13. It wasn't me!

13. It wasn't me!

Walking beside the lady, I watch her closely. She doesn’t seem to have fake hair, but it shines under the street lanterns. Every movement she makes causes ripples to flow through her hair. Her flawless platinum pink hair seemed to hold endless volume, as vast as the sea. Wilbur always said that I should visit the sea or ocean once. He said that the water just keeps on going without end. The lady’s hair is just like that, no matter how her hair swayed and swung, there would be more behind it. Restraining myself from trying to grab it, Continue to observe as we walk to the hospital.

Aside from her hair, almost everything else was also unusual for a human. Her lips, luscious and deep, taking a deep shade of purple. Her sparkling eyes excessively shallow and filled with luminescent striations. She almost seemed to look through things with her eyes. Her nose should have been her most normal feature, but she had some sort of metal ring going through it. Her delicate looking ears contained several ornaments piercing her skin. Checking the rest of her body, I find more of the metal ornaments on her belly button and on her belt. I think her skin is normal, but the shade of green makes it look almost sickly. Even worse are her fingers, they’re so thin and long. With my current strength, they would fall off with a poke. Her nails also took an unhealthy shade of blue, probably from oxygen deficiency. The most baffling aspect about her is her clothes. Her top only covered her chest and some of her sides and her bottom showed almost all of her thighs.

Just which part of her get up made her useful? The lady glances at me in annoyance and taps Regius, “Hey, your girl has been staring at me for some time. Can you tell her I’m not going to take you?” Regius glances momentarily and says, “Knowing her, she’s probably not thinking about you that way. Right Winowna?” Beaming I say, “Of course! He’s my partner so he can’t be anyone else’s! I was just thinking that you look pretty useless. Besides your shiny hair, I don’t see anything that suggests that you can do anything better.” Now if I can only figure out how her hair does that, we can get rid of her. No need for useless tagalongs!

Mildly offended, She says, “I’m not here to help either of you, just to make sure you don’t hurt bystanders.” Nodding my head in understanding, I silently vow to cause destruction before I go. Something about her just makes me mad! If anything, it’s her perfect hair! “We’re here,” Regius says. Looking up, I see a grey and brown building with several large high-quality window panes. The windows here might not be colorful and moving, but they sure are clean. Not even a spec of impurity can be seen. Walking to the side of the hospital. Regius opens a rip, “Get it! It leads just through the wall.” Going in first, I find myself in some kind of personal waiting room. A large seat covered in cheap paper dominates the center of the room. There is a sink with many sanitizing instruments and a few that I don’t recognize. The left wall is full of things I don’t understand and the right wall is full of colorful posters depicting some ugly images.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

Appearing behind me, the lady and Regius look around before approaching the door. “Why couldn’t we just go through the front?” I ask, confused. “Simple sweetheart, we have no reason to be visiting him, and he probably has lookouts.” the lady snidely remarks. Pouting, I say, “I don’t really like you. You don’t seem to like me. At least you could tell me your name.” Pausing, the lady scratches her cheek and smugly says, “My bad, I didn’t think you of all people would care. You can call me Yue.” More comfortable already, I say, “Well, I do have a reason to visit him! I put him in here so I should visit him to apologize right?”

Gasping, Regius hugs me and shakes me back and forth, “You're a genius Winowna! Yue and I will wait from a distance and follow you to him. You should go to the front desk and ask where the target is.” Disoriented from all the shaking, I push him off. “Okay, okay. Don’t shake me again.” Exiting the small room, I walk towards the entrance where I see the front desk. Waiting in line, I casually glance around and find Regius and Yue sitting on some dingy looking seats. The seats didn’t even have pillows on them. Moving forward in line, I jump when someone sudden puts a hand on my shoulder. Turning around, I see a person in a white trenchcoat like thing breathing heavily. “You’re finally here! Follow me, the patient needs you right away.” he breathlessly says.

Looking back at Regius and Yue, I see Regius being held down. Giving them my best smile and a thumbs up I motion for the guy in the white trenchcoat to lead the way. Passing several rooms we enter a larger one with several people inside. In the center was a person with his insides exposed. Pinching my nose, I follow the guy to the patient. “Please, save him. We’ve tried everything, but his body refuses to accept any treatment. He just expels all the fluids we give him and violently vomits all the pills.” Bewildered, I get closer to the patient. Yep, he was definitely bleeding. Some of the squiggly things in his stomach seem broken and he’s bleeding in some weird places.

Turning back to the guy who led me here, I ask, “Yea, I can see he’s definitely in a bad condition. What do you want me to do?” Stumbling over his words, he hesitantly says, “I don’t know, maybe stop the bleeding. Also, fix the ruptured organs and ulcers. Also. Maybe, restore the dead skin and undo the incision we made?” Thinking about it, I realize that it sounded like he wanted me to fix the patient completely. “You mean you want me to fix all of the issues? My self? After you messed up?” I yell at the incompetent healer. Close to tears, he murmurs, “Please, it wasn’t me.” Thinking I heard him wrong, I ask, “Say that again! Louder, please!.”

On the verge of running out, he starts to talk, but I stop him. Leaning closer I motion for him to continue. “It wasn’t me. Please miss, can you just save the patient?” he says even quieter. Hearing that it wasn’t him, I beam and say, “Okay!”
