HI! (Waves like an idiot) LOL. Okay, if you thought the first couple of chapters were kinda—well, not interesting I'd like to say two things: 1. why the hell are you still reading this story! And 2. I guarantee you'll like this chapter 'cause there's a ton of action in it. Corey, this is your chapter! Oh and to Melissa, Alejandra, or Ana, if you're reading this story, don't worry; your chapters are coming up. I think (I'm at least 90 sure) you'll be in chapter 6 or 7. Okay, here it is; the fourth chapter! Wooooh!
Chris and Mikey kept on running as fast as they could until they turned a corner at the 99¢ Store.
"I—think we lost them." Chris said out of breath. Chris then turned around to look at Mikey but instead got a balled up fist smack her in the face.
Chris fell to the ground and covered her face with her hands. She moved her hands which were completely red with blood spilling out of her nose and mouth.
"Holy shi—"
"God damn it Chris! What the hell's wrong with you!" Mikey screamed pushing her against the wall. "You almost got our asses arrested!"
"I had to buy us some time to run away." Chris told him.
"Do you know what you just did! You just flippin' socked a police man! If we get caught we're getting sent to jail!"
"But we didn't get caught stupid ass!" Chris screamed.
"You bastard! We're not off the hook yet! We're wanted criminals! We can't go anywhere now because of you! How the hell are we gonna survive if we can't go anywhere!" He yelled pushing Chris against the wall again.
"Stop pushing me!" Chris cried.
"Why! This is your fault anyway you son of a—"
"Go on! Say it!" Chris yelled. Mikey was silent. "That's right, you can't say it 'cause you're too afraid to cuss the big words."
"I don't need to say it to describe what you are." Mikey shot back.
"What am I then?"
Mikey paused for a while and walked towards Chris slowly with his fist clenched tightly.
"You're a stupid," He started off by punching her in the cheek. "Cross-dressing," he then punched her in the other cheek. "Flat-chested," He then pushed her against the wall and saw her whole face covered in blood. "Little witch!" He then finished her off by kicking her in the stomach with his knee as hard as he could.
Chris gasped loudly holding her stomach trying to fill her lungs with air as she slowly dropped to her knees throwing up blood.
Mikey just stood their listening to the gagging noises Chris was making while she was throwing up blood. His face then changed from filled with rage to consumed with pity when he heard Chris—crying.
Chris slowly held her head up giving Mikey a terrifying death glare. Mikey was shocked at how badly he beat her up.
Blood was trickling down her nose and mixtures of blood and saliva was spattered all over her shirt and mouth. Dried up blood and sweat was covered all over her head and her neck and her short black hair looked like it was blow-dried for an hour and left uncombed. She was a complete mess.
"Oh my God."
"Is that—really what you think of me Mikey?" She asked breathing hard still holding her stomach.
"Chris . . . I—"
"Well," Chris said cutting him off as she slowly got up with the help of her right arm. She was in so much pain her legs were shaking while she got up and it still hurt to breath. "This . . . is what I think of you."
And with that said, Chris raised her fist and punched Mikey right in the face.
"You're a stupid," She screamed punching him in the chest. "Ugly ass," She yelled kicking him with her knee in his stomach. "Perverted," She yelled pushing him against the wall. "Gay piece of crap!" She screamed finishing him off by kicking him between the legs.
"OH . . . SHI—" But Mikey was in too much pain to finish the rest.
"Ha! Take that you gay bas—AH!" Chris screamed losing the feeling in her legs and collapsing in pain.
"Chris!" Mikey cried slowly getting up holding his 'sensitive area' and walking towards Chris. "Are you okay?"
"Ah!" She cried holding her stomach. "My freakin' stomach—freakin' hurts!"
Chris then quickly got up and turned away from Mikey throwing up blood mixed with saliva and stomach acids.
"What have I done? I made her sick." Mikey said to himself as he saw Chris vomiting and crying in pain.
"Hey you kids! Don't move!" A police woman yelled from her police car.
"Oh crap." Mikey swore as he helped Chris up. "Come on! We gotta go!"
Chris felt light-headed and didn't know what was going on. All she could manage to get through her head was Mikey's yelling.
"Back up calling! We've got two teenagers at the corner of the 99¢ Store. Requesting back up around the corner so we could have them surrounded." The police woman said on her walkie-talkie.
"We're on our way." Said a police man on the other end of the walkie-talkie.
"Take 'em down." The police woman ordered to her partner next to her. The police man nodded his head as him and the police woman got out their tranquilizer guns and fired them at Chris and Mikey.
"Look out!" Mikey yelled as he pushed Chris out of the way and let the tranquilizers hit him. He screamed in pain collapsing to the ground.
"Mikey!" Chris screamed as she got back to her senses.
"We've got 'um." The police woman said as her and her partner ran towards Chris and Mikey.
Just then, a black crow-like figure arose from the ground right in front of the police.
"What in God's name is that?" The police woman yelled in fear.
"Oh my God." Chris said in a low whisper sitting on the ground in awe with her mouth open and her eyes widened in shock and amazement.
The crow-like figure then turned its head around and looked at Chris with its glowing hazel eyes.
"Run!" It said to her.
"What?" Chris asked in confusion and even more awe when she noticed it could talk.
"Fire at will!" The police woman ordered as her and her partner started shooting the crow-like figure. The dark figure looked at the police saw the bullets coming towards it. The crow-figure then opened up its wings and revealed a teenaged boy dressed in black and blue.
The teenaged boy raised his right hand which made the bullets stop in their tracks and explode.
The police gasped in shock.
"What the hell is this thing?" The police woman asked.
The teenaged boy then turned around and saw Mikey still on the ground unconscious and Chris still standing their.
"What the hell are you still doing here! Run!" He yelled.
Chris looked up at the teenaged boy and then looked down at Mikey.
"I—he . . . Mikey." She stuttered.
The teenaged boy just looked at Chris in confusion and then looked down at Mikey.
"Oh, I see." He said as he raised his hand and got a hold of a light-blue crystal that was tied to a black lace and wrapped around his neck like a necklace. (It's exactly like the Eutherium Crystal in "Castle in the Sky".)
He held the crystal tightly in his hand as it started to glow. Mikey also started to glow and was also levitating in the air.
"Tenkū no Shiru Azarath!" The teenaged boy yelled as a beam of light formed from the crystal and also Mikey. In a matter of seconds, the glowing stopped and the teenaged boy gently set Mike down next to Chris. Chris just stood their in amazement.
"Now—run." He ordered as he turned back to the police.
"Stand your guard!" The police woman yelled as her and her partner stood their ground.
The teenaged boy looked at the police with a serious face as he raised his hands with the light-blue crystal around his neck glowing brighter.
"Balse!" He yelled shooting a massive amount of energy from his glowing blue hands. Smoke was everywhere and by the time it cleared up; there was nothing but a deep pot-hole where the police and three other buildings once stood.
"Whoa." Was all Chris could manage to say.
The giant black crow figure then disappeared and their stood only the teenaged boy who turned around and looked at Chris with his serious hazel eyes.
"Run." He said to Chris in a low whisper. And with that said, the teenaged boy vanished before her eyes.
Chris then got back to her senses and looked down at Mikey.
"Mikey! Wake up!" She yelled shaking him. Mikey's eyes then shot open as he quickly got up and looked at Chris.
"Chris! Are you okay?" He asked.
"Come on! We've gotta get outta here!" Chris yelled as she helped Mikey up and started running.
Just then, four police cars appeared in front of them and stopped, blocking their only exit.
"Stop right their!" Yelled a police man holding a gun as he got out of his car. The other police men and women did the same and aimed their guns at Chris and Mikey. Chris and Mikey just stood their having no idea what to do.
Chris then saw a path her and Mikey could get through without getting caught by the police. She looked up at the odds. Eight against two.
"I can make it."
Chris then closed her eyes, took a deep breathe, and ran forward.
"Fire!" A police man ordered.
"No!" Mikey yelled as he tried running after her, but was stopped by two police men. One grabbed both of his arms and the other knocked him in the head with a night-stick.
"Mikey!" Chris yelled as she turned and saw what happened.
Mikey was still conscious as he looked up and saw Chris still running. His eyes then widened when he saw what she was about to collide with.
"CHRIS! STOP!" He yelled as loud as he could.
Chris then turned her head straight and saw what Mikey was trying to warn her about. It was a police car driving right in front of her. She put her arms in front of her, but before she could stop her legs from moving, the police car hit her—hard.
"CHRIS!" Mikey cried at the top of his lungs as he saw his best friend hit the ground with a thud.
The police man who just hit her with his car quickly got out and went towards Chris to see if she was all right.
"Someone call an ambulance! This kids' seriously hurt!" The police man reported.
"NO!" Mikey yelled as he wiggled free from the police man who was holding him and ran as fast as he could to Chris.
"Chris! Chris wake up! Wake up Chris! Chris!" Mikey cried trying to shake Chris into consciousness.
"Chris, no! Please wake up! Please! Chris! God damn it Chris wake up!" He yelled as tears started to stream down his face. "Chris! I'm—I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you! I didn't mean all those things I said! You mean so much to me Chris! Please Chris! I'm sorry." He cried wrapping his arms around her burying his face in her neck and crying with so much sadness and guilt overflowing his body.
"All right kid, get out of the way so we could get her to a hospital." A police man said to him.
"No! She's my friend! I won't leave her!"
"Come on kid, you're coming with us." A police woman said to him as another police woman got a hold of Mikey and pulled him away from Chris.
"No! Don't make me leave her! Let me go!" Mikey yelled trying to break free.
The police woman then twisted Mikey's arms in back of him and smacked him against a wall while her partner handcuffed him.
An ambulance siren was then heard as it stopped in back of the police cars. Out came two doctors with a rolling bed running towards Chris lifting her on the bed.
"Chris!" Mikey yelled as more tears started to stream down his face. He then lifted his foot and kicked one of the police women in back of him. When that police women was down, Mikey was free and started running towards the ambulance Chris was in.
"Stop him!" The police woman ordered as her partner took out a tranquilizer gun and shot it at Mikey. Mikey was hit.
He gave out a loud scream of pain and fell to the ground as he looked up at Chris and the two doctors who were taking her to the hospital. In a matter of seconds, everything was becoming blurry until Mikey couldn't see anything but complete darkness as his eyes shut and his body and mind lost consciousness.
"Chris." He managed to say in a very low whisper until he was completely unconscious.
(Gasp) What'll happen next? Oh the suspense! (Laugh) Well, I hope you like this chapter was awesome and I'll post the next chapter as soon as possible. I don't really have a preview to put here. Actually, to be honest, this chapter's not really exciting. So if you'd like, you could skip this chapter.
