I opened my eyes groggily; I stared on ceiling I didn't know. I glanced around there was no one in this room and this room doesn't seem like a room in hospital. This room had no windows; I tried to sit up, to find that I was cuffed to the bed, had someone kidnapped me. I tried to remember things from earlier, I was walking from school to home with Alex, my friend when suddenly someone attacked us .

The thought of Alex being injured snapped me back to reality. Many questions appeared in my mind what if Alex was injured? Was he alright? I suddenly remembered that I was thrown aside by Alex when we were being attacked that means that he took the full brunt of the attack but still I have no wound or injury. Then wherever he is Alex must be injured I need to find him out. I vigorously tried to break the cuffs with no result. Since when I was here in this room, I looked around trying to find something to break this cuff.

I tried to pull out my arm by pulling it out and lacerations appeared on my hand. My master had taught me that when we are in difficult situation we have to injure ourselves sometimes to get out of a dangerous situation and I know what I need to do to get out of the cuffs. I closed and silently prayed for a second and then broke my thumb from the joint. I grunted and slowly took out my hand, when I suddenly heard footsteps OH NO! Not now, I quickly lied down and inserted my hand in the cuff. Someone entered the room, no it was three people, someone held my non-cuffed hand like checking my pulse, and no one can know that I am awake. I slowed down my heart enough that it would seem that I was still sleeping instead I was planning on how I would attack each of them. I peeked around the positions of the men standing one was just right to my bad and one was just near my feet. It's as if I am caged. I just planned to attack them when some more people entered Tch! This looks difficult now and with my right hand injured, it will become more difficult.

A man spoke, the man had a husky voice

"Young master you didn't have to come here we took care of her"

"Then why is she cuffed" Said a young man as it seemed from the voice.

Wait a sec I have heard this voice before, but where, I think it's...its Alex voice. Alex but why was he addressed as a young master and if it is Alex than he is alright.

"Sorry young master, but we can't take a chance what if she awoke, you know she can easily take us three out so we were cautious" said someone from my left

"I understand but now I am here she won't do anything" said Alex, someone moved and freed my right hand. Someone held it before it touched the ground.

"How did she get these lacerations and her thumb joint is broke," asked Alex as expected of Alex he found me out.

"Huh! But this was not here earlier, how did it appear here" said the man who earlier holding my hand but now was analyzing my wound.

"Is it possible that she woke up earlier and tried to get out but she lost consciousness due to the shifting of her thumb joint?" concluded the doctor

"It is possible but don't you think that with her that is impossible that she will pass out because of dislocating her thumb joint" Alex scoffed and said

"You are right young master, this girl will just not pass out because of this small injury something else must have happened" said the one with husky voice

"but who else will injure her like this , we never saw someone entering or leaving " said the one man standing beside my foot , I prayed for them to not reach the conclusion that I was the one who did it and that I am awake now .

"Enough whatever it is we will find out later, for now we have to take her home, her mother would be worried for her now." said Alex sharply and angrily, why was he angry and what has truly happened.

"Ok young master" everyone replied , someone took me up in arms , guess it was Alex as all others suddenly shot up and asked that they can carry her why was Alex taking such a great pain , and to them Alex answered

"She is precious to me and I won't let anyone other than me to touch her."

well I was precious to Alex after all I was his best friend. Thinking this I missed Bess, if she were here she would have made fun of how Alex spoke this line, I told my heart again that there is no hidden meaning in this line. Wait a sec how is Alex able to carry me if I remember correctly he was injured heavily. Ugh! I don't understand at all, but I can't exactly come out now and ask him for the answers because something tells me that he won't be truly forthcoming. We entered a car and sat there he still wasn't letting me instead I was still in arms. I was still confused as to what happened when I suddenly felt him bent towards me and said in a trembling voice

"I am so sorry I was not able to protect you , I am so sorry " from where I see it he did protect me , but who attacked me that thing still haunts me , will I be safe out again , I need to prepare myself for in the future .

"But don't worry now I will protect you from now on" said Alex on the verge of crying. I wanted so much to comfort him but was in dilemma, before I could do anything; he suddenly asked "will she remember everything"

"Of course not young master, we took care of everything" said someone, why are they trying to erase my memory, trying to keep me in the dark are they, even though they failed very hardly. Even though Alex is so smart sometimes, he becomes so dumb.

The car stopped, before exiting Alex asked someone

"Call James here and ask him to come ASAP, also clear the miasma around this area, if she breaths it her wound may open up again after she was attacked by a demon"

What the hell demons, miasma is he crazy, what is he talking about. I think his mind was damaged seriously in the earlier attacked.

"Ok, young master "Said everyone present in the car together. Why were they not correcting Alex? He must be critically ill maybe that's why they are agreeing with him

I noted in my mind to search for this later and also if he may have any problem.
