Okay. I've got time, so I'll do as much of 33 as possible.
Chapter 33:Diverging Paths
Tremorock City Local Hospital

"It's been 2 days. When will they wake?" Caitlee leaned on a wall, deep in thought.
Brelyn looked sideways at her, adjusting Caitlee's hair. "I don't know. But just to be sure, you might
want to cover up your tats..." She released the band holding her ponytail as hair sprung outwards.
She then did the same with hers.
"Right...! Look!" Caitlee pointed to the sick beds in front of them, where Shandon and Derrick lay.
Shandon's eyes and arms twitched, then opened wide. Caitlee was looking over him, smiling
brightly.
"Whoa!! Back off!" Shandon flailed suddenly, whacking Caitlee hard against the cheek. She
stumbled backwards, into Brelyn's arms, and cursed.
"What was that for?!" Caitlee yelled at an alarming level. Her mouth was somewhat salivating with
anger.
"I should be asking you the same. Where am I?" Shandon looked around, spotting Derrick to his
left. He looked motionless, but sprang to life after Brelyn pinched his wrist.
"What the heck?!" Derrick grasped his arm. "Why do you have to do that?" Shandon looked at the
scene with a blank stare.
"You guys are in a hospital. Tremorock City, to be exact." Brelyn wiped her hands together. Her
gray tee, which ended at the waist, wrinkled up as she went on.
"What?! Then, where's Caleb?" Shandon complained, then swooped his gaze around; no sign of him.
Caitlee looked at him as if to ask a question. "You mean your friend over there?" She turned to the
other side of the room. Narcissus lay unconscious in a sickbed, having the same comatose look
on his face.
Derrick looked at her, one bottom eyelid up. "Holy heaven, it's Narcissus!" He frowned, then shook
his arms out in confusion. "The other one..."
Brelyn thought for a moment. "Ahh... He's in the ICU. I suppose he was the first on the thing you
guys were on when you hit the lake. He must've been hit hard when someone landed on him. But,
he is in a coma, too."
Narcissus then sat up in bed, almost certain that he'd still been out cold. "Whoa..." He stared at
Shandon and Derrick, then the girls. "If this is a hospital, I want early admission. It feels like an
asylum in here."
"You think?..." Shandon frowned and looked at the others. "I was so close to getting my revenge..."
