Chapter 36 - In the Hospital (1/2)

Chris felt like he was going to faint at any moment.

'This is not good,' Chris thought.

Blood was continuing to gush out of his body and while he did want to fix it, unfortunately, he didn't know any healing spells.

The Servant came up to Chris. He took off his hood to reveal his face. Chris was now wide awake and completely shocked. The Servant's face was full of huge scars from cut wounds. One of his eye was sewn shut and one of his ear was gone as well. However, he was grinning ear to ear.

”You know as a Servant, I'm not allowed to show my face or talk, but since I'm going to die anyways, I might as well right?” The Servant said with a grin.

The Servant started laughing maniacally.

”You're crazy,” Chris said while gasping for air.

”Crazy? Perhaps I am, but compared to those maniacs over there, I'm nothing,” The Servant said pointing at the cult members fighting his parents and Martin. Chris saw that Bradley and Lorraine were desperately trying to defeat their cult group. ”After a Cult member kidnapped me, I was forced to be trained and look at my face. This is what they did as punishment for not meeting their standards. There was no escape. I couldn't leave nor could I die. I was stopped every time I tried to commit suicide and they would punish me heavily after finding me. Can you stand that? Can you stay sane after being tortured everyday having your ears chopped off or having your eyes gouged out then sewn shut? Well you're just a child, what can you really understand other than the fact that I look disgusting. I see that your two lady friends are shivering over there,”

”I know! After I kill you, I'll kill those two. Surely that'd make my short life mean something!” The Servant said as he lifted his wand.

'I can't concentrate to create a shield. Well it's quite surprising that my body actually lasted this long,' Chris thought as he lost his consciousness. The last thing he heard was Hermione and Kristine call his name as he fell.

...

When Chris woke up, he was in a hospital room. When he looked next to him, Bradley and Lorraine were next to him sleeping.

”Father. Mother,” Chris said weakly.

Both Bradley and Lorraine immediately woke up and Lorraine started to cry.

”Chris, I'm so sorry. I swear I'll never leave you again. I was wrong. I shouldn't have left you. If you had died, I-I wouldn't know what to do with myself,” Lorraine said whilst she was crying.

”Mother, it's not your fault. It was either you fight or Father and Uncle Allen perish from the combined attack of all those Servants. If you hadn't gone to fight, we would've all died,” Chris said. ”Oh yes, what happened to Hermione, Kristine and their parents?”
