Half Dead

Darkness

Darkness

That's all I can see, I feel awake but dead at the same time.

I hear sounds of people talking but I can't exactly see them.

Everything's seems to be going so fast.

I start seeing a bright light but I can't quite adjust everything around me my heads spinning at the moment, it's throbbing so hard I feel likes it going to jump out of my head.

I look down at my chest and to my suprise it looks normal, as if someone magically made everything look the same again because I'm pretty sure that witch threw a knife to my chest.

I sit up from the hospital bed and look at my surroundings.

The thin walls painted white the floor tiles white and nearly everything is white, there are a bunch of items you would find in a normal hospital room.

I look down at my body, I'm covered with a bed sheet but under I'm only wearing an underwear, my chest bare for everyone to see.

I quickly get of the bed to a hospital dress I see on a cloth rack I put it on and stare at my reflection in a small mirror beside it.

My face is pale, my rose pink lips are dried up, the gorgeous brown locks filled with knots.

I look horrible

I stare at my reflection horridley started to get scared of how ghost like I look.

The door slowly opens and I quickly turn around to look at who it is.

A short Asian lady with dark brown hair walks in. She has a sweet genuine smile on, but it quickly fades away replaced with a panicked look.

Then she screams.

"We are loosing her!!"

Four men come in with surgery masks on she points in front of her and that's when I hear it.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

I can't believe I never heard it before.

It was getting louder in my head every second I hear it.

Doctors rushed in surrounding something on the bed I just woke up from.

I move up closer wanting to see what it is I lean against a doctor and something I didn't expect happened.

I fell right through him!

And that's when it hits me.

I'm dead.

And the thing they are all surrounding is the body they think they can still save.

That's when it all comes back to me.

Amelia

Even saying that name makes my head throb.

I can't believe she actually did this to me.

I jolt out of the hospital room with warm tears swelling up my eyes.

I keep on running and I don't stop until......

My mother.

Her hopeless body on the floor. She is crying her eyes out and trying to get out of my father's grip.

Her dark hair covering her face getting drenched with her tears, her beautiful freckled face.

My gorgeous mother in pain, her heart broken, because she lost something important in her life.

Me

All the tears, the pain, the guilt, the thoughts of neglect. All because of my death, all because of AMELIA!

I go close to her and hold her face onto my palms my cold sweaty palms.

But they just go through them.

Tears swell up in my eyes again, having sympathy for my mother. I'm an emotional wreck and nobody can see that, I look at my mother one last time.

I glance to my father noticing a single tear drop from his face.

A look of misery on his face, dark puffy eyes. He's well built body kneels beside my mum's as he attempts to carry her of the floor.

I can't look anymore. I jolt for the hospital door.

I run towards the streets but cars just past through me, tickling me a bit through the process.

I run off the street and into the dark forest on the opposite side, I don't stop running even though nothing is chasing me,I run and run until I can't run anymore, I sit on the floor and hope I don't go through it.

If I can still hear and see the world around me, it means I still have a chance to get back to life.

A second chance!

I can't screw it up,I need to find a way, there's always a way. I stand up and start walking back to where I came from, back to the hospital. I walk in through the doors and go up the stairs into the room I was.

There are no longer doctors surrounding my bed, but my body is still there but this time the heart meter is beating steadily.

How?

I hear the door slam open and see my mother rush beside my body, she sits down on the chair beside me and reaches out her hand to stroke my unconcious self. One by one tears start trickling down her face.

She speaks up while her voice cracks,"why did they do this to you Riley?"

My dad walks in and slowly walks towards my mum.

"She's in a coma Greg!" She shouts,"in a freaking coma!"

Her body shakes much more vigorously as she cries harder, she leans against my father chest and doesn't stop screaming and crying as if it will help.

I walk away not able to stand seeing my mother in so much pain, if this is how being in a coma is, then there is a way to go back into reality.

And I'm going to find out how.
