HELI = HELL
\' SHRUB BERRY '/

All I heard was a banging of a door before I awoke, everything was in pain. Well, mainly my head hurt. Suppose I was hit a couple times on my head. I steadily observed my surroundings to my right, a red button hanging from a string, labelled 'PRESS FOR HELI'. I presumed 'HELI' was supposed to be 'HELP' but the circle part of the 'P' was rubbed away. I pushed myself up onto the pillow, grimacing in pain.

I looked to my left, but my face dropped almost immediately.

Gem was dead on the floor, her face looked unrecognisable by the amount of blood and wounds covering her face, a pool of blood leaked across the marble floor from her wounds. Her ginger hair turning red as it soaked up blood. Her purple short cape was torn and ripped. The white fur stained a deep, bloody red. Her green long sleeved dress was soaking up blood as well. Her emerald green eyes looked lifeless, soulless even.

I looked around frantically, going the press the button. But spying a word on the wall, drawn in blood 'SADLY THERE WAS NO OTHER CHOICE FOR HER' it read. The blood slowly dripping down the wall. I hastily clicked the button over and over. Gem was bleeding out in front of me. Who wouldn't be panicked if THE Great Wizard is dead next to you?!

I pressed the button one to many times, electricity lit up from the button, shocking me lightly, my hand flew back. I shook it, for reasons that I didn't really know.

I tried uselessy to move my body, but it felt as if I was glued to the bed. Unmoving, there is a word for this kind of thing that Scott told me and Gem explained. But the word was to...complex. Parilisis was it...? I can't  remember. Para...para...lsis? Paralysis? I can't  remember still. But remembering words is not important. Anyhow.

Finally someone came rushing in, or more than one. I couldn't tell, I was tearing up so it was fairly blurry. One of them rushed over to me, I clung onto them for dear life as others also approached. The person I was holding onto slowly rubbed circles on my back. I seen a blur of people moving Gem's body away. And the blood was slowly evaporating, to me at least.

I buried my head into the persons neck, they tensed up, but slowly untensed.

I slowly came back to my senses, unhooking myself from the person, I sat back on the bed, wiping my eyes carefully. I observed my surroundings again, the emperors filled the room now. I looked to the person I hugged, and seen the cyanette that had been gone for so long. He fiddled with a cloth while the others discussed in the back.

"Scott...?" I asked, Scott jumped lightly, turning to stare at me.
"Iya Shrub-" He replied.
"Where have you been these past years Scott?" I gently questioned.
"...nowhere" Scott replied, biting his lip.
"Where have you been Scott?" I questioned again.
"Nowhere important." He replied.
"Scotttttttt" I drawled.
"Shrubbbb" Scott drawled back.
"C'mon tell mee!" I said.
"No, I'm not." Scott shook his head.
"Tell me, I'll keep it secret!" I said.
"Nope, not telling." He said, sighing.

I fake pouted, why didn't he trust me with this? He should! But I guess he has only came back after years of hiding, so that's a thing.

"Scott!!!!" Someone yelled, I peered over to see a very angry fWhip, obviously going to blame Scott for this.
"Oh fuck off I didn't even touch her!!!!" Scott somehow calmly yelled back a fWhip.

Everyone paused in surprise and just looked at Scott, the one who never swore, had just swore, that was absolutely revolutionary. Scott tensed up from all the eyes on him and the awkwardly surprised silence.

"How should we believe you?!" fWhip got back to action, immediately.
"You can ask literally anyone who bombarded me after I left the main group that I was with them the entire time." Scott snapped back at him, turning around while rolling his eyes.

I blinked at him, surprised still, he slightly flinched, tensing and moving backwards.

"Why are you looking at me like that." He snapped again, glaring at me, I just blinked.
"Are you going to answer or just blink?" He snapped, obviously getting frustrated with my blinking.
"Okay, whatever. I'm leaving." He rolled his eyes, getting off the bed and walking out the door, Katherine noticed and rushed after him.

fWhip angrily trotting up to me.

"Was he right?" fWhip asked.
"...what???" I questioned.
"You where with him in the little group outside weren't yo-" fWhip was going to continue.
"I was never outside! I've been stuck in this bed all the time, asleep." I cut him off.
"Then who was there with him that looked like you..." fWhip ushered.
"Maybe it was just a hallucination or something." I shrugged.
"Probably, probably." fWhip sighed, walking away.

I laid on the bed peacefully, before drifting asleep into darkness.

Finally, it is done now.
