Roscuroe (Old)

Chapter 28

Three days had passed since the battle in Edmonton. The Lizens involved in the battle were set free and the ones injured were being treated in a medic camp just outside of the hospital. Roscuroe sat by the bed Harley was on, thinking about everything he had done in the past two weeks and waiting for his friend to recover. All the beds were separated by white sheets being used as walls and doors. He was breathing still and coughed up a storm every once in a while. He was currently sleeping like he had been for the majority of the past three days. The right side of his face was burnt, was missing half of his right ear, and had flesh burnt off from his upper jaw to his muzzle that made it look like a huge deep scratch. He was not bleeding from it anymore and Roscuroe could see the bone. He then wondered if Walter was still alive, or if he was killed in the battle. It was possible that it was his helicopter that Pólemos threw down just before the humans surrendered. After a few more minutes of just Roscuroe waiting for his friend to wake up, a nurse walked in with Hannah and with a clipboard and asked "You are Roscuroe, yes?"
Roscuroe stood up and answered "Yes, I am Roscuroe."
"Well, the Prime Minister would like to see you and your friends." The nurse said as Roscuroe's heart rate began to increase.
The Prime Minister wants to see ME? The leader of the humans in this country wants to see ME? Roscuroe asked himself in his thoughts.
"Uh, of course, where is she?" Roscuroe asked the nurse.
"She is in Ottawa, and don't worry, you aren't the only Lizen going to see her other than your friends." The nurse answered Roscuroe's question as Hannah said "I think it will be about a good thing."
Roscuroe looked back at Harley, he didn't want to leave him there, and the egg, he didn't want it to hatch in Ottawa.
"Well, Roscuroe, are you coming?" Hannah asked. Roscuroe hesitated again for a moment before responding "Yes, I must go to see what this is about."
"Good, you had no choice either way. Your friend here will be safe with us, don't worry about him." The nurse said as Roscuroe grabbed the egg from his pouch.
"Can you also take this? I don't want it to hatch in Ottawa." Roscuroe asked the nurse as he tried to hand it to her.
"Of course, we will put it in the nursery where it will be safe." The nurse said as she took the egg and smiled. Roscuroe then followed Hannah out of the big tent and back outside, where he saw Rex, Jax, Max, Galaxy, Ronell, and Patch all waiting for them beside a black van. Roscuroe smiled a little upon seeing his friends again.
"Alright we got the one who started it all, let's go." Hannah told the human who was standing with them, who Roscuroe assumed was the driver. They all got into the van, Roscuroe sat in the back with Hannah and Jax while the others where in the rows ahead. They were given a ride to the airport where they then boarded a private jet. Jax was still a bit nervous about it as they sat down in their seats, but Max calmed him down. Roscuroe sometimes forgot that they were brothers and not really close friends. Just like that, they were off to Ottawa to attend a peace conference along with other Lizens who followed in Roscuroe's footsteps.
