Mitch woke up, he felt like his body was ready to give out. He felt something warm pressed up against his side and he lets out a shaky breath. He coughs, turns his head to see Jessica asleep against his right side. Sweat glistened off his pale skin, a cold damp towel is folded up and laying on the pillow beside his head. He coughs again, closing his eyes, he shivers violently. Jessica picks her head up off his shoulder.
"M-Mitch? Mitch!" Jessica cried. Mitch wheezes, his raw throat stinging him with pain, she sits up. She picks up the towel and presses it against his forehead. "It's okay. It's okay. Hold on, I'll get your medicine." She gets off the bed. She goes to the nightstand and uncovers a lantern more, lighting up the dark and compressed room more. Katherine is on the other side of the room, sleeping and Jessica has a bandage on her left leg that is stained with blood. Mitch coughs more and wheezes, pain ripples through him from his back. He turns his head again, groaning loudly from the pain, the towel falling from his forehead. Jessica opens up the wrap, seeing that it is empty. Her eyes widen. 'Oh no. That was the last of his medicine?' Jessica thought. She glances at him. She grabs the towel and presses it on his forehead.
"Mitchell, stay still. Stay still. Katherine." Jessica looks behind her. "Katherine!" Katherine flinches, waking up. She sits up, rubbing her eyes. "Katherine, go wake up Jerome and them." Katherine looks over at them, seeinf Mitch awake.
"Is Daddy okay?" She asks. Jessica nods. She crouches down to Katherine's level, she touches Katherine's hands.
"Daddy is gonna be just fine, but I need you to go get General Jordan, remember him? He has red sunglasses and a black beard?" Jessica asks.
"Sparklez?" Katherine asks. Jessica smile a little and nods.
"Yeah. Please go get him and get Jerome as well sweetie." Jessica said. Katherine gets off her small bed, but she looks at Mitch. Her eyes look at the table that has bloodied bandages, medical supplies and the remains of Mitch's shirt.
"I-Is Daddy gonna d-die?" Katherine asks shaky. Jessica shakes her head and her head touches Katherine's cheek.
"No. No. Sweetheart, he is gonna be okay. We are gonna take care of him, he needs us to be strong right now. And Daddy needs Jordan and Jerome here...can you please do that for him?" She asks. Katherine nods and than leaves. Tears fall down Jessica's cheeks. Mitch tries to speak, but he could get out the words and when he tried to move, his body wouldn't respond. She stands up and goes to Mitch. She notices his shallow breathing. She feels his fingers touch her knee and she looks down, taking his hand into hers. "I'm right here." Mitch cracks open his eyes, he takes slow breaths. He closes his eyes. "What is it? Take your time."
"It....i-it...h-hurts.." Mitch weakly said. Jessica squeezed his hand.
"I-I know. Jerome is gonna go get you medicine." Jessica said. Mitch's grip on her hand loosens, his breathing slows down as he slips back into unconsciousness around the same time a very exhausted yet full of energy Jerome runs inside the room.
"What?! What happened?! Is Mitch okay?!" Jerome asks in a blind panic. Jessica looks at him. Jerome calms himself, looking at Mitch. He went to go get medicine only to find none. Jerome's eyes widen, he looks at Jessica.
"He'll die without medicine." She said softly. Jerome looks at Mitch.
"I'm glad Katherine didn't get hurt during the attack, but why Mitch? Why did you let yourself get this badly injured?" Jerome asked softly. Lachlan comes in, carrying Katherine on his back.
