The Adventures of Blackwing 2: Saving Our Time

Chapter 29: Let's end this madness

I followed Yuto downstairs to see Trey on the ground, severely injured.

"Oh my God! What happened?!" I said kneeling next to him.

"I-I ran after you guys to t-try and convince you to c-come back... H-He appeared out of nowhere..." Trey said weakly.

I stood up and turned to Yuto. "Grab some bandages! I'll see how much I can get him healed."

Yuto nodded and ran towards the bathroom. "Alito! I need you and Vector to try and help me!" I said.

The two of them kneeled next to Trey and looked at all the wounds he had. But the thing that terrified me the most was the many deep scratches on his back.

"Zueki! It isn't working!" Vector said.

My eyes widened as I realized these were from Don Thousand, not Hawkmoth or a stone soldier.

"Yugo! Go grab a towel from the upstairs bathroom!" I said.

Yugo ran upstairs as Yuto came back with the first aid kit.

I opened the kit and looked through it, trying to find the peroxide. Just as I found it, Yugo came down with the towel.

I quickly used the towel to soak up some of the blood, so I could see every scratch. "Zelena! Lexie! Valerie! Dalia! Stand guard! We don't know if Don Thousand is near or not!" I said, removing the towel.

I saw each individual cut on Trey's back, and they looked pretty serious.

"Okay. Trey, I'm going to clean the cuts right now. It will hurt, but I promise it'll be okay." I said.

Trey nodded as more tears fell down his face.

"Someone get Quinton on the phone." I said, foreshadowing what might happen.

I took a dropper and put a few drops of peroxide on each cut, causing Trey to cry out in pain.

"Zueki! I got him!" Yusei said, coming over with his phone.

"Good. Quinton! You there?" I asked, putting more peroxide on the cuts.

"Yes, what's wrong?" He asked.

"Trey's hurt! Don Thousand attacked him on his way here, and I need your help with comforting him!" I said.

"A-Alright. Let me get Quattro." Quinton said.

"Yusei, these cuts are pretty deep. You're a doctor, would you advise stitching the wounds up?" I asked.

Yusei looked at the cuts. "Yeah. They look pretty serious. Unfortunately, I don't think we have anything to stitch them up." He said.

"I mean, I have a sewing needle and there's some surgical thread in the first aid kit from a hospital stay. Would that work?" I asked.

"Well, seeing as it's our only option, yes. Do you have any painkillers, hand sanitizer and gloves?" Yusei asked.

"In the cabinet in the kitchen." I said, running upstairs.

I quickly grabbed my sewing needles and took them downstairs. Yusei had sanitized his hands and put on gloves. I gave him the sewing needle, and he sanitized it before threading it.

I then took the bottle of Tylenol that Yusei grabbed from the cabinet. Hey, not ideal painkillers, but it's all we had.

I took two out and grabbed a water bottle from the fridge, then helped Trey take the medicine.

"I-I'm sorry about this Zueki..." Trey apologized.

"No, no, no. This isn't your fault Trey. I'm willing to help anyone who's hurt, and right now, that's you. Don't feel bad. It's okay." I said, brushing the bangs out of Trey's face.
