KAIA GASPED AWAKE, coughing up blood as her surroundings were beyond blurry. Her body was shaking as her head pounded, her hands attempted to grip at the ground beside her, but she felt it turn muddy under grip as her hand was incased with a thick liquid and she shakily pulled it up, her stomach churning as all she could see was red coating her hand.
She felt nauseous as she gagged at the sight, attempting to hold back the bile that was threatening to escape her throat as she didn't have the strength to roll over and knew that if she threw up now, she'd only choke on it and possibly die all over again. Then again, Kaia felt dead still as her body was in a pain like she had never felt before. She could feel blood sweeping through her clothes, leaving her in a pool of her own blood as the dirt ground turned muddy mixing in with the liquid constantly leaking from her head and back side.
She couldn't believe how she was alive right then and there. She was bleeding out of early every part of her body, her head was swirling with pain, her vision was blurring as blood leaked into her eyes forcing her to shut them as she didn't hold the strength to reach up and wipe it out of them. She felt like she was dying all over again.
Her ears rung as she thinks she hears footsteps coming her way and she just barely held the strength to turn her head, hope filling her chest that the others had reached her in time, but her hope was quickly shut down upon catching sight of seemed to be multiple phantoms brushing through the bushes, or maybe it was just one and Kaia was completely out of it as her vision seemed like it was doubling and tripling as her eyes widen in compete horror at the sight and her vision was tinted red from the blood leaking into her eyes.
