A heavy weight suddenly added on to my already massive body I was about to open my eyes when a loud shriek made me jump up looking at where the noise came from. There was a small girl lying on the ground she looked as if she had tripped.
"I'm so sorry! OH!! Are you okay? Who shot at you!? Don't worry I'm in doctoring school I'll get you patched up can you walk?" She said quickly
I tilted my head at her. I didn't feel threatened by this girl, but I didn't feel a need to move. I watched her lips as she rambled on. I felt the need to try to make noise with my mouth so I repeated the last word she said.
"Kalk?" I said poorly
She stared at me for a second gawking at me. I wondered what she was thinking. I suddenly got tired of this silence and stood up, her falling off my legs in the process. I started walking off into the woods not looking back.
"Wait!!" Out of habit I looked in the direction of the sound, "You don't have to go. I have a house nearby I could patch you up and get you new clothes and all. Oh what am I rambling about its obvious by the look on your face you don't understand."
The girl stood up and grabbed my arm and pulled me in the other direction. I did not fight, I felt like I could trust her. I followed until we reached a small one-floor house. An ivory colored one might I add. She pulled me into the house.
She made me sit then pulled my shirt off and grabbed a wet cloth. She wiped off all the blood and inspected my scars. I watched her as her eyebrows crimpled up. I could tell she was confused. I tilted my head as if to ask why.
"I don't understand, all this blood seems recent and it's not dried up but all you have were it seemed to come out is a scar." She looked me in the eyes as she said this. "You should take a shower to clean off all the blood in your hair."
She pulled me into a small room in the house and turned a knob on a machine. Water rushed out as if it was meant to be there. I curiously felt it to see if it moved like water. I pulled away quickly when my hand started to burn.
"Ha ha. Yeah it's hot." She smiled and flipped her hair. I couldn't help but smile back.
She turned the other knob and the steam decreased. I watched her skill intently. She helped me remove my other clothing and motioned for me to get into the machine, I did as I was asked. Suddenly water started falling on me. At first I freaked out than I relaxed and let it fall. A few moments later after she scrubbed my head with some bubbly formula she pulled me out.
"I think I have my ex boyfriends cloths still. Until wear this." She handed me a cloth.
She walked out and I fallowed her leaving the cloth cast upon the floor. I watched her as she picked up more cloths. She turned around and squealed. Making me tilt my head once again.
"Uhhh… put this on!" She said casting the cloths at me then turning around.
I inspected what was in my hand. It had a hole in it. I looked at her; she was wearing cloths. I tired pulling the hole over my head but it didn't fit well and left me blind. I heard her turn around when I made a muffled sound of frustration. She took them off and placed my legs threw the holes, then placing another cloth on my legs after that. (A.N. Yes he did have underwear on his head. Take in the image)
After a while she left me in a room watching a machine. It called its self "House". On the show there was a group. One of them kept saying, "Drink, I need a drink." In turn she got a liquid substance in a glass. My mouth watered, and I realized I needed this kind of substance.
I turned to the girl who was behind me and said, "Drink, I need a drink" the girl blinked amazement was written in her face. She pulled me into a white room and opened a two-door machine and pulled out a drink and handed it to me. I sat at the table, guessing it was designed for that.
"You have a name?" She said making hand signs and talking slow. "I am Gale." She said motioning to herself. "You are?" motioning to me.
"Gale." I motioned to her. "Gale?" I motioned to myself.
"No. No. I am Gale. Who are you?" She motioned to me again.
I tilted my head in confusion. I finished the last of my drink and placed it down just like the girl on the machine. I stared at Gale for a moment until she broke the silence.
She smiled, "I'll call you Jake, I've always liked that name." She motioned to me "Jake." Then she motioned to herself. "Gale."
Jake? I didn't know what to think of the name, but when Gale smiled I couldn't help but smile back. I couldn't help but wonder what Gale completely saying. I knew one thing, I was Jake, and she was Gale.
A.N. I got so many names that I had to have my family vote on what name would be Mystery guy's. The other names, like Gale, will appear later in the story. Thank you fellow readers.
