Chapter 7 Hospital Emergency
"Dump it inta da junkyard!" a man yelled, his voice, low and husky yet
louder than everyone. Truckloads of alloy were thrown down, into the pit
of soil, landing harshly. Just then, something dark caught his attention.
Walking towards it, he lifted several metal sheets off the object, revealing
a limp body. "Huh? A person?" he exclaimed, his mates rushing towards him to
see what the problem was. Cautiously, he pulled the body out of the mess
before pulling off the helmet. "A woman?!" Crowding around the body, the
workers investigated the slightly crisped spacesuit and the scarred helmet.
There were a few deep scratches in the suit and blood, smeared onto it.
"She's still only a teen," a worked uttered, peering at her face. "Bring
'er inta da shack. See if she's still alive!" the older man advised, lifting
the battled-scarred body.
It took a while before she gained
consciousness, Lucretzia opened her eyes, watching the fan spin around in a
slow pace.
~Huh? Where am I?~
Attempting to sit up, she briskly
heard a woman's voice, calm and soft, "You're awake." Lucretzia turned
to look at her. She had dark blonde hair and light hazel eyes, she was
fairly tall and wore a nurse's uniform. "Am I in a hospital?" "Yes, you
were brought here by some people. They found you at the dumps." "Dumps?"
"Yes. Well you've probably just had a slight shock. Well what's your name?"
"Name? I don't really remember that. They used to call me Lucretzia though,
I think…" Her voice was full of uncertainty as to whether that was actually
her name. It felt like a dream at first but she soon learnt that it was
reality. "What's you last name?" "I don't know. I only know I came from
earth and the time when I was only seven. Nothing after that." "You must
have suffered a brain damage. You'll be needing a few brain scans, just to
make sure. I'm sure it's just a temporary memory loss." "Thank you
nurse," Lucretzia smiled and snuggled back under her blankets. "Please, call
me Emma." "Thanks Emma."
"Lucretzia, you only have a memory loss and
can only remember the time when you were a child, right?" Emma enquired,
making sure her patient understood her own situation. "Yes," Lucretzia
replied, wearing a few clothes the nurse had found for her. "Are you sure I
can keep these clothes? I feel a little guilty in taking them." "Yes
Lucretzia, they're just my old clothes, I can't wear them anymore. Go ahead and
take them." "Thank you." "You have a few minor injuries and will be
able to leave the hospital by this afternoon."
Bursting into the
room, a young man shouted, "Run, there's a fire in the hospital!" "Fire?
C'mon Lucretzia, we better run for safety," the woman grabbed the patient's
hand and pulled her off the bed, dashing down the twenty storey building.
Lucretzia glanced behind her, noticing the flames speeding up after them,
the smoke slightly choking their breathing. "Lucretzia, you go down first. I
have to help the patients," Emma ordered, pulling her forward and down the
steps. "Ok but be careful Emma," she nodded, racing down the stairs. As she
approached the fourth floor, a wailing sound caught her attention. Kicking
open the door, she saw the level, full of smoke and flames. Swiftly jumping
from under the door, the splitting wood frame fell down, crashing onto the
floor. Scanning around her, she saw a three year old toddler, crying his
head off, tears swelling from his eyes. "Don't move!" Flames had already
engulfed half of the area, leaving a slight gap between her and the
child.
