The cemetery was cold as ice, and i'm in a crop top with a skirt and tights. At least I have a coat, it's zipped up to my neck. Covering most of my torso, only my belt and down shows.
We walk past tombstones and to a small pit, Gonner using two sticks, one with a hole in it, and the other in the hole. He rubs the stick making it wizz side to side, after a while smoke starts comeing from it and finally a orangey yellow glow and embers fly up into the dark night sky.
Isis sits beside me shoulder to shoulder. The friendship bracelet on her wrist glistening in the fire glow. I got memorized in the burning logs. I start feeling woozie and tired, really tired, I was almost falling over, my fingers were freezing and my breath was fading ever so slowly.
It took all of my strength to hold myself up, and it felt like a blast of wind could knock me over. "Oh no dixie you're turning blue!" Isis says, but I could barely hear her over the ringing sound in my ears, I started getting dizzy, and then I almost fell to my side.
Isis had to grab my arm to hold me up and Gonner moved to sit beside me to keep me from falling the other way too. He pushed his shoulder to mine and put his arm around me holding me steady, they were both concerned, the look on their faces broke me.
Everything was blurry, the fire now a smudge instead of a sharp mangle of lines. A stick looking thing was held out in front of me "How many fingers I be holdin up lass?" Gonner asked, worry clear in his voice. "Uhm, five? No, four... I don't know." I say, my words slurred.
"Alright, we be needin to get her somewhere she can't get hurt, and where she won't fall, her pulse be slowing down, I don't know what from, but it's slowing fast." The words were muffled and my body was numb, from what I could see I was being carried somewhere. My eyelids were heavy, it was hard to keep my eyes open even a mere inch.
"It's alright lass, just go to sleep, we'll take care o' ye, it will be okay" a tear ran down my cheek as my life flashed before my eyes, and then, black.

I woke up with my head throbbing, "ouch!" I yellped as a sharp pain ran through my body. "Shhh, stay quiet, lay down fer a bit, it will pass" a soft voice rang from behind my head, a hand gently nudged me from my shoulder back down into something soft. "Mm, my head hurts so bad" I groan, "It's alright, just relax" the soft voice continued.Fingers ran through my short hair, comforting to the touch. "Gonner let her get up, she needs to get used to her surroundings, or she'll freak out" a girlish voice said, it only took a few minutes before I remembered, Gonner and Isis, everything came flooding back.
"Gonner, Isis, what happened? Last thing I remember is being picked up and then...nothing." I try and sit up but Gonners hand gently but firmly holds me down. "Gonner what the heck!?" Isis says defensively.
"Her headaches gotta go away first bucko calm down, it's only gonna get worse from you yelling your lungs out!" He snaps, he keeps threading his fingers through my hair and delivering comforting words, letting them pass through my ears.
I open my eyes slowly to see a while new graveyard, I recognize it, the holy graveyard. "Mm, holy crap. My whole body hurts what the fuck" I would've tried to get up but from the other tries i've proven to be unsuccessful in my attempts.
"Ugh, you're rediculous you putrid Caribbean scum!" Isis yells. "Jesus, Isis I love you but stop it you're worsening this axe of a headache" I say to her. Gonner smirks and Isis gives him a mean look.
"Looks like ye've been proven wrong then, again huh bucko?" He teases. "Shut up this is a two way street" I say tiredly, and eventualy fall back asleep. I wake up and it's dark, pitch black, my headache is gone. "Thank earth and sky" I mutter and sit up slowly. I rub my eyes and look around.
Gonner and Isis are sitting criss - crossed in front of me, watching me monouver around into a comfortable position. "Thank the gods you're okay!" Isis hugs me tightly, I hug her back. "Ay, lassies food, get over here before it be going cold!" Gonner shouts "Kay we'l be right over!" Isis shouts back at him. She helps me up and we walk to the fire. "Am I dead?" I ask Isis, she nods, having her mouth full of whatever their eating.
She hands me something on a stick. "Eat, you'll need it" Gonner nods actually agreeing with her for once in his life, or death. I eat the stuff, it's actually really good. "Nom nom" Isis remarks. I look at her in confusion and then burst out laughing, "what the heck!?" Isis is on the ground laughing and Gonner just looks at her disappointed.
"Oh my god you guys are the best!" I laugh and then fall on the ground next to Isis. Gonner eventually joins in too.
