Broken

Chapter 18

Recap:

"Because mother, I'm pregnant" I said impatiently.

I gasped out loud. Suddenly there was this pressure in my head. I felt like my brain was going to explode in a million pieces.

Suddenly I felt numb. My eyes were still open but I couldn't see my family all I could see was the image of a new rune . I felt the urge to draw it. I reached for a knife and I glided my hand over the table and wiped everything on the floor. I took the knife in my hand and started carving on the table.

My hand went faster and faster as I carved the rune in my mind, on the table. In a matter of minutes I was done with carving the rune. It was carved to perfection on the table.

I felt like all the pressure was subsiding and I was going to faint. My vision was getting blurry and my head felt heavy. I couldn't breathe. I opened my eyes to see everything spining.

What's happening to me? I thought.

I closed my eyes and tried to steady myself. When I closed my eyes I lost my balance and fell banging my head on the floor and blacking out.

As I regained my consciousness, I felt my body being shaked and pinched. Suddenly I was lifted by warm strong hands. Then after a few minutes I was laying down on something warm and soft. I'm guessing it was a bed. I felt movement and cold things touching my arms, legs and hair.

They were pinching my arms right were my veins were. Out of the blue I felt this excruciating pain in my arms and hands like they were being ripped out. I felt like screaming and clawing at my arms but I couldn't lift a finger.

My veins felt like they were on fire. I was in so much pain I couldn't handle it. My body couldn't handle it.

So I gave up. I didn't fight. I just laid there motionless hoping that darkness would consume me.

And a few minutes later I was surrounded by darkness. I felt nothing, heard nothing.

I felt a pounding in the side of my head. I tried to lift my hand to grab my head but I couldn't lift my hand it was too heavy.

My eye lids were very heavy.

Everything hurt.

Especially my arms.

I slowly and painfully lifted my heavy eye lids once again. I was momentarilly blinded by the brightness of the room I was in. I blinked a couple of times until my eyes adjusted to the brightness of the room.

Slowly and careful, not to hurt myself any further, I turned my head from side to side inspecting my surroundings. I was all alone. There was no one here.

I was in the Institutes infirmary, laying on one of their many white beds.

I once again tried to move my hands.

It was awful! The pain was too much. I couldn't take it. I bit my lips trying to muffel a sob. I layed my head back against the pillow blinking back the tears that threatened to fall.
