The Eclipse 🐺

Chapter Fifteenth: Healers

The nurses had their hands full because of a 10-car pile up, and people were being rerouted to the Beacon Hill hospital from downtown. I had offered my assistance at the hospital, though I wasn't a qualified Doctor, I did learn about medicine and the human body. Plus, I was a nurse in WWI and WWII.

Times had changed but I kept up-to-date with medicine. I see Melissa holding onto a woman's stomach as blood poured from it. The reception of the hospital was jammed packed with different patients. Melissa wondered over to the main desk, as I wrapped a bandage around a male patient's arm, as he had a gash on it, not too deep.

As I finished, I turn around to see Scott talking to his mother, I still don't think she knew I was a Witch. A women came up to her asking for something for the pain, but because she wasn't a doctor she couldn't give her any. Scott seemed to follow the brown haired woman, and sat next to her, using his ability to take a little of her pain away, but it was enough to relive her.

"Someone... Someone help me!" Ethan's unforgettable voice rang out in the entrance, making me cock me head to him. "I need help!" He was holding Danny up as he was having trouble breathing.

Scott and Melissa rushes over to Ethan and Danny, as they carefully bring him to a seat. "Okay, gentle, gentle, gentle!" Melissa states as they put Danny in a chair but screams as pain shot through him.

Scott pulls Ethan to the side to talk to him, as I help Melissa with Danny. She checks her his breathing, as I look at him over as it was clear he was in pain.  "This is not good," Melissa sounded scared for Danny, making me scared as well. "His larynx has shifted to the side. I think it's a tension pneumothorax," Suddenly, Danny jolts up and throws creamy goods all over the floor.

Luckily, I had stepped to the side just in time. "Mistletoe," I spoke as I looked at the little creamy-white balls on the floor. We quickly got Danny on a gurney and wheeled him to a space for patients, Danny was moaning all the way there, but not in a good way.

"Can you two please go back to the waiting room?" Melissa states to the boys as I was helping in the hospital. We had parked Danny in a free space in the room.

"Where are the nurses and the doctors? Where is everyone?" Ethan states as he wondered where they all were.

"It's a full house tonight. They're tending to other patients. I had to phone Alice here to help, as I remember Scott says she could help," Melissa states as she did phone me to help her.

"Okay. Well, Mom, how can we help?" Scott asks, wanting to help to save Danny's life.

"Honey, you can't. His lung is collapsed. His heart is being pushed against his chest cavity now," Melissa replied to his son.

"He's gonna die, isn't he?" Scott states clearly scared for Danny, but he wasn't going to die on my watch.

"No, he's not," I state, as Melissa looked around for a moment before looking back at the boys.

"Scott, you grab the tape. You grab those scissor and cut his shirt open," she gave orders to the boys, as she went to a draw and pulled out a long-ass needle. Ethan instead just rips his shirt open.

Danny began to gasp for air, without really thinking I grab hold of his hand in mine. "Asinta Mulaf Hinto, Sho Bala," I mumbled under my breath as the pain that emitted from Danny began to lessen but it wasn't a enough to keep the whole pain away. I see Scott and Ethan look at me as they would have probably heard a spell that I was performing.

Melissa acted quickly as she began to feel around on his chest for a point so she can poke - well more like plunge - the needle in. Within seconds, she found the spot and forced the needle into Danny's chest. She lifts a vale up releasing the air and pulling some liquid out of Danny. He inhales sharply before exhaling with ease. "Okay, here we go," she pulls out the syringe along with the big-ass needle. As I dropped my hand, to release him.
