Back to life

Synopsis

I woke up suddenly when my head connected with the window and sideboard. It was a massive crack as I heard it. There was so much screaming and I could hear metal crunching as if the bus hit something. Danny and Donnie were holding onto the table as the bus rolled. Donnie hit the bottom of the table when he went down. Danny followed him onto the floor. But I can still look at Danny as I in slow motion got launched from my seat into the air. I hit the window on their side of the bus only to be thrown backwards. That's when my head connected with the window which was already cracked. I was still conscious when I flew out of the window as the bus flipped again. I prayed I didn't land underneath the bus. I did feel when I landed as there was a sharp pain in my stomach as something caught me there and my leg. I started to a cough and panic as I couldn't move. I was stuck and in a lot of pain. My leg felt like it was on fire there was so much pain. If someone asked me what my pain level out of 10 is, it was 15. I tried to call out for help. Every time I did it hurt and it hurt badly.

"Jon" a cough

"Donnie" a cough

"Danny" a cough

"Joe" a cough

"Help me guys" a cough

"This isn't funny now guys. Come out and help me". A cough. Whatever had me pinned down started to feel heavy. I can feel something wet on my body and clothing. It is raining. My vision was starting to go blurry and I started to have a sharp thumping headache. I could feel something run down my face. I am crying. I moved a hand that I could move up to my head. I looked at it, it was blood and a lot of it. I blacked out from panicking. I woke to see what I thought was blue flashing lights but they soon disappeared.

" Hey, I am here". A cough

"Don't leave me" a cough

"Don't leave me to die on my own"a cough

"Where are you, Jon?. Some brother you are". I passed out again from the pain. I don't know long I was there for under the wreckage but I was getting very cold. I was all alone out here to die. They left me some friends they are. I wondered what the news would be. My family, my wife and my boys, I wonder if they knew about me. I know I am dead, I feel it. All those poor fans grieving. I could see the other 4 look like they have been crying, puffy red eyes, explaining what happened.

I start to feel something lift off me. I feel lighter now. I am barely awake, barely conscious but I see blue flashing lights again. I can hear people.

"He is in bad shape. Just barely a pulse. Just barely alive. Need bandages to stop the bleeding in 4 places head, stomach and leg are the worst and there is one on his side too. Need to splint up his leg too. Be careful it's bleeding and looking mangled, may have to lose the leg, won't know until we get him to a hospital. Need a splint for his right arm. Put in a drip he is severely dehydrated. Need to be quick he's losing a lot of blood. He needs oxygen where's the mask. He's going into shock. Get him warm. Where's the chopper?. I thought they sent for a chopper?".

"It can't land so turned back. The ambulance is waiting".

I was barely alive but I could hear everything it was like I was out of my body and looking at me. There was so much blood. The thought makes me sick and I'm barely there.
