"I know," he said quietly, just before a loud knock sounded on the door. "I-I have to go. I'm sorry Val."
Val pursed her lips before pulling the laptop onto her lap and continuing to type. * * * "More. Tape."
He opened the door to a man he didn't recognize. Opening his mouth, he never got to speak, instead feeling a sharp pain to his side, then his temple before everything went black very quickly. *** She pulled more tape slowly. "Please... I'm begging you.."
She frowned, pulled from her state for a moment. She answered the phone. "This is Val." * * * "Armaggedon."
"V-Val.." Landon's voice was quiet, and he whimpered. "I.. I'm going to hospital right now. I don't know who to call." *** "Please spare me."
"I don't know," he said breathily. "I don't know.. I just.. I'm bleeding." *** "I'll put it in your hair."
She stood up, running her hand through her hair as she panicked. "Okay. Uh... Okay. Okay. Um. I'll come see you. What hospital are you at?" * * * He gasped. "You wouldn't."
