MSMF Prompt #10: Falling

The bright star high above the Super Robot suddenly dimmed. Chiro noticed finally that he had been squinting as he looked up. Then he noticed the blur of yellow as it sped toward him. He tried to gauge where she would land and ran to near the edge of the Robot's shoulder. He got there just in time to catch an unconscious Nova.

Chiro carried her carefully into Gibson's lab, his heart sinking as he realized he breathing was very shallow. Gibson walked in the lab right behind him and activated a healing tube.

"Here, Chiro, allow me," the science officer said.

"No, Gibson, I've got her." Chiro gently laid Nova's sleeping form in the tube, squeezing her hand before stepping back and allowing Gibson to close and raise the tube.

Sparx walked in then, as the tube locked into its vertical position. "How is she?" he asked quietly.

"She'll be all right, I should think. She will need time to heal. That was an enormous amount of energy she created up there," Gibson said.

"She saved Shuggazoom," Chiro said.

"She saved us all," Sparx corrected him. He stepped up to the tube. "Hang in there Nova. You'll be fine," he whispered, before whirling around and quickly escaping the lab.
