Summary: He wakes up, only to have to think about what he was told.
Note: PBs for all characters are here.
He didn’t remember getting back to headquarters at all. Only what had happened and then he was waking up in their medical area with an IV drip in his arm and Sarah curled up in a chair, looking half asleep. Dagger shifted, hissing a little when he moved his shoulder. Jeeze, that chatterbox of a vampire had done a number on him.
Sarah must not have been fully asleep, because she opened an eye and looked at him, a mix of worry and irritation immediately appearing on her face. “Adam?” she got to her feet, moving to stand at his side. “You’re awake. How’re you feeling?”
“Like I got hit by a damn train right now.” He let his head rest back against the pillow again, not really comfortable being in the medical are with his sister after hearing everything that vampire said. There was a lot of doubt swirling in his head, mainly wonder for if he was right about it. The leader’s eyes glanced at Sarah. He always did think it was weird how they didn’t look very much alike, but some siblings were like that. Then again, he didn’t look a whole lot like what he remembered of their parents either. With a sigh, he shook his head. “Cylde okay? I don’t remember anything past the car.”
“Yeah. She’s alright. Everyone was worried about you though.” Sarah frowned at him. It was more than obvious why they would all be worried. Cal had died during a hunt and even though the others had been new at the time and the Fords had been there long enough to know almost everything about the guy - it was on their minds for if it would happen again.
Dagger nodded. “Good. No, I’m fine now. Think I’ll just sleep or something.” He gave her a weak smile, still tired and beat from it all.
She smiled warmly, leaning to kiss his forehead before hurrying off out of the infirmary. Dagger watched her go, blond hair moving freely behind her. It hurt that he might not really be her brother. That would only mean he didn’t have anyone left, nor did she. It that pained him more than what the vampire did to him. His eyes drifted to the ceiling, full of anger and contempt for…everything. His world was upside down now and he didn’t know how to fix it. No hunt, or patrols, or vampire killing could fix it.
And he was trapped. There was a rock to his left and another to his right. All he could do was…try to muster on. Keep going, stay strong, and keep leading the others in the group on. That was about all he could think to do. As a matter of fact, it was all he thought about until his brain finally shut down on thinking and he fell asleep.
