Destiny

[jammi]

I walked through canteens, halls, churches, some of the classrooms and finally up to the residential areas. Hans finally ground to a halt here, ceasing his mindless chatter. The events of the previous day were starting to catch up with me, with pains starting to gnaw at my back. With disdain I noticed my hands were involuntarily shaking too. Hans turned to me.

Well, youll be in this room for the duration, he said gesturing at a door with my name written on it. Your luggage should already be up here. If you want to talk about moving out to the city or another room, you need to talk to one of the faculty.

With that he sauntered out, peering around with his seemingly trademark paranoia. Rubbing my back I pushed open the door and wandered in. My legs were cramping up now too. I began to wonder what that doctor had given me. Granted bones, bruises and lacerations had been cured, as well as immediate pain relief, but I was imagining the pain relief would be short lived. I was guessing the drug was based on a variation of nano-technology.

Inside the room, there was a large, comfortable looking bed covered in heavy sheets. I assumed Id need them due to the terrible weather. I rolled onto the bed with a barely audible groan. There was a set of night sheets resting on the pillows so I changed and slid under the sheets, allowing my mind to unwind and relax.
Calming waves rolled over me. Pained and jet-lagged, I was asleep within three minuets.
