Martin Mystery

Time heals all wounds

Chapter Three

Disclaimer: I do not own Martin Mystery, I am just a fan.

Summary: It has been three years since their disappearance; no one had ever been able to find them. Most just assumed them dead, but…what really happened?

A/N: My first Martin Mystery fanfic, go easy on me.

"Frozen in Time"

He ran. He ran, carrying her through the forest, he didn't care if he was naked anymore…this was a matter of life and death. This was a matter of her well being. She started to shiver against him.

"It hurts…it hurts…" she kept mumbling. Tears threatened to fall from his eyes, but he knew they wouldn't…he had cried his eyes dry every time that man has taken her. The things he did to her were abominable. He didn't think anyone could be that evil. When he would bring her back and lock them in that cave together…she would crawl into his arms and cry against his chest and she would tell him what had happened. Then after she had fallen asleep…he would tend to her wounds the best he could. Mostly…he would use what he had left of his clothing and when he ran out of that…he used his tongue. It may sound sick and terrible, but what would you do in this situation?

"I know it hurts…I'll get help…" Just as he whispered those words, he hit something. He hit something hard and large. The two of them screamed and he started to crawl the other way, trying his best to keep the girl with him, but the thing they had run into held them down.

"Please…Please…don't hurt me…" The girl begged, she felt around her and gripped the boy's hand in hers. The boy said nothing.

"Martin? Diana?" A woman's voice asked.

"Who is there?" The girl on the ground questioned. She opened her eyes in a fake attempt to see who was standing over them, but she was blind. Her eyes had been like that since a few years ago when that man had done something to her. She still hadn't told the man that lay beside her that story, and she never would.

"Oh my goodness…" A high voice said, "Java…get them…look at the condition there bodies are in…who would do such a thing?"

"Who knows…they've made a lot of supernatural enemies," the woman said.

"What did this…was not supernatural…" the man whispered, "It was human." Then he took a deep breath as if to say something else, but he never opened his mouth again.

"It hurts…" The girl whispered, letting her eyes close.

"I can't even imagine what these two have been through…out here for three years…alone…" The woman said, but all questions would be answered soon enough.

Java laid the two of them down on a cold operating table and the doctors got to work, pulling out shards of broken glass and doing tests on the bodies of the two that lay there. Their bodies looked so…unnatural…some of their skin had been burned, but not bad enough that the scarring couldn't be hidden. Their hair had mud and leaves stuck in it, not to mention it had been butchered…plus the man they think is Martin has grown a beard, but just as their bodies had similar gashes and things…they had different ones too. 'Diana' had human bite marks on her neck, chest and thighs…it looked like she had been raped repeatedly. Martin had numerous gunshot wounds that had gotten infected from where he had to pull the bullet out himself and wrap something around it that was later used to clean Diana's wounds.

"I'm surprised they lived this long…" one of the doctors said. The other doctors agreed.

Once they had finished the operation, which included the hiding of some of the burn marks and scars, they sprayed the two of them down with water, to reveal that the two that lay there on the table, side-by-side were indeed…Martin and Diana. Everyone turned and looked at the person next to them and then they all cheered. This was a remarkable discovery, people even started to cry.

"We've found them…finally after all these years."

A/N: I'm a really boring writer, I know…get over it.
