TW: SUICIDE MENTIONS NAD FORCED COMA
Chapter 3
I was resting in my bed, I heard a knock, I put down my book and walked to the door, opening it.
“Hello?..SIMON- YOU’RE - STANDING! OH MY GOSH! THIS IS- AMAZING!” Simon was at the door, rubbing his arm, smiling. “Yeah…it's still kinda…hard” he said gently. “ I would..imagine, here I have a seat in my room.” Simon looked at me like I was crazy. “. .. are you sure?...” I looked at him. “Yeah! It's fine.” I signaled him in, he followed in. “Please close the door behind you,I prefer my door closed.” Simon closed the door, nodding. “So..I assume the doctors have checked everything..memory okay?” I said, Simon nodded, looking out the window. “...it’s…pretty outside.” Simon said. I nodded, smiling. “I’m glad you’re better.” I said, Simon looked at me, he looked ... .happy, i stared at him, clearing my throat. “I uhm, me and Stratt have a meeting in an hour, would you like to come to watch?..” I said,simon looked at me. “Are you sure you’re allowed to do that??-” he said, I looked at him. “Iii-.....dont knooowww… I would have to ask stratt.” I said awkwardly, rubbing my head. “. .. you’re a scientist right?....what science stuff are you doing on this ship?..” he said. “ OH! I haven’t told you, so basically we are working on breeding astrophage, which we need for fuel for a ship cause the suun…..is dyyinng… shoot you needed clearance for that- uhm..” i stared at him, he looked, mortified.
“....my stars-...were burning out, i was on a submarine-....i- sorry.” he said, fidgeting.
“ THAT EXPLAINS WHY YOU DROWNED! Your submarine must’ve exploded, and drifted you in the water, you must have been unconscious for a long time, wow!”
AFTER THE MEETING
“...doesn’t stratt feel bad for making people commit suicide?..” he said
I looked at him. “Stratt doesn’t feel a thing i think, its.. Amazing..yet scary.” I said sadly.
We walked down the hall to our rooms, I sat in mine, thinking about life.
(psa theres gonna be alot of time skips, my bad)
Me and stratt were outside, talking, boom explosion, we looked, simon ran with us to it, yeek i gotta do cardio…
We walked in a hall , talking to yao. “HALF OF MY SCIENCE TEAM, DEAD?!” yao exclaimed.
“It doesn't matter, we need leave in 3 hours.” We walked to a meeting room, I sat in a chair next to simon.
“We need a scientist.” stratt said, looking at me.
“How would we get someone in 3 HOURS?! We would need them trained and know what to look for i mean-....i-...” I looked at stratt, my eyes widened.
“...you want ME? To go on this mission? To basically COMMIT? “ i exclaimed
Simon looked pissed at stratt. “ I'M NOT LETTING GRACE- GO, EITHER I GO WITH HIM- OR SOMETHING!” he yelled.
Stratt pursed her lips, sighing. “ Dr Grace, you have 3 hours to think about it.”
I looked at her, nodding, looking at Simon, I was teary. Simon hugged me, comforting me.
“I-i dont- want to go-” I said shakeyily. “Shh shh its okay-” he was rubbing my back, it felt nice.
I walked to stratt’s office.
Opening the door, walking in, sitting on the chair, staring at her.
I pursed my lips. “ i-i’m sorry, you’re just- not talking me into it.” Tears were rolling down my cheeks. Stratt looked at me.
“. . . you didn’t have a choice..” he said shakily. “ please- this isn't me betraying you, this is me believing in you, you’ll be remembered as a hero.” she said shaky. I looked at her, shaking my head.
“ c-come on- man-” I said , starting to sob.
“Come in.” stratt said, people in suits and a suitcase came in, I got up, backing up.
“ PLEASE- STRATT- “ i yelled, she looked at me, with a straight face.
“ GUYS WE CAN JUST- TALK ABOUT THIS- “ i ran, running through halls, the people were chasing me, i ran past simon, simon tensed up. “ GRACE?! SHIT- FUCK GET THE FUCK-”
Simon ran after me, being faster than the people, catching up. I looked at him, I was sobbing, I fell , at the fence. “ SI- SI SI SIMON- PLEASE- HELP- “ the men tackled me, and pulled simon away, simon was screaming at them, tugging away. “ GRACE- GRACE NONONON FUCK, GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME! GRACE GRACE- GAH- “ they pinned Simon to the ground, simon was pushing them off somehow. I was screaming. “ STOP IT - YOUR MURDERING ME- “
I screamed, they injected the coma liquid into my neck, and into simons, last thing i saw was the rainbow.
