Hey everyone! I have to sadly say that this is the shortest chapter in the history of short chapters. I have no clue what happened here but I only noticed how short it was till I uploaded it on to here. Soooo to make up for it I will probably upload another chapter alot sooner than what I usually do. So I'm gonna stop talking and trying to make the chapter look a little bit longer and let you all read.
Enjoy~
I must have not been out that long because it was still raining and still pretty dark outside. The hopes of my face and arm not being broken were also crushed. The only thing that woke me up was a very light vibration in my back pocket. With my one good arm, I reached behind to my back pocket and pulled out my phone.
7 missed calls and 15 text messages.
'Wow, I must be pretty popular.' I joked to myself.
I tried to scroll through all my contacts and found Lissa's name and pressed call.
Her voice sounded heavenly but also heavy with sleep. "Rose? It's 3 in the morning. What's wrong?"
"Hey." my voice was raspy and horse. I was also surprised I could move my mouth. "I need your help."
"What happened?" her voice was filled with worry almost immediately.
"Leo wasn't very nice."
"What did he do?"
"I'll tell you later but I need you to pick me up now."
I could hear movement in the background. She was probably getting ready. "Where are you?"
"You remember where that nail salon I took you is?"
I could hear voices in the background. I was hoping that she didn't wake anyone else up. "Yeah."
"I need you to go down to a restaurant that's in the same mini mall and down an alley. There should be a tree lined meadow. That's where I'll be."
"Ok I'll be there soon."
"Wait. Lissa?"
She paused. "Yes?"
"Get Damen and Marisol as well."
She quickly said ok and hung up the phone. I closed my eyes trying to think of something— anything that would at least calm down this massive migraine I was getting. The rain was staring to light up. I opened my eyes and noticed that the sun was starting to rise from what I could tell from above the trees. There was a little orange and purple mixing together. I closed my eyes once more; hoping once again, that time would go by quicker.
"Rose! Rose! Wake up! Please!" I hear a feminine voice in the background. She sounded far away but I could tell she was right by me.
"What if she—" Someone started.
"Shut the fuck up! Don't you dare say anything like that! She's gonna be okay, she's go—gonna—" The girl's sobbing started and it seems that it couldn't be controlled.
"Come on. Let Damen take care of it. Dimitri and Christian will help." this voice sounded familiar as well, almost like Marisol's.
"No! I can help! I can heal her." Lissa's voice. I wanted to open my eyes but I was too tired. Too weak to do anything.
"Lissa," Christian began. "let us at least get her somewhere other than on the wet ground."
I don't know what she said but she must have complied. I felt hands on my legs and shoulder. Once whoever touched my shoulder, it was like an excruciating pain that was completely impossible to describe. I screamed loud. I still couldn't even open my eyes. Marisol screamed and I then heard Lissa consoled her.
"Damen." This time is was Dimitri that spoke. "Since you have some type of power with illusions, could you make the bench bigger so we can set Rose
down?"
"On it." I heard footsteps walking over in a farther direction. There was silence and then I felt both Christian and Dimitri moving me. The pain in my shoulder was still there, without a doubt but I was learning to tolerate set me down on what felt like an abnormally large bench. The pressure was lifted from my shoulder but there was still the painful burning sensation on both my entire arm and face.
"Everyone," It sounded like Damen started talking. "we need to work fast. Rose is a Half-Blood now, her body is going to try and heal itself."
"Isn't that a good thing?" Christian asked.
"It's going to heal the way its formed right now." He explained even further.
If I could have moved my face, I would have had the look of pure and utter terror written all over it.
"Then let me heal her." said Lissa. She sounded like she calmed down and regained her composure.
"There's the problem, if you heal her then it will do the same thing to her, if her body was going to heal on its own."
"Then what are we suppose to do then?" this was Dimitri, that by the sounds of it was getting impatient.
I heard Damen sigh. I then heard footsteps coming closer to me, his voice gentle and soft. "Rose, if you can hear me, move any part of your body."
I then moved my hand on my left arm to tell him I could hear everything that he was saying.
"Okay, what we are about to do is going to extremely painful and will take a very long time. I'll use my powers as much as I can to make you think that there is any pain but I don't know how long that will last."
"Damen," Marisol started carefully. "what are you going to do?"
Damen sighed once again but this time it was even deeper. "We're going to have to try and reconstruct the broken bones in her body."
