The Legend Of Misty Hollow

Chapter Seven

"I awaken to see a bright light in my face.

"I think she's waking up..." I faintly hear.

I open my eyes to see Alaska's mascara coated face crying with joy and sadness. I sit up.

"Haven, wake up." Says Tre, nudging Haven.

"He has been out here since we brought you here." Tre says to me.

"How, how long was I out?" I ask. "Two days." Alaska says behind Tre. Two days?!?! How much did I miss? I wonder.

"Nikki!!" I hear next to me. Haven is awake. He gives me a big hug and kisses me on the cheek.

"I was so worried you were going to turn into..." he pauses. I return his hug and he lets me go. I look down to my hand. It is wrapped.

"What did you do?" I ask. Everyone fell silent. Oh no. I think.

"Tre, do you want to tell her?" Haven asks Tre carefully. Tre nods. He comes over to me, and grabs my right hand, the one that isn't wrapped.

"Nikki, the only way we could think of stopping the disease was to..." he looks back at Haven. He has tears in his eyes.

"Was to what?" I grab the collar of Tre's shirt and pull him down so his eyes meet mine.

He gulped. "We had to... cut off your arm."
