Chapter 3 - Settling in III

  As he was rolling down the tall hill, he hit some very blunt rocks, unfortunately..

  "NGH! FUCK!"

  "Ouchh... I think I.. broke... a RIB?!"

  A rib could be visibly seen.. poking out of his chest, pressing ever so awkwardly against the skin of his chest.

  "Okay! No need to panic. The town is just close by."

  As he tried to get up, he clutched himself by his chest, but only an intense, sharp, pain could be felt.

  "Shit- why is it so hard to breath.?"

  "Never mind this.. I just need to reach the entrance.."

  With every step he took. It hurt.

  "F-fuck, how could one small rib hurt this bad?"

  He says, trying to grasp for air.

  "S-shit- almost there."

  He nears the gates, he tries to get one of the guards' attention.

  "HEY! YOU THERE!"

  "I-I NEED HELP!.. MEDICAL ATTENTION!.."

  "..RIGHT NOW!"

  Two of the guards notice him, but.. they don't seem to care at all.

  "W-what? are they deaf?"

  He pushes himself to reach the gate, his feet.. very sore.. from all the walking.. but alas. He made it.

  Shouting can be heard coming from within the gates

  "H-hey do you guys have a hospital in there? I really need help with this broken rib.."

  "It just hurts very fucking much right now."

  One of the guards.. tall and sleek, suited in a full clean set of steel armor, steps forward.

  If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

  Tall guard: Hey there! what's this.. "Hosefital"? you speak of? I've never heard of such terms.. besides that you look in pain right now.. Shall i es-

  Another one of the guards step forward.. clothed with leather armor.. fists clenched.. slightly shorter than the tall guard

  Leather guard: Before we escort you to the closest infirmary, I'm gonna be asking you for you identification.. before you can step in.

  "I don't have an identification.. Damn it!

  Leather guard: Well it'll appear you wont be able to get in!

  He says with a sharp grin on his face..

  Tall guard: H-hey i think we should let him.. he looks in a lot of pain right now.

  Leather guard: Are out of your mind?! What's if it's some vampire.. or.. err.. monster in disguise?!

  Tall guard: Don't be ridiculous! He might've dropped his identification somewhere! Can't we make an exception?

  Leather guard: If we make an exception for him.. We'll then have to make an exception for everyone! What would the captain think? If we just let some random thing through the gates?!

  Tall guard: W-well.. You have a point there.. Who knows what could happen.. But i really think we should tend to his injury.

  Leather guard: No.

  The tall guard turns back to our person.. with a concerned look on his face.

  Tall guard: Well I'm afraid we won't be able t-

  "Gawd fucking damn it, what about a bribe?!"

  "Do you guys take bribes?!"

  Tall guard: I-I don't think-

  Leather guard: Heh! Now we're talkin'.. How much do you got?

  "2! 2 Silver coins!"

  He checks his pockets.. and only brings out 1 silver coin.

  "Really?! I must've-

  Leather guard: Dropped it? First, You're poor. Now you're trying to lie?!

  The tall guard turns to the leathered guard.

  Tall guard: Okay! That's enough from you. I believe you've troubled this man far enough already!

  "What a hassle."

  "Cant even get through a basic gate"

  While the guards get into a heated argument, a different disagreement seems to be going on behind them..

  "..Huh? What is going on over there?"
