Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Destiny's Whim

I found consciousness in the hour of midnight.

My body aching with the slightest of movements.

My shoulder and waist were bandaged to make me curse in my mind and fall back into the comfort of the bed.

I grumbled in frustration at my present condition.

I just hate it when I am helpless, especially when the person who helps me is someone who has the power to put a weird spell on my body.

"No broken ribs, few bruises on your waist and thighs... and a dislocated shoulder."

I heard a doctor say as she approached me with a smile on her face.

I nodded, the information not bothering me much.

Being in combat you have to forget what pain feels like.

The doctor was a young lady in her 20s, her brown eyes had kindness which is not very common these days.

"Miss Evalinge I know you will not like to talk about it but please we need to know who did this?"

Her eyes were pleading me for answers, as she placed a hand on my arm.

I moved my head to another side, sighing.
