I was surrounded by darkness unable to tell what was in front of me. I tried opening my eyes, but something seemed to be holding me back. I could not move because my whole body was in pain. Letting out a grunt, I tried to recollect what had happened and there came flashes of the accident Alaric and I were involved in. As if struck by lightning, I tried to open my eyes harder and move myself from wherever I was. But then, I heard that familiar voice.
"Why hasn't she woken up yet?" It was Alaric, and from what I could hear, he was scolding someone. Huh! Even on death bed he never stops with his bossy mood. "You said she'll be fine by morning and..."
"Always...angry." I murmured in a pretty low hoarse voice, feeling my throat burning.
