(art and character by S7D on deviantart, story by monocraeta) you come back to your old town for Easter, after being away for almost ten years you hadn't expected the weather to change so quickly up here in the mountains. As you was walking down the street it started pouring down rain, you were soaked within a few seconds. you walked back towards the hotel as you heard a familiar voice behind you, saying your name. you turned around to see Jasmine, the mother of your high school girlfriend. She invited you in to dry off, she walked into the bathroom to get a towel. As I walked into the kitchen you saw a woman sitting at the table, a second later I saw she was in a wheelchair and I suddenly recognized her, it was Jean, your ex-girlfriend. you asked her what happened but you just were replied by Incoherent moaning and drooling. jasmine: "She can't answer you, she doesn't speak and her computer is charging. Jean was in an... accident a few months after you left. She was at the pond by the old bridge, somehow she fell in" she says as she strokes jeans hair and you say you didn't know jasmine: "how could you?" she hand you a chocolate bar from the fridge " she was under water for a long time before Tom and Ray, you know the Collins boys, managed to get her out. But then it was too late, her brain didn't get enough oxygen and she suffered permanent brain damage. she cant speak, walk or eat but is intact cognitively." jasmine turns jeans chair around to face you jasmine: "hey sweetie, jean? look who's here" you look at Jean, her eyes are somehow blank and saliva runs out of her mouth down her cheek into a bandana tied around her neck. I can see a tube running in from the bag on the chair and up her shirt. Feeding tube?
