"Really?" I ask Kris
"Really. I would trust you with an animal." we just stood there look at each other but my shyness got the best of me and I look away trying to hide my face from him but I think this is the first time I've really looked at him this well, that Dark brown mane, the well toned muscles and the fact that he's really tall, and he acts like a brother to me
"Yo, earth to Fluttershy, do you read, over?"
"Huh, what?"
"So she lives. What happened to you, we were talking and you kinda zoned out and just stared at me."
"Oh ..... sorry." I feel my face heating up as he continues to look at me. He then looks around and starts walking to a sign that says 'Cadman Plaza W'
"Well then, looks like we still have a while to get to a Base point here in the city."
"Where are we walking to?"
"Me and my friends Base point at Verrazano-Narrows Bridge just a few miles away, it should only take us about an hour or 2, if we don't take any detours then well be fine." we start walking down the street and after a few minutes he stops and looks to the building to our right and a shocked expression hits his face and he runs towards me
"GET DOWN!" and he tackles me to the ground but turning so I won't hit the ground. We crawl to a small stone wall and sit up against it. He puts his head up to try and get a look 'BANG'. He pulled his head back down the second he heard the shot hit the stone wall
"Shit, there's a Sniper on the roof of that building." he points behind the stone wall towards the building we were look at earlier
"He has us pined." he moves around me and presses back against the stone wall and looks down the road that leads to the building
"Okay, there's some cover down the road." he motions me to look down the road
"Do you see that yellow car?" I look down the road and saw the yellow car a few feet from the stone wall and nodded
"I need you to run to it, and stay low and don't stop till you reach the car, I'll cover you." I try to gain as much courage as I possibly can to not scream. I look at Kris who says
"Can you run to that car?" I look back at the car, and then back to him and nod my head
"When I say run, I want you to run to the car while I try to keep the sights off you, ok?" I nod my head and look back to the car and wait for his signal for me to run
"Run." he and I pop out from behind the stone wall and run to the car but he stopped to fire his weapon at the person on the roof to try and cover me and then I hear
'BANG'
"AAHHH!" I scream when I hit the ground behind the car. Pain, lots of pain is shooting up my leg. I look down at my leg to see that I was hit. Kris ran over and slid to help up and lean me against the car
"Hey, Fluttershy, I want you to look at me ok, just keep looking at me, and don't take your eyes off me ok?" I was doing as he said, but my vision is blurred by my tears from the pain shooting up my leg
"This is going to hurt ok? I'm going to have to pour some rubbing alcohol to keep this graze from getting infected, this is going to burn." he pulls out a bottle of clear liquid and takes off the cap and pours it on the wound. I flinch in pain as I feel the liquid takes affect on the wound, He then proceeds to search through his backpack looking for something else. He pulls out a torn shirt and cuts a strip of it off and then wraps it around my wound tight. By now I was starting to feel very tired and could barely keep my eyes open
"Hey Fluttershy, stay awake for me kid. Don't close your eyes ok? I want to see your pretty teal eyes ok? Won't you let me see your, teal eyes?" that last part made me force my eyes to stay open and stay looking into his green eyes, his beautiful emerald green eyes. Everything is fading to black. Am I dying?
~~~~~~~~~~~ Unknown amount of time ~~~~~~~~~~~
"FLUTTERSHY WAKE UP!" I sat up with a jolt and looked to my left to see Kris in the bed beside the one I'm in. I rub my head and look down at my leg, its wrapped in bandages and most of the pain is gone. I look over to Kris who has bandages on his arm and shoulder and some form of wrap on his right foot.
"What happened to you?" I ask getting an small laugh from Kris
"It's a long story."
Author's Note
Sorry this chapter is short but I thought this would be a good place to stop the Flutter POV and get the rest of what happened will be in Kris' POV so stay tuned to see what happens next, so next is a few fight scenes and the group finds them
