Wereshadmaria Chapter 3
Shadow looked at Maria with a frown.
" Bark... " Shadow said.
Maria tried to sit up slowly but, she grunted as the pain struck in her stomach. She then laid back down to relax. Shadow whined in worry. Maria then opened her eyes. She put her hand on his cheek like she did the first time at the pet store. Shadow rubbed his muzzle on her hand and then looked at her. Maria smiled weakly.
" Its ok boy. Just a little pain in the stomach that's all. " she said to calm Shadow down.
Shadow then moved his head to Maria's head and rubbed his face beside hers. Shadow started to purr like a cat. Maria smiled and started to rub his head back. later he scooted back to look at her. Shadow saw that her eyes were closed with a smile. She went back to sleep. Shadow looked at her a little longer and then laid down on top of her and then smiled a little bit bigger than her. He later fell a sleep. Maria woke up and looked at Shadow as he looked so cute. Maria put her hand on his furry back and then started to stroke where his spine would be. She later patted his head softly.
" I love you. " Maria said quietly. Then she fell back asleep.
later
Shadow and Maria finally arrived at the hospital. The driver got out of the drivers seat and stepped onto the drive through and went to the back of the truck. Shadow and Maria was still sleeping peacefully. He opened the door and noticed that Shadow was now on the hospital bed. He ran into the hospital and asked for helpers. Helpers ran out to the truck and picked up the bed. As they lifted up the bed Maria grunted as she was about to wake up. The doctor walked up to the two boys and told them to stop. He put a breathing mask on her. She grunted softly as she was falling back to sleep. The doctor then gave them a thumbs up to say that everything was ok. Then they later continued to bring her into the hospital. Maria was deep asleep. She had no idea what was going on. When they arrived in the hospital they put her into the room. Shadow woke up after a nice nap. He looked at the men that were holding him on the bed. He jumped off quickly and started to growl as he thought they were criminals. The men ran into the room very fast. As they put Maria on the bed. Shadow was sitting there. He had a very angry expression on his face like he did at the gas station. The men turned around quickly but, jumped as they saw Shadow. The men passed by slowly. Shadow was still mad looking at both of them as they left. When the men was behind Shadow they started to run really fast down the hall. When they left, Shadow looked at Maria with a sad look. He started to wine. Shadow walked up to Maria like a dog. ( like he had always been walking ) Shadow put one of his paws on Maria's hand. Maria looked nice and peaceful. But, Shadow saw something around her mouth. It was the breathing mask. Shadow did not know what it did. The doctor arrived in the room. He had a big gray beard, little glasses in the shape of circles,brown eyes, and hair that was only shown as a combover. Shadow knew he was the doctor. Shadow started to wine and pout as he threw her hand up in the air with his head. The doctor looked at Shadow.
" Don't worry boy, I will get her as good as new. " The doctor said.
The doctor put his hand on Maria's head. It was cold but, smooth like ice.
" She is deep asleep. We will have to get the heart monitor on and keep checking her heartbeat. " The doctor said.
The doctor was turning on the heart monitor. Shadow didn't notice he just looked back at Maria. She was silent. Not a sound came out do her mouth. Just complete silence. Shadow then later herd beeps. Shadow looked at where the sound was. The doctor came out of the back of the machine. He looked and started to talk.
" Sorry, did I scare you boy? Well this sound is the beat of her heart. When you see the line go up that means it pumped out. When the line goes down that means that it getting ready to pump out. Get it? " the doctor said.
Shadow nodded as he understood. It was beeping slowly. Did that mean that her heart was beating too slow? Shadow was worried. He started to cry. The tear ran down his face and then landed on Maria's hand. The tear turned into a bubble. It floated in front of Shadow's eyes. " Expect a big surprise " That's what the bubbles message was. Shadow put his nose towards the bubble then it popped. Shadow tilted his head as a dog would be confused. Oh well. But, he was still interested on what the surprise is. Was she going to live? Oh! He might get the biggest piece of steak in the world! Yummy steak. Shadow was drooling just thinking of that big, juicy steak. Shadow shook his head. That's not what was important now. He had to make sure that she stays alive. When Shadow was in his own world the doctor must of left. So it was just Shadow and Maria alone. Shadow found a chair close by. It looked soft. Shadow decided to sleep on it tonight or did he want to lay down with Maria? Now he had to decide. He hated to decide hard things. Should he use Iny Meany miny mo? Sure, why not. He pointed his paw left to right. To Maria then to the chair over and over until " It " and he pointed at the chair. So, he went to Maria and laid on top of her. Maria was probably more wormer than the chair anyways.
