Blue Mountain State Heat Exhaustion Episode Novels & Stories

"The scans show a very... aggressive progression of your state. Have you been following the plan I gave you?" My heart pounded as I bit my lip. "I've been eating more." "But not enough." Dr. Mountainheart sighed. "I can understand if you can't financially take that on. Black Moon—" "I'm not a member of Black Moon." He paused, frowning and looking at me. He looked at Arwen for a moment, and she set her job. "He's from Blue Moon." Dr. Mountainheart grimaced. "I can see… how that would make things more difficult."

Another wave hits no matter how much I take a new one still hurt like hell I take a deep breath then went down again "Grandpa I'm tired please" I cry falling flat on the ground I was panting like a wild animal my whole body ached why didn't I just go home like I was instructed to I clean my face with my gown which was already soaked I was tired,in pain, exhausted dehydrated name it After a while I realized Pa hasn't responded I haven't felt a shock wave six laps now looking in his direction he was in deep meditation I've seen him in this state before but I had to check for sure.

He offered a reassuring smile that softened the clinical edges of the emergency ward. “Ms. Ventura, try not to worry too much about your sister,” he said, his tone calm and measured. “From my examination and the initial tests, I don’t see any serious underlying cause for her fainting. It appears to be a combination of exhaustion and dehydration—likely aggravated by the intense summer heat. We’re in the middle of April, and the temperatures have been unusually high this week.”

“Is that Blair? What the hell happened?” I brushed past him and entered the office, my strides quickly eating up the distance. “She’s having difficulty breathing, hacking coughs and it looks like she’s got a fever.” I told him as I settled her on the couch. This felt like deja vu, I could still remember the night she’d passed out in my arms from near hypothermia.

It was like she was glued to my body, and I liked it that way. “Just get the car,” I ordered. Blaze nodded and ran off. I grabbed my shirt and covered her with it. I had so many questions, and most of them weren’t even for her. Blaze came back, and I carried her to my SUV. I sat in the back seat with her. She trembled violently, and panic kicked in. “She’s shivering,” I said. “That water’s freezing,” Blaze commented. “No one’s ever gotten hyperthermia from it,” I replied.

He was as light as a paper and as I turned him, I found his face red, eyes closed, a trail of tears left on his cheeks. “Blue?” I placed my hand on his chest and shook, getting no response. No. No. No. He was too light, his head rolling back without support. In a panic I sat him down and picked up his arm to drop it, watching it fly back to the bed loosely. “Blue,” I nearly screamed as I called to him. He was too hot, his body weak. I jumped from the bed, running to pick up my phone only to drop it. I ran to Blue again.

"You’re just giving me the narrative bridge I was missing, Ellsy. It’s brilliant. Seriously, you’re saving my life right now. Let’s finish this section, and I promise, I’ll buy you the biggest burger in town." Before I can figure out how to respond, the heat starts. It hits me exactly the way it hits when I push too hard in the final lap of a race. It starts at the base of my spine, a sudden, violent spike of temperature that flares outward, turning my blood to battery acid. I gasp, dropping my hands from the table to grip my knees. The exhaustion. The lack of sleep. The stress of the showcase. I’ve been running my body on fumes for two weeks, ignoring the toll the rejected bond is taking on

She hadn’t seen Mark, the oldest of the famous billionaire Roberts siblings, and nobody seemed to know where he was. The only thing she had gotten out of the day was a dizzy spell when she went to the resort gym for her usual hard workout that morning. It was clearly from not being used to the high altitude in the Colorado mountains. Great. She had to slow down her workout and drink more water. She couldn’t afford to be weak now. At least she was already feeling better, so her body must have been adjusting to the thin air.

That much I knew. “You’re awake,” she said softly, moving to the side of the bed. “Try not to move too much. Your body’s been through a lot.” I stared at her, voice dry and raspy. “Where... am I?” “You’re in Black Mountain territory.” Black Mountain. The name slammed into me like a punch. I tried to sit up again, but pain lanced through my side, and I winced. “No sudden movements,” she said, checking something on a clipboard. “You’ve been unconscious for a little over two days. The infection was bad. Your wound reopened again. We had to close it fully and monitor for fever. You almost didn’t make it.”
