"One must always be careful with books and what is inside them for words have the power to change us" - Tessa Gray, The Infernal Devices
London woke up startled from the memory, I was covered in sweat and tears (blood, sweat and tears sorry I just had do that ~ Cathy).
"Sweetheart you're awake!" the nurse exclaims taking off the breathing tube off London.
"W-what happened?" London asked her throat dry and voice hoarse.
"You got in a crash" The nurse says in a sorrowful voice
A crash? London thought, that was when the memories came flooding back. Panicking London asked "Where's Data, Is she alright!?"
"Who?" The Nurse asked
"Jane Doe, is there another Jane Doe in the hospital she has bright reddish orange hair, pale skin, and has dark brown eyes almost considered to be black, she wears black glasses but they probably broke and she was the other victim of the crash" London says
"I'll go ask the desk if they can find her room number" the nurse says as she walks out mumbling something in between the lines of 'I don't get payed enough for this job'.

Data wakes up with heavy breathing as she looks around at the plain gray walls of the hospital room. She pulls off the iv tube slowly standing up stumbling a bit.
"Get back in bed you're still hurt!" a voice screeches startling Data as a nurse comes into view.
"I'm fine" Data says
"No you are not now go back" the nurse says putting her hands on her hips she had long grey hair and was plump
Ignoring the nurse "Have you seen a girl with dark brown hair, brown eyes?" Data asks
"Look I'll find her, if you go back to your room!" the nurse says
"Fine" Data says going back inside her room
A few minutes later the nurse comes back in asking "Is your friend named London?"
Data nods "yes"
"She's in room 103 before" Cutting the nurse off Data runs out of the room to find London
~<>~
London stares up at the plain ceiling thinking about the flashback. The sound of her hospital room door opening snaps her out of her thoughts as she sees Data running towards giving her a hug.
"You're alive" She and Data say at the same time
"We have to get out of here" London says
"Before the nurses come back-through the window" Data says ready to jump out
"Uh Data my leg is broken" London says
Data rolls her eyes picking London up. "Jesus Christ how strong are you?" London asks as they go out the window.
"Also how are you not hurt?" London asks
Data ignores her question just continuing to walk. "Do you even know where you're going?" London asks arching an eyebrow.
"Nope" Data says
"Put me down Data, Let me call someone to get us a place for the night" London says
Data sighs putting London down on the grass. "Thank you" London says
London pulls out her phone dialing a number as she starts speaking in Italian to the person. After what sounds like thank you in Italian she cuts off the call putting her phone back in her pocket.
"So where are we staying?" Data asks
"Holiday Inn it's a few blocks away" London says
"Right" Data says walking towards the hotel
"Uh little help here?" London asks
"Sorry" Data says turning around picking up London and going towards the hotel again
~<>~
Almost half an hour passes of them walking down a quite road they come upon an old hotel. "This is it." London says as Data puts her down on a bench "Stay here, I'll go check in." Data says walking into the hotel.
A few minutes pass of London sitting outside in the cold and finally Data comes out picking London back up and caring her to the elevator, they got a few strange looks while they were walking through the hotel, but surprisingly not as many as they expected, they reach the 3rd floor walking out the elevator door they come upon a door that opens to an old dusty hotel room.
~<>~
Data looks at phone as the bathroom door opens revealing London hopping on a bed. "I need my laptop but I left it at the house." London whines."You can use mine." Data says continuing to stare at her phone.
"Well, could you at least pass it to me?" London asks as she takes out a book, Data throws the laptop over next to London.
"Thank you." She says opening it up and logging in. A few minutes pass of London staring deeply at the computer and eventually shutting it down passing it back to Data.
"I'm going to sleep." London says before turning off the light and going under the soft covers "Night" She says yawning.
"Night" Data mutters as she continues to look at her phone. "Dammit." Data mutters before putting down her phone on the nightstand and going to sleep.
~<>~
Data gets woken up by the sound of the door knob shaking. "London?" Data whispers getting out of her bed quietly "London!" Data says slightly louder shaking London.London yawns "What?" She asks half asleep.
"I think someone's trying to break in." Data whispers looking over at the door knob,
London quickly gets out of her bed looking at it "What do we do?" London panics trying to keep quiet.
"I don't-" Data gets cut off by the door opening revealing two men in suits it had only been a few seconds before everything went black.
