Chapter 2: Save
A/N: Ok, here's chapter Nr. 2. It's bad, I know. But the next ones will get better, promise.
I opened my eyes. Everything was blurry and white. The blackness was gone and I was looking into something that looked like a Neon light. Was I back in the bathroom? I blinked but it wouldn't get clearer. I looked around a little bit and saw some metal colored shapes. Where the fuck was I now? Was this another one of Jigsaw's sick games? Was I back in that fucked up bathroom? But I couldn't hear Adam crying. Instead I heard a female's voice speaking, her words echoing. I couldn't understand what the woman said, but it sounded very serious.
Fuck. . . I thought. I blinked again. Everything got a bit clearer. I was in a small room, probably lying in some bed. I was scared, I didn't know this room. But I knew the voice in some way, it was so familar and it gave me a feeling of being save.
Suddenly the pain came back, but it wasn't that hard anymore. Actually it didn't hurt more than if I would have been scratched by a cat.Was I dying? But Adam, I had to save him, I couldn't die now. I had to get out of here, out of Jigsaw's sick game, I had to get help for me and Adam and I had to save my family. I tried to move, it was difficult and the pain got harder again, but I managed to struggle a little bit.
The woman stopped talking and it seemed to me like she was looking down on me now because I could see the shapes of her face that looked even more familar to me.
She said something with a very quiet voice now, apparently she was talking to me, but I still wasn't able to understand her. I struggled once more and blinked a few times. The things I saw got clearer again and the first voice I heard was a little girl's voice, my daughters voice. . .
"Mommy, is Daddy waking up?"
"Yeah, honey, I guess so.", the familar voice belonged to my wife. I looked up into her face and yes, there she was. I tried to say something but my mouth was so dry I couldn't say a word.
"Shh. . . Don't talk.", she said and touched my cheek softly. Tears began to well up in my eyes, but they weren't tears of fear and pain, they were tears of nameless relief and happiness. My family was save. There was my daugther. I reached out to touch her hand. She smiled.
"Daddy, I'm so glad you're back here with us!", she said and hugged me.
"Be careful, honey.", I heard Allison say.
"Sorry, Daddy, I didn't mean to hurt you.", Diana said.
"It's ok.", my voice sounded hoarsely, but at least I managed to talk again. "Am I in hospital?"
"Yeah, honey. We thought you were dead, and. . .", she stopped and it seemed that she couldn't go on anymore because she was fighting back tears.
I took her hand. "It's ok, Allie. It's ok.", I whispered. "I'm here with you and I'm alive. I love you Allie. I'm so glad that I've got you and Diana. I feel like the happiest man in the world."
Tears were running down her cheeks and she nodded. "I love you, too", she whispered back.
This moment Veronica, a nurse, came in and told my family to go. "He needs some rest.", she said.
"No, Veronica, it's ok, I'm fine again."
"No, no, no, you need some sleep, Dr. Gordon." I smiled. Veronica was one of the best and most caring nurses I know.
I kissed my wife goodbye and Diana gave me a hug. "I love you, Diana.", I said when she left the room. "I love you, too, Daddy."
I closed my eyes. Everybody was save now, I told myself and smiled. I slowly fell asleep, feeling save again, after spending hours in hell, too weak and tired to think any longer.
