-Fred 104-
Fred continually drifted in and out of consciousness, seeing the inside of a transport ship, the open sky, then a hospital's white ceiling, then he felt the grogginess that came with anesthesia, then his eyes closed and he slipped into a dreamless sleep.
Fred's eyes slipped open a bit, and he returned to the land of the living, he heard a nurse and a doctor conversing, "I hate having to deal with the academy's trainees," the nurse muttered.
The doctor voiced her agreement, "I know, there were three kids that I had to spend over an hour on each digging shrapnel out of because they set off a grenade right in their own faces, and they were just wearing those stupid battle skirts that give little protection ever since the tournament."
Fred was still a bit out of it, and his drug addled mind decided it was a good idea to join the conversation despite the fact that a large portion of his chest cavity was open and they were actively pulling glass shards out of his ribcage. He mumbled, "Oh man, I hate when tha happens, Sam did tha a few months ago essept--I--I think he used a nuke or--or somethin," The nurse's face was absolutely priceless, and it was the last thing he saw as he felt more sedative being administered almost immediately.
-Dr. Jade Honeydew-
Dr. Jade Honeydew was at the grocery a few floors down from her apartment in the lower city of Atlas when someone in a crisp white suit appeared behind her, a military issue suit, "Dr. Honeydew," he addressed her, "You are requested at upper city hospital A-2 and I am to escort you there immediately,"
Jade turned around as she grabbed a bushel of some leafy vegetable from her basket and waved it in the man's face, "First I will be putting these," she used the vegetable to gesture at the rest of her groceries for the week that she had just paid for, "to my fridge, I'm not paying for two weeks of groceries when I only need one because the first got spoiled because you rushed me up there to some cadets who blew themselves up again,"
The man's impassive face broke for a second, clearly stressed, "Ma'am please, we need to get going now,"
Jade looked at her watch, stalling for time, a small little ting in her head, and she was set, "Ensign Castleton, I will be heading up to my apartment, and if you attempt to stop me I will report to your command that you are unfit for duty due to your crippling anxiety that is set off by Ursa and uncomfortable social situations,"
The man froze and color completely drained from his face and he spoke, his voice losing the calm composure it had just seconds before, "of—of course, I'll help you carry your stuff ma'am,"
Jade smiled, which she retrospectively realized probably set the man, boy really, more on edge despite what she attempted, and shook her head, "No thanks, you'd just get in the way, I'll be back in about five minutes." She pushed past him, and he seemed to shrink back into the wall.
Four minutes and fifty four seconds later Jade came back down the stairs while throwing on a coat and putting on a backpack.
The ensign had regained his composure, and his eyes flicked to her waist, "do you know how to use that?" He gestured to the holster filled with a large suppressed service pistol that she was covering with her long coat.
"Would you believe me if I said no?" Jade said, raising an eyebrow.
Half an hour later Jade walked into the hospital and was quickly directed to her new patient, she walked into the room and looked at her patient, the boy was tall, really tall, blonde, and highly muscular, but the face of the boy looked considerably younger than the rest of him.
Jade could feel her semblance working in her head as she did an inspection of any possible wounds. She saw long healed scars, some clearly from large surgeries, others from gunshots or stabs or various other things.
