Protect me

"Protect me, I guess, is that a usual request?" Matt said.
I do not know, but I will do my best. May I use a larger body?
"Um sure I guess" and before he could say anything else, the little elemental ran out his door, its form collapsing into a puddle to slide under a door.
Matt suddenly heard a knock on the door. Panicking a little, Matt hid the book under his mattress and rolled the matrix up as well. Matt heard the tap turn on in the bathroom when he got to the door and opened it. Much to his surprise it was the lady from the bus earlier
She smiled and said "Hello we met on the bus and earl-" before Matt heard glass break and a sudden blow from behind knocking him out.
