AN: So, some may think this is a bit out of character but I kind of like the idea of Kurt standing up for himself and the prompt only helped inspired that. I hope you enjoy it.

Prompt: Josh - "Come quick, he's getting his ass kicked by a girl" -'The West Wing'

As I wasn't really listening to what Quinn was saying, I could only hope I was nodding in the appropriate places. I knew she was going on about the prom elections but then that was all she seemed to want to talk about lately. Being prom queen definitely meant more to Quinn then getting elected king did to me.

In the distance I could here the shout of 'fight, fight, fight,' and wondered briefly who was involved. It wasn't until someone shouted, 'Hey everyone, Azimio's getting beat up by a girl' that it really caught my attention.

"We'll talk later," I told Quinn, turning to follow the crowd heading for the fight. As much crap as Azimio had given me, seeing him get beat up by anyone would be worth it.

As I approached the gathered crowd, I was fully expecting Santana to be involved if indeed a girl was involved. Looking over the gathered heads though I was surprised by who was actually involved. It wasn't actually a girl punching Azimio repeatedly but my stepbrother.

Working my way through the crowd, I reached them. Grabbing Kurt's jacket I pulled him away from Azimio.

"Hey Kurt, it's just me. It's Finn," I said when he started struggling against me. Whatever had transpired I could tell by the tears on Kurt's face that it had upset him, though the fact that he had actually gone after Azimio had already clued me into that.

"The kid is crazy. He just started swinging at me for no reason," Azimio exclaimed, still on the ground and already sporting some bruises on his face.

"Liar," Kurt spat out at him, tugging against the hold I had on him. "You can say what you want about me but don't talk like that about my mother."

"What's wrong fairy boy, can't handle the truth," Azimio taunted, trying to act tough again as he was on his feet, though he did take another step away from us as Kurt tried to break free again.

"Okay, knock it off," came Mr. Schue's voice from behind me. "Why don't the three of us continue this down in the principal's office," he said, motioning in that direction.

Though Mr. Schue hadn't included me, I followed anyways. I wasn't about to let my stepbrother face this alone.

In Figgins' office, no one questioned my presence as I stood behind Kurt's chair. Figgins listened to both versions of what had transpired without commenting too much until Kurt mentioned Azimio saying something about his mother which had set him off.

"And what did Mr. Azimio say?" Figgins asked.

"He said that my mother didn't die in an accident but that she killed herself because she didn't want to deal with having a gay son."

At that moment I wanted to hit Azimio too. How heartless could the guy get? I didn't blame Kurt at all for going after him and I could only hope Figgins and Burt would see things that way too as I hated to think of Kurt getting punished because of this incident.
