I had lost consciousnous. But when I gained it back. There was nothing. I was glad I couldn't hear the sirens, or the screams of people. I looked around just slightly. My body ached. My arm was bleeding rapidly, the pain finally registered to my brain. I shouted out. Hot tears started to fall from my eyes. The pain was unbearable. My eyes started to close. But I forced myself to keep them open. But soon, I failed at my attempts and I closed my eyes. In complete darkness.

...

I woke up again. My head felt heavy, there were people surrounding me. I was laying on a bed and the place I was in was shaking slightly.  Then I realized I was in an ambulance. People were leaning over me. Talking fast. I didn't know what to do. Where was my mom? My brothers? Then I remembered. Where was Missy and her mom!? Were they okay?! I was worrying so much. My eyes were wide, taking in my surroundings. I was scared. And I couldn't talk to any of the people talking to me. I couldn't reply to them. For I didn't know what they were saying. I couldn't sign to them that I couldn't hear them. My arm was still throbbing. And it hurt to move it at all. The same with my leg. I tried to force a word out of my mouth. But all I could manage was a "Uh" . It must've sounded confused. Because they looked like they were trying to tell me what happened.  I shook my head, but immediately regretted it. The pain in my head surged even more powerfully. How was I going to tell them that them talking to me was useless. That I couldn't hear them. How could I ask them to talk more slowly so I would at least know what was going on. The ambulance stopped and they picked up the bed  I was laying on, and they rushed me into the hospital. Which was the place I really didn't want to go to.
