Faith

Chapter Two

The bright light of the sun woke me up. It was so bright it blinded me, making me turn my head. I immediately regretted moving as a sharp headache hit me.
I must've fallen asleep because I woke up again. Soft voices surrounded me and I tried to open my eyes. I managed to see some blurry, shiny objects but passed out before being able to focus.
Something cold touched my forehead, waking me up again. I wondered how long I had been here, wherever here was. I heard people talking again and managed to move a little.
'Oh... don't ...... too much.' I managed to hear as I felt the cold hands on my bare shoulders. I suddenly started feeling weird and warm. The voices started yelling but they soon faded away.
I opened my eyes. Fully this time. I blinked a few times, making everything less blurry. I stared at the high ceiling as I tried to remember how I got here and where I was. I remembered being in the forest for a while but I couldn't remember how long ago that was. I inhaled deeply and let out a sigh, looking around. I was wearing a hospital gown and laying in a hospital bed. The room didn't look like a hospital though, dark gray, brick walls and high, stained glass windows. I sat up a little more and noticed all the tubes and things on my body. I ripped them all out and almost threw up when pulling the feeding tube out of my face. How long have I been here? Long enough to gain some weight apparently. I managed to sit on the edge of the bed and looked at my legs. One of my feet was wrapped in bandages all the way up to my knee. I tried to put some weight on it but almost yelled out in pain when I did. Fuck...
I spotted my pants, which were now clean, folded on a chair. I managed to hop over and grab them. While putting them on I noticed a pair of crutches at the end of the bed. I decided to take them and just leave. There was something I was doing before I got lost in those woods and I needed to remember what it was.
Once out of bed and in the middle of the room I noticed that it looked a lot like a church. There was nobody around so I just left the room and walked down the hallway until I reached a huge room full of pews. Definitely a church. I left through the big doors and started following the dirt road towards the woods.
At some point I heard voices behind me, I looked back for a second but ignored them. When I turned back around and stopped dead in my tracks as I saw a man standing about 30 yards away from me. Cold fear spread through my body as I recognized him. I stumbled backwards and fell over when the man started sprinting towards me. Panic washed over me as I scrambled backwards. I curled up into a ball and covered my head with my arms as I waited for the man to attack me.

Third Person's POV:

'Fuck! How did he get out here?' Swiss exclaimed as he motioned for Aether to follow him.
'Ah shit!' Aether said as they watched the guy go down and freak out. Swiss arrived first and kneeled down. Before he could even touch him the guy started shaking violently.
'Fuck, he's having another seizure.' Aether said as he looked at his watch. Meanwhile Swiss took off his jacket and put it under the young man's head. They sat with him for a little bit and rolled him on his side when he stopped convulsing.
Once they were sure it was safe they moved him back to the infirmary and notified the nurses. They also gathered the other Ghouls and made a schedule to keep guard.
