last time:
The creature moved in again, and the girl knew they wouldn't be able to move out of the way in time. She wanted to close her eyes, but couldn't and now she had to watch as the creature moved in for the kill.
For the second time that day, Mandy could see her life flashing before her eyes. Her heart really couldn't take much, and this was the drop. She was sure that this time it really was over.
She screamed as she felt a sharp pain in her left shoulder. hot thick liquid traveled down her arm and she sank through her knees with a groan. She clutched her shoulder and closed her eyes tightly in pain. When she reopened them she was looking up at the creature. Finally realizing what it was. ''Kha'zix...'' she mumbled.
The creature merely stared at her. It made no movements to attack her anymore. ''your body is weak, wimp'' the voice in her head said. ''Katarina...'' Mandy mumbled. She did not know why they were here, and she didn't care. She was so light headed. She just wanted to sleep... She fell down onto the ground and blacked out even before her head hit the ground.
…
…
voices
She heard voices
''possible coma... blood loss'' She could only hear small parts of sentences.
A door closed.
She opened her eyes a tiny bit, but instantly closed them as bright light hit them. The light was moved away, and she slowly opened her eyes again. Her eyes adjusted quickly. Where was she? The ceiling was white, she could see that much through her half opened eyes. Moving them around the room, she found out that everything was white.
The only thing hat wasn't white was a figure sitting by the bed. He did not seem to have noticed her waking up, for he was staring at a piece of paper in his hand. She moved to rub her eyes, but stopped as she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. The pain triggered her memory. That's right... Last night... She met Kha'zix and Katarina. But how? They were supposed to be fictional.
Finally the boy seemed to notice her. ''You're awake'' he mumbled before setting the piee of paper on the dresser. She simply nodded, not sure what to say or do. ''I'm sure you must want an explanation'' She nodded again. She examined the boy. She did recognize him. She has seen him a couple times at her school. He was one of the seniors in his last year. She just couldn't recall his name. He had spiky black hair and brown eyes. He was quite well build too. Not extreme muscle, but you could see he was no pushover.
He rubbed his chin. ''I think it is best if we talk about this at some other place'' he mumbled as he rubbed his chin. ''The doctor said you could leave, but you shouldn't strain your shoulder too much'' She nodded again. he chuckled. ''is that the only thing you can do?'' Mandy thought about it and then shook her head as a 'no'.
He held out a hand and she took it with her good arm. He helped her out of the bed. The girl looked down at herself. Her entire left arm and shoulder were bandaged. She wore a white shirt instead of her own. She looked at the man and sighed. ''Let's just go. I don't want to stay here any longer''
Just as she said that the door burst open and her father stormed in. ''Mandy!'' he said almost angrily. ''what in the world has happened to you?!'' he nearly yelled. The female cringed at his tone. Even though she loved him, she was almost afraid of him when he was angry. He was 60 years old with black extremely short hair. For someone that was so old he had quite some muscle on his arms.
''Dad I... I can explain'' she mumbled. He nodded frantically. ''yes yes. But let's get you home first, honey. We'll talk there and... who's this?'' he turned to the man. The boy looked at Mandy before speaking. ''My name is Jim, sir. I was the one who took her to the hospital'' Her father nodded and smiled slightly. ''well then you are coming with us. Here, let me help you'' with the help of her father and Jim, Mandy managed to get out of the bed and into the car.
When they arrived home she was helped out of the car by her father and he brought her inside bridal style. He placed her down on the couch as Jim and her father sat on the chairs. ''now... if one of you could please explain'' her father started.
Jim cleared his throat as he leaned forward. ''well you see. There was this girl in Mandy's class that challenged her to go into the school at night. She bribed her by taking her laptop. She went in but when she went down a flight of stairs she fell down and fell on top of metal, which cut her arm'' he explained. It seemed like a believable story. There was a small construction going on in the school, so that would explain the metal. How he knew about Jessica she did not know, but she was glad he did.
''that little wench'' her father mumbled, not even asking why Jim would be there at such a late hour. ''I'm just glad that you are alright, Mandy. But Jessica will hear about this. As will the school. I am taking you off of it. That school is nothing for you'' he said. He had always urged her to stay in class and get good grades, but this changed his opinion. ''I should have listened to you. You didn't like the teachers or your classmates'' he mumbled to himself. ''it's fine, dad...''.
Jim looked at Mandy, a sense of urgency in his eyes. ''Father, I am going upstairs to rest'' she said. Jim stood up. ''I'll stay with you'' her father nodded. ''alright. If you need anything just call me''
Once upstairs, Mandy laid down on the bed, completely exhausted. ''speak'' she demanded. Jim sat down on the only chair in her room. ''where should I start?'' he said nervously to himself as he combed a hand through his short hair. ''What am I?'' she suggested.
Jim took a deep breath and looked at her worriedly. ''I'm sure you must have heard of the game, League of Legends. Well it seems that all of the champions in the game have come here and imbedded themselves into newborn children. Us... I don't know much, but I do know that. I'm pretty sure that you have Katarina inside of you, and by the looks of it, she had only awakened recently''
''and then I am guessing you must be Kha'zix?'' it was more of a statement than a question. He nodded solemnly. A few moments of silence passed as both of them were lost in thought. ''why didn't I die back then? I was sure he was going to take me...'' she mumbled to herself. Jim looked up. ''I managed to take control long enough to misdirect the attack so It only got your shoulder. Believe me, he was aiming for your heart'' another moment of silence.
''I am sorry for what I did to you'' he mumbled. Mandy looked up surprised. ''Kha'zix and I don't entirely agree on things yet. I can't control him and at night, when he is the strongest, he takes over for some 'free time' as he calls it'' he squeezed his fists. ''You shouldn't blame yourself. I was stupid enough to get bribed by that bitch Jessica'' she smiled at Jim as she sat up. ''I don't blame you. In fact, I am quite impressed. At least now my life won't be as boring anymore'' she mumbled the last part. He chuckled and agreed.
She could hear footsteps on the stairs and soon her father came in. ''Mandy, I have a letter for you. And Jim... I don't know how but I think this is yours'' he said as he passed a letter to each of them. She looked it over. it said: Legend High on the front. They both raised an eyebrow and looked at each other. Then they opened the letter and read it:
Greetings Summoner,
We have been informed that there had been an accident near your town and that you two hold one of the champions of the league of legends. Hereby we would like to inform you that you have been invited to stay at the league high, a school for people like you. We have arranged everything for you departure and we expect you shortly. There will be a warm welcome waiting for you at our school.
''Well that was a good explanation'' she mumbled sarcastically. She saw that a plane ticket was attached to the letter. She looked up at Jim. ''what do you think?'' ''I think we should give it a try...''
