Wren heard soft snoring. She tried opening her eyes, surprised she actually could.
Nico had his head on his and Will's bed, where Wren was laying.
A heavy pain spiked around her right shoulder, and slowly, she turned her aching neck to look at her arm.
Or what was left of it.
If she had experienced any happiness from waking up, it was gone in a second. A thick, white bandage wrapped around the stub on her shoulder, stretching across her chest. Blood stained the entire bandage.
Wren gasped, trying desperately to catch her breath. She heard screaming, not realizing it was her. She saw Nico bolt upright.
"Will!" Nico yelled for his husband.
Will came running into the room, and his face fell when he saw her. "Oh gods, Wren."
Wren felt his warm arms wrap around her. "You're safe, honey." He whispered to her. "We're here. We're here."
"D-dad?" Wren managed to choke out. She felt salty tears roll down her cheeks and into her partly open mouth.
"Shh," he hushed her. "Shh, little one, you're safe. You're home." Will hugged Wren a little bit harder, trying to hold her as close as possible. He turned his head towards Nico, who stood near the bed, his face as dark as ash.
"Neeks, hun, go get Wren some water."
"But-"
"Nico," Will said firmly. He gently rubbed circles on Wren's back as she sobbed into his shoulder. Nico rushed out of the room.
"You're all right, sweetie, you're safe. I've got you." He continued to soothe her.
Wren pulled herself away from her father, grateful for his words. "Dad, why am I here?" She begged for answers. "Where are the others?"
"They're here. They're safe."
Wren nodded ever so slightly, tears stinging her eyes. She attempted to get up, but her father held her by the shoulders, trying to make sure she stayed in bed and got her rest.
"Dad," she protested, "I've got to go to the bathroom."
