'scuse the awfulness, unbetta'd.
Hushed voices pushing through the static in silence met her ears as her conscious slowly climbed its way into wakefulness. She dared not open her eyes yet, you could never know who was there, and perhaps she could hear what those quiet voices were trying so hard to keep quiet.
"It's not her fault" the soft voice of a woman filtered through the static, calm and wise. The gravely sound of an older healer broke through and over the woman's.
"We've never seen this before; it could be a break-out of some unknown disease"
"Oh no! She could take out millions with this!" a panicked man replied.
"I tell you, her mother was insane, it's got to be the only reason!" then a hushed "oh be quiet you. Everyone knows that isn't true." From the soft sounding female again.
"Shut up you idiots, she's woken up." The girl sighed and slowly opened her luminous grey-blue eyes.
"Hello" she said dreamily "what's going on?" she slowly propped herself up on her elbows, ignoring the protests of the healers surrounding her and the vibrant pain of leather lined metal cuffs snapped around her forearms and stomach.
"Good morning Luna." That soft voice from before echoed around Luna's head as she began to thrash against the metal restrains.
"SHUT UP!" she screamed, her voice ragged and aged "I HATE YOU. LET ME GO!!!" she flicked her fingers violently, as if believing her wand would fly into her hand with a nonverbal spell.
"Luna, I'd like to ask you to calm down, you're elevating all the levels we'd really love you to not elevate." The woman's calm, soothing voice wrapped around Luna's anger, edged the giant cloud of angry red back till Luna could see through the mist, till her vision returned to normal and she stopped thrashing. "There's a good girl, what a sweet little girl, very good." The woman leaned forwards and gently tucked Luna back into the bed. "Thank you Luna" she said pleasantly. Luna frowned, a bit of the red anger edging in on her vision again.
"Whatever." She snapped. Suddenly, Luna shrunk back, her eyes becoming haunted and her skin sallow. "Where am I? Where is Daddy? I want my Daddy." Luna burst into tears and turned her head to the side, hiding her face as best as she could in her pillows.
"Luna, you know your father can't come see you right now. You know this. Please, just…talk to us Luna." The woman leaned forwards just slightly from where she sat on Luna's left and smiled gently. "Come, come Luna, you're so close." And instantly, the red mist was back, wafting in like the morning mist rolling down the vibrant green hills of Luna's home in the early morning. She was surrounded and consumed instantly.
"NO! I HATE YOU!" Luna thrashed forwards, teeth snapping viciously at the air where the female healer's fingers had just been advancing forwards to lie comfortingly on Luna's shoulder. The healer sighed and scooted back. She stared at Luna's thrashing body and waved her wand gently over the girl who instantly stopped thrashing and closed her eyes.
"Good night Luna. Perhaps when we next meet, you will be more agreeable."
