Why Not?

Hey,ya'll.This is my second fanfiction so no flames,okay?Wow,I'm so literate,even I know I'm a geek.That's scary.Anyway, I rated this T becuz, well I don't exactly know.I guess violence+language right now.Whatever.I want to bring to your attention a very sad fact:I don't own Degrassi.I know, I know gasp.I already am depressed enough about it, so puh-leeze don't rub salt in the wound.That's enough droning for one chappy;ON TO THE STORY!!

Jimmy Brooks was smart.More than you'd expect.More than the bookish type, he was also very intuitive(lol-did i spell that right?).He knew that something was wrong the first time Marco had been bashed, and he knew this time as well.Jimmy got the call as he walked to The Dot.He looked at the id,and saw it was Marco.Naturally,he answered it.

Why not?He didn't know that Marco was being forced to call him with a knife at his throat.Jimmy didn't know that at the moment, Marco had a cracked rib,and would be hurt much worse before Jimmy could help him.

So Jimmy answered it.Here is the conversation as a witness claims it happened(Marco is in italics):

'Hey, you!'

'H-hi.'

'Whats wrong?You sound like you're about to cry.'

'Uh,no-nothing.I'm just at the park,in the woods behind the public bathrooms and-' Thats as far as he got.Next thing Jimmy heard was a scream.He stopped,rigid.

"Oh God."

Jimmy was off,sideswiping several people in the proscess of getting to the park in time to help his friend.As he found the bashers,he saw a form crumpled on the ground.He only ran faster,dialing 911(He may be smart,but he was also panicked,give him a break!).The dispatcher put him right through to the police.They were on their way.

Thank God.

He reached the bastards, and started shouting and screaming to draw attention to every one of those people that the devil in hell had so obviously claimed.Luckily the thugs ran as they heard him,leaving Marco behind.Jimmy saw Marco,and tenderly lifted the small boy's broken body in his arms.Crying, Jimmy carried Marco to the edge of the woods.Overcome by ambulance workers,he surrendered the only thing keeping Jimmy from completely breaking down.

He rode in the ambulance,next to his best friend,all the while praying to God that Marco would be alright.

Oh,Lord!Marco is the nicest person that has ever lived,let him be alright.Let him be alright!
