Author's note: Alright everybody here we go Chapter 3 is here! Lucas and Riley are in a bit of trouble as they are being followed but don't know it yet. Time to find out who that person is! By the way fare warning, now the violence and language is gonna get turned up a couple of notches so heads up.
Disclaimer: Yeah I'm pretty sure I don't own Girl Meets World, some of the characters are made up.
Lucas checked his phone to make sure he was on time to make sure Riley would be home. It was 8:50, right on schedule. As he was looking on his phone he received a text message from Zay.
Zay: Hey Lucas how was practice?
Lucas: Intense but fun! What's up buddy?
Zay: Well umm…A certain somebody we know MIGHT be here in New York. Keep a look out Lucas!
With this information coming to light Lucas knew there was a possibility that he and Riley could be in danger. The big kid he fought back in Austin, Texas could have gotten a lot better since their fight but then again so did Lucas. As a precaution, Lucas decides to pull Riley close to him like he was her bodyguard and observed his surroundings, nothing was out of the ordinary just a few folks likely coming home from work and the usual teens going home after a good Friday night out.
"Lucas what's going on? This is not like you." Riley said to Lucas as she noticed the change in Lucas' facial expression and his eyes.
"Riley, keep your eyes open and watch your surroundings, we might be getting followed." Lucas leaned into Riley's ear whispering his warning to her.
Riley's heartbeat went faster and faster with the possible danger in sight. Riley has never been in a situation where she has had to defend herself always because Maya was there to back her up and stand up for her. Now it's different Lucas was there and with the way Lucas was holding Riley as he placed his left hand firmly on Riley's waist, she knew danger could be near.
"Lucas, you'll protect me right?" Riley asked nervously.
Lucas looked deep into her eyes, hoping he would not scare her but wanting to tell her the bitter truth as well. "Nobody will touch the princess!" Lucas declared to her trying to make her comfortable. It was their time to get off the station, Lucas and Riley made their way quickly towards the exit trying to look calm but also walking fast as Lucas checked his surroundings scanning the area for any sign of danger. "So far so good!" Lucas thought.
"Where do you think you're goin Friar!" A familiar voice said as Lucas' spine tingled stopping him and Riley dead in their tracks.
Lucas turned around to see his rival from Texas…Joseph Romero but he was not alone, he stood with 3 other boys looking like they're in high school and all of them looked mean and tough. If Lucas got into a fight it would be 3 on 1 but he had to make sure Riley didn't get touched by any of them. Joseph got bigger. He looked like he was at least 6 feet tall and maybe about 215lbs his as he was wearing black jeans, black boots, a red plaid shirt, and leather jacket with a mohawk. His friends were about his height but more muscular than one on the right, had a black shirt with a skull and chains on it and blue jeans. The other was wearing a black t-shirt with a San Antonio Spurs jersey and wearing black sweat pants having a blonde fauxhawk haircut. Lucas knew he couldn't fight all three teens in one shot.
"L…Lucas, what do we do?" Riley asked with fear in her voice as her heart started to beat faster.
Lucas looked at the intimidated Riley and knew she was scared, he knew he had to be strong for her sake and keep her away from danger as much as possible.
"Riley, take my phone, and my bag." Lucas ordered her as he gave her his belongings.
"Well let's see I was gonna walk this lovely young woman home till you and your boys came over, what the fuck are you doing here Joseph?" Lucas said as he took three steps closer towards Joseph and company now being 25 feet apart.
"I can see that! But you got hell to pay for what you did to me back home Lucas! I'll make sure that happens tonight!" Joseph told Lucas as he clinched his fists with rage.
"Hey baby! You wanna see a real man! Maybe you should hang out with us tonight!" One of the Joseph's friends said trying to holler at Riley.
Riley became even more scared, Lucas became even angrier knowing one of Joseph's friends was trying to hit on Riley, she closed up even more and took a couple steps back until she walked back into the wall.
"Lucas, I'm scared" Riley said worrying to Lucas.
"Don't worry, they won't hurt you Riley, I'll make sure of that!" Lucas said trying to re-assure Riley. Sadly deep down Lucas knew that they were in lots of trouble.
"Hey, Eddie, not now besides she's not even in our league! You can do way better than her!" Joseph said calming down the boy on his right with a smirk on his face.
"Shut up! You're lucky Riley's around or I would've taken your knocked you out cold!" Lucas angrily said to Eddie for insulting his princess.
"Tanner, shut him up!" Joseph commanded as the boy on the left side of Joseph began to make his way closer to Lucas to engage in a fight.
"Riley, call the number on my phone now!" Lucas quietly ordered Riley.
Riley simply nodded as her eyes opened wide looking down at Lucas' phone, it was DJ's number. DJ was very talented but she wondered how long would it take to get him to the station. Riley hit the call button, the phone rang three times…
DJ: Hello?
Riley: DJ! It's Riley, Lucas is in trouble we need help!
DJ: Ok I'll come and get some of the boys to help out, where are you guys?
Riley: Bleeker Street! Hurry Lucas is about to fight!
DJ: Hold tight stay on the line we'll be there soon!
Riley did as she was told and was becoming nervous for Lucas knowing how tough he was but she knew he couldn't fight all three at once. Lucas clinched his fists and held it in a fighting stance with his back heel up for speed ready to counter. Tanner was surprisingly fast for a big guy, started punching Lucas but Lucas kept a strong defense until Joseph and Eddie came rushing towards Lucas! Lucas had to begin fighting back but before he threw a punch at Tanner, Eddie gave him a powerful right straight landing on Lucas' nose! "Shit did my nose just break?!" Lucas thought feeling a crack in his nose and the taste of his own blood.
Riley gasped as to how bad Lucas was getting hurt, she saw the blood on Lucas' nose as he was trying to get away with his mouth open trying to breathe. Lucas spat some of his blood at Eddie before going on the offensive as he was throwing punches to anyone that dared moved towards him, "Yo knock him out!" Joseph ordered as he was beginning to lose patience.
"What's wrong Joseph, you and your boys surprised a pretty boy like me can actually take a hit?" Lucas smiled laughing at his enemies' attempts to put down the resilient Lucas. However Lucas was lying, he knew he was badly hurt and was already tired from a long and intense karate practice hoping Joseph and the others didn't notice the fatigue in Lucas' body. There was a standoff for what felt like an eternity but was really 25 seconds. Lucas knew time was running out, he took a quick look at the clock, it was 9:13pm. "Damn, I need to finish this quick" Lucas thought. Lucas took a small step forward keeping his fists beside his face planning on how to beat the odds. But the game changed as Tanner and Eddie began to surround Lucas with Joseph standing in front of Lucas. "Shit, I'm trapped!"
"Leave him alone!" Riley yelled towards the three adversaries.
"And what do you think you're gonna do about it little lady!" Joseph yelled keeping his focus eyes on Lucas' bloodied face.
Riley was more anxious than ever, this was worse than a major test times 100…She knew Lucas was stuck but now she is now in danger putting some attention onto herself trying to buy some time for Lucas to recover.
"Eddie, it's your lucky day, bring Lucas' bitch over here!" Joseph ordered Eddie as Eddie smiled walking over to Riley.
"Don't you dare touch her!" Lucas yelled as her tackled Eddie from behind bringing him down and shortly throwing vicious punches to the side of Eddie's head. Lucas managed to land a few punches knocking Eddie out cold! But payed for it as Joseph kicked Lucas hard in the face!
"LUCAS! NO!" Riley screamed in fear as the tears began to roll down her face fearing for Lucas' safety. Riley folded her hands hoping and praying Lucas is alright, her emotions for him grew stronger as the fight progressed seeing his dedication to protect her as she reflected on Master Dominic's words to her. Lucas really was her knight and shining armor!
Lucas was barely moving! His body was exhausted from all the fighting from practice and now a three on one fight. He was laying face down as blood trickled to the station floor he could only see Riley crying for him, he was in so much pain but remembered his commitment to her that no person would ever hurt his princess.
