Heart of Ice

Comfort

*Beep Beep Beep*

"She looks like she's ready to wake up." What? Who is that? Where am I??? I started to panic and soon my eyes were wide open as a scrambled back from the two women in front of me. The one on my left was wearing glasses while the one on my right had her hair in a bun and had a duck-like face. They both gave me small smiles and I just shook my head. Why was I here?

"Do you remember anything that happened?" The one with glasses asked. No? * I saw the top of a head, everything in me screaming for it not to be who I thought it was* "NO!!!! Rayna!!!" I screamed and tried frantically to get out of the bed that held me still with a strap. What the hell??!!! I glared at the two of them and they just smiled, infuriating me even more. Why was I restrained?

The one with glasses spoke, "Hun, you attacked anybody who went near your friend last night. You were so hysterical that we had to sedate you. We weren't sure what you would be like when you woke up, so we had a strap secured to you for your safety and ours. That makes sense, but I still needed to see Rayna. i struggled against my restraints,"I need to see my sister! Let me see her!!! Please!?"

They glanced at each other. "She is your sister?" Duck-face asked. I nodded," She is not my biological sister. I was adopted, but that doesn't mean we aren't family!" I struggled even harder.

"You need to calm down Hun, or we will sedate you again." Glasses said with a warning clear in her voice. I immediately stopped and tried to calm down. What will happen to Rayna? Does mom or Dad even know? I looked at the two women.

"Where are our parents?" I demanded. Glasses stood up straighter and was hesitant when she spoke,"Well, since we couldn't find any records on you or your sister, and you were both unconscious, we didn't find anyone to contact..." She trailed off and I suddenly shook with rage. They kept us here and strapped me down without even calling our parents???!!! How the fuck dare they???!!!

"How dare you!", my words echoing my thoughts,"You kept me strapped down and kept my sister away from me and you haven't even notified our parents?! Our house was broken into and you couldn't even bother to look around to see that the fucking phone numbers were right there??!!" My voice had risen to an ear-splitting screech by that point. I was out-raged that they had the audacity to hold me here against my will and our parents weren't even here to defend me! The two women looked down shamefully as I glared. "I want to be released now." My voice had gone to a deadly low tone and the nurses actually looked nervous as they unstrapped me.

Nobody messes with me or my family. I ran to the nearest doctor ,"Do you know what room Rayna Phillent is in?"

The doctors face became grim as he gave me the instructions to her room. Fear ran its course throughout my body as I came to her room. I pushed the door open and there, lying still, was Rayna looking like an Angel sleeping peacefully. I crept my way over to her bed and sat in a chair. I was going to be there when she woke up.

A doctor came in at that moment and, seeing my hopeful expression, looked even more grim. I widened my eyes as he pulled a chair up next to mine and sat down.

"I have some bad news. Your friend is in a coma. Whatever hit her caused skull fragments to enter her cerebral cortex. Only time will tell when she wakes up, but the chances are 40/60 to her awakening.

Oh no. Oh no Oh no Oh no!! My sweet sister is in a coma and it's all my fault! I should have told her abput the note as soon as I could! Now, she gets to pay for my mistake. Tears filled my eyes as I processed all of it. The only words that repeated in my head were:

All my fault
