Prompt 29: Pain

The worst kind of pain was the kind Terran was presently experiencing. It was so bad that he couldn't eat, he couldn't sleep, and he couldn't even speak more than a few words. But he was too stubborn to ask for help, for who could give it? He was alone.

Alone in his suffering.

Of course, if he'd just go to the dentist his toothache would be easily remedied.
