Chapter 3: _ Power Struggles
The bleeding did stop.
"It won't last for long." Said, one of the elves to me.
I could finally breathe freely now. The noise had decreased too. People were still out of their houses, murmuring and discussing.
Suddenly, "Isleen? Isleen?!" I heard Kylo's voice reverberating from behind me.
The injured girl had regained consciousness but was still immobile. I turned to find Kylo. "Over here!" I waved my hands, still kneeling beside the girl.
Kylo heard me and hurried to me. His brawny chest was bloody, his pants torn. "God! I almost ran nuts searching for you!" He blurted as he neared me.
The elves stood up and left. Kylo's gaze followed them until he got to me and embraced me.
"Who is she?" He questioned, reeking of the metallic tang of blood.
"One of the girls at the restaurant," I explained.
Kylo wore a stunned countenance as he asked, "Thought she was dead."
"Hmm, hmm. Her friend died and she was injured." I elucidated.
