For Us A Dahlia Flower Or Two

Chapter 0

Have you ever heard of the Novel Armaros, well I hadn't either till recently. So you really aren't alone on this.

At the time I found it, I was at my schools library. A very big library with shelfs apon shelfs of untouched textbooks and novels. I was searching around until my friend had accidently dropped a book on my head.

They were sorry of course, but still it hurt like a bitch. Of course I so picked the book back up after it fell off my head. But when I saw the cover of said book it was weird it had no picture or anything just big fancy text saying ARMAROS.

I got curious so I looked at the back for at least a summary but nothing. Of course that was weird but I really didn't want to open it up and read it. So I searched up the name and nothing about the book. So I became more specific adding book to the search bar.

I got a few thing about the book but nothing really important just old forums. This got me believing it was an old book. And many old books end up being strange, so I really- really didn't want to read it alone.

So I asked the friend that dropped, it on my head to read it with me. They hesitated at first, but accepted as they rather not get in trouble for dropping a heavy book on someone.

But we didn't read it then and their.

We Waited till the next day.

If we had read it earlier maybe-- just maybe, it would have been easier for us to understand what we do now.
If only we did.

Samuel placed down the book to his left on a dark colored desk. If he could ask one question on how he got to this place it be.

How did it happen?!
What lead up to this?!

But he can't really ask those questions since he's the one in the hospital bed. Not someone else which sucks but at least he's not alone. Fortunately and unfortunately.

Looking to his right on another hospital bed was a girl. His best friend Charlotte or Charlie for short. Both of them so happened to get in a freak accident, a week or two ago and don't remember much about it. The only thing they do know however is that their in the fucking hospital.

And most of the time the don't see many people. So they find comfort in books and music. As their phones were destroyed in the incident. It was actually kinda funny seeing it in a small baggy, totally obliterated.

But it could be worse they probably could be alone without the other, so aleast they have comfort in each other. Still in the hospital its very boring, nothing much but daily check ups, visits and rehabilitation.

"Psst.. Charlie-- Charlie"

"What! Do you want can't you see I'm trying to think!"

"Yes! But I'm bored so I'm going to annoy you" answered Samuel
"I would tell you to read a book but I know your gonna read Armaros, you asshole" Charlie responded her tone of voice annoyed but sarcastic.

" *GASP* I would never" Samuel responded in a dramatic tone of voice.

"Yes you would" 

"Yea I would"
The room was silent as they both looked at each other.

But then both of them bursted out laughing.

And soon as the laughter died down a conversation started, a actual one started.

"So what do you think Armaros is gonna do next" asked Charlie

"Definitely kill his grandfather, He's such an asshole like who does he think he is!"

"He's the emperor sam"

"Doesn't make him less of an ass"

"Pfff- Haaha"

Both talked about the strange book, Armaros. A story about a young boy who had lost his parents at a very young age. One died in war, and the other while in childbirth. He was raised by his grandparents in the royal court.

To one day be emperor, and rule over the Empire. But one day he found out something that could ruin the royal family. And so in one night he went from crown prince to becoming a fugitive.

And he had many adventures on the way but their always is and underlying question. What was that secret?

And since both liked the book (and the fact it was a lot of pages) both have decided to read a bit each day since it get overwhelming reading so much in one siting.

But soon as night rolled by their entire world would soon change.

Samuel couldn't sleep, well he never can but tonight the definitely couldn't. Everything felt off to him.

Maybe it's just teen hormones, maybe it's paranoia, or maybe it nothing at all and he's just going crazy. But either way something didn't feel right.

Soon Samuel noticed that everything was too dark, everything felt fake, and his head hurt so much. It was like it was being split into, two pieces.

But he couldn't move as his vision faded into black.

If he could describe the feeling, he felt at the moment well. He felt like he was floating in a dark space.

It was almost as if he was dead.

Soon their was a light and then he woke up.

"That was weird-"

.....

Wait that's not my voice
