Chapter Three,
Her eyes fluttered open, Dr. McPhee breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Ms. Graiman," he said, "You're awake."
Sarah rubbed her forehead as she sat up on her bed, "What happened?"
"Someone called the hospital, said that an accident happened," the doctor explained, "we came as soon as possible Ms. Graiman, and my medical crew found you in your car, your head was bleeding."
Sarah grunted, feeling her bandaged head. KITT must've saved her from the fall, and called the hospital, but it confused her so that an unknown force made her fall off the balcony - but why? She didn't know. Suddenly, she wondered how of the doctor knew of her name.
"Wait, how do you know my name?" she questioned the man.
He replied, "We saw your name on a tag on your suitcase Ms. Graiman. We also called your father."
"How did you...?"
"I'm sorry, I should have told you that we also brought in the police to investigate. They found your cell on the balcony, and blood on the railing - we figured that's how you hit your head. It must have been from all the snow that you slipped. We decided to let a relative know what had happened, that's the best thing to do, wouldn't you agree Ms. Graiman?"
Sarah stiffened, she knew what was coming up next, and she didn't like it. Those damn detectives will ask her questions, and she hated being questioned - it bothered the living soul of her. But yet again, she too was wondering what had caused her to almost fall to her death.
She decided to answer, "Yes."
"You were very lucky Sarah," Dr. McPhee stated, "your convertible vehicle was parked at the right place at the right time."
A convertible...Sarah figured that KITT transformed into the new program she had installed into his systems. She nodded in agreement with Mr. McPhee and stood up from her bed.
A moment later, while descending down the stairs, Sarah came face with investigators, who started throwing questions at her. Was there anything unusual about the house when you first came in? Did you accidentally slip and hit your head, Ms. Graiman? Do you remember anything about what happened? She tried to answer professionally, but other things were going through the auburn woman's mind, things that she couldn't let the police know. Not now, at least. And soon after, the police officers, medical officers, wrapped up and left. The crowd of people who had been standing in front of the mansion had also left shortly after the officers disappeared, and Sarah was left to ask herself questions of her own.
"Sarah, you have awakened." KITT's soft voice through her earpiece calmed her, "Yes KITT, and thank you."
There was silence, then, "Not a problem, Sarah. I heard your cry of pain and quickly came to assist you, and saw you falling from the balcony. I quickly transformed into the new Convertible you have installed, and turbo boosted to save you."
Sarah smiled, "Again, thank you, KITT."
"I do not like the atmosphere of this house, Sarah." KITT said so suddenly it made Sarah stop smiling.
"What do you mean, KITT?" Sarah walked over to a light switched and flicked it on.
"It feels insecure, you were attacked and there were no footprints in the house or at the scene of the crime but yours, Sarah." the AI explained. Sarah stiffened, and her eyes widened in fear. Right before her eyes like a flash of memories, Sarah saw a ghostly figure dive for her, she heard herself cry out in pain, and she saw herself being thrown off her feet and flying through the air, then she was falling.
Sarah pitched forward as her legs gave away, she tried to grab onto something and knocked a nearby table over, causing the vase and picture frames on the wooden furniture fall and break.
She heard KITT, "Sarah!" he cried out to her.
"KITT," Sarah managed to gasp out, "I need to tell you something."
Sarah closed the door to KITT and sighed, she stared at the dashboard. There was no response at first, then, "I'm glad that you are not hurt, Sarah."
"KITT, I know that you'll probably think I'm crazy, but I think this is something that you should know." Sarah said, "Well back when I was a kid I would feel this strange atmosphere around me, and I saw... things."
"Things," KITT repeated, "what kind of things Sarah?"
"Things I'm not suppose to be seeing, the supernatural," Sarah sighed, "I... I don't know how but I would see ghosts, demons - they weren't illusions, I could see them!"
"I believe you Sarah, I have researched something like what you are experiencing right now, during a time when I was 'bored' as people put it. Perhaps you are psychic?"
"It disappeared a long time ago, why did it come back now?" Sarah asked herself.
"Sarah, does your father know about this?"
"Yes, and only him."
"I suggest that you inform him before it gets worse-"
"No KITT, I don't want him to worry. I've gotten rid of it before, I can get rid of it again." Sarah said; determined.
"How did you get rid of it?"
"At first I would tell people that I saw things, then my dad said to ignore it, and it'll go away, and I did. A friend at school came up to me one day and asked if I was still seeing things, I said no, and a few days later, I didn't see anymore." Sarah turned to the dashboard, "It was over."
Sarah looked up, and help he could not, KITT could only stare at the auburn haired scientist.
