I turn to the stage to see Mira looking around, she looks as scared and as confused as I am right now. And as much as I don't like the girl, it wouldn't be right for me to leave her here like this. So I move quickly over to the stage and jump up. Without hesitation I have my hand wrapped around Mira's arm and I'm telling her to run with me. She tries to pull back from me but I won't let her. I need to get her out of here. Looking down from the stage, the place looks like it's gone to hell. People are fighting, horrified screams are filling the bar. I've never seen anything like this in my life. Turning back to Mira I pull her close and tell her, "no matter what happens. Just stay close to me and do not stop running. We need to get out of here NOW!" She just nods and takes a step towards me. Good, she does know how to follow orders.

 

We jump down from the stage and are immediately met with people trying to grab us. They look like they just had a blood bath, Everyone is completely covered. The ones I can see running towards the door don't look any better anymore. But they are the least of my worries right now. Now all I can see is blood and teeth coming right at us. NO not tonight! NOT on my watch you don't! No one is going to be attacking, biting, either of us. I hold Mira's arm tighter and pull her close to me as I'm pushing my way through people still fighting. In front of me I see someone coming right at us. This guy looks like death, my head is screaming "not today death" and before I can think about my next move, I already have my hand in the air, curled into a fist ready for this fucker to get closer to me. As soon as he is, I bring my hand forward with such a force, I hit him right on the end of his nose, and watch as he falls back onto his ass. "And stay there!" I scream at him as I drag Mira past him.

 

We finally make it to the door. I take a split second to look down to my left. Poor CJ. His body is laying to the side, he's all mangled up. If I didn't know better I would say he just got attacked by a lion. There's parts of him missing, and the rest of him has gaping holes. The blood though, he must have bleed out, he's laying in the biggest puddle I've ever seen.

 

Glancing back I see Mira, she has a look of pure horror on her face and I remember I'm trying to get her out of there. I don't say a word to her, but I pull her with me down the step and out of the door. We're running down the street now, I can see Jim off in the distance still chasing after the local girl. It takes everything I have not to call out to him. I think that girl might need his help more than I do right now. I hear Mira behind me, she's screaming the name of her hotel. Thankfully that's only a block away. So I just keep running. My feet are literally burning, but stopping is not an option.

 

Finally we make it to her hotel. I need to make sure she gets to her room safe, so we head up to the pent house. I don't even have it in me to be disgusted with this girl for the snob she turned into, right now. Eventually we make it to her room and I follow her in. As soon as we are through the door she is thanking me for getting her there safe. I just look at her while she's talking, she still looks terrified, then again so am I. I don't want to go back out there and when she offers me her couch for the night I almost bite her hand off myself.

 

With a smile to her I turn and walk over to the couch. Sitting down and finally taking my boots off. Oh my feet feel like they are getting an instant massage. As I lay myself down, my head is spinning from what I saw, CJ, poor CJ was an ass but he didn't deserve that. Then Jim. I can only hope he caught up to the local girl and has gotten her home safe. I will call him when I wake and check in on him.
