At the hospital, Spider's fingers that were connected with a monitoring device and intravenous catheter flickered gently as he gradually regained consciousness.
Every part of his body was aching and his head kept throbbing with a terrible headache. Everywhere was quiet around him and he wondered if he was finally dead.
Stretching his sore body, he turned his head to examine his surroundings but he was too weak to open his eyes and complete the action. 'Where am I?' he wondered, before drifting off into oblivion again.
Incidentally, the specially assigned nurse who had come around to check on him witnessed the slight movements and wasted no time as she rushed out of the ward to find and inform the chief doctor whom Kathleen had instructed to report on his progress.
Together they went back to the ward and he checked his vitals again. "He has pulled through the crises and would be awake fully before the end of today. Did he say anything when he became conscious?"
