Shey was just heading home from her last performance for the night. She thought she'd be able to get a taxi or something to head home but had forgotten that she spend the rest of her money for dinner before said performance. So, she decided to walk home...with all of her equipment.
She was carrying a violin in its case with its strap around her neck, a tuba case under her right arm, a flute case also around her neck (thankfully it was a small/lightweight case). There was also a CELLO case on her back with its strap wrapped around her front. If that doesn't scream vulnerable, then I don't know what is.

"Ah dammit...this is heavy..."

She's been carrying the load for a long while. A few minutes ago Shey had noticed some people walking far behind her, but she wasn't sure if they were following her. They had disappeared a while back down an alley, and she hasn't seen them since.

Suddenly, there was movement in front of her a ways. Back in an alley a little to the right. Shey panicked and thought of crossing the street quickly, but she saw somebody in another alley across the street. Shey looked around and saw two more people behind her. Shey tried to look at their faces but it was so dark out, she couldn't see much.
She really just wanted to run into the street or something to catch somebody driving by's attention, but the streets were empty, and have been. Seeing as how she's carrying so much stuff, Shey can't run anyways. She can't drop her things quickly either with everything wrapped around her. Some mace was in her purse that she was carrying with her, but she couldn't reach it with all the straps restricting her movement.

"H-hey! I know y-you're out there! I g-got pepper spray and a g-gun!" Shey was bluffing, and she knew she was stuttering but she REALLY hoped those people didn't hear that...

The person in the alley in front of her a ways stepped out. It turned out that they had a mask on and dark clothing, so Shey really couldn't see much of them. They spoke in a voice that clearly identified them as male. "Hey sweetheart. You got a lot of stuff there. Do you want me to help carry it? Hehehehe..."

"G-get away!"

The other people stepped out of the alleys, effectively surrounding her. There were 4 people, all in black and wearing masks.

He moved silently through the city, Ling had wandered and explored much of it, but he still barely knew anyone here. The young dragon had struggled to connect with people, to make friends, hell the only friend he had seduced him the first day they met. So here he was, wandering the city, no real direction, just walking.

Then his ears picked something up, a woman screaming, clearly in trouble, taking a breath, he followed the voice and turned into an alley. He could see her toward the other side of the alley, surrounded by four men. Shaking his head Ling stepped forward, his arms by his side in a relaxed position.

"Leave her alone," he said calmly, his voice still holding the light Chinese accent. One of the thugs turned to face him, a large masked man, the stranger's fist shot out, Ling stepped to the side. His pushed the blow to the side, while his hand struck out at the man's throat, the stranger stumbled back, coughing and holding where Ling's blow had landed.

The other three left the girl to move in one Ling. One attacked, Ling side stepped, his foot shooting out as one of the others charged him, the heal of his foot colliding with his nose. Ling didn't have time to react as the third attacked, his knife digging into his side. So he knocked him back with a burst of electricity from his fist.

Suddenly, a man had appeared behind the thugs. Immediately the person who seemed to be the leader of the group threw his fist at the guy's face, but it was quickly avoided. The other three criminals turned towards the guy, and the five of them continued to fight viciously. With four against one, the newcomer was surprisingly skilled and agile.

But even with that skill, there was bound to be some slip up. And there was, because the newcomer quickly got stabbed with a knife to the side. Shey didn't know what to do. She had an idea, but she would have to try not to draw attention to the group. Maybe she could sneak up behind one of the thugs and hit them over the head with one of her instruments...

"U-uh..."

...To be honest, she was really scared. With the group that was about to attack her, and the guy that stepped in to help her. She couldn't do anything at that moment besides watch and try to compose herself. Shey slowly began to put her instruments down...

Ling felt a blow to his head, it hurt, not enough to knock him over, he flipped around his had taking hold of his enemy's arm, his other hand slamming into the side of his head. The man fell backwards, all in all, this wasn't going overly well, the monks would be shaking their heads, say he'd jump to easily into a fight.

The first man tried to rise, his hand still hold his nose, a quick kick sent him tmbling back again. His adrenaline was high, so he'd yet to feel the pain in his side, the knife wound was bleeding.

Taking a breath, he took a a defensive position, his hands crackling with electricity. Ling was displeased with these people, attacking a young women for no reason. Jumping into a fight like this would've made the monks back home lecture him, but he'd have no regrets.

As Shey put the last instrument down, she looked around for something that could work...A violin? A flute case? A flute might actually be better in this situation...She wouldn't be able to get a good grip on the case for the violin anyways. No time to get it out either.

"G-goodbye to the flute then..." , she whispered to herself.

She took the flute case out of its protective covering and strap and gripped said case in both hands tightly. Shey tried to look into the newcomer's eyes, and pointedly looked at the thug with his back to her. She directed her gaze to her flute case, trying to tell him silently that she was going to use it. To make it hopefully easier to understand, she pointed at herself, the flute case, and the thug as she directed her gaze to each. Luckily the other thugs seemed to be too distracted by the newcomer to notice her movements...

The flute case landed hard on the mugger's head, the already injured man stumbled forward. As this happened one of the others charged Ling, the young dragon sent him tumbling back with small burst of lightning. Normally he'd prefer to keep this hand to hand but he was about tired of it all.

The three men, injured and now terrified seemed to consider their options, before turning and running for it. Ling took a breath, the electricity on his hands fading. His hand covered his wound, he turned to look at the girl, "are you hurt?" he asked more concerned for her.

He walked over to her, limping slightly, "any injuries?" his puncture wound wasn't lethal, but it was bleeding a bit. "I'm sorry that happened to you."

Shey dropped the flute case as soon as the muggers left. She was shaking, but otherwise alright.

"Yeah....I'm doing fine...I'm great. I'm a bit shaky but I'm not hurt."

Then she noticed that her savior had a big wound in his side, and she immediately panicked.

"H-hey! You're hurt! Pretty badly it looks like. We need to get you to the hospital! I can call an ambulance I just need to find my phone i-it's...somewhere..."

Shey went back to all of her cases of instruments and rummaged through them to find her bag...She might have a few bandages to at least help stop the bleeding too.

"Where is it where is it where is it..."

A smile od relief crossed his face, she was ok, that was what mattered to him. The young dragon was bleeding badly though, he'd need to see a doctor and soon. The girl found her phone quickly enough, she made the call and the ambulance arrived.

She was kind enough to ride to the hospital with him, he'd settled in to heal, to rest. She stayed as long as she could. Soon he dozed off to sleep, it had been a tiring, eventful day.
