I looked back at her. " Do you know where Ronan or Savatar are?"
She shrugged and looked confused. " I'm sorry but we don't know who they are. I really think that you should lay back down sweetheart you've had a bad accident. Nicole can you go get the doctor?" She told the blond haired girl.
Nicole nodded and left through the door. The door closed behind her and clicked into place. I sat and finally took in the room. White smooth walls with a table besides the bed. Colorful cards were on the small table in a different language. Some sort of small metal boxes were beeping away besides me which I assumed was magic. The sheets were so soft and were probably made by the best weavers in the kingdom.
I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood up before walking to the square glass and shoving it open and looking out. But the sight that greeted me was not what I had expected. Instead of trees and birds I was up very very high. I looked down at the roads and the metal boxes that had people trapped in them until I realized with my sharp eyesight that they were actually controlling the metal boxes.
I inhaled in a gasp of air and let my eyes roam around. The city was huge with lights blinking everywhere and huge tall palaces stationed around everywhere. The light glistened off the buildings and reflected onto the streets below where millions of people rushed about on their business.
They carried metal boxes and talked into little tiny metal boxes. Rushing and bumping into each other. I stared and let my nose work as I experienced new smells that assaulted my nose. Heavenly smells and sharp smells that burned with familiar smells of trees and flowers and animals.
But one thing for sure was that I wan not even in the kingdom. However I was still on earth but it was different. Wayyy different.
I looked down at the flimsy dress on my body and glared whirling around. " Why in the freaking motherfucking hell am I in a dress?" I shouted.
The woman cringed. " It's not a dress it a gown since your in the hospital."
I looked towards the door as it opened revealing Nicole and the 'doctor' who was a guy dressed in white robes. I raised an eyebrow. Usually healers are women and wear red robes not white.
" What are you? And for god's sake where are my clothes?" I asked hands on my hips.
The supposed doctor smiled and reached for me. I snarled and jerked my hand away. " Don't touch me."
He stepped back and the smile dropped from his face. " My name is Doctor Jenkins and you have been in a terrible accident so I need you to sit down before we can get you some clothes."
" Terrible accident?" I said and laughed. " You call having someone kill me with a sword a terrible accident?"
His eyebrows drew together. " I'm afraid your a little woozy Miss Coolgate. Please take a seat so that we can talk properly."
I glared. " I am not woozy at all thank you very much. I am perfectly fine talking from where I'm standing."
" But you might get dizzy and fall down. Are you not weak in the legs or anything? You where in a coma for a year." He said and raised the sheet of paper and looked on it as he talked.
" I'm absolutely fine. I can leap from this building and be perfectly fine." I said and crossed my arms as I leaned against the glass. For some reason everyone immediately began shouting and waving their hands around as they pleaded for me not to do that.
" No! No! Please Miss Coolgate do not do that."Jenkins said frantically waving his hands around.
I shrugged what was the deal with them? " Alright but first tell me what year it is."
He finally calmed down. " It is 2018."
I did not show disbelief on my face as I turned and faced the glass. 2018? That means I have been dead for over 3000 years. This was not good.
" Do you remember me honey?" The woman said with a tone of hope in her voice.
" I'm afraid I don't miss." I said without turning around.
" What about me?" Nicole asked.
I turned around and faced them. " I'm sorry I don't know you."
They all looked at me sadly before the woman turned and started discussing thing with Jenkins about releasing me. They talked in whispers for some reason as apparently they did not know that I could hear them. They discussed about how I was in a 'coma' and couldn't remember anything. And how long before my boyfriend should come and visit me. And how he was going to be shocked at how I looked that resulted from my "coma".
Finally they stopped and looked at me. The woman opened the door and waited for me to pass through. " My name is Sarah Coolgate. I am your mom. Please come with me."
I reluctantly rolled my eyes and passed through following them down the eight flight of stairs until we came to the bottom floor and passing through the front doors that you pushed outwards. Then they came to a white metal box and opened the door for me to get in.
I eyed the door before passing through it and into the tight exterior. I settled on the the soft seat and watched as Nicole got in besides me and smiled at me. Sarah got into the front and activated the magic and drove it into the traffic. Nicole stuck her hand out towards me.
" Hi I'm Nicole and I'm your sister." She said as I shook her hand.
" Um hi I'm Char." I said trying to make the best of it.
She giggled. " Uh yeah I know I'm your sister."
I eyed her. " Oh of course."
I regretted my decision of talking to her as there was not one moment of silence in the car as Nicole chatted away the whole trip from the hospital to 'home'. She told me about how I had been driving my 'car' when someone crashed into me and made a 'hit and run'. Apparently I hit my head and was in a deep sleep for 12 moon cycles. My 'boyfriend' was my supposed suitor? And she said we loved each other very much. She said he had blonde hair and green eyes and his name was Cole.
Also she said that I used to have blond hair and blue eyes like her until my coma. Then my hair and eyes changed from the stress.
I just sighed and let her rant on until we arrived while I managed to figure out how to open the door of the car. I stepped out and gazed up at the two story white house. I followed Sarah up the steps and into the house as she smiled at me a secret smile that told me that a surprise was waiting.
I stepped into the living room and stared at the brown haired blue eyed man with a big smile.
" Hey honey." He said and reached forward hugging me. I let him hug me before managing to escape out of his embrace.
" You look good Char. Almost looks like you weren't in a coma for a year" He said as he stepped back taking me in.
I looked at a reflection of the patio glass and noticed Sarah drawing a hand across her throat which meant silence it.
" Um honey Char doesn't actually remember anything." Sarah said as I turned around and walked around the room.
" Oh." He said in surprise.
" Um my name is Jacob and I'm your dad." He said as I stopped and shook hands with me. I smiled.
" Is there anywhere that I can go and buy some clothes?" I asked them.
" Oh you already have clothes in your room!" Nicole said excitedly.
" I assume that most of them are dresses and tight jeans with low cut tops?" I said as she twisted her hands awkwardly.
" Uh yeah but that's the stuff you like." She said.
I snorted. " I do not like that stuff."
Sarah jumped in before Nicole's feeling got hurt. " Well I'm sure that you can take Char into town and get her clothes right Nicole?"
" Yeah sure. I'll take you anywhere you want to go."
" Ok." I said and whirled around walking towards the door. " Let's go."
We went into the city and Nicole showed me the clothing stores. I went in and picked out all the clothes that suited me. Often she would try and come up with suggestions about this dress or that dress and I would turn her down. I picked out a couple black and brown t-shirts. I bought a black jacket that I fit into comfortably.
I also picked out a black overcoat and black jeans that had silver zippers just above the knees. I picked out some black underwear, socks, and 'bras'. I picked out some black lace up hiking boots and a black leather belt.I also got some black leather gloves with the fingers cut off and some black leather armbands. I waited for Nicole to turn up her nose at them before buying them and then I took them from her and put them on. I walked out of the dressing room and heard Nicole whistle.
" Wow girl. You really know how to put together an outfit." She said.
I had on the jacket and a black shirt and the black jeans with the boots and belt with my gloves and the armbands. I shrugged and followed her out. I followed her to a car and stopped as I looked at the store window and stared. Was that a wraith flying through the people? Sure enough I walked closer to the glass and saw the wraith flying in and out of people affecting their moods.
She cackled as she saw me and headed through the store towards me. Until she realized I could see her. She came to a stop as I met her eyes and glared.
" Don't even try it wraith."
The wraith eyes widened and she backed off hastily before screeching and flying off to the back of the store. Which reminded me that I needed other stuff that I would only find in a supernatural store. After all I didn't see any people walking around with swords and knife's. It looked like if you did that they would run away screaming in different directions.
I turned around and walked back to Nicole and stopped at her window. She rolled it down.
" What do you need Char?"
" Um well I have to go and look for something special. I'll meet you back at the house."
" Well I'm not supposed to leave you here by yourself but I understand if you need some time alone. You know where the house is right?"
" Yeah I'll see you."
She grinned and waved before rolling down the window and taking off. I sighed I finally got rid of her. I walked to a store that was pure black and walked in greeting the young fairy at the counter in her language. The fairy nodded and murmured something as she continued reading until her brain suddenly started working.
She looked up in surprise. " You speak my language?"
I nodded. " Yes where is your back room?" I asked since I couldn't spot what I needed.
" My name is Roda and It's back there" she pointed to the wall before continuing " my grandmother is in there she will help you.
I nodded in thanks and crossed through the disguise and into a room full of weapons and armor. A little old lady was bustling around cleaning stuff when she noticed me.
" Hello dear how may I assist you?"
" I'm looking for a very special
