She ran to the fron t of the school and saw the paramedics loading Ulrich onto a stretcher. She ran to his side.

"Oh Ulrich." she said.

"mmphmm" he murmered.

As the paramedics loaded him into the ambulance she asked if she couls go with them.

"I dont know..."

"Please... I'm his girlfriend." she said without thinking.

"alright, get in."

She climbed in and they took off.

As they drove to the hospital, the doctors in the back cut off Ulrich's Shirt and pants to have a better look at his injuries. As Yumi looked at him, she gasped. His stomach and legs were all covered with injuries. Some old, and some were recent. Very recent. Then, there was the one above his heart that blood was flowing from freely. It was an old wound, reopened.

AN: dun dun dun! who's beating Ulrich? Reviews! see that purple button? push it! R&R! If I dont get any reviews soon, I wont update it. I'm serious! Now lets get those reviews in!
