Lost Memories

Chapter 18: Coma

I stroked Sam's head, I sighed and put my feet in the chair. "You know the juggernaught is rampaging down town" Fury said. It's been a week and Sam has still not come out of his coma.

"I don't wanna leave, I wanna be the first thing he sees when he wakes up" I said almost choking up trying to keep positive

I peered at the other Nova's across the hall. All of them have black helmets does that make Sam an outsider? Is that why he is in a worse state than the rest?

I looked back at Sam and groaned. "I guess I'm going" I said walking away. I looked back and walked away. I grabbed a parachute from the Helicarrier and looked outside as my hair was flying around me.

I felt the goose bumps as I thought about dropping. "What if the parachute doesn't work" I said clinging to the wall looking at Fury.

"Want me throw you?" He asked. I nodded and he pushed me out, I pulled the string, it was jammed. So I tugged harder and harder, then it popped. It didn't process for me that I was falling to my doom.

"Here we go again." I fell on something soft, some one caught me. I held on tight to the individual, I didn't care who it was, no heights.

"Put me down" I yelled. I was dropped and I looked up

"Damn you." I yelled to Nathan. I fell on the Juggernaught and he threw me off him. I rolled across the ground and looked up in the sky. Something was approaching and it didn't look friendly.

"Greetings humans" A man's face appeared over head of the city.

"We are looking for the Novas, they must remain alive so we can have our game."

"You idiot" Someone off screen yelled.

"We might share mercy on your human souls if you finf them." the man said and zipped out. I stood up quietly and almost curse.

"How the hell am I supposed to get up there." I grumbled. Nathan grabbed my arm and Ava's and flew us up there.

"Since Sam's gone I guess I'll fly you guys" He said.

I looked away annoyed. "Sam isn't gone you idiot" I snapped pulling my goggles off my fcae

"Well" he started. I whimpered a bit.

"What does it take for you to be nice?" I hissed.

"I was being honest, well most people in a coma usually die" he said. "And the way he dropped on his head... Im... not too.... hopeful."

I couldn't hide the discomfort I felt from this conversation.

"I.... Riley... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-" he said.

I walked into the Helicarrier and wiped my eyes. "I don't want to hear your comments... not... not today."

I leaned against the wall and folded my arms. I went straight back to my seat next to Sam.

"Did you miss me?" I smiled a bit. I sighed and rocked my chair on the backlegs.

"Nathan was being an asshole today. He literally dropped me on top of a villain." I smiled.

Sams blank face changed into a tug at the corners of his lip. He then smiled his famous smirk and kept smirking as if he was trying to laugh. My eyes widened and I jumped in the air and called everyone.

"Riley I doubt it- he can't hear you yet"

"Listen I'm not being delusional. Hes been in this state for the longest. You think I would lie about this?"
