Capítulo 9: Unveiling the past and the run
Dr. Daniel Smith saw many things while being a doctor in Royal Woods, most of them coming from the infamous Loud family. However except those times it was only normal cases in a quiet suburban town like Royal Woods nothing exciting happens. Daniel has to admit he loves the leisure life in the suburb. However, in just one night everything crashed down.
He realized the real life of a doctor and how many people don't deserve the title of a human being.
Dr. Smith examined the poor boy in front of him. Scars, burn marks, bruises, cuts, all of them covering something even more gruesome.
Perfectly straight thin scars with a couple of almost invisible dots right next to the lines.
He knew perfectly what they are
Scalpel marks
He knows how they looked he saw them almost every day.
Th-they dissected an innocent boy and after they torture him for god knows how much. Only this thought makes him want to throw up. Fortunately, he stopped himself. He couldn't break down so early, not yet.
The boy had many other problems. Internal bleeding. Infected cuts, scratches, and broken bones, also the boy looked like he is under influence of a strong drug.
When they finally finished put some stitches on the worst wounds and they already started to bandage him.
He woke up but his eyes were unfocused, his face was blank and he stayed completely still like he wasn't in the middle of a hospital room surrounded by strangers. Usually, people freak out trying to run away, move, scream, something! But he looked like he didn't even care if they actually wanted to hurt him!
After a couple of seconds, a nurse called to him. It was just a simple question that we told every patient when they woke up, nothing special.
"Are you ok young man? Do you know what is your name?"
But when the boy lay his dead eyes on the female nurse. His breath that was steady and controlled the entire time started to speed up at the alarming speed. His eyes got wide and he open his mouth large.
"Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh"
He screamed like he saw the worst monster in his dreams. He immediately tried to run away to get out as far away from the female nurse that looked too shocked to even move at the reaction of the young boy.
In the end, they needed 4 people to pin him down long enough to grab his left arm to inject him.
Dr. Daniel hesitate for a second after he was that his left arm was filled with many injection marks. He almost froze up but he snap back immediately and immediately inject him with something that will allow the boy to fall asleep immediately.
The medicine took half an hour to calm him down. It was pretty weird because this medicine could knock out grown men almost immediately. However, he didn't put too much thought into it.
They took the sleeping boy and started to clean him up to see clearly in what state his body is and how bad his wounds are.
When the staff washed his hair they could clearly see the boy has white hair.
Naturally white hair
"I think I overdid a bit but don't worry I will apologize later, my sweet"
After a couple of good hours, the doctors finally finished their work. They connected him to some machines to help to monitor his heartbeat, to help him breathe, and generally keep him alive.
His state was very unstable and weak. He lost a lot of blood they almost lost him there right on the operation table but thanks to a miracle he resisted enough to allow them to help him.
Fortunately, the hardest part is done but it doesn't mean it's finished. Now he has to call the family of the poor boy. He has some complex feelings about this situation.
He is very happy that he can make this call knowing how much his family suffered in his absence, however, what he has to say to his parents next, what he discovered, and what he had to say to such nice people after they are probably in the most fragile state. He doesn't want to, he really doesn't want to but he is obligated legally and morally as a doctor to say to their official guardians the state of their patient.
He made the call, he heard how Mrs. Loud dropped the phone and some noise before she heard her voice telling him they would come as soon as they can.
When her mother called her she was in a limo in Chicago on her way for a photo session.
"Hey, Sam get me some of that juice will ya! Hey, Luna wants some!?"
Jeremy that sleazebag said standing next to a girl not older than her. The girl had a t-shirt with their band image Moon Goats, on and she looked too excited to be surrounded by her favorite band to observe that the man probably older than her father put his sweaty hand on her thin waist. The rest of her band mates pretend they don't see anything trying to look away looking uncomfortable.
Luna shoots him a look to shut the fuck up and kicks him in the knee to stop to touch that poor dumb girl.
"Hey, mum! Everything is ok?"
"*sniff* da-darling..."
Luna panicked a bit. Their mother never dared to break in front of them. She holds her feelings no matter the situation, waits till she is in her room, and cries her eyes out. Luna quested it was one of the perks of being raised by a soldier.
But this is new...
"Ho-Honey th-they found Li-Lincoln they finally found Lin-Lincoln!"
Her mind was blank for a second and when the information finally sunk in her brain...
"Let me out."
She wanted to get out of that dammed car immediately
"Huh?"
Spoke Mazzy her bandmate, if her bangs didn't cover her eyes everybody could see her wide eyes looking at Luna open up the limo door and get it out of the black limousine!
Fortunately, the car stopped at the red light and she could get off. Her bandmates were so surprised that they didn't even move.
The night was cold Luna threw her hands on her shoulders trying to keep her warm.
Hope she would find a boat or a ferry or anything that could take her to Michigan as fast as she can.
While she looked around she heard her voice.
"Luna! Stop! Please stop!"
She heard her loud and clear but she didn't stop she was walking towards the port maybe there was at least something willing...
"I said stop!"
Her cold hand touched her wrist stopping her in her tracks.
"Let go."
Her voice was steady and colder than the night. Some outlookers threw some glances at them but they continued their walk.
"Luna why..."
"Let go Sam Right. Now"
She turned her head she didn't scream and her voice was free of any emotion but her eyes... her warm blue eyes that Sam loved were filled with so much hate that she almost lost her grip on the rock star.
"But Luna you can't we have a ..."
"I know what we have, but I don't wanna go back to that jackass and...!"
"I know he is a piece of human scum but he helped our band to grow, he helped us, Luna!"
"No, he's not. If you mean "helping" by manipulating me to create more popularity for the band then you are more than right Sam."
She freezes pretty fast and not because of the cold temperature outside. Luna slides her arm pretty easily from her grip and walks away.
She heard how Sam fell to her knees but she didn't turn away.
She knew everything all along
She knew that Jeremy sent all those bastards to meet her knowing that they will make fun of her family, rail her up, and in the end she would break their teeth so that he can record it and make the popularity of the band skyrocket.
She loved... she still love Sam. With all her heart that why she didn't tell her that she knew.
That's why she didn't tell her that she knew Sam was the one that recorded everything in every "fan meet-up" and the one who kept the other band members away so that she can be alone with them.
Luna loves everything about Sam. Her smile that can light the room, her understanding attitude, her rock passion even her meek attitude.
However, the last one can be a problem too.
She knew everything was that wanker fault, Jeremy.
Also, she knew. She knew Sam's personality couldn't say no to Jeremy's plan.
Sam wasn't strong enough for Luna to say no to Jeremy and Luna weren't strong enough to look past her mistakes or speak up till now.
Past is past now she has to get to her brother as fast as she can.
