Chapter 20:

"Man, you look bad." Finn said "Look, you can't die or anything okay ? Since we were kids it's always been you and I and now you're not here. Well, you're here but I don't even know if you can hear me or even feel I'm here." Finn was rambling. Kurt in danger and Finn was here, rambling to a comatose man. Puck wanted to scream, he wanted to yell at Finn to make him run after Kurt but his body would not obey.

"We've always done everything together. Remember when we went to the hairdresser and asked for Mohawks ? I looked like an idiot and I was jealous because you looked like a real badass. And at school, when everyone was laughing at me because I looked like a clown you sent them all to hell. I never thanked you for that, but yeah, thank you it was nice." Puck smiled internally at that memory, Finn really looked ridiculous with a Mohawk. But he had done that because Puck didn't want t be the only one to try it so Finn had been nice too.

" I feel stupid talking to you, I'm sure you can't hear me. Or maybe it's like when we were playing like we were stuck in another dimension. You know, we acted liked we couldn't hear your mother talking to us because we were seeing something else, it pissed her off every time, that was awesome. So maybe it's that. Or maybe, you're really stuck in another dimension and can't answer me. I don't know. If it's that you can blink or squeeze my hand to show you hear me." Finn said holding Puck's hand, but Puck still couldn't move. Finn paused for a while.

"Look, I don't know what to think of all these things between you and Kurt. I don't know if you're sincere or playing with him, but Kurt is sincere. He's been crying ever since I told him what happened to you, claiming it was his fault. So, as I said, I don't know if you're sincere since you're not even gay, but I really hope you are. And if you don't wake up for me do it for Kurt. I promised Burt I'd look after Kurt and give hell to anyone who dares hurting him, and now he's hurting. You just started dating, or something, and he's already crying his eyes out, and it will be a lot worse if you die. So, I know you've had surgery and maybe it hurts but Kurt hurts more and if you die right now, I swear I'll kill you man. You can't do that or Kurt will be alone again."

Puck was fed up with all of that. He didn't want to hear all these things about Kurt crying, he wanted to wake up to tell Finn to run after Kurt. Puck had no idea how long Kurt had been gone maybe half an hour. Karofsky and his freaks had the time to find him in half an hour. They had the time to do so many things in half an hour. Rage took over Puck's body as terrible images of Kurt being raped in an alley formed in his head. He tried to gather all the strength the rage gave him and squeezed Finn's hand the tightest he could.

Finn felt a sudden pain in his hand as Puck squeezed it hard.

"Dude ? Puck you're awake ?" He asked as he scanned Puck's face for some kind of reaction. He saw his lips moving as his friend tried to say something. Finn leaned over Puck to place his ear at the level of Puck's mouth. "Talk to me." He said.

"Kurt." Puck muttered.

"Kurt is not here, it's me, Finn." Finn said.

"Kurt's in danger." Puck managed to say.

"No, he's gone home he's safe." Finn said to reassure his friend.

"He's in danger, run after him." Puck muttered, Finn could hear that Puck had barely no strength to talk and then it hit him. It was Finn who drove Kurt to the hospital so his brother was going home walking. "Kurt's in danger." Puck muttered again. Finn was panic stricken.

"I'm going after him Puck. They won't touch him." He said as he ran out of the room. He saw a nurse and ran to her. "Noah Puckerman is waking up."He told her before running through the hospital which seemed too big suddenly. When he was finally outside he spotted his car in the parking lot and hopped into it. Panic made him shake and he had a hard time starting the ignition. When he did he drove through the parking lot as fast as he could and was soon driving the way home looking around to spot Kurt walking on the sidewalk.

But it was not Kurt he spotted. It was a letterman jacket pushing something in an alley. He stopped the car, not giving a damn that he was in the middle of the street and took his mobile to call 911.

"911, what is your problem ?" A woman asked.

"My brother is being attacked." He said. "He's in an alley at the corner of Columbus and Lincoln st." He said as fast as he could.

"What's your name ?" The woman asked.

"Finn Hudson. Come quick please." He said before hanging up and storming outside the car, running to where he had just seen Karofsky.

"You didn't obey to me Kurt. What I asked from you was easy wasn't it ?" Finn heard.

"I'll never obey you !" Kurt shouted. "Help ! Someone help me !" He yelled.

"Gag him." Karofsky said. "In fact, it's not a problem that you did what I had told you not to. Now I'm gonna do something I've been craving to do for years so I'm kinda happy. Pull down your pants." He instructed Kurt. Finn was outraged, he entered the alley and found Karofsky and three other men forming circle around a gagged Kurt.

"I'm gonna kill you Karofsky." Finn shouted.

"That's what Puckerman said and look who's almost dead now." Karofsky said. Finn went to him and punched him in the jaw as hard as he could. Two of the men went to hold him back as the last one was holding Kurt who was struggling to get free. Karofsky spat blood on the floor.

"You fuckin' asshole ! How can you do that to him ?" Finn shouted.

"The way he's always been walking, he is begging to be fucked so I'm giving him what he wants." Karofsky said walking closer to Kurt and pulling down his pants. Kurt was crying trying to break free, kicking everywhere he could.

"He doesn't want to be fucked by you ! But I'm sure he'd be glad to be fucked by Puck" Finn shouted, trying to distract Karofsky's attention from Kurt.

"Puckerman is almost dead so it doesn't matter." Karofsky said.

"Really ? And how do you think I knew Kurt was in danger right now ?" Finn asked. He knew he would probably get the same as Puck but he didn't care as long as Kurt wasn't raped. And what was the police doing ?

"Shut the fuck up Hudson !" Karofsky yelled as he unbuttoned his own jeans.

"I won't shut up unless you release my brother ! You freaks are four against one cowards !" Finn shouted again.

"Oh but everyone will have a ride don't worry Hudson." Karofsky said and the other men chuckled. All of a sudden there were lights and sirens. One second later four cops were here and arrested the men who tried to flee.

"Finn Hudson ?" One of them asked.

"Yes it's me." Finn said walking towards Kurt as one of he cops arrested Karofsky.

"Can you come with me ?" The cop asked. Both boys nodded although Kurt was crying and shaking in fear of what could have happened. " I need your name kid." The policeman told Kurt.

"Kurt Hummel." He said his voice quivering.

"You did great son." The man told Finn. "We've been looking for these men since yesterday, they attacked a young man." He said.

"Puck !" Kurt shouted. "He's alone !"

"He's fine Kurt, he awoke and told me you were in danger that's why I came." Finn explained.

"You know him ?" The policeman asked.

"Yes but it's a very long story." Finn said as he saw that Kurt looked exhausted.

A/N: I'm really sorry for the late update. I have a friend at home and I can't find time to write when she's here... But I managed to write this chapter in like two hours so I'm proud of myself !

I don't know when I'll update next chapter but it won't be long. There will be one or two more chapters in this story.

I have news for those of you who followed Time to leave, I had an idea last night for the sequel I said I'd write, and if I follow this idea it will be a multi-chapters sequel.

That's all I had to say.

I love you all and thank you for your reviews you're really really great.

Ant.
