Hospital Assassination
~
"Run!" He yelled loudly. My first instinct was to listen to him, but who the heck was he? I didn't know a thing about him. He came out of no where scaring me to death.
"Why should I trust you!" I managed to utter, fear flowing through me like blood. This guy did seem like a man who was pretty supreme. Almost as if he was forceful and almighty, but that was all a thought in my head.
"You shouldn't, but for the sake of everyone's well being, do as I say."
"Well being? Why do you say that?" I asked confused. Why would people's health and comfort be in my hands?
"Dang girl, you ask way to many questions." He said annoyed. Next thing I know I'm being involuntary removed from my spot because Mr.Scary over here decided that it was best if everything goes his way.
"No!" I shouted making us stop our little 'adventure'. He turned his head around so quickly I was sure his neck had no bones it in. His face turned into a glare that made my head burn for some odd reason.Does this guy have some kind of glaring superpower?
"Listen here little miss, in this world I'm the boss," he poked my chest "me not you, got that?"
"Well you don't gotta be so rude, who the heck raised you as a child?" I asked angrily.
"DCM, unleash!"
His sudden yet strange words caught me off guard. His back began making an ear piercing noise and I quickly covered my ears hoping it wouldn't damage my hearing, or what's left of it. I watched in horror as his arms turned in a 90 degree angle and long hair-like spikes coming out of it instantly. Dangerously high winds almost swept me off my feet as I watched him form into something disgusting and awful looking.
"Kaliah honey, I miss you!" he sang,"Please, I know you can hear me! Just get up, if you can!"
BAM!
I immediately got up from what seemed like a bad dream. Blood began seeping from my nose roughly which caused my mom to freak out and yell for a nurse. The nurse came and lifted my chin with one hand while the other cleaned up the mess on my face. I don't know why my mom acted the way she did. She could've been a mother for once and just helped me with the nosebleed, or even give me some tissues.
Whatever I thought. I shouldn't be talking about my mom. Even if I am talking to myself. Does that still count as bad mouthing her?
"Okay sweetie you're all cleaned up!" The nurse said with a smile.
"Your instant awakening must have caused some dizziness which then led to the nosebleed, nothing major to worry about."
"Thank god!" My mom said getting down on her knees perhaps praying which I've never, and I mean never seen her do.
"I'm glad you're awake though Kaliah!" the nurse chirped,"we'll be running a few blood tests and after that you'll be free to go. I'm assuming you will have to go to the police station to file a report."
"Why would I need to file a police report?" I asked stifling a yawn.
"So the police can find the person who hit you on your head and bring them to justice." My mom said sternly.
