Tory's POV
When I see the blue, I momentarily freak out. But then, I feel the pleasure. I close my eyes, as my nose kicks in to its wolf senses. I smell hot breath. Wet dog. Coop. I smell bacon from downstairs. Coffee. And somehow, I'm smelling the blonde bimbo's coconut shampoo. I'm enjoying the feeling when all of a sudden-
SNUP
I get dizzy, and fall backwards. I hit my head on the wood on my bed, and everything goes black.
Ben's POV
I'm getting Sewee ready when I here sirens. I see an ambulance flying up the road.
Hmm, I think to myself. How weird. But when the ambulance pulls up in front of Tory's complex, I find myself running. Fast. I fire up her steps and instinctively run to her bedroom. I see her in Kit's arms, her head bleeding. I automatically know she's unconscious. Kit looks at me when I storm in. "What happened!?" I ask/yell. He says with tears in his eyes, "I'm not sure. I heard a thud and then a scream. I ran up here to find h-her..." He puts his head down and I know he's crying. I start to say something, but the paramedics rush in. They pull me down the stairs, and into the living room. I'm not one to be told what to do, but I want them to get Tory to the hospital asap and I don't want to get in the way. When they bring her down the stairs on a stretcher, me and Kit say, 'Me' at the same time when they ask who'll accompany her in the ambulance. He just goes with it and we climb in the back. I text Hi, Shelton, and Ella.
Ben- Tory fell and hit her head. She's unconscious and we're on our way to the hospital
Hi- What?! I'm on my way.
Shelton- What the hell? Me and Hi are on our ways.
Ella- Shit! I'll meet you there.
I slip my phone into my pocket and grab her hand. I hold it until we get to the hospital where I'm forced to stay in the waiting room with Hi, Shelton, Ella, Kit, and Whitney. The doctor comes out, and I'm the first one to him. "How is she?" I ask. "She is in very stable condition. Just a concussion, nothing too serious," the doctor answers. "Where is she?" All I hear is, "Room 243" before I take off running, with my friends on my tail. Room 240, 241, 242, and finally, 243. I push the door open lightly, but to my surprise, it slams back against the wall. Hi looks at me. "What the hell is wrong with your eyes?" I practically growl, "What do you mean?" "They're blue! A-and you just barely touched the door and it flew open, and-" he suddenly stopped talking. He runs to the trashcan and throws up. "The smell... of blood..." He cuts off again." Shelton whispers, "I can hear her heartbeat." Although he whispers it, I hear every word crystal clear. I look in his and Hi's eyes, and see blue. "Are we, uh, flaring?" Hi asks. Shelton says, "I think so. But cut them. I hear footsteps."
SNUP
I stumble backwards, into a chair. I glance at Hi, who is on one knee and shaking, and Shelton, who is shaking in the chair next to me. I whisper, "That's what happened to Tory. She flared, and then lost it and fell." I move the chair next to the bed and grab her hand. Before I can control them, tears fall down my cheeks. "What just happened?" It was Ella. "Please tell me you did not just flare." She answers, "No I didn't flare." Shelton said, "It must be because she had a slightly different virus. But why do our eyes turn blue? And why does it feel like that when it shuts down?" No one got to answer, because Kit and Whitney walk in. Hi, Shelton, and Ella go to the cafeteria. I can't. I want to be here when Tory wakes up. For the past 10 minutes, she'll move and go, ' Mmmmm.' She's waking up. She opens her eyes, and barely whispers, "Hi guys." Kit crushes her in a bear hug, and so does Whitney. Tory didn't seem to mind. Kit says, "I'm gonna give you guys a minute." Then he pulls Whitney out of the room. I climb up on the bed next to her. "Hi, Shelton, and Ella are here." I say. She said, "I flared this morning. My eyes turned blue. I lost it and fell." Her head is on my chest, and I have my arms around her. "I know. Me, Shelton, and Hi all flared when the doctor told us where you were at. Ella said she didn't, so that's good." She starts to say something, but I lean down and cover her mouth with mine.
