Chapter 38

Paige's P.O.V.

When I woke up, it was still dark.

At first I was so disorientated. but then it all dawned on me.

The fight.

The blade.

My wound.

Connor.

I knew I had to go. To leave. I was dying. It was the logical choice. We would never make it back to camp in time. Connor couldn't carry me any more. I was practically killing him.

It was the logical choice.

I turned around so I was face to face with Connor. luckily he was still asleep.I brought my hand up to his cheek. I would miss him.

I could only wonder if he would miss me.

I tried to sit up but was washed over with dizziness. I could no longer feel the pain but was not sure if that was a good thing or not.

I looked down at the gaping hole in my side. It was tinged green and bleeding black blood.

definitely not good.

I pulled myself up onto my feet and took a staggering step forward.
pain shot up through me and almost made me cry out.

I took a deep breath, trying not to wake Connor and carried on walking.
Every few paces I would collapse on the ground in pain. It was an excruciatingly slow process but in about an hour, I could no longer see Connor and our camp.
I could hear a slight buzzing sound over head. so quiet that I almost didn't hear it.
I recognised the noise but I just couldn't put my finger on it.

Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my wound. I sunk to my knees and started furiously coughing.

I looked down at my hands. They were covered in blood.

Black blood.

I screamed in terrible agony and carried on coughing and spluttering, Black blood pouring out of my mouth, until I passed out on the forest floor.
