It didn’t seem possible for it to happen, and yet Mallory could barely even figure out what was going on in her own head. Her brain was rattling within her skull, as her eyes struggled to stay open. She felt so weak, like her entire body was heavy; were Reckley and then bullies still after them?<br/><br/>“Mmm...”  She groaned, trying to move to get to her feet, yet all she could do was barely sit up by the strength of her hands. Struggling, Mallory grit her teeth, as the pain of her headache still ached, throbbed along her skull. A hand came to clutch at her face, eyes struggling to adjust to her vision; was it normal to be this wobbly?<br/><br/>“I-I don’t...”  Her brain was struggling to piece everything together, to remove what exactly happened, how it happened. Her breath was heavy within her chest, and as she looked to Kevin, her eyes caught sight of her reflection within the cracked windows of the school building behind him.<br/><br/>Sporadic and flashing, her brown eyes were being overtaken by a sickly crimson color.<br/><br/>“S-stay back!  Her warning was loud enough for Kevin to hear, but is was cautionary; it was as if she was saying it to herself. What she had done, what she did, somehow she had done something that no human could possibly do. As weak as she was, Mallory did her best move away; Reckley and the bullies were evil, they had hurt Kevin, battered and bloodied him.<br/><br/>They were going to hurt her, and the look in Reckley’s eyes, it was something unlike she had ever seen. It shook her to her very center, and she hadn’t felt fear like that, ever.<br/><br/>What she had done though, whatever it was, she didn’t want it to hurt her best friend, the one person she really cared for.<br/><br/>Her breaths came fast as her chest heaved, looking away from Kevin, covering her eyes from him. Was she a danger to the people around her? What would happen if her Aunt found out about this?<br/><br/>...What did Kevin think?<br/><br/>“Don’t... don’t come any closer.”  Her voice was nearly broken, as tears welled up within her eyes. Why, why was all of this happening? “I don’t... want to hurt you, Kevin.”
