Marcus' eyes were barely open, his body shaking from the early stages of shock. He was vaguely aware that he was probably dying, and that from the sounds of things others were in a similar condition. He didn't notice Caitie walking up to him until her soft hand was on his head, and a sad thought came into his mind: the one time she'd touch him in kindness was the time he'd die, when their'd be nothing of him left to remember it. As he listened to her soothing voice, it became an effort for him to keep his eyes open, and so he closed them knowing that it would almost certainly going to be the last time he saw anything. He awoke only a few seconds later, and he knew that something had changed...he wasn't bleeding anymore, and the pain was with him. When you were near death, no one ever said how much the pain disappeared; those people had clearly never been in that situation.
Caitie's hand wa still on his head though, and she was still close; somehow that made it all bareable. Without thought, he raised his head to hers slowly, and gently kissed her cheek.

Again, things got...heavy, and it was easier to lie their, moving hurt anyway, better to lie their and relax. He wondered what was wrong with him now, but soon stopped bothering: what would be the problem should he die?
If he went to heaven things might change for him: he might do things that other people did. He might have birthday presents, he might have friends, a family that loved him...maybe he'd finally find out what a 'hug' was, or 'love,' what it meant for someone to care about him. In the end though, he knew that if he died he wouldn't be bothering the people around him anymore, or making his parents disappointed all the time...as he felt somebody pulling him somewhere he smiled weakly, and in the happiest moment of his short life, closed his eyes for what he believed and hoped would be his final time.
Gleen's field doctors had arrived though, and they were going to spoil Marcus' dreams of an easy death. One of them stunned him, though it hardly seemed necisary, before cutting away the scarring on his wound and properly healing his internal bleeding with intricate spellwork. After a few minutes of work Marcus' body was back to new, and they left him lying with a pillow under his head on a bedroll to recover.
He awoke to find himself not in heaven, or in hell. He was still their, surrounded by people...healed. Even when it was death he wanted, he couldn't have it, like when he wanted love or friendship. Someone always mattered more or simply wished to hurt him further. Hoping that nobody was around him, he lay their, crying softly.

Time didn't really move for Marcus now, not in a way he could care about anyway. He just lay their as the tears slowly rolled down his cheek with no one caring...but why would they? Noone had cared for him before, when he was ill it was him that had had to work out what was wrong with him. When he was in pain it was him that had to find the right pills...when someone had hurt himit was him that was blamed. Noone cared, and they never would.
Someone was looking in his direction, and he turned his head an almost imperceptible distance to get a better view. He just wanted to be alone, couldn't they see it?
He listened to what she was saying, and realised...she must be an idiot. It was Rachel, someone him and his 'fiends' hadn't gotten on with, she probably wanted to hurt his feelings but he didn't much care. He was empty...he didn't really have any feelings.
"Am I OK?" he asked softly. "No. That wolf didn't kill me."

The girl's face turned red as Marcus pecked her on the cheek. She wasn't exactly expecting that to happen.
What did he have to go and do that for? Caitie thought as she looked away, while Henry began his joking tirade against their classmate. Caitie knew her patch job wasn't the best, of course, but it was all she could think of at the time. Before long the medics arrived and whisked the wounded away, leaving Caitie and those who could manage alone. Even if she wanted to see how he was doing, the authorities made it almost impossible as they tried to figure what happened, sequestering the students away.
The young witch folder her arms across her chest.
What a drag she thought, looking over to Henry.
"So, what now?"
