So sorry for being gone guys, life has gotten in the way lately. Hope you all enjoy this :)
"Oh thank god..." Mal said softly as she relaxed against Ben. Knowing that Evie would be okay was like a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders. Like she could breathe again.
Biting his lip the doctor read through the second file he was holding. "Unfortunately the same can't be said for your mother..."
Mal instantly tensed and looked at the doctor again. "W... Wait... My mom is here?" She asked in shock as she looked at the doctor in front of her. Tearing up instantly as she clung to Ben. Her worry instantly returning as she panicked about what could have happened to her mother. "P... Please tell me she's alright..." She asked softly, her voice breaking slightly. Sure her and her mother had their differences in the past but they worked through them and they had a good relationship now.
"I'm afraid not Miss Faery.." Dr Sanders said softly as he looked at the clearly upset woman in front of him. Biting his lip softly. "She was brought in with a stab wound after being found in an alleyway." He explained as he read through the notes in the file he was holding. Sighing softly as he didn't want to overwhelm her but she also deserved to know as this was her mother he was talking about.
Biting her lip harder Mal looked at the doctor with tear filled eyes. "I... Is she okay..." she stammered softly, her vision blurring as her eyes filled with tears even more. She couldn't believe this, first Evie and now her mother.
Dr Sanders sighed softly as he read the notes one last time before looking up at the young woman. "No, I'm afraid not." He repeated softly, sighing gently as he placed the notes on the chair beside him. "She was unconscious when she was brought in. She lost in unhealthy amount of blood, indicating she had been stabbed some time ago and was just not found." He explained, feeling horrible when Mal began to cry. "I'm not sure how to say this... But she's in a coma right now. We don't expect her to wake up." He said as he looked at Mal before picking up his files. "I'll give you both a minute. I'll be outside if you would like me to take you to see her." He siad before leaving.
Hearing the door close Mal broke down into heartbroken sobs as she curled into Ben. Clinging to him tightly and sobbing into his shoulder. "W... Who wou... would do... do this..." She whimpered through her sobs. Beginning to shake from her emotions.
"I dont know Mal. I just don't know." Ben said softly as he held Mal close. Running his fingers through her hair as he attempted to calm her. Unsure of what he could say right now to help her. He hadn't ever had to handle anything like this before so he was at a complete loss.
Mal continued sobbing as she looked at Ben. "I... I want to... to see her..." She said softly through her sobs. Noticing Ben's unsure look she bit her lip. "I... I have to B... Ben..." She explained softly. Not waiting for him to answer she walked out of the room and looked ar Dr Sanders. "T... Take me t... to my mom..." She tried to say firmly but it came out more of a heartbroken whimper then anything.
Slowly Mal followed Dr Sanders through the halls of the hospital and into a private room. His hand moving to cover her mouth as she gasped, seeing her mother lying pale and motionless on the bed. "M... Mom..." She whispered through her sobs as she slowly walked into the room and over to her mother. Gently taking her mother's hand in her own she looked at Maleficent's pale face. "M... Mom... Please wake up... I n... need you..." She pleaded softly even though she knew it wouldn't change anything.
What Mal didn't notice was Dr Sanders telling her he would be back later. She simply stood holding her mother's hand as she sobbed. But after a while Mal did something she hasn't done since she was a child. She slowly climbed onto the bed with her unconscious mother and curled into her side. Sobbing heartbrokenly as she hugged her mother close. "Pl... Please wake u... up Mom..." She whimpered.
