Quinn's dark vision started to turn to color, a small sting on her back woke her up. She started squirming in the plush bed, not sure where she is. All she knew was she was laying on her stomach and on a soft bed, nothing else. Suddenly a soft voice called out to her.
"Quinn, calm down, you're alright." The voice seemed to be male, and slightly familiar.
Quinn twisted her head and saw a pair of green eyes and black hair, Jett. She looked around the room and saw the sign outside that said 'Hospital Unit'. She breathed a sigh of relief, happy to see a familiar face and place.
(Hey that rhymed!)
"It seems you took quite a beating, never would have guessed you'd end up here." Jett said with a stupid looking smirk of his face. Quinn gave an offended look and twisted her head back away from him.
"Hey! I was just joking! No need to get offended!" He said quickly. Not wanting to upset her. Jett was wearing a white shirt with the symbol for the hospital on it, in his hands were an impressive looking first aid kit. On his back was his katanna strapped tightly. Those intricate designs on his weapon were just as confusing as his personality.
Quinn forgot he sometimes volunteers as a nurse in the hospital unit, she assumed he would fighting like the rest of the soldiers.
"What are you doing here anyways, why are you taking care of me when the battle is still going on?" Quinn questioned.
"The enemy retreated! We're safe for now but those bastards will be back!" Jett said enthusiastically.
Quinn rolled on her back but immediately regretted it. She winced when the sheets touched her bandages, she closed her brown eyes in pain. Jett quickly sat her up and used many pillows to support her back, she then got a glance at the other side of her bed, she saw Emil peacefully sleeping on a small wooden perch next to her bed. She smiled at her winged friend, she looked on her night stand and saw Emil's armor carefully folded. Jett noticed Quinn looking at Emil.
"Yeah, Emil stayed with you all night. He refused to leave your side." Jett said in a gentle tone, catching Quinn's attention.
"Well where's Killian? He must be somewhere on the base." Quinn asked.
"Oh! He's with general. Integrating the those prisoners you captured!" Jett said smiling.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Where is your base!?" General Cecil stated angrily. She getting real tired of all their fake answers. Those prisoners keep up that act. It won't end pretty.
"I'm going to ask you one more time.... Where is your base!" Cecil shouted.
"We ain't going to tell ya!" One of the prisoners shouted back with a slight accent. Cecil, obviously done with their B.S. slapped her hand to her forehead in aspiration.
"*sigh* Fine! If you three are going to be like that." Cecil then snapped her fingers, Killian then appeared behind one of the prisoners growling. They looked terrified.
"Alright now, where is your base?" General Cecil questioned with a slight smirk.
"FINE!! We'll tell you! Just lay off the mutt!" One of the prisoners stated clearly scared that a humongous wolf appeared out of nowhere from behind them.
"Perfect!" Cecil said now with a full smirk.
