A Broken Arm

Boredom

'I guess this is how Helly feels.'

Roy sighed as he watched Amber and Poli raced around the track. He really wanted to join them but he couldn't. His stupid injury kept him from transforming. Jin was waving the flag over and Helly was sorting something at town.

"Amber! Beat him!" Jin yelled. She seemed distracted by the racing... Roy tiptoed away. He likes Jin but there was much he could handle of her. He creeps over to the front of the headquarters taking in the silence.

"Hey Roy!" Roy looked at the road as Terry drove in.

"Hi Terry."

"I heard about your arm. Sorry that happened."

"It's fine. It's Nothing too bad."

Terry rolled his eyes. "Uh huh. Anyway, I got some flowerpots Amber ordered. She said that they were going to the garden. Do you know where she is."

"She's busy right now."

"Oh that's alright. I can come back later."

"I can take them." Roy said just as Terry turned around to leave .

"Uh.. are you sure? They are kind of heavy."

"It's fine. It's my arm that's broken. My hand is fine."

Terry didn't look convinced but nonetheless he opened his cart and Roy looked for the flowerpots.

"It should be in a box that has flowers on it. There are also two big ones that have the labels L1 and L2."

He found them and carefully got them out. The box wasn't too bad (admittedly it hurted a little) and he could carry it out. The bigger ones however put more strain on his arm and he held back a groan as he dragged them out.

"That's it?" Terry looks and nods.

"Yup. Those are what she ordered. Now, you have to be careful with those. They can break."

"I will. Goodbye."

Terry drives away leaving Roy to deal with the pots. He probably should bring them to the garden. It would make sense. He grabbed the box and placed it on the brick counter. Then the bigger pots. He takes a deep breath and lifts it.

It immediately hurts and he drops off. Luckily it was only inches from the ground and it didn't shatter. But it didn't feel good to Roy. He could lift boulders that were even bigger but not a pot!

"Alright.. let's try this again." Roy picks it up again and walks slowly to the garden, trying his best to ignore the pain. His arm was practically shaking from the weight and he could feel his hand wanting to let go. He made it to the garden, dropped it off near the flowerbed and back to get the other one. His arm ached but it was fine. It could handle a little more.

He grabbed the flowerpot and started moving when he heard his name. Looking around, he didn't see anyone but looking up, Helly was driving down as fast as he could.

"Oh, Helly, how did that situation go?" Roy asked stopping. Helly ignored the questions and glared at him.

"Didn't Jin tell you that you shouldn't carry anything heavy? Because you know, you hurt your arm."

"This isn't heavy and it doesn't hurt." Roy reassured.

"Yea. I think your arm says otherwise."

Roy was about to tell him off when his arm fell back all of the sudden. It surprises him and his other hand lets go. Helly catches the flowerpot before it shatters against the ground.

"Yup. I was right. I can handle this, just stay here" Helly responds in a calmer tone.

"...fine.." Roy watches as Helly is able to carry the pot with ease. He puts it down before returning to him.

"See. I can do."

"Yeah.." Roy mumbled unhappily. Helly looks confused.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know it just sucks with this injury. I can't race with Poli and Amber, Jin won't leave me alone and I can't even lift a flowerpot with my arm screaming in pain. I feel so useless." Roy admits.

"I know how you feel. Everytine my tailwind breaks I feel pretty useless. You guys could always do my jobs when I'm out."

"Well I guess I know how you feel now."

"Hey, don't be like that. You got hurt and need to take it easy. If you don't, it'll get worse. Take this from personal experience"

"I mean.. you are right.."

"Yes I am." Helly said proudly and Roy chuckled. He spots a nearby ball and grabs it.

"Do you think you could use your other hand to play ball?" Helly asked. Roy nods. "Alright, here catch." He throws and Roy catches it.

"It's not like racing but hey it's something."

"Yea." Roy smiles. "It is something" And throws back.

It hits Helly in the head
