Dwayne Clement's POV
"I will always find you, like Hades finding her Persephone in a world full of chaos."
Cold breeze brushed against my skin as the ambulance's sirens filled my ears. After the numerous stab wounds and a gunshot, the dark red-colored blood came sputtering out of her body like a waterfall, making pool of blood stuck on my wet body and wet shirt.
I climbed down from the car, lifted her body until I have reached the entrance of the hospital. The bell rang several times and nurses wearing blue colored shirts went rushing towards us.
They examined her body as I placed her at the stretcher. Mixture of my sweat and the water from my t-shirt dropped from the floor leaving traces of water into the pathway.
"What happened?" the nurse asked, gripping at her right hand as they scanned her using her LED pen light. Her hands landed to her neck, feeling her pulse.
"She's been shot," I said, grasping for her hand. I drew my lower lip between my teeth, trying to hold back my fears. I don't want to lose you... again.
A doctor came running towards her direction and said, "Check her vitals." I scanned her lab gown, showing her ID named 'Dr. Eon.'
"What's the name of the patient?" she asked.
"Zcyhie Elizabeth Fleuvis," I said. She halted for a while, then furrowed her eyebrows. She tilted her head a bit as if she was trying to remember something.
I averted my gaze back at Zychie. I surveyed her pale lips as her eyes were in deep slumber. I removed strands of her black wavy hair on her angelic face, showing hints of her freckles.
I really am in love with this girl. But I will not let someone take her away from me. I will get her back by hook or by crook.
I was taken aback when a blonde nurse named 'Carmen' placed a pressure at the stomach of Zcyhie, while the other nurse still observing her injuries and said, "The artery is still wiggling,"
"Code blue, she's losing blood!" a brown-haired nurse screamed, putting another pressure on her different injuries.
"You get over there, push," Dr. Eon said, pushing the stretcher towards the Emergency Room.
"Look at her pulse doctor, her heart needs resistance."
"Fluid resuscitate, large bore IV."
"Stop compressing till we can intubate"
"Got it?"
"Yeah."
My mouth snapped shut as I heard them exchange words. I ran my fingers on my hair as my jaw clenched. I followed them as I have reached the emergency room. A locket fell from Zcyhie's hand before her full body was engulfed by the door. I took a gripped on it, then I kept it on my pocket.
