Finding

New beginnings

White walls turned into flashes of color pain shocked throughout his body, white turning into grey before fading into black around him. He wasn't sure what was happening but he was fighting back, he got his hands on something before it all went black. It would have been his first fight lost, well since he lost his brother Leo. Ever since his brother had died he could barely hold himself up, he left his girlfriend his only friends he even stopped talking to his sister. His dad was gone like his mother and he had pushed away the only people that cared. He only had Leo left, his little brother with the green eyes and cold tattooed hands. He missed him more than anything, well almost anything. He swore to himself he would find Leo again. But first, he Had to stay alive. Fighting to open his eyes Nathan could feel his head throbbing and, heart stalling. Feeling the blood dripping down his bareback, warm and wet the smell just as sharp as he remembers it. Nathan pried his eyes open meeting eye to eye with a trash can. Blinking slowly he starts to look around careful not to move his head, the pain from just looking around was enough to make him want to just fade away. But he couldn't do that to Leo he didn't want him to feel forgotten for much longer, he just hopes his brother is still alive. it was the alleyway on 5th. It was easy to tell from the graffiti to the bar at the start of the alley. Nathan couldn't see his phone or any way to contact anyone. The sun was not coming soon and he knew the normal bar attendance wouldn't even give him a glace. Closing his eyes Nathan breaths slowly. It hurt to breathe he noted. With his next exhale he forced his head away from the wall and let it fall downwards. Hot pain shot down from his neck to his back, traveling through his spine. Opening his eyes he could see his arms and, his ribs. Nathan blinks again not wanting to believe what he sees. He had broken a rib hopefully not too many but at least one of them was sticking out of his skin. His right arm was numb on his side covered with red to his fingertips. The most likely broke it. Turning his eyes to his left arm, it wasn't as bloodied and he could still feel it. Nathan tries to start moving his middle finger first twitching it inwards towards his palm, jumping forward he tries moving his whole hand. Pain shot up his arm but he fought threw it moving his hand to touch his leg. 

"Left-arm working" 

Nathan mumbled he pulled his arm towards his face brushing his hair back into place. The pain had started to become sore and faded. He knew it was only because he can adapt easy but he shouldn't test himself right now. Using his left arm he picks up his left legs first. Thankfully no pain shot through him but he could see a few cuts to his shin. He reached over for his right leg lurching forward in pain he pulled his arm back a strangled noise coming out, he cut his thigh and badly from the feel of it. Leading back he slows his breath again and reaches for a different spot lifting his leg up. Besides the cuts on his thigh, he was okay for the legs. Nathan put his left arm onto the wall behind him leading onto his left leg he pushes himself up, a painful moan falls from his bruised lips along with ragged breaths. Standing to his full height he let his head fall backward, falling back onto the wall he looked towards the bar. Forcing himself to think back he can only hope the bouncer he remembers is still there, he needs him right now.

He starts to stumble to the bar using the wall to his advantage.  at the end of the alley, Nathan spits out whatever was in his mouth and turned to the bar. Hope started to settle into his body as he saw who he was looking for 6'4 curly hair dark skin and built like a brick house Dante stood at the door rubbing his hands together. Nathan couldn't see who was next to Dante but they seemed much smaller.

"Dante!...Dante!"

Nathan yelled the best he could his throat was dry and it hurt to yell but it did the job. Dante turned towards him the neon lights turning his dark skin purple and pink. Dante started running towards Nathan in a hurry the other bouncer leaning over but not moving from her spot. Dante runs off often for dogs so she did not pay mind.
