I took a deep breath, pushing open the door to were the creature laid. The second I opened the door it started to growl again, baring its teeth at me.

I slowly closed the door, the getting down on the ground. I sat far enough so I didn't scare it, but close enough that it could move to me if it wanted to.

It gave another growl, which soon turned into a whine. Gripping onto his stomach as it turned away.

All I could really do was watch. I didn't know what I could do. I saw a black puddle of something as it movie. I'm guessing it was blood.. Is it hurt? Did Tim and Brian do something to it?

I tried to move closer to it, getting it to start growling again. "Shhh.. I'm trying to help you." I looked up at its face, as it kind of stopped growling.

I moved a little closer. It didn't really try to stop me. Now getting a closer look at it. It did kind of look human. It was weird. It was built like a human, but didn't look like it.

I was snapped back to reality by the sound of someone trying to talk. I looked at the creature again, seeing its other hand gripped on its throat.

"Do-" It paused for a bit, pain showing on its face. "You have a med box.?"

I was honestly stunned. I wasn't really expecting that all that much. I quickly nodded, getting up and grabbing on off a shelf in the room.

I opened it, going to help it. But it stopped me. "I can- Do it." It pulled the box to itself. Lifting up its shirt, and starting to bandage itself up.

I just kind of watched. Letting it do its thing. Should I tell Tom that it can talk.? I'm not sure. It kind of have an accent from what I could tell, and it was having a hard time speaking.. Maybe it wants water?

"I'll-" I stood up before I could finish my sentence. "I'll go get up water." I saw it nod as I left.

-A few minutes later-

I soon got back to the thing with a bottle of water, setting it down in front of it.

It quickly opened the water, and started chugging it. I just let it be as I took the med box back, putting it back on the shelf.

It soon put the bottle down. Letting out a sigh. "Endlich etwas verdammtes Wasser." (Finally some damn water) It said, whipping its mouth.

"What-?" I gave it a confused look. Getting it to shake its head.

"Thank you" It said, slowly pushing itself back into the corner.

I feel like nows my chance- I gave it what it wanted maybe it'll talk to me.

"Sooo.. Um-" I saw its ears twitch as I started talking. "Do you have a name, or are you just a thing.?"

It sighed again. "You can call me Jack if you want."
