"Chazz, Slade is very much alive, just because you threw him off a cliff doesn't mean he's dead!" Bastion said calmly. Chazz looked at him, unbelieving.

"What..?"

Before Jaden or Bastion could say anything, a voice came out of nowhere, saying, "Yes Chazz, I am still very much alive."

Chapter 6: He is alive.

Chazz turned around slowly to come face to face with Slade. Jaden and Bastion stepped back as he stepped out of the bushes, smirking.

"What the hell are you doing still alive?" Chazz shouted as Slade walked over toward him. With one quick movement, Chazz was on the ground and Slade had his hand wrapped around his throat.

"You honestly think that that's going to rid you of me?" Slade said amused, almost in a laugh. "Don't be so foolish. Chazz, you should know that a little fall like that can't kill me." He slammed his foot into Chazz's stomach, making Chazz choke up blood. Chazz put his hands on Slade's hand as it crushed his throat. His injured arm burst with pain as it moved.

"Well Slade, what are you waiting for? Finish me. Aren't you going to?" Chazz asked, almost whispering. Yet, it was enough for Slade to hear him. Slade pulled him up to his feet and slammed him against a nearby tree.

"Chazz, face it, you are in no position to fight. Don't you think you would have died by now if that was my intention from the start?" Slade asked, smirking.

"Don't know, you're pretty weak." Chazz said, coughing up blood after Slade kicked him in the gut. He looked at his brother. "You're trying your hardest and I haven't gone unconscious during the battle yet. Have I?" Slade threw him onto the ground hard. Chazz got up slowly and turned to face his older brother.

"You're in no position for little jokes Chazz," Slade said pulling out a knife from his jacket. "Now, will you listen, or shall I end you?" He put his hand around Chazz's throat and raised the knife. "Well?" Chazz just smirked. Seconds later Jaden and Bastion had pulled the man off of Chazz and started punching him.

"Jaden," Bastion said. "Go get Chancellor Shepard." Jaden nodded and slowly and, using his crutches headed out toward the academy as fast as he could. Chazz got up wearily, clutching his stomach. Chazz looked up to see that Bastion had hit Slade in the jaw a second time. Slade turned around and plunged the knife into Bastions side. He retracted it and kicked Bastion in the chest. Bastion fell limp after this and collapsed on the ground. Chazz walked toward his brother. In a last-effort attempt, he ran toward Slade and kicked him between the legs.

"You little bitch!" Slade yelled at him before thrusting the knife threw Chazz's Chest. (Right side.) He gasped for breath as the knife went all the way through. Slade grabbed him by the shirt before he fell. "If you survive this Chazz," Slade said, pulling out the knife. "And you still want to save your girlfriend." A smirk broke his lips as he noticed that Chazz wasn't moving. "Meet Jagger and me by the abandoned dorms tonight at midnight." With that, he let the 16-year old boy fall to the ground.

Chazz didn't move after he fell, he just laid there, slowly falling unconscious, his eyes already closed. 'Alexis,' he thought, before coughing up blood, his only sign of life. 'I swear, that I'll save you from them. I promise…. Alexis.' Slades presence had vanished and there was motion in the bushes. He didn't move. Everything darkened and soon, there was all black.

Chancellor Shepard stood over the unconscious boy. Bastion was taken to the Nurses office, soon to be transported onto the mainland along with Chazz. As medical people took away the unconscious boy, Shepard could sense that Chazz wanted to stay at the island. He couldn't let Chazz stay. They would be transported to the mainland the following day, along with Zane. Even though Zane was recovering, he still needed to be checked on to see if the shooting had done any permanent damage.

Five hours later, when Chazz awoke, it was 10:30, he needed to get to the abandoned dorms, he was going. Whether anyone liked it or not. He sat up in the bed he was in. A sharp pain came to his chest when he did. It was then when he noticed that his shirt was off and bandages were wrapped tightly around his chest. His arm was still in the sling.

He remembered what Slade had done and said. He got off the bed and made his way to the door. For some reason, he found it hard to walk. He had grabbed his blood-soaked blazer and put it on. He exited the building and headed toward the abandoned dorms.

He never noticed the figure who watched him leave. The whole time they just had one thing in mind. "What are you doing Chazz?"

What did you think? Oh and sorry that I haven't updated in a long time. (Computer broke down and had to get a new one. The ones I use are expensive.)
