Chapter Text
'What just happened'
Johnny was on his knees, breathing heavily and trying to leave the podium. He wasn't able to realize what was going on.He left the stage as quickly as possible but started to see blurry. How come he was fighting with Klaus and not Ryan, that wasn't right. Why was he there? Where even was Ryan, he was supposed to be fighting with him.
He collapsed to the ground and couldn't get himself to stand up. His legs felt nubm just like his arms, he couldn't even lift up his head.... His head, he didn't feel or hear anything around him, it was like he was in his own quiet bubble.
Then he thought of the stress he was under while finally doing his dance right and the meltdown he had after the class. The memory was fading away as someone runned over to him. He couldn't recognize who it was.
" Johnny are you alright?"
The only thing he could hear was a high pitched noise that hit him like a fast-moving, unstoppable ship that arrived at the port. It overpowered everything else and left him in a neverending torture. When he finally got himself to at least open his eyes he saw Ryan. Behind him there were other actors, dancers and staff members running around, trying to get somewhere. But why did they all look so scared. Then he again looked at the tiger,he was bending over him and checking for any injuries. Johnny couldn't think about anything else than:
' Where was he?'
Ryan spoke again.
" I am so sorry but I couldn't stop him, are you hurt?"
Johnny just looked confused, he didn't really understand what the tiger wanted from him. He didn't hear him.He was worried about Ryan, he looked so scared. Johnny was sorry for him but he wasn't able to do anything. Every time something like this happens he goes mute and can't do anything to reconnect with the outer world. Out of nothing he felt sharp pain , stabbing him in the back of his head, as his adrenaline was getting lower. That's when he remembered what happened and finally understood why everyone was so upset. That motherfucker hit his head knowing what it would do. The pain started to spread throughout his body. He couldn't breath or speak, Ryan tried to get something out of him but his shallow breaths were terrifying.
" It's gonna be fine"
He tried to comfort Johnny but didn't know what to do. He couldn't hear him. Johnny was exhausted from the dancing and the pain and had no energy. His vision went from Ryan to darkness as he passed out.
He could see someone else running towards him before that and apparently calling for paramedics because the next thing he remembered was being in an ambulance with two of them. That was the last thing he recalled before waking up in a hospital bed.
