Enjoy!
She remembered falling. She remembered watching Ralph and Vanellope make it out in time before the mountain erupted. She remembered the boiling heat that enveloped her whole body when it happened. She remembered screaming.
And then she was here. Being held down by strangers as she still continued to scream.
"Calm down! Listen to me! You're okay!" one of the men yelled at her.
Where was she? Where was Ralph? Vanellope? Calhoun and Felix?
"Let go!" she screamed but it came out as a hoarse whisper.
"Get the sedation" the one that told her to calm down told his partner.
Sedation?
Then she felt the tiny prick at the base of her neck. Her body began to relax and it allowed her to focus for a moment to actually look around the place and at the men. She was in a hospital? Why was she in a hospital?
The next time she woke up she didn't scream instead she looked around to make sure she didn't dream of being in a hospital. When she realized everything was real, she almost expected someone to walk in and say the famous "Oh finally awake I see" but of course that doesn't really happen in real life unless it's by accident. Slowly she sat up wincing when she applied pressure on her right hand she looked down at it and saw it bandaged up to her shoulder.
"The hell is going on?" she muttered to herself, slowly getting out the hospital bed and being carefully not to pull on the IV that was stuck in her arm making her way over to the window. One glance out and she realized something….this was…she was back in her world? But how? She slowly walked to the door and opened it making her way to the receptionist's desk at the end of the hall rolling the IV stand with her.
"Excuse me?" she called out softly. She needed water her throat was burning like she hadn't had water in years along with cotton mouth…okay maybe that was exaggerating it a bit but it's what it felt like.
"What can I do for you sweetie?"
"Um…where am I?" she asked carefully. The woman at the desk looked at her strangely, her fingers twitching to call a nurse to escort her back to her room no doubt "I know I'm in a hospital, but which one?" she said quickly. The woman relaxed and began to tell her the things she wanted to know.
"Can I use that?" Shay pointed at the phone "I want to make a call"
"Go ahead, just make sure to dial 9 first, followed by the area code" the lady told her pushing the phone closer to her and then went to help another patient. Shay nodded and dialed the number she was half dreading to call, waiting patiently as it rang a couple time. Finally on the fourth ring they picked up.
"Mom?" she said quietly and winced when she heard her mother begin to sob unable to find words.
It only taken thirty minutes for her mother to get to the hospital she was at and she wasn't alone, her sister, her brother, her stepdad and even her sister's boyfriend had come with her mother. But I guess that was to be expected they were worried about her. After all she had been in a coma for the past week and half. The doctor had explained to her what happened, well not what happened more of what she was diagnosed with when they brought her in. So naturally when her family was in the room, hugs were exchanged and tears were shed (mainly her mother), but when that was over she immediately turn to her sister and asked her the one question that was burning in her mind since she had woken up the second time.
"What happened?" she asked.
"What's the last thing you remember?" her sister asked her carefully.
"Trying to start the movie" Shay answered. When she saw her sister frown she knew something was wrong. "What? What I say?" she asked.
"You never came back inside Shay?" Her little brother commented.
"What are you talking about?" she asked confused.
"When you went out to fix the breaker" her sister began "You never came back inside"
Shay laughed "Very funny, but I remember coming inside and trying to play the movie remember it kept freezing on the arcade part"
"Shay you didn't come inside!" her sister insisted "You were taking so long to fix the breaker I went out to see it I could help you but I found you on the ground unconscious, your right arm covered in electrical burns"
"But…" Shay whispered letting the information sink into her slowly. Had she imagined everything up? No, she couldn't have everything felt too real. Ralph he felt too real. "…I see" was all she managed to say.
"The doctor said if you're feeling strong enough we can take you home" her mother tried to change the subject and brighten the mood.
"Home?" she muttered. Why was it that word felt so out of place when she was already home. She chuckled sadly. It's funny that when she first arrived at Hero's Duty that was the only thing she wanted to do was get back home to her family and now…now all she wanted was to go back to her friends she apparently imagined to be real…and Ralph. How could that have been fake? Their touches and kisses, how could all that have been fake?
"Shay?" she snapped out of her thoughts when her mother called out softly wiping a tear she hadn't even known she had cried.
She smiled weakly and swallowed the lump that had begun to form in her throat "Let's go home" she forced herself to say. No matter how wrong those words seem to sound when she said it to her family.
Don't worry this is not where the story will end! Please review!
