*~*Teen Life*~*

Alexis managed to just about dodge it. "Who are you and what do you want?" She asked the guy.

Koby ended up lying down in her hands, his wound bleeding an aweful lot.

Lilly rested her finger against the wound gently to try and stop the bleeding, lYou'll be okay," she comforted gently, "You'll be just fine."

Within moments, another guy shoved a knife through Alexis' back from behind, growling in her ear, "You pathetic monsters dead."

"No you are." She pulled the knife out and she jammed it into his heart.

Within moments the hunter dropped down dead, the other one having fled as soon as he could when Alexis had showed up.

Down the stairs, just outside the house, hunter were wrestling Zane down to the ground. Trying to kill him.

Zane so far was staying alive, but he was slowly weakening.

Lilly had headed down the stairs with Koby in her hand to get a first aid kit and froze when she saw he hunters hurting Zane. Closing her eyes and trying to change the weather to help Zane though she was top concerned with making sure Koby stayed awake to really help.

The hunters continued to hurt Zane, trying to stab him.

"You're hurt," Daniel frowned when he saw Alexis, sliding an arm around her gently. "Let's get you fixed up."

"I'm fine I have to check on my sister."
_____

Koby mouse made a squeaking noise to show that he was in pain and he watched as Zane was stabbed to death.

Lilly flinched at the sight and looked away, whispering gently to Koby, "Can you shift human? I know your hurting, sweetie, but I can't stitch you up when you're an adorable mouse."

----
"You're hurt, Alexis,"

"I don't care, it will heal soon, anyway my family is more important than myself."
____

Koby nodded and he moved to jump off her hands, and shifted human in mid air.

The instant his feet touched the ground Lilly slid her arms around him so he could lean against her, glancing around the kitchen briefly and sighing in relief at seeing a chair not too far away. "You'll be okay, handsome."

----
"And your important to me. Rest."

Koby nodded.
____

"Please just let me do a headcount."

"I'll check on everyone for you. You rest."

---
Lilly led him to a chair and sat him down, grabbing a first aid kit and cleaning him up silently.

"Fine just let me check on Hannah, then I will rest I promise." She headed to Hannah's room and found her cowering under her bed as a puppy.
____

Koby stayed still so she could stitch him up.

Daniel let out a deep sigh.

----
When she stitched him up, Lilly rested her hand gently on his cheek and whispered, "I need to see if Zane is still alive... I'll be back soon, sweetie, just rest." she told him, leaning forward to kiss his forehead before jogging outside and sighing at the fact the hunters had gone. Crouching beside Zane and brushing his hair off his face, "Come on you idiot, be alive. Thought we could be friends, we can't be friends if your dead... We were starting to be friends.."

(( Maybe he's not dead just yet? Maybe he's still in the process of dying? I don't like the idea of people dying alone haha )))

((ok...))
____

"Thought you would be with your precise boyfriend?" He whispered.
____

Alexis moved to sit on the stairs and she meant against the wall pressing her hands to her wound.

"I've cleaned him up, made sure he's okay. We were becoming friends, and you're in pretty bad shape." Lilly whispered, "Come on, lets get you inside. Clean you up and you'll be just fine too." she assured gently, sliding an arm around his shoulders and sitting him up. Supporting his weight for him.

---
"Everyone's okay." Daniel told her, sitting beside her a few minutes later, "Well, everyone but Zane and Koby. Koby is hurt like you but Lilly has already stitched him up, I didn't want to intrude by going outside and seeing how Zane was but he doesn't seem good at all."

"The only one who can help...me...is your....your boyfriend." Zane told her.
____

"Koby is going to enjoy that then."

"He's hurt, he can't stand without needing help. He can't get out here and by the time he comes out it might be too late, I'm not leaving you all alone." She whispered, rubbing his arm gently as she slid her other arm around him to so he'd be more comfortable leant against her, "You fight this and stay awake, yeah? I may not be the one for you but that doesn't mean there isn't someone out there for you. Just waiting for you to find them. Hang in there, Zane. Stay awake."

---
"Lilly doesn't cope well with death, she's out there with Zane and I doubt he'll make it. Enough about everyone else though, how're you feeling?"

"Even if he could get out here, he isn't going to."
__

"I'll live."

"But you don't need him to be okay, anyway. All these adventures you've been on that you told me about, all the scraps you've got out of. You must be strong to go through all of that. You can survive a few wounds. Stop sounding so defeated." Lilly whispered, smoothing his hair down gently.

----
"Are you in pain?" Daniel asked.

"A bit, but I've had worse."
____

Zane looked at her. "But I've never been hit in the heart."

Lilly lowered her gaze to lock eye contact with him, comforting gently, "You're going to be fine, Zane. You don't seem to be able to sit up by yourself but you're breathing, you're awake and talking to me." Quietly, she moved her fingertips to his neck to check his pulse, "You're not going to die. You can't. I want to be your friend, you can't die."

---
"Not the point," Daniel grumbled, kissing her cheek gently.

She didn't react to the kiss though her injury was a bit more important to her at that moment.
____

"You'll forget me, Koby always was better at entertaining girls."

"You're not going to die," She repeated, though it sounded more like she was pleading with him now. Moving her hand to his chest gently and feeling his heartbeat to see if it was slowing.

----
Daniel sighed softly and got to his feet, coming back a moment later with a first aid kit.

"Why did you kiss me?" She asked him, and it was obvious that despite her age, she had no idea about love or anything like that.
____

"I'm sorry lily." Slowly his heartbeat slowed down even further.
