"Lulu, you need to hold him still," I heard Elaine cry. "I can heal him, Lulu, but I need you to stop crying and hold him down. It will hurt to look at, but he'll be okay."
I couldn't tell what was going on. I could hear Elaine, but I couldn't see her. I tried to open my eyes as they felt closed, but I could barely feel my body and couldn't seem to move even the slightest part of it.
"Please, wake up, Ash! Please open your eyes!" I could hear Lulu yelling.
I felt a tear fall on my forehead, and the sound of it sizzling scared me.
Did I get so severely burnt from that explosion that my skin was hot enough to boil water? Was that even possible? And was that why I couldn't feel anything?
Was I dying...again? Could I come back like before? Or was that just a one-time thing? Did some god take pity on me for being brought into this world by...Terra!
