Narration: Previously on "The Mystery of Mysterion". We find out Lucifer is immortal as well…that's really about it, oh well back to the story
Chapter 7: Her only hope
Kenny's P.O.V.
I rushed into Hell's Pass Hospital with so many emotions and thoughts running through my mind: Is she ok? I hope she's not upset, I let her down…
"Doctor!"
I called to random doctor in front of the elevator
"Do you know if Karen McCormick is alright?"
"Oh…well I'm sorry to say this but-but she passed away last night"
Suddenly everything around me just seemed to shatter…I let her down
"MY BABY, MY BABY IS GONE!"
My mother wailed
"Karen…no"
I began to tear up
"Nah I'm just kidding, she's fine we like to have fun here at Hell's Pass have you seen my Facebook page?"
I went from sad to pissed in 2.2 seconds
"MOVE ASSHOLE!"
I screamed as I pushed him out of the way and I entered the elevator with my family. God why was everyone in this hospital such a dickhead? My dad confronted him
"I should report you for that! What is your name?!"
"Dr. Giant Douche Bag"
"Come on dad!"
I called and he got in the elevator. The elevator reached the second floor and I hesitantly entered Karen's room. I saw her sitting up, resting her back on her pillow. She was so still I thought she really was dead until I saw her blink
"Um hey Karen…"
She didn't respond
"How are you doing?"
Nothing
"Karen? Karen its mommy, how are you doing sweetie?"
She stayed silent as she just looked straight ahead holding her pink teddy bear.
"Oh McCormicks…you're here"
He said with a degree of disgust
"Shut up asshole"
My dad retorted before my mom asked
"What's the matter with her doctor?"
"It's her hope, Mrs. McCormick"
A lump formed in my throat
"Her hope?"
"Yes we performed an x-ray examination to find her hope but we couldn't find anything, it's almost as if…she lost it"
"Is-is that bad?"
"Very, her entire body might go through depression and since the body has lost all hope it will just shut down. She needs a hope transplant but trying to find a patient with hope in a hospital is harder than finding a dog by a Chinese restaurant"
There was a moment of silence in the room
"What can we do?"
"Well hopefully, I can diagnose some pills but if we don't find a patient with hope she could very well die"
My parents looked at each other before my dad said
"We need to ask you somethings outside Dr. Asshole"
"Ok sure"
He brought my parents out the room and Kevin followed them. Leaving me with Karen…alone. It was silent for what seemed like forever before she finally broke the silence
"He didn't show up Kenny"
"Uhhh who didn't show up?"
I asked stupidly even though I knew
"My guardian angel Kenny…he didn't show up"
"Well Karen um…maybe he was busy y'know he-he is a superhero after all…"
"He said he would always be there for me and he's not. He said he would always protect me and he doesn't…Am I just not important to him anymore?"
She asked as I saw nothing but pain and sadness within her teary eyes
"Karen you have to understand he…he has to protect other people to y'know?"
"I thought everyone gets their own guardian angel"
"No Karen he's everyone's guardian angel but you are the most important thing in the world to him okay"
She appeared to be less upset after I told her that
"But then why didn't he show up for me?"
"Like I said he has to protect others as well and he might not know your even here"
"But doesn't he always watch over me?"
I didn't know how to answer
"I guess he meant in spirit…"
"I guess…but at least you are here for me Kenny I don't know what I would do without you sometimes"
"I don't know what I'd do without you Karen…"
My family came back into the room with the doctor
"Okay Karen so here's what we are gonna…what the?"
He cut himself off as he saw the heart rate monitor besides her bed start slowly beeping
"My god…"
"What doctor"
"The hope rate monitor…it's going up"
Oh so it's a hope rate monitor
"What does that mean?"
"It means her hope is coming back but it is still very little hope…but that little amount of hope can make a difference"
He paused
"Her hope levels gone up when we left her with your son, so that must mean…
He looked at me
"You must be her only hope…"
