"Alright, alright-" someone's voice speaks as my eyes slowly begin opening. "She's coming around a bit- Miss? Miss can you hear me?" Slowly my eyes close and barely open back up, letting my eyes glance around. I was on the ground of that cellar still. My head was pounding so I close my eyes again feeling a gloved hand on the side of my face.

"She needs immediate medical attention," a different voice speaks. I hear movement all around me and feel something slightly up against the side of me. Within seconds I feel my body rolled causing me to flinch weakly before laying flat. Straps were put around my legs and upper body as my eyes begin going open and close. That's when it finally clicks in my head as I'm picked up and placed on what I believe to be a stretcher. As it starts moving and an oxygen mask over my face. But before they can I move my head and close my eyes.

"A-Alycia," I mumble out.

"Wait-Wait," the first person who had spoke said. "Miss what did you say?"

"A-Alycia.. Whe-Where..." My voice trails on accident and as much as I fight it. As much as I don't want to go back unconscious I can't help but slip back into the darkness.

My eyes flutter open. The pain I felt before wasn't there. I felt good but still felt weak. It was a good feeling. I take a moment closing my eyes and taking a deep, low breathe before hearing movement in a chair to the right of me. Quickly my eyes open and I turn my head slowly to meet Alycia's tired green eyes. A small smile spread to my lips seeing her sitting up in the chair going to pull down the white blanket wrapped around her.

"No, no. Stay com-comfy," I say my voice dry. But the girl doesn't listen pulling the blanket down and reaching over to the table. I watch her as she grabs a cup and placed the straw to my lips. Gently I take a sip and feeling the cool water go down my throat. After I've had enough I pull away and lean back, leaning my head to the side to look at the girl. She set the water down and leaned back a bit in her chair, putting her feet up onto the chair and wrapping her arms around her knees with the blanket draped over her.

Neither of us talk, only look to one another. I soften my eyes looking to her seeing her eyes soften more so than they were. I couldn't get past how tired she looked or how scared she looked. I gently move my hand and go to hold it out to her but she quickly leans up in her chair and I feel her fingers slip through mine. Our hands interlock and I give her a gentle squeeze, closing my eyes a moment.

"I thought...thought I lost you back there," Alycia finally speaks, her voice low and cracking. My eyes open a bit, meeting the girl's eyes. "I really thought you were-were..." She drops her head and I gently squeeze her hand once then twice.
