The Gun was surprisingly light compared to its size. Chris handed it back to Kyra. "Thank you for keeping my stuff safe. Wait there should be a second one."

"Don't worry I have been keeping that one on me while i was getting some of the supplies to keep you alive. Although i must say that you have been healing quite well on your own." Kyra placed the revolver in the bag. " The fact you held that gun at all is a good sign. It took me awhile to get used to the weight of them..." Wait then why was it so....? Is she not aware of the recent changes? Chris thought, attempting to hide his surprise. "... but lets get back to the point. How have you been feeling?"

" Good. It just hurts to move anything but my neck and arms."

" I'm not surprised at all. Your left leg was broken but i've managed to put it back in place and put a splint on it. But what really worried me was the wound in your stomach. I didn't think i could stop the bleeding but i managed to. You better not be moving any more than you have because i'm not exactly the best at stitching." Kyra started to draw the sheets back. " In fact i'd like to look at that. Make sure you didn't open the wound when you sat up."

" No wait. Its fine."

" Let me just look." Kyra lifted Chris shirt to see the bandages. " now lets see. No blood, Thats a good sign. Now for the stitches." She began to lift off the bandages.

" No its fine trust me." Chris said Trying to keep her from seeing.

" Stop moving you might loosen the stitching." she pulled of the bandage completely now. " The hell is this?" she had this look of amazement. " That wound shouldn't have healed for at least another week." The area where the wound was had been perfectly healed. All that was left were the stitches that hadn't been removed. " This isn't right! That wound was huge. You would've died from the wound had i not been there to stop the bleeding. This can't be possible. Three days for a wound that deep?" I've been out for three days? My wounds must have been worse than when she found me.

" One second. I can explain this. Well... sort of."

"Ok what are you then?"

" Now wait a minute i'm human just like you but.." Chris had a hard time trying to explain this. " Remember what it was like before the war."

" Yes. "

" Well did you notice anything different after the war?"

" Other than the creatures? Well there was this weird feeling that i..."

" Had some energy stored in you."

" Well i guess if you want to put it that way."

" There was a change in the world. The weapons they used at the end of the war had never been tested. They didn't know what would happen. They only knew what their theories told them. When they used those weapons not only had they just about wiped out everyone. They had unearthed a power in the earth. it used to be called magic." Kyra had this look of confusion on her face.

" Wait what are you saying? That you healed because of..."

" Magic. its alive and well now." Chris cracked a smile. He wasn't sure if she was going to buy the story but it was the truth. Magic had returned to the earth. And the creatures born of magic had returned as well. "So any questions?"
