in the City. He’s like an angel, healing people with his weird energy and different language. Danny comes in with a doctor. I turn the chair and nod to the doctor and throw chin to Danny.
“I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner, I had an emergency to deal with downstairs. You are her only family?” He looks like he doesn’t believe it.
“Yes. When will you wake her up?”
“We’ve already taken her off the medication. We don’t actually wake her up. The swelling is down, now it’s up to her body when she wakes up.” Fuck. He’s not very comforting. Where the fuck do they find these people? “What are they doing? There are only supposed to be two people at a time visiting.”
“They’re Native. They do everything in threes. Right now they’re calling on the spirits to heal her.” Danny says, like it’s normal. I smile, watching the doctor’s face. “I’d move them but the little guys are fuckin ninjas and they’d probably kick my ass. One I could take but I’m not sure about both.”
I laugh. Cloud laughs behind me. “He isn’t kidding. The fuckin kids are freaks of nature that don’t have a problem taking a grown man down.” I’m still fuckin laughing. The doctor doesn’t know what to say to that.
“Besides the coma, what else is wrong with her?” I ask still smiling. He’s looking from Danny to Cloud. There’s no missing Cloud is Indian and Danny has a scar across his face and a patch over his eye. They’re both six three. Sally is standing with her arms crossed and a frown on her face. She's not impressed with the fuckin doctor either.
He finally looks at me like he's fuckin bored. “She has some bruising on the inside of her leg but that's about it. There’s scrapes on her outer leg and arm. She’s healing normally in those areas but she’ll be sore for a while. Our main concern was the swelling and concussion. If she had had a helmet on, this could have been avoided. You people think you're invincible until something happens then you expect us to fix you in a day.” He says it like an accusation.
“What the fuck? She did have a helmet on. A fuckin truck boxed them in while another slammed into them gunning the engine. It was attempted murder, asshole.” Danny isn’t raising his voice but it sounds more dangerous because it is low. He has a fuckin fierce look on his face.
The doctor takes a step back and puts his hands up. “I’m sorry, she must have been hit hard to get a concussion with the helmet.” He still doesn't believe him. Fuckin guy.
“The fuckin helmet is split. It was sent with her so you would know what she went through. What the fuck kind of hospital is this? Our President is arguing with nurses so Bob can sit by her and you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about.” Danny is pissed.
“Again, I’m sorry. I never saw the helmet.”
“Bob, Jeremy says she just needs to rest. She’ll be fine.” Tess says, looking down. Fuckin doctor. She’s nervous and jumps right into fuckin slave mode, I reach for her hand and give it a squeeze. Jeremy comes to my side and puts his head on my shoulder. I lift him onto my lap, keeping him to the right side. He lays back and watches the doctor with his hand on Tess’.
Cloud comes back from the doorway. “Jamie has Jake meeting us here. He made arrangements for them to be transferred to the City. Mitch’s doctor will see Bob there and they have another doctor waiting for Amanda.” He looks over at the doctor like he's talking to a Prospect. “The only thing you’re needed for is discharge paperwork. They’ll be leaving in one hour. I’ll need clearance to land the Baxter's chopper on the roof. If you can’t get me that I’ll have Jamie get it. He’s a little busy and probably wouldn’t like another interruption since he has to get everything coordinated for them to be
