Kokichi's POV

                I felt like passing out after 20 more minutes of walking. My body was aching too much, but I couldn't if anything happened while I was out I would be a burden.
                We had 10 more minutes but that seemed like an eternity. Darn my injured self overdoing it. I could actually see the van now. I got a small nudge from Shuichi. "You okay?" He asked me obviously seeing my pain. "When we get to the van I will be" I replied and he nodded. If I hadn't been so stressed earlier I would at least not have my limbs locking up.
We made it to the van and I sunk to the floor again. After Kiibo helped himiko into the van he walked over to me. "Need a pain reliever?" He asked and I nodded. He walked away and I almost fell asleep from how exhausted I was. I felt the cold needle break my skin and yelped until I couldn't feel anything anymore. Kiibo then helped me into the van.
Since nobody else was in the van I layed down on a row near the others to rest a bit before everyone got back. "So you weren't okay when I asked" Shuichi inquired I nodded. "You know being crushed by a hydrolic press will do that to a person" I remarked.
Maki had stirred from the time we got in the van. She was extremely confused and was in pain. I gave up on resting and started to treat maki's wounds. "The good news is you have a dislocated shoulder.... the bad news is that you have a huge crack in the arm" I stated while wrapping up her arm.
I pulled some a shot out of my bag of medical supplies. "This might hurt a bit" I said before going to press the needle really fast. She yelped a little "what was that for!!?" She yelled. "I needed to numb it so I can relocate your shoulder" I stated. "Alright you might not want to look at this" I added placing my hand on her shoulder the other on the space between the neck and shoulder. She looked away from me. "One.... two..... Three!!" At three I snapped her arm into place.
I heard Shuichi gag a little from behind me. I paid him no mind as I bandaged Makis shoulder and settled it in a sling.
Kiibo popped his head inside the van. "The others are coming" he states. He sat behind me while i sat on the floor next to himiko. Maki, Shuichi, and kaito took our spots in the back.
Once somebody opened the door Kiibo waved "sorry we had to move around a little bit" he said rantaro sat next to Kiibo and keade next to rantaro. "Might I ask why you are on the floor?" Keade asked me. "Oh in case himiko wakes up on the ride back it's easy access.... also because I couldn't get back up my legs locked up" I grumbled causing them to laugh.
As soon as the van started to move himiko stirred. Her face was scrunched in pain and it was obvious why. Her leg was a mangled mess of bones. I immediately grabbed the pain killers I had. I injected the syringe into Himiko's leg just above the injuries.
When she relaxed I got to work on her leg. "Himiko I'm gonna cut the leg of your leggings you fine with that?" I asked and she just nodded. I sighed preparing myself for whatever was under the leggings. I cut off the leg of it a few inches above her injuries.
               I cringed and almost threw up. I pressed down those grim feeling and started to panic over the amount of blood was coming out of her leg now. I pressed my hands on the wound. "Can one of you press on the sounds to clot the bleeding" everyone grimaced at this request. Although Tenko jumped to the front and removed her shirt to do so.
                I looked at her leg and knew instantly I was going to have to cut into it to fix the problem. I pressed harder on the wound before looking up at himikos face. She seemed distance so I put one of my hand next to her ear and in her vision. I snapped loudly gaining her attention.
               We reached the building we were staying in. "Do you happen to have a room I can use for a surgery?" I asked they nodded and we brought himiko to an abandoned medical room. I pressed an oxygen mask over himikos face. I only then realized that Tenko has followed me.
                 She was still clotting the blood. I lightly pushed her away and injected her with a blood thinner. The bleeding stopped almost completely. "Tenko please leave" I stated. She was hesitant but left.
                I sighed preparing for this, and cut open the skin over the injury. I grimaced before quickly getting to work on moving her leg back into shape.
              At the end I gave her another pain shot before making sure she was stable enough for me to leave. I was really exhausted now. I heard the door open. "Is it over?" Tenko asked. I turned around it must have been a sight to see. I was covered in himikos blood. "Yes Tenko it-" I started before everything went sideways and the floor rose up to meet me.

Shuichi's POV

               It had been over an hour since kokichi kicked Tenko out. She had just opened the door and asked if he was done when she yelled for us. The door was wide open and Tenko was with kokichi who was unconscious on the floor.
               Kiibo pushes pats me and runs up to the two. He and Tenko had a quick conversation before Kiibo picked up kokichi and started to walk out. "Where are you going?" I asked "to get at least some of the blood off of him" he replied.
