It was still early in the night so I figured I'd get some work done. I was, of course at my usual, spot at the corner table. When I walked in the library was empty, or so I thought. I had been at my studies for almost two hours when I got that feeling again. I wasn't alone. My first hint was from soft footsteps near the fireplace. They were immediately followed by the sound of shuffling near the right. I slowly closed my book but didn't turn around. 3, 4, 5 seconds went by. Then BAM. The first punch was thrown. It landed on my shoulder because I managed to move my head out of the way just in time. Then the second attacker was revealed in the form of a powerful knee to my stomach. This wasn't looking good for me...
