One Month Later

Every day Logan would come in and check on me. It has been a month since I stumbled into the teacher and I have not woken up yet. Logan is very worried I won't wake up this time. He talks to Patricia and they both agree not to tell the girls about me yet. Some days he would stay for a while and talk to me. He would talk about the girls and the school and anything else He could think of just so I would hear his voice. At the end of every visit he would tell me he loved me and then kiss me. After that he would leave.

He still taught during the week and him and the others would rescue other gifted people and bring them back to the school on the weekend.

The next weekend Logan, Janet and a few others left to rescue some people in Alabama. Everything went well until the end of the mission. Then the team was ambushed. Several people were hurt. After Logan got everyone back to the school both Logan and Janet got the hurt people to the clinic. Patricia got everything under control. It wasn't till everything had calmed down and Patricia and Logan heard it.

As I bring the last girl into the clinic I feel a strange pulling sensation in my chest. I feel like my heart is being pulled out. I try to ignore it as I help Patricia with the girl. As Adrianna walks in I am happy. I have never liked blood and after everything we have gone through I still don't. Once they have things under control I step out of the room. As I walk toward the main door the pulling sensation gets stronger. After a minute I decided to see what was causing it so I turn the other way. As I walk toward a closed room the feeling gets stronger. I quietly open the door to see what's going on and gasp when I see what's in the room. After a minute of shock I scream, "You can't be real!"

Then from behind me I hear running. Patricia, Logan, and Adrianna all stop behind me. I know they are talking to me but I can't hear it. It's like they are talking to me while I'm under water. Then someone puts their hand on my shoulder and I snap out of it. I turn on them and start asking questions.

"How long has she been here? Is she alive? Does Amanda know? What happened to her? Why didn't you tell us?"

"We didn't say anything because we didn't want to get your hopes up. She has been in a coma for over a month. Come on let's go to the office and we will explain everything we can."

Once I shake my head yes all four of us walk to the clinic office. Once inside Patricia and Adrianna tell me everything they can.

"Okay so as the doctor here let me tell you what we have been dealing with. She stumbled onto the property a little over a month ago. She was running from the people who took her from the orphanage. She stumbled into the teachers house and passed out. After we got to the clinic the others sent the people following her in a different direction. After doing a full work up I found that she was not only exhausted but she was malnourished and dehydrated as well. It was so bad that her internal organs were shutting down. I knew she had a small chance of survival. We managed to keep her alive and she has managed to regain some of the weight she lost. She is almost perfectly healthy now. The only problem is she has yet to wake up."

"But how did she know to come here in the first place?"

"Okay so back when you though she drowned you were partially right. The plane the were on went down in water. At the last minute she managed to escape. She was found by some people who took her to the local hospital. This happened in France so my sister runs the hospital. The people told her what they knew and they left. First of all I think you should know if she does wake up she will not know who you are, She has total amnesia. My sister called me after the people from the plane found her. For about two months she was on the run from them trying to get here. She was not given any time to sleep or anything else and that's why she is like this now. We didn't want to tell you because we can't tell you what you want to hear. We don't know when or if she will wake up or when or if she will get her memory back. We were really hoping to wait till she woke up. I'm not sure what else we can tell you right now but if you have anymore questions just ask."

"Um Logan what is your part in all of this?"

" All I will say is I was the one to pull her out of the water when the plane went down but I wasn't there when she went to the hospital. To be honest I thought she was dead."

"Wow well I know how you feel there. So what do we do now?"

"First of all I think it's really for the best that we not tell Amanda yet. I would prefer to give one of you good news at least."

"Oh I agree after everything we have gone through I don't think Amanda would be able to handle it."

"Okay then let's keep this between us and when anything changes I will let you know."

"Okay, can I come see her sometimes? Not during the day when Amanda is here but in the evening?"

"Yes that will be fine. Just remember to blurry everything you know about all this really deep so she doesn't find out."

"Oh I know I will. But now I have to go upstairs and help the others settle in. I made a new friend named Tilly who doesn't like to have men around. I will let Logan explain."

Once Patricia nods her head I head upstairs.
